Ang Pista ng Paskwa

12 Sinabi(A) ni Yahweh kina Moises at Aaron sa Egipto, “Mula ngayon, ang buwang ito ang siyang magiging unang buwan ng taon para sa inyo. At sabihin ninyo sa buong sambayanan ng Israel na sa ikasampung araw ng buwang ito, bawat pamilya ay pipili ng isang tupa o batang kambing para sa kanila. Kung maliit ang pamilya at hindi makakaubos ng isang buong tupa, magsasalo sila ng malapit na kapitbahay, na hindi rin makakaubos ng isang buo. Ang dami ng magsasalu-salo sa isang tupa ay ibabatay sa dami ng makakain ng bawat isa. Kailangang lalaki ang tupa o ang kambing, isang taóng gulang, walang kapintasan. Aalagaan ito hanggang sa ikalabing apat ng buwan at sa kinagabihan, sabay-sabay na papatayin ng buong bayan ang kani-kanilang inalagaang hayop. Kukuha sila ng dugo nito at ipapahid sa magkabilang poste at itaas ng pintuan ng bahay na kakainan ng kinatay na hayop. Sa gabi ring iyon, lilitsunin ito at kakaining kasama ng tinapay na walang pampaalsa at ng mapapait na gulay. Huwag ninyong kakainin nang hilaw o nilaga ang hayop; kundi lilitsunin ninyo ito nang buo, kasama ang ulo, ang mga pata at ang laman-loob. 10 Huwag kayong magtitira para sa kinabukasan. Kung may matira, kailangang sunugin kinaumagahan. 11 Kapag kakainin na ninyo ito, dapat nakabihis na kayo, nakasandalyas at may hawak na tungkod. Magmadali kayo sa pagkain nito. Ito ang Paskwa ni Yahweh.

12 “Sa gabing iyon, lilibutin ko ang buong Egipto at papatayin ang lahat ng panganay na lalaki, maging tao man o hayop. At paparusahan ko ang lahat ng diyus-diyosan sa Egipto. Ako si Yahweh. 13 Dugo ang magsisilbing palatandaan ng mga bahay na inyong tinitirhan. Lahat ng bahay na makita kong may pahid ng dugo ay lalampasan ko, at walang pinsalang mangyayari sa inyo habang pinaparusahan ko ang buong Egipto. 14 Ang(B) araw na ito'y ipagdiriwang ninyo sa lahat ng inyong salinlahi bilang pista ni Yahweh. Sa pamamagitan nito'y maaalala ninyo ang aking ginawa.

Ang Pista ng Tinapay na Walang Pampaalsa

15 “Pitong araw kayong kakain ng tinapay na walang pampaalsa. Sa unang araw pa lamang, aalisin ninyo sa inyong tahanan ang lahat ng pampaalsa, sapagkat ititiwalag ang sinumang kumain ng tinapay na may pampaalsa sa loob ng pitong araw na iyon. 16 Sa una at ikapitong araw ay magtitipun-tipon kayo upang sumamba. Sa loob ng dalawang araw na ito ay walang gagawa ng anuman liban sa paghahanda ng pagkain. 17 Ang pagdiriwang ng Pista ng Tinapay na Walang Pampaalsa ay gaganapin ninyo taun-taon sapagkat sa araw na ito, inilabas ko sa Egipto ang inyong mga lipi. Ito'y gagawin ninyo sa habang panahon ng inyong mga salinlahi. 18 Tinapay na walang pampaalsa ang inyong kakainin simula sa gabi ng ikalabing apat na araw hanggang sa gabi ng ikadalawampu't isa ng unang buwan ng taon. 19 Sa loob ng pitong araw, hindi dapat magkaroon ng pampaalsa sa inyong mga bahay. Ititiwalag sa sambayanan ng Israel ang sinumang kumain ng tinapay na may pampaalsa, maging siya'y dayuhan o purong Israelita. 20 Saanman kayo naroroon, huwag kayong kakain ng tinapay na may pampaalsa tuwing ganitong panahon. Ang kakainin ninyo'y tinapay na walang pampaalsa.”

