1:19:27
In the three days
of darkness,
1:19:29
you have whined like
frightened children
1:19:31
in the night.
1:19:33
Moses said the sun
would shine in three days,
1:19:36
and it is true.
1:19:37
O Great One,
let his people go,
1:19:40
or all of Egypt
will be barren
1:19:42
from the cataracts
to the sea.
1:19:45
Will my father
free the slaves?
1:19:48
Can taxes be collected
1:19:49
from dead cattle
and blighted harvests?
1:19:51
Does fear rule Egypt...
1:19:54
...or do I?
1:19:56
We fear no army
of the earth,
1:19:58
but can we fight
plagues with swords?
1:20:00
There is no shame in this.
1:20:02
Even the strongest
tree bends.
1:20:04
It is not Pharaoh
who yields to the slave,
1:20:08
but his counselors.
1:20:09
I have summoned Moses
at your request.
1:20:15
People will bless you,
Great One.
1:20:17
No other choice.
1:20:18
Does the world bow
to an empty throne?
1:20:23
Empty?
1:20:25
Does a Pharaoh harden
his heart against his son?
1:20:29
If you let
the Hebrews go,
1:20:31
who will build
his cities?
1:20:34
You told Moses
to make bricks without straw.
1:20:37
Now he tells you
1:20:39
to make cities
without bricks.
1:20:43
Who is the slave,
and who is the Pharaoh?
1:20:47
Do you hear
laughter, Rameses?
1:20:51
Yes.
1:20:52
The laughter of kings.
1:20:54
In Babylon,
1:20:56
in Canaan,
1:20:58
in Troy...
