1. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2. “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘The set feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my set feasts.
3. “‘Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation; you shall do no kind of work. It is a Sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings.
4. “‘These are the set feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, which you shall proclaim in their appointed season.
5. In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, is the Lord’s Passover.
6. On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to the Lord. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
7. In the first day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.
8. But you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord seven days. In the seventh day is a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.’”
9. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
10. “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you have come into the land which I give to you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest.
11. 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.
12. On the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a male lamb without defect a year old for a burnt offering to the Lord.
