22. I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end you may know that I am the LORD on the earth.

23. I will put a division between my people and your people: by tomorrow shall this sign be."'"

4. The LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of ISRAEL and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of ISRAEL."'"

5. The LORD appointed a set time, saying, "Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land."

6. The LORD did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of ISRAEL, not one died.

7. Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the ISRAELites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn't let the people go.

8. The LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, "Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.

9. It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking out with boils on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt."

10. They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward the sky; and it became a boil breaking out with boils on man and on animal.

11. The magicians couldn't stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians, and on all the Egyptians.

12. The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn't listen to them, as the LORD had spoken to Moses.

13. The LORD said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, 'This is what The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: "Let my people go, that they may serve me.

14. For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.

15. For now I would have stretched out my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;

16. but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth;

17. as you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won't let them go.

18. Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.

19. Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. Every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn't brought home, the hail shall come down on them, and they shall die."'"

20. Those who feared The LORD's word among the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.

21. Whoever didn't respect The LORD's word left his servants and his livestock in the field.

22. The LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt."

23. Moses stretched out his rod toward the heavens, and the LORD sent thunder, hail, and lightning flashed down to the earth. the LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.

24. So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

25. The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; 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.

They didn't see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of ISRAEL had light in their dwellings.

But against any of the children of ISRAEL a dog won't even bark or move its tongue, against man or animal; that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between the Egyptians and ISRAEL.

The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
