The Plague on the Firstborn

11 Now the Lord had said to Moses, “I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. After that, he will let you go^(A) from here, and when he does, he will drive you out completely.^(B)

The Exodus

³¹ During the night Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Up! Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship^(A) the Lord as you have requested. ³² Take your flocks and herds,^(B) as you have said, and go. And also bless^(C) me.”

³³ The Egyptians urged the people to hurry^(D) and leave^(E) the country. “For otherwise,” they said, “we will all die!”^{(F) 34} So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and carried it on their shoulders in kneading troughs^(G) wrapped in clothing. ³⁵ The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold^(H) and for clothing.^{(I) 36} The Lord had made the Egyptians favorably disposed^(J) toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered^(K) the Egyptians.

³⁷ The Israelites journeyed from Rameses^(L) to Sukkoth.^(M) There were about six hundred thousand men^(N) on foot, besides women and children.
