²⁹ “And it shall be a statute to you forever that ^(A)in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall ^(B)afflict yourselves^[a] and shall do no work, either ^(C)the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. ³⁰ For on this day shall atonement be made for you ^(D)to cleanse you. You shall be clean before the Lord from all your sins. ^31 (E)It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall ^(F)afflict yourselves; it is a statute forever. ^32 (G)And the priest who is anointed and ^(H)consecrated as priest in his father's place ^(I)shall make atonement, wearing the holy linen garments. ³³ He shall make atonement for ^(J)the holy sanctuary, and he shall make atonement for the tent of meeting and for ^(K)the altar, and he shall make atonement for ^(L)the priests and for ^(M)all the people of the assembly. ³⁴ And this shall be a statute forever for you, that atonement may be made for the people of Israel ^(N)once in the year because of all their sins.” And Aaron^[b] did as the Lord commanded Moses.

The Day of Atonement

²⁶ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁷ “Now ^(A)on the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. It shall be for you a time of holy convocation, and you shall afflict yourselves^[a] and present a food offering to the Lord. ²⁸ And you shall not do any work on that very day, for it is a Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God. ²⁹ For whoever is not afflicted^[b] on that very day ^(B)shall be cut off from his people. ³⁰ And whoever does any work on that very day, that person I will destroy from among his people. ³¹ You shall not do any work. It is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwelling places. ³² It shall be to you a Sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict yourselves. On the ninth day of the month beginning at evening, from evening to evening shall you keep your Sabbath.”

Offerings for the Day of Atonement

^7 (A)“On the tenth day of this seventh month you shall have a holy convocation and ^(B)afflict yourselves.^[a] You shall do no work, ⁸ but you shall offer a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma: one bull from the herd, one ram, seven male lambs a year old: ^(C)see that they are without blemish. ⁹ And their grain offering shall be of fine flour mixed with oil, three tenths of an ephah for the bull, two tenths for the one ram, ¹⁰ a tenth for each of the seven lambs: ¹¹ also ^(D)one male goat for a sin offering, besides ^(E)the sin offering of atonement, and the regular burnt offering and its grain offering, and their drink offerings.
