Exodus 11

(And the Lord said unto Moses, Yet will I bring ^aone plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: ^bwhen he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether. ²Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man ^cborrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold. ^3dAnd the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man ^eMoses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants, and in the sight of the people.) ⁴And Moses said, Thus saith the Lord, ^fAbout midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: ⁵and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant ^gthat is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts. ^6hAnd 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. ⁷ⁱBut against any of the children of Israel ^kshall 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. ⁸And ^lall 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. ⁹And the Lord said unto Moses, ^mPharaoh shall not hearken unto you; that ⁿmy wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt. ¹⁰And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: ^oand the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.
