1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto Jehovah thy God; for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
1 GUARDARÁS el mes de Abib, y harás pascua á Jehová tu Dios: porque en el mes de Abib te sacó Jehová tu Dios de Egipto de noche.
2 And thou shalt sacrifice the passover unto Jehovah thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Jehovah shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
2 Y sacrificarás la pascua á Jehová tu Dios, de las ovejas y de las vacas, en el lugar que Jehová escogiere para hacer habitar allí su nombre.
3 Thou 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 haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
3 No comerás con ella leudo; siete días comerás con ella pan por leudar, pan de aflicción, porque apriesa saliste de tierra de Egipto: para que te acuerdes del día en que saliste de la tierra de Egipto todos los días de tu vida.
4 And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrificest the first day at even, remain all night until the morning.
4 Y no se dejará ver levadura contigo en todo tu término por siete días; y de la carne que matares á la tarde del primer día, no quedará hasta la mañana.
5 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee;
5 No podrás sacrificar la pascua en ninguna de tus ciudades, que Jehová tu Dios te da;
6 but at the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
6 Sino en el lugar que Jehová tu Dios escogiere para hacer habitar allí su nombre, sacrificarás la pascua por la tarde á puesta del sol, al tiempo que saliste de Egipto:
7 And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.
7 Y la asarás y comerás en el lugar que Jehová tu Dios hubiere escogido; y por la mañana te volverás y restituirás á tu morada.
8 Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread; and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to Jehovah thy God; thou shalt do no work [therein].
8 Seis días comerás ázimos, y el séptimo día será solemnidad á Jehová tu Dios: no harás obra [en él].
9 Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: from the time thou beginnest to put the sickle to the standing grain shalt thou begin to number seven weeks.
9 Siete semanas te contarás: desde que comenzare la hoz en las mieses comenzarás á contarte las siete semanas.
10 And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto Jehovah thy God with a tribute of a freewill-offering of thy hand, which thou shalt give, according as Jehovah thy God blesseth thee:
10 Y harás la solemnidad de las semanas á Jehová tu Dios: de la suficiencia voluntaria de tu mano será lo que dieres, según Jehová tu Dios te hubiere bendecido.
11 and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are in the midst of thee, in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
11 Y te alegrarás delante de Jehová tu Dios, tú, y tu hijo, y tu hija, y tu siervo, y tu sierva, y el Levita que estuviere en tus ciudades, y el extranjero, y el huérfano, y la viuda, que estuvieren en medio de ti, en el lugar que Jehová tu Dios hubiere escogido para hacer habitar allí su nombre.
12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
12 Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en Egipto; por tanto guardarás y cumplirás estos estatutos.
13 Thou shalt keep the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in from thy threshing-floor and from thy winepress:
13 La solemnidad de las cabañas harás por siete días, cuando hubieres hecho la cosecha de tu era y de tu lagar.
14 and thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.
14 Y te alegrarás en tus solemnidades, tú, y tu hijo, y tu hija, y tu siervo, y tu sierva, y el Levita, y el extranjero, y el huérfano, y la viuda, que están en tus poblaciones.
15 Seven days shalt thou keep a feast unto Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah shall choose; because Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shalt be altogether joyful.
15 Siete días celebrarás solemnidad á Jehová tu Dios en el lugar que Jehová escogiere; porque te habrá bendecido Jehová tu Dios en todos tus frutos, y en toda obra de tus manos, y estarás ciertamente alegre.
16 Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles; and they shall not appear before Jehovah empty:
16 Tres veces cada un año parecerá todo varón tuyo delante de Jehová tu Dios en el lugar que él escogiere: en la solemnidad de los ázimos, y en la solemnidad de las semanas, y en la solemnidad de las cabañas. Y no parecerá vacío delante de Jehová:
17 every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee.
17 Cada uno con el don de su mano, conforme á la bendición de Jehová tu Dios, que te hubiere dado.
18 Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, according to thy tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.
18 Jueces y alcaldes te pondrás en todas tus ciudades que Jehová tu Dios te dará en tus tribus, los cuales juzgarán al pueblo con justo juicio.
19 Thou shalt not wrest justice: thou shalt not respect persons; neither shalt thou take a bribe; for a bribe doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
19 No tuerzas el derecho; no hagas acepción de personas, ni tomes soborno; porque el soborno ciega los ojos de los sabios, y pervierte las palabras de los justos.
20 That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and inherit the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
20 La justicia, la justicia seguirás, porque vivas y heredes la tierra que Jehová tu Dios te da.
21 Thou shalt not plant thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of Jehovah thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
21 No te plantarás bosque de ningún árbol cerca del altar de Jehová tu Dios, que tú te habrás hecho.
22 Neither shalt thou set thee up a pillar; which Jehovah thy God hateth.
22 Ni te levantarás estatua; lo cual aborrece Jehová tu Dios.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… the passover within any other of thy cities which the Lord God gives thee; but in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose that His name be called on there, thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, towards the setting of the sun."
… thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then return and offer thy gift." We are bound, therefore, to offer to God the first-fruits of His creation, as Moses also says, "Thou shalt not appear in the presence of the Lord thy God empty;" so that man, being accounted as grateful, by those things in which he has shown …
