Exodus 12:8-15

8They shall eat the flesh 1that same night, 2roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with 3unleavened bread 45and bitter herbs. 9Do not eat any of it raw or boiled at all with water, but rather 6roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with 7its entrails. 108And you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you shall completely burn with fire. 11Now you shall eat it in this way: with your garment 9belted around your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in a hurry--it is 10the Lord’s Passover. 12For 11I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and fatally strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the human firstborn to animals; and 12against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments--13I am the Lord. 1314The blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you 15live; and when I see the blood I will pass over you, and no plague will come upon you 16to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.

14‘Now 17this day shall be 18a memorial to you, and you shall celebrate it as a feast to the Lord; throughout your generations you are to celebrate it as 1920a permanent ordinance. 15For 21seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, but on the first day you shall remove dough with yeast from your houses; for whoever eats anything with yeast from the first day until the seventh day, 22that 23person shall be cut off from Israel.