Ang Unang Paskwa

21 Tinawag nga ni Moises ang mga pinuno ng Israel at sinabi sa kanila, “Pumili kayo ng isang tupa para sa inyong sari-sariling pamilya at katayin ninyo ito para sa Paskwa. 22 Kumuha kayo ng sanga ng halamang hisopo, basain ito ng dugo ng tupa at ipahid sa magkabilang poste at itaas ng inyong pintuan. At isa man sa inyo ay huwag lalabas ng bahay hanggang kinabukasan. 23 Sa(C) gabing iyon, lilibutin ni Yahweh ang buong Egipto at papatayin ang mga Egipcio. Lahat ng bahay na makita niyang may pahid na dugo sa magkabilang poste at itaas ng pintuan ay hindi niya hahayaang pasukin ng Anghel ng Kamatayan. 24 Sundin ninyo ang mga tuntuning ito at palagiang ganapin, pati ng inyong mga anak. 25 Patuloy ninyong ganapin ito maging sa lupaing ipinangako sa inyo ni Yahweh. 26 Kapag itinanong ng inyong mga anak kung bakit ninyo ginagawa ito, 27 sabihin ninyong ito'y pag-aalaala sa Paskwa ni Yahweh nang lampasan niya ang bahay ng mga Israelita at patayin niya ang mga Egipcio.”

Nang masabi ito ni Moises, yumuko ang buong bayan at sumamba sa Diyos. 28 Pagkatapos, umuwi na sila at isinagawa ang iniutos ni Yahweh sa pamamagitan nina Moises at Aaron.

Ang Huling Salot: Namatay ang Lahat ng Panganay

29 Nang(D) hating-gabing iyon, pinatay ni Yahweh ang lahat ng panganay na lalaki sa buong Egipto, mula sa panganay ng Faraon at tagapagmana ng trono, hanggang sa anak ng bilanggong nasa piitan; namatay din ang panganay ng mga hayop. 30 Nang gabing iyon, nagising ang Faraon, ang kanyang mga tauhan at lahat ng Egipcio, at nagkaroon ng napakalakas na iyakan sa buong Egipto, sapagkat lahat ng bahay ay namatayan ng panganay na lalaki. 31 Nang gabi ring iyo'y ipinatawag ng Faraon sina Moises at Aaron at kanyang sinabi, “Sige, umalis na kayo sa Egipto! Lumakad na kayo at sumamba kay Yahweh tulad ng hinihiling ninyo. 32 Dalhin na ninyo pati inyong mga tupa, kambing at baka. Umalis na kayo at ipanalangin din ninyo ako.”

33 Inapura sila ng mga Egipcio at sinabi sa kanila, “Mamamatay kaming lahat kapag hindi pa kayo umalis dito.” 34 Kaya, binalot nila ng damit ang minamasang harina na di na nalagyan ng pampaalsa, ni alisin sa sisidlan; pinasan nila iyon at umalis. 35 Noo'y(E) nahingi na nila sa mga Egipcio ang mga alahas na pilak at ginto at mga damit, tulad ng iniutos sa kanila ni Moises. 36 Ibinigay ng mga Egipcio ang anumang hingin ng mga Israelita sapagkat niloob na ni Yahweh na sila'y igalang ng mga ito. Sa ganitong paraan, nasamsam nila ang kayamanan ng mga Egipcio.

Ang Pag-alis ng mga Israelita sa Egipto

37 Mula sa Rameses, naglakbay ang mga Israelita patungong Sucot; humigit-kumulang sa animnaraang libo ang mga lalaki bukod pa sa mga babae at mga bata. 38 Maraming hindi Israelita ang sumama sa kanila; marami rin silang dalang tupa, kambing at baka. 39 At niluto nila ang dala nilang gagawing tinapay na wala pang pampaalsa. Hindi nila ito nakuhang lagyan pa ng pampaalsa sapagkat apurahan ang kanilang pag-alis sa Egipto; wala na silang panahong magluto ng pagkain.

