💬 The Ten Commandments (1956)

A bride, a shawl. Choose one, not all.

A caravan for Midian is waiting for you and your son.

A ceaseless cycle of unending drudgery.

A chariot here in Goshen?

A child was wrapped in it.

A city is built of brick, Pharaoh.

A conqueror already conquered?

A day of rest?

A delicate flower to be pressed between walls of stone.

A flower behind a flower.

A forsaken man without a country,

A god of gold! A golden calf!

A golden harvest to the threshers,

A handsome tribute indeed, Moses.

A jewel has brilliant fire, but gives no warmth.

A little girl led me to the Hebrew woman Yochabel,

A man stupid enough to use you for a footstool

A man?

A merchant buying copper

A moment ago, you were her son, the strength of Egypt.

A nation arose and freedom was born into the world.

A noble task.

A shepherd girl? What can she be to you?

A stonecutter struck the overseer.

A thousand shall fall at thy sight

A wise decision.

A worth and a greatness

Aaron!

Aaron! Aaron, when do we leave Egypt?

Aaron.

Abiram! Korah! Bind the sacrifice with cord!

About midnight,

Above us!

Abraham is the father of many nations.

Across the desert? On foot?

Across the wilderness!

Add to them the eyes of a weasel and find me this deliverer.

After all, dying is only a part of living.

Against thy neighbor:

Aide.

All about is desolation.

All but your proclamation for the marriage of Prince Rameses to Nefretiri.

All for your new treasure city.

All men to the pass! Get carts, wagons! Form a barrier!

All right, all right.

All that a man could ask of life.

All that they own is mine.

All that you wanted from me he would not even take.

All who shared the toil will share this gold! Here, boy!

All who thirst for freedom may come with us.

All your gold cannot wipe that mark from your door, Dathan,

Always remember, Eleazar,

Am I the hand of God?

An answer the world will not forget!

An idol. For idol worshippers!

An inferno of mud soaked bodies,

And Aaron knew that he had brought them to shame.

And adopted into the court of Egypt

And all the first born shall die,

And all those shouts are drowned by the beating of my heart.

And beauty is for the strong.

And beauty.

And bid them make bricks without straw.

And bow down to his will.

And bow no knee except in prayer.

And bring death to 1,000 others?

And brings death to his own son!

And broken from the brick pits,

And burn as fire upon the ground.

And by the Pharaoh's law, you can marry only a Pharaoh.

And cast into Egypt,

And cast off their clothes.

And dance the straw into the mud, you dogs.

And death and evil.

And deliverer of slaves.

And did blow the fire upon it to melt it.

And did eat and drink.

And drank the wine of violence,

And endlessly return for more.

And even very much cattle,

And everywhere the lash of watchful taskmasters

And fine twined linen wrought in Egypt.

And freedom was gone from the world.

And frogs should leave the waters?

And from this light, God created life upon Earth.

And God said, Let there be light.

And God smote the land with all manner of plagues,

And golden images of beasts...

And he brought forth the people with joy and gladness.

And he fastened it with nails that it should not move.

And he has asked the Nile god to bring me this beautiful boy.

And he returned to the land of Egypt.

And he said unto me, Behold the new land with thine eyes.

And he that smote the anvil

And he went out unto his brethren

And he would dwell in every heart, in every mind...

And here is your kingdom,

And hide the truth from Sethi? That I am Hebrew and a slave?

And how shall I answer them?

And I am not going to be displayed like a caravan's wares

And I have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters.

And I know that his light is in every man.

And I will be with thee.

And I will be your footstool.

And I will enjoy that very much.

And I will raise a temple to you mightier than the pyramids.

And I'll be Rameses' wife. Oh, Moses!

And I'll give you the princess of your heart's desire.

And I'm going to have all of you.

And it is death to give sanctuary to a runaway slave.

And it shall be the city of Sethi's glory.

And Josephus wrote some 50 years later

And killed the Egyptian.

And life giving water; flowing from the well of Midian.

And life in the copper mines of Sinai.

And looked on their burdens.

And man was given dominion

And Moses led Israel from the Red Sea

And Moses took his wife and his son

And Moses took the rod of God in his hand.

And my arms ached to hold him,

And no son to tend them.

And Rameses.

And restore the life he has taken from my son.

And sceptered as her king.

And send Bithiah into exile or death.

And set my feet upon the path of knowledge.

And spread disease in both man and beast?

And still you have no faith!

And strength?

And that our Lord is above all gods.

And that's all that he must know.

And the cloud is red with fire.

And the darkness a robe of forgetfulness.

And the God of Jacob.

And the Lord showed him all the land

And the man who will deliver us.

And the only deliverer that has come to us is death.

And the pain of an empty womb.

And the people cried, The graven image hath brought us joy, ”

And the people rose up to play,

And the power to choose between good and evil,

And the sea covered them!

And the women tread g****s from Midian into new wine.

And their cry came up unto God and God heard them.

And their herds and their camels before them.

And their lives were made bitter with hard bondage,

And there are seven here to teach you the tasks of a shepherd.

And there shall be so great a cry throughout the land

And there was light.

And there was rioting and drunkenness,

And there went forth among them

And they bore him upon their shoulders and rejoiced,

And they camped before the holy mountain.

And they cared no more than the flocks and herds they drove.

And they did evil in the eyes of the Lord.

And they overlaid the image with pure gold.

And they were filled with iniquity and vile affections.

And they worshipped the golden calf and sacrificed unto it.

And this you call treason?

And to a people and to a shepherd girl.

And to feed the brick pits, straw,

And to prove whether they would keep his commandments or no,

And today I have one for you, my kitten.

And under his wing shalt thou trust

And upon our hearts forever.

And was found in the bulrushes by Bithiah,

And watched the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans.

And were viler than the earth.

And when he was troubled, was it your heart that ached for him?

And when the people saw that Moses delayed

And who am I to deny the word of the master builder?

And who...?

And you shall know that God is God

And you will have none.

And you will never know

And you will serve him as you serve me.

And you'll die in the lion pits.

And your hair combed with sandalwood,

And your shroud!

And your women and children, too.

And...

Another creed.

Anything, Dathan.

Anything.

Are her lips chafed and dry as the desert sand?

Are men the property of the state,

Are the captains of Egypt afraid of a night mist?

Are the plans for my jubilee complete?

Are there no magicians in Egypt

Are you a master builder or a master butcher?

Are you comforting it, my mother?

Are you mourners of Moses afraid to face the new god of gold?

Are you not greater than the god of Moses?

Are you quite sure it will be Rameses?

Aren't you going to dance with us before the sheiks?

Arise, O Israel!

As an ally to guard our southern gates.

As an eagle bears its young upon its wings.

As Egypt surrenders to the god of slaves!

As for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord.

As many of you know,

As the price of his favor?

As you go to join them

As you stir mine.

As your father's father turned the streets of Goshen red

Ask Aaron. Could anyone live on that fiery summit for 40 days and 40 nights?

Assemble all the chariots at the city gate.

At least he left you a son to cherish.

At least not by that fire.

At such a time,

At the hand of Nefretiri.

Back to work, you braying mules.

Back to work!

Back to your homes!

Back, Khataf. Come down!

Baka wanted you.

Baka was a powerful man. It would take strong hands to break him.

Baka, put 1,000 slaves to removing the sand

Baka, the master builder, has told me that I can rely on you.

Be careful, my love. Dathan's eyes can see through stone.

Be stricken from every book and tablet.

Be sure it's not a crocodile!

Be upon you, Great Prince.

Bearers!

Beauty is but a curse to our women.

Beauty like the quiet of green valleys and still waters.

Beauty of the spirit that you cannot understand.

Because he knew not the light of God's law.

Because I am bound to a God

Because I disobeyed him by the waters of strife.

Because I love you.

Because I loved you, Moses.

Because I saw in you

Because of Moses there is no wheat in the temple granaries.

Because she grumbled against you.

Because this night the Lord our God

Because your serpent's tongue hardened my heart.

Bedouins?

Before Moses or any other man.

Before you go,

Before you strike,

Beginning with the son of Moses.

Behold his mighty hand!

Behold the dawn of freedom!

Behold, the hail comes.

Beloved of the Nile god,

Ben Caleb! Order all wagons to turn clear!

Beneath the stone feet of the four colossal images of Rameses,

Better to die in battle with a god, than live in shame.

Better to serve the Egyptians than to die here!

Between me and my fame,

Between me and my queen.

Between the granite blocks.

Bind him between the columns.

Bithiah can charm tears from a crocodile.

Bithiah!

Bithiah's tired of you and so am I. Off you go.

Bitterness to feed the slaves,

Blades chopping straw.

Blame Moses for this! Deliver him to Pharaoh!

Blasphemers! Idolaters!

Blessed am I among all mothers in the land,

Blessed art thou, O Lord our God,

Blinding herself to the truth

Block the pass with carts! Women and children, to the sea!

Blood flows from the god!

Blood makes poor mortar. Come.

Blue pennant.

Bondage without rest,

Bow before you now.

Break off your earrings, your bracelets, your necklaces!

Break open the bins.

Bring baskets! Buckets! Shawls! Anything you have!

Bring him to me in chains.

Bring it back to me stained with his blood.

Bring me to his body!

Bring the girl.

Bring the push pole men and some women with baskets.

Bring us out of bitter bondage.

Build a city for him, and Sethi will deny you nothing.

But again, Pharaoh 's heart was hardened.

But beauty of the spirit will not free your people, Moses.

