The Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread(A)
4 “‘These are the Lord’s appointed festivals, the sacred assemblies you are to proclaim at their appointed times:(B) 5 The Lord’s Passover(C) begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month.(D) 6 On the fifteenth day of that month the Lord’s Festival of Unleavened Bread(E) begins; for seven days(F) you must eat bread made without yeast. 7 On the first day hold a sacred assembly(G) and do no regular work. 8 For seven days present a food offering to the Lord.(H) And on the seventh day hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work.’”
Offering the Firstfruits
9 The Lord said to Moses, 10 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you(I) and you reap its harvest,(J) bring to the priest a sheaf(K) of the first grain you harvest.(L) 11 He is to wave the sheaf before the Lord(M) so it will be accepted(N) on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath. 12 On the day you wave the sheaf, you must sacrifice as a burnt offering to the Lord a lamb a year old(O) without defect,(P) 13 together with its grain offering(Q) of two-tenths of an ephah[a](R) of the finest flour mixed with olive oil—a food offering presented to the Lord, a pleasing aroma—and its drink offering(S) of a quarter of a hin[b] of wine.(T) 14 You must not eat any bread, or roasted or new grain,(U) until the very day you bring this offering to your God.(V) This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come,(W) wherever you live.(X)

Leviticus 23:4-14
King James Version
4 These are the feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the Lord's passover.
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the Lord: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
9 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the Lord.
13 And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto the Lord for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin.
14 And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that ye have brought an offering unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