40 Nanirahan(F) ang mga Israelita sa Egipto nang 430 taon. 41 Huling araw ng ika-430 taon nang umalis sa Egipto ang lahat ng lipi ng bayan ni Yahweh. 42 Nang gabing iyon sila iniligtas ni Yahweh at inilabas sa Egipto, kaya ang gabing iyon ay itinalaga nila sa pag-aalaala sa pagliligtas sa kanila ni Yahweh. Ang pag-aalaalang iyon ay patuloy nilang gagawin habang panahon.

Ang mga Tuntunin tungkol sa Paskwa

43 Sinabi ni Yahweh kina Moises at Aaron, “Ito ang mga tuntunin tungkol sa Paskwa: Bawal kumain nito ang mga dayuhan; 44 ngunit ang alilang binili ninyo ay maaaring pakainin nito kung siya ay tuli na. 45 Hindi rin maaaring kumain nito ang mga dayuhang nakikipanuluyan lamang sa inyo, o kaya'y ang mga upahang manggagawa. 46 Ang(G) korderong pampaskwa ay dapat kainin sa loob ng bahay na pinaglutuan nito. Huwag ilalabas kahit kapiraso nito at huwag ding babaliin kahit isang buto. 47 Ang Pista ng Paskwa ay ipagdiriwang ng buong Israel. 48 Lahat ng dayuhang nakikipamayan sa inyo na gustong makipagdiwang sa Paskwa ay kailangang tuliin muna pati ang kanyang mga anak na lalaki bago pasalihin sa pagdiriwang. Sa gayo'y ituturing silang katutubong Israelita. Huwag hahayaang kumain nito ang sinumang hindi tuli. 49 Lahat ay saklaw ng mga tuntuning ito, maging siya'y katutubong Israelita o dayuhan.” 50 Sinunod ng lahat ng mga Israelita ang iniutos ni Yahweh kina Moises at Aaron. 51 Nang araw na iyon, inilabas ni Yahweh sa Egipto ang mga Israelita na nakahanay ayon sa kani-kanilang lipi.

The Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread(A)

12 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, “This month is to be for you the first month,(B) the first month of your year. Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb[a](C) for his family, one for each household.(D) If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number of people there are. You are to determine the amount of lamb needed in accordance with what each person will eat. The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect,(E) and you may take them from the sheep or the goats. Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month,(F) when all the members of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight.(G) Then they are to take some of the blood(H) and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs. That same night(I) they are to eat the meat roasted(J) over the fire, along with bitter herbs,(K) and bread made without yeast.(L) Do not eat the meat raw or boiled in water, but roast it over a fire—with the head, legs and internal organs.(M) 10 Do not leave any of it till morning;(N) if some is left till morning, you must burn it. 11 This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste;(O) it is the Lord’s Passover.(P)

12 “On that same night I will pass through(Q) Egypt and strike down(R) every firstborn(S) of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods(T) of Egypt. I am the Lord.(U) 13 The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over(V) you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.(W)

14 “This is a day you are to commemorate;(X) for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord—a lasting ordinance.(Y) 15 For seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast.(Z) On the first day remove the yeast from your houses, for whoever eats anything with yeast in it from the first day through the seventh must be cut off(AA) from Israel. 16 On the first day hold a sacred assembly, and another one on the seventh day. Do no work(AB) at all on these days, except to prepare food for everyone to eat; that is all you may do.

