When you enter the land which the Lord will give you, as He has promised, you shall observe this rite.

And when your children say to you, ‘What does this rite mean to you?’

It shall be when the Lord brings you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall observe this rite in this month.
