¹⁸ Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause very heavy hail to rain down, such as has not been in Egypt since its founding until now.

²³ And Moses stretched out his rod toward heaven; and ^(A)the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire darted to the ground. And the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt.

¹⁸ So Samuel called to the Lord, and the Lord sent thunder and rain that day; and ^(A)all the people greatly feared the Lord and Samuel.

¹⁹ And all the people said to Samuel, ^(A)“Pray for your servants to the Lord your God, that we may not die; for we have added to all our sins the evil of asking a king for ourselves.”
