Leviticus 23:17-34

¹⁷of all your dwelling places, two loaves of the first fruits, of two tenth parts of tried flour, dighted with sour-dough, which loaves ye shall bake into the first fruits to the Lord.

¹⁸And ye shall offer with the loaves seven lambs of one year without wem, and one calf of the drove, and two rams; and these shall be in burnt sacrifice, with their flowing offerings, into the sweetest odour to the Lord.

¹⁹Ye shall make also a goat buck for sin, and two lambs of one year, the sacrifices of peaceable things.

²⁰And when the priest hath raised those or them, with the loaves of the first fruits, before the Lord, those or they shall fall into the priest’s use.

²¹And ye shall call this day most solemn, and most holy; ye shall not do therein any servile work; it shall be a lawful thing everlasting in all your dwellings, and generations.

²²Forsooth after that ye have reaped the corn of your land, ye shall not cut it till to the ground, neither ye shall gather the ears of corn that abide, but ye shall leave those or them to poor men and pilgrims; I am the Lord your God.

²³And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,

²⁴Speak thou to the sons of Israel, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall be a sabbath, a memorial to you, sounding with trumps, and it shall be called holy;

²⁵ye shall not do any servile work therein, and ye shall offer burnt sacrifice to the Lord.

²⁶And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,

²⁷In the tenth day of this seventh month, the day of cleansings or purging shall be most solemn, and it shall be called holy; and ye shall torment your souls to God, and ye shall offer burnt sacrifice to the Lord;

²⁸ye shall not do any work in the time of this day, for it is the day of cleansing, that your Lord God be merciful to you.

²⁹Each man which is not tormented in this day, shall perish from his peoples,

³⁰and I shall do away from his people that man that doeth anything of work in that day;

³¹therefore ye shall not do anything of work in that day; it shall be a lawful thing everlasting to you in all your generations and dwellings;

³²it is the sabbath of resting. Ye shall therein torment your souls from the ninth day of the month; from the eventide till to eventide ye shall hallow your sabbaths.

³³And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,

³⁴Speak thou to the sons of Israel, From the fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the fairs of tabernacles, in seven days to the Lord;
