Exodus 12:33-51 ▼

33 And the Egyptians constrained the people, so that they cast them out of the land with haste, for they said, We all shall die.

34 And the people took their dough before their meal was leavened, bound up as it was in their garments, on their shoulders.

35 And the children of Israel did as Moses commanded them, and they asked of the Egyptians articles of silver and gold and apparel.

36 And the Lord gave his people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, and they lent to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.

37 And the children Israel departed from Ramesses to Socchoth, to the full number of six hundred thousand footmen, even men, besides the baggage.

38 And a great mixed company went up with them, and sheep and oxen and very much cattle.

39 And they baked the dough which they brought out of Egypt, unleavened cakes, for it had not been leavened; for the Egyptians cast them out, and they could not remain, neither did they prepare provision for themselves for the journey.

40 And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, was four hundred and thirty years.

41 And it came to pass after the four hundred and thirty years, all the forces of the Lord came forth out of the land of Egypt by night.

42 It is a watch kept to the Lord, so that he should bring them out of the land of Egypt; that very night is a watch kept to the Lord, so that it should be to all the children of Israel to their generations.

43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, This is the law of the passover: no stranger shall eat of it.

44 And every slave or servant bought with money - him thou shalt circumcise, and then shall he eat of it.

45 A sojourner or hireling shall not eat of it.

46 In one house shall it be eaten, and ye shall not carry of the flesh out from the house; and a bone of it ye shall not break.

47 All the congregation of the children of Israel shall keep it.

48 And if any proselyte shall come to you to keep the passover to the Lord, thou shalt circumcise every male of him, and then shall he approach to sacrifice it, and he shall be even as the original inhabitant of the land; no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

49 There shall be one law to the native, and to the proselyte coming among you.

50 And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron for them, so they did.

51 And it came to pass in that day that the Lord brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt with their forces.
