With your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it<br />

in haste; it is the Lord’s passover.<br />

For I will pass through the land <strong>of</strong> Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land<br />

<strong>of</strong> Egypt, both man and beast.<br />

Exodus ch. 12, v. 11<br />

And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the<br />

Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not<br />

one dead.<br />

Exodus ch. 12, v. 30<br />

And they spoiled the Egyptians.<br />

Exodus ch. 12, v. 36<br />

night in a pillar <strong>of</strong> fire, to give them light.<br />

Exodus ch. 13, v. 21<br />

<strong>The</strong> Lord is a man <strong>of</strong> war.<br />

Exodus ch. 15, v. 3<br />

Would to God we had died by the hand <strong>of</strong> the Lord in the land <strong>of</strong> Egypt, when we sat by the<br />

flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full.<br />

Exodus ch. 16, v. 3<br />

And God spake all these words, saying,<br />

I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out <strong>of</strong> the land <strong>of</strong> Egypt, out <strong>of</strong> the house <strong>of</strong><br />

bondage.<br />

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.<br />

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness <strong>of</strong> any thing that is in heaven<br />

above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:<br />

Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous<br />

God, visiting the iniquity <strong>of</strong> the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation <strong>of</strong><br />

them that hate me;<br />

And showing mercy unto thousands <strong>of</strong> them that love me, and keep my commandments.<br />

Thou shalt not take the name <strong>of</strong> the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him<br />

guiltless that taketh his name in vain.<br />

Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.<br />

Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:<br />

But the seventh day is the sabbath <strong>of</strong> the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou,<br />

nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy<br />

stranger that is within thy gates:<br />

For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the<br />

seventh day: wherefore the Lord blest the sabbath day, and hallowed it.<br />

Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy<br />

God giveth thee.
