2 Loquere filiis Israel, et dices ad eos: Hae sunt feriae Domini, quas vocabitis sanctas.
Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: These are the feasts of the Lord, which you shall call holy.
3 Sex diebus facietis opus: dies septimus, quia sabbati requies est, vocabitur sanctus. omne opus non facietis in eo. sabbatum Domini est in cunctis habitationibus vestris.
Six days shall ye do work: the seventh day, because it is the rest of the sabbath, shall be called holy. You shall do no work on that day: it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your habitations.
4 Hae sunt ergo feriae Domini sanctae, quas celebrare debetis temporibus suis.
These also are the holy days of the Lord, which you must celebrate in their seasons.
5 Mense primo, quartadecima die mensis ad vesperum, Phase Domini est:

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: When you shall have entered into the land which I will give you, and shall reap your corn, you shall bring sheaves of ears, the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest:
11 qui elevabit fasciculum coram Domino, ut acceptabile sit pro vobis, altero die Sabbati, et sanctificabit illum.
Who shall lift up the shed before the Lord, the next day after the sabbath, that it may be acceptable for you, and shall sanctify it.
12 Atque in eodem die quo manipulus consecratur, caedetur agnus immaculatus anniculus in holocaustum Domini.
And on the same day that the sheaf is consecrated, a lamb without blemish of the first year shall be killed for a holocaust of the Lord.

You shall count therefore from the morrow after the sabbath, wherein you offered the sheaf of the firstfruits, seven full weeks.
16 usque ad alteram diem expletionis hebdomadae septimae, id est quinquaginta dies: et sic offeretis sacrificium novum Domino
Even unto the marrow after the seventh week be expired, that is to say, fifty days, and so you shall offer a new sacrifice to the Lord.

And when you reap the corn of your land, you shall not cut it to the very ground: neither shall you gather the ears that remain; but you shall leave them for the poor and for the strangers. I am the Lord your God.
