| 21On that same day you are to proclaim a sacred assembly, and you must not do any regular work. This is to be a permanent statute wherever you live for the generations to come. | 21"'On this very day you must proclaim an assembly; it is to be a holy assembly for you. You must not do any regular work. This is a perpetual statute in all the places where you live throughout your generations. |
| 22When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap all the way to the edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and the foreign resident. I am the LORD your God.’ ” | 22When you gather in the harvest of your land, you must not completely harvest the corner of your field, and you must not gather up the gleanings of your harvest. You must leave them for the poor and the foreigner. I am the LORD your God.'" |
| 23The LORD also said to Moses, | 23The LORD spoke to Moses: |
| 24“Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of rest, a sacred assembly announced by trumpet blasts. | 24"Tell the Israelites, 'In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a complete rest, a memorial announced by loud horn blasts, a holy assembly. |

It is to be a holy assembly for you, and you must humble yourselves and present a gift to the LORD. |
| 28On this day you are not to do any work, for it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the LORD your God. | 28You must not do any work on this particular day, because it is a day of atonement to make atonement for yourselves before the LORD your God. |
| 29If anyone does not humble himself on this day, he must be cut off from his people. | 29Indeed, any person who does not behave with humility on this particular day will be cut off from his people. |
| 30I will destroy from among his people anyone who does any work on this day. | 30As for any person who does any work on this particular day, I will exterminate that person from the midst of his people! |
