And that thou mayeft tell in the ears hy fo, and of thy fon's fon, what things have wrought in Egypt, and my figns Which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.

3 And Moles and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and faid unto him, Thus faith the Loss God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refufe to humble thyfelf before me! Let ay people go, that they may ferve me.

Elfe, if thou reiufe to let my people go, behold, to-morrow will I bring the locufts into thy coaft:

Andthey fhal' cover the face of the earth, tha: one cannot be able to see the earth: and they thall eat the refidue of that which is eaped, which remaineth unto you from the Fail, and thall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:

6 And they fhall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy fervants, and the houfes of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, or thy father's fathers have feen, fince the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.

7 And Pharaoh's fervants faid unto him, How long thall this man be a tuare unto us! let the men go, that they may ferve the LORD their God: Knowent thou not yet that Egypt is deftroyed?

And Moles and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he faid unto them, Go, ferve the LORD your God: but who are they that shall go!

9 And Mofes faid, We will go with our young and with our old, with our fons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with nur herds will we go; for we must hold a feaft unto the LORD.

11 Not fo: go now ye that are men, and ferve the LORD; for that ye did defire.

And they were driven out from Pharaoh's

12 And the Lord faid unto Mofes, Stretch at thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locufts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.

13 And Mofes ftretched forth his rod over the land of Fgypt, and the LORD brought an eat wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the eaft wind brought the locufts,

14 And the locuits went up over all the land of Egypt, and retted in all the coafts of Egypt: very grievous were they; betore them there were no fuch locufts as they, neither after them fhall be fuch.

15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, o that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all

16 Then Pharaoh called for Mofes and Aaron in hatte; and he faid, I have finned

against the LORD your God, and aga nit you

17 Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my fin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only.

18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.

19 And the LORD turned a mighty trong wet wind which took away the locufts, and caft them into the Red fea; there remained not one locuft in all the coats of Egypt.

20 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, fo that he would not let the children of Ifrael go.

21 And the LORD faid unto Mofes, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkne's over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may he felt.

22 And Mofes ttretched forth his hand toward heaven; and here was a thick dark nefs in all the land of Egypt three days:

23 They faw not one another, neither rofe any from his place for three days: but all the children of Ifrael had light in their dwell ings.

24 And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and faid, Go ye, ferve the LORD; only let your locks and your herds be ttayed let your little ones alfo go with you,

25 And Mofes faid, Thou must give us allo factices and burnt-offerings, that we may facrifice unto the Locour God.

25 Our cattle alo fhall go with us; there fhall not an hoor be leit behind; for thereof muft we take to ferve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we muit ferve the LORD, until we come thither.

27 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.

28 And Pharaoh faid unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, fee my face no more; for in that day thou feeft my face thou shalt die.

29 And Mofes faid, Thou haft spoken well, I will fee thy face again no more." СНАР. Х1.

AND the LORD faid unto Mofes, Yet will! bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterward he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go, he thall furely thruft you out hence altogether.

2 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of filver, and jewels of gold.

3 And the LORD gave the people favour in the fight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Mofes was very great in the land of Egypt, in the fight of Pharaoh's ervants, and in the fight of the people.

7 But against any of the children of Ifrael fhall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beat that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Ifracl.

And all these thy fervants fhall come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto me, faying, Get thee out, and all the people that follow thee; and after that I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.

And the LORD faid unto Mofes, Pharaoh hall not hearken unto you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.

10 And Mofes and Aaron did all there wonders before Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, fo that he would not let the children of Ifrael go out of his land.

4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his houfe take it according to the number of the fouls'; every man according to his eating thall make your count for the lamb.

5. Your lamb thall be without blemith, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the thee;, or trom the goats:

7 And they shall take of the blood, and Atrike it on the two fide-pofts and on the upper door-port of the houies, wherein they

8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roaft with nre, and unleavened bread; and with bitter beibs they shall eat it.

11 ¶ And thus fhall ve eat it; with your loins girded, your thoes on your feet, and your it in your hand; and ye shall eat it in hafte: it is the Lorn's pullover.

12 For I will pass through the land of E. gypt this night, and will imite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beat; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: tam the LORD.

13 And the blood thall be to you for a token upon the houfes where ye are: and when I fee the blood, I will pafs over you,

The firf-born flain. and the plague fhall not be upon you to detroy you, when I fmite the land of Egypt.

16 And in the first day there shall be an ho ly convocation, and in the feventh day there thall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work thall be done in them, fave that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you.

17 And ye shall obferve the feast of unlea vened bread; for in this felt-fame day have I brought your armies out of the land of E. gypt: therefore shall ye obferve this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.

