1. We give our emphasis to the holiness of this day - for it is tremendous and awe filled, the day of the exaltation of your kingship, your throne being established in loving-kindness; you will sit on that throne in truth.2. It is true that you are the one who judges, and reproves, who knows all, and bears witness, who inscribes, and seals, who reckons and enumerates. You remember all that is forgotten.You open the book of records, and from it, all shall be read. For in it lies each person's imprint.
3. And with a great shofar it shall be sounded, and a thin silent voice shall be heard. And the angels will be alarmed, and dread and fear shall seize them as they proclaim: behold!the Day of Judgment on which the hosts of heaven shall be judged, for they too shall not be judged entirely meritorious by you…4. And all mortal creatures shall parade before you like a herd of sheep, lit. the children of the flock. As a shepherd herds his flock, directing his sheep to pass under his staff, so you shall pass, count, and record the souls of all living, and decree a limit to each person’s days, and inscribe their final judgment.5. On Rosh Hashanah it is inscribed, and on Yom Kippur it is sealed - how many shall pass away and how many shall be born, who shall live and who shall die, who in good time, and who by untimely death, who by water and who by fire, who by sword and who by wild beast, who by famine and who by thirst, who by earthquake and who by plague, who by strangulation and who by lapidation.
Who shall have rest and who wander, who shall be at peace and who pursued, who shall be serene and who tormented, who shall become impoverished and who wealthy, who shall be debased, and who exalted.6. But repentance, prayer and righteousness avert the severity of the decree.
For your praise is just as your name. You are slow to anger and quick to be appeased. For you do not desire the death of the condemned, rather, that they turn from their path and live. You wait for them until the very day of their death, and if they repent, you receive them immediately.
7. (It is true -) [For] you are their Creator and You understand their inclination, for they are but flesh and blood. We come from dust, and return to dust. We labour by our lives for bread, we are like broken shards, like dry grass, and like a withered flower; like a passing shadow and a vanishing cloud, like a breeze that passes, like dust that scatters, like a fleeting dream.Whereas you are the Sovereign Being, who lives eternal.
בְּאַרְבָּעָה פְרָקִים הָעוֹלָם נִדּוֹן:
בְּפֶסַח עַל הַתְּבוּאָה,
בַּעֲצֶרֶת עַל פֵּרוֹת הָאִילָן,
בְּרֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה כָּל בָּאֵי הָעוֹלָם עוֹבְרִין לְפָנָיו כִּבְנֵי מָרוֹן, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (תהלים לג) הַיּוֹצֵר יַחַד לִבָּם, הַמֵּבִין אֶל כָּל מַעֲשֵׂיהֶם.
וּבֶחָג נִדּוֹנִין עַל הַמָּיִם:
At four times of the year the world is judged: On Pesach judgment is passed concerning grain; on Shavuot concerning fruits that grow on a tree; on Rosh HaShana, all creatures pass before Him like sheep [benei maron] (or: like infantry - k’v’numerion), as it is stated: “The One who fashions their hearts alike, Who considers all their deeds” (Psalms 33:15); and on the festival of Sukkotthey are judged concerning water, i.e., the rainfall of the coming year.

(8)A sin-offering, which atones for unwitting performance of transgressions punishable by karet, and a definite guilt-offering, which is brought for robbery and misuse of consecrated items, atone for those sins. Death and Yom Kippur atone for sins when accompanied by repentance. Repentance itself atones for minor transgressions, for both positive mitzvot and negative mitzvot. And repentance places punishment for severe transgressions in abeyance until Yom Kippur comes and completely atones for the transgression.

Talmud Bavli, Rosh Hashanah 16b-17aThe Gemara goes back to discuss the Day of Judgment. Rabbi Kruspedai said that Rabbi Yoḥanan said: Three books are opened on Rosh HaShana before the Holy One, blessed be: One of wholly wicked people, and one of wholly righteous people, and one of middling people whose good and bad deeds are fairly balanced.Wholly righteous people are immediately written and sealed for life; wholly wicked people are immediately written and sealed for death; and middling people are left with their judgment suspended from Rosh HaShana until Yom Kippur, their fate remaining undecided. If they merit, through the good deeds and mitzvot that they perform during this period, they are written for life; if they do not so merit, they are written for death.Rabbi Avin said: What is the verse that alludes to this? “Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, but not be written with the righteous” (Psalms 69:29). “Let them be blotted out of the book”; this is the book of wholly wicked people, who are blotted out from the world. “Of the living”; this is the book of wholly righteous people. “But not be written with the righteous”; this is the book of middling people, who are written in a separate book, not with the righteous.Rav Naḥman bar Yitzḥak said: This matter is derived from here: “And if not, blot me, I pray You, out of Your book which you have written” (Exodus 32:32). “Blot me, I pray You”; this is the book of wholly wicked people, who are blotted out from the world. “Out of Your book”; this is the book of wholly righteous people, which is special and attributed to God Himself. “Which You have written”; this is the book of middling people. * * *It is taught in a baraita: Beit Shammai say: There will be three groups of people on the great Day of Judgment at the end of days: One of wholly righteous people, one of wholly wicked people, and one of middling people. Wholly righteous people will immediately be written and sealed for eternal life. Wholly wicked people will immediately be written and sealed for Gehenna, as it is stated: “And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall wake, some to eternal life and some to shame and everlasting contempt” (Daniel 12:2). Middling people will descend to Gehenna to be cleansed and to achieve atonement for their sins,[17a]and they will cry out in their pain and eventually ascend from there, as it is stated: “And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them” (Zechariah 13:9). This is referring to the members of the third group, who require refinement and cleansing. And about them, Hannah said: “The Lord kills, and gives life; he brings down to the grave, and brings up” (I Samuel 2:6).Beit Hillel say: The One who is “and abundant in kindness” (Exodus 34:6) tilts the scales in favor of kindness, so that middling people should not have to pass through Gehenna. And about them, David said: “I love the Lord, Who hears my voice and my supplications” (Psalms 116:1). And about them, David said the entire passage: “I was brought low [daloti] and He saved me” (Psalms 116:6). Although they are poor [dalim] in mitzvot, God saves them.

