Nehemiah 9:10

10 You performed awesome signs ^{▼▼ Heb “signs and wonders.” This phrase is a hendiadys. The second noun functions adjectivally, while the first noun retains its full nominal sense: “awesome signs” or “miraculous signs.”} against Pharaoh, against his servants, and against all the people of his land, for you knew that the Egyptians ^{▼▼ Heb “they”; the referent (the Egyptians) has been specified in the translation for clarity.} had acted presumptuously ^{▼▼ Or “arrogantly” (so NASB); NRSV “insolently.”} against them. You made for yourself a name that is celebrated to this day.
