²⁷ Then Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have done evil this time: the Lord is upright, and I and my people are sinners.

¹⁸ The Lord is upright; for I have gone against his orders: give ear, now, all you peoples, and see my pain, my virgins and my young men have gone away as prisoners.

⁴ The Lord is true: the cords of the evil-doers are broken in two.

⁶ Then the chiefs of Israel and the king made themselves low and said, The Lord is upright.

¹⁶ Then Pharaoh quickly sent for Moses and Aaron, and said, I have done evil against the Lord your God and against you.

¹⁷ The Lord is upright in all his ways, and kind in all his works.

¹⁴ So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.

¹⁹ Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:

⁵ But by your hard and unchanged heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of the revelation of God's judging in righteousness;

⁴ Saying, I have done wrong in giving into your hands an upright man. But they said, What is that to us? it is your business.

¹⁶ The Lord has given knowledge of himself through his judging: the evil-doer is taken in the net which his hands had made. (Higgaion. Selah.)

²¹ Then Saul said, I have done wrong: come back to me, David my son: I will do you no more wrong, because my life was dear to you today truly, I have been foolish and my error is very great.

³⁰ Then he said, Great is my sin: but still, give me honour now before the heads of my people and before Israel, and come back with me so that I may give worship to the Lord your God.

²⁴ And Saul said to Samuel, Great is my sin: for I have gone against the orders of the Lord and against your words: because, fearing the people, I did what they said.

³⁴ And Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, I have done wrong, for I did not see that you were in the way against me: but now, if it is evil in your eyes, I will go back again.
