Exodus 12:31-51

31Then 1he calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175 at nightH3915 and saidH559, “RiseH6965 up, 2getH3318 out from amongH8432 my peopleH5971, bothH1571 you and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; and goH1980, 3worshipH5647 the LordH3068, as you have saidH1696. 32TakeH3947 4bothH1571 your flocksH6629 and your herdsH1241, as you have saidH1696, and goH1980, and blessH1288 me alsoH1571.” 335The EgyptiansH4714 urgedH2388H5921 the peopleH5971, to sendH7971 them out of the landH776 in hasteH4116, for they saidH559, “We will allH3605 be deadH4191.” 34So the peopleH5971 tookH5375 6their doughH1217 beforeH2962 it was leavenedH2556, with their kneadingH4863 bowlsH4863 boundH6887 up in the clothesH8071 on their shouldersH7926.

357Now the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 had doneH6213 according to the wordH1697 of MosesH4872, for they had requestedH7592 from the EgyptiansH4714 articlesH3627 of silverH3701 and articlesH3627 of goldH2091, and clothingH8071; 36and the LordH3068 had givenH5414 the peopleH5971 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of the EgyptiansH4714, so that they let them have their requestH7592. Thus they 8plunderedH5337 the EgyptiansH4714.

37Now the 9sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 journeyedH5265 from 10RamesesH7486 to SuccothH5523, about 11sixH8337 hundredH3967 thousandH505 menH1397 on footH7273, asideH905 from childrenH2945. 38A 12mixedH6154 multitudeH7227 alsoH1571 wentH5927 up with them, 13along with flocksH6629 and herdsH1241, a 14veryH3966 largeH3515 numberH3515 of livestockH4735. 39They bakedH644 the doughH1217 whichH834 they had broughtH3318 out of EgyptH4714 into cakesH5692 of unleavenedH4682 breadH4682. For it had not becomeH2556 leavenedH2556, sinceH3588 they were 15drivenH1644 out of EgyptH4714 and couldH3201 not delayH4102, norH1571H3808 had they 16preparedH6213 anyH1571 provisionsH6720 for themselves.

40Now the timeH4186 17that the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 livedH3427 in EgyptH4714 was 18fourH702 hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141. 41And at the endH7093 of fourH702 hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, 19to 20the veryH6106 dayH3117, 21allH3605 the hostsH6635 of the LordH3068 wentH3318 out from the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 4222It is a nightH3915 23to be observedH8107 for the LordH3068 for having broughtH3318 them out from the landH776 of EgyptH4714; thisH2088 nightH3915 is for the LordH3068, 24to be observedH8107 25by allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 throughout their generationsH1755.

43The LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175, “ThisH2088 is the ordinanceH2708 of 26the PassoverH6453: noH3605H3808 2728foreignerH1121H5236 is to eatH398 of it; 44but everyH3605 man’sH376 29slaveH5650 purchasedH4736 with moneyH3701, after you have circumcisedH4135 him, thenH227 he may eatH398 of it. 4530A sojournerH8453 or a hiredH7916 servantH7916 shall not eatH398 of it. 46It is to be eatenH398 in a singleH259 houseH1004; you are not to bringH3318 forthH3318 anyH4480 of the fleshH1320 outsideH2351 of the houseH1004, 31norH3808 are you to breakH7665 any boneH6106 of it. 4732AllH3605 the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 are to 33celebrateH6213 this. 48But 34ifH3588 a 35strangerH1616 sojournsH1481 with you, and 36celebratesH6213 the PassoverH6453 to the LordH3068, let allH3605 his malesH2145 be circumcisedH4135, and thenH227 let him comeH7126 nearH7126 to 37celebrateH6213 it; and he shall be like a nativeH249 of the landH776. But noH3605H3808 uncircumcisedH6189 person may eatH398 of it. 493839The sameH259 lawH8451 shall 40applyH1961 to the nativeH249 as to the 41strangerH1616 who sojournsH1481 amongH8432 you.”

50Then allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 so; they didH6213 justH3512 as the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872 and AaronH175. 51And on that sameH6106 dayH3117 42the LordH3068 broughtH3318 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 4344by their hostsH6635.
