The Day of Atonement
26 Then[a] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 27 “Surely the Day of Atonement is on the tenth day of the seventh month; it shall be a holy assembly for you, and you shall deny yourselves, and you shall present an offering made by fire to Yahweh. 28 And you must not do any regular work[b] on this very same day,[c] because it is the Day of Atonement to make atonement for you before[d] Yahweh your God. 29 If there is any person who does not deny himself on this very same day,[e] then[f] he shall be cut off from his people. 30 As for[g] any person who does any work on this very same day,[h] I will exterminate that person from the midst of his people. 31 You must not do any work; it is a lasting statute[i] throughout your generations in all your dwellings. 32 It is a Sabbath of complete rest[j] for you, and you shall deny yourselves on the ninth day of the month in the evening—from evening to evening you must observe your extraordinary[k] Sabbath.”

New International Version
The Day of Atonement(A)
26 The Lord said to Moses, 27 “The tenth day of this seventh month(B) is the Day of Atonement.(C) Hold a sacred assembly(D) and deny yourselves,[a] and present a food offering to the Lord. 28 Do not do any work(E) on that day, because it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the Lord your God. 29 Those who do not deny themselves on that day must be cut off from their people.(F) 30 I will destroy from among their people(G) anyone who does any work on that day. 31 You shall do no work at all. This is to be a lasting ordinance(H) for the generations to come, wherever you live. 32 It is a day of sabbath rest(I) for you, and you must deny yourselves. From the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening you are to observe your sabbath.”(J)
