23:1 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens 23:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23:2 loquere filiis Israhel et dices ad eos hae sunt feriae Domini quas vocabitis sanctas 23:2. Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: These are the feasts of the Lord, which you shall call holy.
23:3 sex diebus facietis opus dies septimus quia sabbati requies est vocabitur sanctus omne opus non facietis in eo sabbatum Domini est in cunctis habitationibus vestris 23:3. Six days shall ye do work: the seventh day, because it is the rest of the sabbath, shall be called holy. You shall do no work on that day: it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your habitations.
23:4 hae sunt ergo feriae Domini sanctae quas celebrare debetis temporibus suis 23:4. These also are the holy days of the Lord, which you must celebrate in their seasons.
23:5 mense primo quartadecima die mensis ad vesperum phase Domini est 23:5. The first month, the fourteenth day of the month at evening, is the phase of the Lord.
23:6 et quintadecima die mensis huius sollemnitas azymorum Domini est septem diebus azyma comedetis 23:6. And the fifteenth day of the same month is the solemnity of the unleavened bread of the Lord. Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread.
23:7 dies primus erit vobis celeberrimus sanctusque omne opus servile non facietis in eo 23:7. The first day shall be most solemn unto you, and holy: you shall do no servile work therein.
23:8 sed offeretis sacrificium in igne Domino septem diebus dies autem septimus erit celebrior et sanctior nullumque servile opus fiet in eo 23:8. But you shall offer sacrifice in fire to the Lord seven days. And the seventh day shall be more solemn, and more holy: and you shall do no servile work therein.
23:9 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens 23:9. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23:10 loquere filiis Israhel et dices ad eos cum ingressi fueritis terram quam ego dabo vobis et messueritis segetem feretis manipulos spicarum primitias messis vestrae ad sacerdotem 23:10. Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: When you shall have entered into the land which I will give you, and shall reap your corn, you shall bring sheaves of ears, the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest.
23:11 qui elevabit fasciculum coram Domino ut acceptabile sit pro vobis altero die sabbati et sanctificabit illum 23:11. Who shall lift up the sheaf before the Lord, the next day after the sabbath, that it may be acceptable for you, and shall sanctify it.
23:12 atque in eodem die quo manipulus consecratur caedetur agnus inmaculatus anniculus in holocaustum Domini 23:12. And on the same day that the sheaf is consecrated, a lamb without blemish of the first year shall be killed for a holocaust of the Lord.
23:13 et libamenta offerentur cum eo duae decimae similae conspersae oleo in incensum Domini odoremque suavissimum liba quoque vini quarta pars hin 23:13. And the libations shall be offered with it: two tenths of flour tempered with oil, for a burnt offering of the Lord, and a most sweet odour. Libations also of wine, the fourth part of a hin.
23:14 panem et pulentam et pultes non comedetis ex segete usque ad diem qua offeratis ex ea Deo vestro praeceptum est sempiternum in generationibus cunctisque habitaculis vestris 23:14. You shall not eat either bread, or parched corn, or frumenty or the harvest, until the day that you shall offer thereof to your God. It is a precept for ever throughout your generations, and all your dwellings.
23:15 numerabitis ergo ab altero die sabbati in quo obtulistis manipulum primitiarum septem ebdomadas plenas 23:15. You shall count therefore from the morrow after the sabbath, wherein you offered the sheaf of firstfruits, seven full weeks.
23:16 usque ad alteram diem expletionis ebdomadae septimae id est quinquaginta dies et sic offeretis sacrificium novum Domino 23:16. Even unto the morrow after the seventh week be expired, that is to say, fifty days: and so you shall offer a new sacrifice to the Lord.
23:17 ex omnibus habitaculis vestris panes primitiarum duos de duabus decimis similae fermentatae quos coquetis in primitias Domini 23:17. Out of all your dwellings, two loaves of the firstfruits, of two tenths of flour leavened, which you shall bake for the firstfruits of the Lord.
23:18 offeretisque cum panibus septem agnos inmaculatos anniculos et vitulum de armento unum et arietes duos et erunt in holocausto cum libamentis suis in odorem suavissimum Domino 23:18. And you shall offer with the loaves seven lambs without blemish of the first year, and one calf from the herd, and they shall be for a holocaust with their two rams: and they shall be for a holocaust with their libations for a most sweet odour to the Lord.
