A night of solemn observances, it is unto Yahweh, for bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt, - this same night, pertaineth to Yahweh, for solemn observances by all the sons of Israel to their generations.

Now, Yahweh, was going before them - by day, in a pillar of cloud to lead them the way, and by night, in a pillar of fire to give them light, - that they might journey day and night:

so it came in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, so it became a cloud and darkness, and yet lighted up the night, - so that the one came not near unto the other, all the night.

And it came to pass, on the way, in the resting-place for the night, that Yahweh fell upon him, and sought to kill him.

And Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and, Yahweh, caused an east wind to drive through the land, all that day, and all the night, - when the morning, had come, the east wind, had brought the locust.

Then shall they eat the flesh, in the same night, - roast with fire, and with unleavened cakes, with bitter herbs, shall they eat it.

I will pass along, therefore, throughout the land of Egypt this night, and will smite every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from man even to beast, - and against all the gods of Egypt, will I execute judgments - I, Yahweh.

Then rose up Pharaoh by night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there arose a great outcry throughout Egypt, - for there was not a house, where there was not one dead.

So he called for Moses and for Aaron by night and said - Rise ye, go forth out of the midst of my people, both ye and the sons of Israel, - and go serve Yahweh according to your word;

the pillar of cloud by day ceased not, nor the pillar of fire by night, - from before the people.

And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and Yahweh carried away the sea by a mighty east wind all the night, and turned the sea into dry land, - and the waters were cloven asunder.
