瘟疫之災
1耶和華對摩西說：「你再進宮見法老，告訴他，『希伯來人的上帝耶和華說，讓我的子民去事奉我。 2如果你不讓他們走，繼續扣留他們， 3我就會使你田間所有的牲畜，包括馬、驢、駱駝和牛羊，都染上嚴重的瘟疫。 4但我要把埃及和以色列的牲畜分開，以色列人的牲畜必絲毫無損。』」 5耶和華定了日期，說：「明天耶和華必在此地行這事。」 6第二天，耶和華就這樣行了，埃及的牲畜都死了，但以色列人的牲畜一頭也沒死。 7法老派人去探查，發現以色列人的牲畜真的安然無恙。可是，他仍然頑固，不肯讓以色列人離開。
膿瘡之災
8耶和華對摩西和亞倫說：「你們去取幾把窯裡的灰，摩西要在法老面前把灰拋向空中。 9這灰要變成塵土，散佈在埃及每一個角落，落在人或牲畜身上，就會起皰長瘡。」 10摩西和亞倫便取了一些窯裡的灰，站在法老面前，摩西把灰拋向空中，埃及人和牲畜身上就開始起皰長瘡。 11埃及的巫師無法與摩西對抗，因為他們及所有埃及人身上都長了膿瘡。 12耶和華使法老的心剛硬，他就不聽他們的話，正如耶和華對摩西說的。
冰雹之災
13耶和華對摩西說：「明天一早你再去見法老，對他說，『希伯來人的上帝耶和華這樣說，你要讓我的子民出去事奉我。 14這一次，我要降下大災禍在你及你的臣僕和百姓身上，好叫你知道普天之下我獨一無二。 15我若用瘟疫攻擊你和你的百姓，你們早就滅亡了。 16我讓你活到現在，是為了向你彰顯我的權能，使我的名傳遍天下。 17但你竟然在我的子民面前狂傲自大，不讓他們離開。 18明天這個時候，我要使天上降下大冰雹，是你們埃及立國以來從沒有見過的。 19現在，你要叫人趕快到田間把牲畜和屬於你的一切都帶到安全的地方。凡留在田間的人或牲畜都會被冰雹打死。』」 20有些法老的臣僕聽了耶和華的話就很害怕，趕忙把在田間的僕人和牲畜都召回屋裡。 21但那些不把耶和華的話放在心上的，仍把他們的奴僕和牲畜留在田間。 22耶和華對摩西說：「你向天伸杖，天就會降下冰雹，落在埃及的一切人畜身上，摧毀田間的一切農作物。」 23摩西向天伸出手杖，耶和華就發出雷電和冰雹，火光飛向大地。耶和華在埃及降下冰雹。 24那時冰雹夾雜著火降下來，極為嚴重，在埃及史無前例。 25冰雹摧毀了埃及境內田間的一切，包括人和牲畜，摧毀了田裡的一切作物，打斷了所有的樹木， 26只有以色列人所住的歌珊沒有冰雹。 27法老派人召來摩西和亞倫，對他們說：「這次我犯罪了，耶和華是對的，我和我的百姓錯了。 28請你們向耶和華禱告，好止住雷電和冰雹。我准許以色列人出去，你們不必再留在這裡了。」 29摩西回答說：「我一出城，就向耶和華舉手禱告，雷電和冰雹必立刻停止，這樣你就知道普天下都屬於耶和華。 30但我知道你和你的臣僕還是不敬畏上帝耶和華。」
31這場冰雹發生在大麥吐穗和亞麻開花的時候。 32小麥和粗麥較晚成熟，沒有被冰雹打壞。 33摩西離開法老，走出城外向耶和華舉手禱告，雷和冰雹便停止了，豪雨也不下了。 34法老看見災禍停止，就又犯罪，他和他的臣僕都心裡頑固。 35法老硬著心，不讓以色列人離開，正如耶和華藉摩西所言。
1Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me. 2For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still, 3Behold, the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle which is in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: there shall be a very grievous murrain. 4And the LORD shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt: and there shall nothing die of all that is the children’s of Israel. 5And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land. 6And the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died: but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one. 7And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
8¶ And the LORD said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the heaven in the sight of Pharaoh. 9And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt. 10And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast. 11And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians. 12And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses.
13¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me. 14For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth. 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. 16And in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power; and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth.9.16 raised…: Heb. made thee stand 17As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people, that thou wilt not let them go? 18Behold, to morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the foundation thereof even until now. 19Send therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field; for upon every man and beast which shall be found in the field, and shall not be brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die. 20He that feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses: 21And he that regarded not the word of the LORD left his servants and his cattle in the field.9.21 regarded…: Heb. set not his heart unto
22¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth thine hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt. 23And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and the LORD rained hail upon the land of Egypt. 24So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. 25And the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every tree of the field. 26Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.
27¶ And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, I have sinned this time: the LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked. 28Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.9.28 mighty…: Heb. voices of God 29And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD’s. 30But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear the LORD God. 31And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled. 32But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for they were not grown up.9.32 not grown…: Heb. hidden or, dark 33And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands unto the LORD: and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the earth. 34And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants. 35And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the children of Israel go; as the LORD had spoken by Moses.9.35 by Moses: Heb. by the hand of Moses
