[The Pentateuch]

And Moses called for the elders off Israel and said unto them: choose our and take to every household a sheep, and kill passover. And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood ⟨image 118⟩that is in the basin, and strike it upon the up perposte and on the .ij. side posts, and see that none of you goo out at the door of his house until the morning. For the Lord will goo about and smite Egypt. And when he seeth the blood upon the upper doorpost and on the .ij. side posts, he will pass over the door and will not su••re the destroyer to come into your house to plague you. Therefore see that thou observe this thing, that it be an ordinance to thee, and thy sons for over.

And when ye be come into the land which the Lord will give you according as he hath¹ promised, see that ye keep this service. * And when your children axe you what manner off service is this ye do. Ye shall say▪ it is the sacrifice of the Lords passover which passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, as he smote the Egyptians and saved our houses. Than the people bowed them selves and worshipped. And the children of Israel went and did as the Lord had commaū dead Moses and Aaron.
