27 “However, on the tenth of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement.+ You should observe a holy convention, and you must afflict yourselves*+ and present an offering made by fire to Jehovah. 28 You are not to do any sort of work on this particular day because it is a day of atonement to make atonement+ for you before Jehovah your God. 29 Anyone* who will not afflict himself* on this day will be cut off* from his people.+ 30 And I will destroy from among his people every person* who does any sort of work on this day. 31 You must not do any sort of work. It is a lasting statute for all your generations wherever you dwell.
