New Century Version

Exodus 13:7-12 New Century Version (NCV)

7. So for seven days you must not eat any bread made with yeast. There must be no bread made with yeast anywhere in your land.

8. On that day you should tell your son: ‘We are having this feast because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.’

9. This feast will help you remember, like a mark on your hand or a reminder on your forehead. This feast will remind you to speak the Lord’s teachings, because the Lord used his great power to bring you out of Egypt.

10. So celebrate this feast every year at the right time.

11. “And when the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanites, the land he promised to give you and your ancestors,

12. you must give him every firstborn male. Also every firstborn male animal must be given to the Lord.
