*
Then the LORD spoke to Moses ,
saying ,
* "
Speak to the children of Israel ,
saying : "
The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the LORD .
*
On the first day there shall be a holy convocation .
You shall do no customary work on it .
*
For seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD .
On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation ,
and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD .
It is a sacred assembly ,
and you shall do no customary work on it .
* "
These are the feasts of the LORD which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations ,
to offer an offering made by fire to the LORD ,
a burnt offering and a grain offering ,
a sacrifice and drink offerings ,
everything on its day --
*
besides the Sabbaths of the LORD ,
besides your gifts ,
besides all your vows ,
and besides all your freewill offerings which you give to the LORD .
* "
Also on the fifteenth day of the seventh month ,
when you have gathered in the fruit of the land ,
you shall keep the feast of the LORD for seven days ;
on the first day there shall be a sabbath-rest ,
and on the eighth day a sabbath-rest .
*
And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees ,
branches of palm trees ,
the boughs of leafy trees ,
and willows of the brook ;
and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days .
*
You shall keep it as a feast to the LORD for seven days in the year .
It shall be a statute forever in your generations .
You shall celebrate it in the seventh month .
*
You shall dwell in booths for seven days .
All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths ,
*
that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt :
I am the LORD your God ."'
