Exodus 12:31-36

31Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, "Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as you have said.

32Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also!"

33The Egyptians were urgent with the people to send them out of the land in haste. For they said, "We shall all be dead."

34So the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading bowls being bound up in their cloaks on their shoulders.

35The people of Israel had also done as Moses told them, for they had asked the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry and for clothing.

36And the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.
