Exodus 11 - Hebrew Names version (HNV)

¹ The LORD said to Moshe, *Yet one plague more will I bring on Par`oh, and on Egypt; afterwards he will let you go. When he lets you go, he will surely thrust you out altogether.

² Speak now in the ears of the people, and let them ask every man of his neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.*

³ The LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moshe was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Par`oh's servants, and in the sight of the people.

⁴ Moshe said, *This is what the LORD says: 'About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt,

⁵ and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Par`oh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of livestock.

⁶ There shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, nor shall be any more.

⁷ But against any of the children of Yisra'el a dog won't even bark or move its tongue, against man or animal; that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between the Egyptians and Yisra'el.

⁸ All these your servants shall come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, *Get out, with all the people who follow you;* and after that I will go out.'* He went out from Par`oh in hot anger.

⁹ The LORD said to Moshe, *Par`oh won't listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.*

¹⁰ Moshe and Aharon did all these wonders before Par`oh, and the LORD hardened Par`oh's heart, and he didn't let the children of Yisra'el go out of his land.
