Exodus 12:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 This [a]month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be to you the first [b]month of the year.
3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month let every man take unto him a lamb, according to the house of the [c]fathers, a lamb for an house.
4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, he shall take his neighbor, which is next unto his house, according to the number of the persons: every one of you, according to his [d]eating shall make your count for the lamb.
