[ Rameses ] You don't thinkwe'll get in trouble for this, doyou?. [ Moses ] No, not a chance. Why do the gods torment me... with such reckless, destructive, - blasphemous sons?. - Father, hearwhat I-- Be still! Pharaoh speaks. I seek to build an empire, and your only thought is to amuseyourselves... by tearing it down. Have I taughtyou nothing?. You mustn't be so hard on yourself, Your Majesty. You're an excellent teacher. It's notyour fault your sons learned nothing. True. - They learned blasphemy. - Father, the fault is mine. I goaded Rameses on, and so I am responsible. Hmm. Responsible. Doyou know the meaning ofthat word, Rameses?. I understand, Father. Anddoyou understand the task for which your birth has destinedyou? The ancient traditions. When I pass into the next world, then you will be the morning and evening star. One damaged temple does not destroy centuries oftradition. But one weak link can break the chain... ofa mightydynasty! [ Disgusted Sigh ] You have my leave to go. Father. Father?. You know it was really my fault. Mustyou be so hard on him?. Moses, you will never have to carry a burden... Iike the crown I will pass to Rameses. He must not allow himself to be led astray, not even byyou, my son. All he cares about is-- is your approval. I know he will live up toyour expectations. He only needs the opportunity. Maybe. Maybe so. Go now. I shall seeyou both tonight. [ Whistling ] - Well, that went well. -[Rameses ] Just go away. Could have been worse. "The weak link in the chain. "" That's what he called me. [ Sighs ] Well, you are rather pathetic. I rresponsible, ignorant of the traditions. He practically accused me ofbringing down the dynasty. Yeah, I can see it now. There go the pyramids! - [ Chuckling ] - You can laugh about it. Statues cracking and toppling over. The Nile drying up. Single-handedly, you will manage to bring the greatest kingdom on Earth to ruin. Tell me this, Moses. Why is it that every time you start something, I'm the one who ends up in trouble?. Ah, man! Oh. - [LoudSplash] - Get down here! - Ah, it's Rameses. You're in trouble. - - I thinkyou owe us an apology. - Oh, mynewthing! - I am so upset! - You might as well. - You'llpayfor this. - We're gonna tell the Pharaoh! - Hmm. -[Both Chattering, Exclaiming] Hey. I figured it out. - Oh, look at me. I'm drenched again. - - You know what your problem is, Rameses?. - What?. - You care too much. - And your problem is, you don't care at all. Oh, in that case, I suppose you care a lot more than I do... that we're late for the banquet, for example. [ Panting ] I'm done for. - Fatherwill kill me. - Don't worry. Nobodywill even notice us coming in. [Crowd Cheering] " Nobodywill even notice."" [ Laughs, Groans ] Ah, theyoung princes. Rameses, you were just named prince regent. You are now responsible for overseeing all the temples. I suggest you get over there... and thankyour father. Apparently, Moses, -[ Cheering Continues ] - someone thought he... just needed the opportunity. - [ Cheering Continues ] - My lord Pharaoh. I propose that the high priests offer tribute... to their new regent. [ Pharaoh ] An excellent idea. Hotep! Huy! - Huy. - Hmm?. - The Midian girl. - That's a good idea! Go get her. By the power of Ra, we present foryour delectation and delight... an exotic apparition stolen from a faraway land. [ Crowd Gasps ] [ Angry Grunt ] -[Applause ] - [ Moses Gasps ] - We offeryou this delicate desert flower. - [ Camel Grunts ] - [ Screams ] - [ Crowd Chuckling ] [ Grunting ] Let us inspect this... desert flower. -[ Crowd Gasping, Laughing] - More like a desert cobra. [ Laughing ] Not much of a snake charmer, are you?. That's why I give her to you. - I won't be given to anyone. - No, that's generous, but-- Especially an arrogant, pampered palace brat! [ Chuckling ] Are you going to let her talk toyou like that?. You will show the proper respect for a prince of Egypt. But I am showing you all the respectyou deserve-- none! - [ Gasping ] - No. Wait! - Be still. - Untie this rope! - I demandyouset me free! - Be still. - Let go! - As