Sep 26【每日活水】在世上彰显 SHEN 的荣耀

雹灾

13 耶/和/华对摩西说：「你清早起来，站在法老面前，对他说：『耶/和/华－希伯来人的　 SHEN 这样说：容我的百姓去，好事奉我。

14 因为这一次我要叫一切的灾殃临到你和你臣仆并你百姓的身上，叫你知道在普天下没有像我的。

15 我若伸手用瘟疫攻击你和你的百姓，你早就从地上除灭了。

16 其实，我叫你存立，是特要向你显我的大能，并要使我的名传遍天下。

17 你还向我的百姓自高，不容他们去吗？

18 到明天约在这时候，我必叫重大的冰雹降下，自从埃及开国以来，没有这样的冰雹。

19 现在你要打发人把你的牲畜和你田间一切所有的催进来；凡在田间不收回家的，无论是人是牲畜，冰雹必降在他们身上，他们就必死。』」

20 法老的臣仆中，惧怕耶/和/华这话的，便叫他的奴仆和牲畜跑进家来。

21 但那不把耶/和/华这话放在心上的，就将他的奴仆和牲畜留在田里。

22 耶/和/华对摩西说：「你向天伸杖，使埃及遍地的人身上和牲畜身上，并田间各样菜蔬上，都有冰雹。」

23 摩西向天伸杖，耶/和/华就打雷下雹，有火闪到地上；耶/和/华下雹在埃及地上。

24 那时，雹与火搀杂，甚是厉害，自从埃及成国以来，遍地没有这样的。

25 在埃及遍地，雹击打了田间所有的人和牲畜，并一切的菜蔬，又打坏田间一切的树木。

26 惟独以色列人所住的歌珊地没有冰雹。

The Plague of Hail

13 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, confront Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go, so that they may worship me,

14 or this time I will send the full force of my plagues against you and against your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.

15 For by now I could have stretched out my hand and struck you and your people with a plague that would have wiped you off the earth.

16 But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.

17 You still set yourself against my people and will not let them go.

18 Therefore, at this time tomorrow I will send the worst hailstorm that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded till now.

19 Give an order now to bring your livestock and everything you have in the field to a place of shelter, because the hail will fall on every person and animal that has not been brought in and is still out in the field, and they will die.’”

20 Those officials of Pharaoh who feared the word of the Lord hurried to bring their slaves and their livestock inside.

21 But those who ignored the word of the Lord left their slaves and livestock in the field.

22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that hail will fall all over Egypt—on people and animals and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.”

23 When Moses stretched out his staff toward the sky, the Lord sent thunder and hail, and lightning flashed down to the ground. So the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt;

24 hail fell and lightning flashed back and forth. It was the worst storm in all the land of Egypt since it had become a nation.

25 Throughout Egypt hail struck everything in the fields—both people and animals; it beat down everything growing in the fields and stripped every tree.

26 The only place it did not hail was the land of Goshen, where the Israelites were.