But bring Moses to me alive.

But by the staff of a shepherd.

But can we fight plagues with swords?

But each sought to do his own will

But Egypt holds death for you.

But for ten talents of fine gold,

But God made it a rod to rule over kings.

But he's dead. Even she cannot hope that he lives!

But he's my son, Moses.

But I am Egypt.

But I believe anything you tell me when I'm in your arms.

But I dared not even touch the hem of his garment.

But I do know that the mountain rumbles when God is there.

But I find you in grave danger here.

But I have built a city.

But I knew you were chosen to take the sword of God into your hand!

But I know better.

But I shall not be jealous of a memory.

But I think you will.

But I want to hear from your own lips

But I've not known fear till tonight.

But if I could free them,

But if I say to your children

But in his heart would burn the spirit of the living God.

But it passes those who have believed the Lord.

But it shall not come nigh thee

But Moses promised us.

But Moses' eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.

But Mother, we have not even given him a name.

But my eyes never could.

But my feet are set upon a road that I must follow.

But my heart is still a prisoner of the past.

But not with certain accusations made against you.

But of all men.

But our children play happily before them.

But please...

But still Pharaoh 's heart was hardened.

But the laughter of slaves on the desert!

But their tally of bricks shall not diminish.

But there are other mothers among you!

But there was no wound on the body.

But they are still in bondage.

But this I know, my father:

But to be worthy of the divinely inspired story

But we have an unusual subject:

But when their eyes are seared red by the sun,

But will sympathy lead us to this land flowing with milk and honey?

But you are not a god, you are even less than a man.

But you are the throne princess,

But you belong to me.

But you said we'd be freed!

But you will.

But you, Hebrew, will suffer all these things...

But you're food for the gods,

But, for me, there is no peace of spirit

By a god unknown

By myself, I am nothing.

By sickness, by boils. They can endure no more.

By tens, by hundreds, by thousands,

By the tablets of the Ten Commandments,

By thirst, they've been plagued by frogs, by lice, by flies,

By whom?

Called him son and Prince of Egypt,

Came a day such as the world had never seen.

Can a man choose from among the stars of the sky?

Can a man judge God?

Can mattocks stop arrows?

Can one so rich in love be so poor in pity?

Can taxes be collected from dead cattle and blighted harvests?

Can you lead us to this land of promise? Do you know where it is?

Can you tell us, Moses?

Cannot justice and truth be served better upon a throne

Captain. Robe of state.

Carried on the bowed backs of women

Cast down my staff before Pharaoh

Catch a lotus and you catch a wish.

Century after century.

Chains have been forged into swords before now, Divine One.

Chariots, halt!

Chief Hebrew overseer, mighty one.

Children shall eat of its fruit.

Clear a path there! Clear a path!

Clear a path!

Clear a path.

Clear the main hawser!

Close the door, Joshua, and let death pass.

Cohath, strike your bow.

Come here.

Come on, get back. Out of the way!

Come on, pull!

Come to me no more, Moses,

Come with me now.

Come with me, Moses.

Come with me! Follow me!

Come, gather your things, quickly.

Come, love. Let's share them. We'll use the moon for a scepter.

Come.

Command them to kneel before Pharaoh.

Command what you have conquered, my brother.

Conqueror of Ethiopia,

Consider them as they dance.

Continue your playing, but in the house.

Created 3,000 years ago:

Dance, you mud turtles, dance!

Dance, you squealing goat!

Dance, you.

Danger from such lovely hands?

Dathan is a vulture feeding on the flesh of his own people.

Dathan, if you fear God, let me go.

Dathan, it will save her life! Moses has God's promise!

Dathan, my brother, you have the favor of the Lord.

Dathan, she will do well as a house slave.

Dathan, take charge. Guards, after him.

Dathan, you can see only mud,

Day after day, year after year;

Dead...

Death cometh to me

Death cometh to me...

Death is all around us!

Deliverer? Deliverer?!

Deliverer? Yes, he has delivered you to death!

Destroy them all.

Did he ask something of you?

Did he cry for mercy when you tortured him?

Did he speak as a man?

Did he speak?

Did the little boy die in the desert, my father?

Did this child of the Nile have a mother?

Did you carve those tablets to become a prince over us?

Did you do all of this to gain their favor?

Did you ever know her?

Did you hear that? Other matters?

Did you know, my dear, that this golden web

Did you lose your head, my sweet?

Did you think my kiss was a promise of what you'll have?

Die?

Difficulty with the slaves, my brother?

Divine One,

Divine One, here is the full count of Ethiopia's tribute.

Divine One.

Do not let ambition shave your prince's lock.

Do not look, Eleazar.

Do they love less who have no hope?

Do you hear laughter, Pharaoh?

Do you hear laughter, Rameses?

Do you hear that? Do you hear that?!

Do you hear thunder? Over the sea?

Do you imply that he would raise the slaves against me?

Do you know the pattern of this cloth?

Do you see that strange tire?

Do you want to see me in Rameses' arms?

Do you? Do I?

Does fear rule Egypt, or do I?

Does he hear you?

Does it take the whole Nile to quench your thirst?

Does she... grate garlic on her skin?

Does that matter?

Does the world bow to an empty throne?

Does your God live on this mountain?

Dogs at bay are dangerous.

Don't exhaust yourself, great one.

Don't forget the oil for the lamps.

Don't let him do this! Not to the children!

Don't save me from death, Joshua, save me from life.

Double their labors.

Down into the never ending valley of toil and agony,

Down, Turfa!

Draw one more breath to tell me why Moses or any other Egyptian

Dread Lord of Darkness,

Drive back your goats until the sheep are watered.

Each hoping to sit under his own vine and Hg tree.

Each night brings the black embrace of loneliness.

Each time Rameses took me in his arms, I cursed you, not him,

Egypt shall be yours.

Egyptian or Hebrew, I am still Moses.

Eleazar, set these five books

Empty?

Endlessly they plod beneath the sheaves of wheat

Envy is for the weak.

Erased from the memory of men

Even adultery and lasciviousness,

Even Ishmael did not know that God drove him into the desert

Even the vultures won't find them.

Even unto the horns of the altar!

Ever bless us with Thy hand

Every newborn Hebrew man child shall die.

Everything about us is coming to an end!

Fear not!

Feeder of cattle, carrier of ships,

Fill every jar in your house with water

Fill the ark with water. Sink it into silence.

Fill your water skins.

First born of each house shall die,

First friend of the Pharaoh,

First I have a call to make on the master builder.

Follow it, Miriam.

Follow!

For 30 years, I have been silent.

For a slave who saved old Yochabel and me from death

For all time.

For God's great purpose.

For he does not know from where it comes.

For he is kind, as well as wise.

For I know that the Lord is great

For I know their sorrows.

For my days are ended

For my eyes have beheld thy deliverer.

For on the day you see my face again,

For seven days, Egypt will thirst.

For the next queen of Egypt.

For the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.

For they had become servants of sin.

For they had gathered their treasure into the midst of the furnace,

For they had made them a god of gold.

For this you shall be well cared for.

For this you shall drink bitter waters!

For thou shalt not cross over this river Jordan.

For thy people have corrupted themselves.

For what my eyes have seen.

For you shall go over Jordan to lead the people.

Forgive me, Bithiah.

Forward!

Four hundred years in bondage, and today he won't move!

Four hundred years we've waited.

From east and west, from north and south,

From Egypt.

From everlasting to everlasting,

From generation to generation forever.

From God himself.

From the burning bush, O Lord,

From the first born of Pharaoh to the first born of his servants.

From the frontiers of Sinai and Libya to the cataracts of the Nile.

From the land of the five rivers.

From the mixing feet of treaders

From the time he was a three month old baby

From the time my sister brought you to the court, I loved you,

From where I send him there is no returning.

Gather your families and your flocks. We must go with all speed.

General of generals,

Get away, you!

Get that straw cutter.

Get those bricks back on.

Get tow lines on the midwife's cart!

Give me all that I ask...

Give me my freedom and I'll give you the scepter.

Give me the water girl, Lilia,

Give me the writing.

Give me this binding pole.

Give me this house of Baka, and I'll give you the throne.

Go back to your son.

Go find me this Joshua.

Go into the garden. It's not good for a son of Pharaoh

Go on. Hurry up! You've hurt her enough.

Go where? To drown in the sea?

Go, all of you.

Go, then, while I hear what this puckered old persimmon has to say.

Go! Get thee down,

Go. All of you.

Go. Return into Egypt.

God forgive my weak use of his strength.

God has delivered us from the son of Pharaohs.

God has set before you this day

God made a covenant with Abraham that he would deliver the people.

God made men.

God of Abraham,

God of Abraham!

God of Abraham.

God of our fathers,

God opens the sea with the blast of his nostrils.

God will give him a name.

God's law and God's commandments.

Gold, of course.

Goshen in his right, and you, my Pharaoh, are in between them.

Goshen?

Grandfather, have you got Rebecca?

Grandfather, look, the horses are coming!

Grandpa, fire bearers!

Great king, I will ask but one favor of your friendship.

Great one, bid the scribe read the order.

Great one, I bring you Ethiopia!

Great one, you hear the cry of Egypt.

Great one!

Great Pharaoh, the gift of Troy is a fabulous fabric

Greatest of all the gods.

Guards salute!

Guide back his soul across the lake of death

Had hewn from solid rock,

Hail to thee, great god of the Nile!

Hail to thee, maker of barley,

Hail!

Harden yourself against subordinates.

Has flown into the sun.

