Good News Translation GNT

1 The Lord gave Moses

2 the following regulations for the religious festivals, when the people of Israel are to gather for worship.

3 You have six days in which to do your work, but remember that the seventh day, the Sabbath, is a day of rest. On that day do not work, but gather for worship. The Sabbath belongs to the Lord, no matter where you live.

4 Proclaim the following festivals at the appointed times

5 The Passover, celebrated to honor the Lord, begins at sunset on the fourteenth day of the first month.

6 On the fifteenth day the Festival of Unleavened Bread begins, and for seven days you must not eat any bread made with yeast.

7 On the first of these days you shall gather for worship and do none of your daily work.

8 Offer your food offerings to the Lord for seven days. On the seventh day you shall again gather for worship, but you shall do none of your daily work.

9 When you come into the land that the Lord is giving you and you harvest your grain, take the first sheaf to the priest.

11 He shall present it as a special offering to the Lord, so that you may be accepted. The priest shall present it the day after the Sabbath.

12 On the day you present the offering of grain, also sacrifice as a burnt offering a one-year-old male lamb that has no defects.

13 With it you shall present four pounds of flour mixed with olive oil as a food offering. The odor of this offering is pleasing to the Lord. You shall also present with it an offering of one quart of wine.

14 Do not eat any of the new grain, whether raw, roasted, or baked into bread, until you have brought this offering to God. This regulation is to be observed by all your descendants for all time to come

15 Count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath on which you bring your sheaf of grain to present to the Lord.

16 On the fiftieth day, the day after the seventh Sabbath, present to the Lord another new offering of grain.

17 Each family is to bring two loaves of bread and present them to the Lord as a special gift. Each loaf shall be made of four pounds of flour baked with yeast and shall be presented to the Lord as an offering of the first grain to be harvested.

18 And with the bread the community is to present seven one-year-old lambs, one bull, and two rams, none of which may have any defects. They shall be offered as a burnt offering to the Lord, along with a grain offering and a wine offering. The odor of this offering is pleasing to the Lord.

19 Also offer one male goat as a sin offering and two one-year-old male lambs as a fellowship offering

20 The priest shall present the bread with the two lambs as a special gift to the Lord for the priests. These offerings are holy.

21 On that day do none of your daily work, but gather for worship. Your descendants are to observe this regulation for all time to come, no matter where they live

22 When you harvest your fields, do not cut the grain at the edges of the fields, and do not go back to cut the heads of grain that were left; leave them for poor people and foreigners. The Lord is your God.

23 On the first day of the seventh month observe a special day of rest, and come together for worship when the trumpets sound.

25 Present a food offering to the Lord and do none of your daily work.

26 The tenth day of the seventh month is the day when the annual ritual is to be performed to take away the sins of the people. On that day do not eat anything at all; come together for worship, and present a food offering to the Lord.

28 Do no work on that day, because it is the day for performing the ritual to take away sin.

29 Any who eat anything on that day will no longer be considered God's people.

30 And if any do any work on that day, the Lord himself will put them to death.

31 This regulation applies to all your descendants, no matter where they live.

32 From sunset on the ninth day of the month to sunset on the tenth observe this day as a special day of rest, during which nothing may be eaten.

33 The Festival of Shelters begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month and continues for seven days.

35 On the first of these days come together for worship and do none of your daily work.

36 Each day for seven days you shall present a food offering. On the eighth day come together again for worship and present a food offering. It is a day for worship, and you shall do no work

37 (These are the religious festivals on which you honor the Lord by gathering together for worship and presenting food offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings, sacrifices, and wine offerings, as required day by day.

38 These festivals are in addition to the regular Sabbaths, and these offerings are in addition to your regular gifts, your offerings as fulfillment of vows, and your freewill offerings that you give to the Lord.

39 When you have harvested your fields, celebrate this festival for seven days, beginning on the fifteenth day of the seventh month. The first day shall be a special day of rest.

40 On that day take some of the best fruit from your trees, take palm branches and limbs from leafy trees, and begin a religious festival to honor the Lord your God.

41 Celebrate it for seven days. This regulation is to be kept by your descendants for all time to come.

42 All the people of Israel shall live in shelters for seven days,

43 so that your descendants may know that the Lord made the people of Israel live in simple shelters when he led them out of Egypt. He is the Lord your God.

44 So in this way Moses gave the people of Israel the regulations for observing the religious festivals to honor the Lord.

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, The set feasts of Yahweh, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my set feasts.

3 Six days shall work be done: but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation; you shall do no manner of work: it is a Sabbath to Yahweh in all your dwellings.

4 These are the set feasts of Yahweh, even holy convocations, which you shall proclaim in their appointed season

5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, is Yahweh's Passover.

6 On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to Yahweh: seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.

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

8 But you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh seven days: in the seventh day is a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work.

9 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

11 and he shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you: on the next day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.

12 In the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a he-lamb without blemish a year old for a burnt offering to Yahweh.

13 The meal-offering of it shall be two tenth parts [of an ephah] of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to Yahweh for a sweet savor; and the drink-offering of it shall be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

14 You shall eat neither bread, nor parched grain, nor fresh ears, until this same day, until you have brought the offering of your God: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings

15 You shall count to you from the next day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave-offering; seven Sabbaths shall there be complete:

16 even to the next day after the seventh Sabbath shall you number fifty days; and you shall offer a new meal-offering to Yahweh.

17 You shall bring out of your habitations two wave-loaves of two tenth parts [of an ephah]: they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baked with yeast, for first fruits to Yahweh.

18 You shall present with the bread seven lambs without blemish a year old, and one young bull, and two rams: they shall be a burnt offering to Yahweh, with their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings, even an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh.

19 You shall offer one male goat for a sin-offering, and two he-lambs a year old for a sacrifice of peace-offerings

20 The priest shall wave them with the bread of the first fruits for a wave-offering before Yahweh, with the two lambs: they shall be holy to Yahweh for the priest.

21 You shall make proclamation on the same day; there shall be a holy convocation to you; you shall do no servile work: it is a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations

22 When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleaning of your harvest: you shall leave them for the poor, and for the sojourner: I am Yahweh your God.

23 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

25 You shall do no servile work; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

26 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

28 You shall do no manner of work in that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Yahweh your God.

29 For whatever soul it be who shall not be afflicted in that same day; he shall be cut off from his people.

30 Whatever soul it be who does any manner of work in that same day, that soul will I destroy from among his people.

31 You shall do no manner of work: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32 It shall be to you a Sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even to even, shall you keep your Sabbath.

33 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

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

36 Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh: on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh: it is a solemn assembly; you shall do no servile work

37 These are the set feasts of Yahweh, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh, a burnt offering, and a meal-offering, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, each on its own day;

38 besides the Sabbaths of Yahweh, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill-offerings, which you give to Yahweh

39 However on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruits of the land, you shall keep the feast of Yahweh seven days: on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest.

40 You shall take on the first day the fruit of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God seven days.

41 You shall keep it a feast to Yahweh seven days in the year: it is a statute forever throughout your generations; you shall keep it in the seventh month.

42 You shall dwell in booths seven days; all who are home-born in Israel shall dwell in booths;

43 that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am Yahweh your God.

44 Moses declared to the children of Israel the set feasts of Yahweh.
