Leviticus 23:1-13 ▼

1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses, saying,

2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, & say vnto them, The feastes of ye Lord which yee shall call ye holie assemblies, euen these are my feasts.

3 Six daies shall worke be done, but in the seuenth day shalbe the Sabbath of rest, an holie conuocation: ye shall do no worke therein, it is the Sabbath of the Lorde, in all your dwellings.

4 These are the feastes of the Lord, and holie conuocations, which yee shall proclaime in their seasons.

5 In the first moneth, and in the fourteenth day of the moneth at euening shalbe ye Passeouer of the Lord.

6 And on the fifteenth day of this moneth shalbe the feast of vnleauened bread vnto the Lord: seuen dayes ye shall eate vnleauened bread.

7 In the first day yee shall haue an holy conuocation: ye shal do no seruile worke therein.

8 Also ye shall offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord seuen daies, and in the seuenth day shalbe an holie conuocation: ye shall do no seruile worke therein.

9 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

10 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come into ye land which I giue vnto you, and reape the haruest thereof, then ye shal bring a sheafe of the first fruites of your haruest vnto the Priest,

11 And hee shall shake the sheafe before the Lord, that it may be acceptable for you: the morowe after the Sabbath, the Priest shall shake it.

12 And that day when yee shake the sheafe, shall yee prepare a lambe without blemish of a yeere olde, for a burnt offring vnto the Lord:

13 And the meate offring thereof shalbe two tenth deales of fine floure mingled with oyle, for a sacrifice made by fire vnto ye Lord of sweete sauour; the drinke offring thereof the fourth part of an Hin of wine.
