¶ The .xj. Chapter. ¶ The Lorde commaundeth to robbe the Egipci&abar;s. The deeth of all the fyrst begotten in Egipt.

A   And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses: yet wyll I brynge one plage more vpon Pharao and vpon Egipte: and after that, he wyll let you go hence. And when he letteth you go, he shall vtterly driue you h&ebar;ce. Speake thou therfore in the eares of the people, that euery m&abar; borowe of his neyghbour, and euery woma&abar; of her neyghboures note iewels of syluer and iewels of golde. And the Lord shall gyue the people fauour in the syght of the Egipci&abar;s. Moreouer, note Moses was very great in the lande of Egipt, in the syght of Pharaos serua&ubar;tes and in the sight B    of the people.

And Moses sayde: thus sayth the Lorde: note At mydnight wyll I go out into the middes of Egipte, and all the fyrste borne in the lande of Egipt shall dye, euen from the fyrst borne of Pharao þt; &rhand; sytteth on his seate, vnto the fyrst borne of the mayde seruaunte that is behynde the mylle, and all the fyrste g&ebar;dred of the catell. And there shalbe a great crye thorowout all the lande of Egipt, such as there was neuer none lyke, nor shalbe.

C   But amonge the chyldren of Israel, shall not a dogge moue his tonge, nor yet man or beast: þt; ye maye knowe howe þt; the Lorde, (by a great miracle) putteth a differ&ebar;ce betwene the Egipcy&abar;s and Israel. And these thy serua&ubar;tes shall all come downe vnto me. And fall before me, and saye: gett the out and all the people that are vnder the, and then wyll I departe. And he went oute from Pharao with an angry countenaunce.

D   And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses: Pharao shall not heare you, þt; my wonders may be multiplyed in the lande of Egipte. And Moses and Aaron dyd all these wonders. (And tokens which are written) before Pharao. And the Lorde hardened Pharaos herte, so that he wolde not let the chyldren of Israel go out of his lande.