Has melted his reason into madness.

Has my mother forgotten? Only the Pharaoh can free a slave.

Has not come to the body of my son.

Has she done more for you than I?

Have no friend.

Have the captains join their men.

Have the days of darkness made you see the light, Rameses?

He bore them out of Egypt

He can neither bless nor curse the power that moves him,

He can tell me that when he arrives.

He cannot cool the burning kiss of thirst upon his lips,

He does not thirst for water.

He gives them the priests' grain and one day in seven to rest.

He has been foretold by every falling star since my father's time.

He has brought down the pride of Ethiopia.

He has brought you to us. You cannot turn your back upon us.

He has forgotten both of us.

He has seen God.

He is driven forward, always forward,

He is driven onward through the burning crucible of desert,

He is God's messenger, Princess.

He is not a prince of Egypt.

He is not flesh but spirit.

He is not the son of your sister.

He is the first born of Pharaoh.

He is the son of Hebrew slaves.

He opens the waters before them, and he bars our way with fire.

He passed over your house.

He proclaims his coming from afar, does he not, my son?

He revealed his word to my mind.

He shall be reared in my house as the Prince of the Two Lands.

He showed you no land flowing with milk and honey! I show you a god of gold!

He spurned me, like a strumpet in the street.

He turned his staff into a cobra!

He was your son?

He who ate my bread and called me father

He who has no name surely guided your steps.

He who has no name.

He will be my husband. I shall have no other.

He will choose the hour of our freedom

He will come to know it and fulfill it.

He will hear me.

He will not!

He would have been Pharaoh.

He would have done better to remove them.

He would have ruled the world.

He would live on every mountain, in every valley.

He would not be only the god of Israel or of Ishmael alone,

He would rather see our flesh rot in the wilderness.

He'll cut him to pieces.

He's a false prophet who delivers you to death!

He's dead.

He's Hebrew.

He's just trying to keep Moses away from you, Sethi.

He's my only son.

He's nothing but a piece of stone with the head of a bird.

Health, prosperity, life to you, Jethro of Midian.

Hear his word, Rameses, and obey.

Hear what I say, Rameses.

Hear, O Israel!

Hebrew slaves.

Help that wagon!

Her lips, tamarisk honey.

Her skin was white as curd.

Here is your sacrifice!

Here, here's water.

Here, Miriam.

Here, taste this.

Here, you too will find peace.

Here!

Here! Throw!

Here! Water lily!

Here. Old woman.

Here's the kneading trough. Sling it on your shoulders.

His back scarred from the taskmaster's whip,

His fate is better than the one that waits for Moses.

His hands would be gnarled

His Hebrew mother brought it to the prison before she died.

His heritage from me could only have been misery,

His laws of life and good

His name is Joshua.

His son Joseph

His soul in turmoil, like the hot winds and raging sands

His Ten Commandments.

His tortured mind

His truth shall be thy shield

His will be done!

His word is that he cannot attend you, being pressed by...

His words are truth. His trading is just.

Hold me in your arms.

Hold me... close.

Hold the ropes!

Hold your whip!

Honor thy father and thy mother:

Hope? On the heels of every hope walks Dathan.

Horn and hoof.

How can I lead this people out of bondage?

How can people make bricks without straw?

How can we make bricks without straw?

How can you find peace or want it,

How could it make a difference?

How could Rameses destroy me with a piece of cloth?

How could you doubt me?

How did he die?

How did you find me?

How did you know it was Memnet?

How do you know that?

How long will the fire hold Pharaoh back?

How long will you refuse to humble yourself before God?

How many more days and nights will you pray?

How many of my people have died because he's turned away his face?

How shall I find thy road through the wilderness, Lord?

How shall I find water in the desert for this multitude?

I am a shepherd with flocks...

I am a stonecutter. The Pharaohs like their images cut deep.

I am a stranger in a strange land.

I am called by the Lord, Sephora. I go alone.

I am compelled to do.

I am content to be your son.

I am Egypt.

I am Hebrew.

I am here to save his son.

I am here.

I am Miriam, your sister.

I am Moses, son of Amram and Yochabel.

I am not the man.

I am outcast among our people

I am poor man, generous one.

I am poured out like water,

I am sending down the Nile 20 full barges of such wealth as you see here.

I am that I am.

I am the God of thy father.

I am the Lord thy God.

I am the Pharaoh's daughter, and this is my son.

I am the son of Amram and Yochabel.

I am the son of your body.

I am told, my tiger lily, they're wagering against me.

I am warmed by his favor.

I am your brother Aaron.

I am, Great Pharaoh, but now I have important things to do.

I belong in your service, glorious one.

I belong to you, Moses.

I bring lamb's blood to mark the doorposts and lintel,

I bring the Ethiopian king and his sister in friendship,

I can flick a fly from my horse's ear

I cannot save yours.

I cannot speak it.

I commend you to your Hebrew god who has no name.

I could never fill all of it, Moses.

I could never love you.

I could...

I cursed you.

I defeated you in life.

I do not care who you are or what you are or what they may say about you,

I do not know about such things.

I do not know what power shapes my way,

I do not know your God,

I don't believe that only the thunder of a mountain stirs your heart,

I double the wager. I'll watch for Moses, you watch the dance!

I drove him out of Egypt.

I feared only his memory of you.

I followed you here to find this woman, Yochabel...

I gave him love! Was it your hand that dried his tears?

I go to serve the Pharaoh

I have brought more evil upon you.

I have brought you a cloth more revealing. Send them away.

I have come to bless the waters, you have come to curse them.

I have found him in the midst of treachery and treason,

I have no wealth, no skill as a shepherd.

I have not little, Sephora. I have nothing.

I have put the throne of Egypt within his reach.

I have raised my voice to you, yet life

I have summoned Moses at your request.

I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt.

I have wagons for the midwives and physicians.

I hope you're content... at last.

I killed for you.

I killed her.

I know it.

I know not his god!

I know you, my sweet.

I know.

I know. And all the men following you like sheep to be sheared!

I lost him when he found his God.

I love you, my mother, but am I your son?

I love you.

I love you. That's the only truth I know.

I loved him, too.

I made no choice, Sephora.

I need another oarsman for my barge, a strong slave.

I need no help, Moses, to hold what is mine.

I nourished the orphan.

I number my enemies by their swords,

I once killed that he might live.

I owe that to my fathers, not to my sons.

I prospered because I bowed lower than my brothers before the Egyptians.

I protected the helpless,

I saved your son.

I sent for both of you.

I sent Moses to destroy a city. He returns in triumph.

I sent you to build a city.

I sent you to Goshen to bring me the head of the jackal

I set you free.

I shall give him choice of my seven daughters for wife.

I shall make her greatness feared among nations.

I shall marry a Pharaoh...

I shall not let the Pharaoh and Rameses be betrayed.

I stood upon holy ground.

I think our roosters would crow more softly on another roof.

I threw myself at your feet before the court of Pharaoh.

I want to see it, Rameses! I want to see it!

I warn you, Moses, the temple grain belongs to the gods.

I warned you of his treason, my father.

I was thanking the gods for your safe return.

I will always love you.

I will ask Bithiah.

I will bargain with you.

I will bow before you, Dathan.

I will bring him, mighty Pharaoh.

I will bring you back your temple treasure!

I will build the city for love of Sethi,

I will come to you at the palace on the day of Sethi's jubilee.

I will dwell in this land.

I will get water and bread that we may leave at once.

I will give this spawn of slaves and his god

I will give you more than leave to go.

I will give your staff a greater wonder to perform.

I will hang you myself if you tire me further.

I will honor Sethi's jubilee...

I will lead men against the armory at Migdol and get swords for the people!

I will not hear unhappy things tonight. Go away!

I will not live if you must die!

I will not make him a martyr for you to cherish.

I will not see you make this son of slaves a prince of Egypt.

I will not!

I will pay your price.

I will put my laws into their hearts.

I will ride with you, my son,

I will send you where you belong.

I will speak to you alone.

I will teach thee what thou wilt say.

I will turn aside and see this great sight.

I will turn the laughter of these slaves into wails of torment!

I will work my hands raw for you.

I will.

I will... great prince.

I wish every day was a shearing festival!

I wish sheep could learn to water themselves.

I wish you had my years and I had your choice.

I would have kept her only a short while.

I would not let his people go

I would still see fewer bricks made and fewer Hebrews in Goshen.

I would.

I, Nefretiri, Queen of Egypt!

I, who have denied the gods of Egypt,

I... I cannot choose now.

I'd rather this for your armor.

I'll be less trouble to him than the Hebrew slaves of Goshen.

I'll believe anything you want me to believe.

I'll give you the wealth of Egypt.

I'll have you torn into so many pieces,

I'll kill anyone that comes between us.

I'll not leave a man to die in the mud.

I'll pay you back every lash you gave me, Dathan!

I'm afraid he won't let me cheat the way you do.

I'm afraid the mud pits have stiffened my knees, royal one.

I'm going to risk it, Baka.

I'm here, girl, because I put no trust

I'm not kneeling to a princess.

I'm surprised you noticed me.

I'm the beggar, Moses, begging you to hold me in your arms. Kiss me.

I've felt your whip!

I've known battle for 30 years, Pharaoh,

I've never tasted honey. Anybody know the way?

If a myth, bring him to me in a bottle. If a man,

If any escape me, their seed shall be scattered and accursed forever!

If he has found forgetfulness within another woman's arms.

If he knew I were here, he would kill me as he killed the Egyptian.

