The Passover Lamb

12 Now Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron in the land of [a]Egypt, 2 “(A)This month shall be the beginning of months for you; it is to be the first month of the year to you. 3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, ‘On the tenth of this month they are each one to take a [b]lamb for themselves, according to their fathers’ households, a [c]lamb for [d]each household. 4 Now if the household is too small for a [e]lamb, then he and his neighbor nearest to his house are to take one according to the [f]number of persons in them; according to [g]what each man should eat, you are to [h]apportion the lamb. 5 Your [i]lamb shall be (B)a male, without blemish, a year old; you may take it from the sheep or from the goats. 6 [j]And you shall keep it until the (C)fourteenth day of the same month, then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall slaughter it [k](D)at twilight. 7 (E)Moreover, they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel [l]of the houses in which they eat it. 8 And they shall eat the flesh (F)that night, (G)roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with (H)unleavened bread [m](I)and bitter herbs. 9 Do not eat any of it raw or boiled at all with water, but rather (J)roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with (K)its entrails. 10 (L)And you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you shall burn with fire. 11 Now you shall eat it in this manner: with your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste—it is (M)the Passover of Yahweh. 12 And (N)I will go through the land of Egypt on that night and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and (O)against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—(P)I am Yahweh. 13 (Q)And the blood shall 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 shall be no plague among you [n]to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread

14 ‘Now (R)this day will be (S)a memorial to you, and you shall celebrate it as a feast to Yahweh; throughout your generations you are to celebrate it as [o](T)a perpetual statute. 15 (U)Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, but on the first day you shall [p]remove leaven from your houses; for whoever eats anything leavened from the first day until the seventh day, (V)that [q]person shall be cut off from Israel. 16 (W)Now on the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you; no work at all shall be done on them, except what must be eaten [r]by every person, that alone may be done by you. 17 You shall also keep (X)the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this (Y)very day I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; therefore you shall keep this day throughout your generations as [s](Z)a perpetual statute. 18 (AA)In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. 19 (AB)Seven days there shall be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eats what is leavened, that [t](AC)person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a sojourner or a native of the land. 20 You shall not eat anything leavened; in all your places of habitation you shall eat unleavened bread.’”

21 Then (AD)Moses called for all the elders of Israel and said to them, “[u]Bring out and (AE)take for yourselves [v]lambs according to your families and slaughter (AF)the Passover lamb. 22 (AG)And you shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and [w]touch some of the blood that is in the basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you shall go outside the doorway of his house until morning. 23 And (AH)Yahweh will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and He will see the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, and Yahweh will pass over the doorway and will (AI)not allow the (AJ)destroyer to come into your houses to smite you. 24 And (AK)you shall keep this event as a statute for you and your children forever. 25 And it will be, when you enter the land which Yahweh will give you, as He has [x]promised, you shall keep this new [y]slavery. 26 (AL)And it will be when your children say to you, ‘[z]What is the meaning of this new slavery to you?’ 27 that you shall say, ‘It is a Passover sacrifice to (AM)Yahweh who passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt when He smote the Egyptians, but delivered our homes.’” (AN)And the people bowed low and worshiped.

28 Then the sons of Israel went and did so; just as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

Death of the Firstborn of Egypt

29 Now it happened at (AO)midnight that (AP)Yahweh struck all (AQ)the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the [aa]dungeon, and all the firstborn of (AR)cattle. 30 Then Pharaoh arose in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians, and there was (AS)a great cry in Egypt, for there was no home where there was not someone dead. 31 Then (AT)he called for Moses and Aaron at night and said, “Rise up, (AU)get out from among my people, both you and the sons of Israel; and go, [ab]serve Yahweh, as you have spoken. 32 Take (AV)both your flocks and your herds, as you have spoken, and go, and bless me also.”

Israel Goes Out from Egypt

33 (AW)And the Egyptians strongly pressed the people to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, “We will all be dead.” 34 So the people took up (AX)their dough before it was leavened, with their kneading bowls bound up in the clothes on their shoulders.

35 (AY)Now the sons of Israel had done according to the word of Moses—they had asked from the Egyptians for articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing; 36 and Yahweh had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they (AZ)plundered the Egyptians.

37 And the (BA)sons of Israel journeyed from (BB)Rameses to Succoth, about (BC)six hundred thousand men on foot, aside from the little ones. 38 A [ac](BD)foreign multitude also went up with them, [ad]along with flocks and herds, a (BE)very [ae]large number of livestock. 39 And they baked the dough which they had brought out of Egypt into cakes of unleavened bread. For it had not become leavened, since they were (BF)driven out of Egypt and could not delay, nor had they [af]prepared any provisions for themselves.

40 Now the time [ag]that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was (BG)430 years. 41 And it happened at the end of 430 years, [ah]to (BH)the very day, that (BI)all the hosts of Yahweh went out from the land of Egypt. 42 (BJ)It is a night to be kept for Yahweh for having brought them out from the land of Egypt; this night is for Yahweh, to be kept [ai]by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.

The Statute of the Passover

43 And Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of (BK)the Passover: no [aj](BL)foreigner shall eat of it; 44 but every man’s (BM)slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. 45 (BN)A foreign resident or a hired person shall not eat of it. 46 It shall be eaten in a single house; you shall not bring forth any of the flesh outside of the house, (BO)and you shall not break any bone of it. 47 (BP)All the congregation of Israel shall [ak]celebrate this. 48 But (BQ)if a sojourner sojourns with you and [al]celebrates the Passover to Yahweh, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to [am]celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 49 [an](BR)The same law shall [ao]apply to the native as to the sojourner who sojourns among you.”

50 So all the sons of Israel did; as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, thus they did. 51 And on that same day (BS)Yahweh brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt [ap](BT)by their hosts.

