Exodus 9:20 in context

The verses around it, from Exodus 9.

16 But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.

17 Still, you lord it over My people and do not allow them to go.

18 Behold, at this time tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.

19 So give orders now to shelter your livestock and everything you have in the field. Every man or beast that remains in the field and is not brought inside will die when the hail comes down upon them.’”

20 Those among Pharaoh’s officials who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their servants and livestock to shelter,

21 but those who disregarded the word of the LORD left their servants and livestock in the field.

22 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt—on man and beast and every plant of the field throughout the land of Egypt.”

23 So Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the earth. So the LORD rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.

24 The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the time it became a nation.
