AThe LORDE sayde vnto Moses ∧ Aaron
in the londe of Egipte: This moneth
shal be with you þe; first moneth
∧ at it ye shall begynne the monethes of the
yeare. Speake ye vnto all the congregacion
of Israel, ∧ saye: Vpon þe; tenth daye of this
moneth let euery one take a note l&abar;be (or a kydd)
where a housholder is, to euery house a l&abar;be.
But yf the housholde be to few for a lambe,
th&ebar; let him ∧ his neghbo&highr; þt; is next vnto his
house, take it acordinge to the nombre of þe;
soules, and counte to the lambe, what euery
man maye eate. But it shal be a lambe without
blemish, a male, ∧ of a yeare olde. From
amonge the lambes ∧ goates shal ye take it.
And ye shal kepe it vnto þe; fourtene daye
of the moneth. And euery man of the congregacion
of Israel shal slaye it aboute the eueninge.
noteAnd they shal take of his bloude, and
stryke it on both the syde postes of the dore,
and on the vpperdore post of the house, that
they eate it in. B And so shal they eate flesh þe;
same night, rosted at the fyre, ∧ vnleuended
bred, and shal eate it with sowre sawse. Ye
shal not eate it rawe, ner sodden with water,
but onely rosted at the fyre, his heade &wt; his
fete and pertenaunce. And ye shal leaue nothynge
of it ouer vntyll the mornynge: but
yf eny thinge be left ouer vntyll the mornynge,
ye shal burne it with fyre.

Of this maner shal ye eate it: Ye shal be
gyrded aboute youre loynes, and haue youre
shues vpon youre fete, and staues in yo&highr; handes,
and ye shal eate it with haist: for it is þe;
LORDES Passeouer. noteFor in the same night
wil I go thorow the londe of Egipte, ∧ smyte
all the firstborne in the lande of Egipte,
from men vnto catell, ∧ vpon all the goddes
of Egipte wyll I do execucion. Euen I the
LORDE. noteAnd the bloude shal be youre token,
vpon the houses wherin ye are: þt; whan I se
the bloude, I maye passe ouer, and that the
plage happen not vnto you, to destroye you,
whan I smyte the londe of Egipte.
-- --
C And this daye shall ye haue for a remembraunce,
and ye shall kepe it holy for a feast
vnto the LORDE, ye ∧ all youre posterities,
for a perpetuall custome. noteSeuen dayes shall
ye eate vnleuended bred: namely, vpon the
first daie shal ye leaue of with leuended bred
in youre houses. Who so euer eateth leuended
bred from the first daye vnto þe; seuenth
that soule shall be roted out from Israel.
The first daye shall be called holy amonge
you, and the seuenth also. No maner of worke
shall ye do therin, saue what belongeth to
the meate for all maner of soules, that onely
maye ye do for you. And kepe you to leuended
bred.
For euen vpon that same daye wil I brynge
youre armies out of the londe of Egipte,
therfore shall ye and all youre posterities
kepe this daye for a perpetuall custome. noteVpon
the fourtene daye of the first moneth,
at euen, shall ye eate vnleuended bred, vnto
the one and twentye daye of the moneth,
at euen: so that there be no leuended bred
founde in youre houses seuen dayes. For
who so euer eateth leuended bred, that soule
shall be roted out from the congregacion
of Israel, whether it be a straunger or borne
in the londe. Therfore eate no leuended
bred, but onely vnleuended bred in all youre
dwellynges.
D And Moses called all the Elders of Israel,
and sayde vnto them: Chose out, and take
to euery housholde a shepe, and kyll Passeouer
vnto the LORDE: and take a bunch
of ysope, and dyppe it in the bloude in the
basen, and stryke it vpon the vpperposte
and vpon the two syde postes, and none of
you go out at the dore of his house vntyll þe;
mornynge, for the LORDE wyll go aboute
and plage the Egipcians. And whan
he seyth the bloude vp&obar; the vpperposte, and
vpon the two syde postes, he wyl passe ouer
by the dore, and not suffre the destroyer to come
in to youre houses to plage. Therfore kepe
this custome for the and thy children for
euer.
