Exodus 12:28-33 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

28. And the Israelites went, and they did as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron; so they did.

29. And in the middle of the night, Yahweh struck all of the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh sitting on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the prison house and every firstborn of an animal.

30. And Pharaoh got up at night, he and all his servants and all Egypt, and a great cry of distress was in Egypt because there was not a house where there was no one dead.

31. And he called Moses and Aaron at night, and he said, “Get up, go out from the midst of my people, both you as well as the Israelites, and go, serve Yahweh, as you have said.

32. Take both your sheep and goats as well as your cattle, and go, and bless also me.”

33. And the Egyptians urged the people in order to hurry their release from the land, because they said, “All of us will die!”
