ሙሳም አለ ፡ - « ጌታችን ሆይ ! አንተ ለፈርዖንና ለሹሞቹ በቅርቢቱ ሕይወት ጌጥን ብዙ ገንዘቦችንም በእርግጥ ሰጠህ ፡ ፡ ጌታችን ሆይ ! ከመንገድህ ያሳስቱ ዘንድ ( ሰጠሃቸው ) ፡ ፡ ጌታችን ሆይ ! ገንዘቦቻቸውን አጥፋ ፡ ፡ በልቦቻቸውም ላይ አትም ፡ ፡ አሳማሚን ቅጣት እስከሚያዩ አያምኑምና ፡ ፡ »
Moses prayed , " Our Lord , You have bestowed upon Pharaoh and his nobles pomp and wealth in the present life , whereby they lead people astray from Your path . Our Lord , destroy their riches and harden their hearts , so that they shall not believe until they are faced with grievous punishment . "
