| 27 | “Also the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement; it shall be a holy convocation for you, and you shall humble yourselves [by fasting] and present an offering by fire to the LORD. | “Now 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 and present a food offering to the LORD. | “The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. Hold a sacred assembly and deny yourselves, and present a food offering to the LORD. | |
| 28 | You shall not do any work on this same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement on your behalf before the LORD your God. | 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. | Do not do any work on that day, because it is the Day of Atonement, when atonement is made for you before the LORD your God. | |
| 29 | If there is any person who will not humble himself on this same day, he shall be cut off from his people [excluding him from the atonement made for them]. | For whoever is not afflicted on that very day shall be cut off from his people. | Those who do not deny themselves on that day must be cut off from their people. | |
| 30 | If there is any person who does any work on this same day, I will destroy that person from among his people. | And whoever does any work on that very day, that person I will destroy from among his people. | I will destroy from among their people anyone who does any work on that day. | |
