Leviticus 23:4-16

⁴These are the Lord's religious festivals, the holy meetings that you ate to announce at their specific times.

⁵The Lord's Passover starts on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month.

⁶The Lord's Festival of Unleavened Bread begins on the fifteenth day of the first month. For seven days the bread you eat must be made without yeast.

⁷On the first day you are hold a holy meeting. You must not do any of your usual work.

⁸For seven days you shall present food offerings to the Lord. There is to be a holy meeting on the seventh day. You must not do any of your usual work.”

⁹The Lord told Moses,

¹⁰“Tell the Israelites that when you enter the land that I'm giving you and you harvest your crops, take a stack of grain from the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest.

¹¹He will wave the stack of grain before the Lord so that it may be accepted on your behalf. The priest is to do this the day following the Sabbath.

¹²When you wave the stack of grain, you are to present a one-year-old lamb without defects as a burnt offering to the Lord,

¹³together with its grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil (a food offering to the Lord to be accepted by him) and its drink offering of a quarter of a hin of wine.

¹⁴Don't eat any bread, roasted grain, or new grain until the time you bring this offering to your God. This regulation is for all time and for future generations everywhere you live.

¹⁵Count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath—the day you brought the stack of grain as a wave offering.

¹⁶Count fifty days until the day after the seventh Sabbath, and on that day present an offering of new grain to the Lord.
