Exodus 9:13-16 ▼

13 Then the LORD told Moses, |Get up early in the morning, present yourself to Pharaoh, and say to him, 'This is what the LORD God of the Hebrews says: |Let my people go so they may serve me.

14 Indeed, this time I'm sending all my plagues against you , your officials, and your people, so you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.

15 Indeed, by now I could have sent forth my hand and struck you and your people with a plague, and you would have been destroyed from the earth.

16 However, I've kept you standing in order to show you my power and to declare my name in all the earth.