If he touches you, I'll strangle him with his own whip.

If it be his will.

If it is not forbidden to look upon the breath of pestilence,

If my son is covered in it...

If not, I will give you the point of this blade through your lying throat.

If the God of Abraham has a purpose for my son,

If the slaves are not driven they will not work.

If their work lags, it is because they are not fed.

If there is a God,

If there is one more plague on Egypt,

If they are stained, it's with the mud of slavery.

If they reek, it's with the stench of injustice.

If this god is God,

If we stopped moving stones for every grease woman who falls,

If you believe that men and women are cattle to be driven under the lash,

If you bring another plague upon us,

If you can bow before idols of stone

If you die, it will be by his hand, not by mine.

If you doubt me,

If you let the Hebrews go, who will build his cities?

If you love me, do not lie. Who was the child?

If you mean Nefretiri, yes, my father.

If you try to turn Sethi against Moses.

If you want to help your people, come back to the palace.

If your god is almighty, why does he leave you in bondage?

In a desert god and his mud pit prophet.

In Babylon, in Canaan,

In fear of your god, they have set me free.

In intoxicating danger, Mother.

In my judgment book, you have accused your brother falsely.

In our tents beneath the holy mountain.

In the Ark of the Covenant,

In the cleft, behind the rock.

In the copper mines of Geber, the living are dead.

In the hardness of his heart, Pharaoh has mocked God

In the land of the dead.

In the mocking whisper of the wind

In the tent of Jethro there is dignity, honor, freedom

In the three days of darkness,

In this you shall know that the Lord is God.

In Troy,

Indeed?

Into the blistering wilderness of Shun

Into the dust... of death.

Into the hand of God.

Into the lowly hut of Amram and Yochabel,

Into the mixture for the Pharaoh 's bricks.

Into the molten wilderness of sin,

Into the stiff necked Hebrew slaves who build it.

Into the wilderness of Sinai.

Is he handsome?

Is it the fragrance of myrrh that scents her hair?

Is it the princess' beauty that attracts you, Rameses,

Is it true that Egyptian girls paint their eyes?

Is life in bondage better than death?

Is more than gold from others.

Is that what you want? To be a slave?

Is the holy mountain forbidden to men?

Is there any grain stored here in Goshen?

Is this Moses' son?

Is this the deliverer?

Is your life worth so much?

Isaac, Jacob

It could make the difference between death on the spikes

It is a garden of many flowers, Moses.

It is blood!

It is by your word that God will bring it.

It is I who will possess all of her.

It is not Pharaoh who yields to the slave,

It is not possible. A prince of Egypt?

It is not the noise of war.

It is not your god but I who will turn the Nile red with blood.

It is on fire, but the bush does not burn.

It is our eastern gate.

It is Pharaoh's order that you be given no straw

It is pleasing to the gods to see a man honored by his enemies.

It is said he created all men in his image.

It is the Lord who executes judgment, Nefretiri.

It is the noise of song and revelry.

It is the power of God which uses me to work his will.

It is wise of Dathan to send you to the well, Lilia,

It is your son, Nefretiri!

It is... It is the first born of Egypt!

It was Bithiah who drew a slave child from the Nile,

It was Moses' swaddling cloth.

It was to let you know what you will not have.

It will make no difference between us?

It will rise when I have put fear

It will take many days to cross this wilderness, if he can cross at all.

It would not be the first time that fame has turned a prince against his Pharaoh.

It would take a god.

It would take more than a man to lead the slaves from bondage.

It's a wicked lie spun by Rameses.

It's away from the whip! Freedom will wet your throats in the desert.

It's life to us.

Jacob cherished

Jannes, do you see?

Jannes.

Joshua wanted you.

Joshua, I charge you and strengthen you,

Joshua, I thought you'd never come down.

Joshua, it is enough that you have come to me.

Joshua, we must have hope.

Joshua, you risk your life in coming here.

Joshua!

Joshua! Joshua!

Joshua?

Joshua...

Joshua's strength didn't kill the master builder.

Just for that, you'll walk all the way to...

Just kiss me.

Keep your big feet out of my geese!

Keep your eyes on the ground.

Keeper of the royal seal,

Khataf! Back!

Kill him with your own hands.

Kings shall bow before you.

Korah shall be the high priest!

L am hath sent me unto you.

Ladies and gentlemen, young and old,

Lam...

Last night our astrologers saw an evil star

Laughter?

Lay on the lash! Keep it moving!

Lead them through the midst of the waters.

Lean your backs into it!

Learn if this deliverer be a myth or a man.

Learning that it can be more terrible to live than to die,

Leave him, or you'll be murdered with him.

Let her ride!

Let his staff provide them with it.

Let it be as you will.

Let Moses build a city.

Let Moses die before his work is done?

Let my people go!

Let no Hebrew sit upon our throne.

Let the ambassador from Priam, king of Troy, approach the Pharaoh.

Let the Hebrews go, great one,

Let the name of Moses

Let the name of... Moses...

Let the trumpet sound. Alert the watch towers.

Let the trumpets sound!

Let them be first whose hands have drawn the water.

Let them look upon what you thought unworthy.

Let us break bread while my daughter brings meat.

Let us go from this place. Men cannot fight against a god!

Let your own image proclaim my loyalty for a thousand years.

Level spears! Forward!

Levites in the center, Judah to the right, Hephron to the left. Go!

Life is full of surprises.

Like a pomegranate?

Like Dathan, they did not know where they were going,

Like my dog or my horse or my falcon.

Like the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Listen to me, Rameses,

Listen to Moses! He speaks God's will!

Listen, Memnet. Listen.

Logs of ebony and trees of myrrh,

Look at his face.

Look, the night's a crown of stars,

Look, there's something here!

Look! Look!

Look! Pharaoh's chariot!

Lord Prince, send him to his death.

Lord, why do you not hear the cries

Lord...

Made in the image of God.

Make way for the governor!

Make way! Make way for the sacrifice!

Make your choice, Moses.

Making straw for the bricks of Egypt,

Mallet men ready.

Mallet men, ready, stand by!

Mallet men, ready!

Many colors was his coat

Marry her if you can, my son, but never fall in love with her.

Mattocks chopping clay.

May a stranger enter?

May the gods bless you

May the hand of God strike him.

Memnet called her Yochabel.

Memnet is dead. No one need know who you are. I love you.

Memnet spoke of a Hebrew woman named Yochabel.

Memnet was not Hebrew. Why would she bring this here?

Memnet was with her.

Memnet, you're only happy when you're miserable.

Men shall be ruled by law, not the will of other men.

Mercy, Prince Moses!

Mered, bring a chair to our table for the daughter of Pharaoh.

Mered, give me the books.

Mighty in words and deeds.

More grease under the center stone.

More important things than obeying my orders?

Moses could no more betray you than I could, Sethi.

Moses has words, Pharaoh has spears.

Moses is not Egyptian.

Moses said the sun would shine in three days and it is true.

Moses shall no longer be a stranger among us.

Moses went up into the forbidden ground to receive God's law!

Moses will return!

Moses, come to me.

Moses, Moses, why do you question me? Why do you care? Yes!

Moses, Moses.

Moses, of course.

Moses, what will you do?

Moses!

Moses! Do not enter. There is only sorrow here.

Moses! Moses!

Moses! Stand on the rock where the people can see you and have hope!

Moses! There is a man among the sheep!

Moses?

Moses.

Moses...

Moses... your hair... your sandals.

Moses' serpent swallows up the others.

Mother, did Rameses spin this?

Mother! Mother!

Move back? Where? Into the sea?

Moves the constant stream of mud,

Must you also shame and defile our women?

My armor. War crown.

My bearers?

My brother, it was I who deceived you, not Moses.

My chariot will bring you to it.

My chariot. I will drive to Goshen.

My escort.

My eyes can best be used elsewhere, Lord Baka.

My father has many flocks,

My first born.

My God!

My heart ached for him.

My husband is not here.

My jackals have your hounds at bay

My lips might deny him, great one,

My litter can carry him.

My mother and her mother before her

My name is Lilia.

My noble one, it caught.

My people look to him for deliverance.

My smile is for a stonecutter.

My son has dealt wisely with you, Ethiopia. Welcome as a friend.

My son would be a slave.

My son, I shall build your tomb upon their crushed bodies!

My strength dried up

My tent would be favored if you joined us.

Name him!

Nearer.

Nefretiri, I have stood in the burning light of God's own presence.

Nefretiri! Have you closed your doors to make a beggar of a prince?

Nefretiri?

Neither Rameses' princely plots nor Memnet's evil lies.

Neither will I let his people go.

Never before, my brothers, has our wool brought so rich a payment.

Never did a lost sheep have so many shepherds.

No difference to you, my dove of Canaan.

No doubt, no doubt. You can overcome anything,

No first born Hebrew shall live.

No god can bring him back.

No magician's trick will set your people free.

No man has ever set foot on the forbidden slopes of Sinai.

No matter where you send me,

No name? You Bedouins know the god of Abraham?

No need to tell you how I share her joy at your return

No need, my brother.

No one knows, great Pharaoh. It is spun on the looms of the gods.

No one need ever know the shame I brought upon you.

No other choice, Pharaoh.

No pretended brother

No son could have more love for you than I.

No water for seven days.

No wine can change my love.

No, great one! You cannot breach the fire of God!

No, he was not.

No, I am not going to dance before the sheiks. Here.

No, I haven't got Rebecca.

No, I will choose my own successor

No, I will not haggle, great prince. Here's your money.