And whan ye be come into þe; londe that
the LORDE shal geue you, (as he hath sayde)
then kepe this seruyce. noteAnd whan youre
children saye vnto you: What seruyce is
this, that ye haue? Ye shal saye: It is the sacrifice
of the LORDES Passeouer, which passed
ouer by the children of Israel in Egipte,
whan he plaged the Egipcians, and saued
oure houses. Then the people bowed them
selues, and worshipped. And the children
of Israel wente and dyd, as the LORDE had
commaunded Moses and Aaron.
EnoteAnd at mydnight the LORDE smote all
the firstborne in the lande of Egipte: from
Pharaos first sonne (which sat vpon his seate)
vntyll the first sonne of the presoner that
was in the preson, and all the firstborne of
the catell. Then Pharao arose þe; same night,
and all his seruauntes, and all the Egipcians,
∧ there was a greate crye in Egipte:
for there was no house wherin there was
not one deed.
noteAnd he called for Moses and Aaron in þe;
night, and sayde: Get you vp, and departe
out fro my people, ye and the children of Israel:
go youre waye, and serue the LORDE,
as ye haue sayde: and take youre shepe and
youre oxen with you, note as ye haue sayde, and
departe, and blesse me also. And the Egipcians
were fearce vpon the people, to dryue
them haistely out of the londe, for they saide:
we are all but deed.
And the people toke the rawe dowe, before
it was leuended (for their foode) bounde
in their clothes vpon their shulders. And
the children of Israel had done note as Moses
sayde, and borowed Iewels of syluer and
golde, and clothes of the Egipcians: the
LORDE also had geuen the people fauoure
in the sight of the Egipcians, that they
lent them, and so they spoyled the Egipcians.
F Thus þe; children of Israel toke their iourney
from Raemses to Suchoth, note sixe hundreth
thousande men of fote, besyde childr&ebar;.
There wente with them also moch com&obar; people,
and shepe, and oxen, and exceadinge many
catell.
And of the rawe dowe that they brought
out of Egipte, they baked vnleu&ebar;ded cakes:
for it was not leuended, in so moch as they
were thrust out of Egipte, and coude not tary:
nether had they prepared them eny other
meate.
The tyme þt; the children of Israel dwelt
in Egipte, is foure hondreth and thirtie yeares.
Whan the same were ended, the whole
hoost of the LORDE wente out of the londe
of Egipte in one daye. Therfore shall this
night be kepte vnto the LORDE, because he
brought them out of the londe of Egipte:
And the children of Israel shall kepe it vnto
the LORDE, they and their posterities.
G And the LORDE sayde vnto Moses and
Aaron: This is the maner of the kepynge
of Passeouer. There shal no stra&ubar;ger eate of
it. But who so is a bought seruaunt let him
be circumcysed, ∧ then eate therof. A straunger
-- --
and an hyred serua&ubar;t shal not eate of it.
In one house shal it be eat&ebar;. Ye shal cary none
of his flesh out of the house, and note ye shal
not breake a bone of him. The whole congregacion
of Israel shal do it.
But yf there dwel a straunger with the,
∧ wil holde passeouer vnto the LORDE, let
him cicumcyse euery one that is male, and
then let him first come, and do it, and be as
one that is borne in the londe: for there shal
no vncircumcysed eate therof. One maner
of lawe be vnto him þt; is borne in the londe,
∧ vnto the stra&ubar;ger þt; dwelleth am&obar;ge you.
And all the childr&ebar; of Israel dyd as the LORDE
commaunded Moses ∧ Aaron. So vp&obar;
one daye the LORDE brought the childr&ebar; of
Israel out of the l&obar;de of Egipte with their
armyes.
