Exodus 12:38-48 Amplified Bible (AMP)

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

39. They baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought from Egypt; it was not leavened because they were driven from Egypt and could not delay, nor had they prepared for themselves any food.

40. Now the time the Israelites dwelt in Egypt was 430 years. [Gen. 15:13, 14.]

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

42. It was a night of watching unto the Lord and to be much observed for bringing them out of Egypt; this same night of watching unto the Lord is to be observed by all the Israelites throughout their generations.

43. The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: No foreigner shall eat of it;

44. But every man's servant who is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then may he eat of it.

45. A foreigner or hired servant shall not eat of it.

46. In one house shall it be eaten [by one company]; you shall not carry any of the flesh outside the house; neither shall you break a bone of it. [John 19:33, 36.]

47. All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

48. When a stranger sojourning with you wishes to keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.
