8For sevenH7651 daysH3117 you are to presentH7126 a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068. On the seventhH7637 dayH3117 there shall be a sacredH6944 assemblyH4744; you must notH3808 doH6213 anyH3605 regularH5656 workH4399.’”

12On the dayH3117 you waveH5130 the sheafH6016, you shall offerH6213 a year-oldH1121H8141 lambH3532 without blemishH8549 as a burnt offeringH5930 to the LORDH3068, 13along with its grain offeringH4503 of two-tenths of an ephahH8147H6241 of fine flourH55601 mixedH1101 with oilH8081—a food offeringH801 to the LORDH3068, a pleasingH5207 aromaH7381—and its drink offeringH5262 of a quarterH7243 hinH1969 of wineH3196.2

14You must notH3808 eatH398 any breadH3899 or roastedH7039 or new grainH3759 untilH5704 theH2088 veryH6106 dayH3117 you have broughtH935 thisH853 offeringH7133 to your GodH430. This is to be a permanentH5769 statuteH2708 for the generations to comeH1755, whereverH3605 you liveH4186.
