Deuteronomy 16:2–8

²Sacrifice to the Lord your God a Passover animal from the herd or flock in the place where the Lord chooses to have his name dwell.^{k 3}Do not eat leavened bread with it.^l For seven days you are to eat unleavened bread with it, the bread of hardship—because you left the land of Egypt in a hurry^m—so that you may remember for the rest of your life the day you left the land of Egypt. ⁴No yeast is to be found anywhere in your territory for seven days,ⁿ and none of the meat you sacrifice in the evening of the first day is to remain until morning.^{o 5}You are not to sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns the Lord your God is giving you. ⁶Sacrifice the Passover animal only at the place where the Lord your God chooses to have his name dwell. Do this in the evening as the sun sets at the same time of day you departed from Egypt. ⁷You are to cook and eat it in the place the Lord your God chooses, and you are to return to your tents in the morning. ⁸Eat unleavened bread for six days. On the seventh day there is to be a solemn assembly to the Lord your God; do not do any work.
