Deuteronomy 16:1–6

Observe the ^amonth of Abib, and keep the passover unto the Lord thy God: for ^bin the month of Abib the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. ²Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the Lord thy God, of the flock and ^cthe herd, ^din the place which the Lord shall choose to place his name there. ³Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in ^ehaste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life. ^4fAnd there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, ^gremain all night until the morning. ⁵Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee: ⁶but at the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover ^hat even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
