19
All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the L
ORD
thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
20
Thou shalt eat
it
before the L
ORD
thy God year by year in the place which the L
ORD
shall choose,
thou and thy household.
21
And if there be
any
blemish therein,
as if it be
lame, or blind,
or have
any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the L
ORD
thy God.
22
Thou shalt eat it within thy
gates: the unclean and the clean
person shall eat it
alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
23
Only
thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.
CHAPTER 16
Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the L
ORD
thy God: for in the month of Abib
the L
ORD
thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
2
Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the
passover unto the L
ORD
thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the L
ORD
shall choose
to place his name there.
3
Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat
unleavened bread therewith,
even
the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of
Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt
all the days of thy life.
4
And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven
days; neither shall there
any thing
of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain
all night until the morning.
5
Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which
the L
ORD
thy God giveth thee:
6
But at the place which the L
ORD
thy God shall choose to place his
name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season
that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
7
And thou shalt roast and eat
it
in the place which the L
ORD
thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.
8
Six days thou
shalt eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day
shall be
a solemn assembly to the L
ORD
thy
God: thou shalt do no work
therein.
9
Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the seven weeks from
such time
as
thou beginnest
to put
the sickle to the corn.
10
And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the
L
ORD
thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand, which thou shalt give
unto the
L
ORD
thy God,
according as the L
ORD
thy God hath blessed thee:
11
And thou shalt rejoice before
the L
ORD
thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant,
and the Levite that
is
within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that
are
among you, in the place which the L
ORD
thy God hath chosen to place his name there.
12
And thou
shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
13
Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy
corn and thy wine:
14
And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and
thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow,
that
are
within thy gates.
15
Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the L
ORD
thy God in
