וַיְהִ֣י ׀ בַּחֲצִ֣י הַלַּ֗יְלָה וַֽיהוָה֮ הִכָּ֣ה כָל־בְּכוֹר֮ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַיִם֒ מִבְּכֹ֤ר פַּרְעֹה֙ הַיֹּשֵׁ֣ב עַל־כִּסְא֔וֹ עַ֚ד בְּכ֣וֹר הַשְּׁבִ֔י אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּבֵ֣ית הַבּ֑וֹר וְכֹ֖ל בְּכ֥וֹר בְּהֵמָֽה׃
Or, au milieu de la nuit, le Seigneur fit périr tout premier-né dans le pays d’Égypte, depuis le premier-né de Pharaon, héritier de son trône, jusqu’au premier-né du captif au fond de la geôle et tous les premiers nés des animaux.
Rashi on Exodus

Rashbam on Exodus
בחצי הלילה, while they were eating their Passover offering.
