출애굽기(Exodus) 12장

 

1. The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in

Egypt,

 

2. "This month is to be for you the first

month, the first month of your year.

 

3. Tell the whole community of Israel that

on the tenth day of this month each man

is to take a lamb for his family, one for

each household.

 

4. If any household is too small for a

whole lamb, they must share one with

their nearest neighbor, having taken

into account the number of people

there are. You are to determine the

amount of lamb needed in

accordance with each person

will eat.

 

5. The animals you choose must be year

-old males without defect, and you may

take them from the sheep or the goats.

 

6. Take care of them until the fourteenth

day of the month, when all the people

of the community of Israel must

slaughter them at twilight.

 

7. Then they are to take some of the

blood and put it on the sides and

tops of the doorframes of the

houses where they eat the lambs.

 

8. That same night they are to eat the

meat roasted over the fire, along with

bitter herbs, and bread made without

yeast.

 

9. Do not eat the meat raw or cooked in

water, but roast it over the fire- -head,

legs and inner parts.

 

10. Do not leave any of it till morning; if

some is left till morning, you must burn

it.

 

11. This is how you are to eat it: with

your cloak tucked into your belt, your

sandals on your feet and your staff in

your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the

LORD's Passover.

 

12. "On that same night I will pass through

Egypt and strike down every firstborn- -

both men and animals- -and I will bring

judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am

the LORD.

 

13. The blood will be a sign for you on

the houses where you are; and when

I see the blood, I will pass over you.

No destructive plague will touch you

when I strike Egypt.

 

14. "This is a day you are to

commemorate; for the generations

to come you shall celebrate it as a

festival to the LORD -a lasting

ordinance.

 

15. For seven days you are to eat bread

made without yeast. On the first day

remove the yeast from your houses,

for whoever eats anything with yeast

in it from the first day through the

seventh must be cut off from Israel.

 

16. On the first dayb hold a sacred

assembly, and another one on the

seventh day. Do no work at all on

these days, excrpt to prepare food

for everyone to eat- -that is all you

may do.

 

17. "Celebrate the Feast of Unleavened

Bread, because it was on this very day

that I brought your divisions out of

Egypt. Celebrate this day as a lasting

ordinance for the generations to

come.

 

18. In the first month you are to eat bread

without yeast, from the evening of the

fourteenth day until the evening of the

twenty-first day.

 

19. For seven days no yeast is to be found

in your houses. And whoever eats

anything with yeast in it must be cut

off from the community of Israel,

whether he is an alien or native-born.

 

20. Eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever

you live, you must eat unleavened bread."

 

21. Then Moses summoned all the elders

of Israel and said to them, "Go at once

and select the animals for your families

and slaughter the Passover lamb.

 

22. Take a bunch of hyssop, dip it into the

blood in the basin and put some of the

blood on the top and on both sides of

the doorframe. Not one of you shall go

out the door of his house until morning.

 

23. When the LORD goes through the land

to strike down the Egyptians, he will see

the blood on the top and sides of the

doorframe and will pass over that

doorway, and he will not permit the

destroyer to enter your houses and

strike you down.

 

24. "Obey these instructions as a lasting

ordinance for you and your descendants.

 

25. When you enter the land that the

LORD will give you as he promised,

observe this ceremony.

 

 

26. And when your children ask you, 'What

does this ceremony mean to you?'

 

27. then tell them, 'It is the Passover

sacrifice to the LORD, who passed over

the houses of the Israelites in Egypt

and spared our homes when he struck

down the Egyptians.'" Then the people

bowed down and worshiped.

 

28. The Israelites did just what the LORD

commanded Moses and Aaron.

 

29. At midnight the LORD struck down all

the firstborn in Egypt, from the firstborn

of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the

firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the

dungeon, and the firstborn of all the

livestock as well.

 

30. Pharaoh and all his officials and all the

Egyptians got up during the night, and

there was loud wailing in Egypt, for there

was not a house without someone dead.

 

31. During the night Pharaoh summoned

Moses and Aaron and said, "Up! Leave

my people, you and the Israelites! Go,

worship the LORD as you have

requested.

 

32. Take your flocks and herds, as you

have said, and go. And also bless me."

 

33. The Egyptians urged the people to

hurry and leave the country. "For

otherwise," they said, "we will all die!"

 

34. So the people took their dough before

the yeast was added, and carried it on

their shoulders in kneading troughs

wrapped in clothing.

 

35. The Israelites did as Moses instructed

and asked the Egyptians for articles of

silver and gold and for clothing.

 

36. The LORD had made the Egyptians

favorably disposed toward the people,

and they gave them what they asked

for; so they plundered the Egyptians.

 

37. The Israelites journeyed from Rameses

to Succoth. There were about six hundred

thousand men on foot, besides women

and children.

 

38. Many other people went up with

them, as well as large droves of

livestock, both flocks and herds.

 

39. With the dough they had brought

from Egypt, they baked cakes of

unleavened bread. The dough was

without yeast because they had been

driven out of Egypt and did not have

time to prepare food for themselves.

 

40. Now the length of time the Israelite

people lived in Egypt was 430 years.

 

41. At the end of the 430 years, to the

very day, all the LORD's divisions left

Egypt.

 

42. Because the LORD kept vigil that night

to bring them out of Egypt, on this night

all the Israelites are to keep vigil to honor

the LORD for the generations to come.

 

43. The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

"These are the regulations for the

Passover: "No foreigner is to eat of it.

 

44. Any slave you have bought may eat of

it after you have circumcised him,

 

45. but a temporary resident and a hired

worker may not eat of it.

 

46. "It must be eaten insied one house;

take none of the meat outside the house.

Do not break any of the bones.

 

47. The whole community of Israel must

celebrate it.

 

48. "An alien living among you who wants

to celebrate the LORD's Passover must

have all the males in his household

circumcised; then he may take part like

one born in the land. No uncircumcised

male may eat of it.

 

49. The same law applied to the native-

born and to the alien living among you."

 

50. All the Israelites did just what the LORD

had commanded Moses and Aaron.

 

51. And on that very day the LORD

brought the Israelites out of Egypt

by their divisions.
