2 Mose 11
Hoffnung für Alle
Das zehnte Strafgericht wird angekündigt
11 Der Herr sprach zu Mose: »Nun werde ich den Pharao und sein Volk noch ein letztes Mal strafen. Danach wird er euch von hier wegziehen lassen, ja, er wird euch regelrecht fortjagen! 2 Sag den Israeliten, dass sie sich silberne und goldene Schmuckstücke und Gefäße geben lassen sollen. Jeder Mann soll in den umliegenden Häusern nachfragen, und die Frauen sollen ihre Nachbarinnen darum bitten.« 3 Der Herr hatte den Israeliten nämlich großes Ansehen bei den Ägyptern verschafft. Auch Mose war in Ägypten hoch geachtet, bei den Hofbeamten des Pharaos wie bei der Bevölkerung.
4 Mose gab bekannt: »So spricht der Herr: ›Um Mitternacht werde ich durch das ganze Land gehen 5 und alle erstgeborenen Söhne der Ägypter töten, egal ob arm oder reich. Den Sohn des Pharaos auf dem Königsthron trifft es genauso wie den Sohn einer einfachen Sklavin, die mit der Handmühle Korn mahlt. Auch jedes erstgeborene männliche Tier aus den Herden der Ägypter wird sterben. 6 Überall im Land soll man die Menschen klagen und weinen hören, wie es noch nie war und auch nie wieder sein wird. 7 Die Israeliten und ihre Tiere aber werden verschont bleiben, nicht einmal ein Hund bellt sie an. Daran kann jeder erkennen, dass ich die Israeliten anders behandle als die Ägypter.‹ 8 Wenn der Herr dies tut, werden die ägyptischen Hofbeamten zu mir kommen, vor mir niederfallen und mich anflehen, zusammen mit den Israeliten das Land zu verlassen. Und dann werden wir fortziehen!« Glühend vor Zorn verließ Mose das Haus des Pharaos.
9 Der Herr hatte Mose vorgewarnt und gesagt: »Der Pharao wird nicht auf euch hören. Das soll so sein, damit ich in Ägypten viele mächtige Wunder tun kann.« 10 Mose und Aaron hatten all diese Wunder vor den Augen des Pharaos vollbracht. Aber der Herr ließ den König hart bleiben, so dass die Israeliten das Land nicht verlassen durften.

Yahweh Says One More Plague
11 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “One more plague I will bring on Pharaoh and on Egypt; (A)after that he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will surely drive you out from here completely. 2 Speak now in the [a]hearing of the people so that (B)each man may ask from his neighbor and each woman from her neighbor for articles of silver and articles of gold.” 3 (C)(And Yahweh gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. (D)Moreover, the man Moses himself was very great in the land of Egypt, both in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants and in the sight of the people.)
4 So Moses said, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘About (E)midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt, 5 and (F)all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of the Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the servant-girl who is behind the millstones; and all the firstborn of the cattle. 6 Moreover, there shall be (G)a great cry in all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been before and such as shall never be again. 7 (H)But for any of the sons of Israel a dog will not even [b]bark, whether against man or beast, that you may know how Yahweh makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.’ 8 (I)Then all these your servants will come down to me and bow themselves [c]before me, saying, ‘Go out, you and all the people who [d]follow you,’ and after that I will go out.” (J)And he went out from Pharaoh in hot anger.
9 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “(K)Pharaoh will not listen to you, so (L)that My miraculous wonders will be multiplied in the land of Egypt.” 10 (M)Now Moses and Aaron did all these miraculous wonders before Pharaoh; yet (N)Yahweh [e]hardened Pharaoh’s heart with strength, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.

King James Version
11 And the Lord said unto Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust 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 silver and jewels of gold.
3 And the Lord gave the people favour 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 And Moses said, Thus saith the Lord, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt:
5 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts.
6 And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more.
7 But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.
8 And all these thy servants shall come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto me, saying, 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.
9 And the Lord said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.
10 And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

The Plague on the Firstborn
11 Now the Lord had said to Moses, “I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. After that, he will let you go(A) from here, and when he does, he will drive you out completely.(B) 2 Tell the people that men and women alike are to ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold.”(C) 3 (The Lord made the Egyptians favorably disposed(D) toward the people, and Moses himself was highly regarded(E) in Egypt by Pharaoh’s officials and by the people.)
4 So Moses said, “This is what the Lord says: ‘About midnight(F) I will go throughout Egypt.(G) 5 Every firstborn(H) son in Egypt will die, from the firstborn son of Pharaoh, who sits on the throne, to the firstborn son of the female slave, who is at her hand mill,(I) and all the firstborn of the cattle as well. 6 There will be loud wailing(J) throughout Egypt—worse than there has ever been or ever will be again. 7 But among the Israelites not a dog will bark at any person or animal.’ Then you will know that the Lord makes a distinction(K) between Egypt and Israel. 8 All these officials of yours will come to me, bowing down before me and saying, ‘Go,(L) you and all the people who follow you!’ After that I will leave.”(M) Then Moses, hot with anger, left Pharaoh.
9 The Lord had said to Moses, “Pharaoh will refuse to listen(N) to you—so that my wonders(O) may be multiplied in Egypt.” 10 Moses and Aaron performed all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart,(P) and he would not let the Israelites go out of his country.
