 | Israel in Egypt |  |
In stern mood Moses on him looked, and said;
“Soon as without the city I am gone,
I will spread forth my hands unto the Lord;
And the great thunder and the hail shall cease:
So mayst thou know that all the earth is God's.
But, as for thee, and thine, I know that yet
Ye will not fear the Lord.”
“Soon as without the city I am gone,
I will spread forth my hands unto the Lord;
And the great thunder and the hail shall cease:
So mayst thou know that all the earth is God's.
But, as for thee, and thine, I know that yet
Ye will not fear the Lord.”
Like two sharp swords
Piercing the flesh, in Pharaoh's spirit pierced
The eyes of Moses, when, thus having said,
Full in the face he looked him; without word,
A book of censure speaking. Turning then,
Aaron beside him, swiftly he went forth.
Piercing the flesh, in Pharaoh's spirit pierced
The eyes of Moses, when, thus having said,
Full in the face he looked him; without word,
A book of censure speaking. Turning then,
Aaron beside him, swiftly he went forth.
