Exodus 12:20-25 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. During this festival you must not eat any yeast. You must eat bread without yeast wherever you live.”

21. So Moses called all the elders together and told them, “Get the lambs for your families. Kill the lambs for the Passover.

22. Take bunches of hyssop and dip them in the bowls filled with blood. Paint the blood on the sides and top of each doorframe. No one must leave their house until morning.

23. At the time the Lord goes through Egypt to kill the firstborn, he will see the blood on the sides and top of each doorframe. Then he will protect that house and not let the Destroyer come into any of your houses and hurt you.

24. You must remember this command. This law is for you and your descendants forever.

25. You must remember to do this even when you go to the land the Lord is giving you.
