2 “For you, this month will be the start of months, the first month of the year to you.
The month this for you [will be the] beginning of months [will be] first it for you of [the] months of the year.
3 Tell the assembly of Israel, 'On the tenth day of this month they must each take a lamb or young goat for themselves, each family doing this, a lamb for each household.
Speak to all [the] congregation of Israel saying on the ten of the month this so they may take for themselves everyone a lamb for a household of fathers a lamb for the household.
4 If the household is too small for a lamb, the man and his next door neighbor are to take lamb or young goat meat that will be enough for the number of the people. It should be enough for everyone to eat, so they must take enough meat to feed them all.
And if it will be [too] small the household for being for a lamb and he will take he and neighbor his near to house his by [the] number of people each one to [the] mouth of food his you will estimate on the lamb.
5 Your lamb or young goat must be without blemish, a one-year-old male. You may take one of the sheep or goats.
A lamb unblemished male a son of a year it will be for you one of the lambs and one of the goats you will take.
6 You must keep it until the fourteenth day of that month. Then the whole assembly of Israel must kill these animals at twilight.
And it will be for you for safekeeping until [the] four-teen day of the month this and they will slaughter it all [the] assembly of [the] congregation of Israel between the two evenings.
7 You must take some of the blood and put it on the two side doorposts and on the tops of the doorframes of the houses in which you will eat the meat.
And they will take some of the blood and they will put [it] on [the] two the doorposts and on the lintels on the houses which they will eat it in them.
8 You must eat the meat that night, after first roasting it over a fire. Eat it with bread made without yeast, along with bitter herbs.
And they will eat the meat in the night this roasted of fire and unleavened bread with bitter herbs they will eat it.

12 Yahweh says this: I will go through the land of Egypt in that night and attack all the firstborn of man and animal in the land of Egypt. I will bring punishment on all the gods of Egypt. I am Yahweh.
And I will pass in [the] land of Egypt in the night this and I will strike every firstborn in [the] land of Egypt from humankind and unto livestock and on all [the] gods of Egypt I will do acts of judgment I [am] Yahweh.
13 The blood will be a sign on your houses for my coming to you. When I see the blood, I will pass over you when I attack the land of Egypt. This plague will not come on you and destroy you.
And it will become the blood for you a sign on the houses where you [are] there and I will see the blood and I will pass over over you and not it will be among you a plague for destruction when strike I in [the] land of Egypt.

15 You will eat bread without yeast during seven days. On the first day you will remove the yeast from your houses. Whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person must be cut off from Israel.
Seven days unleavened bread you will eat surely on the day first you will remove leaven from houses your for - any [one who] eats leaven and he will be cut off the person that from Israel from [the] day first until [the] day seventh.
16 On the first day there will be an assembly that is set apart to me, and on the seventh day there will be another such gathering. No work will be done on these days, except the cooking for everyone to eat. That must be the only work that may be done by you.
And [will be] on the day first a convocation of holiness and on the day seventh a convocation of holiness it will be to you any work not it will be done on them only [that] which it will be eaten by every person it to only it it will be done by you.

