At ang bilang ng mga laryo, na kanilang ginagawang dati ay siya rin ninyong iaatang sa kanila; wala kayong babawasin: sapagka't sila'y mga pagayongayon; kaya't sila'y dumadaing, na nagsasabi, Bayaan mo kaming yumaon at maghain sa aming Dios.
Exodo 5:8
Arcana Coelestia # 7095
7095. 'Who is Jehovah whose voice I am to hear' means regarding the Lord whose admonition they should listen to, that is to say, thinking that was of a contrary nature regarding Him. This is clear from the meaning here of the word 'voice' as an admonition, for it is used to refer to what Moses and Aaron said to Pharaoh, dealt with in 7090; and from the meaning of 'hearing' as obeying, dealt with in 2542, 3869, 5017, so that 'hearing the voice' means obeying or listening to an admonition. The reason why the Lord is meant by the one whose admonition Pharaoh refused to listen to is that in the Word 'Jehovah' is used to mean no one other than the Lord, see above in 7091.
