1 And the Lord said unto Moses, I will bring one more plague upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, after which he will let you go from here; when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out of here altogether.
2 Speak now to the people and let each man demand of his neighbour and each woman of her neighbour, vessels of silver and of gold.
3 And the Lord gave the people grace in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s slaves, and in the sight of the people.
4 And Moses said, The Lord hath said thus, About midnight I will 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 sits upon his throne even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill and all the firstborn of beasts.
