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.
35. On the first day there shall be a holy assembly; you must not do any regular work.
36. For seven days you must present an offering made by fire to Yahweh. On the eighth day it shall be a holy assembly for you, and you shall present an offering made by fire to Yahweh; it is a celebration; you must not do any regular work.
37. “ ‘These are Yahweh’s festivals, which you must proclaim, holy assemblies to present an offering made by fire to Yahweh—burnt offering and grain offering, sacrifice and libations, each on its proper day—
38. besides Yahweh’s Sabbaths and besides your gifts and besides your vows and besides all your freewill offerings that you give to Yahweh.
39. “ ‘Surely on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, at your gathering the land’s produce, you shall hold Yahweh’s festival for seven days; on the first day there shall be a rest period and on the eighth day a rest period.
40. And on the first day you shall take for yourselves the first fruit of majestic trees, branches of palm trees and branches of a leafy tree and of a brook’s poplar trees, and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God for seven days.
41. And you must hold it as a festival for Yahweh for seven days in the year; it shall be a lasting statute throughout your generations; in the seventh month you must hold it.
42. You must live in the booths for seven days; all the natives in Israel must live in the booths,
43. so that your generations shall know that I made the Israelites live in booths when I brought them from the land of Egypt; I am Yahweh your God.’ ”
44. Thus Moses announced to the Israelites Yahweh’s appointed times.
