Leviticus 23:10–17

¹⁰“Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter the land which I am going to give to you and ^areap its harvest, then you shall bring in the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest.

¹¹‘And he shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh for you to be accepted; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.

¹²‘Now on the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a male lamb one year old without blemish for a burnt offering to Yahweh.

¹³‘Its ^agrain offering shall then be two-tenths of an ¹ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering by fire to Yahweh for a soothing aroma, with its drink offering, a fourth of a ²hin of wine.

¹⁴‘Until this same day, until you have brought in the offering of your God, ^ayou shall eat neither bread nor roasted grain nor new growth. It is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your places of habitation.

The Feast of Weeks

¹⁵‘^aYou shall also count for yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day when you brought in the sheaf of the wave offering; there shall be seven complete sabbaths.

¹⁶‘You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh sabbath; then you shall bring a ^anew grain offering near to Yahweh.

¹⁷‘You shall bring in from your places of habitation two loaves of bread for a wave offering, made of two-tenths of an ¹ephah; they shall be of a fine flour, baked ^awith leaven as first fruits to Yahweh.
