¹⁰“ ‘And six years you will sow your land and gather its yield. ¹¹But the seventh you will let it rest and leave it fallow, and the poor of your people will eat, and their remainder the animals^j of the field will eat. You will do likewise for your vineyard and for your olive trees.

¹²“ ‘Six days you will do your work, but on the seventh day you will stop so that your ox and your donkey will rest and the son of your slave woman and the alien will be refreshed.

¹³“ ‘And you will be attentive to all that I have said to you, and you will not profess^k the name of other gods; it will not be heard in your mouth.

¹⁴“ ‘Three times in the year you will hold a festival for me. ¹⁵You will keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread; for seven days you will eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you at the appointed time, the month of Abib, because in it you came out from Egypt, and no one will^l appear before me empty-handed. ¹⁶And you will keep the Feast of Harvest, with the firstfruits of your work, what you sow in the field. And you will keep the Feast of Harvest Gathering when the year goes out, when you gather your work from the field. ¹⁷Three times in the year all your men will appear before the Lord Yahweh.

¹⁸“ ‘You will not sacrifice the blood of my sacrifice together with food with yeast, and you will not leave the fat of my feast overnight until morning.
