Leviticus 23:15-22

15“You are to count seven complete weeks starting from the day after the Sabbath, the day you brought the sheaf of the presentation offering.

16You are to count fifty days until the day after the seventh Sabbath and then present an offering of new grain to the Lord.

17Bring two loaves of bread from your settlements as a presentation offering, each of them made from four quarts of fine flour, baked with yeast, as firstfruits to the Lord.

18You are to present with the bread seven unblemished male lambs a year old, one young bull, and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord, with their grain offerings and drink offerings, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

19You are also to prepare one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old as a fellowship sacrifice.

20The priest will present the lambs with the bread of firstfruits as a presentation offering before the Lord; the bread and the two lambs will be holy to the Lord for the priest.

21On that same day you are to make a proclamation and hold a sacred assembly. You are not to do any daily work. This is to be a permanent statute wherever you live throughout your generations.

22When you reap the harvest of your land, you are not to reap all the way to the edge of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and the resident alien; I am the Lord your God.”
