Leviticus 16:31 in Context — Leviticus 16
29 E isto tereis por estatuto perpétuo: No mês sétimo, aos dez do mês, afligireis vossas almas, e nenhuma obra fareis, nem o natural nem o estrangeiro que peregrina entre vós:
30 Porque neste dia se vos reconciliará para limpar-vos; e sereis limpos de todos vossos pecados diante do SENHOR.
31 Sábado de repouso é para vós, e afligireis vossas almas, por estatuto perpétuo.
32 E fará a reconciliação o sacerdote que for ungido, e cuja mão houver sido cheia para ser sacerdote em lugar de seu pai; e se vestirá as vestimentas de linho, as vestiduras sagradas:
33 E expiará o santuário santo, e o tabernáculo do testemunho; expiará também o altar, e aos sacerdotes, e a todo o povo da congregação.
