38 exceptis sabbatis Domini donisque vestris et quae offertis ex voto vel quae sponte tribuitis Domin

39 a quintodecimo ergo die mensis septimi quando congregaveritis omnes fructus terrae vestrae celebrabitis ferias Domini septem diebus die primo et die octavo erit sabbatum id est requies

40 sumetisque vobis die primo fructus arboris pulcherrimae spatulasque palmarum et ramos ligni densarum frondium et salices de torrente et laetabimini coram Domino Deo vestro
