1 The Loʀᴅ spoke again to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘ALev 23:4, 37, 44; Num 29:39The Loʀᴅ’s appointed times which you shall BLev 23:21proclaim as holy convocations—My appointed times are these:

3 ‘AEx 20:9, 10; 23:12; 31:13-17; 35:2, 3; Lev 19:3; Deut 5:13, 14For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a sabbath of complete rest, a holy convocation. You shall not do any work; it is a sabbath to the Loʀᴅ in all your dwellings.

4 ‘These are the AEx 23:14; Lev 23:2appointed times of the Loʀᴅ, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at the times appointed for them. 5  ‘AEx 12:18, 19; Num 28:16-25; Deut 16:1; Josh 5:10In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month 1Lit between the two eveningsat twilight is the Loʀᴅ’s Passover. 6  ‘Then on the fifteenth day of the same month there is the AEx 12:14-20; 23:15; 34:18; Deut 16:3-8Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Loʀᴅ; for seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. 7  ‘On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall ALev 23:8, 21, 25, 35, 36not do any laborious work. 8  ‘But for seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ. On the seventh day is a holy convocation; you shall not do any laborious work.’ ”

9 Then the Loʀᴅ spoke to Moses, saying, 10 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter the land which I am going to give to you and AEx 23:19; 34:26reap its harvest, then you shall bring in the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest. 11  ‘He shall wave the sheaf before the Loʀᴅ for you to be accepted; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it. 12  ‘Now on the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a male lamb one year old without defect for a burnt offering to the Loʀᴅ. 13  ‘Its ALev 6:20grain offering shall then be two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ for a soothing aroma, with its drink offering, a fourth of a 1I.e. Approx one gal.hin of wine. 14  ‘Until this same day, until you have brought in the offering of your God, AEx 34:26; Num 15:20, 21you shall eat neither bread nor roasted grain nor new growth. It is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places.

15 ‘ANum 28:26-31; Deut 16:9-12You shall also count for yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day when you brought in the sheaf of the wave offering; there shall be seven complete sabbaths. 16  ‘You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh sabbath; then you shall present a ANum 28:26new grain offering to the Loʀᴅ. 17  ‘You shall bring in from your dwelling places two loaves of bread for a wave offering, made of two-tenths of an 1I.e. Approx one buephah; they shall be of a fine flour, baked ALev 2:12; 7:13with leaven as first fruits to the Loʀᴅ. 18  ‘Along with the bread you shall present seven one year old male lambs without defect, and a bull of the herd and two rams; they are to be a burnt offering to the Loʀᴅ, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to the Loʀᴅ. 19  ‘You shall also offer ALev 4:23; Num 28:30one male goat for a sin offering and two male lambs one year old for a sacrifice of peace offerings. 20  ‘The priest shall then wave them with the bread of the first fruits for a wave offering with two lambs before the Loʀᴅ; they are to be holy to the Loʀᴅ for the priest. 21  ‘On this same day you shall ALev 23:2, 4make a proclamation as well; you are to have a holy convocation. You shall do no laborious BLev 23:7work. It is to be a perpetual statute in all your dwelling places throughout your generations.

22 ‘ALev 19:9, 10; Deut 24:19; Ruth 2:15fWhen you reap the harvest of your land, moreover, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field nor gather the gleaning of your harvest; you are to leave them for the needy and the alien. I am the Loʀᴅ your God.’ ”

23 Again the Loʀᴅ spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘ANum 29:1In the seventh month on the first of the month you shall have a 1Lit sabbath restrest, a BNum 10:9, 10reminder by blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. 25  ‘You shall ALev 23:21not do any laborious work, but you shall present an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ.’ ”

26 The Loʀᴅ spoke to Moses, saying, 27 “On exactly ALev 16:29; 25:9; Num 29:7the tenth day of this seventh month is BEx 30:10; Lev 16:30; 23:28; Num 29:7-11the day of atonement; it shall be a holy convocation for you, and you shall humble your souls and present an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ. 28  “You shall not do any work on this same day, for it is a ALev 23:27day of atonement, BLev 16:34to make atonement on your behalf before the Loʀᴅ your God. 29  “If there is any 1Lit soulperson who will not humble himself on this same day, AGen 17:14; Lev 13:46; Num 5:2he shall be cut off from his people. 30  “As for any person who does any work on this same day, that person I will destroy from among his people. 31  “You shall do no work at all. It is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places. 32  “It is to be a sabbath of complete rest to you, and you shall humble your souls; on the ninth of the month at evening, from evening until evening you shall keep your sabbath.”

33 Again the Loʀᴅ spoke to Moses, saying, 34 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On ANum 29:12the fifteenth of this seventh month is the BLev 23:42, 43; Deut 16:13, 16; Ezra 3:4; Neh 8:14; Zech 14:16; John 7:2Feast of Booths for seven days to the Loʀᴅ. 35  ‘On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall do ALev 23:25no laborious work of any kind. 36  ‘ANum 29:12-34For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ. On BNum 29:35-38the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the Loʀᴅ; it is an assembly. You shall do no laborious work.

37 ‘These are ALev 23:2the appointed times of the Loʀᴅ which you shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present offerings by fire to the Loʀᴅ—burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, BNum 28:1-29:38each day’s matter on its own day— 38 besides those of the sabbaths of the Loʀᴅ, and besides your gifts and besides all your 1Lit vows, and besides all yourvotive and freewill offerings, which you give to the Loʀᴅ.

39 ‘On exactly the fifteenth day of the seventh month, AEx 23:16when you have gathered in the crops of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Loʀᴅ for seven days, with a 1Lit sabbath restrest on the first day and a 1Lit sabbath restrest on the eighth day. 40  ‘Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the 1Lit products, fruitfoliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Loʀᴅ your God for seven days. 41  ‘You shall thus celebrate it as a feast to the Loʀᴅ for seven days in the year. It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month. 42  ‘You shall 1Lit dwelllive ALev 23:34in booths for seven days; all the native-born in Israel shall 1Lit dwelllive in booths, 43 so that ADeut 31:13; Ps 78:5fyour generations may know that I had the sons of Israel live in booths when I brought them out from the land of Egypt. I am the Loʀᴅ your God.’ ” 44 So Moses declared to the sons of Israel ALev 23:37the appointed times of the Loʀᴅ.
