Exegesis
The main clause ševaʿ šabbatōt temīmōt tihyēnāh {שֶׁבַע שַׁבָּת֖וֹת תְּמִימֹת תִּהְיֶינָה | šē-vaʿ šab-bā-tōt tə-mī-mōt tī-hyē-nāh} emphasizes completion and ritual purity through adjective agreement and the postpositive verb. English structure preserves Hebrew order and highlights the participatory nature of counting, the link between worship and time, and the concept of wholeness.
In context — Leviticus 23:15
And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath , from the day you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, seven complete Sabbaths there shall be.
