“Tonight I will go through Egypt and kill every firstborn [65] man and animal in Egypt. In this way, I will judge all the gods of Egypt. I {will show that I} am the Lord.
At midnight, the Lord killed all the firstborn sons in Egypt, from the firstborn son of Pharaoh (who ruled Egypt) to the firstborn son of the prisoner sitting in jail. Also all the firstborn animals died.
But I will punish the nation that made them slaves.’ {\cf2\super [124]} And God also said, ‘After those things happen, your people will come out of that country. Then your people will worship me here in this place.’ {\cf2\super [125]}
Moses prepared the Passover {\cf2\super [152]} and spread the blood \{on the doors\}. This blood was spread \{on the doors\} so that the Angel of Death {\cf2\super [153]} would not kill the firstborn {\cf2\super [154]} sons \{of the Jewish people\}. Moses did this because he had faith.
