" "And certainly We overtook Pharaoh's people with droughts and diminution of fruits that they might be mindful. But when good befell them they said: This is due to us. And when evil afflicted them, they attributed it to the ill-luck of Moses and those with him. Surely their evil fortune is only from Allah, but most of them know not. And they said: Whatever sign thou mayest bring to us to charm us therewith we shall not believe in thee. So We sent upon them widespread death, and the locusts and the lice and the frogs and the blood -- clear signs. But they behaved haughtily and they were a guilty people. And when the plague fell upon them, they said: O Moses, pray for us to thy Lord as He has made promise with thee. If thou remove the plague from us, we will certainly believe in thee and will let the Children of Israel go with thee. But when We removed the plague from them till a term which they should attain, lo they broke (their promise).

Additional quotes by Moses
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp; and Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle; and Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord. Now, therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known a man by lying with him; but all the women-children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
Pharaoh said: And what is the Lord of the worlds? He said: The Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, if you would be sure. (Pharaoh) said to those around him: Do you not hear? He said: Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of old. (Pharaoh) said: Surely your messenger, who is sent to you, is mad. He said: The Lord of the East and the West and what is between them, if you have any sense. (Pharaoh) said: If thou takest a god besides me, I will certainly put thee in prison. He said: Even if I show thee something plain? (Pharaoh) said: Show it, then, if thou art of the truthful. So he cast down his rod, and lo! it was an obvious serpent; And he drew forth his hand, and lo! it appeared white to the beholders.
