Reader 7 (6th Day Morning Portion)
Exo 9:17 As yet exalt you yourself against my people, that you will not let them go?
Exo 9:18 Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the foundation thereof even until now.
Exo 9:19 Send now, and gather your livestock, and all that you have 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.
Exo 9:20 He that feared the word of YHWH among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his livestock flee into the houses:
Exo 9:21 And he that regarded not the word of YHWH left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Exo 9:22 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Stretch forth your 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.
Exo 9:23 And Moshe stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and YHWH sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and YHWH rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
Exo 9:24 So 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.
Exo 9:25 And 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 broke every tree of the field.
Exo 9:26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Yisra'el were, was there no hail.
Exo 9:27 And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moshe and Aharon, and said unto them, I have sinned this time: YHWH is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
Exo 9:28 Intreat YHWH (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.
Exo 9:29 And Moshe said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto YHWH; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that you may know how that the earth is YHWH'S.
Exo 9:30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you will not yet fear YHWH Elohim.
Exo 9:31 And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled.
Exo 9:32 But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for they were not grown up.
Exo 9:33 And Moshe went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands unto YHWH: and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the earth.

Exo 9:35 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the children of Yisra'el go; as YHWH had spoken by Moshe.

Eze 29:14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Patros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
Eze 29:15 It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
Eze 29:16 And it shall be no more the refuge of the house of Yisra'el, which brings lawlessness to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am YHWH Elohim.
Eze 29:17 And it came to pass in the twenty seventh year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,
Eze 29:18 Son of man, Nevukhadnetzar king of Bavel caused his army to serve a great service against Tzor: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tzor, for the service that he had served against it:
Eze 29:19 Therefore thus saith YHWH Elohim; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nevukhadnetzar king of Bavel; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Eze 29:20 I have given him the land of Egypt for his labor where he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith YHWH Elohim.
Eze 29:21 In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Yisra'el to bud forth, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am YHWH.
