1 Verder het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:
2 Spreek met die kinders van Israel en sê vir hulle: Die feestye van die HERE wat julle moet uitroep as heilige samekomste dit is my feestye.
3 Ses dae lank kan werk gedoen word, maar op die sewende dag is dit 'n dag van volkome rus, 'n heilige vierdag; g,,n werk mag julle doen nie dit is 'n sabbat van die HERE in al julle woonplekke.
4 Dit is die feestye van die HERE, die heilige vierdae wat julle moet uitroep op hulle bepaalde tyd.
5 In die eerste maand, op die veertiende van die maand, teen die aand, is die pasga van die HERE;
6 en op die vyftiende dag van hierdie maand is die fees van die ongesuurde brode van die HERE; sewe dae lank moet julle ongesuurde brode eet.
7 Op die eerste dag moet daar vir julle 'n heilige vierdag wees; g,,n beroepswerk mag julle doen nie.
8 Maar julle moet sewe dae lank aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer bring. Op die sewende dag moet daar 'n heilige vierdag wees; g,,n beroepswerk mag julle doen nie.
9 En die HERE het met Moses gespreek en gesê:
10 Spreek met die kinders van Israel en sê aan hulle: As julle in die land kom wat Ek julle gee en sy opbrings oes, moet julle die eerstelingsgerf van julle oes na die priester bring.
11 En hy moet die gerf voor die aangesig van die HERE beweeg, sodat julle welgevallig kan wees; die dag n die sabbat moet die priester dit beweeg.
12 Julle moet ook op die dag as julle die gerf beweeg, 'n jaaroud lam sonder gebrek as brandoffer aan die HERE berei,
13 en die spysoffer wat daarby behoort, twee tiendes van 'n efa fynmeel met olie gemeng as vuuroffer aan die HERE, 'n lieflike geur, en daarby die drankoffer van wyn, 'n kwart hin.
14 En julle mag geen brood of gebraaide koring of vars graan eet tot daardie selfde dag toe nie, totdat julle die offer van julle God bring. Dit is 'n ewige insetting vir julle geslagte in al julle woonplekke.
15 Dan moet julle tel van die dag n die sabbat, van die dag af as julle die beweegoffergerf bring sewe volle weke moet dit wees;
16 tot die dag n die sewende sabbat moet julle vyftig dae tel; dan moet julle 'n nuwe spysoffer aan die HERE bring.
17 Julle moet uit jul woonplekke twee beweegbrode bring; dit moet van twee tiendes van 'n efa fynmeel wees; gesuurd moet dit gebak word as eerstelinge aan die HERE.
18 Julle moet ook by die brood sewe jaaroud lammers sonder gebrek en een jong bul en twee ramme bring. Hulle moet 'n brandoffer aan die HERE wees saam met die spysoffer en die drankoffers wat daarby behoort as vuuroffer van lieflike geur aan die HERE.
19 En julle moet een bokram as sondoffer berei. Ook twee jaaroud lammers as dankoffer,
20 en die priester moet hulle saam met die eerstelingsbrood as beweegoffer voor die aangesig van die HERE beweeg saam met die twee lammers; die moet aan die HERE heilig wees, ten voordele van die priester.
21 En julle moet op daardie selfde dag uitroep: 'n heilige vierdag moet dit vir julle wees; g,,n beroepswerk mag julle doen nie. Dit is 'n ewige insetting in al julle woonplekke vir julle geslagte.
22 En as julle die opbrings van jul land oes, moet jy die kant van jou land as jy oes nie heeltemal afoes en die are wat val, nie versamel nie. Vir die arme en die vreemdeling moet jy dit laat oorbly. Ek is die HERE julle God.
23 En die HERE het met Moses gespreek en gesê:
24 Spreek met die kinders van Israel en sê: In die sewende maand, op die eerste van die maand, moet dit vir julle 'n rusdag wees, 'n gedenkdag deur basuingeklank, 'n heilige vierdag.
25 G,,n beroepswerk mag julle doen nie; maar julle moet aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer bring.
26 Verder het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:
27 Maar op die tiende van hierdie sewende maand is dit die versoendag. 'n Heilige vierdag moet dit vir julle wees; dan moet julle jul verootmoedig en aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer bring.
28 En op daardie selfde dag mag julle g,,n werk doen nie, want dit is 'n versoendag om vir julle versoening te doen voor die aangesig van die HERE julle God.
29 Want elkeen wat hom op daardie selfde dag nie verootmoedig nie, moet uit sy volksgenote uitgeroei word.
30 Ook elkeen wat op daardie selfde dag enige werk doen, die siel sal Ek uitroei onder sy volk uit.
31 Julle mag g,,n werk doen nie; dit is 'n ewige insetting vir julle geslagte in al julle woonplekke.
32 'n Dag van volkome rus moet dit vir julle wees, en julle moet jul verootmoedig. Op die negende van die maand in die aand, van aand tot aand, moet julle jul sabbat hou.
33 En die HERE het met Moses gespreek en gesê:
34 Spreek met die kinders van Israel en sê: Op die vyftiende dag van hierdie sewende maand is dit sewe dae lank die huttefees vir die HERE.
35 Op die eerste dag moet daar 'n heilige vierdag wees; g,,n beroepswerk mag julle doen nie.
36 Sewe dae lank moet julle aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer bring. Op die agtste dag moet daar vir julle 'n heilige vierdag wees, en julle moet aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer bring. Dit is 'n feestyd; julle mag geen beroepswerk doen nie.
37 Dit is die feestye van die HERE wat julle moet uitroep as heilige vierdae om aan die HERE 'n vuuroffer te bring: 'n brandoffer en spysoffer, 'n slagoffer en drankoffers soos vir elke dag voorgeskrywe;
38 behalwe die sabbatte van die HERE en behalwe julle gawes en behalwe al julle geloftes en behalwe al julle vrywillige offers wat julle aan die HERE gee.
