the sun to rule the day, for his mercy is eternal:
Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, Both of man and beast.
Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast; [Exod. 12:12, 29; Ps. 78:51; 136:10.]
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast;
God struck down the Egyptians’ oldest offspring— both human and animal!
