And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

2 S peak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, The feasts of the LORD, unto which ye shall make a general convocation of all the people, these shall be my feasts.

`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Appointed seasons of Jehovah, which ye proclaim, holy convocations, these: they My appointed seasons:

3 S ix days shall work be done, but the seventh day shall be a sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein; it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

six days is work done, and in the seventh day a sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye do no work; it a sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.

4 These are the feasts of the LORD, the holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their appointed times.

`These appointed seasons of Jehovah, holy convocations, which ye proclaim in their appointed seasons:

5 O n the fourteenth of the first month between the two evenings is the LORD’s passover.

in the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the evenings, the passover to Jehovah;

6 A nd on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD; seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.

and on the fifteenth day of this month the feast of unleavened things to Jehovah; seven days unleavened things ye do eat;

8 A nd ye shall offer an offering on fire unto the LORD seven days; the seventh day shall be a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work therein.

and ye have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah seven days; in the seventh day a holy convocation; ye do no servile work.'

9 A nd the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

10 S peak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, When ye have entered 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;

`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, and have reaped its harvest, and have brought in the sheaf, the beginning of your harvest unto the priest,

11 a nd he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD that ye shall be accepted; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.

then he hath waved the sheaf before Jehovah for your acceptance; on the morrow of the sabbath doth the priest wave it.

12 A nd ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf a he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.

`And ye have prepared in the day of your waving the sheaf a lamb, a perfect one, a son of a year, for a burnt-offering to Jehovah,

13 A nd the present thereof shall be two-tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil in an offering on fire unto the LORD for an acceptable aroma; and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

and its present two tenth deals of flour mixed with oil, a fire-offering to Jehovah, a sweet fragrance, and its drink-offering, wine, a fourth of the hin.

14 A nd ye shall eat neither bread nor parched grain nor green ears until this same day until ye have offered the offering of your God; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your ages in all your dwellings.

`And bread and roasted corn and full ears ye do not eat until this self-same day, until your bringing in the offering of your God -- a statute age-during to your generations, in all your dwellings.

15 And ye shall count unto you from the day after the sabbath, from the day that ye offered the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete;

`And ye have numbered to you from the morrow of the sabbath, from the day of your bringing in the sheaf of the wave-offering: they are seven perfect sabbaths;

16 u nto the day after the seventh sabbath, ye shall number fifty days; then ye shall offer a new present unto the LORD.

unto the morrow of the seventh sabbath ye do number fifty days, and ye have brought near a new present to Jehovah;

17 Y e shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two-tenth deals; they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven, they are the firstfruits unto the LORD.

out of your dwellings ye bring in bread of a wave-offering, two, of two tenth deals of flour they are, yeast they are baken, first- to Jehovah.

18 A nd 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 presents and their drink offerings in an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the LORD.

`And ye have brought near, besides the bread, seven lambs, perfect ones, sons of a year, and one bullock, a son of the herd, and two rams; they are a burnt-offering to Jehovah, with their present and their libations, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.

19 T hen ye shall also sacrifice one he goat as the sin and two lambs of the first year as a sacrifice of peace.

`And ye have prepared one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and two lambs, sons of a year, for a sacrifice of peace-offerings,

20 A nd 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 holiness of the LORD for the priest.

and the priest hath waved them, besides the bread of the first- -- a wave-offering before Jehovah, besides the two lambs; they are holy to Jehovah for the priest;

21 A nd ye shall be summoned on that same day; it shall be a holy convocation unto you; ye shall do no servile work: a perpetual statute in all your dwellings throughout your ages.

and ye have proclaimed on this self-same day: a holy convocation is to you, ye do no servile work -- a statute age-during in all your dwellings, to your generations.

22 A nd 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 for the poor and for the stranger. I AM your God.

`And in your reaping the harvest of your land thou dost not complete the corner of thy field in thy reaping, and the gleaning of thy harvest thou dost not gather, to the poor and to the sojourner thou dost leave them; I Jehovah your God.'

23 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

24 S peak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month in the first day of the month, ye shall have a rest, an alarm for a reminder, and a holy convocation.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

27 B ut the tenth day of this seventh month shall be the day of reconciliations; it shall be a holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls and offer an offering made on fire unto the LORD.

`Only -- on the tenth of this seventh month is a day of atonements; ye have a holy convocation, and ye have humbled yourselves, and have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah;

28 A nd ye shall do no work in this same day; for it is a day of reconciliations, to reconcile you before the LORD your God.

and ye do no work in this self-same day, for it is a day of atonements, to make atonement for you, before Jehovah your God.

29 F or every person that shall not afflict themselves in that same day, shall be cut off from among his people.

`For any person who is not humbled in this self-same day hath even been cut off from his people;

30 A nd any person that does any work in that same day, the same person will I destroy from among his people.

and any person who doth any work in this self-same day I have even destroyed that person from the midst of his people;

31 Y e shall do no manner of work; it shall be a perpetual statute throughout your ages in all your dwellings.

ye do no work -- a statute age-during to your generations in all your dwellings.

32 I t shall be unto you a sabbath of sabbaths, and ye shall afflict your souls, beginning in the ninth day of the month in the evening, from evening unto evening, shall ye rest on your sabbath.

It a sabbath of rest to you, and ye have humbled yourselves in the ninth of the month at even; from evening till evening ye do keep your sabbath.'

38 i n addition the sabbaths of the LORD and in addition to your gifts and in addition to all your vows, and in addition to all your freewill offerings, which ye shall give unto the LORD.

apart from the sabbaths of Jehovah, and apart from your gifts, and apart from all your vows, and apart from all your willing-offerings, which ye give to Jehovah.

39 B ut 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; the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall also be a sabbath.

`Only -- in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, in your gathering the increase of the land, ye do keep the feast of Jehovah seven days; on the first day a sabbath, and on the eighth day a sabbath;

40 A nd on the first day ye shall take branches with fruit of a beautiful tree, palm branches and the boughs of thick trees and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.

and ye have taken to yourselves on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palms, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of a brook, and have rejoiced before Jehovah your God seven days.

41 A nd ye shall keep this feast unto the LORD for seven days each year. It shall be a perpetual statute for your ages; ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

`And ye have kept it a feast to Jehovah, seven days in a year -- a statute age-during to your generations; in the seventh month ye keep it a feast.

42 Y e shall dwell in tabernacles seven days; all that are natural of Israel shall dwell in booths,

`In booths ye dwell seven days; all who are natives in Israel dwell in booths,

43 t hat your descendants may know that I made the sons of Israel to dwell in tabernacles when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I AM your God.

so that your generations do know that in booths I caused the sons of Israel to dwell; in my bringing them out of the land of Egypt; I, Jehovah, your God.'

And Moses speaketh the appointed seasons of Jehovah unto the sons of Israel.
