Leviticus 23:15-22
1599 Geneva Bible
15 ¶ Ye shall count also to you from the morrow after the [a]Sabbath, even from the day that ye shall bring the sheaf of the shake offering, seven [b]Sabbaths, they shall be complete.
16 Unto the morrow after the seventh Sabbath shall ye number fifty days: then ye shall bring a new meat offering unto the Lord.
17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations bread for the shake offering: they shall be two loaves of two tenth deals of fine flour, which shall be baken with [c]leaven for firstfruits unto the Lord.
18 Also ye shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of one year old, and a young bullock and two rams: they shall be for a burnt offering unto the Lord, with their meat offerings and their drink offerings, for a sacrifice made by fire of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
19 Then ye shall prepare an he goat for a sin offering, and two lambs of one year old for peace offerings.
20 And the Priest shall shake them to and fro with the bread of the firstfruits before the Lord, and with the two lambs: they shall be holy to the Lord, for the [d]Priest.
21 So ye shall proclaim the same day, that it may be an holy convocation unto you: ye shall do no servile work therein: it shall be an ordinance forever in all your dwellings, throughout your generations.
22 ¶ (A)And when you reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not rid clean the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou make any aftergathering of thy harvest, but shalt leave them unto the poor and to the stranger, I am the Lord your God.
