Context of Leviticus 23:13

11The priest will lift it to the Lord. Then the Lord will accept their gift. The priest will do this on the day after the Sabbath day. 12On the same day the priest will bring a young sheep that is perfect to the Lord. It must be one year old. It is a gift from the people. He will also bring two tenths (2/10) of an ephah (about 4 litres) of the best flour mixed with oil. He will burn the gift as a sacrifice. The smell of it while it is burning will give the Lord pleasure. The people must also give a ¼ hin (about 1 litre) of wine as a gift to God. 14The people must not eat any of the new grain until they have given their gift to God. They and their children must do this now and always. They must do it in any place that they live. 15On the day after the Sabbath day the people will sacrifice their gifts to God. After this, they must count seven weeks.
