Exodus 12:29–36

²⁹At midnight^p the Lord^q struck down all the firstborn^r in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock^s as well. ³⁰Pharaoh and all his officials and all the Egyptians got up during the night, and there was loud wailing^t in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead.

The Exodus

³¹During the night Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Up! Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship^u the Lord as you have requested. ³²Take your flocks and herds,^v as you have said, and go. And also bless^w me.”

³³The Egyptians urged the people to hurry^x and leave^y the country. “For otherwise,” they said, “we will all die!”^{z 34}So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and carried it on their shoulders in kneading troughs^a wrapped in clothing. ³⁵The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold^b and for clothing.^{c 36}The Lord had made the Egyptians favorably disposed^d toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered^e the Egyptians.