No, I will not take from him the glory and riches you have given him.

No, it comes from the desert.

No, just your lips.

No, Lilia, death will not come to you.

No, lord prince.

No, Moses.

No, Moses. We cannot see his whole purpose.

No, my love.

No, my pompous one,

No, no, no, no, no.

No, no, your wings must not be singed, my dove,

No, you are not my son.

No!

No! No!

No! No.

No! You'll be dead under them!

No.

No. God brought Ishmael and his mother, Hagar, into a good land.

No. He would grind them into the clay they mold,

No. I prayed for a son.

No. You are kneeling to a woman

No... he will not die.

None of me.

None that could not be cured by a ration of grain and a day of rest.

Nor by my hand that we are free, Pharaoh.

Nor can we!

Nor spare the arms that endlessly winnow the grain in the wind

Nor will I let Israel go.

Not among our people. You have wisdom.

Not by any god!

Not by their chains, High Priest.

Not even you. All you can think of is Moses.

Not for me, Joshua.

Not knowing in which bed she will sleep.

Not one drop of royal blood flows through his veins.

Not that purplish flower.

Not the laughter of kings,

Nothing from some

Nothing of his will harm you, my son.

Now I bring you the world... true son of Pharaoh.

Now see what you've done. Back to the palace, all of you.

Now speaks the rat that would be my ears.

Now they used the brick yokes to carry a very different burden.

Now you're cheating.

Now, all the kings of Egypt cry out to me from their tombs,

Now, go after the girl!

Now, go.

Now, he tells you to make cities without bricks!

Now, is this a day for us to have hard feelings?

Now, judge the results.

Now, look for the first time, Abiram, upon the governor of Goshen.

Now, look upon each other for the last time.

Now, the cradle.

Now, the Egyptians bow low before me.

Now, the flame you lighted burns close to the throne.

Now, therefore, go.

Now, you are mine, a slave of Egypt.

Now, you make him an excuse for your failure to build my city.

Nubians, Grandfather!

Nura, Thebes!

O' conqueror, even as the sun is exalted in the heavens.

Obey the Lord,

Of all the tribes in one piece, at one price, to Lugal here.

Of course, of course.

Of course. You've been bringing petitions against Moses for months.

Of my own free will.

Of slaves in bondage.

Of the Lord thy God in vain.

Of their children in the bondage of Egypt?

Of your own free will?

Oh, great one, let his people go,

Oh, isn't it?

Oh, let her threats be buried with her.

Oh, Moses, Moses! I cannot, I cannot.

Oh, Moses, Moses.

Oh, Moses! The gods have fashioned you for greatness.

Oh, my baby! Give me back my baby!

Oh, no!

Oh, please, Lord Baka, I beg you.

Old woman! Old woman!

One lifetime will not be half enough.

One shawl, one wife. Your choice for life.

One who asks what right you have to kill a slave.

One who loves you and will not lose you.

One who made himself a prince and judge over us.

One who will be your wife. Nothing in the world can change that. Nothing.

Only a drifting basket.

Only because they're of another race,

Only I will love you more, and trust you less.

Only it will come upon the slaves of Goshen!

Only that he died under my chariot wheels!

Only their newborn need die.

Or all of Egypt will be barren from the cataracts to the sea.

Or any plagues come near you.

Or are they free souls under God?

Or are they moist and red

Or cause rabbits to appear?

Or from my heart.

Or from the arrow that flyeth by day

Or harden it?

Or he might find his water poisoned.

Or he will raise his hand against the waters of the river.

Or is it soft as mine?

Or is it the odor of sheep?

Or let them glean straw in the fields for themselves.

Or my son

Or stagger blindly towards some mirage of lost love.

Or that envy has turned a brother against his brother.

Or the fact that she must marry the man I choose to follow me on the throne?

Or to you, Moses?

Or wail foreboding of disasters yet to come

Or we are all dead men.

Or whether the desert's hot breath

Or whether they are to be ruled by the whims of a dictator like Rameses.

Or you, perhaps.

Or you, Sephora? His grieving wife.

Or yours?

Our bodies not so white, but they are strong.

Our goats don't know your father!

Our hands are not so soft, but they can serve.

Our intention was not to create a story,

Our lips are not perfumed...

Our tents are not the columned halls of Egypt,

Our thanks to Priam. It is fabulous indeed.

Out of his own mouth comes thy judgment!

Out of the way!

Out of the way. Stand back.

Out! Out, all of you!

Over all things upon this Earth,

Pardon, pardon, royal one.

Peace be with you, sheiks of Sinai.

Peace?

Pearls of great price.

Perhaps not.

Pharaoh of Egypt! You have not yet obeyed the Lord.

Pharaoh's chariots! I've ordered men to block the pass!

Philo wrote at the time that Jesus of Nazareth walked the Earth,

Plant your tires at night beside the tribal standards,

Planters of vineyards and sowers of seeds,

Please do not shame me before my Lord.

Poured into the Avenue of Sphinxes.

Poverty and the lash.

Praise God and down into it!

Praise God I have found you!

Praise to God!

Prince Moses!

Prince of On, Prince of Memphis,

Prince of Thebes,

Princess, the raven has dropped a black feather at your door.

Pull it out of the shed.

Pull!

Pull! Pull for your lives!

Push polers, follow me.

Put away any fears or suspicions that may remain with you, my son.

Put back your things. You are not leaving.

Put no faith in a brother.

Put off thy shoes from off thy feet.

Quickly. I shall see you want for nothing.

Quiet, you chattering geese.

Rachel, help me with this brick yoke.

Raise your hands, Memnet.

Rameses does not know... yet.

Rameses has the blood of many kings.

Rameses is massing the Libyan axmen, the chariots, the Sardinian swordsmen.

Rameses might not agree with that idea.

Rameses,

Rameses, do you believe this slave deliverer is a myth?

Rameses.

Ready to be graven by cunning art and man's device.

Ready to sting the backs of the weary.

Reared you, set you before my own son,

Red pennant, stand by.

Red pennant... strike!

Release him.

Rely on you to sell your own mother for a price.

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Remember this day,

Remember your first born!

Remember, Joshua, of her own free will she's mine.

Remember, my sweet, that you must be wife to the next Pharaoh,

Remember, the tally must be the same. Not one brick less.

Royal? It is the Levite cloth of a Hebrew slave.

Run! Run!

Sacred water,

Save the bread if you can!

Save the other children? From what?

Saw you in the tent of Jethro.

Say you are not, I'll believe you are not.

Saying, This be our god, O Israel.

See that his arms are tightly stretched.

See to their comfort.

Sephora has told me of your kindness.

Sephora is the eldest.

Sephora, take him. Serve him food in our tent.

Sephora! Bring water.

Set the standard of each tribe before all the people!

Seven to choose from.

Shall I call back the guards?

Shall I summon him to Pharaoh's justice?

Shall I tell you what happened, Rameses?

Shame?

She came back among us to find her husband.

She is not worthy of your magnificence. Let my eyes...

She knew you would try to save the other children before your own son.

She shall pay for spreading his lies.

She was a faithful servant to you.

She was very beautiful, wasn't she?

She would have returned to you, shall we say, more worthy.

She's dead. She must have fallen from the balcony.

She's gone with your son to Midian.

Shield us through this night of terror, O King of the Universe.

Show me his blood on your sword.

Show that you have power above the god of Moses,

Sinai is his high place. His temple.

Since this deliverer is among their newborn,

Since you have already divided the stranger among you,

Sixteen of these lions of Pharaoh will guard its gates.

Slaves draw stone and brick. My horses draw the next Pharaoh.

Smell like them?

So beautiful is the hope of a mother!

So did the Egyptians cause the children of Israel

So don't interrupt us with trifles.

So fill your jars or go thirsty.

So it shall be done.

So it shall be written.

So let it be done.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

So let it be written.

So long as I can worship you.

So many.

So much for accusations.

So pick up her muddy clothes and go.

So Rameses tells me.

So speaks Rameses I.

So, now, my brother, we have new taskmasters.

Sokar,

Son of the Pharaoh's sister,

Sound the pursuit!

Speak... my son.

Speaking to you before the picture begins,

Spoils of Egypt!

Stand all!

Stand aside, you.

Stand aside, you. Make way.

Stand before me, both of you.

Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord!

Stone him! Stone him!

Stop her!

Stop that girl!

Stop that girl! Stop her!

Stop the stone!

Stop the stone! Stop the stone!

Strength and honor are our clothing.

Strength to you, stranger.

Stretch out my staff against the waters.

Stretching mile after mile.

Stricken from all pylons and obelisks.

Stricken from every monument of Egypt.

Stripped of all rank and earthly wealth,

Such as Philo and Josephus.

Such favor with the people can be dangerous, Great Sethi.

Summon him!

Superb!

Take care, old frog.

Take him away.

Take my child into thy hands,

Take my fastest chariot. Bring Moses to me.

Take what spoils from Egypt you will, but go!

Take your people, your cattle, your god and your pestilence.

Tears..

Tell me, Moses. I will believe you.

Tell Rameses I'm coming back to my house.

Tell the others that for seven days there will be none to drink.

Ten times you have seen the miracles of the Lord!

Thank thee, O Lord!

Thank you for your attention.

Thank you, my son.

That before death closed my eyes

That drop puts too much strain on the stone. We need more sand.

That he may live to thy service.

That he may write his commandments in our minds

That I go to Egypt.

That I may give it to your Prince of Egypt,

That is Baka, the master builder.

