# at midnight
"in the middle of the night"
# all the firstborn in the land of Egypt ... all the firstborn of the livestock
Here, "firstborn" always refers to the oldest male offspring. See how you translated a similar phrase in [Exodus 11:5](../11/05.md).
# who sat on his throne
This refers to Pharaoh.
# the firstborn of the person in the dungeon
"to the firstborn of people in the dungeon." This refers to prisoners in general, not to a specific person in the dungeon.
