1	And the LORD spake# unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying# ,
			2	This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
			3	Speak# ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying# , In the tenth day of this month they shall take# to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house: [lamb: or, kid]
			4	And if the household be# too little# for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take# it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count# for the lamb.
			5	Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take# it out from the sheep, or from the goats: [of...: Heb. son of a year]
			6	And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth# day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill# it in the evening. [in...: Heb. between the two evenings]
			7	And they shall take# of the blood, and strike# it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat# it.
			8	And they shall eat# the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat# it.
			9	Eat# not of it raw, nor sodden# # at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.
			10	And ye shall let nothing of it remain# until the morning; and that which remaineth# of it until the morning ye shall burn# with fire.
			11	And thus shall ye eat# it; with your loins girded# , your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat# it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover.
			12	For I will pass# through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite# all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute# judgment: I am the LORD. [gods: or, princes]
			13	And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are : and when I see# the blood, I will pass# over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you , when I smite# the land of Egypt. [to destroy...: Heb. for a destruction]
			14	And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep# it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast# by an ordinance for ever.
			15	Seven days shall ye eat# unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away# leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth# leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut# off from Israel.
			16	And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done# in them, save that which every man must eat# , that only may be done# of you. [man: Heb. soul]
			17	And ye shall observe# the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought# your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe# this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.
			18	In the first month , on the fourteenth# day of the month at even, ye shall eat# unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even.
			19	Seven days shall there be no leaven found# in your houses: for whosoever eateth# that which is leavened# , even that soul shall be cut off# from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.
			20	Ye shall eat# nothing leavened# ; in all your habitations shall ye eat# unleavened bread.
			21	Then Moses called# for all the elders of Israel, and said# unto them, Draw out# and take# you a lamb according to your families, and kill# the passover. [lamb: or, kid]
			22	And ye shall take# a bunch of hyssop, and dip# it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike# the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out# at the door of his house until the morning.
			23	For the LORD will pass through# to smite# the Egyptians; and when he seeth# the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over# the door, and will not suffer# the destroyer# to come# in unto your houses to smite# you .
			24	And ye shall observe# this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.
			25	And it shall come to pass, when ye be come# to the land which the LORD will give# you, according as he hath promised# , that ye shall keep# this service.
			26	And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say# unto you, What mean ye by this service?
			27	That ye shall say# , It is the sacrifice of the LORD'S passover, who passed# over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote# the Egyptians, and delivered# our houses. And the people bowed the head# and worshipped# .
			28	And the children of Israel went away# , and did# as the LORD had commanded# Moses and Aaron, so did# they.
			29	And it came to pass, that at midnight# the LORD smote# all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat# on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon# ; and all the firstborn of cattle. [dungeon: Heb. house of the pit]
			30	And Pharaoh rose up# in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead# .
			31	And he called# for Moses and Aaron by night, and said# , Rise up# , and get you forth# from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go# , serve# the LORD, as ye have said# .
			32	Also take# your flocks and your herds, as ye have said# , and be gone# ; and bless# me also.
			33	And the Egyptians were urgent# upon the people, that they might send# them out of the land in haste# ; for they said# , We be all dead# men .
			34	And the people took# their dough before it was leavened# , their kneadingtroughs being bound up# in their clothes upon their shoulders. [kneadingtroughs: or, dough]
			35	And the children of Israel did# according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed# of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:
			36	And the LORD gave# the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent# unto them such things as they required . And they spoiled# the Egyptians.
			37	And the children of Israel journeyed# from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children.
			38	And a mixed multitude went up# also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. [a mixed...: Heb. a great mixture]
			39	And they baked# unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth# out of Egypt, for it was not leavened# ; because they were thrust out# of Egypt, and could# not tarry# , neither had they prepared# for themselves any victual.
			40	Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt# in Egypt, was four hundred# and thirty years.
			41	And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred# and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out# from the land of Egypt.
			42	It is a night to be much observed unto the LORD for bringing# them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations. [a night...: Heb. a night of observations]
			43	And the LORD said# unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger# eat# thereof:
			44	But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised# him, then shall he eat# thereof.
			45	A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat# thereof.
			46	In one house shall it be eaten# ; thou shalt not carry forth# ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break# a bone thereof.
			47	All the congregation of Israel shall keep# it. [keep...: Heb. do it]
			48	And when a stranger shall sojourn# with thee, and will keep# the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised# , and then let him come near# and keep# it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat# thereof.
			49	One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth# among you.
			50	Thus did# all the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded# Moses and Aaron, so did# they.
			51	And it came to pass the selfsame day, that the LORD did bring# the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
