Exodus 11:6

Read in context

Exodus 11:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 So Moses declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go throughout Egypt,

5 and every firstborn son in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the servant girl behind the hand mill, as well as the firstborn of all the cattle.

6 Then a great cry will go out over all the land of Egypt. Such an outcry has never been heard before and will never be heard again.

7 But among all the Israelites, not even a dog will snarl at man or beast.’ Then you will know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.

8 And all these officials of yours will come and bow before me, saying, ‘Go, you and all the people who follow you!’ After that, I will depart.” And hot with anger, Moses left Pharaoh’s presence.
