7. On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly; you are not to do any daily work.
8. You are to present a fire offering to the Lord for seven days. On the seventh day there will be a sacred assembly; you must not do any daily work.”
9. The Lord spoke to Moses:
10. “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land I am giving you and reap its harvest, you are to bring the first sheaf of your harvest to the priest.
11. He will wave the sheaf before the Lord so that you may be accepted; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath.
12. On the day you wave the sheaf, you are to offer a year-old male lamb without blemish as a burnt offering to the Lord.
13. Its grain offering is to be four quarts of fine flour mixed with oil as a fire offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma, and its drink offering will be one quart of wine.
14. You must not eat bread, roasted grain, or any new grain until this very day, and until you have brought the offering to your God. This is to be a permanent statute throughout your generations wherever you live.
15. “You are to count seven complete weeks starting from the day after the Sabbath, the day you brought the sheaf of the presentation offering.
16. You are to count 50 days until the day after the seventh Sabbath and then present an offering of new grain to the Lord.
17. Bring two loaves of bread from your settlements as a presentation offering, each of them made from four quarts of fine flour, baked with yeast, as firstfruits to the Lord.
