Exodus 12:40-51

40Now the time 1that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was 2four hundred and thirty years. 41And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, 3to 4the very day, 5all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 426It is a night 7to be observed for the Lord for having brought them out from the land of Egypt; this night is for the Lord, 8to be observed 9by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.

43The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of 10the Passover: no 1112foreigner is to eat of it; 44but every man’s 13slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. 4514A 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, 15nor are you to break any bone of it. 4716All the congregation of Israel are to 17celebrate this. 48But 18if a 19stranger sojourns with you, and 20celebrates the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to 21celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 492223The same law shall 24apply to the native as to the 25stranger 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 26the Lord brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt 2728by their hosts.
