Leviticus 23:15–21

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.^{* 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.^{* 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.^{* 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^u of pleasing odor to the Lord. ¹⁹You shall also offer one male goat for a purification offering and two lambs a year old as a sacrifice of well-being.^{* 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. ²¹On 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.^*
