| 9The LORD said to Moses, | 9The LORD spoke to Moses: |
| 10"Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'When you enter the land I am going to give you and you reap its harvest, bring to the priest a sheaf of the first grain you harvest. | 10"Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land I am giving you and reap its harvest, you are to bring the first sheaf of your harvest to the priest. |
| 11He is to wave the sheaf before the LORD so it will be accepted on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath. | 11He will present the sheaf before the LORD so that you may be accepted; the priest is to present it on the day after the Sabbath. |
| 12On the day you wave the sheaf, you must sacrifice as a burnt offering to the LORD a lamb a year old without defect, | 12On the day you present the sheaf, you are to offer a year-old male lamb without blemish as a burnt offering to the LORD. |

This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live. | 14You must not eat bread, roasted grain, or any new grain until this very day, and until you have brought the offering to your God. This is to be a permanent statute throughout your generations wherever you live. |
| 15"'From the day after the Sabbath, the day you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, count off seven full weeks. | 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. |
| 16Count off fifty days up to the day after the seventh Sabbath, and then present an offering of new grain to the LORD. | 16You are to count fifty days until the day after the seventh Sabbath and then present an offering of new grain to the LORD. |
| 17From wherever you live, bring two loaves made of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour, baked with yeast, as a wave offering of firstfruits 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. |

| 20The priest is to wave the two lambs before the LORD as a wave offering, together with the bread of the firstfruits. They are a sacred offering to the LORD for the priest. | 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 proclaim a sacred assembly and do no regular work. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live. | 21On that same day you are to make a proclamation and hold a sacred assembly. You are not to do any daily work.

| 22"'When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the foreigner residing among you. I am the LORD your God.'" | 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." |
| 23The LORD said to Moses, | 23The LORD spoke to Moses: |
| 24"Say to the Israelites: 'On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of sabbath rest, a sacred assembly commemorated with trumpet blasts. | 24"Tell the Israelites: In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you are to have a day of complete rest, commemoration, and trumpet blasts--a sacred assembly. |
| 25Do no regular work, but present a food offering to the LORD.'" | 25You must not do any daily work, but you must present a fire offering to the LORD." |
| 26The LORD said to Moses, | 26The LORD again spoke to Moses: |
| 27"The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. Hold a sacred assembly and deny yourselves, and present a food offering to the LORD. | 27"The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. You are to hold a sacred assembly and practice self-denial; you are to present a fire offering to the LORD. |
| 28Do not do any work on that day, because it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the LORD your God. | 28On this particular day you are not to do any work, for it is a Day of Atonement to make atonement for yourselves before the LORD your God. |
| 29Those who do not deny themselves on that day must be cut off from their people. | 29If any person does not practice self-denial on this particular day, he is to be cut off from his people. |
| 30I will destroy from among their people anyone who does any work on that day. | 30I will destroy among his people anyone who does any work on this same day. |
| 31You shall do no work at all. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live. | 31You are not to do any work. This is a permanent statute throughout your generations wherever you live. |
| 32It is a day of sabbath rest for you, and you must deny yourselves. From the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening you are to observe your sabbath." | 32It will be a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you must practice self-denial. You are to observe your Sabbath from the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening." |
| 33The LORD said to Moses, | 33The LORD spoke to Moses: |
| 34"Say to the Israelites: 'On the fifteenth day of the seventh month the LORD's Festival of Tabernacles begins, and it lasts for seven days. | 34"Tell the Israelites: The Festival of Shelters to the LORD begins on the fifteenth day of this seventh month and continues for seven days. |
| 35The first day is a sacred assembly; do no regular work. | 35There is to be a sacred assembly on the first day; you are not to do any daily work. |
| 36For seven days present food offerings to the LORD, and on the eighth day hold a sacred assembly and present a food offering to the LORD. It is the closing special assembly; do no regular work. | 36You are to present a fire offering to the LORD for seven days. On the eighth day you are to hold a sacred assembly and present a fire offering to the LORD. It is a solemn gathering; you are not to do any daily work. |
| 37("'These are the LORD's appointed festivals, which you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies for bringing food offerings to the LORD--the burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings required for each day. | 37"These are the LORD's appointed times that you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies for presenting fire offerings to the LORD, burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, each on its designated day. |
| 38These offerings are in addition to those for the LORD's Sabbaths and in addition to your gifts and whatever you have vowed and all the freewill offerings you give to the LORD.) | 38These are in addition to the offerings for the LORD's Sabbaths, your gifts, all your vow offerings, and all your freewill offerings that you give to the LORD. |
| 39"'So beginning with the fifteenth day of the seventh month, after you have gathered the crops of the land, celebrate the festival to the LORD for seven days; the first day is a day of sabbath rest, and the eighth day also is a day of sabbath rest. | 39"You are to celebrate the LORD's festival on the fifteenth day of the seventh month for seven days after you have gathered the produce of the land. There will be complete rest on the first day and complete rest on the eighth day. |
| 40On the first day you are to take branches from luxuriant trees--from palms, willows and other leafy trees--and rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days. | 40On the first day you are to take the product of majestic trees--palm fronds, boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook--and rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days. |
| 41Celebrate this as a festival to the LORD for seven days each year. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come; celebrate it in the seventh month. | 41You are to celebrate it as a festival to the LORD seven days each year. This is a permanent statute for you throughout your generations; celebrate it in the seventh month. |
| 42Live in temporary shelters for seven days: All native-born Israelites are to live in such shelters | 42You are to live in shelters for seven days. All the native-born of Israel must live in shelters, |
| 43so your descendants will know that I had the Israelites live in temporary shelters when I brought them out of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.'" | 43so that your generations may know that I made the Israelites live in shelters when I brought them out of the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God." |
| 44So Moses announced to the Israelites the appointed festivals of the LORD. | 44So Moses declared the LORD's appointed times to the Israelites. |
