Exodus 23:10-19 - Regulations Regarding Work And Festivals

¹⁰ And six years, shalt thou sow thy land, - and shalt gather the yield thereof; ¹¹ but the seventh year, shalt thou let it rest and be still so shall the needy of thy people eat, and what they leave, shall the wild-beast of the field eat, - in like manner, shalt thou deal with thy vineyard with thine oliveyard.

¹² Six days, shalt thou do thy work, but on the seventh day, shalt thou keep sabbath, - that thine ox may rest and thine ass, and that the son of thy handmaid and the sojourner may be refreshed.

¹³ And, in all that I have said unto thee, shalt thou take heed to thyself, - and the name of other gods, shalt thou not mention, it shall not be heard upon thy mouth.

¹⁴ Three times, shalt thou keep festival to me, in the year. ¹⁵ The festival of unleavened cakes, shalt thou keep, - seven days, shalt thou eat unleavened cakes, as I commanded thee at the appointed time of the month Abib; for, therein, camest thou forth out of Egypt, - and they shall not see my face, empty-handed. ¹⁶ And the festival of harvest with the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou shalt sow in the field, And the festival of ingathering - at the outgoing of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field. ¹⁷ Three times in the year, shall all thy males see the face of the Lord, Yahweh.

¹⁸ Thou shalt not offer with anything leavened, the blood of my sacrifice, - neither shall the fat of my festival-sacrifice remain until morning.

¹⁹ The beginning of the firstfruits of thy ground, shalt thou bring into the house of Yahweh thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of its dam.