出埃及 12
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)

定逾越节之礼

12 耶和华在埃及地晓谕摩西、亚伦说： 2 “你们要以本月为正月，为一年之首。 3 你们吩咐以色列全会众说：本月初十日，各人要按着父家取羊羔，一家一只。 4 若是一家的人太少，吃不了一只羊羔，本人就要和他隔壁的邻舍共取一只。你们预备羊羔，要按着人数和饭量计算。 5 要无残疾、一岁的公羊羔，你们或从绵羊里取，或从山羊里取，都可以。 6 要留到本月十四日，在黄昏的时候，以色列全会众把羊羔宰了。 7 各家要取点血，涂在吃羊羔的房屋左右的门框上和门楣上。 8 当夜要吃羊羔的肉，用火烤了，与无酵饼和苦菜同吃。 9 不可吃生的，断不可吃水煮的，要带着头、腿、五脏，用火烤了吃。 10 不可剩下一点留到早晨，若留到早晨，要用火烧了。 11 你们吃羊羔当腰间束带，脚上穿鞋，手中拿杖，赶紧地吃。这是耶和华的逾越节。 12 因为那夜我要巡行埃及地，把埃及地一切头生的，无论是人是牲畜，都击杀了，又要败坏埃及一切的神。我是耶和华。 13 这血要在你们所住的房屋上做记号，我一见这血，就越过你们去，我击杀埃及地头生的时候，灾殃必不临到你们身上灭你们。 14 你们要记念这日，守为耶和华的节，作为你们世世代代永远的定例。

15 “你们要吃无酵饼七日。头一日要把酵从你们各家中除去，因为从头一日起，到第七日为止，凡吃有酵之饼的，必从以色列中剪除。 16 头一日你们当有圣会，第七日也当有圣会。这两日之内，除了预备各人所要吃的以外，无论何工都不可做。 17 你们要守无酵节，因为我正当这日把你们的军队从埃及地领出来。所以你们要守这日，作为世世代代永远的定例。 18 从正月十四日晚上，直到二十一日晚上，你们要吃无酵饼。 19 在你们各家中，七日之内不可有酵，因为凡吃有酵之物的，无论是寄居的是本地的，必从以色列的会中剪除。 20 有酵的物，你们都不可吃，在你们一切住处要吃无酵饼。”

21 于是，摩西召了以色列的众长老来，对他们说：“你们要按着家口取出羊羔，把这逾越节的羊羔宰了。 22 拿一把牛膝草，蘸盆里的血，打在门楣上和左右的门框上。你们谁也不可出自己的房门，直到早晨。 23 因为耶和华要巡行击杀埃及人，他看见血在门楣上和左右的门框上，就必越过那门，不容灭命的进你们的房屋，击杀你们。 24 这例你们要守着，作为你们和你们子孙永远的定例。 25 日后，你们到了耶和华按着所应许赐给你们的那地，就要守这礼。 26 你们的儿女问你们说：‘行这礼是什么意思？’ 27 你们就说：‘这是献给耶和华逾越节的祭，当以色列人在埃及的时候，他击杀埃及人，越过以色列人的房屋，救了我们各家。’”于是百姓低头下拜。 28 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西、亚伦，以色列人就怎样行。

耶和华击杀埃及长子

29 到了半夜，耶和华把埃及地所有的长子，就是从坐宝座的法老，直到被掳囚在监里之人的长子，以及一切头生的牲畜，尽都杀了。 30 法老和一切臣仆，并埃及众人，夜间都起来了。在埃及有大哀号，无一家不死一个人的。 31 夜间，法老召了摩西、亚伦来，说：“起来！连你们带以色列人从我民中出去，依你们所说的去侍奉耶和华吧！ 32 也依你们所说的，连羊群牛群带着走吧！并要为我祝福。” 33 埃及人催促百姓，打发他们快快出离那地，因为埃及人说：“我们都要死了。” 34 百姓就拿着没有酵的生面，把抟面盆包在衣服中，扛在肩头上。 35 以色列人照着摩西的话行，向埃及人要金器银器和衣裳。 36 耶和华叫百姓在埃及人眼前蒙恩，以致埃及人给他们所要的。他们就把埃及人的财物夺去了。

以色列人出埃及

37 以色列人从兰塞起行，往疏割去，除了妇人孩子，步行的男人约有六十万。 38 又有许多闲杂人，并有羊群牛群，和他们一同上去。 39 他们用埃及带出来的生面烤成无酵饼，这生面原没有发起，因为他们被催逼离开埃及，不能耽延，也没有为自己预备什么食物。 40 以色列人住在埃及共有四百三十年。 41 正满了四百三十年的那一天，耶和华的军队都从埃及地出来了。 42 这夜是耶和华的夜，因耶和华领他们出了埃及地，所以当向耶和华谨守，是以色列众人世世代代该谨守的。

申明逾越节例

43 耶和华对摩西、亚伦说：“逾越节的例是这样：外邦人都不可吃这羊羔， 44 但各人用银子买的奴仆，既受了割礼就可以吃。 45 寄居的和雇工人都不可吃。 46 应当在一个房子里吃，不可把一点肉从房子里带到外头去。羊羔的骨头一根也不可折断。 47 以色列全会众都要守这礼。 48 若有外人寄居在你们中间，愿向耶和华守逾越节，他所有的男子务要受割礼，然后才容他前来遵守，他也就像本地人一样。但未受割礼的，都不可吃这羊羔。 49 本地人和寄居在你们中间的外人同归一例。” 50 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西、亚伦，以色列众人就怎样行了。 51 正当那日，耶和华将以色列人按着他们的军队，从埃及地领出来。
