And Moses said to LORD, Then the Egyptians will hear it, for thou brought up this people in thy might from among them,

how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time. And the Egyptians dealt ill with us and our fathers.

And they journeyed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month. On the morrow after the Passover the sons of Israel went out with a high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians,

while the Egyptians were burying all their first-born whom LORD had smitten among them; upon their gods also LORD executed judgments.
