1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses and Aaron in the londe of Egipte saynge: The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt,
2 This moneth shall be youre chefe moneth: eue the first moneth of the yere shal it be vnto you “This month shall be for you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year for you. “This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year.
3 Speake ye unto all the felowshipe of Israel saynge: that they take the .x. daye of this moneth to euery housholde, a shepe. Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household. Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb for his family, one for each household.
4 Yf the housholde be to few for a shepe, then lett him and his neghbour that is nexte vnto his house, take acordinge to the nombre of soulles, and counte vnto a shepe acordinge to euery mans eatinge. And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons; according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb. If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number of people there are. You are to determine the amount of lamb needed in accordance with what each person will eat.
5 A shepe with out spott and a male of one yere olde shall it be, and from amonge the lambes ad the gootes shall ye take it. Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats, The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats.
6 And ye shall kepe him in warde, vntyll the xiiij. daye of the same moneth. And euery ma of the multitude of Israel shall kyll him aboute eue. and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight. Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the members of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight.
7 And they shall take of the bloud ad strike it on the .ij. syde postes ad on the vpper dor post of the houses, wheri they eate hi. “Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs.
8 And thei shall eate the flesh the same nyght, rost with fyre, ad with vnleueded bread, ad with sowre herbes they shall eate it. They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. That same night they are to eat the meat roasted over the fire, along with bitter herbs, and bread made without yeast.
9 Se that ye eate not therof sode in water, but rost with fyre: both head fete ad purtenance together. Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts. Do not eat the meat raw or boiled in water, but roast it over a fire—with the head, legs and internal organs.
10 And se that ye let nothinge of it remayne vnto the mornynge: yf oughte remayne burne it with fyre. And you shall let none of it remain until the morning; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn. Do not leave any of it till morning; if some is left till morning, you must burn it.
11 Off this maner shall ye eate it: with youre loines girded, ad shoes on youre fete, ad youre staves in youre handes. And ye shall eate it in haste, for it is the Lordes passeouer, In this manner you shall eat it: with your belt fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the LORD’s Passover. This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD’s Passover.
12 for I will go aboute i the lade of Egipte this same nyghte, ad will smyte all the firstborne in the lande off Egipte: both of ma ad beest, ad apo al the goddes off Egipte will I the Lorde do execution. For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the LORD. “On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD.
13 And the bloude shall be vnto you a toke vppon the houses where in ye are, for whe I se the bloude, I will passe ouer you, ad the plage shall not be vppo you to destroye you, when I smyte the londe off Egipte. The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.
14 And this daye shall be vnto you a remebraunce, ad ye shall kepe it holie vnto the Lorde: euen thorow out youre generacions after you shall ye kepe it holie daye, that it be a custome for euer. “This day shall be for you a memorial day, and you shall keep it as a feast to the LORD; throughout your generations, as a statute forever, you shall keep it as a feast. “This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD—a lasting ordinance.
15 vij. dayes sha l ye eate vnleveded breed, so that euen the first daye ye shall put awaye leuen out off youre housses. For whosoeuer eateth leuended bread from the first daye vntyll the .vij. daye, that soule shall be plucked out fro Israel. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven out of your houses, for if anyone eats what is leavened, from the first day until the seventh day, that person shall be cut off from Israel. For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast. On the first day remove the yeast from your houses, for whoever eats anything with yeast in it from the first day through the seventh must be cut off from Israel.
16 The first daye shall be a holie feast vnto you, and the .vij. also. There shal be no maner off worke done in the, saue aboute that only which euery man must eate that only may ye do. On the first day you shall hold a holy assembly, and on the seventh day a holy assembly. No work shall be done on those days. But what everyone needs to eat, that alone may be prepared by you. On the first day hold a sacred assembly, and another one on the seventh day. Do no work at all on these days, except to prepare food for everyone to eat; that is all you may do.
17 And see that ye kepe you to vnleueded breed.For vppo that same daye I will brynge youre armyes out off the londe of Egipte, therfore ye shall obserue this daye and all youre childern after you, that yt be a custume for euer. And you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt. Therefore you shall observe this day, throughout your generations, as a statute forever. “Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread, because it was on this very day that I brought your divisions out of Egypt. Celebrate this day as a lasting ordinance for the generations to come.
