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 outH3318 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 everyH3605 firstbornH6363 of a wombH7358, and everyH3605 firstbornH6363 offspringH7698 of an animalH929 that you ownH1961; the malesH2145 belong to the LordH3068. 13But 11everyH3605 firstbornH6363 of a donkeyH2543 you shall redeemH6299 with a lambH7716, but ifH518 you do not redeemH6299 it, then you shall breakH6202 its neckH6202; and 12everyH3605 13firstbornH1060 among your sonsH1121 you shall redeemH6299. 1414And it shall be whenH3588 your sonH1121 asksH7592 you inH4279 timeH4279 toH4279 comeH4279, sayingH559, ‘WhatH4100 is thisH2088?’ then you shall sayH559 to him, ‘15With 16a powerfulH2392 handH3027 the LordH3068 broughtH3318 us outH3318 of EgyptH4714, from the houseH1004 of 17slaveryH5650. 15And it cameH1961 aboutH1961, whenH3588 PharaohH6547 wasH7185 stubbornH7185 about lettingH7971 us goH7971, that the 18LordH3068 putH2026 toH2026 deathH2026 everyH3605 firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from humanH120 firstbornsH1060 to animalH929 firstbornsH1060. ThereforeH5921H3651, I sacrificeH2076 to the LordH3068 the malesH2145, everyH3605 firstbornH1060 of a wombH7358, but everyH3605 firstbornH1060 of my sonsH1121 I redeemH6299.’ 16So 19it shall 20serveH1961 as a signH226 on your handH3027 and as 21phylacteriesH2903 22on your foreheadH996H5869, for with 23a powerfulH2392 handH3027 the LordH3068 broughtH3318 us outH3318 of EgyptH4714.”