3¶ And Mofes faid unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place: there thail no leavened bread be eaten.

35 And the children of Ifrael did according to the word of Motes; and they borrowed of 4 This day came ye out in the month Abib. the gyptians jewels of filver, and jewels of Andi fhall be when the Lown that geld, and raiment : bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he iware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this fervice in this month.

36 And the LORD gave the people favour In the fight of the Egyptians, fo that they lent unto them fuch things as they required. And they (poiled the Egyptians.

37 And the children of Ifrael journeyed from Ramefes to Succoth; about fix hundred thousand on 100t that were men, befide children.

38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very

much cattle.

39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; becaufe they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, Heither had they prepared for themselves any vidual.

40 Now the fojourning of the children of Frael, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.

6 Seven days halt thou eat unleavened bread, and in the feventh day shall be a feaft to the LORD.

7 Unleavened bread fhall be eaten feven days; and there thall no leavened bread be feen with thee, neither hall there be leaven feen with thee in all thy quarters.

8 And thou fhalt thew thy fon in that day, faying, This is anne because of that which the LORD did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt.

9 And it thall be for a fign unto thee upon thine hand, and fora-memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the cap brought thee out of Egypt.

10 Thou shalt theretore keep this ordinance in his feafon from year to year.

41 And it came to pafs at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selffame day it came to pals, that all the hofls of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.11 And it thall be when the LORD thall 42 It is a night to be much obferved unto bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, as the LORD for bringing them out from the he fware unto thee and to thy fathers, and land or Egypt: this is that night of the LORD fhall give it thee, to be obferved of all the children of Ifrael in their generations.

43 And the LORD faid unto Mofes and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the paffover: There thall no stranger eat thereof:

44 But every man's fervant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcited him, then thall be eat thereof

45 A foreigner and an hired fervant shall not eat thereof.

46 in one houfe thall it be eaten thou shalt not carry forth aught of the flesh abroad out of the houfe; neither thall ye break a bone thereof.

47 All the congregation of Ifrael fhall keep it. 48 And when a ranger thall fojourn with thee, and will keep the paffover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for co uncircumcifed perfon shall eat thereof.

49 One law thall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the ftranger that fojourneth among you.

so Thus did all the children of Ifrael; as

17 And it came to pafs, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God faid, Left peradventure the people repent when they fee war, and they return to Egypt:

18 But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red fea: And the children of Ifrael went up harneffed out of the land of Fgypt.

19 And Mofes took the bones of Jofeph with him: for he had ftraitly fworn the children of lirael, faying, God will furely vifit you; and ye thall carry up my bones away hence with you.

20 And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.

21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:

22 He took not away the pilla; of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.

4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that

honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his

And it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled; and the heart of Pharaoh ani of his fervants was turned against the people, and they faid, Why have we done this, that we have let Ifrael go from ferving us !

6 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:

7 And he took fix hundred chofen chariots, and all the chariots or Egypt, and captains over every one of them.

8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Fgypt, and he purfued after the children of Ifrael: and the children of Ifrael went out with an high hand.

9 But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the fea, befide Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.

10 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Ifrael lifted up theireyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were fore atraid: and the children of Ifrael cried out unto the LORD.

11 And they laid unto Moles, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hañ thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore haft thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?

16 But lift thou up thy rod, and fretch ou thine hand over the fea, and divide it: apie the children of Ifrael thall go on dry groun through the midst of the fea.

17 And I, behold, I will harden the heart an of the Egyptians, and they thall follow them and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, andr upon all his hoft, upon his chariots, and upor his horfemen.

18 And the Egyptians fhall know that lan the LORD, when I have gotten me honour up on Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon him

20 And it came between the camp or the Egyptians and the camp of Ifracl; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to thefe: fo that the one came not near the other all the night.

21 And Mofes ftretched out his hand over the fea; and the LORD caufed the fea to go back by a strong eaft wind all that night, and made the fea dry land, and the waters were divided.

22 And the children of Ifrael went into the midft of the fea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right. hand, and on their left.

23 And the Egyptians purfued, and went in after them to the midf or the fea, even all t Pharaoh's horfes, his chariots, and his horsemen.

24 And it came to pafs, that in the morn ing watch the LORD' looked unto the hoft ot the Fgyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,

25 And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: fo that the Egyp tians faid, Let us flee from the face of Ifrael; for the LORD fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

26 And the LORD faid unto Mofes, Stretch out thine hand over the fea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horiemen.

27 And Mofes freiched forth hishand over the fea, and the fea returned to his ftrength when the morning appeared; and the Egyp tians filed against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the fea.
