Leviticus 23:23-38

Leviticus 23:23-38 NCV

Again the LORD said to Moses, “Tell the people of Israel: ‘On the first day of the seventh month you must have a special day of rest, a holy meeting, when you blow the trumpet for a special time of remembering. Do not do any work, and bring an offering made by fire to the LORD.’ ” The LORD said to Moses, “The Day of Cleansing will be on the tenth day of the seventh month. There will be a holy meeting, and you will deny yourselves and bring an offering made by fire to the LORD. Do not do any work on that day, because it is the Day of Cleansing. On that day the priests will go before the LORD and perform the acts to make you clean from sin so you will belong to the LORD. “Anyone who refuses to give up food on this day must be cut off from the people. If anyone works on this day, I will destroy that person from among the people. You must not do any work at all; this law will continue for people from now on wherever you live. It will be a special day of rest for you, and you must deny yourselves. You will start this special day of rest on the evening after the ninth day of the month, and it will continue from that evening until the next evening.” Again the LORD said to Moses, “Tell the people of Israel: ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month is the Feast of Shelters. This feast to the LORD will continue for seven days. There will be a holy meeting on the first day; do not do any work. You will bring an offering made by fire to the LORD each day for seven days. On the eighth day you will have another holy meeting, and you will bring an offering made by fire to the LORD. This will be a holy meeting; do not do any work. (“ ‘These are the LORD’s special feasts, when there will be holy meetings and when you bring offerings made by fire to the LORD. You will bring whole burnt offerings, grain offerings, sacrifices, and drink offerings—each at the right time. These offerings are in addition to those for the LORD’s Sabbath days, in addition to offerings you give as payment for special promises, and in addition to special offerings you want to give to the LORD.)
