Exodus 12:18-36
18In the firstH7223 month, on the fourteenthH702H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 at evenH6153, ye shall eatH398 unleavened breadH4682, until the oneH259 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 at evenH6153. 19SevenH7651 daysH3117 shall there be no leavenH7603 foundH4672 in your housesH1004: for whosoever eatethH398 that which is leavenedH2556, even that soulH5315 shall be cut offH3772 from the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, whether he be a strangerH1616, or bornH249 in the landH776. 20Ye shall eatH398 nothing leavenedH2556; in all your habitationsH4186 shall ye eatH398 unleavened breadH4682.
21Then MosesH4872 calledH7121 for all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559 unto them, Draw outH4900 and takeH3947 you a lambH6629 according to your familiesH4940, and killH7819 the passoverH6453.1 22And ye shall takeH3947 a bunchH92 of hyssopH231, and dipH2881 it in the bloodH1818 that is in the basonH5592, and strikeH5060 the lintelH4947 and the twoH8147 side postsH4201 with the bloodH1818 that is in the basonH5592; and noneH376 of you shall go outH3318 at the doorH6607 of his houseH1004 until the morningH1242. 23For YhwhH3068 will pass throughH5674 to smiteH5062 the EgyptiansH4714; and when he seethH7200 the bloodH1818 upon the lintelH4947, and on the twoH8147 side postsH4201, YhwhH3068 will pass overH6452 the doorH6607, and will not sufferH5414 the destroyerH7843 to comeH935 in unto your housesH1004 to smiteH5062 you. 24And ye shall observeH8104 this thingH1697 for an ordinanceH2706 to thee and to thy sonsH1121 forH5704 everH5769. 25And it shall come to pass, when ye be comeH935 to the landH776 which YhwhH3068 will giveH5414 you, according as he hath promisedH1696, that ye shall keepH8104 this serviceH5656. 26And it shall come to pass, when your childrenH1121 shall sayH559 unto you, What mean ye by this serviceH5656? 27That ye shall sayH559, It is the sacrificeH2077 of Yhwh’sH3068 passoverH6453, who passedH6452 over the housesH1004 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in EgyptH4714, when he smoteH5062 the EgyptiansH4714, and deliveredH5337 our housesH1004. And the peopleH5971 bowed the headH6915 and worshippedH7812. 28And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 went awayH3212, and didH6213 as YhwhH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, so didH6213 they.
29And it came to pass, that at midnightH3915H2677 YhwhH3068 smoteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from the firstbornH1060 of PharaohH6547 that satH3427 on his throneH3678 unto the firstbornH1060 of the captiveH7628 that was in the dungeonH953H1004; and all the firstbornH1060 of cattleH929.2 30And PharaohH6547 rose upH6965 in the nightH3915, he, and all his servantsH5650, and all the EgyptiansH4714; and there was a greatH1419 cryH6818 in EgyptH4714; for there was not a houseH1004 where there was not one deadH4191.
31And he calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175 by nightH3915, and saidH559, Rise upH6965, and get you forthH3318 from amongH8432 my peopleH5971, both ye and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; and goH3212, serveH5647 YhwhH3068, as ye have saidH1696. 32Also takeH3947 your flocksH6629 and your herdsH1241, as ye have saidH1696, and be goneH3212; and blessH1288 me also. 33And the EgyptiansH4714 were urgentH2388 upon the peopleH5971, that they might sendH7971 them out of the landH776 in hasteH4116; for they saidH559, We be all deadH4191 men. 34And the peopleH5971 tookH5375 their doughH1217 before it was leavenedH2556, their kneadingtroughsH4863 being bound upH6887 in their clothesH8071 upon their shouldersH7926.3 35And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 according to the wordH1697 of MosesH4872; and they askedH7592 of the EgyptiansH4714 jewelsH3627 of silverH3701, and jewelsH3627 of goldH2091, and raimentH8071: 36And YhwhH3068 gaveH5414 the peopleH5971 favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of the EgyptiansH4714, so that they let them haveH7592 such things as they required. And they spoiledH5337 the EgyptiansH4714.
