And Jehovah{H3068} spake{H1696} unto Moses,{H4872} saying,{H559}

Sanctify{H6942} unto me all the first-born,{H1060} whatsoever openeth{H6363} the womb{H7358} among the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} both of man{H120} and of beast:{H929} it is mine.

And Moses{H4872} said{H559} unto the people,{H5971} Remember{H2142} this{H2088} day,{H3117} in which ye came out{H3318} from Egypt,{H4714} out of the house{H1004} of bondage;{H5650} for by strength{H2392} of hand{H3027} Jehovah{H3068} brought you out{H3318} from this place: there shall no leavened bread{H2557} be eaten.{H398}

This day{H3117} ye go forth{H3318} in the month{H2320} Abib.{H24}

And it shall be, when Jehovah{H3068} shall bring{H935} thee into the land{H776} of the Canaanite,{H3669} and the Hittite,{H2850} and the Amorite,{H567} and the Hivite,{H2340} and the Jebusite,{H2983} which he sware{H7650} unto thy fathers{H1} to give{H5414} thee, a land{H776} flowing{H2100} with milk{H2461} and honey,{H1706} that thou shalt keep{H5647} this service{H5656} in this month.{H2320}

Seven{H7651} days{H3117} thou shalt eat{H398} unleavened bread,{H4682} and in the seventh{H7637} day{H3117} shall be a feast{H2282} to Jehovah.{H3068}

Unleavened bread{H4682} shall be eaten{H398} throughout the seven{H7651} days;{H3117} and there shall no leavened bread{H2557} be seen{H7200} with thee, neither shall there be leaven{H7603} seen{H7200} with thee, in all thy borders.{H1366}

And thou shalt tell{H5046} thy son{H1121} in that day,{H3117} saying,{H559} It is because of{H5668} that{H2088} which Jehovah{H3068} did{H6213} for me when I came forth{H3318} out of Egypt.{H4714}

And it shall be for a sign{H226} unto thee upon thy hand,{H3027} and for a memorial{H2146} between thine eyes,{H5869} that the law{H8451} of Jehovah{H3068} may be in thy mouth:{H6310} for with a strong{H2389} hand{H3027} hath Jehovah{H3068} brought thee out{H3318} of Egypt.{H4714}

Thou shalt therefore keep{H8104} this ordinance{H2708} in its season{H4150} from year{H3117} to year.{H3117}

And it shall be, when Jehovah{H3068} shall bring{H935} thee into the land{H776} of the Canaanite,{H3669} as he sware{H7650} unto thee and to thy fathers,{H1} and shall give{H5414} it thee,

that thou shalt set apart{H5674} unto Jehovah{H3068} all that openeth{H6363} the womb,{H7358} and every firstling{H6363} which thou hast that cometh{H7698} of a beast;{H929} the males{H2145} shall be Jehovah's.{H3068}

And every firstling{H6363} of an ass{H2543} thou shalt redeem{H6299} with a lamb;{H7716} and if thou wilt not redeem{H6299} it, then thou shalt break its neck:{H6202} and all the first-born{H1060} of man{H120} among thy sons{H1121} shalt thou redeem.{H6299}

And it shall be, when thy son{H1121} asketh{H7592} thee in time to come,{H4279} saying,{H559} What is this? that thou shalt say{H559} unto him, By strength{H2392} of hand{H3027} Jehovah{H3068} brought us out{H3318} from Egypt,{H4714} from the house{H1004} of bondage:{H5650}

and it came to pass, when Pharaoh{H6547} would hardly{H7185} let us go,{H7971} that Jehovah{H3068} slew{H2026} all the first-born{H1060} in the land{H776} of Egypt,{H4714} both the first-born{H1060} of man,{H120} and the first-born{H1060} of beast:{H929} therefore I sacrifice{H2076} to Jehovah{H3068} all that openeth{H6363} the womb,{H7358} being males;{H2145} but all the first-born{H1060} of my sons{H1121} I redeem.{H6299}

And it shall be for a sign{H226} upon thy hand,{H3027} and for frontlets{H2903} between thine eyes:{H5869} for by strength{H2392} of hand{H3027} Jehovah{H3068} brought us forth{H3318} out of Egypt.{H4714}

And it came to pass, when Pharaoh{H6547} had let the people{H5971} go,{H7971} that God{H430} led{H5148} them not by the way{H1870} of the land{H776} of the Philistines,{H6430} although{H3588} that was near;{H7138} for God{H430} said,{H559} Lest peradventure the people{H5971} repent{H5162} when they see{H7200} war,{H4421} and they return{H7725} to Egypt:{H4714}

but God{H430} led{H5437} the people{H5971} about,{H5437} by the way{H1870} of the wilderness{H4057} by the Red{H5488} Sea:{H3220} and the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} went up{H5927} armed{H2571} out of the land{H776} of Egypt.{H4714}

And Moses{H4872} took{H3947} the bones{H6106} of Joseph{H3130} with him: for he had straitly{H7650} sworn{H7650} the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} saying,{H559} God{H430} will surely{H6485} visit{H6485} you; and ye shall carry up{H5927} my bones{H6106} away{H5927} hence with you.

And they took their journey{H5265} from Succoth,{H5523} and encamped{H2583} in Etham,{H864} in the edge{H7097} of the wilderness.{H4057}

And Jehovah{H3068} went{H1980} before{H6440} them by day{H3119} in a pillar{H5982} of cloud,{H6051} to lead{H5148} them the way,{H1870} and by night{H3915} in a pillar{H5982} of fire,{H784} to give them light;{H215} that they might go{H3212} by day{H3119} and by night:{H3915}

the pillar{H5982} of cloud{H6051} by day,{H3119} and the pillar{H5982} of fire{H784} by night,{H3915} departed{H4185} not from before{H6440} the people.{H5971}