That is God's promise, Elisheba.

That is thy neighbor's.

That is what you have in mind.

That lash him with the fury of a taskmaster's whip.

That light on the mountainside...

That men shall know him mad.

That rabble may follow Moses into the desert today,

That the Angel of Death may pass you by.

That the child might be suckled by his true mother.

That the first born of Israel must die.

That the God of their fathers has sent me,

That thou mayest bring my people out of Egypt.

That was beyond the river Jordan.

That you are not a traitor,

That you have come back to make serpents out of sticks?

That you may know the power of the Lord,

That you may know these things are done of God...

That you may prey upon the fears of men.

That you will remember this night

That you will surely let the people go.

That you would not lead these people in revolt against me.

That you're going to be mine, all mine,

That's a hard dance you do, old man.

That's Joshua's horn!

That's Sephora. She's the oldest.

That's the thunder of horses!

The afflicted, the hopeless, the oppressed.

The Almighty has heard our cries from bondage.

The blood of Thracian g****s, the wine of love.

The chariot house.

The chariots! Run! Run! Run for your lives!

The city that he builds shall bear my name.

The city would never rise.

The conquered were made to serve the conqueror

The darkness of death will pass over us tonight.

The day you break that oath will be the last your eyes shall ever see.

The dead are not scorched in the desert of desire.

The deliverer...

The desert sun has set fire to his mind.

The destroyer will come into the midst of Egypt

The enemy to fear is in the heart of Egypt.

The evil star foretold him as the destroyer of Egypt

The evil that men should turn their brothers into beasts of burden,

The fate of Israel is not in your hands, Nefretiri.

The feet of a Hebrew slave is not the right place

The fire dies!

The first face I looked for and the last I find. Mother.

The five books of Moses.

The God of Abraham,

The God of Abraham, the Almighty God.

The God of Isaac

The god of Moses is a poor general,

The Hebrew slaves in the land of Goshen.

The Holy Bible omits some 30 years of Moses' life,

The kingdom of the Most High.

The light of eternal mind.

The light of God shines from you, Moses.

The Lord has renewed my strength and lightened my burdens.

The Lord is one!

The Lord is one! The Lord is one!

The Lord is our God! The Lord is one!

The Lord is our God. The Lord is one.

The Lord Moses, Prince of Egypt,

The Lord of Hosts will do battle for us!

The Lord was angry with me

The lotus flower blooms in the Nile's gray mud.

The lowly seed of tall cities,

The man best able to rule Egypt will follow me.

The man has courage.

The man who walked with kings now walks alone.

The master builder will not follow.

The metal is ready for the Maker's hand.

The more slaves we have, the more bricks we make.

The Moses who loved you was another man.

The old windbag.

The only mother I've ever known.

The people desert the temples.

The people have come to the river Jordan.

The Pharaoh's soldiers won't wait so long.

The priests say that Pharaoh is a god,

The Prince Moses, there on the pavilion.

The purity of white

The pylons commemorate your victory at Kadesh,

The queen of Egypt is beautiful, as he told me.

The right of a master to kill you or any slave.

The royal falcon

The same face that were mine a moment ago.

The same God who lives on the mountain?

The seed of a man

The shadow of death is on his face.

The shadow of my wisdom has fled.

The slave who would be king.

The slave, Joshua, is a stonecutter.

The slaves do not need a deliverer now.

The slaves worship their god...

The son of slaves.

The splendor of your name will last beyond the pyramids.

The stiff necked slaves die more willingly

The story of Moses.

The story takes three hours and 39 minutes to unfold.

The stranger is wise, and strong.

The strong make many. The starving make few.

The strongest tree bends.

The temple granaries are full.

The theme of this picture

The trumpets tell all the world he's come back to me.

The truth would break his dear old heart

The very dirty one there.

The water turns to blood!

The weak were made to serve the strong.

The wicked were like a troubled sea

The woman that he loves shall bear my child.

The writing of God.

Then I shall stay.

Then I, Dathan, will lead them back to Pharaoh and the brick pits.

Then let the Hebrews die.

Then let us go forth to the mountain of God,

Then look into my eyes and tell me you are not my mother.

Then rest from wandering.

Then see, for it is here.

Then stone bleeds!

Then use this to wrap your first born.

Then why are you forcing me to destroy you?

Then why aren't you kneeling at the feet of a princess?

Then you, too, shall go to Goshen

Then your love shall be my wine.

There are no strangers among those who seek God's mercy.

There are other hands, strong enough to kill.

There are so many

There are those who would pay much

There can be only one punishment for the stonecutter.

There goes your deliverer. Now, go find your straw.

There is a great light that shines from your face, Moses.

There is a noise of war in the camp.

There is no freedom without the law.

There is no magic cure, no spell to use.

There is no shame in me. How can I feel shame for the woman who bore me?

There is no shame in this.

There is the obelisk of your jubilee.

There is word in the caravans of a great one

There isn't a man from here to Horeb.

There shall no evil befall you,

There was manifest all manner of ungodliness and works of the flesh.

There will be an intermission.

There will be no new world! And no blood on this door!

There will be no time for tears.

There would be danger.

There would be peace of spirit for you, Moses,

There!

There's fire in the chariot house!

There's little time till the day of jubilee.

Therefore, I will send thee, Moses,

These are the children of misery,

These are the same hands, the same arms,

These must be ambassadors from...

These tablets of stone...

These things were ordered by themselves,

They bear the bones of Joseph, to rest in his own land.

They believe a deliverer has come to lead them from their bondage.

They call it the day of Moses.

They came with all they had, driving their Hooks

They did eat the bread of wickedness,

They do not confide in me.

They do not suffer from the thirst of passion

They gathered themselves together.

They may be your people, but do you have to wallow with them?

They sank from evil to evil

They shall remember the name of Moses,

They told me you were condemned,

They told me you were dead.

They use the old ones to do the work of greasing the stones, Lord Prince.

They were as children who had lost their faith.

They were as the children of fools

They will ask, What is his name?

They will curse the name of Moses and his god.

They're going away, Moses. The secret's going with them.

Think of us and stop hearing the cries of your people.

This child was put upon the water

This desert god is the hope of the hopeless.

This green stone from our mountains,

This is a blessed day!

This is my son.

This is not the scepter of a prince,

This is the binding tie...

This is the governor's house! You cannot enter.

This is the well of Jethro, our father. You have no right here!

This may seem an unusual procedure,

This murderer has now fled to some distant land?

This same battle continues throughout the world today.

This will change your image.

This woman drew me from the Nile

This...

Those who will not live by the law...

Thou art God!

Thou didst blow with Thy winds,

Thou shall not take the name

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night

Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Thou shalt not covet anything

Thou shalt not kill.

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.

Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the com,

Thou shalt not steal.

Thou shalt say,

Though we stand in the shadow of death,

Through it!

Through which God will work his purpose.

Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel,

Thy life giving waters are the blood of Egypt.

To all I love, Joshua, I am dead.

To bar his way.

To be stripped of spirit and hope and faith,

To be the father of a nation.

To behold your glory and receive your law.

To come down out of the mountain,

To fill in those missing years,

To know that he is.

To me you are a lily, and I want water.

To mingle with your own!

To save a Hebrew?

To see his father humbled by a son of slaves.

To see what rears itself in Goshen, a city or treason.

To serve with rigor;

To set me free

To slave and suffer in dumb anguish,

To some land flowing with milk and honey!

To the pouring hands of brick molders

To use in your service, son of Pharaoh.

To whom, Rameses? To me or to you?

Toil without reward.

Tomorrow the light of freedom will shine upon us

Tomorrow we go forth a free nation,

Tomorrow we leave for the high pastures beneath God's holy mountain.

Tomorrow will bring a new world for us, Lilia.

Tonight he is awake.

Tonight I tend the sheep.

Too many ears tie a rat's tongue.

Torn from a Levite's robe.

Torn from the pinnacle of royal power;

Toward a land unseen.

Triples. You've lost. I'll never let you win again.

Trust no woman.

Turfa!

Two golden debens to one.

Unending streams of man and beast and burden,

Unfortunately, I have no new treasure city.

Unless the desert sun has dulled your senses.

Until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord

Until he learned that he was Hebrew

Until word came of a mountain beyond the cataracts

Until, at last, at the end of human strength,

Unto Pharaoh,

Upon whose mind and heart would be written

Very well.

Wait, and you will see her.

Was consumed.

Was it a miracle that flies and lice should bloat upon their carrion

Was it because there were no graves in Egypt

Was it the staff I gave you that caused all this?

Was it the wonder of your god that fish should die

Was spun from the beards of shellfish?

Watch it from the reeds.

Watch where you're going! Watch out, you ribbon carrier!

Water girl! Water!

Water of life, give drink to the desert

Water! Water!

We are free!

We are gathered against you, Moses!

We are Levites, appointed shepherds of Israel.

We are not animals, we are men,

We are not dressed in gold and fine linen.

We are the children of Ishmael, his first born.

We are the obedient of God.

We can offer you little...

We cannot leave our people.

We cannot wait. Red pennant.

We do not even know his name.

We do not leave Egypt.

We don't stop a moving block for an old woman.

We have heard how you took ibis from the Nile

We have no skill before this... pestilence.

We march, praising his mighty name!

We meant no harm, Memnet.

We shall plant your fig tree in the new land.

We share your pain. We sympathize.

We should draw water for you and wash the desert dust from your feet.

We thought you dead.

We turned to ancient historians

We will go with our young and with our old,

We will make of them a golden calf!

