Leviticus 23:15-22

New Life Version

The Supper of Weeks

¹⁵ ‘Number seven full weeks from the day after the Day of Rest, from the day when you give the grain for the wave gift. There will be seven whole Days of Rest. ¹⁶ Number fifty days to the day after the seventh Day of Rest. Then give a new grain gift to the Lord. ¹⁷ Bring from your homes two loaves of bread for a wave gift, made of one-fifth part of a basket of fine flour. They will be made with yeast, as first-fruits to the Lord. ¹⁸ With the bread give seven one year old male lambs that are perfect, and one young bull, and two rams. They will be a burnt gift to the Lord, with their grain gift and their drink gift. It is a gift by fire with a pleasing smell to the Lord. ¹⁹ Then give one male goat for a sin gift and two male lambs one year old for a peace gift. ²⁰ The religious leader will wave them with the bread of the first-fruits as a wave gift before the Lord, with the two lambs. They will be holy to the Lord for the religious leader. ²¹ On this same day call together a holy meeting. Do no hard work. It is a Law forever in all your homes for all your people.

²² ‘When you gather the food of your land, do not pick all the way to the corners of your field. And do not gather the food that falls. Leave it for those in need and the stranger. I am the Lord your God.’”
