3 Speak ye to all the assembly of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month and they shall take to them each a sheep, according to the house of the fathers; a sheep for a house. 4 And if the house shall be little from being for a sheep, and he taking, and his neighbor drawing nigh his house according to the number of souls; each according to the mouth of his eating shall ye reckon for the sheep. 5 A perfect sheep, a male, the son of a year, shall be to you from the he-lambs and from the goats ye shall take. 6 And it shall be to you for a preservation till the fourteenth day of this month; and they shall slaughter it, all the convocation of the assembly of Israel, between the two evenings. 7 And they took from the blood and gave upon the two door-posts, and upon the lintel within the houses which they shall eat it in them. 8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night roasted with fire and unleavened; upon bitter herbs shall they eat it.
