⁹ And the Lord said to Moses, Pharaoh will not give ear to you, so that my wonders may be increased in the land of Egypt.

³ And I will make Pharaoh's heart hard, and my signs and wonders will be increased in the land of Egypt.

⁴ But Pharaoh will not give ear to you, and I will put my hand on Egypt, and take my armies, my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt, after great punishments.

¹⁹ And I am certain that the king of Egypt will not let you go without being forced.

¹ And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh: for I have made his heart and the hearts of his servants hard, so that I may let my signs be seen among them:

¹⁶ So then, it is not by the desire or by the attempt of man, but by the mercy of God.

¹⁷ For the holy Writings say to Pharaoh, For this same purpose did I put you on high, so that I might make my power seen in you, and that there might be knowledge of my name through all the earth.

¹⁸ So then, at his pleasure he has mercy on a man, and at his pleasure he makes the heart hard.
