Leviticus 23:22-34 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

22. And when you reap the harvest of your land, you must not finish the edge of your field at your reaping, and you must not glean the remnants of your harvest—you shall leave them behind for the needy and for the alien; I am Yahweh your God.’ ”

23. Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

24. “Speak to the Israelites, saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a rest period, a remembrance of the trumpet blast, a holy assembly.

25. You must not do any regular work, and you shall present an offering made by fire to Yahweh.’ ”

26. Then 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 on this very same day, because it is the Day of Atonement to make atonement for you before Yahweh your God.

29. If there is any person who does not deny himself on this very same day, then he shall be cut off from his people.

30. As for any person who does any work on this very same day, I will exterminate that person from the midst of his people.

31. You must not do any work; it is a lasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32. It is a Sabbath of complete rest 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 Sabbath.”

33. Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

34. “Speak to the Israelites, saying, ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, this shall be the Feast of Booths for seven days for Yahweh.
