Leviticus 23:4-8
1599 Geneva Bible
4 ¶ These are the feasts of the Lord, and holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their [a]seasons.
5 In the first month and in the fourteenth day of the month at evening shall be the Passover of the Lord.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month shall be the feast (A)of unleavened bread unto the Lord: seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread.
7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no [b]servile work therein.
8 Also ye shall offer sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord seven days, and in the [c]seventh day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
