18 This time tomorrow I will cause a heavy hailstorm, such as Egypt has never known in all its history.
19 Now give orders for your livestock and everything else you have in the open to be put under shelter. Hail will fall on the people and animals left outside unprotected, and they will all die.’ ”
20 Some of the king's officials were afraid because of what the Lord had said, and they brought their slaves and animals indoors for shelter.
21 Others, however, paid no attention to the Lord's warning and left their slaves and animals out in the open.
22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Raise your hand towards the sky, and hail will fall over the whole land of Egypt — on the people, the animals, and all the plants in the fields.”
23 So Moses raised his stick towards the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the ground. The Lord sent
24 a heavy hailstorm, with lightning flashing to and fro. It was the worst storm that Egypt had ever known in all its history.