18 The first moneth and the .xiiij. daye off the moneth at euen, ye shall eate swete brede vnto the .xxj. daye off the moneth at euen agayne. In the first month, from the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. In the first month you are to eat bread made without yeast, from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the twenty-first day.
19 Seuen dayes se that there be no leuended bred foude in youre housses. For whosoeuer eateth leuended bred, that soule shall be roted out fro the multitude of Israel: whether he be a straunger or borne in the londe. For seven days no leaven is to be found in your houses. If anyone eats what is leavened, that person will be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a sojourner or a native of the land. For seven days no yeast is to be found in your houses. And anyone, whether foreigner or native-born, who eats anything with yeast in it must be cut off from the community of Israel.
20 Therfore se that ye eate no leuended bred, but in all youre habitacions eate swete bred. You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwelling places you shall eat unleavened bread.” Eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever you live, you must eat unleavened bread.”
21 And Moses called for the elders off Israel and sayde vnto them: chouse out and take to euery housholde a shepe, ad kyll passeouer. Then Moses called all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs for yourselves according to your clans, and kill the Passover lamb. Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go at once and select the animals for your families and slaughter the Passover lamb.
22 And take a bunch of ysope, ad dyppe it in the bloud that is in the basyn, and stryke it vppon the vpperposte and on the .ij. syde postes, and se that none of you goo out at the doore of his house vntyll the mornynge. Take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and touch the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. None of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. Take a bunch of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin and put some of the blood on the top and on both sides of the doorframe. None of you shall go out of the door of your house until morning.
23 For the Lorde will goo aboute and smyte Egipte. And when he seyth the bloude vppon the vpper doorposte ad on the .ij. syde postes, he will passe ouer the doore and will not suffre the destroyer to come in to youre housse to plage you. For the LORD will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the LORD will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses to strike you. When the LORD goes through the land to strike down the Egyptians, he will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over that doorway, and he will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
24 Therfore se that thou obserue this thinge, that it be an ordinaunce to the, and thy sonnes for euer. You shall observe this rite as a statute for you and for your sons forever. “Obey these instructions as a lasting ordinance for you and your descendants.
25 And when ye be come in to the land which the Lorde will geue you acordinge as he hath promysed, se that ye kepe this seruice. And when you come to the land that the LORD will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this service. When you enter the land that the LORD will give you as he promised, observe this ceremony.
26 And when youre childern axe you what maner off seruice is this ye doo. And when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ And when your children ask you, ‘What does this ceremony mean to you?’
27 Ye shall saye, it is the sacrifiice of the Lordes passeouer which passed ouer the housses of the childern of Israel in Egipte, as he smote the Egiptians and saued oure housses. Than the people bowed them selues and worshipped. you shall say, ‘It is the sacrifice of the LORD’s Passover, for he passed over the houses of the people of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians but spared our houses.’” And the people bowed their heads and worshiped. then tell them, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice to the LORD, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes when he struck down the Egyptians.’” Then the people bowed down and worshiped.
28 And the childern of Israel went and dyd as the Lorde had commauded Moses and Aaron. Then the people of Israel went and did so; as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did. The Israelites did just what the LORD commanded Moses and Aaron.
29 And at mydnyghte the Lorde smote all the firstborne in the lode of Egipte: from the firstborne of Pharao that satt on his seat, vnto the firstborne of the captyue that was in presone, and all firstborne of the catell. At midnight the LORD struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of the livestock. At midnight the LORD struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock as well.
30 Than Pharao arose the same nyghte and al his servauntes ad all the Egiptians, and there was a great crieng thorowe out Egipte, for there was no housse where there was not one dead. 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 someone was not dead. Pharaoh and all his officials and all the Egyptians got up during the night, and there was loud wailing in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead.
31 And he called vnto Moses and Aaron by nyghte saynge: Ryse vp and gett you out from amonge my people: both ye and also the children of Israel, and goo and serue the Lorde as ye haue sayde. Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as you have said. During the night Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Up! Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship the LORD as you have requested.
32 And take youre shepe and your oxen with you as ye haue sayde, ad departe ad blesse me also. Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also!” Take your flocks and herds, as you have said, and go. And also bless me.”
