Leviticus 23:5-17

⁵In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, at eventide, is the pask of the Lord;

⁶and in the fifteenth day of this month is the solemnity of therf loaves of the Lord; seven days ye shall eat therf loaves;

⁷the first day shall be most solemn and holy to you; ye shall not do any servile work therein,

⁸but ye shall offer sacrifice in fire to the Lord seven days; soothly the seventh day shall be more solemn and holier, and ye shall not do any servile work therein.

⁹And the Lord spake to Moses and said,

¹⁰Speak thou to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, When ye have entered into the land which I shall give to you, and have reaped the corn, ye shall bear handfuls of ears of corn, the first fruits of your ripe corn, to the priest;

¹¹and the priest shall raise up a bundle before the Lord, that it be acceptable for you, in the tother day of the sabbath, that is, of pask; and the priest shall hallow that bundle;

¹²and the same day, wherein the handful is hallowed, a lamb of one year without wem shall be slain into burnt sacrifice of the Lord;

¹³and the flowing offerings shall be offered therewith, two tenth parts of tried wheat flour sprinkled altogether with oil, into incense of the Lord, and sweetest odour, and the flowing offerings of wine, the fourth part of hin.

¹⁴Ye shall not eat a loaf, neither cake, nor pottage of the corn, till to the day in which ye shall offer thereof to your God; it is a behest everlasting in your generations, and in all your dwelling places.

¹⁵Therefore ye shall number from the tother day of the sabbath, in which ye offered handfuls of the first fruits, seven full weeks,

¹⁶till to the tother day of filling of the seventh week, that is, fifty days; and so ye shall offer a new sacrifice to the Lord,

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.