you wish. Aah! Ohh! [ Crowd Laughing] [ Laughing ] You there! Have her dried off... and sent to Prince Moses' chambers. If it pleases you, Father, my first act as regent... is to appoint Moses... as royal chief... architect. [ Crowd Cheering ] [ Sighs ] [ Mutters ] Well-- [ Clears Throat ] Right. [ Inhales ] - [ Gasps ] - [ Muffled Speaking ] [ Muffled Whining ] [ Gasps ] [Camel Groaning] Shh. Come on. [Men Chattering Quietly] Guards. [ Both ] Prince Moses. Uh... there's a-a man tied up in my room. - Well, look into it. - [ Both ] Right away, sire. [ Chuckles ] [Midian Girl] Please, I need water. - I have a long journey ahead of me. - May God protect you. Thankyou. Hut-hut. -[ Clattering] - Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I-- - Oh, please forgive me. I-- - [ Chuckles ] I didn't expect to see... you... here, of all places, -at our door. at-at - Mmm, at last! - [ Chuckles ] At last?. Didn't I tell you, Aaron?. I knew he would return to us when he was ready. Miriam, doyou want us flogged?. I knewyou cared about our freedom. Freedom?. Whywould I care about that?. - Miriam! - Because you're-- well, you're our brother. - What? - Be-- [ Sighs ] - They never told you?. - Who never told me what?. But you're here. You must know. - Be careful, slave! - Oh, my good prince. Um, she's-she's exhausted from the day's work. Uh, not that it was too much. We-- We quite enjoyed it. But-But she's confused and knows not to whom she speaks. I know to whom I speak, Aaron. I know who you are. - You are not a prince of Egypt. - Miriam. - What did you say?. - Your Highness, pay her no heed. C-Come, Miriam. May I discuss something with you?. No, Aaron. No! Please, Moses, you must believe! You were born of my mother, Yocheved. - That's enough. - - Stop it. - You are our brother! Nowyou go too far. You shall be punished. No! Please, uh, Your Highness. She's ill. She's very ill. We beg your forgiveness. - Please, Miriam, let us go. - No, Aaron. Our mother setyou adrift in a basket to saveyour life! Save my life?. From who?. Ask the man thatyou call "" Father."" - How dareyou?. - God saved you to be our deliverer. - Enough ofthis. - And you are, Moses. You are the deliverer. - I said, enough! - [ Moans ] You will regret this night.

They might have risen against us. Father, tell me you didn't do this. Moses, sometimes, for the greater good, sacrifices must be made. [ Panting ] Sacrifices?. Oh, my son. Theywere only slaves. Moses? Is this where you found me?. Moses, please try to understand. So-- So everything I thought, everything I am, is a lie. No. You are our son, and we love you. Why did you choose me?. We didn't, Moses. The gods did. This is your home my son Here the river broughtyou And it's here the river meant To beyour home Nowyou know the truth, love Now forget and be content When the gods send you a blessing You don't askwhy it was sent [ Sighs ] Last night, the gods granted me a vision.

[Rameses ] This isjust the beginning. A gateway will open to an entire new city ofwhite limestone, more dazzling than the sun. - And here, a statue of Hapi. -[Whip Cracks ] I said, hurry! -...two great column halls. -[Miriam ] Stop it! - Somebody's got to stop this! - There's nothing we can do.

[ Panting ] [ All Gasping ] Moses! Moses, what's going on?. Moses! Moses! - Moses! - Let me go! - No, wait. - You saw what happened. I just killed a man. We can take care ofthat. I will make it so it never happened. Nothing you can say can change what I've done. I am Egypt, the morning and the evening star. Ifl say day is night, it will be written, and you will be what I sayyou are. I sayyou are innocent. Whatyou say does not matter. You don't understand. I can't stay here any longer. - Moses! - No! All I've ever known to be true is a lie. [ Panting ] I'm not who you think I am. What areyou talking about?. Go ask the man I once called "" Father."" [ Sighs ] Moses?. Please. Good-bye, brother. Moses! Moses! [ Grunts ] No. [ Grunts ] Aah! [ Frustrated Grunt ] [Wind Howling] - Aaah! - [ Camel Snorts ] [ Grunting ] [ Coughs ] Hey, wait. Please.

