Exodus 11:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And the Lord will give favour to his people in the sight of the Egyptians. And Moses was a very great man in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharao's servants, and of all the people.

⁴ And he said: Thus said the Lord: At midnight I will enter into Egypt.

⁵ And every firstborn in the land of the Egyptians shall die, from the firstborn of Pharao who sitteth on his throne, even to the first born of the handmaid that is at the mill, and all the firstborn of beasts.
