Tree Of Life Version

Exodus 34:10-21 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

10. Then He said, “I am cutting a covenant. Before all your people I will do wonders, such as have not been done in all the earth, or in any nation. All the people you are among will see the work of Adonai—for what I am going to do with you will be awesome!

11. Obey what I am commanding you today. Behold, I am going to drive out the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites before you.

12. Watch yourself, and make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, or they will become a snare among you.

13. Instead you must break down their ­altars, smash their pillars and cut down their Asherah poles.

14. For you are to bow down to no other god, because Adonai is jealous for His Name—He is a jealous God.

15. “See that you do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land. Otherwise when they prostitute themselves with their gods and sacrifice to their gods, someone will invite you, and you will eat from their sacrifice.

16. Do not take their daughters for your sons, for their daughters will prostitute themselves with their own gods, and cause your sons to prostitute themselves with their gods.

17. “You are not to make for yourselves metal gods.

18. “You are to keep the Feast of Matzot. For seven days you are eat matzot , as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Aviv, for in the month Aviv you came out from Egypt.

19. “Every firstborn of the womb is Mine, and from all your cattle you are to sanctify the males, the firstborn of the ox and sheep.

20. A firstborn donkey you are to redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then you are to break its neck. You must redeem all your firstborn sons. No one should appear before Me empty-handed.

21. “For six days you will work, but on the seventh day you will rest. During plowing time and harvest you must rest.
