Leviticus 23:27-44 ▼

27 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, Also the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement; it shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall humble yourselves and offer an offering made by fire to the LORD.

28 And you shall do no work on this same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God.

29 For whatever person it be who does not humble himself on this same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.

30 And whatever person it be who does any work on this same day, the same person will I destroy from among his people.

31 You shall do no manner of work; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32 It is the sabbath of sabbaths to you, and you shall humble yourselves; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, shall you keep your sabbaths.

33 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

34 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month you shall keep the feast of tabernacles for seven days to the LORD.

35 The first day shall be a holy convocation to you; you shall do no manner of work thereon.

36 Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD; the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD; and you shall be assembled together; and you shall do no manner of work thereon.

37 These are the feasts of the LORD, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer on them offerings made by fire to the LORD, burnt offerings and a meal offering and drink offerings and sacrifices, as it is due on each day;

38 Besides the sabbaths of the LORD, and besides your offerings, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill offerings, which you give to the LORD.

39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the produce of the land, you shall celebrate a feast to the LORD for seven days; on the first day shall be suspension of labor, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest.

40 And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruits of goodly trees, citron, branches of palm trees, myrtle, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days, all the people of the house of Israel.

41 And you shall keep this feast to the LORD seven days in the year. It is a statute for ever throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

42 You shall dwell in huts seven days; all the house of Israel shall dwell in huts,

43 That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in huts when I brought them out of the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.

44 And Moses declared to the children of Israel the feasts of the LORD.
