NHEBME - Leviticus - 23

23:1  The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23:2  "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'The set feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my set feasts.

23:3  "'Six days shall work be done: but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation; you shall do no manner of work. It is a Sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings.

23:4  "'These are the set feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, which you shall proclaim in their appointed season.

23:5  In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, is the Lord's Passover.

23:6  On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to the Lord. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.

23:7  In the first day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.

23:8  But you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord seven days. In the seventh day is a holy convocation: you shall do no regular work.'"

23:9  The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23:10  "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When you have come into the land which I give to you, and shall reap its the harvest, then you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest:

23:11  and he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you. On the next day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.

23:12  On the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a male lamb without blemish a year old for a burnt offering to the Lord.

23:13  The meal offering with it shall be two tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a pleasant aroma; and the drink offering with it shall be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

23:14  You shall eat neither bread, nor roasted grain, nor fresh grain, until this same day, until you have brought the offering of your God. This is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

23:15  "'You shall count from the next day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven Sabbaths shall be completed:

23:16  even to the next day after the seventh Sabbath you shall number fifty days; and you shall offer a new meal offering to the Lord.

23:17  You shall bring out of your habitations two loaves of bread for a wave offering made of two tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour. They shall be baked with yeast, for first fruits to the Lord.

23:18  You shall present with the bread seven lambs without blemish a year old, one young bull, and two rams. They shall be a burnt offering to the Lord, with their meal offering, and their drink offerings, even an offering made by fire, of a sweet aroma to the Lord.

23:19  You shall offer one male goat for a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old for a sacrifice of peace offerings.

23:20  The priest shall wave them with the bread of the first fruits for a wave offering before the Lord, with the two lambs. They shall be holy to the Lord for the priest.

23:21  You shall make proclamation on the same day: there shall be a holy convocation to you; you shall do no regular work. This is a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

23:22  "'When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap into the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest: you shall leave them for the poor, and for the foreigner. I am the Lord your God.'"

23:23  The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23:24  "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest to you, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.

23:25  You shall do no regular work; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord.'"

23:26  The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23:27  "However on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement: it shall be a holy convocation to you, and you shall afflict yourselves; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord.

23:28  You shall do no manner of work in that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God.

23:29  For whoever it is who shall not deny himself in that same day; shall be cut off from his people.

23:30  Whoever it is who does any manner of work in that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.

23:31  You shall do no manner of work: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

23:32  It shall be a Sabbath of solemn rest for you, and you shall deny yourselves. In the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall keep your Sabbath."

23:33  The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23:34  "Speak to the children of Israel, and say, 'On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of booths for seven days to the Lord.

23:35  On the first day shall be a holy convocation: you shall do no regular work.

23:36  Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord. On the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord. It is a solemn assembly; you shall do no regular work.

23:37  "'These are the appointed feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering, and a meal offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, each on its own day;

23:38  besides the Sabbaths of the Lord, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill offerings, which you give to the Lord.

23:39  "'So on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruits of the land, you shall keep the feast of the Lord seven days: on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest.

23:40  You shall take on the first day the fruit of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days.

23:41  You shall keep it a feast to the Lord seven days in the year: it is a statute forever throughout your generations; you shall keep it in the seventh month.

23:42  You shall dwell in booths seven days. All who are native-born in Israel shall dwell in booths,

23:43  that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.'"

23:44  Moses declared to the children of Israel the appointed feasts of the Lord.
