23:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23:2Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, The appointed feasts of Jehovah, which you* will proclaim to be holy assemblies, even these are my appointed feasts. 23:3Six days will work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy assembly. You* will not do any work. It is a Sabbath to Jehovah in all your* dwellings.

    23:4 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, even holy assemblies, which you* will proclaim in their appointed season.

    23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, is Jehovah's Passover. 23:6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to Jehovah. You* will eat unleavened bread seven days. 23:7 In the first day you* will have a holy assembly. You* will not do any laborious work. 23:8 But you* will offer a fire-offering to Jehovah seven days. In the seventh day is a holy assembly, you* will not do any laborious work.

    23:9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23:10Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When you* have come into the land which I give to you* and will reap the harvest of it, then you* will bring the sheaf of the first-fruits of your* harvest to the priest. 23:11 And he will wave the sheaf before Jehovah, to be accepted for you*. On the next-day after the Sabbath the priest will wave it. 23:12 And in the day when you* wave the sheaf, you* will offer a male-lamb without blemish a year old for a burnt-offering to Jehovah. 23:13 And the food-offering of it will be two tenth parts of a 10-gallon container of fine flour mingled with oil, a fire-offering to Jehovah for a sweet aroma. And the drink-offering of it will be of wine, the fourth part of a 5-quart container. 23:14 And you* will eat neither bread, nor parched grain, nor fresh ears, until this same day, until you* have brought the offering of your* God. It is an everlasting statute throughout your* genealogy in all your* dwellings.

    23:15 And you* will count to you* from the next-day after the Sabbath, from the day that you* brought the sheaf of the wave-offering, they will be seven complete Sabbaths. 23:16 You* will number fifty days, even to the next-day after the seventh Sabbath and you* will offer a new food-offering to Jehovah.23:17 You* will bring out of your* dwellings two wave-offerings of two tenth parts of a 10-gallon container. They will be of fine flour. They will be baked with leaven, for first-fruits to Jehovah. 23:18 And you* will present with the bread seven lambs without blemish a year old and one young bull and two rams. They will be a burnt-offering to Jehovah, with their food-offering and their drink-offerings, even a fire-offering, of a sweet aroma to Jehovah. 23:19 And you* will offer one male-goat for a sin-offering and two male-lambs a year old for a sacrifice of peace-offerings. 23:20 And the priest will wave them with the bread of the first-fruits for a wave-offering before Jehovah, with the two lambs. They will be holy to Jehovah for the priest. 23:21 And you* will make proclamation on the same day, a holy assembly will be to you*. You* will not do any laborious work. It is an everlasting statute in all your* dwellings throughout your* genealogy.

    23:22 And when you* reap the harvest of your* land, you will not entirely reap the edges of your field, neither will you gather the gleaning of your harvest. You will leave them for the poor man and for the traveler. I am Jehovah your* God.

    23:23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23:24Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, will be a solemn rest to you*, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy assembly. 23:25 You* will not do any laborious work and you* will offer a fire-offering to Jehovah.

    23:26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23:27However on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement. It will be a holy assembly to you* and you* will humble your* souls and you* will offer a fire-offering to Jehovah. 23:28 And you* will not do any work in that same day, because it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you* before Jehovah your* God. 23:29 Because whatever soul it is who will not be humbled in that same day, he will be cut off from his people. 23:30 And whatever soul it is who does any work in that same day, that soul I will destroy from among his people. 23:31 You* will not do any work. It is an everlasting statute throughout your* genealogy in all your* dwellings. 23:32 It will be to you* a Sabbath of solemn rest and you* will humble your* souls. In the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you* will keep your* Sabbath.

    23:33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23:34Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Feast of Booths for seven days to Jehovah. 23:35 On the first day will be a holy assembly. You* will not do any laborious work. 23:36Seven days you* will offer a fire-offering to Jehovah. On the eighth day will be a holy assembly to you* and you* will offer a fire-offering to Jehovah. It is a solemn assembly; you* will not do any laborious work.

    23:37 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, which you* will proclaim to be holy assemblies, to offer a fire-offering to Jehovah, a burnt-offering and a food-offering, a sacrifice and drink-offerings, each on its own day. 23:38 Besides the Sabbaths of Jehovah and besides your* gifts and besides all your* vows and besides all your* free-will offerings, which you* give to Jehovah.

    23:39 However on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you* have gathered in the fruits of the land, you* will keep the feast of Jehovah seven days. On the first day will be a solemn rest and on the eighth day will be a solemn rest. 23:40 And you* will take to you* on the first day the fruit of majestic trees, branches of palm trees and branches of thick trees and willows of the brook and you* will rejoice before Jehovah your* God seven days. 23:41 And you* will keep it a feast to Jehovah seven days in the year. It is an everlasting statute throughout your* genealogy. You* will keep it in the seventh month. 23:42 You* will dwell in booths seven days. All who are home-born in Israel will dwell in booths, 23:43 that your* genealogy may know that I made the sons of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am Jehovah your* God. 23:44 And Moses declared to the sons of Israel the set feasts of Jehovah.
