Leviticus 23:4-14

4 These are the appointed festivals of the Lord, the holy convocations, which you shall celebrate at the time appointed for them
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at twilight, there shall be a passover offering to the Lord,
6 and on the fifteenth day of the same month is the festival of unleavened bread to the Lord; seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
7 On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall not work at your occupations.
8 For seven days you shall present the Lord's offerings by fire; on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation: you shall not work at your occupations.
9 The Lord spoke to Moses:
10 Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you and you reap its harvest, you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest.
11 He shall raise the sheaf before the Lord, that you may find acceptance; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall raise it.
12 On the day when you raise the sheaf, you shall offer a lamb a year old, without blemish, as a burnt offering to the Lord.
13 And the grain offering with it shall be two-tenths of an ephah of choice flour mixed with oil, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to the Lord; and the drink offering with it shall be of wine, one-fourth of a hin.
14 You shall eat no bread or parched grain or fresh ears until that very day, until you have brought the offering of your God: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your settlements
