1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, in the land of Egypt, saying,
2 `This month [is] to you the chief of months--it [is] the first to you of the months of the year;
3 speak ye unto all the company of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month--they take to them each man a lamb for the house of the fathers, a lamb for a house.
4 `(And if the household be too few for a lamb, then hath he taken, he and his neighbour who is near unto his house, for the number of persons, each according to his eating ye do count for the lamb,)
5 a lamb, a perfect one, a male, a son of a year, let be to you; from the sheep or from the goats ye do take [it].
