"Observe what I command you this day. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Per’izzites, the Hivites, and the Jeb’usites.
**[1]: ** Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither you go, lest it become a snare in the midst of you.
You shall tear down their altars, and break their pillars, and cut down their Ashe’rim
(for you shall worship no other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God),
lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and when they play the harlot after their gods and sacrifice to their gods and one invites you, you eat of his sacrifice,
and you take of their daughters for your sons, and their daughters play the harlot after their gods and make your sons play the harlot after their gods.
**[2]: **"You shall make for yourself no molten gods.
**[3]: **"The feast of unleavened bread you shall keep. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt.
**[4]: **All that opens the womb is mine, all your male cattle, the firstlings of cow and sheep.
The firstling of an ass you shall redeem with a lamb, or if you will not redeem it you shall break its neck. All the first-born of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
**[5]: **"Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.
**[6]: **And you shall observe the feast of weeks, the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.
**[7]: **Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel.
For I will cast out nations before you, and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land, when you go up to appear before the LORD your God three times in the year.
**[8]: **"You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left until the morning.
**[9]: **The first of the first fruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of the LORD your God.
**[10]: **You shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk."
And the LORD said to Moses, "Write these words; in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."
And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
