Exodus 12:14-20

14And thisH2088 dayH3117 will beH1961 a memorialH2146 for you, and you are to celebrateH2287 itH853 as a feastH2282 to the LORDH3068, as a permanentH5769 statuteH2708 for the generations to comeH1755. 15For sevenH7651 daysH3117 you must eatH398H389 unleavened breadH4682. On the firstH7223 dayH3117 you are to removeH7673 the leavenH7603 from your housesH1004H3588. WhoeverH3605 eatsH398 anything leavenedH2557 from the firstH7223 dayH3117 throughH5704 the seventhH7637H3117 must be cut offH3772H5315H1931 from IsraelH3478.

16On the firstH7223 dayH3117 you are to holdH1961 a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744, and anotherH6944H4744 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117. You must notH3808 doH6213 any workH4399 on those daysH389, except to prepareH834 the mealsH398—thatH1931 is allH905 you may doH6213.

17So you are to keepH8104 the Feast of Unleavened BreadH4682,1 forH3588 on thisH2088 veryH6106 dayH3117 I broughtH3318 your divisionsH6635 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. You must keepH8104 thisH2088 dayH3117 as a permanentH5769 statuteH2708 for the generations to comeH1755. 18In the firstH7223 month you are to eatH398 unleavened breadH4682, from the eveningH6153 of the fourteenthH702H6240 dayH3117H2320 untilH5704 the eveningH6153 of the twenty-firstH259H6242H2320 dayH3117. 19For sevenH7651 daysH3117 there must be noH3808 leavenH7603 foundH4672 in your housesH1004. IfH3588 anyoneH3605 eatsH398 something leavenedH2557, thatH1931 personH5315, whether a foreignerH1616 or nativeH249 of the landH776, must be cut offH3772 from the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478. 20You are notH3808 to eatH398 anythingH3605 leavenedH2557; eatH398 unleavened breadH4682 in allH3605 your homesH4186.”
