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;(A) it is the Lord’s Passover.(B)

12 “On that same night I will pass through(C) Egypt and strike down(D) every firstborn(E) of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods(F) of Egypt. I am the Lord.(G) 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(H) you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.(I)

14 “This is a day you are to commemorate;(J) for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord—a lasting ordinance.(K)

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.
