to them ´Go and choose a lamb or kid for
your families, and kill the Passover victim. Then take
a bunch of hyssop*, dip it in the blood that
is in the basin, and with the blood from the basin touch
the lintel and both door posts; then let
none of you ventue of the house till morning. Then, when
Yahweh goes through Egypt to strike it,
and sees the blood on the lintel and on both door posts,
he weill pass over the door and not allow
the Destroyer to enter your homes and strike.

in Egypt from the first-born of the
Pharaoh, heir to his throne, to the first-born of the
prisoner in the dungeon, and first-born of all
the livestock. phaaraoh and all his officials and all
the Egyptians got up in the night, and there
was great wailing in Egypt, there was not a house without
