Exodus 12:29-42

CLV(i) 29 It came to be at midnight that Yahweh, He smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, sitting on his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive who was in the house of the cistern, and every firstborn of beast. 30 When Pharaoh rose by night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians, then there came to be a great cry in all the land of Egypt, for there was no house where there was no one dead. 31 Hence Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron by night and said: Rise! Go forth from the midst of my people, you indeed and the sons of Israel! Go, serve Yahweh as you spoke. 32 Moreover, your flocks, even your herds, take just as you have spoken, and go! However you will bless me. 33 Also the Egyptians were steadfast over the people to hasten to dismiss them from the land, for they said: All of us are dying. 34 And the people carried their dough ere it was leavened, their kneading-troughs bundled in their garments on their backs. 35 Then the sons of Israel did according to the word of Moses and requested from the Egyptians articles of silver and articles of gold, and garments. 36 And Yahweh, He gave the people favor in the eyes of the Egyptians, when they requested them; thus they despoiled the Egyptians. 37 The sons of Israel journeyed from Rameses toward Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, those of mastery, besides the little ones. 38 Moreover a mixed multitude ascended with them, and flocks, herds and cattle, exceedingly heavy. 39 They baked the dough which they brought forth from Egypt, unleavened ember cakes, for it was not leavened, for they were driven out of Egypt and they could not dally, and, moreover, they did not make provision for themselves. 40 Now the dwelling of the sons of Israel and their fathers who dwelt in the land of Canaan and in the land of Egypt was four hundred thirty years. 41 And it came to be at the end of four hundred thirty years--and it came to be on this very day--that all the host of Yahweh went forth from the land of Egypt. 42 It is a night of observances for Yahweh to bring them forth from the land of Egypt. This same night is to Yahweh, observances for all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.
