24. “Tell the Israelites: On the first day of the seventh month hold a worship festival. It will be a memorial day, a holy assembly announced by the blowing of rams’ horns.
25. Don’t do any regular work. Bring a sacrifice by fire to the Lord.”
26. The Lord spoke to Moses,
27. “In addition, the tenth day of this seventh month is a special day for the payment for sins. There will be a holy assembly. Humble yourselves, and bring the Lord a sacrifice by fire.
28. Don’t do any work that day. It is a special day for the payment for sins. It is a time when you make peace with the Lord your God.
29. Those who do not humble themselves on that day will be excluded from the people.
30. I will kill those who do any work on that day.
31. Don’t do any work. It is a permanent law for generations to come wherever you live.
