Beginning

22 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² Speak unto Aaron and to his sons that they abstain from the holy things of the sons of Israel and that they not profane my holy name in those things which they sanctify unto me. I am the LORD.

³ Say unto them, Any man of all your seed among your generations that goes in unto the holy things, which the children of Israel sanctify unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence. I am the LORD.

⁴ Whatever man of the seed of Aaron who is a leper or has a running issue shall not eat of the holy things until he is clean. And whosoever touches any thing that is unclean by the dead or a man whose seed has gone out from him

⁵ or the man who has touched any reptile, by which he shall be unclean, or a man of whom he shall become unclean, according to whatever uncleanness he has,

⁶ the person who has touched any such shall be unclean until evening and shall not eat of the holy things until he has washed his flesh with water.

⁷ And when the sun is down, he shall be clean and shall afterward eat of the holy things, because it is his bread.

⁸ That which dies of itself or is torn by beasts, he shall not eat to defile himself therewith. I am the LORD.

⁹ They shall therefore keep my ordinance lest they bear sin for it and die therefore, if they profane it. I AM he who sanctifies them.

¹⁰ ¶ No stranger shall eat of the holy thing; a guest of the priest or a hired servant shall not eat of the holy thing.

¹¹ But when the priest shall buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house, they shall eat of his bread.

¹² If the priest’s daughter becomes married unto a stranger, she may not eat of that which is set apart of the holy things.

¹³ But if the priest’s daughter becomes a widow or divorced and has no child and is returned unto her father’s house as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s bread; but no stranger shall eat thereof.

¹⁴ And if a man eats of the holy thing by error, then he shall add the fifth part thereof unto it and shall give it unto the priest with the offering that he ate.

¹⁵ And they shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they set apart unto the LORD,

¹⁶ or suffer them to bear the iniquity of their guilt, when they eat their holy things. For I AM he who sanctifies them.

¹⁷ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

¹⁸ Speak unto Aaron and to his sons and unto all the sons of Israel and say unto them, Any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers in Israel that will offer his oblation for all his vows and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto the LORD for a burnt offering,

¹⁹ ye shall offer of your own free will a male without blemish of the bovine cattle of the sheep or of the goats.

²⁰ But ye shall not offer any thing that has a blemish, for it shall not be acceptable for you.

²¹ Likewise when anyone offers a sacrifice of peace unto the LORD to present his vow or a freewill offering in bovine cattle or sheep, it must be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.

²² Blind or broken or maimed or having a running sore or scurvy or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the LORD, nor make an offering on fire of them upon the altar of the LORD.

²³ A bullock or a lamb that has any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, thou may offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.

²⁴ Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised or crushed or broken or cut; neither shall ye do thus in all your land.

²⁵ Neither from the son of a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these because their corruption is in them and blemishes are in them; they shall not be accepted for you.

²⁶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁷ When a bullock or a sheep or a goat is born, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering on fire unto the LORD.

²⁸ And whether it is cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.

²⁹ And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer it of your own free will.

³⁰ On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow. I am the LORD.

³¹ Keep, therefore, my commandments and do them. I am the LORD.

³² Profane ye not my holy name, and I will sanctify myself in the midst of the sons of Israel. I AM he who sanctifies you

³³ and who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD.

23 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² Speak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, The feasts of the LORD, unto which ye shall make a general convocation of all the people, these shall be my feasts.

³ Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day shall be a sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein; it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

⁴ ¶ These are the feasts of the LORD, the holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their appointed times.

⁵ On the fourteenth of the first month between the two evenings 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 The first day ye shall have a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work therein.

⁸ And ye shall offer an offering on fire unto the LORD seven days; the seventh day shall be a holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work therein.

⁹ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

¹⁰ Speak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, When ye have entered 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 that ye shall be accepted; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.

¹² And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf a he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.

¹³ And the present thereof shall be two-tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil in an offering on fire unto the LORD for an acceptable aroma; and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

¹⁴ And ye shall eat neither bread nor parched grain nor green ears until this same day until ye have offered the offering of your God; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your ages in all your dwellings.

¹⁵ ¶ And ye shall count unto you from the day after the sabbath, from the day that ye offered the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete;

¹⁶ unto the day after the seventh sabbath, ye shall number fifty days; then ye shall offer a new present unto the LORD.

¹⁷ Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two-tenth deals; they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven, they are the firstfruits unto the LORD.

¹⁸ And ye shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of the first year and one young bullock and two rams; they shall be for a burnt offering unto the LORD, with their presents and their drink offerings in an offering on fire, of a very acceptable aroma unto the LORD.

¹⁹ Then ye shall also sacrifice one he goat as the sin and two lambs of the first year as a sacrifice of peace.

²⁰ And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits for a wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs; they shall be holiness of the LORD for the priest.

²¹ And ye shall be summoned on that same day; it shall be a holy convocation unto you; ye shall do no servile work: a perpetual statute in all your dwellings throughout your ages.

²² And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I AM your God.

²³ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁴ Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month in the first day of the month, ye shall have a rest, an alarm for a reminder, and a holy convocation.

²⁵ Ye shall do no servile work therein; but ye shall offer an offering on fire unto the LORD.

²⁶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁷ But the tenth day of this seventh month shall be the day of reconciliations; it shall be a holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls and offer an offering made on fire unto the LORD.

²⁸ And ye shall do no work in this same day; for it is a day of reconciliations, to reconcile you before the LORD your God.

²⁹ For every person that shall not afflict themselves in that same day, shall be cut off from among his people.

³⁰ And any person that does any work in that same day, the same person will I destroy from among his people.

³¹ Ye shall do no manner of work; it shall be a perpetual statute throughout your ages in all your dwellings.

³² It shall be unto you a sabbath of sabbaths, and ye shall afflict your souls, beginning in the ninth day of the month in the evening, from evening unto evening, shall ye rest on your sabbath.

³³ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

³⁴ Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles unto the LORD for seven days.

³⁵ The first day shall be a holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.

³⁶ Seven days ye shall offer an offering on fire unto the LORD; the eighth day ye shall have a holy convocation and offer an offering on fire unto the LORD; it is a feast; and ye shall do no servile work therein.

³⁷ These are the feasts of the LORD, unto which ye shall be summoned: holy convocations to offer an offering on fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering and a present, a sacrifice and drink offerings, every thing in its proper time;

³⁸ in addition the sabbaths of the LORD and in addition to your gifts and in addition to all your vows, and in addition to all your freewill offerings, which ye shall give unto the LORD.

³⁹ But in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days; the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall also be a sabbath.

⁴⁰ And on the first day ye shall take branches with fruit of a beautiful tree, palm branches and the boughs of thick trees and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.

⁴¹ And ye shall keep this feast unto the LORD for seven days each year. It shall be a perpetual statute for your ages; ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

⁴² Ye shall dwell in tabernacles seven days; all that are natural of Israel shall dwell in booths,

⁴³ that your descendants may know that I made the sons of Israel to dwell in tabernacles when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I AM your God.

⁴⁴ Thus Moses declared unto the sons of Israel the feasts of the LORD.
