Exo.|13:1|-|Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Exo.|13:2|-||1|Sanctify to Me all the |a|firstborn: Whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast, it is Mine.
Exo.|13:3|-|And Moses said to the people, |a|Remember this day on which you came out from Egypt, from the |b|slave house, for by |1c|strength of hand Jehovah |d|brought you out from this place; and nothing |e|leavened shall be eaten.
Exo.|13:4|-|On this day in the month of |1a|Abib you are going out.
Exo.|13:5|-|And when Jehovah brings you into the land of the |a|Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He |b|swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with |c|milk and honey, you shall observe this |d|service in this month:
Exo.|13:6|-|Seven days you shall eat |a|unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to Jehovah.
Exo.|13:7|-|Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days, and nothing leavened shall be seen with you, nor shall any leaven be seen with you in all your territory.
Exo.|13:8|-|And you shall tell your |a|son in that day, saying, It is because of what Jehovah did for me when I came out of Egypt.
Exo.|13:9|-|And it shall be for a |a|sign to you upon your hand and for a |1|memorial between your eyes, that the |2|law of Jehovah may be in your mouth; for with a mighty hand Jehovah brought you out of Egypt.
Exo.|13:10|-|You shall therefore |a|keep this statute at its appointed time from year to year.
Exo.|13:11|-|And when Jehovah brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as He swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,
Exo.|13:12|-|You shall set apart to Jehovah everything that |a|opens the womb and the first offspring of every beast which is yours; the males shall be Jehovah’s.
Exo.|13:13|-|And every |1|first offspring of a donkey you shall redeem with a |a|lamb; and if you do not redeem it, you shall break its neck. And every |1|firstborn male among your sons you shall |b|redeem.
Exo.|13:14|-|And when your |a|son asks you in time to come, saying, What is this? you shall say to him, By strength of hand Jehovah |b|brought us out from Egypt, from the |c|slave house.
Exo.|13:15|-|And when Pharaoh |a|hardened himself |b|against letting us go, Jehovah |c|slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast. Therefore I am one who sacrifices to Jehovah every male that opens the womb; and all the |d|firstborn of my sons I redeem.
Exo.|13:16|-|So it will be as a |a|sign upon your hand and as frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand Jehovah |b|brought us out of Egypt.
Exo.|13:17|-|Now when Pharaoh let the people go, God did not |1|lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Perhaps the people will change their minds when they see war and will |a|return to Egypt.
Exo.|13:18|-|Thus God led the people |1a|around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up arrayed for battle out of the land of Egypt.
Exo.|13:19|-|And Moses took the |1|bones of Joseph with him, for Joseph had made the children of Israel solemnly swear, saying, |a|God will surely visit you, and you shall bring my |b|bones up from here with you.
Exo.|13:20|-|And they journeyed from |a|Succoth and encamped in Etham on the edge of the wilderness.
Exo.|13:21|-|And Jehovah went before them by day in a pillar of |1a|cloud to lead them on the way and by night in a pillar of |1|fire to give them light, that they might go by day and by night.
Exo.|13:22|-|Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night departed from before the people.
