Exodus 9
1 The Lord told Moses, “Go and speak to Pharaoh. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: Let my people go, so that they can worship me.
And he said Yahweh to Moses go to Pharaoh and you will say to him thus he says Yahweh [the] God of the Hebrews let go people my so they may serve me.
2 If you refuse to let them go and keep holding onto them,
That except [are] refusing you to let [them] go and still you [are] keeping hold on them.
3 I will punish you by bringing a very severe plague on your livestock—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
There! [the] hand of Yahweh [is] about to be on livestock your which [is] in the field on the horses on the donkeys on the camels on the cattle and on the sheep a pestilence heavy very.
4 But the Lord will distinguish between the livestock of the Israelites and the Egyptians, so that none of those belonging to the Israelites will die.’
And he will separate Yahweh between [the] livestock of Israel and between [the] livestock of Egypt and not it will die of all [that belongs] to [the] people of Israel anything.
5 The Lord has set a time, saying, ‘Tomorrow this is what is going to happen here in the country.’”
And he set Yahweh an appointed time saying tomorrow he will do Yahweh the thing this in the land.
6 The following day the Lord did what he had said. All the Egyptians' livestock died, but not a single animal belonging to the Israelites died.
And he did Yahweh the thing this from [the] next day and it died all [the] livestock of Egypt and of [the] livestock of [the] people of Israel not it died one.
7 Pharaoh sent out officials and discovered that not a single one of the Israelites' livestock had died. But Pharaoh was stubborn, and he would not let the people leave.
And he sent Pharaoh and there! not it had died any of [the] livestock of Israel up to one and it was unresponsive [the] heart of Pharaoh and not he let go the people.
8 The Lord told Moses and Aaron, “Go and get some handfuls of soot from a furnace. Then have Moses throw it into the air in front of Pharaoh.
And he said Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron take for yourselves [the] fullness of hands your soot of a furnace and he will sprinkle it Moses the heavens towards to [the] eyes of Pharaoh.
9 It will spread like fine dust over the whole country of Egypt, and open sores will break out on people and animals throughout the land.”
And it will become dust over all [the] land of Egypt and it will become on humankind and on the livestock boil[s] breaking out blisters in all [the] land of Egypt.
10 They got soot from a furnace, and went to see Pharaoh. Moses threw it into the air, and open sores broke out on people and animals.
And they took [the] soot of the furnace and they stood before Pharaoh and he sprinkled it Moses the heavens towards and it became boil[s] blisters breaking out on humankind and on the livestock.
11 The magicians were unable to come and appear before Moses, because they and all the other Egyptians were covered in sores.
And not they were able the magicians to stand before Moses because of the boil[s] for it was the boil[s] on the magicians and on all Egypt.
12 But the Lord gave Pharaoh a stubborn attitude, and he would not listen to them, just as the Lord had told Moses.
And he made strong Yahweh [the] heart of Pharaoh and not he listened to them just as he had said Yahweh to Moses.
13 The Lord told Moses, “Tomorrow morning get up early and go to Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let my people go, so that they can worship me.
And he said Yahweh to Moses rise early in the morning and present yourself before Pharaoh and you will say to him thus he says Yahweh [the] God of the Hebrews let go people my so they may serve me.
14 This time I will direct all my plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you will realize that there is no one like me in all the earth.
For - at the time this I [am] about to send all plagues my to heart your and on servants your and on people your in order that you may know that there not [is] like me in all the earth.
15 By now I could have reached out to strike you and your people with a plague that would have completely destroyed you.
For now I stretched out hand my and I struck you and people your with pestilence and you were destroyed from the earth.
16 However, I have let you live so you can see my power, and that my reputation may be spread throughout the earth.
And but for sake of this I have caused to stand you in order to see you power my and so as to recount name my in all the earth.
17 But in your pride you are still tyrannizing my people, and refuse to let them leave.
Still you [are] exalting yourself on people my to not to let go them.
18 So watch out! About this time tomorrow I will send down the worst hailstorm that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the beginning of its history until now.
Here I [am] about to rain down about this time tomorrow hail heavy very which not it has been like it in Egypt from the day was founded it and until now.
