The Feast of Tabernacles^(A)

³³Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ³⁴“Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ^(B)‘The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the Lord. ³⁵On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it. ³⁶For seven days you shall offer an ^(C)offering made by fire to the Lord. ^(D)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 ^(E)sacred^[a] assembly, and you shall do no customary work on it.

³⁷^(F)‘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— ³⁸^(G)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.

³⁹‘Also on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have ^(H)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. ⁴⁰And ^(I)you shall take for yourselves on the first day the ^[b]fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palm trees, the boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook; ^(J)and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days. ⁴¹^(K)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. ⁴²^(L)You shall dwell in ^[c]booths for seven days. ^(M)All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths, ⁴³^(N)that your generations may ^(O)know that I made the children of Israel dwell in booths when ^(P)I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.’ ”
