1. ANᴅ our Lord said to Moyses: Yet with one plague more wil I touch Pharao & Ægypt,
and after this he shal dismisse you, and compel you to goe forth.
2. Thou shalt say therfore to al the people that euerie man aske of his frend, & euery
woman of her neighbour vessels of siluer, & of gold.
3. And the Lord wil geue grace to his people in the sight of the Ægyptians. And Moyses
was a very great man in the Land of Ægypt, in the sight of Pharaoes seruantes, & of al the
people.
4. And he said: This saith our Lord: At midnight I wil enter into Ægypt:
5. and euerie first-begotten in the Land of the Ægyptians shal dye, from the
first-begotten of Pharao who sitteth in his throne, euen to the first-begotten of the handmaid
that is at the mil, & al the first-begotten of beastes.
6. And there shal be a great crie in the whole Land of Ægypt, such as neither hath bene
before, nor shal be afterward.
7. But with al the children of Israel there shal not a dogge mutter, from man euen to
beast: that you may know with how great a miracle our Lord doth diuide the Ægyptians & Israel.
8. And al these thy seruantes shal come downe to me, and shal adore me, saying: Goe
forth thou, & al the people that is vnder thee: after this we shal goe forth.
9. And he departed from Pharao exceeding angrie. And our Lord said to Moyses: Pharao
wil not heare you that manie signes may be done in the Land of Ægypt.
10. And Moyses and Aaron did al the wonders that are written, before Pharao. And our
Lord hardned Pharaoes hart, neither did he dismisse the children of Israel out of his Land.
