You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; then the whole assembled congregation of Israel shall slaughter it at twilight.(A) They shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. They shall eat the lamb that same night; they shall eat it roasted over the fire with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.(B) Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water but roasted over the fire, with its head, legs, and inner organs. 10 You shall let none of it remain until the morning; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn with fire.(C) 11 This is how you shall eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and you shall eat it hurriedly. It is the Passover of the Lord.(D) 12 I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from human to animal, and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.(E) 13 The blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you live: when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague shall destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.

14 “This day shall be a day of remembrance for you. You shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord; throughout your generations you shall observe it as a perpetual ordinance.(F)

That same night(D) they are to eat the meat roasted(E) over the fire, along with bitter herbs,(F) and bread made without yeast.(G) Do not eat the meat raw or boiled in water, but roast it over a fire—with the head, legs and internal organs.(H) 10 Do not leave any of it till morning;(I) 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;(J) it is the Lord’s Passover.(K)

12 “On that same night I will pass through(L) Egypt and strike down(M) every firstborn(N) of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods(O) of Egypt. I am the Lord.(P) 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(Q) you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.(R)
