40 The time the Israelites had stayed in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
41 At the end of four hundred and thirty years, on this very date, all the armies of the Lord left the land of Egypt.
42 This was a night of vigil for the Lord, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt; so on this night all Israelites must keep a vigil for the Lord throughout their generations.
43 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron: This is the Passover statute. No foreigner may eat of it.
44 However, every slave bought for money you will circumcise; then he may eat of it.
45 But no tenant or hired worker may eat of it.
46 It must be eaten in one house; you may not take any of its meat outside the house. You shall not break any of its bones.
