11 |
| 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 neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, jewels of silver and
jewels of gold. |
| 3 | And the
LORD gave the people favor 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. |
