Exodus 12:28-38 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

28. Then Bnei-Yisrael went and did it. They did just as Adonai had commanded Moses and Aaron.

29. So it came about at midnight that Adonai struck down all 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 dungeon, and all the firstborn cattle.

30. Then Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians, and there was loud wailing in Egypt. For there was not a house where someone was not dead.

31. So he called for Moses and Aaron at night and said, “Rise up, go out from my people, both you and Bnei-Yisrael, go, serve Adonai as you have said.

32. Take your flocks and your herds, as you said, and be gone! But bless me, too.”

33. Now the Egyptians urged the people, sending them out of the land quickly, for they thought, “We will all be dead!”

34. So the people took their dough before it was leavened, with their kneading bowls bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.

35. So Bnei-Yisrael acted ­according to the word of Moses. They asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing.

36. Adonai gave the people favor in the eyes of the Egyptians and let them have what they asked for. So they plundered the Egyptians.

37. Then Bnei-Yisrael journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about 600,000 men on foot, as well as children.

38. Also a mixed multitude went up with them, along with the flocks, herds and heavy livestock.
