[The Pentateuch]

Moreover when the Lord hath brought the in to the land of the Canaanites, as he hath sworn unto thee and to thy fathers, and hath given it thee, then thou shalt appoint unto the Lord all that openeth the matrice, and all the firstborn among the beasts which thou hast if they be males. And all the firstborn of the asses, thou shalt redeem with a sheep: if thou redeem him not, then break his neck. But all the firstborn among thy children shalt thou bye out.

Moreouer when the Lorde hath broughte the in to the londe of the Canaanytes, as he hath sworne vnto the and to thi fathers, and hath geuen it the, thē thou shalt appoynte vnto the Lorde all that openeth the matrice, and all the firstborne among the beestes which thou hast yf they be males. And all the firstborne of the asses, thou shalt redeme with a shepe: yf thou redeme him not, then breake hys necke. But all the firstborne amonge thi childern shalt thou bye out.

And when thy son axeth the in time to come¹ saying: what is this? thou shalt say unto him: with a mighty hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. ⟨p. XXII⟩And when Pharaoh was loth to let us goo, the Lord slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: as well the firstborn of men as of beasts. And therefore I sacrifice unto the Lord all the males that open the matrice, but all the firstborn of my children I must redeem. And this shall be as a token in thine hand, and as a thing hanged up between thine eyes: because the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

And when thi sonne axeth the in tyme to come¹ saynge: what is this? thou shalt saye vnto him: with a mightie hande the Lorde broughte us out of Egipte, out of the housse of bondage. ⟨p. XXII⟩
