American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and he was mighty in his words and works.
in meekness {Or, instructing}correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,
I will therefore chastise him, and release him. {Many ancient authorities insert verse 17 Now he must needs release unto them at the feast one prisoner. Compare Matthew 27:15; Mark 15:6; John 18:39. Others add the same words after verse 19.}
{Or, Endure unto chastening}It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father chasteneth not?
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth,And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
