Exodus 9:29-31

New International Reader's Version

²⁹ Moses replied, “When I’ve left the city, I’ll lift up my hands and pray to the Lord. The thunder will stop. There won’t be any more hail. Then you will know that the earth belongs to the Lord. ³⁰ But I know that you and your officials still don’t have any respect for the Lord God.”

³¹ The barley was ripe. The flax was in bloom. So they were both destroyed.
