[00:06.000]Javert: Valjean, at last,
[00:09.000]We see each other plain.
[00:13.000]'M'sieur le Mayor,'
[00:15.300]You'll wear a different chain!
[00:19.000]Valjean: Before you say another word, Javert.
[00:23.000]Before you chain me up like a slave again.
[00:25.300]Listen to me!
[00:27.000]There is something I must do.
[00:32.300]This woman leaves behind a suffering child.
[00:36.000]There is none but me who can intercede,
[00:39.000]In Mercy's name, three days are all I need.
[00:46.000]Then I'll return, I pledge my word.
[00:49.000]Then I'll return...
[00:50.200]Javert: You must think me mad!
[00:52.000]I've hunted you across the years.
[00:56.000]A man like you can never change.
[00:58.200]A man such as you.
[01:04.300]Believe of me what you will. - Men like you can never change.
[01:07.000]There is a duty that I'm sworn to do. - Men like me can never change.
[01:11.000]You know nothing of my life. - No, 24601.
[01:16.000]All I did was steal some bread. - My duty's to the law.
[01:18.000]You know nothing of the world. - You have no rights.
[01:21.000]You would sooner see me dead. - Come with me 24601.
[01:23.000]But not before I see this justice done. - Now the wheel has turned around,
[01:26.000]Jean Valjean is nothing now.
[01:29.300]I am warning you Javert! - Dare you talk to me of crime.
[01:32.000]I'm a stronger man by far, - And the price you had to pay.
[01:35.300]There is power in me yet, - Every man is born in sin.
[01:38.000]My race is not yet run! - Every man must choose his way!
[01:41.000]I am warning you Javert! - You know nothing of Javert!
[01:44.000]There’s nothing I won’t dare, - I was born inside a jail.
[01:48.000]If I have to kill you, too. - I was born with scum like you.
[01:51.000]I’ll do what must be done! - I am from the gutter too!
[02:04.000]And this I swear to you tonight,
[02:07.000]There is no place for you to hide,
[02:11.000]Your child will live within my care.
[02:14.000]wherever you may hide away.
[02:17.300]And I will raise her to the light.
[02:21.000]I swear to you, I will be there!

Javert: Valjean, at last,
We see each other plain.
'M'sieur le Mayor,'
You'll wear a different chain!
Valjean: Before you say another word, Javert.
Before you chain me up like a slave again.
Listen to me!
There is something I must do.
This woman leaves behind a suffering child.
There is none but me who can intercede,
In Mercy's name, three days are all I need.
Then I'll return, I pledge my word.
Then I'll return...
Javert: You must think me mad!
I've hunted you across the years.
A man like you can never change.
A man such as you.
Believe of me what you will. - Men like you can never change.
There is a duty that I'm sworn to do. - Men like me can never change.
You know nothing of my life. - No, 24601.
All I did was steal some bread. - My duty's to the law.
You know nothing of the world. - You have no rights.
You would sooner see me dead. - Come with me 24601.
But not before I see this justice done. - Now the wheel has turned around,
Jean Valjean is nothing now.
I am warning you Javert! - Dare you talk to me of crime.
I'm a stronger man by far, - And the price you had to pay.
There is power in me yet, - Every man is born in sin.
My race is not yet run! - Every man must choose his way!
I am warning you Javert! - You know nothing of Javert!
There’s nothing I won’t dare, - I was born inside a jail.
If I have to kill you, too. - I was born with scum like you.
I’ll do what must be done! - I am from the gutter too!
And this I swear to you tonight,
There is no place for you to hide,
Your child will live within my care.
wherever you may hide away.
And I will raise her to the light.
I swear to you, I will be there!
