This month shall be to you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it from the sheep or from the goats:

Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.

But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy olive-yard.

Three times thou shalt keep a feast to me in the year.

And the feast of harvest, the first-fruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of in-gathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field.

Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD.

I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land should become desolate, and the beast of the field should multiply against thee.

Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of the first year, day by day continually.

And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year, with the blood of the sin-offering of atonements: once in a year shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy to the LORD.

And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the first-fruits of wheat-harvest, and the feast of in-gathering at the year's end.

Thrice in the year shall all your male children appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.

For I will drive out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy God, thrice in the year.

And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.