Any thing leavened not you will eat in all dwelling places your you will eat unleavened bread.
21 Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs or kids that will be enough to feed your families and kill the Passover lamb.
And he summoned Moses all [the] elders of Israel and he said to them draw and take for yourselves sheep to clans your and slaughter the passover.
22 Then take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that will be in a basin. Apply the blood in the basin to the top of the doorframe and the two doorposts. None of you is to go out of the door of his house until the morning.
And you will take a bunch of hyssop and you will dip [it] in the blood which [is] in the basin and you will make touch the lintels and [the] two the doorposts some of the blood which [is] in the basin and you not you will go out anyone from [the] door of house his until morning.
23 For Yahweh will pass through to attack the Egyptians. When he sees the blood on the top of the doorframe and on the two doorposts, he will pass over your door and not permit the destroyer to come into your houses to attack you.
And he will pass through Yahweh to strike Egypt and he will see the blood on the lintels and on [the] two the doorposts and he will pass over Yahweh over the doorway and not he will permit the destroyer to come into houses your to strike [you].
24 You must observe this event. This will always be a law for you and your descendants.
And you will keep the word this to a decree for yourself and for children your until perpetuity.
25 When you enter the land that Yahweh will give you, just as he has promised to do, you must observe this act of worship.
And it will be that you will come into the land which he will give Yahweh to you just as he said and you will keep the service this.
26 When your children ask you, 'What does this act of worship mean?'
And it will be that they will say to you children your what? [is] the service this to you.
27 then you must say, 'It is the sacrifice of Yahweh's Passover, because Yahweh passed over the Israelites' houses in Egypt when he attacked the Egyptians. He set our households free.'” Then the people bowed down and worshiped Yahweh.
And you will say [is] a sacrifice of passover it to Yahweh who he passed over over [the] houses of [the] people of Israel in Egypt when struck he Egypt and houses our he delivered and it bowed low the people and they bowed down.
28 The Israelites went and did exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron.
And they went and they did [the] people of Israel just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and Aaron so they did.
29 It happened at midnight that Yahweh attacked all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on his throne, to the firstborn of the person in prison and all the firstborn of cattle.
And it was - in [the] middle of the night and Yahweh he struck every firstborn in [the] land of Egypt from [the] firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on throne his unto [the] firstborn of the prisoner who [was] in [the] house of the cistern and every firstborn of livestock.
30 Pharaoh got up in the night—he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians. There was loud lamenting in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not someone dead.
And he arose Pharaoh night he and all servants his and all Egypt and it was a cry great in Egypt for there not [was] a house where there not there [was] a dead [person].
31 Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron in the night and said, “Get up, get out from among my people, you and the Israelites. Go, worship Yahweh, as you have said you wanted to do.
And he summoned Moses and Aaron night and he said arise go out from among people my both you as well as [the] people of Israel and go serve Yahweh as said you.
32 Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and go, and also bless me.”
Both flock[s] your as well as herd[s] your take just as you said and go and you will bless also me.
33 The Egyptians were in a great hurry to send them out of the land, for they said, “We will all die.”
And it urged Egypt on the people to hurry to send away them from the land for they said all of us [are] about to die.
34 So the people took their dough without adding any yeast. Their kneading bowls were already tied up in their clothes and on their shoulders.
And it carried off the people dough its before it was leavened kneading troughs their [were] bound up in clothes their on shoulder their.
35 Now the people of Israel did as Moses told them. They asked the Egyptians for articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing.
And [the] people of Israel they did according to [the] word of Moses and they asked from Egypt articles of silver and articles of gold and clothes.
36 Yahweh made the Egyptians eager to please the Israelites. So the Egyptians gave them whatever they asked for. In this way, the Israelites plundered the Egyptians.
And Yahweh he gave [the] favor of the people in [the] eyes of Egypt and they granted [the] request them and they plundered Egypt.
37 The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Succoth. They numbered about 600,000 men on foot, in addition to the women and children.
And they set out [the] people of Israel from Rameses Succoth towards [were] about six hundred thousand foot soldier[s] the men apart from little one[s].
38 A mixed multitude also went with them, together with flocks and herds, a very large number of livestock.
And also a mixed company numerous it went up with them and flock[s] and herd[s] livestock numerous very.
39 They baked bread without yeast in the dough that they brought from Egypt. It was without yeast because they had been driven out of Egypt and could not delay to prepare food.
And they baked the dough which they had brought out from Egypt bread cakes unleavened bread for not it was leavened for they had been driven out from Egypt and not they had been able to delay and also provision[s] not they had made for themselves.
40 The Israelites had lived in Egypt for 430 years.
And [the] dwelling of [the] people of Israel which they dwelt in Egypt [was] thirty year[s] and four hundred year[s].
41 At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all of Yahweh's armed groups went out from the land of Egypt.
And it was from [the] end of thirty year[s] and four hundred year[s] and it was on [the] substance of the day this they went out all [the] hosts of Yahweh from [the] land of Egypt.
42 This was a night to stay awake, for Yahweh to bring them out from the land of Egypt. This was Yahweh's night to be observed by all the Israelites throughout their people's generations.
[was] a night of Vigil it for Yahweh to bring out them from [the] land of Egypt it the night this for Yahweh vigil for all [the] people of Israel to generations their.
43 Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Here is the rule for the Passover: No foreigner may share in eating it.
And he said Yahweh to Moses and Aaron this [is] [the] statute of the passover any son of foreignness not he will eat in it.
44 However, every Israelite's slave, bought with money, may eat it after you have circumcised him.
And every slave of anyone [the] purchase of silver and you will circumcise him then he will eat in it.
45 Foreigners and hired servants must not eat any of the food.
A resident alien and a hired laborer not he will eat in it.
46 The food must be eaten in one house. You must not carry any of the meat out of the house, and you must not break any bone of it.
In a house one it will be eaten not you will bring out from the house any of the meat [the] outside towards and a bone not you will break in it.
47 All the community of Israel must observe the festival.
All [the] congregation of Israel they will do it.
48 If a foreigner lives with you and wants to observe the Passover to Yahweh, all his male relatives must be circumcised. Then he may come and observe it. He will become like the people who were born in the land. However, no uncircumcised person may eat any of the food.
And if he will sojourn with you a sojourner and he will observe a passover to Yahweh he will be circumcised of him every male and then he will draw near to observe it and he will be like [the] native-born of the land and any uncircumcised [man] not he will eat in it.
49 This same law will apply to both the native born and to the foreigner who lives among you.”
Law one it will be[long] to the native-born and to the sojourner who sojourns in midst of you.
50 So all the Israelites did exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron.
And they did all [the] people of Israel just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and Aaron so they did.
51 It came about that very day that Yahweh brought Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armed groups.
And it was on [the] substance of the day this he brought out Yahweh [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt on hosts their.