And let us also give thanks for the presence... of this brave, young man whom we honor here tonight. - [ Chattering, Applauding ] - Please, sir, I wish you wouldn't. I've done nothing in my life worth honoring. First, you rescue Tzipporah from Egypt, - then you defend myyounger daughters from brigands. - [ Giggling ] You think that is nothing?. It seems you do not know what is worthy ofhonor. A single thread in a tapestry Though its color brightly shine Can never see its purpose In a pattern ofthe grand design And the stone that sits on the very top Ofthe mountain's mighty face Does it think it's more important Than the stones that form the base So how can you see whatyour life is worth Orwhere yourvalue lies You can never see through the eyes of man You must look atyour life Look atyour life through heaven's eyes [Crowd] La-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La, la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la - Lai-lai-lai, lai-lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai, lai-lai-la - Dance with me. No, I don't know how. [ Singing Continues ] [Continues] [Jethro] A lake ofgold in the desertsand Is less than a cool, fresh spring And to one lost sheep a shepherd boy Is greater than the richest king Ifa man lose everything he owns Has he truly lost his worth Or is it the beginning - Ofa new and brighter birth - [ Bleati ng ] So how do you measure the worth ofa man In wealth or strength or size In how much he gained or how much he gave The answer will come The answer will come to him who tries To look at his life through heaven's eyes And that's why we share all we have with you Though there 's little to be found When all you've got is nothing There 's a lot to go around No life can escape being blown about By the winds of change and chance - And though you never know all the steps - Dance with me. - No, I -- No. No! - You must learn to join the dance You must learn tojoin the dance [ Crowd] La-la-la Lee-lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lee-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lee-lai-lai, lai-lai-lai-lai, lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lee-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lee-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lai-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai, lee-lai-lai Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai So how do you judge what a man is worth By what he bui lds or buys You can never see with your eyes on earth Look through heaven's eyes Look at your life Look at your life Look atyourlife through heaven's Eyes [ Drumming ] Mmm. I love you. [ Bleating ] [ Inhales Deeply] Ahh! [ Bleats ] [ Sighs ] [ Bleats ] It's too early for this. [ Sighs ] [Bleating] [ Gasps ] [Whispering Voice ] Moses. Moses. Moses. Moses. Here I am. [Voice ] Take the sandals from your feet, for the place on which you stand is holy ground. [ Rolling Sounds ] Who are you?. [ Echoing ] I am that I am. I don't understand. I am the God ofyour ancestors, Abraham, Isaac andJacob. [ Miriam 's Voice ] You were born ofmy mother, Yocheved. You are our brother. What do You want with me?. I have seen the oppression ofMy people in Egypt... and have heard their cry. - [ Man Screams ] - [ Moses ] Stop it! Leave that man alone! [ God] So I have come down to deliver them out ofslavery... and bring them to a good land, a land flowing with milk and honey. And so, unto Pharaoh, I shall send... you. Me?. Wh-Who am I to lead these people?. They'll never believe me. They won't even listen. I shall teachyou what to say. [Moses' Voice ] Let mypeople go! But I was their enemy. I was the prince of Egypt, the son of the man who slaughtered their children. You've-- You've chosen the wrong messenger. H-How can I even speak to these people?. Who made man's mouth? Who made the deaf, the mute, the seeing or the blind? Did not I? Now go! [ Panting ] Oh, Moses, I shall be with you when you go to the king ofEgypt. But Pharaoh will not listen. So I will stretch out My hand... and smite Egypt... with all My wonders. Take the staff in your hand, Moses. With it, you shall do My wonders. I shall be with you, Moses. - [ Panti ng ] - Moses. [ Whispering ] Moses. [ Bleati ng ] [NoAudible Dialogue] But, Moses, you arejust one man. Tzipporah, please. - [ Sighs ] -[Laughter] Lookatyourfamily. [ Chattering ] They are free. They have a future. They have hopes and dreams... and the promise of a life with dignity. That is what I want for my people. And that is why I must do the task... that God has given me. I'm coming with you. [ All Grunting ] [Middle Eastern ] [ Continues ] [Stops ] Rameses. Moses?. Is it really?. [ Chuckling ] Moses! - Rameses! - Where have you been?. I tookyou for dead. [ Both Laughing ] Look at you! Pharaoh. Well, look atyou. What on earth areyou dressed as?. Oh, Rameses, it's so good to seeyou. [Hotep ] Excuse me, Your Majesty. We are compelled to remind you this man committed a serious crime against the gods. We are loathe to bring it up, mind you. The law clearly states the punishment for such a crime-- We hesitate to say it. - Death! - Be still. Pharaoh speaks. I am the morning and the evening star. Rameses. - Itshall be as I say. - [ Sighs ] I pardon forever all crimes ofwhich he stands accused... and will have it known that he is... our brother Moses, the prince of Egypt. [ Crowd Gasping, Murmuring] Rameses, in my heart, you are my brother, but things cannot be as they were. I see no reason why not. You know I am a Hebrew, and the God of the Hebrews came to me. What?. He commands that you let His people go. [ Crowd Murmuring] Commands?. Behold... the power ofGod. [ Crowd Gasps ] [Hissing] Well, uh, impressive. Hmm. verywell, Moses. I'll play along.

