Leviticus 23:19-33

¹⁹Ye shall make also a goat buck for sin, and two lambs of one year, the sacrifices of peaceable things. (Ye shall also offer a goat buck for a sin offering, and two lambs of one year for a peace offering.)

²⁰And when the priest hath raised those (up, or waved them), with the loaves of the first fruits, (as a special gift) before the Lord, those shall fall into the priest’s use (or they shall belong to the priest).

²¹And ye shall call this day most solemn, and most holy; ye shall not do therein any servile work; it shall be a lawful thing everlasting in all your dwellings, and generations. (And on this day there shall be a holy gathering; ye shall not do any daily work on it; this shall be an everlasting law for all your generations, in all your dwelling places.)

²²Forsooth after that ye have reaped the corn of your land, ye shall not cut it till to the ground, neither ye shall gather the ears of corn that abide, but ye shall leave those to poor men and pilgrims; I am the Lord your God. (And when ye harvest your land, ye shall not cut the corners of the land down to the ground, nor shall ye gather up all the ears of corn that be left, but ye shall leave them for the poor and for foreigners; I am the Lord your God.)

²³And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,

²⁴Speak thou to the sons of Israel, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall be a sabbath, (a) memorial to you, sounding with trumps, and it shall be called holy; (Say thou to the Israelites, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, shall be a Sabbath day of rest for you, and there shall be a holy gathering, with the sounding of trumpets;)

²⁵ye shall not do any servile work therein (or ye shall not do any daily work on it), and ye shall offer (a) burnt sacrifice to the Lord.

²⁶And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,

²⁷In the tenth day of this seventh month, the day of cleansings shall be most solemn, and it shall be called holy; and ye shall torment your souls to God, and ye shall offer burnt sacrifice to the Lord; (And on the tenth day of this seventh month, shall be the most solemn Day of Cleansing, or the Day of Atonement, and there shall be a holy gathering; and ye shall torment your souls before God, and ye shall offer a burnt sacrifice to the Lord;)

²⁸ye shall not do any work in the time of this day, for it is the day of cleansing, that your Lord God be merciful to you. (ye shall not do any work on this day, for it is the Day of Cleansing, or the Day of Atonement, so that the Lord your God shall be merciful to you.)

²⁹Each man which is not tormented in this day, shall perish from his peoples, (Anyone who shall not torment himself on this day, shall be cut off from among his people,)

³⁰and I shall do away from his people that man that doeth anything of work in that day; (and I shall do away from his people anyone who doeth any work on that day;)

³¹therefore ye shall not do anything of work in that day; it shall be a lawful thing everlasting to you in all your generations and dwellings; (and so ye shall not do any work on that day; this shall be an everlasting law for you for all your generations, in all your dwelling places;)

³²it is the sabbath of resting. Ye shall therein torment your souls from the ninth day of the month; from the eventide till to (the next) eventide ye shall hallow your sabbaths. (it is the Sabbath day of rest, and on it ye shall torment your souls; yea, on the ninth day of the month, from the evening until the next evening, ye shall keep your Sabbath holy, that is, keep this sacred day of rest.)

³³And the Lord spake to Moses, and said,
