Exodus 4:23King James 3 - The Literal TraslationAnd I said to you, Send My son away, and let him serve Me; and you refused to send him. Behold, I am about to kill your son, your first-born! See the chapter |
And it happened when Pharaoh hardened himself against sending us away, Jehovah killed every first-born one in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of men even to the first-born of animals. On account of this I sacrifice to Jehovah every one of the males opening the womb, and I redeem every first-born of my sons.
