Exodus 9:14-16

The Voice

¹⁴ This time, if you refuse, I’m going to send a series of plagues upon you yourself, your servants, and your people. Then you will see that there is no one else as great as I am in all the earth. ¹⁵ For by now I could have easily raised my hand and struck you and your people with a disease so lethal that you would be erased entirely from the earth. ¹⁶ But I have kept you in power for a reason, to show you My greater power and to see that My name and reputation spread through all the earth.^[a]
