Exodus 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
neighbour, and every
woman of her
neighbour, jewels of
silver, and
jewels of
gold. 3 And the
LORD gave the
people favour 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
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 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.
