תְּנוּפָה שְׁתַּיִם שְׁנֵי עֶשְׂרֹנִים סֹלֶת
תִּהְיֶינָה חָמֵץ תֵּאָפֶינָה בִּכּוּרִים

שְׂעִיר־עִזִּים אֶחָד לְחַטָּאת וּשְׁנֵי
כְבָשִׂים בְּנֵי שָׁנָה לְזֶבַח שְׁלָמִים:
וְהֵנִיף הַכֹּהֵן | אֹתָם עַל לֶחֶם
הַבִּכּוּרִים תְּנוּפָה לִפְנֵי יְהוָה עַל־
שְׁנֵי כְבָשִׂים קֹדֶשׁ יִהְיוּ לַיהוָה
לַכֹּהֵן: וּקְרָאתֶם בְּעֶצֶם | הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה
מִקְרָא־קֹדֶשׁ יִהְיֶה לָכֶם כָּל־מְלֶאכֶת
עֲבֹדָה לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ חֻקַּת עוֹלָם בְּכָל־
מוֹשְׁבֹתֵיכֶם לְדֹרֹתֵיכֶם: וּבְקֻצְרְכֶם
אֶת־קְצִיר אַרְצְכֶם לֹא־תְכַלֶּה פְּאַת
שָׂדְךָ בְּקֻצְרֶךָ וְלֶקֶט קְצִירְךָ לֹא
