Exodus 12:29-51 - Death Of Firstborn And Deliverance From Egypt

29 And it came to pass at midnight, that LORD smote all the first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the first-born of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the first-born of cattl 30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead. 31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, get you forth from among my people, both ye and the sons of Israel, and go, serve LORD, as ye have said. 32 Take both your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone, and bless me also.

33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, We are all dead men. 34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading-troughs being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.

35 And the sons of Israel did according to the word of Moses, and they asked of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment. 36 And LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. And they despoiled the Egyptians.

37 And the sons of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot who were men, besides children. 38 And a mixed multitude also went up with them, and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. 39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any provisions.

40 Now the time that the sons of Israel dwelt in {the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan (LXX)} was four hundred and thirty years. 41 And it came to pass at the end of four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the armies of LORD went out from the land of Egypt. 42 It is a night to be much observed to LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt. This is that night of LORD, to be much observed of all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.

43 And LORD said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover. There shall no foreigner eat of it, 44 but every man's servant who is bought for money, when thou have circumcised him, then he shall eat of it. 45 A sojourner and a hired servant shall not eat of it. 46 In one house it shall be eaten. Thou shall not carry forth any of the flesh abroad out of the house, neither shall ye break a bone of it. 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the Passover to LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it, and he shall be as one who is born in the land, but no uncircumcised man sha 49 One law shall be to him who is home-born, and to the stranger who sojourns among you.

50 Thus did all the sons of Israel, as LORD commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. 51 And it came to pass the selfsame day, that LORD brought the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
