Exodus 9 (WEBP)

[1] Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
[2] For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,
[3] behold, Yahweh’s hand is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.
[4] Yahweh will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel.” ’ ”
[5] Yahweh appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow Yahweh shall do this thing in the land.”
[6] Yahweh did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.
[7] Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn’t let the people go.
[8] Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
[9] It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt.”
[10] They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal.
[11] The magicians couldn’t stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
[12] Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.
[13] Yahweh said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
[14] For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
[15] For now I would have stretched out my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;
[16] but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth,
[17] because you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won’t let them go.
[18] Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
[19] Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. The hail will come down on every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn’t brought home, and they will die.” ’ ”
[20] Those who feared Yahweh’s word among the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
[21] Whoever didn’t respect Yahweh’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
[22] Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
[23] Moses stretched out his rod toward the heavens, and Yahweh sent thunder and hail; and lightning flashed down to the earth. Yahweh rained hail on the land of Egypt.
[24] So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
[25] The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
[26] Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
[27] Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. Yahweh is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
[28] Pray to Yahweh; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.”
[29] Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to Yahweh. The thunders shall cease, and there will not be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is Yahweh’s.
[30] But as for you and your servants, I know that you don’t yet fear Yahweh God.”
[31] The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley had ripened and the flax was blooming.
[32] But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.
[33] Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to Yahweh; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.
[34] When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
[35] The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go, just as Yahweh had spoken through Moses.

Young’s Literal Translation

Exodus 9 (YLT)

[1] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Go in unto Pharaoh, and thou hast spoken unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve me,
[2] for, if thou art refusing to send away, and art still keeping hold upon them,
[3] lo, the hand of Jehovah is on thy cattle which are in the field, on horses, on asses, on camels, on herd, and on flock-a pestilence very grievous.
[4] ‘And Jehovah hath separated between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and there doth not die a thing of all the sons of Israel’s;
[5] and Jehovah setteth an appointed time, saying, To-morrow doth Jehovah do this thing in the land.’
[6] And Jehovah doth this thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt die, and of the cattle of the sons of Israel not one hath died;
[7] and Pharaoh sendeth, and lo, not even one of the cattle of Israel hath died, and the heart of Pharaoh is hard, and he hath not sent the people away.
[8] And Jehovah saith unto Moses and unto Aaron, ‘Take to you the fulness of your hands of soot of a furnace, and Moses hath sprinkled it towards the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh,
[9] and it hath become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and it hath become on man and on cattle a boil breaking forth with blains, in all the land of Egypt.’
[10] And they take the soot of the furnace, and stand before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkleth it towards the heavens, and it is a boil with blains, breaking forth, on man and on beast;
[11] and the scribes have not been able to stand before Moses, because of the boil, for the boil hath been on the scribes, and on all the Egyptians.
[12] And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses.
[13] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve Me,
[14] for, at this time I am sending all My plagues unto thy heart, and on thy servants, and on thy people, so that thou knowest that there is none like Me in all the earth,
[15] for now I have put forth My hand, and I smite thee, and thy people, with pestilence, and thou art hidden from the earth.
[16] ‘And yet for this I have caused thee to stand, so as to show thee My power, and for the sake of declaring My Name in all the earth;
[17] still thou art exalting thyself against My people-so as not to send them away;
[18] lo, I am raining about this time to-morrow hail very grievous, such as hath not been in Egypt, even from the day of its being founded, even until now.
[19] ‘And, now, send, strengthen thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; every man and beast which is found in the field, and is not gathered into the house-come down on them hath the hail, and they have died.’
[20] He who is fearing the word of Jehovah among the servants of Pharaoh hath caused his servants and his cattle to flee unto the houses;
[21] and he who hath not set his heart unto the word of Jehovah leaveth his servants and his cattle in the field.
[22] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Stretch forth thy hand towards the heavens, and there is hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.’
[23] And Moses stretcheth out his rod towards the heavens, and Jehovah hath given voices and hail, and fire goeth towards the earth, and Jehovah raineth hail on the land of Egypt,
[24] and there is hail, and fire catching itself in the midst of the hail, very grievous, such as hath not been in all the land of Egypt since it hath become a nation.
[25] And the hail smiteth in all the land of Egypt all that is in the field, from man even unto beast, and every herb of the field hath the hail smitten, and every tree of the field it hath broken;
[26] only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel are, there hath been no hail.
[27] And Pharaoh sendeth, and calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith unto them, ‘I have sinned this time, Jehovah is the Righteous, and I and my people are the Wicked,
[28] make ye supplication unto Jehovah, and plead that there be no voices of God and hail, and I send you away, and ye add not to remain.’
[29] And Moses saith unto him, ‘At my going out of the city, I spread my palms unto Jehovah-the voices cease, and the hail is not any more, so that thou knowest that the earth is Jehovah’s;
[30] but thou and thy servants-I have known that ye are not yet afraid of the face of Jehovah God.’
[31] And the flax and the barley have been smitten, for the barley is budding, and the flax forming flowers,
[32] and the wheat and the rye have not been smitten, for they are late.
[33] And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, from the city, and spreadeth his hands unto Jehovah, and the voices and the hail cease, and rain hath not been poured out to the earth;
[34] and Pharaoh seeth that the rain hath ceased, and the hail and the voices, and he continueth to sin, and hardeneth his heart, he and his servants;
[35] and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.
