Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them, When ye shall come into the land which I give to you, and ye reaped its harvest, and brought a handful of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest: And he lifted up the handful before Jehovah for your acceptance: on the morrow of the Sabbath the priest shall lift it up.
And go to the priest which shall be in those days, and say to him, I announced this day to Jehovah thy God, that I came to the land which Jehovah aware to our fathers to give to us. And the priest took from thy hand the basket and set it down before the altar of Jehovah thy God.