33 And the Egiptians were ferce vppon the people and made haste to send the out of the lad: for they sayde: we be al deed me The Egyptians were urgent with the people to send them out of the land in haste. For they said, “We shall all be dead.” The Egyptians urged the people to hurry and leave the country. “For otherwise,” they said, “we will all die!”
34 And the people toke the dowe before it was sowered which they had in stoare, and bounde it in clothes ad put it vpo their shulders So the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading bowls being bound up in their cloaks on their shoulders. So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and carried it on their shoulders in kneading troughs wrapped in clothing.
35 And the childern of Israel dyd acordinge to the saynge of Moses: ad they borowed of the Egiptians: iewels of syluer, and iewels of gold, and rayment. The people of Israel had also done as Moses told them, for they had asked the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry and for clothing. The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold and for clothing.
36 And the Lorde gat the people fauoure in the syghte of the Egiptians: ad so they borowed and robbed the Egiptians. And the LORD had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians. The LORD had made the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered the Egyptians.
37 Thus toke the childern of Israel their yourney fro Raemses to suchoth .vj. hundred thousand me of foote, besyde childern. And the people of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Sukkoth. There were about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children.
38 And moch comon people went also with the, ad shepe ad oxen ad catell exceadinge moch. A mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds. Many other people went up with them, and also large droves of livestock, both flocks and herds.
39 And they baked swete cakes of the dowe which thy broughte out of Egipte, for it was not sowered: because they were thrust out of Egipte and coude not tarie, nether had they prepared them any other prouision of meate. And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough that they had brought out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared any provisions for themselves. With the dough the Israelites had brought from Egypt, they baked loaves of unleavened bread. The dough was without yeast because they had been driven out of Egypt and did not have time to prepare food for themselves.
40 And the tyme of the dwellinge of the childern of Israel which they dwelled in Egipte, was .iiij. hundred and .xxx. yere. The time that the people of Israel lived in Egypt was 430 years. Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt was 430 years.
41 And whe the iiij. hundred and .xxx. yeres mere expyred, eue the selfe same daye departed all the hostes of the Lorde out of the lande of Egipte. At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt. At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the LORD’s divisions left Egypt.
42 This is a nyghte to be obserued to the Lorde, because he broughte them out of the lande of Egipte. This is a nyghte of the Lorde, to be kepte of all the childern of Israel and of their generacions after them. It was a night of watching by the LORD, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the LORD by all the people of Israel throughout their generations. Because the LORD kept vigil that night to bring them out of Egypt, on this night all the Israelites are to keep vigil to honor the LORD for the generations to come.
43 And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses ad Aaron, this is the maner of Passeover: there shall no straunger eate there of, And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it, The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “These are the regulations for the Passover meal: “No foreigner may eat it.
44 but all the seruauntes that are bought for money shall ye circumcise, and then let them eat there of. but every slave that is bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him. Any slave you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised him,
45 A strauger and a hyerd seruaunte shall not eate thereof. No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it. but a temporary resident or a hired worker may not eat it.
46 In one housse shall it be eate. Ye shall carie none of the flesh out at the doores: moreouer, se that ye breke not a bone there of. It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and you shall not break any of its bones. “It must be eaten inside the house; take none of the meat outside the house. Do not break any of the bones.
47 All the multitude of the childern of Israel shall obserue it All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. The whole community of Israel must celebrate it.
48 Yf a straunger dwell amonge you ad wyll holde Passeover vnto the Lorde, let him circucise all that be males, ad the let him come and obserue it ad be take as one that is borne i the lode. No vncircucised persone shall eate there of. If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. “A foreigner residing among you who wants to celebrate the LORD’s Passover must have all the males in his household circumcised; then he may take part like one born in the land. No uncircumcised male may eat it.
49 One maner of lawe shalbe vnto the that are borne in the lode, ad vnto the straugers that dwell amoge you. There shall be one law for the native and for the stranger who sojourns among you.” The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner residing among you.”
50 And all the childern of Israel dyd as the Lorde comauded Moses ad Aaro. All the people of Israel did just as the LORD commanded Moses and Aaron. All the Israelites did just what the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
51 And eue the selfe same daye dyd the Lorde brynge the childern of Israel out of the londe of Egipte with their armies. And on that very day the LORD brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts. And on that very day the LORD brought the Israelites out of Egypt by their divisions.