17 “Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread,(AC) because it was on this very day that I brought your divisions out of Egypt.(AD) Celebrate this day as a lasting ordinance for the generations to come.(AE) 18 In the first month(AF) you are to eat bread made without yeast, from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the twenty-first day. 19 For seven days no yeast is to be found in your houses. And anyone, whether foreigner(AG) or native-born, who eats anything with yeast in it must be cut off(AH) from the community of Israel. 20 Eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever you live,(AI) you must eat unleavened bread.”(AJ)

21 Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go at once and select the animals for your families and slaughter the Passover(AK) lamb. 22 Take a bunch of hyssop,(AL) dip it into the blood in the basin and put some of the blood(AM) on the top and on both sides of the doorframe. None of you shall go out of the door of your house until morning. 23 When the Lord goes through the land to strike(AN) down the Egyptians, he will see the blood(AO) on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over(AP) that doorway, and he will not permit the destroyer(AQ) to enter your houses and strike you down.

24 “Obey these instructions as a lasting ordinance(AR) for you and your descendants. 25 When you enter the land(AS) that the Lord will give you as he promised, observe this ceremony. 26 And when your children(AT) ask you, ‘What does this ceremony mean to you?’ 27 then tell them, ‘It is the Passover(AU) sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes when he struck down the Egyptians.’”(AV) Then the people bowed down and worshiped.(AW) 28 The Israelites did just what the Lord commanded(AX) Moses and Aaron.

29 At midnight(AY) the Lord(AZ) struck down all the firstborn(BA) in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock(BB) as well. 30 Pharaoh and all his officials and all the Egyptians got up during the night, and there was loud wailing(BC) in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead.

The Exodus

31 During the night Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Up! Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship(BD) the Lord as you have requested. 32 Take your flocks and herds,(BE) as you have said, and go. And also bless(BF) me.”

33 The Egyptians urged the people to hurry(BG) and leave(BH) the country. “For otherwise,” they said, “we will all die!”(BI) 34 So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and carried it on their shoulders in kneading troughs(BJ) wrapped in clothing. 35 The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold(BK) and for clothing.(BL) 36 The Lord had made the Egyptians favorably disposed(BM) toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered(BN) the Egyptians.

37 The Israelites journeyed from Rameses(BO) to Sukkoth.(BP) There were about six hundred thousand men(BQ) on foot, besides women and children. 38 Many other people(BR) went up with them, and also large droves of livestock, both flocks and herds. 39 With the dough the Israelites had brought from Egypt, they baked loaves of unleavened bread. The dough was without yeast because they had been driven out(BS) of Egypt and did not have time to prepare food for themselves.

40 Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt[b] was 430 years.(BT) 41 At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the Lord’s divisions(BU) left Egypt.(BV) 42 Because the Lord kept vigil that night to bring them out of Egypt, on this night all the Israelites are to keep vigil to honor the Lord for the generations to come.(BW)

Passover Restrictions

43 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “These are the regulations for the Passover meal:(BX)

“No foreigner(BY) may eat it. 44 Any slave you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised(BZ) him, 45 but a temporary resident or a hired worker(CA) may not eat it.

46 “It must be eaten inside the house; take none of the meat outside the house. Do not break any of the bones.(CB) 47 The whole community of Israel must celebrate it.

48 “A foreigner residing among you who wants to celebrate the Lord’s Passover must have all the males in his household circumcised; then he may take part like one born in the land.(CC) No uncircumcised(CD) male may eat it. 49 The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner(CE) residing among you.”

50 All the Israelites did just what the Lord had commanded(CF) Moses and Aaron. 51 And on that very day the Lord brought the Israelites out of Egypt(CG) by their divisions.(CH)

12 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying,

This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.

Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:

And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb.

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:

And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.

And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.

Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.

10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.

11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the Lord's passover.

12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord.

13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.

15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

16 And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you.

17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.

18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even.

19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.

20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.

21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.

22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

23 For the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.

25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the Lord will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.

26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service?

27 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the Lord's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.

28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.

29 And it came to pass, that at midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as ye have said.

32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me also.

33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.

34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.

35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:

36 And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.

37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children.

38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle.

39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual.

40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.

41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be much observed unto the Lord for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the Lord to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.

43 And the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof:

44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.

45 A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof.

46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.

47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.

49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you.

50 Thus did all the children of Israel; as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.

51 And it came to pass the selfsame day, that the Lord did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
