⁹ The Lord spoke to Moses: ¹⁰ “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land I am giving you and reap its harvest,^[a] you are to bring the first sheaf of your harvest to the priest. ¹¹ He will present the sheaf before the Lord so that you may be accepted; the priest is to present it on the day after the Sabbath. ¹² On the day you present the sheaf, you are to offer a year-old male lamb^[b] without blemish^(A) as a burnt offering to the Lord. ¹³ Its grain offering is to be four quarts^[c] of fine flour mixed with oil as a food offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma, and its drink offering will be one quart^[d] of wine. ¹⁴ You must not eat bread, roasted grain, or any new grain^[e] until this very day, and until you have brought the offering to your God. This is to be a permanent statute throughout your generations wherever you live.

² take some of the first of all the land’s produce that you harvest from the land the Lord your God is giving you and put it in a basket. Then go to the place where the Lord your God chooses to have his name dwell.^(A)
