29 “This law will always continue for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month, you must not eat food.[a] You must not do any work. None of the travelers or foreigners living in your land can do any work either. 30 Because on this day, the priest will do this to make you pure and wash away your sins. Then you will be clean to the Lord. 31 You must humble yourselves[b] because this day is a very important day of rest for you. This law will continue forever.
