⁸ The Lord hardened the heart^(A) of Pharaoh king of Egypt, so that he pursued the Israelites, who were marching out boldly.^(B)

¹⁷ The God of the people of Israel chose our ancestors; he made the people prosper during their stay in Egypt; with mighty power he led them out of that country;^(A)

⁸ So the Lord brought us out of Egypt^(A) with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm,^(B) with great terror and with signs and wonders.^(C)

⁴ And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart,^(A) and he will pursue them.^(B) But I will gain glory^(C) for myself through Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.”^(D) So the Israelites did this.

¹⁶ And it will be like a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead^(A) that the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his mighty hand.”

⁹ This observance will be for you like a sign on your hand^(A) and a reminder on your forehead^(B) that this law of the Lord is to be on your lips. For the Lord brought you out of Egypt with his mighty hand.^(C)

6 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh: Because of my mighty hand^(A) he will let them go;^(B) because of my mighty hand he will drive them out of his country.”^(C)
