The Feast of Weeks

15 “ ‘And you shall count for yourselves from the day after[fn] the Sabbath, from the day of your bringing the wave offering’s sheaf—there shall be seven full weeks. 16 Until the day after[fn] the seventh Sabbath you shall count fifty days; then[fn] 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[fn] two-tenthsof an ephah[fn] of finely milled flour; they must be baked with leaven—the firstfruits belonging to[fn] Yahweh. 18 And, in addition to the bread, you shall present seven yearling[fn] male lambs without defects and oneyoung bull[fn] and two rams—they shall be a burnt offering for Yahweh with[fn] their grain offering and their libations, an offering made by fire, an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 19 And you shall offer[fn] one he-goat as a sin offering and twoyearling[fn] 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[fn] Yahweh; in addition tothe two male lambs, they shall be holy for Yahweh for the priest. 21 And you shall make a proclamation[fn] onthis very same day;[fn] it shall be a holy assembly for you; you shall not doany regular work;[fn]this is a lasting statute[fn] in all your dwellings throughout[fn] your generations. 22 And when you[fn] reap the harvest of your[fn] land, you[fn] must not finish the edge of your[fn] field at your reaping, and you[fn] must not glean the remnants of your[fn] harvest—you[fn] shall leave them behind for the needy and for the alien; Iam Yahweh your[fn] God.’ ”