We will not live by your commandments. We are free!

We're trapped against the sea! Caleb, warn the north tents!

We've been dancing it for 400 years...

Welcome home!

Welcome to my sister's son.

Well, the city's being built and I'm winning this game,

Well, well.

Well, you know, crowns are sometimes lost by smiles and dimples.

Well? What croakings of doom have you today?

Well? Who killed him?

Were branded to the Pharaoh's service.

Were you alone with Bithiah?

What about me? Think of me as his wife.

What an infernal fuss.

What are you saying?

What beauty can my lord find in these mud pits?

What change is there in me?

What deliverer could break the power of Pharaoh?

What difference to my shame?

What do you want of us?

What do you want, Nefretiri?

What does it matter? A hundred slaves die every day.

What does it mean?

What has turned you against me?

What have I left undone?

What have you done to Moses?

What I bring is worth much.

What I do now,

What I have done, I was compelled to do.

What is it, Bithiah? What did you End?

What is the death of one slave to us?

What is there in her heart, but the memory of a dead husband?

What is there in the mud of these slave pits

What is this cloth to do with me? Tell me.

What is this word?

What kind of a man?

What kind of a woman holds me captive?

What manner of death do you decree for him?

What matters is the slaves believe in him.

What nation would dare draw the sword against us?

What the gods can digest will not sour in the belly of a slave.

What will become of your children?

What will you wish for, Tuya, gold or a man?

What words can I speak that they will heed?

What would you do to influence His Excellency's clemency?

What you have buried in the Nile shall remain buried in your heart.

What?

Wheat borne stolidly on the backs of countless slaves

When darkness has covered Egypt for three days,

When he looks at me, I'm afraid.

When I cross the river of death, you will be Pharaoh in Egypt.

When Rameses builds cities mortared with the blood of our people?

When the Nile ran red, I too was afraid,

When the strong hand of the Lord leads you out of bondage!

When the sun climbs high to noon.

When their stomachs cramp with hunger,

When they hunger, they're fed.

When they walk upright and feed on temple grain.

When thou hast brought forth the people,

When you are Pharaoh, you can free your people,

When you have been bathed in scented water,

When you laid siege to the city of Saba.

When you were a condemned slave,

When you were Prince of Egypt,

When your horses tire, they're rested.

Where all men may benefit from your goodness

Where are we going, Naomi?

Where are we going?

Where could I bring you, except to Egypt?

Where every man shall reap what he has sown

Where granite sentinels stand as towers of living death

Where he sends you, I shall go.

Where he struck the river, it bleeds.

Where holy men and prophets are cleansed and purged

Where is it?

Where is this would be deliverer who would set the Hebrews free?

Where the treaders' feet churn clay and straw

Where you broke the Amorites.

Where's your whip, Dathan?

Wherever I am led or whatever I must do,

Which of my sisters did you choose?

Which spewed red mud and poisoned the water.

Which the Lord restored unto us.

Which their own .sweat and blood and sinew

While you wait to honor Moses,

While you were gone, I kept your name on his lips,

Who am I, Lord, that you should send me?

Who are you to make their lives bitter in hard bondage?

Who bringeth forth bread from the Earth.

Who can say, immortal prince?

Who else can soften Pharaoh's heart?

Who else could be your heir?

Who else could be your successor?

Who else? Memnet nursed Rameses.

Who has appointed an end to the bondage of Israel,

Who hatched this lie? Rameses?

Who is like unto Thee, O Lord?

Who is on the Lord's side,

Who is the brave one who stood against the Amalekites?

Who is the slave, and who is the Pharaoh?

Who is this fair young god come into the house of Pharaoh?

Who killed Baka?

Who mourns him now?

Who shall withstand the power of God?

Who was driven out of Egypt.

Who will lead all men to freedom.

Who will lead them out of bondage. The star proclaims his birth.

Who would free the slaves. Where is it?

Who would take a throne by force that he has earned by deeds?

Who's been worried about you day and night since you disappeared.

Whoever I choose shall have my crown...

Whose law, Moses? Yours?

Whose work is this?

Why a Hebrew, or any man, must be a slave.

Why are you dressed as a slave?

Why are you dressed like that?

Why did you kill for me, Nefretiri?

Why do soldiers come here? I put no blood on my door.

Why do we eat unleavened bread and bitter herbs, my uncle?

Why do you bring this worker of evil before me?

Why do you want to see him, Moses?

Why does a prince of Egypt kill the Pharaoh's master builder

Why have you done this?

Why have you...?

Why is everyone afraid?

Why is this night different from all others?

Why must we die?

Why must you deny me and yourself?

Why not?

Why should a slave care which Pharaoh rules?

Why should it upset you now?

Why would she leave?

Why, your will will be law in Egypt when you are crowned

Why? Tell me why!

Why? Were you afraid to look at me?

Will cool the blush of your cheek.

Will deliver us from the bondage of Egypt.

Will ever have your crown...

Will it pass, Moses? Will it pass?

Will my father free the slaves?

Will Rameses hear it if he is Pharaoh?

Will the life she gave you be more useful in the black pits of slavery?

Will you lose the throne because Moses builds a city?

Will you now free my people?

Will you swear in the name of this god that you are not my mother?

Will you take mine?

Will your little carts stop Pharaoh's Chariots?

With a strong hand thou dost

With our flocks and with our herds will we go,

With our sons and with our daughters,

With so many slaves, you could build... an army.

With the blood of our male children!

With the blood of your master builder red upon his hands.

With the scorpion, the cobra and the lizard for subjects.

With this and Ethiopia,

Without breaking the rhythm of his stride.

Woe unto thee, O Israel.

Wondering if they call the memory of past triumphs

Worship whatever gods you please,

Would a God who's shown you such wonders

Would deliver the Hebrews.

Would make rebellion against me.

Would not be wise enough to rule Egypt.

Would you bury the old woman alive in a tomb of rock?

Would you mingle the blood of slaves with your own?

Would you please your Pharaoh, Moses?

Would you take from Moses all that I have given him?

Would you undo all that I have done for him?

Yes

Yes, but he's not returned!

Yes, I can see him!

Yes, Joshua.

Yes, my sweet. I will let him live.

Yes, that one. He may serve my purpose.

Yes, the laughter of kings

Yes, this is our son.

Yes!

Yes. And I am afraid for him.

Yes. But very few have eyes as beautiful as yours.

Yes. It is empty because he is not a myth.

Yes. Only his face.

Yes. She was beautiful...

Yes. That's better.

Yes. This is for the temple ceremony.

You and your children shall be given freedom.

You and your family shall be taken from Goshen tonight.

You are God's messenger! He has set the day of deliverance.

You are God's torch, that lights the way to freedom.

You are not pleased to see me here.

You are not worthy to receive these Ten Commandments.

You are nothing.

You are the chosen one.

You are the only thing I regret leaving.

You are the shepherd girl that Moses married?

You believe that?

You believe you've changed, but you haven't.

You belong to me, to Nefretiri, to Sethi, to all those who love you.

You bring a warm smile with your cool water.

You call yourself a prophet, a man of God,

You can carry your own carton.

You can learn best from her.

You cared nothing for my throne,

You charged me to bring the people to this holy mountain,

You couldn't even kill him.

You croak too much against Moses.

You crocodile!

You did not doubt me when I held you as you took your first step.

You didn't at the palace this morning, you know?

You do not speak like a slave.

You don't look any leaner. You're both very generous with your advice.

You find no shame in this?

You foolish, stupid man!

You fools! Talk of empty hearts before the Pharaoh's daughter.

You gave me this staff to rule over scorpions and serpents,

You gave them one day in seven to rest.

You haggle with me like a seller of melons in the marketplace?

You have a strong new son!

You have been able to erase it?

You have been my joy.

You have come far.

You have conquered, Moses.

You have mounted to the sun on golden wings.

You have rat's ears and a ferret's nose.

You have restored Egypt to her greatness.

You have sinned a great sin in the sight of God!

You have strong faith in this God, Sephora.

You have whined like frightened children in the night.

You haven't much time!

You held me in your arms.

You hold your tongue almost as well as I hold my temper.

You keep sounding the alarm, Gershom. But stay here till your mother comes.

You know it is death to strike an Egyptian?

You let Moses kill my son.

You lost him when he went to seek his God.

You lying adder! You'll destroy yourself with your own venom

You may be the lovely dust

You must lead them out of Egypt!

You need nothing more.

You needn't have painted your nails, Lulua.

You needn't laugh. Moses may not choose you either!

You offer me the world when you cannot even bring me the deliverer.

You only thought to keep Moses here.

You ordered me to finish this city The strain in that stone is too great

You prayed for a basket?

You prepare for a marriage that will never be.

You prophets and priests made the gods,

You put a sword in their hands to kill us!

You rot our bodies, steal hope from our souls.

You seem strong enough.

You shall not defeat me by your death.

You shall see darkness cover Egypt

You stay...

You stubborn, splendid, adorable fool.

You take too much upon yourself!

You taught them not to live by bread alone.

You there!

You think I care whose son he is?

You think when you are in my arms it will be his face you will see, not mine?

You thought I was evil when I went to Moses, and you were right.

You thought that by losing to me you would win for Moses.

You told Moses to make bricks without straw.

You walk like a prince. And you tight like a warrior.

You were not born Prince of Egypt, Moses...

You were the woman who was caught between the stones.

You will be King of Egypt.

You will be my wife.

You will be the glory of Egypt, my son.

You will come to me or they will never leave Egypt.

