Leviticus 23:22-32

22“ ‘When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the foreigner residing among you. I am the Lord your God.’ ”

23The Lord said to Moses,

24“Say to the Israelites: ‘On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of sabbath rest, a sacred assembly commemorated with trumpet blasts.

25Do no regular work, but present a food offering to the Lord.’ ”

26The Lord said to Moses,

27“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.

28Do 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.

29Those who do not deny themselves on that day must be cut off from their people.

30I will destroy from among their people anyone who does any work on that day.

31You shall do no work at all. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live.

32It is a day of sabbath rest for you, and you must deny yourselves. From the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening you are to observe your sabbath.”
