Leviticus 23:23–43

²³The Lord spoke to Moses: ²⁴“Tell the Israelites: In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you are to have a day of complete rest, commemoration, and joyful shouting ^ab—a sacred assembly. ^c25You must not do any daily work, but you must present a fire offering to the Lord.”

²⁶The Lord again spoke to Moses: ²⁷“The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. ^dYou are to hold a sacred assembly and practice self-denial; ^efyou are to present a fire offering to the Lord. ²⁸On this particular day you are not to do any work, for it is a Day of Atonement to make atonement for yourselves before the Lord your God. ²⁹If any person does not practice self-denial on this particular day, he must be cut off from his people. ³⁰I will destroy among his people anyone who does any work on this same day. ³¹You are not to do any work. This is a permanent statute throughout your generations wherever you live. ³²It will be a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you must practice self-denial. You are to observe your Sabbath from the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening.”

³³The Lord spoke to Moses: ³⁴“Tell the Israelites: The Festival of Booths ^ghto the Lord begins on the fifteenth day of this seventh month and continues for seven days. ³⁵There is to be a sacred assembly on the first day; you are not to do any daily work. ³⁶You are to present a fire offering to the Lord for seven days. On the eighth day you are to hold a sacred assembly and present a fire offering to the Lord. It is a solemn gathering; ⁱyou are not to do any daily work.

³⁷“These are the Lord’s appointed times that you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies for presenting fire offerings to the Lord, burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, each on its designated day. ³⁸These are in addition to the offerings for the Lord’s Sabbaths, your gifts, all your vow offerings, and all your freewill offerings that you give to the Lord.

³⁹“You are to celebrate the Lord’s festival on the fifteenth day of the seventh month for seven days after you have gathered the produce of the land. There will be complete rest on the first day and complete rest on the eighth day. ⁴⁰On the first day you are to take the product ^jof majestic trees—palm fronds, ^kboughs of leafy trees, ^land willows of the brook ^m—and rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days. ⁴¹You are to celebrate it as a festival to the Lord seven days each year. This is a permanent statute for you throughout your generations; you must celebrate it in the seventh month. ⁴²You are to live in booths ⁿfor seven days. All the native-born of Israel must live in booths, ⁴³so that your generations may know that I made the Israelites live in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt; I am Yahweh your God.”
