Text: Exodus 9: 20-26

MEDITATION

Exodus 9:20-26

20 He who feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his livestock flee to the houses.
21 But he who did not regard the word of the LORD left his servants and his livestock in the field.
22 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt—on man, on beast, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
23 And Moses stretched out his rod toward heaven; and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and fire darted to the ground. And the LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.
24 So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, so very heavy that there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
25 And the hail struck throughout the whole land of Egypt, all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail struck every herb of the field and broke every tree of the field.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

《出埃及记 9: 20-26》
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，雹与火掺杂，甚是厉害，自从埃及成国以来，遍地没有这样的。
