² `Also, the sons of Israel prepare the passover in its appointed season;

¹ `Observe the month of Abib -- and thou hast made a passover to Jehovah thy God, for in the month of Abib hath Jehovah thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night;

² and thou hast sacrificed a passover to Jehovah thy God, of the flock, and of the herd, in the place which Jehovah doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle there.

⁵ in the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the evenings, `is' the passover to Jehovah;

⁷ cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened, for also our passover for us was sacrificed -- Christ,

⁸ so that we may keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with unleavened food of sincerity and truth.

⁷ And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,

¹² And the first day of the unleavened food, when they were killing the passover, his disciples say to him, `Where wilt thou, `that,' having gone, we may prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?'

¹⁹ And the sons of the captivity make the passover on the fourteenth of the first month,

¹ And Josiah maketh in Jerusalem a passover to Jehovah, and they slaughter the passover-offering on the fourteenth of the first month,

¹⁰ And the sons of Israel encamp in Gilgal, and make the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho;

¹⁶ `And in the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, `is' the passover to Jehovah;

¹ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, in the land of Egypt, saying,

² `This month `is' to you the chief of months -- it `is' the first to you of the months of the year;

³ speak ye unto all the company of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month -- they take to them each man a lamb for the house of the fathers, a lamb for a house.

⁴ `(And if the household be too few for a lamb, then hath he taken, he and his neighbour who is near unto his house, for the number of persons, each according to his eating ye do count for the lamb,)

⁵ a lamb, a perfect one, a male, a son of a year, let be to you; from the sheep or from the goats ye do take `it'.

⁶ `And it hath become a charge to you, until the fourteenth day of this month, and the whole assembly of the company of Israel have slaughtered it between the evenings;

⁷ and they have taken of the blood, and have put on the two side-posts, and on the lintel over the houses in which they eat it.

⁸ `And they have eaten the flesh in this night, roast with fire; with unleavened things and bitters they do eat it;

⁹ ye do not eat of it raw, or boiled at all in water, but roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inwards;

¹⁰ and ye do not leave of it till morning, and that which is remaining of it till morning with fire ye do burn.

¹¹ `And thus ye do eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and ye have eaten it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover,

¹² and I have passed over through the land of Egypt during this night, and have smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt, from man even unto beast, and on all the gods of Egypt I do judgments; I `am' Jehovah.

¹³ `And the blood hath become a sign for you on the houses where ye `are', and I have seen the blood, and have passed over you, and a plague is not on you for destruction in My smiting in the land of Egypt.

¹⁴ `And this day hath become to you a memorial, and ye have kept it a feast to Jehovah to your generations; -- a statute age-during; ye keep it a feast.

¹⁵ Seven days ye eat unleavened things; only -- in the first day ye cause leaven to cease out of your houses; for any one eating anything fermented from the first day till the seventh day, even that person hath been cut off from Israel.

¹⁶ `And in the first day `is' a holy convocation, and in the seventh day ye have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person -- it alone is done by you,

¹⁷ and ye have observed the unleavened things, for in this self-same day I have brought out your hosts from the land of Egypt, and ye have observed this day to your generations -- a statute age-during.

¹⁸ `In the first `month', in the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye do eat unleavened things until the one and twentieth day of the month, at evening;

¹⁹ seven days leaven is not found in your houses, for any `one' eating anything fermented -- that person hath been cut off from the company of Israel, among the sojourners or among the natives of the land;

²⁰ anything fermented ye do not eat, in all your dwellings ye do eat unleavened things.'
