29. Moses said to him, As soon as I leave the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord; the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail, that you may know that the earth is the Lord's.
30. But as for you and your servants, I know that you do not yet [reverently] fear the Lord God.
31. The flax and the barley were smitten and ruined, for the barley was in the ear and the flax in bloom.
32. But the wheat and spelt [another wheat] were not smitten, for they ripen late and were not grown up yet.
33. So Moses left the city and Pharaoh, and stretched forth his hands to the Lord; and the thunder and hail ceased, and rain was no longer poured upon the earth.
34. But when Pharaoh saw that the rain, the hail, and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet more, and toughened and stiffened his hard heart, he and his servants.
35. So Pharaoh's heart was strong and obstinate; he would not let the Israelites go, just as the Lord had said by Moses. [Exod. 4:21.]
