1 And the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
2 This month [will be] to you the beginning of months: it [will be] the first month of the year to you.
3 Speak you to all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth [day] of this month they will take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of [their] fathers, a lamb for a house:
4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take [it] according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating will make your count for the lamb.
5 Your lamb will be without blemish, a male of the first year: you will take [it] out from the sheep, or from the goats:
6 And you will keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel will kill it in the evening.
7 And they will take of the blood, and strike [it] on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, in which they will eat it.
8 And they will eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; [and] with bitter [herbs] they will eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast [with] fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance of it.
10 And you will let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remains of it until the morning you will burn with fire.
11 And thus will you eat it; [with] your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you will eat it in haste: it [is] the LORD [Yahweh]'S passover.
12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I [am] the LORD [Yahweh].
13 And the blood will be to you for a token upon the houses where you [are]: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague will not be upon you to destroy [you], when I smite the land of Egypt.
14 And this day will be to you for a memorial; and you will keep it a feast to the LORD [Yahweh] throughout your generations; you will keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.
15 Seven days will you eat unleavened bread; even the first day you will put away leaven out of your houses: for whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul will be cut off from Israel.
16 And in the first day [there will be] a holy convocation, and in the seventh day there will be a holy convocation to you; no manner of work will be done in them, save [that] which every man must eat, that only may be done of you.
17 And you will observe [the feast of] unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore will you observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.
18 In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month at even, you will eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even.
19 Seven days will there be no leaven found in your houses: for whoever eats that which is leavened, even that soul will be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.
20 You will eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations will you eat unleavened bread.
21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said to them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.
22 And you will take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that [is] in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that [is] in the bason; and none of you will go out at the door of his house until the morning.
23 For the LORD [Yahweh] will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD [Yahweh] will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in to your houses to smite [you].
24 And you will observe this thing for an ordinance to you and to your sons for ever.
25 And it will come to pass, when you be come to the land which the LORD [Yahweh] will give you, according as he has promised, that you will keep this service.
26 And it will come to pass, when your children will say to you, What mean you by this service?
27 That you will say, It [is] the sacrifice of the LORD [Yahweh]'S passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.
28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as the LORD [Yahweh] had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
29 And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD [Yahweh] smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that [was] in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.
30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for [there was] not a house where [there was] not one dead.
31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, [and] get you forth from among my people, both you and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD [Yahweh], as you have said.
32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also.
33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We [be] all dead [men].
34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:
36 And the LORD [Yahweh] gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent to them [such things as they required]. And they spoiled the Egyptians.
- FAVOR
37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, beside children.
38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, [even] very much cattle.
39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not wait, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual.
40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, [was] four hundred and thirty years.
41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD [Yahweh] went out from the land of Egypt.
42 It [is] a night to be much observed to the LORD [Yahweh] for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this [is] that night of the LORD [Yahweh] to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.
43 And the LORD [Yahweh] said to Moses and Aaron, This [is] the ordinance of the passover: There will no stranger eat of it:
44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then will he eat of it.
45 A foreigner and a hired servant will not eat of it.
46 In one house will it be eaten; you will not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither will you break a bone of it.
47 All the congregation of Israel will keep it.
48 And when a stranger will sojourn with you, and will keep the passover to the LORD [Yahweh], let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he will be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person will eat of it.
49 One law will be to him that is homeborn, and to the stranger that sojourns among you.
50 Thus did all the children of Israel; as the LORD [Yahweh] commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
51 And it came to pass the selfsame day, [that] the LORD [Yahweh] brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
