9And 1it shall 2serveH1961 as a signH226 to you on your handH3027, and as a reminderH2146 3on your foreheadH996H5869, that the lawH8451 of the LordH3068 may be in your mouthH6310; for with 4a powerfulH2389 handH3027 the LordH3068 broughtH3318 you out of EgyptH4714. 10Therefore, you shall 5keepH8104 thisH2088 ordinanceH2708 at its appointedH4150 timeH4150 from 6yearH3117 to yearH3117.

11“Now whenH3588 7the LordH3068 bringsH935 you to the landH776 of the CanaaniteH3669, as 8He sworeH7650 to you and to your fathersH1, and givesH5414 it to you, 129you shall 10devoteH5674 to the LordH3068 the firstH6363 11offspringH6363 of everyH3605 wombH7358, and 12the firstH6363 offspringH6363 of everyH3605 beastH929 that you ownH1961; the malesH2145 belong to the LordH3068. 13But 13everyH3605 firstH6363 14offspringH6363 of a donkeyH2543 you shall redeemH6299 with a lambH7716, but ifH518 you do not redeemH6299 it, then you shall breakH6202 its neckH6202; and 15everyH3605 firstbornH1060 of manH120 among your sonsH1121 you shall redeemH6299. 1416And it shall be whenH3588 your sonH1121 asksH7592 you in timeH4279 to comeH4279, sayingH559, ‘WhatH4100 is thisH2088?’ then you shall sayH559 to him, ‘17With a 18powerfulH2392 handH3027 the LordH3068 broughtH3318 us out of EgyptH4714, from the houseH1004 of 19slaveryH5650. 15It cameH1961 about, whenH3588 PharaohH6547 was stubbornH7185 about lettingH7971 us goH7971, that the 20LordH3068 killedH2026 everyH3605 firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, bothH4480 the firstbornH1060 of manH120 and the firstbornH1060 of beastH929. ThereforeH5921H3651, I sacrificeH2076 to the LordH3068 the malesH2145, the firstH6363 21offspringH6363 of everyH3605 wombH7358, but everyH3605 firstbornH1060 of my sonsH1121 I redeemH6299.’ 16So 22it shall 23serveH1961 as a signH226 on your handH3027 and as 24phylacteriesH2903 25on your foreheadH996H5869, for with a 26powerfulH2392 handH3027 the LordH3068 broughtH3318 us out of EgyptH4714.”
