23 “Three times each year all your men must come before the Master, the Lord, the God of Israel.
24 I will force out nations ahead of you. I will expand the borders of your land. You will go before the Lord your God three times each year. And at that time no one will try to take your land from you.
25 “Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to me with anything containing yeast. And do not leave any of the sacrifice of the Feast of Passover. It must not be left until the next morning.
26 “Bring the best first crops that you harvest from your ground. Bring those things to the Tent of the Lord your God.“You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
27 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write down these words. This is because with these words I have made an agreement with you and Israel.”
28 Moses stayed there with the Lord 40 days and 40 nights. During that time he did not eat food or drink water. And Moses wrote the words of the agreement—the Ten Commandments—on the stone tablets.
29 Then Moses came down from Mount Sinai. In his hands he was carrying the two stone tablets of the agreement. But Moses did not know that his face was shining because he had talked with the Lord.
