Leviticus

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 2 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall pro­claim ­to be holy con­vo­ca­tions, even these are my feasts. 3 Six days shall work be done: but the sev­enth day is the sab­bath of rest, an holy con­vo­ca­tion; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sab­bath of the LORD in all your dwellings. 4 These are the feasts of the LORD, even holy con­vo­ca­tions, which ye shall pro­claim in their sea­sons. 5 In the four­teenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S passover. 6 And on the fif­teenth day of the same month is the feast of un­leav­ened bread unto the LORD: sev­en days ye must eat un­leav­ened bread. 7 In the first day ye shall have an holy con­vo­ca­tion: ye shall do no servile work there­in. 8 But ye shall of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD sev­en days: in the sev­enth day is an holy con­vo­ca­tion: ye shall do no servile work therein. 9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 10 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the har­vest there­of, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the first­fruits of your har­vest unto the priest: 11 And he shall wave the sheaf be­fore the LORD, to be ac­cept­ed for you: on the mor­row af­ter the sab­bath the priest shall wave it. 12 And ye shall of­fer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb with­out blem­ish of the first year for a burnt of­fer­ing unto the LORD. 13 And the meat of­fer­ing there­of shall be two tenth deals of fine flour min­gled with oil, an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD for a sweet savour: and the drink of­fer­ing there­of shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin. 14 And ye shall eat nei­ther bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, un­til the self­same day that ye have brought an of­fer­ing unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever through­out your gen­er­a­tions in all your dwellings. 15 And ye shall count unto you from the mor­row af­ter the sab­bath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave of­fer­ing; sev­en sab­baths shall be com­plete: 16 Even unto the mor­row af­ter the sev­enth sab­bath shall ye num­ber fifty days; and ye shall of­fer a new meat of­fer­ing unto the LORD. 17 Ye shall bring out of your habi­ta­tions two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be bak­en with leav­en; they are the first­fruits unto the LORD. 18 And ye shall of­fer with the bread sev­en lambs with­out blem­ish of the first year, and one young bul­lock, and two rams: they shall be for a burnt of­fer­ing unto the LORD, with their meat of­fer­ing, and their drink of­fer­ings, even an of­fer­ing made by fire, of sweet savour unto the LORD. 19 Then ye shall sac­ri­fice one kid of the goats for a sin of­fer­ing, and two lambs of the first year for a sac­ri­fice of peace of­fer­ings. 20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first­fruits for a wave of­fer­ing be­fore the LORD, with the two lambs: they shall be holy to the LORD for the priest. 21 And ye shall pro­claim on the self­same day, that it may be an holy con­vo­ca­tion unto you: ye shall do no servile work there­in: it shall be a statute for ever in all your dwellings through­out your gen­er­a­tions. 22 And when ye reap the har­vest of your land, thou shalt not make clean rid­dance of the cor­ners of thy field when thou reapest, nei­ther shalt thou gath­er any glean­ing of thy har­vest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am the LORD your God. 23 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 24 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, say­ing, In the sev­enth month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sab­bath, a memo­ri­al of blow­ing of trum­pets, an holy con­vo­ca­tion. 25 Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD. 26 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 27 Also on the tenth day of this sev­enth month there shall be a day of atone­ment: it shall be an holy con­vo­ca­tion unto you; and ye shall af­flict your souls, and of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD. 28 And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of atone­ment, to make an atone­ment for you be­fore the LORD your God. 29 For what­so­ev­er soul it be that shall not be af­flict­ed in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his peo­ple. 30 And what­so­ev­er soul it be that doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I de­stroy from among his peo­ple. 31 Ye shall do no man­ner of work: it shall be a statute for ever through­out your gen­er­a­tions in all your dwellings. 32 It shall be unto you a sab­bath of rest, and ye shall af­flict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye cel­e­brate your sab­bath. 33 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 34 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, say­ing, The fif­teenth day of this sev­enth month shall be the feast of taber­na­cles for sev­en days unto the LORD. 35 On the first day shall be an holy con­vo­ca­tion: ye shall do no servile work therein. 36 Sev­en days ye shall of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy con­vo­ca­tion unto you; and ye shall of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn as­sem­bly; and ye shall do no servile work therein. 37 These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall pro­claim ­to be holy con­vo­ca­tions, to of­fer an of­fer­ing made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt of­fer­ing, and a meat of­fer­ing, a sac­ri­fice, and drink of­fer­ings, ev­ery thing upon his day: 38 Be­side the sab­baths of the LORD, and be­side your gifts, and be­side all your vows, and be­side all your freewill of­fer­ings, which ye give unto the LORD. 39 Also in the fif­teenth day of the sev­enth month, when ye have gath­ered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD sev­en days: on the first day shall be a sab­bath, and on the eighth day shall be a sab­bath. 40 And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of good­ly trees, branch­es of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and wil­lows of the brook; and ye shall re­joice be­fore the LORD your God sev­en days. 41 And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD sev­en days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your gen­er­a­tions: ye shall cel­e­brate it in the sev­enth month. 42 Ye shall dwell in booths sev­en days; all that are Is­raelites born shall dwell in booths: 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. 44 And Moses de­clared unto the chil­dren of Is­rael the feasts of the LORD.
