2SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, The setH834 feastsH4150 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 ye shall proclaimH7121 to be holyH6944 convocationsH4744, evenH853 theseH428 are my setH834 feastsH4150.

3SixH8337 daysH3117 shall workH4399 be doneH6213: but on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 of solemnH7677 restH7677, an holyH6944 convocationH4744; ye shall doH6213 noH3808 manner of workH4399: it is a sabbathH7676 unto the LORDH3068 in allH3605 your dwellingsH4186.

4TheseH428 are the setH834 feastsH4150 of the LORDH3068, evenH853 holyH6944 convocationsH4744, whichH834 ye shall proclaimH7121 in their appointedH4150 seasonH4150.

5In the firstH7223 monthH2320, on the fourteenth dayH2320 of the monthH2320 at even, is the LORD’SH3068 passoverH6453.

6And on the fifteenth dayH3117 of the sameH2088 monthH2320 is the feastH2282 of unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 unto the LORDH3068: sevenH7651 daysH3117 ye shall eatH398 unleavenedH4682 breadH4682.

7In the firstH7223 dayH3117 ye shall have an holyH6944 convocationH4744: ye shall doH6213 noH3808 servile workH4399.

8But ye shall offerH7126 an offering madeH6213 by fireH801 unto the LORDH3068 sevenH7651 daysH3117: in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is an holyH6944 convocationH4744; ye shall doH6213 noH3808 servile workH4399.

9And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,

10SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, When ye be comeH935 intoH413 the landH776 whichH834 I giveH5414 unto youH834, and shall reapH7114 the harvestH7105 thereof, then ye shall bringH935 the sheafH6016 of the firstfruits of your harvestH7105 unto the priestH3548:

11and he shall waveH5130 the sheafH6016 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to be acceptedH7522 for youH6440: on the morrow afterH4283 the sabbathH7676 the priestH3548 shall waveH5130 it.

12And in the dayH3117 when ye waveH5130 the sheafH6016, ye shall offerH6213 a he-lamb withoutH8549 blemishH8549 of the firstH3117 yearH8141 for a burntH5930 offering unto the LORDH3068.

13And the mealH4503 offering thereof shall be twoH8147 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah of fineH5560 flourH5560 mingled with oilH8081, an offering made by fireH801 unto the LORDH3068 for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be of wineH3196, the fourthH7243 part of an hinH1969.

14And ye shall eatH398 neitherH3808 breadH3899, norH3808 parchedH7039 corn, norH3808 freshH3759 earsH3759, untilH5704 this selfsame dayH3117, untilH5704 ye have broughtH935 the oblation of your GodH430: it is a statuteH2708 for everH5769 throughoutH3605 your generationsH1755 in allH3605 your dwellingsH4186.

15And ye shall countH5608 unto youH3117 from the morrow afterH4283 the sabbathH7676, from the dayH3117 that ye broughtH935 the sheafH6016 of the waveH8573 offering; sevenH7651 sabbathsH7676 shall there be completeH8549:

16evenH5704 unto the morrow afterH4283 the seventhH7637 sabbathH7676 shall ye numberH5608 fiftyH2572 daysH3117; and ye shall offerH7126 a newH2319 mealH4503 offering unto the LORDH3068.

17Ye shall bringH935 outH8147 of your habitationsH4186 twoH8147 waveH8573 loavesH3899 of twoH8147 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah: they shall be of fineH5560 flourH5560, they shall be baken with leavenH2557, for firstfruits unto the LORDH3068.

18And ye shall presentH7126 with the breadH3899 sevenH7651 lambsH3532 withoutH8549 blemishH8549 of the firstH259 yearH8141, and one youngH1121 bullock, and twoH8147 ramsH352: they shall be a burntH5930 offering unto the LORDH3068, with their mealH4503 offering, and their drink offeringsH801, evenH7651 an offering madeH1961 by fireH801, of a sweet savour unto the LORDH3068.
