Exodus 12:31-42

31Then 1he called for Moses and Aaron at night and said, “Rise up, 2get out from among my people, both you and the sons of Israel; and go, 3worship the Lord, as you have said. 32Take 4both your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and go, and bless me also.” 335The Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, “We will all be dead.” 34So the people took 6their dough before it was leavened, with their kneading bowls bound up in the clothes on their shoulders.

357Now the sons of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, for they had requested from the Egyptians articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing; 36and the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have their request. Thus they 8plundered the Egyptians.

37Now the 9sons of Israel journeyed from 10Rameses to Succoth, about 11six hundred thousand men on foot, aside from children. 38A 12mixed multitude also went up with them, 13along with flocks and herds, a 14very large number of livestock. 39They baked the dough which they had brought out of Egypt into cakes of unleavened bread. For it had not become leavened, since they were 15driven out of Egypt and could not delay, nor had they 16prepared any provisions for themselves.

40Now the time 17that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was 18four hundred and thirty years. 41And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, 19to 20the very day, 21all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 4222It is a night 23to be observed for the Lord for having brought them out from the land of Egypt; this night is for the Lord, 24to be observed 25by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.
