Leviticus 23:26-32
Lexham English Bible
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.”