39 Maar op die vyftiende dag van die sewende maand, as julle die opbrings van die land insamel, moet julle die fees van die HERE sewe dae lank vier; op die eerste dag is dit rusdag, en op die agtste dag is dit rusdag.
40 En op die eerste dag moet julle vir julle vrugte neem van sierlike bome, met palmtakke en takke van digte bome en rivierwilgers, en sewe dae lank voor die aangesig van die HERE julle God vrolik wees.
41 En julle moet dit as fees van die HERE sewe dae in die jaar vier. Dit is 'n ewige insetting vir julle geslagte. In die sewende maand moet julle dit vier.
42 Sewe dae lank moet julle in hutte woon; almal wat in Israel gebore is, moet in hutte woon,
43 sodat julle geslagte kan weet dat Ek die kinders van Israel in hutte laat woon het toe Ek hulle uit Egipteland uitgelei het. Ek is die HERE julle God.
44 So het Moses dan die feestye van die HERE aan die kinders van Israel bekend gemaak.
1 And the Lord said to Moses,
2 Say to the children of Israel, These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, which you will keep for holy meetings: these are my feasts.
3 On six days work may be done; but the seventh day is a special day of rest, a time for worship; you may do no sort of work: it is a Sabbath to the Lord wherever you may be living.
4 These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, the holy days of worship which you will keep at their regular times.
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at nightfall, is the Lord's Passover;
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread; for seven days let your food be unleavened bread.
7 On the first day you will have a holy meeting; you may do no sort of field-work.
8 And every day for seven days you will give a burned offering to the Lord; and on the seventh day there will be a holy meeting; you may do no field-work.
9 And the Lord said to Moses,
10 Say to the children of Israel, When you have come to the land which I will give you, and have got in the grain from its fields, take some of the first-fruits of the grain to the priest;
11 And let the grain be waved before the Lord, so that you may be pleasing to him; on the day after the Sabbath let it be waved by the priest.
12 And on the day of the waving of the grain, you are to give a male lamb of the first year, without any mark, for a burned offering to the Lord.
13 And let the meal offering with it be two tenth parts of an ephah of the best meal mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a sweet smell; and the drink offering with it is to be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.
14 And you may take no bread or dry grain or new grain for food till the very day on which you have given the offering for your God: this is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living.
15 And let seven full weeks be numbered from the day after the Sabbath, the day when you give the grain for the wave offering;
16 Let fifty days be numbered, to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you are to give a new meal offering to the Lord.
17 Take from your houses two cakes of bread, made of a fifth part of an ephah of the best meal, cooked with leaven, to be waved for first-fruits to the Lord.
18 And with the bread, take seven lambs of the first year, without any marks, and one ox and two male sheep, to be a burned offering to the Lord, with their meal offering and their drink offerings, an offering of a sweet smell made by fire to the Lord.
19 And you are to give one male goat for a sin-offering and two male lambs of the first year for peace-offerings.
20 And these will be waved by the priest, with the bread of the first-fruits, for a wave offering to the Lord, with the two lambs: they will be holy to the Lord for the priest.
21 And on the same day, let it be given out that there will be a holy meeting for you: you may do no field-work on that day: it is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living.
22 And when you get in the grain from your land, do not let all the grain at the edges of the field be cut, and do not take up the grain which has been dropped in the field; let that be for the poor, and for the man from another country: I am the Lord your God.
23 And the Lord said to Moses,
24 Say to the children of Israel, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a special day of rest for you, a day of memory, marked by the blowing of horns, a meeting for worship.
25 Do no field-work and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.
26 And the Lord said to Moses,
27 The tenth day of this seventh month is the day for the taking away of sin; let it be a holy day of worship; you are to keep from pleasure, and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.
28 And on that day you may do no sort of work, for it is a day of taking away sin, to make you clean before the Lord your God.
29 For any person, whoever he may be, who takes his pleasure on that day will be cut off from his people.
30 And if any person, whoever he may be, on that day does any sort of work, I will send destruction on him from among his people.
31 You may not do any sort of work: this is an order for ever through all your generations wherever you may be living.
32 Let this be a Sabbath of special rest to you, and keep yourselves from all pleasure; on the ninth day of the month at nightfall from evening to evening, let this Sabbath be kept.
33 And the Lord said to Moses,
34 Say to the children of Israel, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month let the feast of tents be kept to the Lord for seven days.
35 On the first day there will be a holy meeting: do no field-work.
36 Every day for seven days give an offering made by fire to the Lord; and on the eighth day there is to be a holy meeting, when you are to give an offering made by fire to the Lord; this is a special holy day: you may do no field-work on that day.
37 These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, to be kept by you as holy days of worship, for making an offering by fire to the Lord; a burned offering, a meal offering, an offering of beasts, and drink offerings; every one on its special day;
38 In addition to the Sabbaths of the Lord, and in addition to the things you give and the oaths you make and the free offerings to the Lord.
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have got in all the fruits of the land, you will keep the feast of the Lord for seven days: the first day will be a Sabbath, and the eighth day the same.
40 On the first day, take the fruit of fair trees, branches of palm-trees, and branches of thick trees and trees from the riverside, and be glad before the Lord for seven days.
41 And let this feast be kept before the Lord for seven days in the year: it is a rule for ever from generation to generation; in the seventh month let it be kept.
42 For seven days you will be living in tents; all those who are Israelites by birth are to make tents their living-places:
43 So that future generations may keep in mind how I gave the children of Israel tents as their living-places when I took them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
44 And Moses made clear to the children of Israel the orders about the fixed feasts of the Lord.
