In Egypt, Pharaoh was stubborn. He refused to let us leave. So the Lord killed every firstborn [87] in all the land. (The Lord killed the firstborn animals and the firstborn sons. [88])That is why I give every firstborn male animal to the Lord. And that is why I buy back each of my firstborn sons from the Lord.’