Speak to the Israelite people thus: In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe complete rest, a sacred occasion commemorated with loud blasts zichron teruah. You shall not work at your occupations; and you shall bring an offering by fire to יהוה.
(ו) עָלָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים בִּתְרוּעָ֑ה יהוה בְּק֣וֹל שׁוֹפָֽר׃
(6) God ascends midst teruah; the LORD, to the shofar’s voice.
(ג) רַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְּרַבִּי נַחְמָן פָּתַח (תהלים מז, ו): עָלָה אֱלֹהִים בִּתְרוּעָה יהוה בְּקוֹל שׁוֹפָר, בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁהַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא יוֹשֵׁב וְעוֹלֶה עַל כִּסֵּא דִּין, בַּדִּין הוּא עוֹלֶה. מַאי טַעַם? עָלָה אֱלֹהִים בִּתְרוּעָה. וּבְשָׁעָה שֶׁיִּשְׂרָאֵל נוֹטְלִין אֶת שׁוֹפְרֵיהֶן וְתוֹקְעִין לִפְנֵי הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, עוֹמֵד מִכִּסֵּא הַדִּין וְיוֹשֵׁב בְּכִסֵּא רַחֲמִים, דִּכְתִיב: יהוה בְּקוֹל שׁוֹפָר, וּמִתְמַלֵּא עֲלֵיהֶם רַחֲמִים וּמְרַחֵם עֲלֵיהֶם וְהוֹפֵךְ עֲלֵיהֶם מִדַּת הַדִּין לְרַחֲמִים. אֵימָתַי? בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי.
(3) Rabbi Yehuda ben Rabbi Naḥman began: “God [elohim] ascends midst teruah; the LORD [ה'], to the shofar’s voice.” (Psalms 47:6). When the Holy One of Blessing sits and ascends on the Throne of Justice, it is with justice [din] that God ascends. How do we know? From the verse -“God [elohim -Elohim being the name of God that represents the attribute of justice - ascends midst teruah.”[But] When Israel take up their shofars and sound [tokin, tekia] them before the Holy One of Blessing, God rises from the Throne of Justice and sits on the Throne of Mercy, as it is written: “The LORD - the Tetragrammaton, translated as LORD, is the name of God that represents the attribute of mercy - to the shofar’s voice.” When? In the seventh month.

(1) Blow a horn tiku shofar in Zion, Sound an alarm on My holy mount! Let all dwellers on earth tremble, For the day of יהוה has come! It is close—

(15) Blow a horn tiku shofar in Zion, Solemnize a fast, Proclaim an assembly!(16) Gather the people, Bid the congregation purify themselves… (17) Between the portico and the altar, Let the priests, יהוה’s ministers, weep and say:
“Oh, spare Your people, יהוה ETERNAL One!..”

(14) The great day of יהוה is approaching, Approaching most swiftly. Hark, the day of יְהֹוָה֙! It is bitter: There a warrior shrieks!(15) That day shall be a day of wrath, A day of trouble and distress, A day of calamity and desolation, A day of darkness and deep gloom, A day of densest clouds,(16) A day of horn blasts and alarms, yom shofar u’teruah— Against the fortified towns And the lofty corner towers.

(27) Raise a standard on earth,
Sound a horn tiku shofar among the nations,
Appoint nations against her,
Assemble kingdoms against her—
Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz—
Designate a marshal against her,
Bring up horses like swarming locusts!

(13) without being touched—by being either stoned or shot— whether beast or person, no trespasser shall live. When the ram’s horn yovel sounds a long blast, they may go up on the mountain.” …
(16) On the third day, as morning dawned, there was thunder and lightning kolot uberakim, and a dense cloud upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the horn kol shofar chazak me’od; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.(17) Moses led the people out of the camp toward God, and they took their places at the foot of the mountain.(18) Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke, for יהוה had come down upon it in fire; the smoke rose like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled violently.(19) The blare of the horn kol ha’shofar grew louder and louder. As Moses spoke, God answered him in thunder kol.

You will hurl tashlich all their sins into the depths of the sea.

(8) and he shall place lots upon the two goats, one marked for יהוה and the other marked for Azazel.(9) Aaron shall bring forward the goat designated by lot for יהוה, which he is to offer as a sin offering;(10) while the goat designated by lot for Azazel shall be left standing alive before יהוה, to make expiation with it and to send it off to the wilderness for Azazel.

(20) When he has finished purging the Shrine, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, the live goat shall be brought forward.(21) Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and transgressions of the Israelites, whatever their sins, putting them on the head of the goat; and it shall be sent off to the wilderness through a designated agent.(22) Thus the goat shall carry on it all their iniquities to an inaccessible region; and the goat shall be set free v’shilach in the wilderness.
