Exodus 12:8-20

[8] And they shall eat  the flesh  in that night,  roast  with fire,  and unleavened bread;  and with bitter  herbs they shall eat  [9] Eat  not of it raw,  nor sodden  at all with water,  but roast  with fire;  his head  with his legs,  and with the purtenance  [10] And ye shall let nothing of it remain  until the morning;  and that which remaineth  of it until the morning  ye shall burn  with fire.  [11] And thus  shall ye eat  it; with your loins  girded,  your shoes  on your feet,  and your staff  in your hand;  and ye shall eat  it in haste:  it is the LORD'S  passover.  [12] For I will pass  through the land  of Egypt  this night,  and will smite  all the firstborn  in the land  of Egypt,  both man  and beast;  and against all the gods  of Egypt  I will execute  judgment:  I am the LORD.  [13] And the blood  shall be to you for a token  upon the houses  where ye are: and when I see  the blood,  I will pass  over you, and the plague  shall not be upon you to destroy  you, when I smite  the land  of Egypt.  [14] And this day  shall be unto you for a memorial;  and ye shall keep  it a feast  to the LORD  throughout your generations;  ye shall keep it a feast  by an ordinance  for ever.  [15] Seven  days  shall ye eat  unleavened bread;  even  the first  day  ye shall put away  leaven  out of your houses:  for whosoever eateth  leavened bread  from the first  day  until the seventh  day,  that soul  shall be cut  off from Israel.  [16] And in the first  day  there shall be an holy  convocation,  and in the seventh  day  there shall be an holy  convocation  to you; no manner of work  shall be done  in them, save  that which every man  must eat,  that only may be done  of you. [17] And ye shall observe  the feast of unleavened bread;  for in this selfsame  day  have I brought  your armies  out of the land  of Egypt:  therefore shall ye observe  this day  in your generations  by an ordinance  for ever.  [18] In the first  month, on the fourteenth  day  of the month  at even,  ye shall eat  unleavened bread,  until the one  and twentieth  day  of the month  at even.  [19] Seven  days  shall there be no leaven  found  in your houses:  for whosoever eateth  even that soul  shall be cut off  from the congregation  of Israel,  whether he be a stranger,  or born  in the land.  [20] Ye shall eat  in all your habitations  shall ye eat  unleavened bread.
