Leviticus 23
- 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.