You will cry for the mercy of death.

You will deliver us. The finger of God points the way to you.

You will destroy Egypt or Egypt will destroy you.

You will die on your feet, stonecutter.

You will glean the stubble of the fields by night.

You will have need of a scepter.

You will make a god for us!

You will never do the things to me you would have done to Moses.

You will never wear it.

You will not be there, Joshua.

You will not kill my son.

You will not see his body.

You will repeat this to Bithiah!

You will see him walk with his head among the eagles.

You will see it, Memnet.

You women, do you want to see your men killed?

You won't die, old crocodile.

You would let beauty such as this go unseen?

You would let such a flower go ungathered?

You would not dare strike Pharaoh's son!

You would not harm my son?

You would not let him do this to me.

You would prefer him as Pharaoh.

You would turn Sethi against me.

You, Moses.

You, mud carriers, throw this carrion to the vultures.

You, take his place.

You, there's other swine to water.

You!

You! Out of the pit!

You'll be Pharaoh by sunset, Rameses.

You'll be the prince of some desert province

You'll cheat death the way you cheat me at hounds and jackals.

You'll lose your debens if Moses keeps me waiting any longer.

You're a conqueror, and I am your captive for life.

You're a sharp clawed, treacherous little peacock.

You're strange to the pits.

You've been drinking honey wine!

You've brought the wrath of Pharaoh upon us!

You've guzzled enough. Bring those bricks up and get on.

You've heard Memnet grumbling all your life.

You've seen me drive my chariot.

You've seen me use my whip.

Your back is unscarred.

Your eyes are sharp as they are beautiful.

Your eyes had best find the deliverer, Dathan, or you will have no eyes.

Your fragrance is like the wine of Babylon.

Your God is my God.

Your god listens to you, Moses.

Your husband is in the house of the dead.

Your Lord is the governor of Goshen.

Your love for me is stronger than the power of any god.

Your ministers will send for me.

Your name will live when the pyramids are dust.

Your own curse is on him.

Your place is in the palace halls.

Your praises in his ears. But now, unless you can succeed,

Your shadow fell between me and my father,

Your shadow now fills all things with death.

Your shoulder should not bear a burden, old woman.

Your tongue would dig your grave, Memnet.

Your voice is not strange.

Yours was the face I saw above my cradle,

Yours, Rameses, will be nowhere.

...by living. You will let him live!

...to destroy you. To de...?

A bush that burns? No.

A man. What?

A piece of Hebrew cloth! Memnet may have dropped it.

A pillar of fire! It is the work of God!

A pleasant task. Indeed!

A princess of Egypt! From the house of Pharaoh!

A strong son. A happy union.

A young man? Only one?

Aaron knows the art of the temple!

After her! After her! Hold him!

Agreed? Agreed.

Am I to be bathed or drowned? I'll hold it for you.

Amalekites. Amalekites!

and make green the meadow. Aaron.

And Moses? He is lower than the dust.

And so is patience. Yours?

And you, my only love. Uh huh.

Are you afraid of Moses? Yes.

as we go forth from Egypt. I shall go with you, Moses.

Ben Caleb! Thank you!

Bring 100 women with baskets. Elisheba, bring your basket.

Bring shovels, pounders, mattocks! Hear me! Hear me!

Bring the Hebrew in. Bring the Hebrew in.

But I have saved your son, Moses. It is not my son who will die!

But I... Here, let me pour the water!

But it is possible to learn. No doubt.

But this well has never run dry. And the river is high.

Can we take the cattle? We're moving to the gates.

Can you think of nothing else? I don't know. I've never tried!

Come on! Come on! Yes! Come on!

Dathan? Yes. Dathan.

Dear great one. Why not, kitten?

Death to the slaves! Death to the slaves!

Death to their god! Death to their god!

Do not look upon him. Traitor to Pharaoh.

Do you know where we're going? To hell, I hope!

Do you think he's married? Look. There's real trouble.

Do you think they could bend them? Oh, Moses! Moses!

Does he call me or you? You! Water girl! I'm thirsty.

Don't come back without her. We'll find her.

enter into the house of Egypt. Meaning war?

From what? From Pharaoh's decree

Go on. All of you. Musicians, too. We wouldn't hurt Bithiah.

Harness the mules! Your stonecutter did this to me!

He was only a child. Leave me.

He will not be here, my father. What?

He's eaten a whole bunch of dates! Could he be dangerous?

He's the Sheik of Midian! Then let him breed sons

Hear me! He cannot hear you.

Help us! Never mind the wheel!

Here come treasure wagons! Spoils of Egypt.

Here! Take him! Wait for me! Wait for me!

His robe is not Egyptian. Who cares? He's a man.

His work is done. His mother!

How can we fight chariots? Nothing can stop them!

I agree with him. May your name be exalted on Earth,

I am your brother Moses. No! Get ready to leave. Hurry!

I don't know. Yes, you do.

I don't want to hear anything. What about Memnet?

I'd be happy in either. But where is Prince Moses?

I'll talk to them. Talk to them? Get stones!

I've been his father. Ambition knows no father.

If only sheep were men! Unmarried men!

It may be, my son. Moses! Moses!

It shimmers like the Nile. What is it? How is it made?

Jethro's mark is on the well. They can't read either.

Joshua! Run to the prince and beg mercy.

Joshua! Run, Lilia, run! The way is clear.

let him come to me! I am!

Look at his sandals! Egyptian!

Lord Prince, this man speaks treason. It is not treason to want freedom.

Men made slaves. Which god?

Mercy from Rameses?! No, no.

Mercy, Prince Moses! Come here.

Mercy? What have you done? Not for myself, Lord Prince.

Miriam is always right. Yes, I'm going back for more jars.

Moses! Do you hear, Memnet?

Moses! Joshua, what is it?

Moses! Look!

Moses... To find the meaning of what I am.

My father. My son.

My son? No, my son.

No. Then come back with me.

Now, we have no leader! Don't be fooled!

Of course we should! Here's fresh water.

One would be enough for me! If he were Moses!

Or the race that bred me? God of my fathers.

Our father is Jethro. He's Sheik of Midian.

Pestilence will be everywhere! Were it seven times seven days,

Pharaoh is pleased? With the obelisk, yes,

Pharaoh would kill us all. Not if a god of Egypt went before us!

Pharaoh's soldiers! Or worse!

Please let me go to my home. You are at home.

Prince Moses! The blessings of the god Amun Ra

Push pole men! You, back where you belong!

Rameses cares. You won't live to tell him.

See where the Lord will lead him. Yes, Mother.

Send them away. The people have been plagued

Sephora, give him water. Water! Bless you!

Shall we come and help you get it? Memnet, send the girls away.

Slave? Death?

Strength to you, sheiks of Sinai. May God guide your heart.

Swear it. I will be silent.

Tell me. She was taking it to Rameses...

Tell us! Where is it?

That's it. Joshua!

The death cry is everywhere. Some devil's curse! Look!

The deliverer. Would you play at words with me?

The gods of Egypt. An idol worshipper!

The golden spoils we took from Egypt! There!

The herbs... Faster! Take the other road!

The old nurse, Memnet... Go away.

The point of the sword... Let him rave on,

The power of God has freed us. Enough of your words!

The snubber is ready. Green pennant.

The stone will break. There are 2,000 slaves on the ropes.

The water is for you. I thank you.

The whole city calls his name. I hear them, Nefretiri.

Then I could have any man! Gold will never fill an empty heart.

Then I shall follow you. Shall you?

Then kill me, master butcher! Moses!

Then who is to lead us? You, Dathan!

There was another. Yes.

They are my people. All are God's people.

They call it silk. The ambassador from Jericho.

They have Moses. Is that a riddle?

They turn from the gods. What gods?

They will stop for me! A charging chariot knows no rank.

They'll be burning, Joshua! Eleazar, hang this on the wagon.

They'll scatter the flock! Desert thieves!

This man makes himself a god. I prefer him as a man.

To destroy the first born of Israel. Oh, God!

Today he sleeps. Who sleeps?

Treason? Judge now if I spoke truly.

Until you came. My son, if you love me...

Water, noble one? No, wine... the wine of beauty.

We drew this water! Out of the way, girl!

We have no towel. My veil will serve.

We must have faith! Faith in what? You, Aaron?

We serve no masters now! Yes, but not for long.

We should give him of our flocks. And let him choose.

Weak use? Moses, what have you done to us?

What can you give him in its place? I gave him life.

What child? Bithiah took him from the river.

What do you see, Sephora? What are you looking at?

What gifts do you bring? We bring you the word of God.

What have you found? The answer to my prayers.

What is she to you? An old woman.

What is the word, Joshua? The word is given!

What's done is forgotten. It is not forgotten.

What's the alarm, Joshua? Pharaoh's chariot!

Where did you hear this? From Moses.

Where is the girl, Lilia? Gone.

Where shall they be placed? Five thousand cubits, one...

Where there is death? No! Where there is food!

Where was his body found? Buried in the sand, royal one.

Where's Rebecca? Here's Rebecca!

Which, Moses? Which will it be?

Who are they? All that remain of my children.

Who can...? No, Moses, leave the world outside.

Whose word is that? One who knows.

Why didn't you say no? She didn't think of it.

Why have you come here? Because Moses will come here.

Will it hold? After this day,

Yes, every day. Lilia is no slave, Dathan!

Yes, that is... The old windbag.

Yes! By the will of God! Who knows the will of God?

Yet you struck him? Why? To save the old woman.

Yochabel! Help me!
