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 with every thing, he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether.
2 Speak now secretly in the ears of the people, and
let every man borrow [ask] of his
neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of
gold and raiment.
3 And the
LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, and they lent to them. 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 firstborn 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 [among all] 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 [over whom thou presidest]: 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 signs and my wonders may be greatly multiplied in the land of Egypt.
10 And Moses
and Aaron did all these signs and wonders
in the land [of] Egypt before
Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not hearken to let the children of Israel go
out of his land [of the land of Egypt].
