30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a "great ery in Egypt: for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

31 1 And "he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, "both ye and the children of Israel: and go, serve the LORD, as ye have Peh.10.26 said.
