CHAP. IX. / 1 The murraine of beasts. 8 The plague of boyles, and blaines. 13 His message about the haile. 22 The plague of haile. 27 Pharaoh sueth to Moses, 35 but yet is hardened.

1Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Goe in vnto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrewes, Let my people goe, that they may serue me.Select Exodus 9:1

2For if thou refuse to let them goe, and wilt hold them still,Select Exodus 9:2

3Behold, the hand of the Lord is vpon thy cattell which is in the field, vpon the horses, vpon the asses, vpon the camels, vpon the oxen, and vpon the sheepe: there shall be a very grieuous murraine.Select Exodus 9:3

4And the Lord shall seuer betweene the cattell of Israel, and the cattell of Egypt, and there shall nothing die of all that is the childrens of Israel.Select Exodus 9:4

5And the Lord appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the Lord shall doe this thing in the land.Select Exodus 9:5

6And the Lord did that thing on the morrow; and all the cattell of Egypt died, but of the cattell of the children of Israel died not one.Select Exodus 9:6

7And Pharaoh sent, and beholde, there was not one of the cattell of the Israelites dead. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people goe.Select Exodus 9:7

8And the Lord saide vnto Moses, and vnto Aaron, Take to you handfuls of ashes of the fornace, and let Moses sprinkle it towards the heauen, in the sight of Pharaoh:Select Exodus 9:8

9And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall bee a boyle breaking forth with blaines, vpon man and vpon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt.Select Exodus 9:9

10And they tooke ashes of the fornace, and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it vp toward heauen: and it became a boile breaking forth with blaines, vpon man and vpon beast.Select Exodus 9:10

11And the Magicians could not stand before Moses, because of the boiles: for the boile was vpon the magicians, and vpon all the Egyptians.Select Exodus 9:11

12And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and hee hearkened not vnto them, as the Lord had spoken vnto Moses.Select Exodus 9:12

13And the Lord saide vnto Moses, Rise vp earely in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say vnto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrewes, Let my people goe, that they may serue me.Select Exodus 9:13

14For I will at this time send all my plagues vpon thine heart, and vpon thy seruants, and vpon thy people: that thou mayest knowe that there is none like me in all the earth.Select Exodus 9:14

15For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people, with pestilence, and thou shalt be cut off from the earth.Select Exodus 9:15

16And in very deede, for this cause haue I raised thee vp, for to shewe in thee my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth.Select Exodus 9:16

17As yet exaltest thou thy selfe against my people, that thou wilt not let them goe?Select Exodus 9:17

18Behold, to morrow about this time, I wil cause it to raine a very grieuous haile, such as hath not bene in Egypt, since the foundation thereof euen vntill now.Select Exodus 9:18

19Send therefore now, and gather thy cattell, and all that thou hast in the field: for vpon euery man and beast which shal be found in the field, and shal not bee brought home, the haile shall come downe vpon them, and they shall die.Select Exodus 9:19

20Hee that feared the word of the Lord amongst the seruants of Pharaoh, made his seruants and his cattell flee into the houses.Select Exodus 9:20

21And he that regarded not the word of the Lord, left his seruants and his cattell in the field.Select Exodus 9:21

22And the Lord saide vnto Moses, Stretch forth thine hand toward heauen, that there may be haile in all the land of Egypt, vpon man and vpon beast, and vpon euery herbe of the field, thorowout the land of Egypt.Select Exodus 9:22

23And Moses stretched foorth his rod toward heauen, and the Lord sent thunder and haile, and the fire ranne along vpon the ground, and the Lord rained haile vpon the land of Egypt.Select Exodus 9:23

24So there was haile, and fire mingled with the haile, very grieuous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt, since it became a nation.Select Exodus 9:24

25And the haile smote throughout all the land of Egypt, all that was in the field, both man and beast: and the haile smote euery herbe of the fielde, and brake euery tree of the field.Select Exodus 9:25

26Onely in the land of Goshen where the children of Israel were, was there no haile.Select Exodus 9:26

27And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said vnto them, I haue sinned this time: the Lord is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.Select Exodus 9:27

28Entreat the Lord, (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and haile, and I will let you goe, and ye shall stay no longer.Select Exodus 9:28

29And Moses saide vnto him, Assoone as I am gone out of the citie, I will spread abroad my hands vnto the Lord, and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more haile: that thou mayest know how that the earth is the Lords.Select Exodus 9:29

30But as for thee and thy seruants, I know that ye will not yet feare the Lord God.Select Exodus 9:30

31And the flaxe, and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the eare, and the flaxe was bolled:Select Exodus 9:31

32But the wheat and the rye were not smitten: for they were not growen vp.Select Exodus 9:32

33And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands vnto the Lord: and the thunders and haile ceased, and the raine was not powred vpon the earth.Select Exodus 9:33

34And when Pharaoh saw that the raine, and the haile and the thunders were ceased, hee sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his seruants.Select Exodus 9:34

35And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the children of Israel goe, as the Lord had spoken by Moses.Select Exodus 9:35
