New Testament

Exodus 12:5-11 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. And it shall be a lamb without blemish, a one year old male. According to this rite, you shall also take a young goat.

6. And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month. And the entire multitude of the sons of Israel shall immolate it toward evening.

7. And they shall take from its blood, and place it on both the door posts and the upper threshold of the houses, in which they will consume it.

8. And that night they shall eat the flesh, roasted by fire, and unleavened bread with wild lettuce.

9. You shall not consume anything from it raw, nor boiled in water, but only roasted by fire. You shall devour the head with its feet and entrails.

10. Neither shall there remain anything from it until morning. If anything will have been left over, you shall burn it with fire.

11. Now you shall consume it in this way: You shall gird your waist, and you shall have shoes on your feet, holding staves in your hands, and you shall consume it in haste. For it is the Passover (that is, the Crossing) of the Lord.
