Institution of the Passover

⁴³And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it, ⁴⁴but every slave^[a] that is ^(B)bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him. ⁴⁵^(C)No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it. ⁴⁶It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and ^(D)you shall not break any of its bones. ⁴⁷^(E)All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. ⁴⁸^(F)If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he ^(G)shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. ⁴⁹There shall be ^(H)one law for the native and for the ^(I)stranger who sojourns among you.”
