Leviticus 23:23-29 God's Word Translation (GW)

23. The Lord spoke to Moses,

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.
