LEB(i)
2 "This month will be the beginning of months; it will be for you the first of the months of the year.
3 Speak to all the community of Israel, saying, 'On the tenth of this month, they will each take for themselves ⌊a lamb for the family⌋,* a lamb for the household.
4 And if the household is too small for a lamb, he and the neighbor nearest to his house will take one according to the number of persons;* you will count out portions of the lamb ⌊according to how much each one can eat⌋.*
5 The lamb for you must be a male, without defect, in its first year; you will take it from the sheep or from the goats.
6 "⌊You will keep it⌋* until the fourteenth day of this month, and all the assembly of the community of Israel will slaughter it ⌊at twilight⌋.*
7 And they will take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel on the houses in which they eat it.
8 And they will eat the meat on this night; they will eat it fire-roasted and with unleavened bread on ⌊bitter herbs⌋.*
9 You must not eat any of it raw or boiled, boiled in the water, but rather roasted with fire, its head with its legs and with its inner parts.
10 And you must not leave any of it until morning; anything left from it until morning you must burn in the fire.
11 And this is how you will eat it—with your waists fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and you will eat it in haste. It is Yahweh's Passover.
12 "And I will go through the land of Egypt during this night, and I will strike all of the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from human to animal, and I will do punishments among all of the gods of Egypt. I am Yahweh.
13 And the blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and I will see the blood, and I will pass over you, and there will not be a destructive plague among you when I strike the land of Egypt.
14 "And this day will become a memorial for you, and you will celebrate it as a religious feast for Yahweh throughout your generations; you will celebrate it as a lasting statute.
