Exodus 23:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶ “Celebrate the Festival of the Harvest with the first produce harvested from whatever you plant in your fields.

“Celebrate the Festival of the Final Harvest at the end of the year when you harvest your crops from the fields.

¹⁷ “These are the three times each year that all your men must come into the presence of the Master, the Lord.

¹⁸ “Never offer the blood of a sacrifice to me at the same time you offer anything containing yeast. The fat sacrificed at my festivals should never be left over in the morning.
