Leviticus 23:24-42

24“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘1In the 2seventh month on the first of the month you shall have a 3rest, a 4reminder by blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. 25You shall 5not do any laborious work, but you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord.’”

26Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 27“On exactly 6the tenth day of this seventh month is 7the Day of Atonement; it shall be a holy convocation for you, and you shall humble 8yourselves and present an offering by fire to the Lord. 28You shall not do any work on this very day, for it is a 9Day of Atonement, 10to make atonement on your behalf before the Lord your God. 29If there is any 11person who does not humble himself on this very day, 12he shall be cut off from his people. 30As for any person who does any work on this very day, that person I will eliminate from among his people. 31You shall not do any work. It is to be a permanent statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places. 32It is to be a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you shall humble 13yourselves; on the ninth of the month at evening, from evening until evening, you shall keep your Sabbath.”

33Again the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 34“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On 14the fifteenth of this 15seventh month is the 16Feast of Booths for seven days to the Lord. 35On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall 17not do any laborious work. 36 18For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord. On 19the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the Lord; it is an assembly. You shall not do any laborious work.

37‘These are 20the appointed times of the Lord which you shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present offerings by fire to the Lord--burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, 21each day’s matter on its own day-- 38besides those of the Sabbaths of the Lord, and besides your gifts and besides all your 22vowed and 23voluntary offerings, which you give to the Lord.

39‘On exactly the fifteenth day of the seventh month, 24when you have gathered in the crops of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord for seven days, with a 25rest on the first day and a 26rest on the eighth day. 40Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the 27foliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and branches of trees with thick branches and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days. 41So you shall celebrate it as a feast to the Lord for seven days in the year. It shall be a permanent statute throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month. 42You shall live 28in booths for seven days; all the native-born in Israel shall live in booths,
