6. For seven days you must eat unleavened bread and on the seventh day there is to be a festival to honour the Lord.
7. For seven days you must not eat any bread made with yeast; there must be no yeast or leavened bread anywhere in your land.
8. When the festival begins, explain to your sons that you do all this because of what the Lord did for you when you left Egypt.
9. This observance will be a reminder, like something tied on your hand or on your forehead; it will remind you to continue to recite and study the Law of the Lord, because the Lord brought you out of Egypt by his great power.
10. Celebrate this festival at the appointed time each year.
11. “The Lord will bring you into the land of the Canaanites, which he solemnly promised to you and your ancestors. When he gives it to you,
12. you must offer every firstborn male to the Lord. Every firstborn male of your animals belongs to the Lord,
13. but you must buy back from him every firstborn male donkey by offering a lamb in its place. If you do not want to buy back the donkey, break its neck. You must buy back every firstborn male child of yours.
