³⁴ “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On ^(A)the fifteenth of this ^[a]seventh month is the ^(B)Feast of Booths for seven days to the Lord. ³⁵ On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall ^(C)not do any laborious work. ^36 (D)For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord. On ^(E)the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the Lord; it is an assembly. You shall not do any laborious work.

³⁷ ‘These are ^(F)the appointed times of the Lord which you shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present offerings by fire to the Lord—burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, ^(G)each day’s matter on its own day— ³⁸ besides those of the Sabbaths of the Lord, and besides your gifts and besides all your ^[b]vowed and ^[c]voluntary offerings, which you give to the Lord.

³⁹ ‘On exactly the fifteenth day of the seventh month, ^(H)when you have gathered in the crops of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord for seven days, with a ^[d]rest on the first day and a ^[e]rest on the eighth day. ⁴⁰ Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the ^[f]foliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and branches of trees with thick branches and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days. ⁴¹ So you shall celebrate it as a feast to the Lord for seven days in the year. It shall be a permanent statute throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month. ⁴² You shall live ^(I)in booths for seven days; all the native-born in Israel shall live in booths, ⁴³ so that ^(J)your generations may know that I had the sons of Israel live in booths when I brought them out from the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’” ⁴⁴ So Moses declared to the sons of Israel ^(K)the appointed times of the Lord.
