Exodus 10:14-12:13
Skip Heitzig
| Exodus 10 (NKJV™) | |
| 14 | And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt and rested on all the territory of Egypt. They were very severe; previously there had been no such locusts as they, nor shall there be such after them. |
| 15 | For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. So there remained nothing green on the trees or on the plants of the field throughout all the land of Egypt. |
| 16 | Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you. |
| 17 | "Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that He may take away from me this death only." |
| 18 | So he went out from Pharaoh and entreated the LORD. |
| 19 | And the LORD turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts away and blew them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the territory of Egypt. |
| 20 | But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go. |
| 21 | Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt." |
| 22 | So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days. |
| 23 | They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. |
| 24 | Then Pharaoh called to Moses and said, "Go, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be kept back. Let your little ones also go with you." |
| 25 | But Moses said, "You must also give us sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God. |
| 26 | "Our livestock also shall go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind. For we must take some of them to serve the LORD our God, and even we do not know with what we must serve the LORD until we arrive there." |
| 27 | But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go. |
| 28 | Then Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me! Take heed to yourself and see my face no more! For in the day you see my face you shall die!" |
| 29 | And Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will never see your face again." |
| Exodus 11 (NKJV™) | |
| 1 | And the LORD said to Moses, "I will bring yet one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. Afterward he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will surely drive you out of here altogether. |
| 2 | "Speak now in the hearing of the people, and let every man ask from his neighbor and every woman from her neighbor, articles of silver and articles of gold." |
| 3 | And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people. |
| 4 | Then Moses said, "Thus says the LORD: 'About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt; |
| 5 | 'and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the handmill, and all the firstborn of the animals. |
| 6 | 'Then there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as was not like it before, nor shall be like it again. |
| 7 | 'But against none of the children of Israel shall a dog move its tongue, against man or beast, that you may know that the LORD does make a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.' |
| 8 | "And all these your servants shall come down to me and bow down to me, saying, 'Get out, and all the people who follow you!' After that I will go out." Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger. |
| 9 | But the LORD said to Moses, "Pharaoh will not heed you, so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt." |
| 10 | So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land. |
| Exodus 12 (NKJV™) | |
| 1 | Now the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, |
| 2 | "This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you. |
| 3 | "Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying: 'On the tenth day of this month every man shall take for himself a lamb, according to the house of his father, a lamb for a household. |
| 4 | 'And if the household is too small for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the persons; according to each man's need you shall make your count for the lamb. |
| 5 | 'Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats. |
| 6 | 'Now you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month. Then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at twilight. |
| 7 | 'And they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses where they eat it. |
| 8 | 'Then they shall eat the flesh on that night; roasted in fire, with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. |
| 9 | 'Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted in fire--its head with its legs and its entrails. |
| 10 | 'You shall let none of it remain until morning, and what remains of it until morning you shall burn with fire. |
| 11 | 'And thus you shall eat it: with a belt on your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. So you shall eat it in haste. It is the LORD'S Passover. |
| 12 | 'For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. |
| 13 | 'Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt. |
