Exodus 22:27-29
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
27 You shall not despise God,[a] nor curse a leader of your people.(A)
28 You shall not delay the offering of your harvest and your press. You shall give me the firstborn of your sons. 29 You must do the same with your oxen and your sheep; for seven days the firstling may stay with its mother, but on the eighth day you must give it to me.(B)
