And Jehovah spoke to Moses saying,

Also, on the tenth of this seventh month shall be a day of atonement; there shall be a holy gathering, and you shall humble your souls and shall bring a fire offering to Jehovah.

And you shall do no work in this same day, for it is a day of atonement, to atone for you before Jehovah your God.

For any person who is not humbled in this same day shall be cut off from his people.

And any person who does any work in this same day, I shall even destroy that person from the midst of his people.

You shall do no work; it is a never ending statute throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.

It is a sabbath of rest to you, and you shall humble your souls in the ninth of the month at evening; from evening until evening you shall keep your sabbath.