19 So order your livestock and everything you have in the field to be brought inside. Every person and every animal that stays outside and is not brought inside will die when the hail falls on them.’”
And therefore send bring to refuge livestock your and all that [belongs] to you in the field all the humankind and the livestock which it will be found in the field and not it will be gathered the house towards and it will come down on them the hail and they will die.
20 Those of Pharaoh's officials who took seriously what the Lord said rushed to bring their servants and livestock inside.
The [one] fearing [the] word of Yahweh of [the] servants of Pharaoh he made to flee servants his and livestock his into the houses.
21 But those who didn't care what the Lord said left their servants and livestock outside.
And [the one] who not he set heart his to [the] word of Yahweh and he left servants his and livestock his in the field.
22 The Lord told Moses, “Lift your hand towards the sky so that a hailstorm will fall over the whole of Egypt, on people and on animals, and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.”
And he said Yahweh to Moses stretch out hand your to the heavens so may it be hail in all [the] land of Egypt on the humankind and on the livestock and on all [the] vegetation of the field in [the] land of Egypt.
23 Moses held up his staff toward heaven, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and made lightning hit the ground. This is how the Lord rained hail down on Egypt.
And he stretched out Moses staff his to the heavens and Yahweh he gave thunder claps and hail and it went fire [the] ground towards and he rained down Yahweh hail on [the] land of Egypt.
24 As the hail fell it was accompanied by lightning flashing back and forth. The hail that fell was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in the whole of Egypt since the beginning of its history.
And it was hail and fire [was] flashing in [the] middle of the hail heavy very which not it had been like it in all [the] land of Egypt from then it had become a nation.
25 All across Egypt hail hit everything in the fields, both people and animals. It knocked down everything growing in the fields, and stripped every tree bare.
And it struck the hail in all [the] land of Egypt all that [was] in the field from humankind and unto livestock and all [the] vegetation of the field it struck the hail and every tree of the field it shattered.
26 Only in the land of Goshen where the Israelites lived was there no hail.
Only in [the] land of Goshen where [were] there [the] people of Israel not it was hail.
27 Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and told them, “I admit that I sinned this time! The Lord is right, and I and my people are wrong!
And he sent Pharaoh and he summoned Moses and Aaron and he said to them I have sinned this time Yahweh [is] the righteous [one] and I and people my [are] the guilty [ones].
28 Pray to the Lord for us, because there's been more than enough of God's thunder and hail. I will let you leave. You don't need to stay here any longer.”
Pray to Yahweh and [is too] much for being [the] thunder claps of God and [the] hail and I will let go you and not you will increase! to stay.
29 “Once I've left the city, I will pray to the Lord for you,” Moses told him. “The thunder will stop, and there'll be no more hail, so that you will realize that the earth belongs to the Lord.
And he said to him Moses when have gone out I the city I will spread out hands my to Yahweh the thunder claps they will cease! and the hail not it will happen again so that you may know that [belongs] to Yahweh the earth.
30 But I know you and your officials still do not really respect the Lord our God.”
And you and servants your I know that not yet you fear! because of Yahweh God.
31 (The flax and barley were destroyed, because the barley was ripe and the flax was flowering.
And the flax and the barley it was struck for the barley [was] young barley ear[s] and the flax [was] bud.
32 However, the wheat and the spelt were not destroyed because they grow later.)
And the wheat and the spelt not they were struck for [are] late [crops] they.
33 Moses left Pharaoh and went out of the city, and prayed to the Lord. The thunder and hail stopped, and the rainstorm finished.
And he went out Moses from with Pharaoh the city and he spread out hands his to Yahweh and they ceased the thunder claps and the hail and rain not it was poured out [the] earth towards.
34 When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had stopped, he sinned again, and he chose to become stubborn again, along with his officials.
And he saw Pharaoh that it had ceased the rain and the hail and the thunder claps and he repeated to sin and he made heavy heart his he and servants his.
35 Because of his stubborn attitude, Pharaoh would not let the Israelites leave, just as the Lord had predicted through Moses.
And it was strong [the] heart of Pharaoh and not he let go [the] people of Israel just as he had said Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses.
