1 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more
upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go
hence: when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you
out hence altogether. |
|
2 | Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow
of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of
silver and jewels of gold. |
|
3 | And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the
Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land
of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight
of the people. |
|
4 | And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go
out into the midst of Egypt: |
|
5 | And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the
first born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto
the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and
all the firstborn of beasts. |
|
6 | And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of
Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it
any more. |
|
7 | But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move
his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that
the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and
Israel. |
|
8 | And all these thy servants shall come down unto me, and bow
down themselves unto me, saying, Get thee out, and all the
people that follow thee: and after that I will go out. And he
went out from Pharaoh in a great anger. |
|
9 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken unto
you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt. |
|
10 | And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and
the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let
the children of Israel go out of his land. |
