They knew the signs were true and still refused.

Musa sent to Firaun and his chiefs

The next Messenger
Musawith Allah's signs
sent to
Firaun and chiefsrulers of Egypt
they
wronged the signsout of stubbornness
Why they refused
not enough proofthey were unsure
prideconvinced inside, denied outside

After Nuh, Hud, Salih, Lut and Shuayb, Allah sent Musa with clear signs to Firaun, the ruler of Egypt, and his chiefs. They rejected them out of injustice and stubbornness. Ibn Kathir cites another verse: they denied the signs though they were convinced of them inside. See how the corrupters ended.

You know your partner is right about the money. You can see it in the numbers. But admitting it feels like losing. Pride can make you argue against what you already know.

I would accept the truth if it were clear enough.

Sometimes the truth is clear, and only my pride stands in the way.

Try this

Admit you were wrong about one small thing today, out loud, to the person concerned.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Then after them We sent Musa with Our signs to Fir'awn and his chiefs, but they wrongfully rejected them. So see how was the end of the mischief-maker (103)

Story of Prophet Musa, upon him be Peace, and Fir'awn

Allah said,

ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَا مِن بَعْدِهِم

(Then after them We sent), after the Messengers whom We mentioned, such as Nuh, Hud, Salih Lut and Shu'ayb (may Allah's peace and blessings be on them and the rest of Allah's Prophets), We sent,

مُّوسَىٰ بِآيَاتِنَا

(Musa with Our signs) proofs and clear evidences, to Fir'awn, who was ruler of Egypt during the time of Musa,

وَمَلَئِهِ 

(and his chiefs) the people of Fir'awn,

فَظَلَمُوا بِهَا

(but they wrongfully rejected them), they denied and disbelieved in the signs, out of injustice and stubbornness on their part. Allah said about them in another Ayah,

وَجَحَدُوا بِهَا وَاسْتَيْقَنَتْهَا أَنفُسُهُمْ ظُلْمًا وَعُلُوًّا فَانظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُفْسِدِينَ

(And they belied them (those Ayat) wrongfully and arrogantly, though they were themselves convinced thereof. So see what was the end of the evildoers.)[27:14]

The Ayah says, 'those who hindered from the path of Allah and belied in His Messengers, look how We punished them, We caused them to drown, all of them, while Musa and his people were watching.' Public drowning added disgrace to the punishment that Fir'awn and his people suffered, while adding comfort to the hearts of Allah's party, Musa and those people who believed in him.
