12. Watch yourself so that you make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it become a snare in your midst.
13. But you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and cut down their Asherah poles
14. (for you shall not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God),
15. lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they prostitute themselves with their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and someone invites you to eat of his sacrifice.
16. And then you take of their daughters for your sons, and their daughters prostitute themselves after their gods. They will make your sons prostitute themselves after their gods.
17. You shall make no molded gods for yourselves.
18. You shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, in the month of Aviv, for in the month of Aviv you came out of Egypt.
19. Every firstborn of the womb belongs to Me, and every firstborn male among your livestock, whether ox or sheep.
20. But you must redeem with a lamb the firstborn of a donkey, and if you fail to redeem him, then you must break his neck. You must redeem all the firstborn of your sons.No one may appear before Me empty-handed.
21. You shall work six days, but on the seventh day you must rest. Even at the time of plowing and harvest you must rest.
22. You must observe the Feast of Weeks, the first fruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year.
23. Three times in the year all your males must appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
24. For I will drive out the nations before you and enlarge your borders. No man will covet your land when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year.
25. You must not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leaven, nor is the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover to be left until the following morning.
26. The first of the first fruits of your land you must bring to the house of the Lord your God.You must not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
27. Then the Lord said to Moses: Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.
