4Now ifH518 the householdH1004 is tooH4480 smallH4591 for a 4lambH7716, then he and his neighborH7934 nearestH7138 to his houseH1004 are to takeH3947 one according to the 5numberH4373 of personsH5315 in them; accordingH6310 to 6what eachH376 manH376 should eatH398, you are to 7divideH3699 the lambH7716.
5Your 8lambH7716 shall be 9an unblemishedH8549 maleH2145 a yearH8141 oldH1121; you may takeH3947 it from the sheepH3532 or from the goatsH5795.
610You shall keepH1961H4931 it untilH5704 the 11fourteenthH702H6240 dayH3117 of the sameH2088 monthH2320, then the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 of the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 is to killH7819 it 1213at twilightH6153.
