Exodus 12:22-24
EasyEnglish Bible
22 Put the blood into a dish. Then take a branch of hyssop.[a] Make it wet with the blood that is in the dish. Then put some of the blood on the wood that is round your door. Nobody must go out of the door of his house until the morning. 23 The Lord will pass through the country and he will kill the Egyptians. But when the Lord sees the blood on the wood round the door, he will pass over that house. He will not let the death angel come into your houses. The Lord will not let him kill you.
24 You must obey these rules always, both you and your descendants, for all time.
