Leviticus 23:33-44 ▼

33 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

34 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, In the fifteenth day of this seueth moneth shalbe for seuen dayes the feast of Tabernacles vnto the Lorde.

35 In the first day shalbe an holie conuocation: ye shall do no seruile worke therein.

36 Seuen daies ye shall offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord, and in the eight day shalbe an holy conuocation vnto you, and ye shall offer sacrifices made by fire vnto the Lorde: it is the solemne assemblie, yee shall doe no seruile worke therein.

37 These are the feastes of the Lord (which ye shall call holie conuocations) to offer sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord, as burnt offring, and meate offring, sacrifice, and drinke offrings, euery one vpon his day,

38 Beside the Sabbaths of the Lorde, and beside your giftes, and beside al your vowes, and beside all your free offrings, which ye shal giue vnto the Lorde.

39 But in the fifteenth day of the seueth moneth, when ye haue gathered in the fruite of the land, ye shall keepe an holie feast vnto the Lord seuen daies: in the first day shalbe a Sabbath: likewise in the eight day shalbe a Sabbath.

40 And yee shall take you in the first day the fruite of goodly trees, branches of palme trees, & the boughes of thicke trees, and willowes of the brooke, and shall reioyce before the Lorde your God seuen daies.

41 So ye shall keepe this feast vnto the Lorde seuen daies in the yere, by a perpetuall ordinance through your generations: in the seuenth moneth shall you keepe it.

42 Ye shall dwell in boothes seuen daies: all that are Israelites borne, shall dwel in boothes,

43 That your posterity may know that I haue made the children of Israel to dwell in boothes, when I brought them out of the lande of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

44 So Moses declared vnto the children of Israel the feastes of the Lord.
