40. On the first day you will take good fruit from the fruit trees. And you will take branches from palm, poplars and other leafy trees. You will celebrate before the Lord your God for seven days.

41. Celebrate this festival to the Lord for seven days each year. This law will continue from now on. You will celebrate it in the seventh month.

42. Live in shelters for seven days. All the people born in Israel must live in shelters.

43. This is so that all your descendants will know I made Israel live in shelters. It was during the time I brought them out of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’”

44. So Moses told the people of Israel about all of the Lord’s appointed feast days.
