Exodus 12:3-13 Speak ye unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month, then let them take to them, each man a lamb for his ancestral household, a lamb for a household.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Speak ye unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month, then let them take to them, each man a lamb for his ancestral household, a lamb for a household. ⁴ But, if the household be too small for a lamb, then shall he and his neighbour that is near unto his house take [one], according to the number of souls,––each man according to his eating, shall ye number for the lamb. ⁵ A lamb without defect, a male a year old, shall yours be,––from the sheep, or from the goats, shall ye take it. ⁶ So shall it be yours, to keep, until the fourteenth day of this month,––then shall all the convocation of the assembly of Israel slay it, between the two evenings. ⁷ And they shall take of the blood, and put upon the two door–posts, and upon the upper–beam,––upon the houses wherein they are to eat it. ⁸ Then shall they eat the flesh, in the same night,––roast with fire, and with unleavened cakes, with bitter herbs, shall they eat it. ⁹ Do not eat of it underdone, nor cooked by boiling in water,––but roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inward parts. ¹⁰ And ye shall let nothing thereof remain until morning,––but, that which is left remaining until morning, in the fire, shall ye consume. ¹¹ And, thus, shall ye eat it,––your loins, girded, your sandals, on your feet, and, your staff, in your hand,––so shall ye eat it, in haste, it is Yahweh’s, passing over. ¹² I will pass along, therefore, throughout the land of Egypt, this night, and will smite every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from man even to beast,––and, against all the gods of Egypt, will I execute judgments––I, Yahweh. ¹³ Then shall the blood serve you for a sign, on the houses wherein ye are, then will I behold the blood, and will pass over you,––and there shall be among you no plague to destroy, when I smite the land of Egypt.
