-I Three yearly fears Ex o D u s XX II I. No covenant, &c. 91 I have raid unto you,ye fhall bee warie : and the name ofother gods ye (hall not mention; r4 it fhal not be heard out of thy mouth.Tnree times thou (bait keepe "a feaft unto me in the 15 yeere. The fear! of unlevened cakes !halt thou. keepe.: feven dayes fhalt thou cat un- levened cakes, as I have commanded thee,at the appointed time of the monech of Abib; for in it thou cámeft out from Egypt: and x6 they (hal not appearebefore me empty. And the feaft of harvelt,of the firII- fruits of thy labours , which thou (halt foìv in the field : and the feaft of ingáthering in the going out of the yeere , which thou gátherel in thy: 17 labours out of the field. Three times in the yeere every male of thee !hall appeare óe- 18 fore the face of the Lord Iehovah. Thou (halt not facrifice the blood of my facrifice with !evened bread, neither (hall the fat of r9 my feaft remaine umili the morning. The firft of the firft- fruits of thy land thou (halt bring into the houle of Iehovah thy God. Thou fhalt not feeth a kid in his mothers 2 o milke. Behold, I doe fend an Angell before thee, to keepe thee in thy way, and to bring thee unto the place which Lhave prepared. an Beware thou becaufe of him., and obey his voice; provoke him not: for hewill not par- don your trefpalfe, for my name is in him. 22 But if obeying thou (halt obey his voice,and doe all that I (haltfpeake,then I will be ene- mie unto thine enemies, and I will diftreffe 23 thy diftreffers. For my Angell fhall goe be- fore thee, and (hall bring thee in unto the A- Imorite, and the Chethite,and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite,the Evite & the lebufire : 2 and I will cut them off. Thou (halt not bow thy felf down to their gods, nor ferve them, nor doe according to their workes : but de- ' ftroying thou fhalt deftroy them,and break - 25 ing (halt hreake downe their pillars. And ye (hall ferve Iehovah your God, and hee will blefle thy bread, and thy water : and I will take away fickneffe from the midit of thee. 26 There Iliall not be any carting their young, or barren in thy land : the number of thy dayes I will fulfill. My terrour I will fend 7 before thee,and will difmay every people a- I mong whom thou (halt come, and will give all thy enemies(to turne1the neck unto thee. 28 And I will fend hornetrbefore thee : and they Thal drive out the Evite,the Canaanite, and the Chethite, frombefore thee. I will not drive them out from before thee in one yeere left the land be defolate,and the beaft 30 of the field multiply againft thee. By little and little, I will drive there out from before thee until thou (halt fi'u`tifie,and inherit the land. And I will fet thy botind,from the red fea even unto thefea of the Philiftines, and from the wildernefle unto the river: for will give into your hand the inhabitan-s of the land, and thou (halt drive them out from before thee. Thou (halt not ftrike a cove- nant with them , or with their gods. They (hall not dwell in thy land, left they make thee finne againft me : if thou (halt ferve theirgods,furely it will be a Inane unto thee. 31 32 33 Annotations.
