¹³Then the Lord said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning and go to the king of Egypt. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go to worship me. ¹⁴If you don’t, this time I will punish you, your officers, and your people, with all my power. Then you will know there is no one in the whole land like me. ¹⁵By now I could have used my power and caused a terrible disease that would have destroyed you and your people from the earth. ¹⁶But I have let you live for this reason: to show you my power so that my name will be talked about in all the earth. ¹⁷You are still against my people and do not want to let them go. ¹⁸So at this time tomorrow, I will send a terrible hailstorm, the worst in Egypt since it became a nation. ¹⁹Now send for your animals and whatever you have in the fields, and bring them into a safe place. The hail will fall on every person or animal that is still in the fields. If they have not been brought in, they will die.’ ” ²⁰Some of the king’s officers respected the word of the Lord and hurried to bring their slaves and animals inside. ²¹But others ignored the Lord’s message and left their slaves and animals in the fields.
