(A)“And you saw the affliction of our fathers in Egypt and heard (B)their cry at the Red Sea, 10 (C)and performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh and all his servants and all the people of his land, for you knew that (D)they acted arrogantly against our fathers. And (E)you made a name for yourself, as it is to this day. 11 (F)And you divided the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on dry land, and you cast their pursuers into the depths, (G)as a stone into mighty waters.

The Exodus

33 (B)The Egyptians were urgent with the people to send them out of the land in haste. For they said, “We shall all be dead.” 34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading bowls being bound up in their cloaks on their shoulders. 35 The people of Israel had also done as Moses told them, for they had (C)asked the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry and for clothing. 36 (D)And the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that (E)they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.

37 And the (F)people of Israel journeyed from (G)Rameses to Succoth, (H)about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. 38 A (I)mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds.

Moses and Aaron Before Pharaoh

And the Lord said to Moses, “See, I have made you like (A)God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron shall be your (B)prophet. (C)You shall speak all that I command you, and your brother Aaron shall tell Pharaoh to let the people of Israel go out of his land. But (D)I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I (E)multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, Pharaoh will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and bring my hosts, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great acts of judgment. The Egyptians (F)shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring out the people of Israel from among them.” Moses and Aaron did so; they did just as the Lord commanded them. Now Moses was (G)eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.

Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “When Pharaoh says to you, (H)‘Prove yourselves by working a miracle,’ then you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it may become a serpent.’” 10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the Lord commanded. Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a serpent. 11 Then Pharaoh summoned the wise men and the sorcerers, and they, the (I)magicians of Egypt, also (J)did the same by their secret arts. 12 For each man cast down his staff, and they became serpents. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Still (K)Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, (L)as the Lord had said.

29 He turned their waters into blood
    and (E)caused their fish to die.
30 Their land swarmed with frogs,
    even in (F)the chambers of their kings.
31 He spoke, and there came (G)swarms of flies,
    (H)and gnats throughout their country.
32 He gave them hail for rain,
    and fiery (I)lightning bolts through their land.
33 He struck down their vines and fig trees,

34 He spoke, and the (K)locusts came,
    young locusts without number,

36 He (L)struck down all the firstborn in their land,
