Leviticus 23:26-32

The Voice

Eternal One: ²⁷ The tenth day of the seventh month is set aside as the Day of Atonement. On that day, you must call together the people for a sacred assembly, humble and discipline yourselves by fasting, and bring a fire-offering to Me. ²⁸ Refrain from doing any work on the Day of Atonement, for it is to be a day when you make offerings before Me, your God, that cover your sins. ²⁹ If anyone does not humble and discipline himself on this day, he must be cut off from the community. ³⁰ If anyone from your community works on this day, I will destroy him from the midst of the community. ³¹ You must not do any of the work you normally do. This directive stands for all time throughout your generations regardless of where you live. ³² This is to be a Sabbath Day, a day of complete rest, a day when you humble and discipline yourselves. When the ninth day of the month arrives, you are to honor this Sabbath from dusk till dusk.
