Hebrews 11:26-28
Contemporary English Version
26 Moses knew that the treasures of Egypt were not as wonderful as what he would receive from suffering for the Messiah,[a] and he looked forward to his reward.
27 Because of his faith, Moses left Egypt. Moses had seen the invisible God and wasn't afraid of the king's anger. 28 (A) His faith also made him celebrate Passover. He sprinkled the blood of animals on the doorposts, so that the first-born sons of the people of Israel would not be killed by the destroying angel.
