- for the LORD[YHWH]:
- "And the LORDª saidª° unto¹ Moses,ª When thou goest²°¹ to returnª° into Egypt,ª seeª° that thou doª° all¹ those wondersª beforeª Pharaoh,ª which¹ I have putª° in thine hand:ª but I¹ will hardenª°¹ his heart,ª that he shall not¹ let¹ the peopleª go.ª°" {Exd 4:21} + "And Mosesª and Aaronª didª°¹ all¹ these¹ wondersª beforeª Pharaoh:ª and the LORDª hardenedª°¹ Pharaoh'sª heart,ª so that he would not¹ let¹ the childrenª of Israelª go¹ out²° of his land.ª¹" {Exd 11:10} + "And Sihonª would not¹ sufferª°¹ Israelª to passª° through his border:ª but Sihonª gathered²° all his people² together,ª°¹¹¹ and went outª° againstª° Israelª into the wilderness:ª and he cameª° to Jahaz,ª and foughtª° against Israel.ª" {Num 21:23} + "There was¹ not¹ a cityª that¹ made peaceª° with¹ the childrenª of Israel,ª save¹ the Hivitesª the inhabitantsª° of Gibeon:ª¹ all¹ [other] they tookª° in battle.ª ... For¹ it was¹ of¹¹ the LORDª to hardenª°¹ their hearts,ª that they should come againstª°¹ Israelª in battle,ª that¹ he might destroy¹ them utterly,²° [and] that they might have¹ no¹ favour,ª but¹ that¹ he might destroyª° them, as¹ the LORDª commandedª°¹ Moses.ª" {Jsh 11:19-20} + "But Sihonª trustedª° not¹¹ Israelª to passª° through his coast:ª but Sihonª gathered²° all his people² together,ª°¹¹¹ and pitchedª° in Jahaz,ª and foughtª° against¹ Israel.ª" {Jdg 11:20} + "Forª the¹ scriptureª saithª° unto Pharaoh,ª Even forª² this² same purposeª¹ have I raised²° thee² up,ª°¹ thatª I might shewª° myª powerª inª thee,ª andª thatª myª nameª might be declaredª° throughoutª allª the¹ earth.ª ... Andª thatª he might make knownª° the¹ richesª of his²¹ gloryª onª the vesselsª of mercy,ª whichª he had afore preparedª° untoª glory,ª" {Rom 9:17-23}
