Leviticus 16:29

And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:

KJV

Eritque vobis hoc legitimum sempiternum : mense septimo, decima die mensis, affligetis animas vestras, nullumque opus facietis, sive indigena, sive advena qui peregrinatur inter vos.

Vulgate

Καὶ ἔσται τοῦτο ὑμῖν νόμιμον αἰώνιον· ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἑβδόμῳ ταπεινώσατε τὰς ψυχὰς ὑμῶν καὶ πᾶν ἔργον οὐ ποιήσετε, ὁ αὐτόχθων καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος ὁ προσκείμενος ἐν ὑμῖν.

LXX

And it shall be a statute for ever unto you: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and shall do no manner of work, the home-born, or the stranger that sojourneth among you:

ASV

וְ/הָיְתָ֥ה לָ/כֶ֖ם לְ/חֻקַּ֣ת עוֹלָ֑ם בַּ/חֹ֣דֶשׁ הַ֠/שְּׁבִיעִי בֶּֽ/עָשׂ֨וֹר לַ/חֹ֜דֶשׁ תְּעַנּ֣וּ אֶת נַפְשֹֽׁתֵי/כֶ֗ם וְ/כָל מְלָאכָה֙ לֹ֣א תַעֲשׂ֔וּ הָֽ/אֶזְרָ֔ח וְ/הַ/גֵּ֖ר הַ/גָּ֥ר בְּ/תוֹכְ/כֶֽם
