- Old Testament only (no New Testament). First printed 1844; the 1851 edition added the deuterocanonical books.
1 Observe the month of new [corn], and thou shalt sacrifice the passover to the Lord thy God; because in the month of new corn thou camest 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 to the Lord thy God, sheep and oxen in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to have his name called upon it.
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 not eat leaven with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened [bread] with it, bread of affliction, because ye came forth out of Egypt in haste; that ye may remember the day of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your 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 Leaven shall not be seen with thee in all thy borders for seven days, and there shall not be left of the flesh which thou shalt sacrifice at even on the first day 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 shalt not have power to sacrifice the passover in any of the cities, which the Lord thy God gives thee.
5 No podrás sacrificar la pascua en ninguna de tus ciudades, que Jehová tu Dios te da;
6 But in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, to have his name called there, thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even at the setting of the sun, at the time when thou camest 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 boil and roast and eat it in the place, which the Lord thy God shall choose; and thou shalt return in the morning, and go to thy house.
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 shalt thou eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a holiday, a feast to the Lord thy God: thou shalt not do in it any work, save what must be done by any one.
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 to thyself; when thou hast begun [to put] the sickle to the corn, thou shalt 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 to the Lord thy God, accordingly as thy hand has power in as many things as the Lord thy God shall give 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 the Lord thy God, thou and thy son, and thy daughter, thy man-servant and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow which dwells among you, in whatsoever place the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name should be called 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 servant in the land of Egypt, and thou shalt observe and do these commands.
12 Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en Egipto; por tanto guardarás y cumplirás estos estatutos.
13 Thou shalt keep for thyself the feast of tabernacles seven days, when thou gatherest in [thy produce] from thy corn-floor and thy wine-press.
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, thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow that is in thy cities.
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 to the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose for himself; and if the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all thy fruits, and in every work of thy hands, then thou shalt rejoice.
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 the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: thou shalt not appear before the Lord thy God 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 Each one according to his ability, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he has given thee.
17 Cada uno con el don de su mano, conforme á la bendición de Jehová tu Dios, que te hubiere dado.
18 Thou shalt make for thyself judges and officers in thy cities, which the Lord thy God gives thee in [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 they shall not wrest judgment, nor favour persons, nor receive a gift; for gifts 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 Thou shalt justly pursue justice, that ye may live, and go in and inherit the land which the Lord thy God gives thee.
20 La justicia, la justicia seguirás, porque vivas y heredes la tierra que Jehová tu Dios te da.
21 Thou shalt not plant for thyself a grove; thou shalt not plant for thyself any tree near the altar of thy God.
21 No te plantarás bosque de ningún árbol cerca del altar de Jehová tu Dios, que tú te habrás hecho.
22 Thou shalt not set up for thyself a pillar, which the Lord thy God hates.
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 …
