LEVITICUS · Chapter 23
23:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
23:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning
the feasts of the LORD, which all of you shall proclaim to be holy convocations,
even these are my feasts.
23:3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath
of rest, an holy convocation; all of you shall do no work therein: it is
the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
23:4 These are the feasts of the LORD, even holy convocations, which
all of you shall proclaim in their seasons.
23:5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD's
passover.
23:6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened
bread unto the LORD: seven days all of you must eat unleavened bread.
23:7 In the first day all of you shall have an holy convocation: all
of you shall do no servile work therein.
23:8 But all of you shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD
seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: all of you shall
do no servile work therein.
23:9 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
23:10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When all
of you be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the
harvest thereof, then all of you shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits
of your harvest unto the priest:
23:11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for
you: on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
23:12 And all of you shall offer that day when all of you wave the
sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering
unto the LORD.
23:13 And the food 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.
23:14 And all of you shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor
green ears, until the very same day that all of you have brought an offering
unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations
in all your dwellings.
23:15 And all of you shall count unto you from the next day after the
sabbath, from the day that all of you brought the sheaf of the wave offering;
seven sabbaths shall be complete:
23:16 Even unto the next day after the seventh sabbath shall all of
you number fifty days; and all of you shall offer a new food offering unto
the LORD.
23:17 All of you 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 first-fruits unto the LORD.
23:18 And all of you 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 food offering, and their
drink offerings, even an offering made by fire, of sweet savour unto the
LORD.
23:19 Then all of you shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin
offering, and two lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of peace offerings.
23:20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first-fruits
for a wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs: they shall be
holy to the LORD for the priest.
23:21 And all of you shall proclaim on the very same day, that it may
be an holy convocation unto you: all of you shall do no servile work therein:
it shall be a statute for ever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
23:22 And when all of you reap the harvest of your land, you shall
not make clean purging of the corners of your field when you reap, neither
shall you gather any gleaning of your harvest: you shall leave them unto
the poor, and to the stranger: I am the LORD your God.
23:23 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
23:24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month,
in the first day of the month, shall all of you have a sabbath, a memorial
of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
23:25 All of you shall do no servile work therein: but all of you shall
offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
23:26 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
23:27 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 all of
you shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the
LORD.
23:28 And all of you 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.
23:29 For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that
same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
23:30 And whatsoever soul it be that does any work in that same day,
the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
23:31 All of you shall do no manner of work: it shall be a statute
for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
23:32 It shall be unto you a sabbath of rest, and all of you shall
afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto
even, shall all of you celebrate your sabbath.
23:33 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
23:34 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.
23:35 On the first day shall be an holy convocation: all of you shall
do no servile work therein.
23:36 Seven days all of you shall offer an offering made by fire unto
the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and
all of you shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a
solemn assembly; and all of you shall do no servile work therein.
23:37 These are the feasts of the LORD, which all of you shall proclaim
to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD,
a burnt offering, and a food offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings,
every thing upon his day:
23:38 Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside
all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which all of you
give unto the LORD.
23:39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when all of you
have gathered in the fruit of the land, all of you 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.
23:40 And all of you 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 all of you shall rejoice before the LORD your
God seven days.
23:41 And all of you shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days
in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: all of
you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
23:42 All of you shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites
born shall dwell in booths:
23:43 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.
23:44 And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of
the LORD.
