Exodus 13:2-11

2 “^aSanctify to Me every firstborn, the first ¹offspring of every womb among the sons of Israel, both of man and beast; it belongs to Me.”

The Feast of Unleavened Bread

3 And Moses said to the people, “^aRemember this day in which you went out from Egypt, from the house of ¹slavery; for ^bby a strong hand Yahweh brought you out from this place. ^cAnd nothing leavened shall be eaten. 4 This day, in the ^amonth of Abib, you are going out. 5 And it shall be when Yahweh ^abrings you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which ^bHe swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, ^cthat you shall ¹do this service in this month. 6 For ^aseven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to Yahweh. 7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and ^anothing leavened shall be seen ¹among you, nor shall any leaven be seen ¹among you in all your borders. 8 ^aAnd you shall tell your son on that day, saying, ‘It is because of what Yahweh did for me when I came out of Egypt.’ 9 And ^ait will be as a sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the law of Yahweh may be in your mouth; for with ^ba strong hand Yahweh brought you out of Egypt. 10 Therefore, you shall ^akeep this statute at its appointed time from ¹year to year.
11 “And it will be when ^aYahweh brings you to the land of the Canaanite, as ^bHe swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,

Exodus 13:11-16

11 “And it will be when ^aYahweh brings you to the land of the Canaanite, as ^bHe swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you, 12 ^aand you shall ¹devote to Yahweh the first ²offspring of every womb and ³the first offspring of every beast that you own; the males belong to Yahweh. 13 But ^aevery first ¹offspring of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and ^bevery firstborn of man among your sons you shall redeem. 14 ^aAnd it will be when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ then you shall say to him, ‘^bWith a strong hand Yahweh brought us out of Egypt, from the house of ¹slavery. 15 And it happened, when Pharaoh hardened his heart with stiffness about letting us go, that ^aYahweh killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast. Therefore, I sacrifice to Yahweh the males, the first ¹offspring of every womb, but every firstborn of my sons I redeem.’ 16 So ^ait will be as a sign on your hand and as ¹phylacteries between your eyes, for with a strong hand Yahweh brought us out of Egypt.”

Deuteronomy 6:4-9

4 “^aHear, O Israel! ¹Yahweh is our God, ^bYahweh is one! 5 ^aYou shall love Yahweh your God ^bwith all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 ^aThese words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. 7 ^aYou shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall speak of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. 8 ^aYou shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as ¹phylacteries between your eyes. 9 ^aYou shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

Deuteronomy 11:13-21

13 “And it will be that, ^aif you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, ^bto love Yahweh your God and to serve Him ^cwith all your heart and all your soul, 14 that ¹^aI, Yahweh, will give the rain for your land in its season, the ²^bearly and ³late rains, that you may gather in your grain and your new wine and your oil. 15 ^aAnd ¹I will give ²grass in your fields for your cattle, and ^byou will eat and be satisfied. 16 ¹^aBeware lest your hearts be deceived, and you turn away and serve other gods and worship them, 17 and ^athe anger of Yahweh will be kindled against you, and He will ^bshut up the heavens ^cso that there will be no rain and the ground will not yield its fruit; and ^dyou will perish quickly from the good land which Yahweh is giving you.
18 “^aYou shall therefore place these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as ¹phylacteries between your eyes. 19 ^aAnd you shall teach them to your sons, speaking of them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road and when you lie down and when you rise up. 20 ^aAnd you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21 so that ^ayour days and the days of your sons may be multiplied on the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as ¹^blong as the heavens remain above the earth.
