25 And the hail smote in all the land of Egypt both man and beast, and the hail smote all the grass in the field, and the hail broke in pieces all the trees in the field.

27 And Pharao sent and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time: the Lord righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
