Deuteronomy 16 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 "Remember, in the month of Abib you must celebrate Passover to honor the Lord your God. It was that night in Abib when the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt.
2 You must go to the place the Lord your God will choose to be the home for his name. There you must offer the Passover sacrifice to honor the Lord. You must offer the cattle and goats.
3 Don't eat bread that has yeast in it with this sacrifice. You must eat unleavened bread for seven days. This bread is called 'Bread of Trouble.' It will help you remember the troubles you had in Egypt. Remember how quickly you had to leave that country. You must remember that day as long as you live.
4 There must be no yeast in anyone's house anywhere in the country for seven days. And all the meat you sacrifice on the evening of the first day must be eaten before morning.
5 "You must not sacrifice the Passover animal in any of the towns that the Lord your God gives you.
6 You must sacrifice the Passover animal only at the place that the Lord your God will choose to be the home for his name. There you must sacrifice the Passover animal in the evening when the sun goes down. This is the festival when you remember that God brought you out of Egypt.
7 You must cook the meal and eat it at the place the Lord your God will choose. The next morning you may go back home.
8 You must eat unleavened bread six days. On the seventh day you must not do any work. On this day the people will come together for a special meeting to honor the Lord your God.
9 "You must count seven weeks from the time you begin to harvest the grain.
10 Then celebrate the Festival of Weeks for the Lord your God. Do this by bringing him some special gift you want to bring. Decide how much to give by thinking about how much the Lord your God has blessed you.
11 Go to the place the Lord will choose to be the home for his name. You and your people should enjoy yourselves together there with the Lord your God. Take all your people with you�your sons, your daughters, and all your servants. And take the Levites, foreigners, orphans, and widows living in your towns.
12 Remember, you were slaves in Egypt. So be sure to obey these laws.
13 "Seven days after you have gathered your harvest in from your threshing floor and from your winepress, you should celebrate the Festival of Shelters.
14 Enjoy yourselves at this festival�you, your sons, your daughters, all your servants, and the Levites, foreigners, orphans, and widows living in your towns.
15 Celebrate this festival for seven days at the special place the Lord will choose. Do this to honor the Lord your God. The Lord your God blessed your harvest and all the work you did, so be very happy!
16 "Three times a year all your men must come to meet with the Lord your God at the special place he will choose. They must come for the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters. Everyone who comes to meet with the Lord must bring a gift.
17 Each man should give as much as he can. He should decide how much to give by thinking about how much the Lord has given him.
18 "Choose men to be judges and officers in every town that the Lord your God gives you. Every tribe must do this. And these men must be fair in judging the people.
19 You must always be fair. You must not favor some people over other people. You must not take money to change your mind in judgment. Money blinds the eyes of wise people and changes what a good person will say.
20 Goodness and Fairness! You must try very hard to be good and fair all the time. Then you will live and keep the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
21 "When you set up an altar for the Lord your God, you must not place beside the altar any of the wooden poles that honor the goddess Asherah.
22 You must not set up special stones for worshiping false gods. The Lord your God hates them.

3 Thou shalt eat H398 no H3808 leavened bread H2557 with H5921 it; seven H7651 days H3117 shalt thou eat H398 unleavened bread H4682 therewith, H5921 even the bread H3899 of affliction; H6040 for H3588 thou camest forth H3318 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 in haste: H2649 that H4616 thou mayest remember H2142 H853 the day H3117 when thou camest forth H3318 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 all H3605 the days H3117 of thy life. H2416

7 And thou shalt roast H1310 and eat H398 it in the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall choose: H977 and thou shalt turn H6437 in the morning, H1242 and go H1980 unto thy tents. H168

9 Seven H7651 weeks H7620 shalt thou number H5608 unto thee: begin H2490 to number H5608 the seven H7651 weeks H7620 from such time as thou beginnest H4480 H2490 to put the sickle H2770 to the corn. H7054
10 And thou shalt keep H6213 the feast H2282 of weeks H7620 unto the LORD H3068 thy God H430 with a tribute H4530 of a freewill offering H5071 of thine hand, H3027 which H834 thou shalt give H5414 unto the LORD thy God , according as H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath blessed H1288 thee:
11 And thou shalt rejoice H8055 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 thou, H859 and thy son, H1121 and thy daughter, H1323 and thy manservant, H5650 and thy maidservant, H519 and the Levite H3881 that H834 is within thy gates, H8179 and the stranger, H1616 and the fatherless, H3490 and the widow, H490 that H834 are among H7130 you , in the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath chosen H977 to place H7931 his name H8034 there. H8033
12 And thou shalt remember H2142 that H3588 thou wast H1961 a bondman H5650 in Egypt: H4714 and thou shalt observe H8104 and do H6213 H853 these H428 statutes. H2706
13 Thou shalt observe H6213 the feast H2282 of tabernacles H5521 seven H7651 days, H3117 after that thou hast gathered H622 in thy corn H4480 H1637 and thy wine H4480 H3342 :
14 And thou shalt rejoice H8055 in thy feast, H2282 thou, H859 and thy son, H1121 and thy daughter, H1323 and thy manservant, H5650 and thy maidservant, H519 and the Levite, H3881 the stranger, H1616 and the fatherless, H3490 and the widow, H490 that H834 are within thy gates. H8179
15 Seven H7651 days H3117 shalt thou keep a solemn feast H2287 unto the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 shall choose: H977 because H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall bless H1288 thee in all H3605 thine increase, H8393 and in all H3605 the works H4639 of thine hands, H3027 therefore thou shalt H1961 surely H389 rejoice. H8056
16 Three H7969 times H6471 in a year H8141 shall all H3605 thy males H2138 appear H7200 H853 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in the place H4725 which H834 he shall choose; H977 in the feast H2282 of unleavened bread, H4682 and in the feast H2282 of weeks, H7620 and in the feast H2282 of tabernacles: H5521 and they shall not H3808 appear H7200 H853 before H6440 the LORD H3068 empty: H7387
17 Every man H376 shall give as he is able H4979 H3027 , according to the blessing H1293 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 which H834 he hath given H5414 thee.
18 Judges H8199 and officers H7860 shalt thou make H5414 thee in all H3605 thy gates, H8179 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee , throughout thy tribes: H7626 and they shall judge H8199 H853 the people H5971 with just H6664 judgment. H4941
19 Thou shalt not H3808 wrest H5186 judgment; H4941 thou shalt not H3808 respect H5234 persons, H6440 neither H3808 take H3947 a gift: H7810 for H3588 a gift H7810 doth blind H5786 the eyes H5869 of the wise, H2450 and pervert H5557 the words H1697 of the righteous. H6662
20 That which is altogether just H6664 H6664 shalt thou follow, H7291 that H4616 thou mayest live, H2421 and inherit H3423 H853 the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee.
21 Thou shalt not H3808 plant H5193 thee a grove H842 of any H3605 trees H6086 near H681 unto the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 which H834 thou shalt make H6213 thee.
22 Neither H3808 shalt thou set thee up H6965 any image; H4676 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hateth. H8130
