Exodus 12:34-51

34So the people took 1their dough before it was leavened, with their kneading bowls bound up in the clothes on their shoulders.

352Now 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 3plundered the Egyptians.

37Now the 4sons of Israel journeyed from 5Rameses to Succoth, about 6six hundred thousand men on foot, aside from children. 38A 7mixed multitude also went up with them, 8along with flocks and herds, a 9very 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 10driven out of Egypt and could not delay, nor had they 11prepared any provisions for themselves.

40Now the time 12that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was 13four hundred and thirty years. 41And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, 14to 15the very day, 16all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 4217It is a night 18to be observed for the Lord for having brought them out from the land of Egypt; this night is for the Lord, 19to be observed 20by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.

43The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of 21the Passover: no 2223foreigner is to eat of it; 44but every man’s 24slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. 4525A sojourner or a hired servant shall not eat of it. 46It is to be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring forth any of the flesh outside of the house, 26nor are you to break any bone of it. 4727All the congregation of Israel are to 28celebrate this. 48But 29if a 30stranger sojourns with you, and 31celebrates the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to 32celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 493334The same law shall 35apply to the native as to the 36stranger who sojourns among you.”

50Then all the sons of Israel did so; they did just as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron. 51And on that same day 37the Lord brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt 3839by their hosts.
