5 The Lord promised your ancestors that he would bring you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites. It is a land rich with milk and honey.Each year during the month of Abib, celebrate these events in the following way:
6 for seven days you are to eat bread made without yeast, and on the seventh day you are to celebrate a festival in honour of the Lord.
7 During those seven days, you must not eat anything made with yeast or even have yeast anywhere near your homes.
8 Then on the seventh day you must explain to your children that you do this because the Lord brought you out of Egypt.
9 This celebration will be like wearing a sign on your hand or on your forehead, because then you will pass on to others the teaching of the Lord, whose mighty power brought you out of Egypt.
10 Celebrate this festival each year at the same time.
11 The Lord will give you the land of the Canaanites, just as he promised you and your ancestors.
