³ Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb ^(A)according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household.

⁶ and you shall keep it until the ^(A)fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight.^[a]

⁷ “Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the ^(A)two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.

^13 (A)The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
