在赎罪日这个犹太教中最神圣的日子，梅拉尼亚和我向所有犹太人致以最热情 的问候。

赎罪日是赎罪、祈祷和禁食的一天，也是“忏悔的十天”的最后一天。赎罪日是一个通过悔改来接近上帝的机会，悔改要遵循《利未记》的表述：“因在这日要为你们赎罪，使你们洁净。你们要在主面前得以洁净，脱尽一切罪愆。”

梅拉尼亚和我祈祷你们的名字都能被记在生命册上，希望这段反思和忏悔的时间带来与上帝更深层次的关系。我们送上最美好的祝愿，愿各位过一个有意义的赎罪日，并且“愿你们的名字被永远记在生命册上”。

Presidential Message on Yom Kippur

Melania and I send our warmest greetings to all Jewish people on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish faith.

Yom Kippur is a day of atonement, prayer, and fasting, and is the last day of the Ten Days of Repentance.  Yom Kippur provides an opportunity to draw nearer to God through the practice of teshuva in accordance with the words of Leviticus: “For on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins shall ye be clean before the Lord.”

Melania and I pray that you are all inscribed in the Book of Life and hope this period of reflection and repentance leads to a deeper relationship with God.  We send our best wishes for a meaningful Yom Kippur and a Gmar Chatima Tova.
