1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying:
2 This month shall be the beginning of months to you. It shall be the first month of the year to you.
3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying: On the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for a household.
4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the persons; according to what each man shall eat, divide the lamb.
