< Leviticus 23 >

1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, [Concerning] the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations, [even] these [are] my feasts.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: Appointed times of YHWH, which you proclaim [as] holy convocations, these [are] My appointed times.
3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day [is] the sabbath of rest, a holy convocation: ye shall do no work [in it]: it [is] the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
[For] six days work is done, and in the seventh day [is] a Sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; you do no work; it [is] a Sabbath to YHWH in all your dwellings.
4 These [are] the feasts of the LORD, holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
These [are] appointed times of YHWH, holy convocations, which you proclaim in their appointed times:
5 In the fourteenth [day] of the first month at evening [is] the LORD'S passover.
in the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the evenings, [is] the Passover to YHWH;
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month [is] the feast of unleavened bread to the LORD, seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
and on the fifteenth day of this month [is] the Celebration of Unleavened Things to YHWH; [for] seven days you eat unleavened things;
7 In the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work in it.
on the first day you have a holy convocation, you do no servile work;
8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD seven days: in the seventh day [is] a holy convocation, ye shall do no servile work [in it].
and you have brought a fire-offering near to YHWH [for] seven days; in the seventh day [is] a holy convocation; you do no servile work.”
9 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
10 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When ye shall have come into the land which I give to you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest:
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you come into the land which I am giving to you, and have reaped its harvest, and have brought in the sheaf, the beginning of your harvest to 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.
then he has waved the sheaf before YHWH for your acceptance; on the next day of the Sabbath the priest waves it.
12 And ye shall offer, that day when ye wave the sheaf, a he-lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt-offering to the LORD.
And you have prepared a lamb, a perfect one, a son of a year, in the day of your waving the sheaf for a burnt-offering to YHWH,
13 And the meat-offering thereof [shall be] two tenth-parts of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire to the LORD [for] a sweet savor: and the drink-offering thereof [shall be] of wine, the fourth [part] of a hin.
and its present [is] two-tenth parts of flour mixed with oil, a fire-offering to YHWH, a refreshing fragrance, and its drink-offering [is] a fourth of the hin of wine.
14 And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the same day that ye have brought an offering to your God: [It shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
And you do not eat bread and roasted grain and full ears until this very day, until your bringing in the offering of your God—a continuous statute throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.
15 And ye shall count to you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:
And you have numbered for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day of your bringing in the sheaf of the wave-offering: they are seven perfect Sabbaths;
16 Even to the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat-offering to the LORD.
you number fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath, and you have brought a new present near to YHWH;
17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave-loaves of two tenth-parts: they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven, [they are] the first-fruits to the LORD.
you bring in two [loaves] of bread out of your dwellings [for] a wave-offering; they are of two-tenth parts of flour; they are baked [with] yeast—first-[fruits] to YHWH.
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 to the LORD, with their meat-offering, and their drink offerings, [even] an offering made by fire of a sweet savor to the LORD.
And you 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 YHWH, with their present and their drink-offerings, a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH.
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.
And you 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 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.
and the priest has waved them, besides the bread of the first-[fruits], [as] a wave-offering before YHWH, besides the two lambs; they are holy to YHWH for the priest;
21 And ye shall proclaim on the same day, [that] it may be a holy convocation to you: ye shall do no servile work [in it]. [it shall be] a statute for ever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
and you have proclaimed in this very day [that] it is a holy convocation for yourselves, you do no servile work—a continuous statute 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 to the poor, and to the stranger: I [am] the LORD your God.
And in your reaping the harvest of your land you do not complete the corner of your field in your reaping, and you do not gather the gleaning of your harvest, you leave them for the poor and for the sojourner; I [am] your God YHWH.”
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
24 Speak to 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, a holy convocation.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, you have a Sabbath, a memorial of shouting, a holy convocation;
25 Ye shall do no servile work [in it]; but ye shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD.
you do no servile work, and you have brought a fire-offering near to YHWH.”
26 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
27 Also on the tenth [day] of this seventh month [there shall be] a day of atonement; it shall be a holy convocation to you, and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire to the LORD.
“Only—on the tenth of this seventh month is the Day of Atonements; you have a holy convocation, and you have humbled yourselves, and have brought a fire-offering near to YHWH;
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.
and you do no work in this very day, for it is a day of atonements, to make atonement for you, before your God YHWH.
29 For whatever soul [it may be] that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
For any person who is not humbled in this very day has even been cut off from his people;
30 And whatever soul [it may be] that doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
and any person who does any work in this very day, I have even destroyed that person from the midst of his people;
31 Ye shall do no manner of work. [It shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
you do no work—a continuous statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
32 It [shall be] to you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls in the ninth [day] of the month at evening: from evening to evening shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
It [is] a Sabbath of rest for yourselves, and you have humbled yourselves in the ninth of the month at evening; you keep your Sabbath from evening until evening.”
33 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
34 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month [shall be] the feast of tabernacles [for] seven days to the LORD.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, In the fifteenth day of this seventh month [is the] Celebration of Shelters [for] seven days to YHWH;
35 On the first day [shall be] a holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work [in it].
the first day [is] a holy convocation, you do no servile work;
36 Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD: on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you, and ye shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD: it [is] a solemn assembly; [and] ye shall do no servile work [in it].
[for] seven days you bring a fire-offering near to YHWH, on the eighth day you have a holy convocation, and you have brought a fire-offering near to YHWH; it [is] a restraint, you do no servile work.
37 These [are] the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, a burnt-offering, and a meat-offering, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, every thing upon its day:
These [are] appointed times of YHWH, which you proclaim [as] holy convocations, to bring a fire-offering near to YHWH, a burnt-offering, and a present, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, a thing of a day in its day,
38 Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your free-will-offerings, which ye give to the LORD.
apart from the Sabbaths of YHWH, and apart from your gifts, and apart from all your vows, and apart from all your willing-offerings, which you give to YHWH.
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 to the LORD seven days: on the first day [shall be] a sabbath, and on the eighth day [shall be] a sabbath.
Only—on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, in your gathering the increase of the land, you keep the celebration of YHWH [for] seven days; on the first day [is] a Sabbath, and on the eighth day 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.
and you have taken for 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 your God YHWH [for] seven days.
41 And ye shall keep it a feast to 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.
And you have kept it [as] a celebration to YHWH, seven days in a year—a continuous statute throughout your generations; in the seventh month you keep it [as] a celebration.
42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven days: all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
You dwell in shelters [for] seven days; all who are natives in Israel dwell in shelters,
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.
so that your generations know that I caused the sons of Israel to dwell in shelters in My bringing them out of the land of Egypt; I [am] your God YHWH.”
44 And Moses declared to the children of Israel the feasts of the LORD.
And Moses speaks to the sons of Israel [concerning] the appointed times of YHWH.
