Exodus 34:17-26

171You shall not make for yourself any gods cast in metal.

18“You shall keep 2the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For 3seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, 4as I commanded you, at the appointed time in the 5month of Abib; for in the month of Abib you came out of Egypt.

19“6The 7firstborn from every womb belongs to Me, and all your male livestock, the 8firstborn from 9cattle and sheep. 2010You shall redeem with a lamb the firstborn from a donkey; and if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem 11all the firstborn of your sons. 1213None are to appear before Me empty-handed.

21“You shall work 14six days, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during plowing time and harvest you shall rest. 22And you shall celebrate 15the Feast of Weeks, that is, the first fruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year. 2316Three times a year all your males are to appear before the Lord 17God, the God of Israel. 24For I will 1819drive out nations from you and enlarge your borders, and no one will covet your land when you go up three times a year to appear before the Lord your God.

25“20You shall not 21offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread, 22nor is the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover to 23be left over until morning.

26“You shall bring 24the very first of the first fruits of your soil into the house of the Lord your God.

“You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
