Exodus 12:13 in Context — Exodus 12

11 Quand vous le mangerez, vous aurez vos reins ceints, vos souliers aux pieds, et votre bâton à la main; et vous le mangerez à la hâte. C’est la Pâque de l’Éternel.

12 Cette nuit-là, je passerai dans le pays d’Égypte, et je frapperai tous les premiers-nés du pays d’Égypte, depuis les hommes jusqu’aux animaux, et j’exercerai des jugements contre tous les dieux de l’Égypte. Je suis l’Éternel.

13 Le sang vous servira de signe sur les maisons où vous serez; je verrai le sang, et je passerai par-dessus vous, et il n’y aura point de plaie qui vous détruise, quand je frapperai le pays d’Égypte.

14 Vous conserverez le souvenir de ce jour, et vous le célébrerez par une fête en l’honneur de l’Éternel; vous le célébrerez comme une loi perpétuelle pour vos descendants.

15 Pendant sept jours, vous mangerez des pains sans levain. Dès le premier jour, il n’y aura plus de levain dans vos maisons; car toute personne qui mangera du pain levé, du premier jour au septième jour, sera retranchée d’Israël.
