1 THEN the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, 2 This month shall be to you the beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you. 3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, On the tenth day of this month they shall take to themselves every man a lamb for his own household, and a lamb for his father's household; 4 And if the household is too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the persons; every man according to the portion of his eating shall make your count for the lamb. 5 The lamb shall be without blemish. a male of the first year; you shall take it from the lambs or from the kids: 6 And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at sunset 7 And they shall take some of the blood thereof and sprinkle it on the two door posts and on the lintel and on the houses wherein they shall eat it.
