Exodus 13:12-16

12that thou shalt set apart unto Jehovah all that openeth the wombH7358, and every firstling which thou hast that cometh of a beast; the malesH2145 shall beH1961 Jehovah’s. 13And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeemH6299 with a lambH7716; and if thou wilt not redeemH6299 it, then thou shalt breakH6202 its neckH6202: and all the first-born of manH120 among thy sonsH1121 shalt thou redeemH6299. 14And it shall beH1961, when thy sonH1121 asketh thee in timeH4279 to come, sayingH559, What is this? that thou shalt sayH559 unto him, By strength of handH3027 Jehovah broughtH3318 us out from EgyptH4714, from the houseH1004 of bondage: 15and it came to pass, when PharaohH6547 would hardly let us goH7971, that Jehovah slewH2026 all the first-born in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both the first-born of manH120, and the first-born of beast: thereforeH3651 I sacrificeH2076 to Jehovah all that openeth the wombH7358, being malesH2145; but all the first-born of my sonsH1121 I redeemH6299. 16And it shall beH1961 for a signH226 upon thy handH3027, and for frontlets between thine eyesH5869: for by strength of handH3027 Jehovah broughtH3318 us forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714.
