Ezra 6:19-21

New American Standard Bible 1995

The Passover Observed

^19 (A)The exiles observed the Passover on ^(B)the fourteenth of the first month. ^20 (C)For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together; all of them were pure. Then ^(D)they slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, both for their brothers the priests and for themselves. ²¹ The sons of Israel who returned from exile and ^(E)all those who had separated themselves from ^(F)the impurity of the nations of the land to join them, to seek the Lord God of Israel, ate the Passover.
