Shemoth [Exodus] 12:1-14, "now YHWH said to mosheh and aharon in the land of mitsrayim, ² 'this month will be the beginning of months for you; it is to be the first month of the year to you. ³ speak to all the assembly of yisrael, saying, "on the tenth of this month they are each one to take a lamb for themselves, according to the beyth of their fathers, a lamb for each beyth. ⁴ now if the beyth is too small for a lamb, then he and his neighbor nearest to his beyth are to take one according to the number of persons in them; according to what each man should eat, you are to divide the lamb. ⁵ your lamb will be an unblemished male a year old; you may take it from the sheep or from the goats. ⁶ you will keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month, then the whole assembly of the assembly of yisrael is to kill it at twilight. ⁷ moreover, they will take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. ⁸ they will eat the flesh that same night, roasted with fire, and they will eat it with matstsoth and bitter herbs. ⁹ do not eat any of it raw or boiled at all with water, but rather roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with its entrails. ¹⁰ and you will not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you will burn with fire. ¹¹ now you will eat it in this manner, with your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you will eat it in haste it is pesach to YHWH." ¹²for i will go through the land of mitsrayim on that night, and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of mitsrayim, both man and beast; and against all the elohey of mitsrayim i will execute judgments i am YHWH. ¹³ the blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you live; 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 mitsrayim. ¹⁴ now this day will be a memorial to you, and you will celebrate it as a feast to YHWH; throughout your generations you are to celebrate it as an eternal rule.' "

12:21-29, "²¹ then mosheh called for all the elders of yisrael and said to them, 'go and take for yourselves lambs according to your families, and slay the pesach lamb. ²² you will take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and apply some of the blood that is in the basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you will go outside the door of his beyth until morning. ²³ for YHWH will pass through to strike mitsrayim; and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, YHWH will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to come in to your houses to strike you. ²⁴ and you will observe this event as an rule for you and your children forever. ²⁵ when you enter the land which YHWH will give you, as he has promised, you will observe this rite. ²⁶ and when your children say to you, "what does this rite mean to you?" ²⁷ you will say, "it is a pesach sacrifice to YHWH who passed over the houses of the sons of yisrael in mitsrayim when he struck mitsrayim, but spared our homes." ' and the people bowed low and worshiped. ²⁸ then the sons of yisrael went and did so; just as YHWH had commanded mosheh and aharon, so they did. ²⁹ now it came about at midnight that YHWH struck all the firstborn in the land of mitsrayim, from the firstborn of faraoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle."

12:42-49, " '⁴² it is a night to be observed for YHWH for having brought them out from the land of mitsrayim; this night is for YHWH, to be observed by all the sons of yisrael throughout their generations.' ⁴³ YHWH said to mosheh and aharon, 'this is the rule of the pesach, no foreigner is to eat of it; ⁴⁴ but every slave of a man, purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. ⁴⁵ a settler or a hired servant will not eat of it. ⁴⁶ it is to be eaten in a single beyth; you are not to bring forth any of the flesh outside of the beyth, nor are you to break any bone of it. ⁴⁷ all the assembly of yisrael are to celebrate this. ⁴⁸ but if a ger stays with you, and celebrates the pesach to YHWH, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to celebrate it; and he will be like a native of the land. but no uncircumcised person may eat of it. ⁴⁹ the same thorah will apply to the native as to the ger who stays among you.' "

II Dibrey HaYamiym 35:1,2,6-9,11,13,16-19, "and yoshiyahu performed a pesach in yerushalaim to YHWH, and they killed the pesach offering on the fourteenth of the first month. ² and he made the kohaniym stand over their charges, and made them strong for the service of the beyth YHWH, ³ and said to the lewiym who were teaching all yisrael, who were cleansed to YHWH, 'put the set apart ark in the beyth that shlomoh ben dawiyd the king of yisrael built; it will not be a burden on your shoulders. now serve YHWH your elohey, and his people yisrael, ⁴ and prepare by the beyth of your fathers, according to your courses, by the writing of dawiyd the king of yisrael, and by the writing of his son shlomoh, ⁵ and stand in the set apart place, by the divisions of the beyth of the fathers of your brothers, the sons of the people, and the portion of the beyth of the father of the lewiym; ⁶ and kill the pesach offering and cleanse yourselves, and prepare for your brothers, to do according to the word of YHWH, by the hand of mosheh.' ⁷ and yoshiyahu lifted up to the sons of the people a flock of lambs and young goats, all for pesach offerings, for everyone who was found, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand oxen; these were from the king's substance. ⁸ and his leaders lifted up for a freewill offering to the people, to the kohaniym, and to the lewiym, hilqiyah, and zekaryahu, and yechiyel, rulers in the beyth of the elohiym, gave to the kohen two thousand and six hundred for pesach offerings, and three hundred oxen. ⁹ and konanyahu, and shemayahu, and nethaneel, his brothers; and chashabyahu, and yeyel, and yozabad, chiefs of the lewiym, lifted up to the lewiym five thousand for pesach offerings, and five hundred oxen. ¹⁰ and the service was prepared, and the kohaniym stood in their place, and the lewiym in their courses, according to the command of the king. ¹¹ and they slaughtered the pesach offering and the kohaniym sprinkled out of their hand, and the lewiym were stripping; ¹² and they removed the burnt offering, to distribute them by the divisions of the beyth of the fathers of the sons of the people, to offer to YHWH, as it is written in the book of mosheh, and so to the oxen. ¹³ and they cooked the pesach with fire, according to the ordinance; and they cooked the set apart things in pots, and in kettles, and in pans, and carried to all the sons of the people. ¹⁴ and afterward they prepared for themselves, and for the kohaniym; for the kohaniym, the sons of aharon, were offering up the burnt offering and the fat until nightfall; and the lewiym prepared for themselves and for the kohaniym; the sons of aharon. ¹⁵ and the singers, the sons of asaf, were in their place, according to dawiyd's command, and asaf, and heyman, and yeduthun the seer of the king; and the gatekeepers were at each gate; it was not for them to depart from their service, for their brothers the lewiym prepared for them. ¹⁶ and all the service of YHWH was prepared on that day, to perform the pesach, and to offer burnt offerings on the altar of YHWH, according to the command of king yoshiyahu. ¹⁷ and the sons of yisrael who were found performed the pesach at that time, and chag hamatstsoth, seven days. ¹⁸ and there had not been a pesach performed like it in yisrael from the days of shemuel the nabiy; and none of the kings of yisrael performed such a pesach as yoshiyahu performed, and the kohaniym, and the lewiym and all yahudah and yisrael who were found, and the inhabitants of yerushalaim. ¹⁹ in the eighteenth year of the reign of yoshiyahu, this pesach was performed."