[ Shouting, Cheering ] [ Chuckling ] All right, Moses. I know you. What's this really about?. Rameses, look. What do you see?. A greater Egypt than that of my father. That is not what I see. [ Chuckles ] Moses, I cannot change what you see. I have to maintain the ancient traditions. I bear the weight of my father's crown. Doyou still not understand what Seti was?. He was a great leader. His hands bore the blood ofthousands of children. Hmph. Slaves. My people. And I can no longer hide in the desert while they suffer... atyour hands. So... you have returned... only to free them. I'm sorry. Yes. I had hoped... that-- I do not know this God. Neitherwill I let your people go. Rameses, please, you must listen-- I will not be the weak link! Tell your people as oftoday... theirworkload has been doubled, thanks toyour God. Or is it thanks... toyou?. [ Sighs ] It's Moses. [ Groans ] Moses! Ohh. So, Moses, how does it feel when you get struck to the ground?. I didn't mean to cause you more pain. I'm just trying to do as God told me. God?. When did God start caring about any of us?. In fact, Moses, when did you start caring about slaves?. Was it when you found out thatyou were one of us?. Don't listen to him. No, he's-- he's right. I did not see because I did not wish to see. Oh, you didn't see because you didn't wish to see. Ah! Well, that makes everything fine then, doesn't it?. - Aaron! - [ Gasps ] You shameyourself. Miriam. I'm so sorry. [ Sighs ] Moses, hearwhat I say. I have been a slave... all my life, and God has never answered my prayers until now. God saved you from the river, He saved you in all yourwanderings, and even now He saves you from the wrath of Pharaoh. God will not abandon you, so don't you abandon us. Miriam. Where areyou going?. M-Miriam. The ball disappears. Where is it?. In his hand. [ All Laughing ] [ Panting ] Rameses! Let my people go! [ Laughs ] Still gnawing away at that bone, arewe?. Carry on. You cannot keep ignoring us. Enough! I will hear no more ofthis Hebrew nonsense. Bring him to me. - Moses! - No! [God] Take thestaff inyourhand, Moses. Father. - It's-- - Blood! [ Guard] Blood! Oh, blood! [ Shouting, Screaming ] Hotep! Huy! Explain this to me! - Ah! - Rest assured, Your Majesty-- Uh, yes, we were going to demonstrate the superior might... of our gods. Uh-- [ Clears Throat ] By the power of Ra! [ Chuckles ] [ Laughs ] Abandon this futile mission, Moses. I've indulged you long enough. This must now be finished. No, Rameses. It is only beginning. But, Moses, d-didn'tyou see what happened?. The priests did the same thing. Pharaoh still has the power over our lives. Yes, Aaron, it's true. Pharaoh has the power. He can take awayyour food, your home, your freedom. He can take away your sons and daughters. With one word, Pharaoh can take away yourvery lives. But there is one thing he cannot take away from you: your faith. Believe, forwe will see God's wonders. [Thunder Rumbling] [ Chorus In Whisper] Thus saith the Lord Sinceyou refuse to free mypeople - Sinceyou refuse to free mypeople - Since you refuse All through the land ofEgypt [ Growing Louder ] I send a pestilence, a plague - Into your house, into your bed - [ Woman Gaspi ng ] - Into your streams Into your streets - H m m.

Rameses, please, talk to me. We could always talk here. [ Sighs ] This place. So many memories. I remember the timeyou... switched the heads ofthe gods ofthe temple of Ra. [ Sighs ] Ifl recall correctly, you were there switching heads right along with me. No, it was you. I didn't do that. Oh, yes, you did. You put the hippo on the crocodile, and the crocodile-- On the falcon. - Yes! - The priest thought it was a horrible omen and fasted for two months. Fatherwas furious. You were always getting me into trouble. But then-- [ Chuckles ] you were always there to... get me out oftrouble again. Hmmph. Why can't things be the way theywere before?. Father. It's so dark. I'm frightened. Why is he here?. Isn't that the man who did all this?. Yes. But one must wonder... why. Because no kingdom should be made on the backs ofslaves. Rameses, your stubbornness is bringing this misery upon Egypt. It would cease if onlyyou would let the Hebrews go. I will not be dictated to. I will not be threatened. I am the morning and the evening star. I am Pharaoh. Something else is coming. Something much worse than anything before. Please, let go of your contempt for life... before it destroys everything you hold dear. Think ofyour son! I do. You Hebrews have been nothing but trouble. My father had the right idea about how to deal with your people. - Rameses-- - And I think it's time I finished the job. - Rameses! - And there shall be a great cry in all of Egypt... such as never has been or everwill be again! [ Gasps ] Rameses, you bring this upon yourself. [Moses ] Godhas come to me again, saying, ""Take a lamb... and with its blood... mark the lintel andposts ofevery door, for tonight...
