30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians. The Tenth Plague: Death of the FirstbornĢ9 ( AL)At midnight the ( AM) Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, ( AN)from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of the livestock. 26 And ( AI)when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ 27 you shall say, ( AJ)‘It is the sacrifice of the Lord's Passover, for he passed over the houses of the people of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians but spared our houses.’” And the people ( AK)bowed their heads and worshiped.Ģ8 Then the people of Israel went and did so as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did. 25 And when you come to the land that the Lord will give you, ( AH)as he has promised, you shall keep this service. 24 You shall observe this rite as a statute for you and for your sons forever. 23 ( AE)For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on ( AF)the lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and ( AG)will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses to strike you. ( AD)None of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. 22 Take a bunch of ( AA)hyssop and ( AB)dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and touch ( AC)the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. 20 You shall eat nothing leavened in all your dwelling places you shall eat unleavened bread.”Ģ1 Then Moses called all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs for yourselves ( Z)according to your clans, and kill the Passover lamb. If anyone eats what is leavened, ( X)that person will be cut off from the congregation of Israel, ( Y)whether he is a sojourner or a native of the land. 19 ( W)For seven days no leaven is to be found in your houses. 18 ( V)In the first month, from the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. Therefore you shall observe this day, throughout your generations, as a statute forever. 17 And you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for ( T)on this very day I brought your ( U)hosts out of the land of Egypt. But what everyone needs to eat, that alone may be prepared by you. 16 On the first day you shall hold a ( S)holy assembly, and on the seventh day a holy assembly. On the first day you shall remove leaven out of your houses, for if anyone eats what is leavened, from the first day until the seventh day, ( R)that person shall be cut off from Israel. 15 ( Q)Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.ġ4 “This day shall be ( O)for you a memorial day, and you shall keep it as a feast to the Lord throughout your generations, as a ( P)statute forever, you shall keep it as a feast.

13 ( N)The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. 12 For ( K)I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast and on ( L)all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: ( M)I am the Lord. 11 In this manner you shall eat it: with ( I)your belt fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. 10 And ( H)you shall let none of it remain until the morning anything that remains until the morning you shall burn. 9 Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but ( G)roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts. 8 They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire with ( F)unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. ħ “Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the ( E)two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats, 6 and you shall keep it until the ( D)fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight. 5 Your lamb shall be ( C)without blemish, a male a year old. 4 And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb. 3 Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb ( B)according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household. It shall be the first month of the year for you. 12 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, 2 ( A)“This month shall be for you the beginning of months.
