Then the whole assembly of the community of Israel shall slaughter it at twilight. 7 They shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses where they eat it. 8 They shall eat the meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. 9 Do not eat it raw or boiled in water, but only roasted over the fire—its head, legs, and inner parts. 10 Do not leave any of it until morning; if any is left over until morning, burn it in the fire. 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; it is the LORD's Passover. 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night and strike down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast, and I will execute judgments against all the gods of Egypt.
