9 You shall count seven weeks to yourselves; begin to count the seven weeks from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain. 10 And then you shall keep the feast of weeks to the LORD your God with sufficient of freewill offering of your hand, which you shall set aside as the LORD your God has blessed you; 11 And you shall rejoice before the LORD your God, you and your son and your daughter and your manservant and your maidservant and the Levite who is within your towns and the sojourner and the fatherless and the widow who is among you, at the place where the LORD your God has chosen to place his name. 12 And you must remember that you were a bondman in Egypt; so you shall observe and do these statutes.
