Leviticus 23:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

The Offering of First Fruits

⁹ The Lord spoke to Moses: ¹⁰ Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you and you reap its harvest, you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest. ¹¹ He shall raise the sheaf before the Lord, that you may find acceptance; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall raise it.
