The Festival of Weeks

15 “And from the day after the Sabbath, from the day on which you bring the sheaf of the elevation offering, you shall count seven full weeks.(A) 16 You shall count until the day after the seventh Sabbath, fifty days; then you shall present an offering of new grain to the Lord.(B) 17 You shall bring from your settlements two loaves of bread as an elevation offering, each made of two-tenths of an ephah; they shall be of choice flour, baked with leaven, as first fruits to the Lord.(C) 18 You shall present with the bread seven lambs a year old without blemish, one bull of the herd, and two rams; they shall be a burnt offering to the Lord, along with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering by fire[a] of pleasing odor to the Lord. 19 You shall also offer one male goat for a purification offering and two lambs a year old as a sacrifice of well-being.(D) 20 The priest shall raise them with the bread of the first fruits as an elevation offering before the Lord, together with the two lambs; they shall be holy to the Lord for the priest. 21 On that same day you shall make proclamation; you shall hold a holy convocation; you shall not work at your occupations. This is a statute forever in all your settlements throughout your generations.(E)

22 “When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest; you shall leave them for the poor and for the alien: I am the Lord your God.”(F)

The Feast of Weeks

15 “‘And you shall count for yourselves from the day after[a] the Sabbath, from the day of your bringing the wave offering’s sheaf—there shall be seven full weeks. 16 Until the day after[b] the seventh Sabbath you shall count fifty days; then[c] you shall present a new grain offering for Yahweh. 17 You shall bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two loaves of bread made with[d] two-tenths of an ephah[e] of finely milled flour; they must be baked with leaven—the firstfruits belonging to[f] Yahweh. 18 And, in addition to the bread, you shall present seven yearling[g] male lambs without defects and one young bull[h] and two rams—they shall be a burnt offering for Yahweh with[i] their grain offering and their libations, an offering made by fire, an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 19 And you shall offer[j] one he-goat as a sin offering and two yearling[k] male lambs as a sacrifice of fellowship offerings. 20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits as a wave offering before[l] Yahweh; in addition to the two male lambs, they shall be holy for Yahweh for the priest. 21 And you shall make a proclamation[m] on this very same day;[n] it shall be a holy assembly for you; you shall not do any regular work;[o] this is a lasting statute[p] in all your dwellings throughout[q] your generations. 22 And when you[r] reap the harvest of your[s] land, you[t] must not finish the edge of your[u] field at your reaping, and you[v] must not glean the remnants of your[w] harvest—you[x] shall leave them behind for the needy and for the alien; I am Yahweh your[y] God.’”
