And in the first month, in the _fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, [is] the passover to YHWH (Exodus 12, Exodus 13, Exodus 23, Exodus 34, Leviticus 23, Deuteronomy 16, Numbers 28)

whole assembly of the company of Israel have slaughtered it between the evenings;
they have taken of the blood, and have put on the two side-posts, and on the lintel over the houses in which they eat it.
they have eaten the flesh in this night,
roast with fire;
with unleavened things and bitters they do eat it
- until the one and twentieth day of the month, at evening;
- seven days leaven is not found in your houses,
  - for any [one] eating anything fermented -- that person hath been cut off from the company of Israel,
  - among the sojourners or among the natives of the land
- anything fermented ye do not eat, in all your dwellings ye do eat unleavened things.
  - and the people taketh up its dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs [are] bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
  - And they bake with the dough which they have brought out from Egypt unleavened cakes,
and ye do not leave of it till morning,
and that which is remaining of it till morning with fire ye do burn.
And thus ye do eat it:
- your loins girded,
- your sandals on your feet,
- and your staff in your hand,
- and ye have eaten it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover
and I have passed over through the land of Egypt during this night, at midnight
- and have smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt,
  - from the first-born of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne,
  - - unto the first-born of the captive who [is] in the prison-house,
- from man even unto beast,
- and on all the gods of Egypt I do judgments; I [am] Jehovah.
{And the blood hath become a sign for you on the houses where ye [are],:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):}:
- and I have seen the blood,:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):
- and have passed over you,:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):
- and a plague is not on you for destruction in My smiting in the land of Egypt.:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):
:{And this day hath become to you a memorial,:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):}:
- and ye have kept it a feast to Jehovah to your generations;
- -- a statute age-during;
- ye keep it a feast.
- and it hath been, when ye come in unto the land which Jehovah giveth to you, as He hath spoken, that ye have kept this service;
- What [is] this service ye have?
  - [It is] because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from Egypt,
- for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt;
  - it hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand,
  - and for a memorial between thine eyes,
  - so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth,
  - and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.
And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee,
- and hath made a passover to Jehovah,
- every male of his [is] to be circumcised,
- and then he doth come near to keep it,
- and he hath been as a native of the land,
- but any uncircumcised one doth not eat of it;
- :{one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.’:(style="background-color:#ffe0e0"):}:

And he hath strengthened a covenant with many --
one week, and [in] the midst of the week he causeth sacrifice and present to cease,
and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate,
