¹⁰ So the children of Israel put up their tents in Gilgal; and they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the lowlands of Jericho.

⁶ Keep it till the fourteenth day of the same month, when everyone who is of the children of Israel is to put it to death between sundown and dark.

¹ And the Lord said to Moses, in the waste land of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt,

² Let the children of Israel keep the Passover at its regular time.

³ In the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, you are to keep it at the regular time, and in the way ordered in the law.

⁴ And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel to keep the Passover.

⁵ So they kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the waste land of Sinai: as the Lord gave orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did.

³ And you, O son of man, by day, before their eyes, get ready the vessels of one who is taken away, and go away from your place to another place before their eyes: it may be that they will see, though they are an uncontrolled people.

⁶ And before their eyes, take your goods on your back and go out in the dark; go with your face covered: for I have made you a sign to the children of Israel.

⁷ And I did as I was ordered: I took out my vessels by day, like those of one who is taken away, and in the evening I made a hole through the wall with a tent-pin; and in the dark I went out, taking my things on my back before their eyes.

⁸ And in the morning the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

⁹ Son of man, has not Israel, the uncontrolled people, said to you, What are you doing?

¹⁰ You are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: This word has to do with the ruler in Jerusalem and all the children of Israel in it.

¹¹ Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so will it be done to them: they will go away as prisoners.

¹² And the ruler who is among them will take his goods on his back in the dark and go out: he will make a hole in the wall through which to go out: he will have his face covered so that he may not be seen.

¹³ And my net will be stretched out on him, and he will be taken in my cords: and I will take him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldaeans; but he will not see it, and there death will come to him.

¹⁴ And all his helpers round about him and all his armies I will send in flight to every wind; and I will let loose a sword after them.

¹⁵ And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send them in flight among the nations, driving them out through the countries.

¹⁶ But a small number of them I will keep from the sword, from the need of food, and from disease, so that they may make clear all their disgusting ways among the nations where they come; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
