Exodus 12:29-42

LITV(i) 29 And it happened at midnight. Jehovah struck every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh, the one sitting on the throne, to the first-born of the captive who was in the prison house, and every first-born of animals. 30 And Pharaoh arose by night, he and 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 a dead one. 31 And he called Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Arise, go out from the midst of my people, both you and the sons of Israel. And go serve Jehovah according to your word. 32 Take both your flocks and your herds, as you said, and go. And bless me also. 33 And the Egyptians were strong on the people, to hasten to send them away from the land. For they said, All of us are about to die. 34 And the people took up their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothing on their shoulders. 35 And the sons of Israel did according to the word of Moses. And they asked from the Egyptians articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing. 36 And Jehovah gave favor to the people in the eyes of the Egyptians. And they granted their requests And they plundered Egypt. 37 And the sons of Israel traveled from Rameses to Succoth, the men being about six hundred thousand on foot, apart from little ones. 38 And also a mixed multitude went up with them, and flocks, and herds, very many livestock. 39 And they baked the dough which they brought out from Egypt into unleavened cakes. For it was not leavened, because they were driven out from Egypt, and they were not able to delay. And also they had not prepared food for a journey for themselves. 40 And the time of the dwelling of the sons of Israel, which they dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. 41 And it happened, from the end of four hundred and thirty years, it happened on this day, all the armies of Jehovah went out from the land of Egypt. 42 It is a night of celebration to Jehovah, for bringing them out from the land of Egypt. This night is a celebration for all the sons of Israel to their generations.
