Leviticus 16:29-31
Contemporary English Version
The Lord told Moses to say to the people:
29 (A) On the tenth day of the seventh month[a] of each year, you must go without eating to show sorrow for your sins, and no one, including foreigners who live among you, is allowed to work. 30 This is the day on which the sacrifice for the forgiveness of your sins will be made in my presence, 31 and from now on, it must be celebrated each year. Go without eating and make this a day of complete rest just like the Sabbath.
