Also, anything they fall on ¹  when they die will become unclean – any wood vessel or garment or article of leather or sackcloth. Any such vessel with which work is done must be immersed in water ²  and will be unclean until the evening. Then it will become clean.

“This is to be a perpetual statute for you. ¹  In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you must humble yourselves ²  and do no work of any kind, ³  both the native citizen and the foreigner who resides ⁴  in your midst,

On the first day there will be a holy assembly for you; you must not do any regular work. ¹ 

You must present a gift to the Lord for seven days, and the seventh day is a holy assembly; you must not do any regular work.’”

“‘On this very day you must proclaim an assembly; it is to be a holy assembly for you. ¹  You must not do any regular work. This is a perpetual statute in all the places where you live throughout your generations. ² 

You must not do any regular work, but ¹  you must present a gift to the Lord.’”

On the first day is a holy assembly; you must do no regular work. ¹

He must be with you as a hired worker, as a resident foreigner; ¹  he must serve with you until the year of jubilee,

He must calculate with the one who bought him the number of years ¹  from the year he sold himself to him until the jubilee year, and the cost of his sale must correspond to the number of years, according to the rate of wages a hired worker would have earned while with him. ² 

He must be with the one who bought him ¹  like a yearly hired worker. ²  The one who bought him ³  must not rule over him harshly in your sight.
