1 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς μωυσῆν ἔτι μίαν πληγὴν ἐπάξω ἐπὶ φαραω καὶ ἐπ' αἴγυπτον καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξαποστελεῖ ὑμᾶς ἐντεῦθεν ὅταν δὲ ἐξαποστέλλῃ ὑμᾶς σὺν παντὶ ἐκβαλεῖ ὑμᾶς ἐκβολῇ

2 λάλησον οὖν κρυφῇ εἰς τὰ ὦτα τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ αἰτησάτω ἕκαστος παρὰ τοῦ πλησίον καὶ γυνὴ παρὰ τῆς πλησίον σκεύη ἀργυρᾶ καὶ χρυσᾶ καὶ ἱματισμόν

3 κύριος δὲ ἔδωκεν τὴν χάριν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ἐναντίον τῶν αἰγυπτίων καὶ ἔχρησαν αὐτοῖς καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος μωυσῆς μέγας ἐγενήθη σφόδρα ἐναντίον τῶν αἰγυπτίων καὶ ἐναντίον φαραω καὶ ἐναντίον πάντων τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ

4 καὶ εἶπεν μωυσῆς τάδε λέγει κύριος περὶ μέσας νύκτας ἐγὼ εἰσπορεύομαι εἰς μέσον αἰγύπτου

5 καὶ τελευτήσει πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν γῇ αἰγύπτῳ ἀπὸ πρωτοτόκου φαραω ὃς κάθηται ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ ἕως πρωτοτόκου τῆς θεραπαίνης τῆς παρὰ τὸν μύλον καὶ ἕως πρωτοτόκου παντὸς κτήνους

6 καὶ ἔσται κραυγὴ μεγάλη κατὰ πᾶσαν γῆν αἰγύπτου ἥτις τοιαύτη οὐ γέγονεν καὶ τοιαύτη οὐκέτι προστεθήσεται

7 καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς υἱοῖς ισραηλ οὐ γρύξει κύων τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπου ἕως κτήνους ὅπως εἰδῇς ὅσα παραδοξάσει κύριος ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν αἰγυπτίων καὶ τοῦ ισραηλ

8 καὶ καταβήσονται πάντες οἱ παῖδές σου οὗτοι πρός με καὶ προκυνήσουσίν με λέγοντες ἔξελθε σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαός σου οὗ σὺ ἀφηγῇ καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξελεύσομαι ἐξῆλθεν δὲ μωυσῆς ἀπὸ φαραω μετὰ θυμοῦ

9 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς μωυσῆν οὐκ εἰσακούσεται ὑμῶν φαραω ἵνα πληθύνων πληθύνω μου τὰ σημεῖα καὶ τὰ τέρατα ἐν γῇ αἰγύπτῳ

10 μωυσῆς δὲ καὶ ααρων ἐποίησαν πάντα τὰ σημεῖα καὶ τὰ τέρατα ταῦτα ἐν γῇ αἰγύπτῳ ἐναντίον φαραω ἐσκλήρυνεν δὲ κύριος τὴν καρδίαν φαραω καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς ισραηλ ἐκ γῆς αἰγύπτου

7791. 'And he went out from Pharaoh in wrath and anger' means a violent breaking off of the presence of God's truth from those who are to be damned. This is clear from the meaning of 'going out' as departing, at this point a violent breaking off since the words 'in wrath and anger' are used (in the end also, once damnation is reached, a violent breaking off takes place, for when people begin to feel a loathing of God's truth, also to fear it, and at length to feel horror at its presence, they break away from it violently); from the representation of 'Moses' as God's truth, dealt with often; from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as the ones who molested those who belonged to the spiritual Church, also dealt with often, but at this point those who are to be damned, damnation being meant by the declaration that the firstborn were going to be killed, 7778; and from the meaning of 'wrath and anger' as antagonism and loathing or aversion, dealt with in 3614, 5034, 5798. But when those feelings are attributed to the Divine, as they are here to Divine Truth, represented by 'Moses', it does not mean that the Divine turns away in aversion but that those immersed in evil do so, 5798. 'Wrath' is used in reference to falsity and 'anger' to evil, 3614.
