1. “Honour the Lord your God by celebrating Passover in the month of Abib; it was on a night in that month that he rescued you from Egypt.
2. Go to the one place of worship and slaughter there one of your sheep or cattle for the Passover meal to honour the Lord your God.
3. When you eat this meal, do not eat bread prepared with yeast. For seven days you are to eat bread prepared without yeast, as you did when you had to leave Egypt in such a hurry. Eat this bread — it will be called the bread of suffering — so that as long as you live you will remember the day you came out of Egypt, that place of suffering.
4. For seven days no one in your land is to have any yeast in the house; and the meat of the animal killed on the evening of the first day must be eaten that same night.
5-6. “Slaughter the Passover animals at the one place of worship — and nowhere else in the land that the Lord your God will give you. Do it at sunset, the time of day when you left Egypt.
7. Boil the meat and eat it at the one place of worship; and the next morning return home.
8. For the next six days you are to eat bread prepared without yeast, and on the seventh day assemble to worship the Lord your God, and do no work on that day.
9. “Count seven weeks from the time that you begin to harvest the corn,
10. and then celebrate the Harvest Festival, to honour the Lord your God, by bringing him a freewill offering in proportion to the blessing he has given you.
11. Be joyful in the Lord's presence, together with your children, your servants, and the Levites, foreigners, orphans, and widows who live in your towns. Do this at the one place of worship.
