heart, “Never again will I
curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his
heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.

heard about it until
today.”

listen to me, I will pay you the price of the field. Accept it from me, so that I may
bury my dead there.”
My lord,
hearken unto me: the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver; what is that
betwixt me and thee?
bury therefore thy dead.
“
Listen to me, my lord. The land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, but what is that between you and me?
Bury your dead.”

verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the
anguish of his soul, when he
besought us, and we would not
hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.
Then they said to one another, “Surely we are being punished because of our brother. We saw his
anguish when he
pleaded with us, but we would not
listen. That is why this distress has come upon us.”
And
Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not
hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.

hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.

listen to my voice? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”
And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither
hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
And the LORD said, “If they refuse to believe you or
heed the witness of the first sign, they may believe that of the second.
And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither
hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land.
But if they do not believe even these two signs or
listen to your voice, take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. Then the water you take from the Nile will become blood on the ground.”

kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the
Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he
seeth thee, he will be
glad in his
heart.

listen to me, then why would Pharaoh
listen to me, since I am unskilled in speech?”

hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

listen to you. Then I will lay My hand on Egypt, and by mighty acts of judgment I will bring the divisions of My people the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.
