You will have the special supper of bread without yeast. For seven days you are to eat bread without yeast at the time I tell you in the month of Abib. For you came out of Egypt during this month. And no one will come before Me with nothing in his hands.

16 « احفَظْ أيضاً عِيدَ حَصادِ أوّلِ غَلّاتِ تَعَبِكَ مِنْ حَقلِكَ. وَتَحفَظُ عِيدَ الجَمْعِ فِي نِهايَةِ السَّنَةِ، حِينَ تَجمَعُ غَلّاتِ تَعَبِكَ مِنَ الحَقلِ.

“Do not give the blood of My gift of worship with bread made with yeast. And the fat of My special supper is not to be kept all night until morning.

“See, I am sending an angel before you to keep you safe on the way. He will bring you to the place I have made ready.

Listen to him and obey his voice. Do not turn against him, for he will not forgive your sins, because My name is in him.

22 ل َكِنْ إنْ أطَعْتَهُ، وَعَمِلْتَ كُلَّ ما أقُولُهُ لَكَ، فَإنِّي سَأكُونُ عَدُوّاً لِأعدائِكَ، وَسَأُقاوِمُ مُقاوِمِيكَ.

But if you obey his voice and do all that I say, then I will hate those who hate you and fight against those who fight against you.

23 « حِينَ يَسِيرُ رَسُولِي أمامَكَ وَيُحضِرُكَ إلَى أرْضِ الأمُورِيِّينَ وَالحِثِّيِّينَ وَالفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَالكَنعانِيِّينَ وَالحِوِّيِّينَ وَاليَبُوسِيِّينَ وَأُبِيدُهُمْ،

For My angel will go before you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites and the Jebusites. And I will destroy them.

Do not worship their gods, or serve them, or act like them. But you are to destroy them and break their pillars of worship to pieces.

Women in your land will not lose their babies before they are born, and will be able to give birth. I will give you a full life.

27 « سَأُرسِلُ رُعبِي أمامَكَ، وَأُشَوِّشُ كُلَّ الشُّعُوبِ الَّتِي سَتُحارِبُها. سَأجعَلُ أعداءَكَ يَهرُبُونَ مِنْ أمامِكَ.

I will send hornets before you. They will drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites and the Hittites before you come.

I will not move them out of your way in one year. So the land will not become a waste, and the animals of the field become too many for you.

30 ب َلْ سَأطرُدُهُمْ مِنْ أمامِكَ سَنَةً بَعْدَ سَنَةٍ، إلَى أنْ يَتَكاثَرَ نَسلُكَ وَتَمتَلِكَ الأرْضَ.

I will drive them out a few at a time, until you become many and take the land for your own.

31 « سَأجعَلُ حُدُودَكَ مِنَ البَحرِ الأحْمَرِ إلَى بَحرِ الفِلِسْطِيِّينَ، وَمِنَ الصَّحْراءِ إلَى نَهْرِ الفُراتِ. لِأنِّي سَأُعطِي سُكّانَ الأرْضِ لَكَ لِتَطرُدَهُمْ مِنْ أمامِكَ.

I will give you the land from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates River. For I will give you power over the people of the land. And you will drive them away from you.

32 « لا تَقطَعْ عَهداً مَعَهُمْ أوْ مَعَ آلِهَتِهِمْ.

Make no agreement with them or their gods.

33 و َلا يَنبَغِي أنْ يَبْقَوْا فِي الأرْضِ، لِكَي لا يَجعَلُوكُمْ تُخطِئُونَ إلَيَّ. لِأنَّكَ إنْ عَبَدْتَ آلِهَتَهُمْ، سَتَكُونُ فَخّاً لَكَ.»

They are not to live in your land, or they will make you sin against Me. If you worship their gods, for sure it will be a trap to you.”
