Leviticus 23:23-25

23 Again the Lord said to Moses,

24 "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.

25 Do not do any work, and bring an offering made by fire to the Lord.'"
