Behold, to-morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and Jehovah sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down unto the earth; and Jehovah rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
So Samuel called unto Jehovah; and Jehovah sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared Jehovah and Samuel.
And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for thy servants unto Jehovah thy God, that we die not; for we have added unto all our sins (this) evil, to ask us a king.
And it came to pass in a little while, that the heavens grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel:
For by these he judgeth the peoples; He giveth food in abundance.
Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, Against the day of battle and war?
To cause it to rain on a land where no man is; On the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
To satisfy the waste and desolate (ground), And to cause the tender grass to spring forth?
