Deuteronomy 16

1Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the Yahuah your Elohim: for in the month of Abib the Yahuah your Elohim brought you forth out of Egypt by night. 2you shall therefore sacrifice the passover unto the Yahuah your Elohim, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the Yahuah shall choose to place his name there. 3you shall eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shall you eat unleavened bread therewith, the bread of affliction; for you camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that you mayest remember the day when you camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life. 4And there shall be no leavened bread seen with you in all your coast seven days; neither shall there of the flesh, which you sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all night until the morning. 5you mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of your gates, which the Yahuah your Elohim giveth you: 6But at the place which the Yahuah your Elohim shall choose to place his name in, there you shall sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you camest forth out of Egypt. 7And you shall roast and eat in the place which the Yahuah your Elohim shall choose: and you shall turn in the morning, and go unto your tents. 8Six days you shall eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day a solemn assembly to the Yahuah your Elohim: you shall do no work . 9Seven weeks shall you number unto you: begin to number the seven weeks from you beginnest the sickle to the corn. 10And you shall keep the feast of weeks unto the Yahuah your Elohim with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, which you shall give , according as the Yahuah your Elohim has blessed you: 11And you shall rejoice before the Yahuah your Elohim, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that within your gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that among you, in the place which the Yahuah your Elohim has chosen to place his name there. 12And you shall remember that you wast a bondman in Egypt: and you shall observe and do these statutes. 13you shall observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that you hast gathered in your corn and your wine: 14And you shall rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that within your gates. 15Seven days shall you keep a solemn feast unto the Yahuah your Elohim in the place which the Yahuah shall choose: because the Yahuah your Elohim shall bless you in all your increase, and in all the works of your hands, therefore you shall surely rejoice. 16Three times in a year shall all your males appear before the Yahuah your Elohim in the place which he shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the Yahuah empty: 17Every man as he is able, according to the blessing of the Yahuah your Elohim which he has given you. 18Judges and officers shall you make you in all your gates, which the Yahuah your Elohim giveth you, throughout your tribes: and they shall judge the people with just judgment. 19you shall not wrest judgment; you shall not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift does blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous. 20That which is altogether just shall you follow, that you mayest live, and inherit the land which the Yahuah your Elohim giveth you. 21you shall not plant you a grove of any trees near unto the altar of the Yahuah your Elohim, which you shall make you. 22Neither shall you set you up image; which the Yahuah your Elohim hateth.
