Leviticus · Restored Names Edition

1And Yahuah (LORD) spake unto Moses, saying,

2Speak unto the children of Yashar'el (Israel), and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of Yahuah (LORD), which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.

3Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; you shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of Yahuah (LORD) in all your dwellings.

4These are the feasts of Yahuah (LORD), even holy convocations, which you shall proclaim in their seasons.

5In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD’S passover.

6And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto Yahuah (LORD): seven days you must eat unleavened bread.

7In the first day you shall have an holy convocation: you shall do no servile work therein.

8But you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD) seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: you shall do no servile work therein.

9And Yahuah (LORD) spake unto Moses, saying,

10Speak unto the children of Yashar'el (Israel), and say unto them, When you be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:

11And he shall wave the sheaf before Yahuah (LORD), to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.

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

13And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD) for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin.

14And you shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that you have brought an offering unto your Elohim (God): it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

15And you shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:

16Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall you number fifty days; and you shall offer a new meat offering unto Yahuah (LORD).

17You shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are the firstfruits unto Yahuah (LORD).

18And you 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 Yahuah (LORD), with their meat offering, and their drink offerings, even an offering made by fire, of sweet savour unto Yahuah (LORD).

19Then you shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of peace offerings.

20And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits for a wave offering before Yahuah (LORD), with the two lambs: they shall be holy to Yahuah (LORD) for the priest.

21And you shall proclaim on the selfsame day, that it may be an holy convocation unto you: you shall do no servile work therein: it shall be a statute for ever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

22And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not make clean riddance of the corners of your field when you reapest, neither shall you gather any gleaning of your harvest: you shall leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am Yahuah Elohaychem (the LORD your God).

23And Yahuah (LORD) spake unto Moses, saying,

24Speak unto the children of Yashar'el (Israel), saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall you have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.

25You shall do no servile work therein: but you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD).

26And Yahuah (LORD) spake unto Moses, saying,

27Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and you shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD).

28And you shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before Yahuah Elohaychem (the LORD your God).

29For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.

30And whatsoever soul it be that does any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.

31You shall do no manner of work: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32It shall be unto you a sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall you celebrate your sabbath.

33And Yahuah (LORD) spake unto Moses, saying,

34Speak unto the children of Yashar'el (Israel), saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto Yahuah (LORD).

35On the first day shall be an holy convocation: you shall do no servile work therein.

36Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD): on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD): it is a solemn assembly; and you shall do no servile work therein.

37These are the feasts of Yahuah (LORD), which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto Yahuah (LORD), a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, every thing upon his day:

38Beside the sabbaths of Yahuah (LORD), and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which you give unto Yahuah (LORD).

39Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a feast unto Yahuah (LORD) seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.

40And you shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before Yahuah Elohaychem (the LORD your God) seven days.

41And you shall keep it a feast unto Yahuah (LORD) seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

42You shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:

43That your generations may know that I made the children of Yashar'el (Israel) to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am Yahuah Elohaychem (the LORD your God).

44And Moses declared unto the children of Yashar'el (Israel) the feasts of Yahuah (LORD).
