Leviticus 23:19-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

19. One male goat shall be sacrificed as a purification offering, and two yearling lambs as a communion sacrifice.

20. The priest shall elevate them—that is, the two lambs—with the bread of the first-ripened fruits as an elevated offering before the Lord; these shall be sacred to the Lord and belong to the priest.

21. On this same day you shall make a proclamation: there shall be a declared holy day for you; no heavy work may be done. This shall be a perpetual statute through all your generations wherever you dwell.

22. When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not be so thorough that you reap the field to its very edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. These things you shall leave for the poor and the alien. I, the Lord, am your God.

23. The Lord said to Moses:

24. Tell the Israelites: On the first day of the seventh month you will have a sabbath rest, with trumpet blasts as a reminder, a declared holy day;

25. you shall do no heavy work, and you shall offer an oblation to the Lord.

26. The Lord said to Moses:

27. Now the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. You will have a declared holy day. You shall humble yourselves and offer an oblation to the Lord.

28. On this day you shall not do any work, because it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the Lord, your God.

29. Those who do not humble themselves on this day shall be cut off from the people.
