Exodus 12:14-20
New King James Version
14 ‘So this day shall be to you (A)a memorial; and you shall keep it as a (B)feast to the Lord throughout your generations. You shall keep it as a feast (C)by an everlasting ordinance. 15 (D)Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, (E)that [a]person shall be [b]cut off from Israel. 16 On the first day there shall be (F)a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you. No manner of work shall be done on them; but that which everyone must eat—that only may be prepared by you. 17 So you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for (G)on this same day I will have brought your [c]armies (H)out of the land of Egypt. Therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations as an everlasting ordinance. 18 (I)In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. 19 For (J)seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land. 20 You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.’ ”

Offerings at Passover(A)
16 (B)‘On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of the Lord. 17 (C)And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast; unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days. 18 On the (D)first day you shall have a holy [a]convocation. You shall do no [b]customary work. 19 And you shall present an offering made by fire as a burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one ram, and seven lambs in their first year. (E)Be sure they are without blemish. 20 Their grain offering shall be of fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah you shall offer for a bull, and two-tenths for a ram; 21 you shall offer one-tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs; 22 also (F)one goat as a sin offering, to make [c]atonement for you. 23 You shall offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a regular burnt offering. 24 In this manner you shall offer the food of the offering made by fire daily for seven days, as a sweet aroma to the Lord; it shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 And (G)on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work.
