These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 16

 Observe the month of Green Ears (Abib), and keep the Passover to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym): for in the month of Green Ears (Abib), I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) brought you forth out of Double Straights (Egypt) by night.

 

2 You shall therefore sacrifice the Passover to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym), of the flock and the herd, in the place which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall choose to place His name there.

 

3 You shall eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shall you eat unleavened bread therewith, the bread of affliction; for you came forth out of the land of Double Straights (Egypt) in have: that you may remember the day when you came forth out of the land of Double Straights (Egypt) all the days of your life.

 

4 There shall be no leavened bread seen with you in all your land seven days; neither shall there anything of the flesh, which you sacrificed the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.

 

5 You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your gates, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) gives you:

 

6 But at the place which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) shall choose to place His name in, there you shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you came forth out of Double Straights (Egypt).

 

7 You shall roast and eat it in the place which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) shall choose: and you shall turn in the morning, and go to your tents.

 

8 Six days you shall eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym): you shall do no work therein.

 

9 Count seven weeks from the time you begin to put the sickle to the grain.

 

10 Then you shall keep the feast of weeks to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, which you shall give to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym), according to as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) has blessed you:

 

11 You shall rejoice before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym), you, your son, your daughter, your manservant, your maidservant, the Child of Joined To (Levite) that is within your gates, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that are among you, in the place which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) has chosen to place His name there.

 

12 You shall remember that you were a bondman in Double Straights (Egypt): and you shall observe and do these statutes.

 

13 You shall observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that, you have gathered in your corn and your wine:

 

14 You shall rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Child of Joined To (Levite), the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within your gates.

 

15 Seven days shall you keep a solemn feast to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) in the place which the Lord shall choose: because I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) shall bless you in all your increase, and in all the works of your hands, therefore you shall surely rejoice.

 

16 Three times in a year shall all your males appear before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) in the place which He shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) empty:

 

17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) which He has given you.

 

18 Appoint judges and officers to sit in all your gates, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) gives you, throughout your tribes: and they shall judge the people with just judgment.

 

19 You shall not pervert justice; you shall not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift blinds the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

 

20 That which is altogether just you shall follow, that you may live, and inherit the land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) gives you.

 

21 You shall not plant you a grove of any trees near to the altar of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym), which you shall make for yourselves.

 

22 Neither shall you set you up any image; which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) hates.
