Exodus 12:43-49
New American Standard Bible 1995
43 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the ordinance of (A)the Passover: no [a](B)foreigner is to eat of it; 44 but every man’s (C)slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. 45 (D)A sojourner or a hired servant shall not eat of it. 46 It is to be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring forth any of the flesh outside of the house, (E)nor are you to break any bone of it. 47 (F)All the congregation of Israel are to [b]celebrate this. 48 But (G)if a [c]stranger sojourns with you, and [d]celebrates the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to [e]celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 49 [f](H)The same law shall [g]apply to the native as to the [h]stranger who sojourns among you.”

Passover Restrictions
43 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “These are the regulations for the Passover meal:(A)
“No foreigner(B) may eat it. 44 Any slave you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised(C) him, 45 but a temporary resident or a hired worker(D) may not eat it.
46 “It must be eaten inside the house; take none of the meat outside the house. Do not break any of the bones.(E) 47 The whole community of Israel must celebrate it.
48 “A foreigner residing among you who wants to celebrate the Lord’s Passover must have all the males in his household circumcised; then he may take part like one born in the land.(F) No uncircumcised(G) male may eat it. 49 The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner(H) residing among you.”
