It is a statute forever throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month. 42 (E)You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All native Israelites shall dwell in booths, 43 that (F)your generations may know that I made the people of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.”
