nkjv@Exodus:12:31 @ Then he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, "Rise, go out from among my people, both you and the children of Israel. And go, serve the LORD as you have said.

nkjv@Exodus:12:32 @ Also take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also."

nkjv@Exodus:12:33 @ And the Egyptians urged the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste. For they said, "We shall all be dead."

nkjv@Exodus:12:34 @ So the people took their dough before it was leavened, having their kneading bowls bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.

nkjv@Exodus:12:35 @ Now the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked from the Egyptians articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing.

nkjv@Exodus:12:36 @ And the LORD had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they granted them what they requested. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.

nkjv@Exodus:12:37 @ Then the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides children.

nkjv@Exodus:12:38 @ A mixed multitude went up with them also, and flocks and herds--a great deal of livestock.

nkjv@Exodus:12:39 @ And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they had brought out of Egypt; for it was not leavened, because they were driven out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared provisions for themselves.

nkjv@Exodus:12:40 @ Now the sojourn of the children of Israel who lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.

nkjv@Exodus:12:41 @ And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years--on that very same day--it came to pass that all the armies of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:12:42 @ It is a night of solemn observance to the LORD for bringing them out of the land of Egypt. This is that night of the LORD, a solemn observance for all the children of Israel throughout their generations.

nkjv@Exodus:12:43 @ And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the Passover: No foreigner shall eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:44 @ But every man's servant who is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then he may eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:45 @ A sojourner and a hired servant shall not eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:46 @ In one house it shall be eaten; you shall not carry any of the flesh outside the house, nor shall you break one of its bones.

nkjv@Exodus:12:47 @ All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:48 @ And when a stranger dwells with you and wants to 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 a native of the land. For no uncircumcised person shall eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:49 @ One law shall be for the native-born and for the stranger who dwells among you."

nkjv@Exodus:12:50 @ Thus all the children of Israel did; as the LORD commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

nkjv@Exodus:12:51 @ And it came to pass, on that very same day, that the LORD brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their armies.

nkjv@Exodus:13:1 @ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

nkjv@Exodus:13:2 @ "Consecrate to Me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and beast; it is Mine."

nkjv@Exodus:13:3 @ And Moses said to the people: "Remember this day in which you went out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out of this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.

nkjv@Exodus:13:4 @ On this day you are going out, in the month Abib.

nkjv@Exodus:13:5 @ And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month.

nkjv@Exodus:13:6 @ Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:13:7 @ Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days. And no leavened bread shall be seen among you, nor shall leaven be seen among you in all your quarters.

nkjv@Exodus:13:8 @ And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, "This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.'

nkjv@Exodus:13:9 @ It shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the LORD's law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand the LORD has brought you out of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:13:10 @ You shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.

nkjv@Exodus:13:11 @ "And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as He swore to you and your fathers, and gives it to you,

nkjv@Exodus:13:12 @ that you shall set apart to the LORD all that open the womb, that is, every firstborn that comes from an animal which you have; the males shall be the LORD's.

nkjv@Exodus:13:13 @ But every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. And all the firstborn of man among your sons you shall redeem.

nkjv@Exodus:13:14 @ So it shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, "What is this?' that you shall say to him, "By strength of hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

nkjv@Exodus:13:15 @ And it came to pass, when Pharaoh was stubborn about letting us go, that the LORD killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast. Therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all males that open the womb, but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.'

nkjv@Exodus:13:16 @ It shall be as a sign on your hand and as frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt."
