²³ they have not seen one another, and none hath risen from his place three days; and to all the sons of Israel there hath been light in their dwellings.'

²² `And I have separated in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people are staying, that the beetle is not there, so that thou knowest that I `am' Jehovah in the midst of the land,

⁴ `And Jehovah hath separated between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and there doth not die a thing of all the sons of Israel's;

⁹ and ye `are' a choice race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired, that the excellences ye may shew forth of Him who out of darkness did call you to His wondrous light;

¹³ who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate `us' into the reign of the Son of His love,

¹⁸ And ye have turned back and considered, Between the righteous and the wicked, Between the servant of God and him who is not His servant.

¹³ Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, My servants do eat, and ye do hunger, Lo, My servants do drink, and ye do thirst, Lo, My servants rejoice, and ye are ashamed,

¹⁴ Lo, My servants sing from joy of heart, And ye cry from pain of heart, And from breaking of spirit ye do howl.

¹ Arise, be bright, for come hath thy light, And the honour of Jehovah hath risen on thee.

² For, lo, the darkness doth cover the earth, And thick darkness the peoples, And on thee rise doth Jehovah, And His honour on thee is seen.

³ And come have nations to thy light, And kings to the brightness of thy rising.

¹⁶ And I have caused the blind to go, In a way they have not known, In paths they have not known I cause them to tread, I make a dark place before them become light, And unlevelled places become a plain, These `are' the things I have done to them, And I have not forsaken them.

⁷ and they cry unto Jehovah, and He setteth thick darkness between you and the Egyptians, and bringeth on them the sea, and covereth them, and your eyes see that which I have done in Egypt; and ye dwell in a wilderness many days.

²⁰ and cometh in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and the cloud and the darkness are, and he enlighteneth the night, and the one hath not drawn near unto the other all the night.

²⁶ only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel `are', there hath been no hail.
