Exodus 12:36-46 English Standard Version (ESV)

36. And the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.

37. And the people of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children.

38. A mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds.

39. And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough that they had brought out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared any provisions for themselves.

40. The time that the people of Israel lived in Egypt was 430 years.

41. At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

42. It was a night of watching by the Lord, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the Lord by all the people of Israel throughout their generations.

43. And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it,

44. but every slave that is bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him.

45. No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it.

46. It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and you shall not break any of its bones.
