Exodus 9:13-19 ▼

13 And YHWH said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and stand before the face of Pharaoh and say to him: Thus says YHWH God of the Hebrews, ‘Send out My people, that they may serve Me.

14 For at this time I am sending all My plagues to your heart, and on your servants, and on your people, in order that you may know that there is none like Me in all the earth.

15 For now I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with the pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth.

16 But indeed for this reason I have caused you to stand, in order to show you My power, and in order to proclaim My name in all the earth.

17 Still you are exalting yourself over My people, so as not to send them out.

18 Behold, about this time tomorrow I am raining down very heavy hail, such as has not been like it in Egypt from the day it was founded until now.

19 And now, send—have your livestock brought in, and all that you have in the field; every man and beast that is found in the field and is not gathered to the house—the hail shall come down on them, and they shall die.’”
