"Commemorate this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the land
of slavery, because the LORD brought you out of it with a mighty hand.
Eat nothing containing yeast. Today, in the month of Abib, you are leaving.
When the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites,
Hivites and Jebusites—the land he swore to your forefathers to give you,
a land flowing with milk and honey—you are to observe this ceremony in
this month: 6 For seven days eat bread made without yeast and on the seventh
day hold a festival to the LORD. Eat unleavened bread during those seven
days; nothing with yeast in it is to be seen among you, nor shall any
yeast be seen anywhere within your borders. On that day tell your son,
'I do this because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.'
This observance will be for you like a sign on your hand and a reminder
on your forehead that the law of the LORD is to be on your lips. For the
LORD brought you out of Egypt with his mighty hand. You must keep this
ordinance at the appointed time year after year.
"Acknowledge
and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on
the earth below. There is no other. 40 Keep his decrees and commands,
which I am giving you today, so that it may go well with you and your
children after you and that you may live long in the land the LORD your
God gives you for all time."
"So be careful to do what the LORD your God has commanded you; do
not turn aside to the right or to the left. 33 Walk in all the way that
the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper
and prolong your days in the land that you will possess."
"Fear
the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his name. Do
not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; for the LORD
your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against
you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land."
"The
LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were
more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples."
"You
may say to yourself, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced
this wealth for me." But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who
gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant,
which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today."
"If
you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and worship and
bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be
destroyed. 20 Like the nations the LORD destroyed before you, so you will
be destroyed for not obeying the LORD your God."
"See,
I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse- the blessing if
you obey the commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today;
the curse if you disobey the commands of the LORD your God and turn from
the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have
not known."