23:19 facietis et hircum pro peccato duosque agnos anniculos hostias pacificorum 23:19. You shall offer also a buck goat for sin, and two lambs of the first year for sacrifices of peace offerings.
23:20 cumque elevaverit eos sacerdos cum panibus primitiarum coram Domino cedent in usum eius 23:20. And when the priest hath lifted them up with the loaves of the firstfruits before the Lord, they shall fall to his use.
23:21 et vocabitis hunc diem celeberrimum atque sanctissimum omne opus servile non facietis in eo legitimum sempiternum erit in cunctis habitaculis et generationibus vestris 23:21. And you shall call this day most solemn, and most holy. You shall do no servile work therein. It shall be an everlasting ordinance in all your dwellings and generations.
23:22 postquam autem messueritis segetem terrae vestrae non secabitis eam usque ad solum nec remanentes spicas colligetis sed pauperibus et peregrinis dimittetis eas ego Dominus Deus vester 23:22. And when you reap the corn of your land, you shall not cut it to the very ground: neither shall you gather the ears that remain. But you shall leave them for the poor and for the strangers. I am the Lord your God.
23:23 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens 23:23. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23:24 loquere filiis Israhel mense septimo prima die mensis erit vobis sabbatum memorabile clangentibus tubis et vocabitur sanctum 23:24.

Upon the tenth day of this seventh month shall be the day of atonement. It shall be most solemn, and shall be called holy: and you shall await your souls on that day, and shall offer a holocaust to the Lord.
23:28 omne opus non facietis in tempore diei huius quia dies propitiationis est ut propitietur vobis Dominus Deus vester 23:28. You shall do no servile work in the time of this day: because it is a day of propitiation, that the Lord your God may be merciful unto you.
23:29 omnis anima quae adflicta non fuerit die hoc peribit de populis suis 23:29. Every soul that is not afflicted on this day, shall perish from among his people.
23:30 et quae operis quippiam fecerit delebo eam de populo suo 23:30. And every soul that shall do any work, the same will I destroy from among his people.
23:31 nihil ergo operis facietis in eo legitimum sempiternum erit vobis in cunctis generationibus et habitationibus vestris 23:31. You shall do no work therefore on that day: it shall be an everlasting ordinance unto you in all your generations, and dwellings.
23:32 sabbatum requietionis est adfligetis animas vestras die nono mensis a vespero usque ad vesperum celebrabitis sabbata vestra 23:32. It is a sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict your souls beginning on the ninth day of the month. From evening until evening you shall celebrate your sabbaths.

23:34 loquere filiis Israhel a quintodecimo die mensis huius septimi erunt feriae tabernaculorum septem diebus Domino 23:34. Say to the children of Israel: From the fifteenth day of this same seventh month, shall be kept the feast of tabernacles, seven days to the Lord.
23:35 dies primus vocabitur celeberrimus atque sanctissimus omne opus servile non facietis 23:35. The first day shall be called most solemn and most holy: you shall do no servile work therein. And seven days you shall offer holocausts to the Lord.
23:36 et septem diebus offeretis holocausta Domino dies quoque octavus erit celeberrimus atque sanctissimus et offeretis holocaustum Domino est enim coetus atque collectae omne opus servile non facietis in eo 23:36. The eighth day also shall be most solemn and most holy: and you shall offer holocausts to the Lord. For it is the day of assembly and congregation. You shall do no servile work therein.
23:37 hae sunt feriae Domini quas vocabitis celeberrimas et sanctissimas offeretisque in eis oblationes Domino holocausta et libamenta iuxta ritum uniuscuiusque diei 23:37. These are the feasts of the Lord which you shall call most solemn and most holy, and shall offer on them oblations to the Lord: holocausts and libations according to the rite of every day.
23:38 exceptis sabbatis Domini donisque vestris et quae offertis ex voto vel quae sponte tribuitis Domino 23:38. Besides the sabbaths of the Lord, and your gifts, and those things that you offer by vow, or which you shall give to the Lord voluntarily.
23:39 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 23:39. So from the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you shall have gathered in all the fruits of your land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord seven days.
