Exodus 12:3-14

3SpeakH1696 unto all the assemblyH5712 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, On the tenth of this monthH2320 let them takeH3947 themselves each a lambH7716, for a father's houseH1004, a lambH7716 for a houseH1004.

4And if the householdH1004 beH1961 too smallH4591 for a lambH7716, let him and his neighbour next unto his houseH1004 takeH3947 [it] according to the number of the soulsH5315; each according to [the measure] of his eating shall ye count for the lambH7716.

5Your lambH3532 shall beH1961 without blemish, a yearling maleH2145; ye shall takeH3947 [it] from the sheepH7716, or from the goatsH5795.

6And ye shall keepH4931 it until the fourteenth dayH3117 of this monthH2320; and the whole congregationH5712 of the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478 shall kill it between the two eveningsH6153.

7And they shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818, and putH5414 [it] on the twoH8147 door-posts and on the lintelH4947 of the housesH1004 in which they eatH398 it.

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

9Ye shall eatH398 none of it raw, nor boiledH1310 at all with waterH4325, but roastH6748 with fireH784; its headH7218 with its legsH3767 and with its in-wards.

10And ye shall let none of it remainH3498 until the morningH1242; and what remaineth of it until the morningH1242 ye shall burnH8313 with fireH784.

11And thusH3602 shall ye eatH398 it: your loinsH4975 shall be girdedH2296, your sandalsH5275 on your feetH7272, and your staffH4731 in your handH3027; and ye shall eatH398 it in hasteH2649; it is Jehovah's passoverH6453.

12And I will go through the landH776 of EgyptH4714 in that nightH3915, and smite all the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both manH120 and beast; and against all the 1godsH430 of EgyptH4714 I will execute judgmentH8201: I am Jehovah.

13And the bloodH1818 shall beH1961 for you as a signH226 on the housesH1004 in which ye are; and when I seeH7200 the bloodH1818, I will pass over you; and the plagueH5063 shall not beH1961 among you for destructionH4889, when I smite the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

14And this dayH3117 shall beH1961 unto you for a memorialH2146; and ye shall celebrateH2287 it [as] a feastH2282 to Jehovah; throughout your generationsH1755 [as] an ordinance for everH5769 shall ye celebrateH2287 it.
