24And you are to keep this as an order to you and to your sons for ever.
25And when you come into the land which the Lord will make yours, as he gave his word, you are to keep this act of worship.
26And when your children say to you, What is the reason of this act of worship?
27Then you will say, This is the offering of the Lord's Passover; for he went over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he sent death on the Egyptians, and kept our families safe. And the people gave worship with bent heads.
28And the children of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had given orders to Moses and Aaron, so they did.
29And in the middle of the night the Lord sent death on every first male child in the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power to the child of the prisoner in the prison; and the first births of all the cattle.
30Then Pharaoh got up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians; and a great cry went up from Egypt; for there was not a house where someone was not dead.
