Exodus 12:3-8

3SpeakH1696 ye unto all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, In the tenth day of this monthH2320 they shall takeH3947 to them every manH376 a lambH7716, according to their fathers’H1 housesH1004, a lambH7716 for a householdH1004:

4and if the householdH1004 beH1961 too littleH4591 for a lambH7716, then shall he and his neighborH7934 next unto his houseH1004 takeH3947 oneH376 according to the number of the soulsH5315; according to every man’sH376 eating ye shall makeH4591 your count for the lambH7716.

5Your lambH3532 shall beH1961 without blemish, a maleH2145 a yearH8141 old: ye shall takeH3947 it from the sheepH7716, or from the goatsH5795:

6and ye shall keepH4931 it until the fourteenth dayH3117 of the same monthH2320; and the whole assemblyH6951 of the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 shall kill it at even.

7And they shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818, and putH5414 it on the twoH8147 side-posts and on the lintelH4947, upon the housesH1004 wherein they shall eatH398 it.

8And they shall eatH398 the fleshH1320 in that nightH3915, roastH6748 with fireH784, and unleavenedH4682 breadH4682; with bitterH4844 herbsH4844 they shall eatH398 it.
