²⁹ So Moses said, “You have spoken well. ^(A)I will never see your face again.”

²⁷ By faith ^(A)he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.

³⁰ So Pharaoh rose in the night, he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

The Exodus

³¹ Then he ^(A)called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, “Rise, go out from among my people, ^(B)both you and the children of Israel. And go, serve the Lord as you have ^(C)said.

⁴ Then Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: ^(A)‘About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt; ⁵ and ^(B)all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the handmill, and all the firstborn of the animals. ^6 (C)Then there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, ^(D)such as was not like it before, nor shall be like it again. ^7 (E)But against none of the children of Israel ^(F)shall a dog ^[a]move its tongue, against man or beast, that you may know that the Lord does make a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.’ ⁸ And ^(G)all these your servants shall come down to me and bow down to me, saying, ‘Get out, and all the people who follow you!’ After that I will go out.” ^(H)Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.
