Exodus 34:11-23 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

11. Observe that which I command you today. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

12. Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare amongst you;

13. but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherah poles;

14. for you shall worship no other god; for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

15. “Don’t make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice;

16. and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods.

17. “You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.

18. “You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt.

19. “All that opens the womb is mine; and all your livestock that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep.

20. You shall redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb. If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before me empty.

21. “Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in ploughing time and in harvest you shall rest.

22. “You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year’s end.

23. Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
