Exodus 12:3-30

3SpeakH1696 ye unto all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, In the tenthH6218 day of this monthH2320 they shall takeH3947 to them every manH376 a lambH7716, according to the houseH1004 of their fathersH1, a lambH7716 for an houseH1004:1 4And if the householdH1004 beH1961 too littleH4591 for the lambH7716, let him and his neighbourH7934 nextH7138 unto his houseH1004 takeH3947 it according to the numberH4373 of the soulsH5315; every manH376 accordingH6310 to his eatingH400 shall make your countH3699 for the lambH7716. 5Your lambH7716 shall be without blemishH8549, a maleH2145 of the firstH1121 yearH8141: ye shall takeH3947 it out from the sheepH3532, or from the goatsH5795:2 6And ye shall keepH4931 it up until the fourteenthH6240H702 dayH3117 of the same monthH2320: and the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 of the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 shall killH7819 it inH996 the eveningH6153.3 7And they shall takeH3947 of the bloodH1818, and strikeH5414 it on the twoH8147 side postsH4201 and on the upper door postH4947 of the housesH1004, wherein they shall eatH398 it. 8And they shall eatH398 the fleshH1320 in that nightH3915, roastH6748 with fireH784, and unleavened breadH4682; and with bitterH4844 herbs they shall eatH398 it. 9EatH398 not of it rawH4995, nor soddenH1311H1310 at all with waterH4325, but roastH6748 with fireH784; his headH7218 with his legsH3767, and with the purtenanceH7130 thereof. 10And ye shall let nothing of it remainH3498 until the morningH1242; and that which remainethH3498 of it until the morningH1242 ye shall burnH8313 with fireH784.

11And thusH3602 shall ye eatH398 it; with your loinsH4975 girdedH2296, your shoesH5275 on your feetH7272, and your staffH4731 in your handH3027; and ye shall eatH398 it in hasteH2649: it is Yhwh’sH3068 passoverH6453. 12For I will passH5674 through the landH776 of EgyptH4714 this nightH3915, and will smiteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both manH120 and beastH929; and against all the godsH430 of EgyptH4714 I will executeH6213 judgmentH8201: I am YhwhH3068.4 13And the bloodH1818 shall be to you for a tokenH226 upon the housesH1004 where ye are: and when I seeH7200 the bloodH1818, I will passH6452 over you, and the plagueH5063 shall not be upon you to destroyH4889 you, when I smiteH5221 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.5 14And this dayH3117 shall be unto you for a memorialH2146; and ye shall keepH2287 it a feastH2282 to YhwhH3068 throughout your generationsH1755; ye shall keep it a feastH2287 by an ordinanceH2708 for everH5769. 15SevenH7651 daysH3117 shall ye eatH398 unleavened breadH4682; evenH389 the firstH7223 dayH3117 ye shall put awayH7673 leavenH7603 out of your housesH1004: for whosoever eatethH398 leavened breadH2557 from the firstH7223 dayH3117 until the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 off from IsraelH3478. 16And in the firstH7223 dayH3117 there shall be an holyH6944 convocationH4744, and in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 there shall be an holyH6944 convocationH4744 to you; no manner of workH4399 shall be doneH6213 in them, saveH389 that which every manH5315 must eatH398, that only may be doneH6213 of you.6 17And ye shall observeH8104 the feast of unleavened breadH4682; for in this selfsameH6106 dayH3117 have I broughtH3318 your armiesH6635 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: therefore shall ye observeH8104 this dayH3117 in your generationsH1755 by an ordinanceH2708 for everH5769.

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 passoverH6453.7 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 cattleH929.8 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.
