Exodus 12:31–39

³¹That same night the king sent for Moses and Aaron and said, “Get out, you and your Israelites! Leave my country; go and worship the Lord, as you asked. ³²Take your sheep, goats, and cattle, and leave. Also pray for a blessing on me.”

³³The Egyptians urged the people to hurry and leave the country; they said, “We will all be dead if you don’t leave.” ³⁴So the people filled their baking pans with unleavened dough, wrapped them in clothing, and carried them on their shoulders. ^35*The Israelites had done as Moses had said, and had asked the Egyptians for gold and silver jewellery and for clothing. ^36*The Lord made the Egyptians respect the people and give them what they asked for. In this way the Israelites carried away the wealth of the Egyptians.

The Israelites Leave Egypt

³⁷The Israelites set out on foot from Rameses for Sukkoth. There were about six hundred thousand men, not counting women and children. ³⁸A large number of other people and many sheep, goats, and cattle also went with them. ³⁹They baked unleavened bread from the dough that they had brought out of Egypt, for they had been driven out of Egypt so suddenly that they did not have time to get their food ready or to prepare leavened dough.
