Exodus
Exodus 11:6–7
6Then a great cry will go out over all the land of Egypt. Such an outcry has never been heard before and will never be heard again. 7But among all the Israelites, not even a dog will snarl at man or beast.’a
Then you will know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.
