15 Bo – Day 6
Sh’moth 12:29-51
And it came to be at midnight that YHWH struck all the first-born in the land of Mitsrayim, 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 livestock.
And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants, and all the Mitsrites. And there was a great cry in Mitsrayim, for there was not a house where there was not a dead one.
Then he called for Mosheh and Aharon by night, and said, “Arise, go out from the midst of my people, both you and the children of Yisra’ěl. And go, serve YHWH as you have said.
“Take both your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and go. Then you shall bless me too.”
And the Mitsrites were strong on the people, to hasten to send them away out of the land. For they said, “We are all dying!”
And the people took their dough before it was leavened, having their kneading bowls bound up in their garments on their shoulders.
And the children of Yisra’ěl had done according to the word of Mosheh, and they had asked from the Mitsrites objects of silver, and objects of gold, and garments.
And YHWH gave the people favor in the eyes of the Mitsrites, so that they gave them what they asked, and they plundered the Mitsrites.
And the children of Yisra’ěl set out from Ra‛meses to Sukkoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides the little ones.
And a mixed multitude went up with them too, also flocks and herds, very much livestock.
And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they had brought out of Mitsrayim, for it was not leavened, since they were driven out of Mitsrayim, and had not been able to delay, nor had they prepared food for themselves.
And the sojourn of the children of Yisra’ěl who lived in Mitsrayim was four hundred and thirty years.
And it came to be at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that same day it came to be that all the divisions of YHWH went out from the land of Mitsrayim.
It is a night of watches unto YHWH for bringing them out of the land of Mitsrayim. This is that night of watches unto YHWH, for all the children of Yisra’ěl throughout their generations.
And YHWH said to Mosheh and Aharon, “This is the law of the Pěsaḥ: No son of a stranger is to eat of it, but any servant a man has bought for silver, when you have circumcised him, then let him eat of it.
“A sojourner and a hired servant does not eat of it.
“It is eaten in one house, you are not to take any of the flesh outside the house, nor are you to break any bone of it.
“All the congregation of Yisra’ěl are to perform it.
“And when a stranger sojourns with you and shall perform the Pěsaḥ to YHWH, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and perform it, and he shall be as a native of the land. But let no uncircumcised eat of it.
“There is one Torah for the native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
And all the children of Yisra’ěl did as YHWH commanded Mosheh and Aharon, so they did.
And it came to be on that same day that YHWH brought the children of Yisra’ěl out of the land of Mitsrayim according to their divisions.
