Exodus 12:31-42

31So he called for Moses and Aaron at night and said, “Rise up, go out from my people, both you and Bnei-Yisrael, go, serve Adonai as you have said.

32Take your flocks and your herds, as you said, and be gone! But bless me, too.”

33Now the Egyptians urged the people, sending them out of the land quickly, for they thought, “We will all be dead!”

34So the people took their dough before it was leavened, with their kneading bowls bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.

35So Bnei-Yisrael acted ­according to the word of Moses. They asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing.

36Adonai gave the people favor in the eyes of the Egyptians and let them have what they asked for. So they plundered the Egyptians.

37Then Bnei-Yisrael journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about 600,000 men on foot, as well as children.

38Also a mixed multitude went up with them, along with the flocks, herds and heavy livestock.

39They had baked matzot cakes from the dough that they brought out of Egypt. It had no hametz, because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not delay, so they had not made provisions for themselves.

40Now the time that Bnei-Yisrael lived in Egypt was 430 years.

41So it happened at the end of 430 years, to the very day, that all the armies of Adonai went out from the land of Egypt.

42It was a night of watching for Adonai to bring them out of the land of Egypt. This same night is a night of vigil for Adonai, for all Bnei-Yisrael throughout their generations.
