Leviticus 23:27-29

Good News Translation

The Day of Atonement^(A)

^26-27 (B)The tenth day of the seventh month is the day when the annual ritual is to be performed to take away the sins of the people. On that day do not eat anything at all; come together for worship, and present a food offering to the Lord. ²⁸ Do no work on that day, because it is the day for performing the ritual to take away sin. ²⁹ Any who eat anything on that day will no longer be considered God's people.
