|
|
8. For six days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh there shall be a solemn meeting in honor of the LORD, your God; on that day you shall not do any sort of work.
|
8. Six H8337 days H3117 thou shalt eat H398 unleavened bread H4682 : and on the seventh H7637 day H3117 shall be a solemn assembly H6116 to the LORD H3068 thy God H430 : thou shalt do H6213 no H3808 work H4399 therein .

|
|
