16 Keep the month of Abib, and celebrate the passover to Jehovah thy God; for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.

² And thou shalt sacrifice the passover to Jehovah thy God, of the flock and of the herd, in the place which Jehovah will choose to cause his name to dwell there.

³ Thou shalt eat no leavened bread along with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread with it, 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.

⁴ And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst at even on the first day, be left over night until the morning.—

⁵ Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover in one of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee;

⁶ but at the place that Jehovah thy God will 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 time that thou camest forth out of Egypt.

⁷ And thou shalt cook and eat it at the place which Jehovah thy God will choose; and in the morning shalt thou turn and go unto thy tents.

2 If then [there be] any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any bowels and compassions,

³ [let] nothing [be] in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the other as more excellent than themselves;

⁴ regarding not each his own [qualities], but each those of others also.

⁵ For let this mind be in you which [was] also in Christ Jesus;

⁶ who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God;

⁷ but emptied himself, taking a bondman's form, taking his place in [the] likeness of men;

⁸ and having been found in figure as a man, humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and [that the] death of [the] cross.

⁹ Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and granted him a name, that which is above every name,

¹⁰ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly and earthly and infernal [beings],

¹¹ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord to God [the] Father's glory.
