19. Every first offspring is mine. That includes all your male livestock, the oldest offspring of cows and sheep.

20. But a donkey’s oldest offspring you may ransom with a sheep. Or if you don’t ransom it, you must break its neck. You should ransom all of your oldest sons.No one should appear before me empty-handed.

21. You should do your work for six days, but on the seventh day you should rest. Even during plowing or harvesttime you should rest.

22. You should observe the Festival of Weeks, for the early produce of the wheat harvest, and the Gathering Festival at the end of the year.

23. All your males should appear three times a year before the Lord God, Israel’s God.
