1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, The set feastsH4150 of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaimH7121 to be holyH6944 convocationsH4744, even these are my set feastsH4150. 3SixH8337 daysH3117 shall workH4399 be done: but on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 of solemn rest, a holyH6944 convocationH4744; ye shall do no manner of workH4399: it is a sabbathH7676 unto Jehovah in all your dwellingsH4186.

4These are the set feastsH4150 of Jehovah, even holyH6944 convocationsH4744, which ye shall proclaimH7121 in their appointedH4150 season. 5In the firstH7223 monthH2320, on the fourteenth day of the monthH2320 at even, is Jehovah’s passoverH6453. 6And on the fifteenth dayH3117 of the same monthH2320 is the feastH2282 of unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 unto Jehovah: sevenH7651 daysH3117 ye shall eatH398 unleavenedH4682 breadH4682. 7In the firstH7223 dayH3117 ye shall have a holyH6944 convocationH4744: ye shall do no servile workH4399. 8But ye shall offer an offeringH801 madeH6213 by fireH801 unto Jehovah sevenH7651 daysH3117: in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a holyH6944 convocationH4744; ye shall do no servile workH4399.

9And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 10SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, When ye are comeH935 into the landH776 which I giveH5414 unto you, and shall reapH7114 the harvestH7105 thereof, then ye shall bringH935 the sheafH6016 of the first-fruits of your harvestH7105 unto the priestH3548: 11and he shall waveH5130 the sheafH6016 before Jehovah, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbathH7676 the priestH3548 shall waveH5130 it. 12And in the dayH3117 when ye waveH5130 the sheafH6016, ye shall offerH6213 a he-lamb without blemish a yearH8141 old for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah. 13And the meal-offering thereof shall be twoH8147 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah of fineH5560 flourH5560 mingled with oilH8081, an offeringH4503 made by fireH801 unto Jehovah for a sweet savor; and the drink-offering thereof shall be of wineH3196, the fourthH7243 part of a hinH1969. 14And ye shall eatH398 neither breadH3899, nor parched grain, nor fresh ears, until this selfsame dayH3117, until ye have broughtH935 the oblation of your GodH430: it is a statuteH2708 for everH5769 throughout your generationsH1755 in all your dwellingsH4186.

15And ye shall countH5608 unto you from the morrow after the sabbathH7676, from the dayH3117 that ye broughtH935 the sheafH6016 of the wave-offering; sevenH7651 sabbathsH7676 shall there beH1961 completeH8549: 16even unto the morrow after the seventhH7637 sabbathH7676 shall ye number fiftyH2572 daysH3117; and ye shall offer a newH2319 meal-offering unto Jehovah. 17Ye shall bringH935 out of your habitations twoH8147 wave-loaves of twoH8147 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah: they shall beH1961 of fineH5560 flourH5560, they shall beH1961 baken with leavenH2557, for first-fruits unto Jehovah. 18And ye shall presentH7126 with the breadH3899 sevenH7651 lambsH3532 without blemish a yearH8141 old, and oneH259 youngH1121 bullock, and twoH8147 ramsH352: they shall beH1961 a burnt-offering unto Jehovah, with their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings, even an offeringH4503 made by fireH801, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah.
