16 ¶ Lè mwa Abib la va rive, se pou nou fete fèt delivrans lan pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, paske se yon jou lannwit konsa, nan mwa Abib la, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la.

Pou fèt delivrans lan, n'a ofri bèf, kabrit ak mouton pou yo touye pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kote li te chwazi pou yo adore l' la.

Lè n'ap manje vyann bèt nou touye pou mwen an, nou pa pou manje pen fèt ak ledven avè l'. Pandan sèt jou, n'a manje pen fèt san ledven, pen malere, paske se prese prese nou te soti kite peyi Lejip la. Konsa, n'a toujou chonje tout tray nou te pase jou nou t'ap soti kite peyi Lejip la.

Pandan sèt jou sa yo, pesonn nan peyi nou an pa gen dwa gen ledven lakay li. Epi nan vyann nou te ofri pou mwen nan aswè premye jou a, pa kite anyen pase nwit pou denmen maten.

Nou p'ap gen dwa touye bèt nou ofri pou delivrans lan nan ankenn lavil Seyè a va ban nou pou nou rete.

Se va sèlman kote Seyè a te chwazi pou fè sèvis pou li a n'a touye bèt delivrans lan nan aswè apre solèy fin kouche, paske se yon lè konsa nou te soti kite peyi Lejip.

N'a kwit vyann bèt nou te ofri a epi n'a manje l' kote Seyè a te chwazi a. Apre sa, nan maten, n'a vire do nou, n'a tounen lakay nou.

Pandan sis jou, n'a manje pen fèt san ledven. Sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini tout moun pou fè gwo sèvis pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Jou sa a, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay.

N'a konte sèt senmenn apre premye jou nou konmanse ranmase rekòt grenn nan jaden nou yo.

10 Apre sa, n'a fete Fèt Senmenn yo pou di Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mèsi. N'a pote ba li ofrann n'a vle dapre sa Seyè a va ban nou nan favè li.

11 N'a fè fèt devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kote li te chwazi pou fè sèvis pou li a, nou menm, pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo, domestik nou yo, fanm kou gason, ansanm ak moun Levi yo ak moun lòt nasyon yo, timoun ki san papa ak fanm vèv k'ap viv ansanm ak nou nan lavil kote nou rete a.

12 N'a toujou chonje nou menm tou yon lè nou te esklav nan peyi Lejip. Se poutèt sa n'a toujou obeyi tout lwa sa yo.

13 Lè n'a fin moulen grenn jaden nou yo, lè n'a fin kraze rezen nou yo, n'a fè fèt Joupa yo pandan sèt jou.

14 N'a pran kont plezi nou, nou menm, pitit gason ak pitit fi nou yo, ansanm ak moun Levi yo ak moun lòt nasyon yo, timoun ki san papa ak fanm vèv ki rete nan lavil kote nou ye a.

15 Pandan sèt jou, n'a fè fèt pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kote li menm li te chwazi a, paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te beni nou nan tout rekòt nou yo, ak nan tout travay nou yo pou nou te ka kontan nèt ale.

16 Twa fwa chak lanne, pou fèt Delivrans lan, pou fèt Premye Rekòt la ak pou fèt Joupa yo, chak gason nan peyi a va vin adore Seyè a, Bondye nou an, kote Seyè a te chwazi pou fè sèvis pou li a. Yo p'ap gen dwa vini de men vid.

17 Men, yo chak va bay kichòy, dapre benediksyon Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va ba yo.

18 ¶ N'a mete jij ak majistra nan chak lavil Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va ban nou pou dirije tout branch fanmi nou yo. Y'a fè travay yo san patipri.

19 Piga yo fè ankenn lenjistis. Piga yo gade sou figi moun pou jije yo. Piga yo pran lajan anba nan men pesonn paske lajan konsa ka anpeche menm moun ki gen konprann wè klè, li ka fè nou kondannen moun inonsan.

20 Pa janm kite anyen anpeche nou rann jistis jan nou dwe fè l' la. Konsa, n'a kapab viv, n'a kapab pran peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou an pou nou.

21 Piga nou janm plante ankenn poto Achera ni ankenn pyebwa repozwa pou sèvi nou zidòl bò kote lòtèl n'ap bati pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an.

22 Piga nou janm mete wòch kanpe pou fè sèvis zidòl. Seyè a pa vle wè bagay konsa menm.

The Passover(A)

16 Observe the month of Aviv(B) and celebrate the Passover(C) of the Lord your God, because in the month of Aviv he brought you out of Egypt by night. Sacrifice as the Passover to the Lord your God an animal from your flock or herd at the place the Lord will choose as a dwelling for his Name.(D) Do not eat it with bread made with yeast, but for seven days eat unleavened bread, the bread of affliction,(E) because you left Egypt in haste(F)—so that all the days of your life you may remember the time of your departure from Egypt.(G) Let no yeast be found in your possession in all your land for seven days. Do not let any of the meat you sacrifice on the evening(H) of the first day remain until morning.(I)

You must not sacrifice the Passover in any town the Lord your God gives you except in the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name. There you must sacrifice the Passover in the evening, when the sun goes down, on the anniversary[a](J) of your departure from Egypt. Roast(K) it and eat it at the place the Lord your God will choose. Then in the morning return to your tents. For six days eat unleavened bread and on the seventh day hold an assembly(L) to the Lord your God and do no work.(M)

The Festival of Weeks(N)

Count off seven weeks(O) from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain.(P) 10 Then celebrate the Festival of Weeks to the Lord your God by giving a freewill offering in proportion to the blessings the Lord your God has given you. 11 And rejoice(Q) before the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name(R)—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, the Levites(S) in your towns, and the foreigners,(T) the fatherless and the widows living among you.(U) 12 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt,(V) and follow carefully these decrees.

The Festival of Tabernacles(W)

13 Celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles for seven days after you have gathered the produce of your threshing floor(X) and your winepress.(Y) 14 Be joyful(Z) at your festival—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, and the Levites, the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns. 15 For seven days celebrate the festival to the Lord your God at the place the Lord will choose. For the Lord your God will bless you in all your harvest and in all the work of your hands, and your joy(AA) will be complete.

16 Three times a year all your men must appear(AB) before the Lord your God at the place he will choose: at the Festival of Unleavened Bread,(AC) the Festival of Weeks and the Festival of Tabernacles.(AD) No one should appear before the Lord empty-handed:(AE) 17 Each of you must bring a gift in proportion to the way the Lord your God has blessed you.

Judges

18 Appoint judges(AF) and officials for each of your tribes in every town the Lord your God is giving you, and they shall judge the people fairly.(AG) 19 Do not pervert justice(AH) or show partiality.(AI) Do not accept a bribe,(AJ) for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the innocent. 20 Follow justice and justice alone, so that you may live and possess the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Worshiping Other Gods

21 Do not set up any wooden Asherah pole(AK) beside the altar you build to the Lord your God,(AL) 22 and do not erect a sacred stone,(AM) for these the Lord your God hates.
