Leviticus 23:39-43

39‘On exactly the fifteenth day of the seventh month, 1when you have gathered in the crops of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord for seven days, with a 2rest on the first day and a 3rest on the eighth day.

40Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the 4foliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days.

41You shall thus celebrate it as a feast to the Lord for seven days in the year. It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

42You shall 5live 6in booths for seven days; all the native-born in Israel shall 7live in booths,

43so that 8your generations may know that I had the sons of Israel live in booths when I brought them out from the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’”
