Exodus 12:18-36

18In the firstH7223 monthH2320, on the fourteenth dayH3117 of the monthH2320 at evenH5704, ye shall eatH398 unleavenedH4682 breadH4682, untilH5704 the one and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 at evenH5704.

19SevenH7651 daysH3117 shall there be noH3808 leavenH7603 foundH4672 in your housesH1004: for whosoever eateth that whichH1931 is leavenedH2557, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 offH3772 from the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, whether he be a sojournerH1616, or one that is bornH3808 in the landH776.

20Ye shall eatH398 nothingH3808 leavenedH2557; in allH3605 your habitationsH4186 shall ye eatH398 unleavenedH4682 breadH4682.

21Then MosesH4872 calledH7121 for allH3605 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559 unto them, DrawH4900 outH413, and takeH3947 youH3605 lambsH6629 accordingH413 to your familiesH4940, and killH7819 the passoverH6453.

22And ye shall takeH3947 a bunchH92 of hyssopH231, and dipH2881 it in the bloodH1818 that is in the bason, and strikeH5060 the lintelH4947 and the twoH8147 side postsH4201 with the bloodH1818 that is in the bason; and noneH3808 of youH859 shall goH3318 outH3318 of the doorH6607 of his houseH1004 untilH5704 the morningH1242.

23For the LORDH3068 will passH5674 throughH5674 to smiteH5062 the EgyptiansH4714; and when he seeth the bloodH1818 uponH5921 the lintelH4947, and on the twoH8147 side postsH4201, the LORDH3068 will passH5674 over the doorH6607, and will notH3808 sufferH1004 the destroyerH7843 to comeH935 in unto your housesH1004 to smiteH5062 youH5414.

24And ye shall observeH8104 this thingH1697 for an ordinanceH2706 to thee and to thy sonsH1121 for everH5769.

25And it shall comeH935 to passH935, when ye be comeH935 to the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 will giveH5414 youH834, accordingH413 as he hath promisedH1696, that ye shall keepH8104 this serviceH5656.

26And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, when your childrenH1121 shall sayH559 unto youH3588, WhatH4100 mean ye by this serviceH5656?

27that ye shall sayH559, It is the sacrificeH2077 of the LORD’SH3068 passoverH6453, who passed over the housesH1004 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in EgyptH4714, when he smoteH5062 the EgyptiansH4714, and deliveredH5337 our housesH1004. And the peopleH5971 bowedH7812 the head and worshipped.

28And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 went and didH6213 soH3651; as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872 and AaronH175, soH3651 didH6213 they.

29And it cameH1961 to passH1961 at midnight, that the LORDH3068 smoteH5221 allH3605 the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from the firstbornH1060 of PharaohH6547 that satH3427 on his throneH3678 unto the firstbornH1060 of the captive that was in the dungeon; and allH3605 the firstbornH1060 of cattleH929.

30And PharaohH6547 roseH6965 upH6965 in the nightH3915, he, and allH3605 his servantsH5650, and allH3605 the EgyptiansH4714; and there was a greatH1419 cryH6818 in EgyptH4714; for there was notH369 a houseH1004 whereH834 there was notH369 one deadH4191.

31And he calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175 by nightH3915, and saidH559, RiseH6965 upH6965, getH6965 youH859 forthH3318 from among my peopleH5971, bothH1571 ye and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; and goH3318, serveH5647 the LORDH3068, as ye have saidH559.

32TakeH3947 bothH1571 your flocksH6629 and your herdsH1241, as ye have saidH1696, and be gone; and blessH1288 meH3947 also.

33And the EgyptiansH4713 were urgent uponH5921 the peopleH5971, to sendH7971 them outH2388 of the landH776 in hasteH4116; for they saidH559, WeH3588 be allH3605 deadH4191 menH5971.

34And the peopleH5971 tookH5375 their doughH1217 beforeH2962 it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound upH5375 in their clothesH8071 uponH5921 their shouldersH7926.

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 raiment:

36and the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 the peopleH5971 favour in the sightH5869 of the EgyptiansH4714, soH5414 that they letH5414 them have what they askedH7592. And they spoiled the EgyptiansH4714.
