1:1 And Jehovah called to Moses and spoke to him out of the tent
of meeting, saying,
1:2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When
any man of you presenteth an offering to Jehovah, ye shall
present your offering of the cattle, of the herd and of the
flock.
1:3 If his offering be a burnt-offering of the herd, he shall
present it a male without blemish: at the entrance of the tent
of meeting shall he present it, for his acceptance before
Jehovah.
1:4 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt-offering;
and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
1:5 And he shall slaughter the bullock before Jehovah; and
Aaron's sons, the priests, shall present the blood and sprinkle
the blood round about on the altar that is at the entrance of
the tent of meeting.
1:6 And he shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it up into its
pieces.
1:7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the
altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;
1:8 and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the
head, and the fat, in order on the wood that is on the fire
which is on the altar;
1:9 but its inwards and its legs shall he wash in water; and the
priest shall burn all on the altar, a burnt-offering, an
offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
1:10 And if his offering be of the flock, of the sheep or of the
goats, for a burnt-offering, he shall present it a male without
blemish.
1:11 And he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar
northward before Jehovah; and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall
sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.
1:12 And he shall cut it into its pieces, and its head, and its
fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is
on the fire which is on the altar;
1:13 but the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water; and
the priest shall present [it] all, and burn [it] on the altar:
it is a burnt-offering, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a
sweet odour.
1:14 And if his offering to Jehovah be a burnt-offering of
fowls, then he shall present his offering of turtle-doves, or
of young pigeons.
1:15 And the priest shall bring it near to the altar and pinch
off its head and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be
pressed out at the side of the altar.
1:16 And he shall remove its crop with its feathers, and cast it
beside the altar on the east, into the place of the ashes;
1:17 and he shall split it open at its wings, [but] shall not
divide [it] asunder; and the priest shall burn it on the altar
on the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt-offering, an
offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
2:1 And when any one will present an oblation to Jehovah, his
offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it,
and put frankincense thereon.
2:2 And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests; and he
shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of
the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the
priest shall burn the memorial thereof on the altar, an
offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
2:3 And the remainder of the oblation shall be Aaron's and his
sons': [it is] most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.
2:4 And if thou present an offering of an oblation baken in the
oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with
oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
2:5 And if thine offering be an oblation [baken] on the pan, it
shall be fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
2:6 Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it is an
oblation.
2:7 And if thine offering be an oblation [prepared] in the
cauldron, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
2:8 And thou shalt bring the oblation that is made of these
things to Jehovah; and it shall be presented to the priest, and
he shall bring it to the altar.
2:9 And the priest shall take from the oblation a memorial
thereof, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering by fire to
Jehovah of a sweet odour.
2:10 And the remainder of the oblation [shall be] Aaron's and
his sons': [it is] most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.
2:11 No oblation which ye shall present to Jehovah shall be made
with leaven; for no leaven and no honey shall ye burn [in] any
fire-offering to Jehovah.
2:12 As to the offering of the first-fruits, ye shall present
them to Jehovah; but they shall not be offered upon the altar
for a sweet odour.
2:13 And every offering of thine oblation shalt thou season with
salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy
God to be lacking from thine oblation: with all thine offerings
thou shalt offer salt.
2:14 And if thou present an oblation of thy first-fruits to
Jehovah, thou shalt present as the oblation of thy first-fruits
green ears of corn roasted in fire, corn beaten out of full
ears.
2:15 And thou shalt put oil on it, and lay frankincense thereon:
it is an oblation.
2:16 And the priest shall burn the memorial thereof, [part] of
the beaten corn thereof, and [part] of the oil thereof, with
all the frankincense thereof: [it is] an offering by fire to
Jehovah.
3:1 And if his offering be a sacrifice of peace-offering, -- if
he present [it] of the herd, whether a male or female, he shall
present it without blemish before Jehovah.
3:2 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and
slaughter it at the entrance of the tent of meeting; and
Aaron's sons, the priests, shall sprinkle the blood on the
altar round about.
3:3 And he shall present of the sacrifice of peace-offering an
offering by fire to Jehovah; the fat that covereth the inwards,
and all the fat that is on the inwards,
3:4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is
by the flanks, and the net above the liver which he shall take
away as far as the kidneys;
3:5 and Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the
burnt-offering which [lieth] on the wood that is upon the fire:
[it is] an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
3:6 And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace-offering to
Jehovah be of small cattle, male or female, he shall present it
without blemish.
3:7 If he present a sheep for his offering, then shall he
present it before Jehovah,
3:8 and shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and
slaughter it before the tent of meeting; and Aaron's sons shall
sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about.
3:9 And he shall present of the sacrifice of peace-offering an
offering by fire to Jehovah; the fat thereof, the whole fat
tail, which he shall take off close by the backbone, and the
fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is on the
inwards,
3:10 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is
by the flanks, and the net above the liver which he shall take
away as far as the kidneys;
3:11 and the priest shall burn it on the altar: [it is] the food
of the offering by fire to Jehovah.
3:12 And if his offering be a goat, then he shall present it
before Jehovah.
3:13 And he shall lay his hand on the head of it, and slaughter
it before the tent of meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall
sprinkle the blood thereof on the altar round about.
3:14 And he shall present thereof his offering, an offering by
fire to Jehovah; the fat that covereth the inwards and all the
fat that is on the inwards,
3:15 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is
by the flanks, and the net above the liver which he shall take
away as far as the kidneys;
3:16 and the priest shall burn them on the altar: [it is] the
food of the offering by fire for a sweet odour. All the fat
[shall be] Jehovah's.
3:17 [It is] an everlasting statute for your generations
throughout all your dwellings: no fat and no blood shall ye
eat.
4:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
4:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall
sin through inadvertence against any of the commandments of
Jehovah [in things] that ought not to be done, and do any of
them;
4:3 if the priest that is anointed sin according to the trespass
of the people; then for his sin which he hath sinned shall he
present a young bullock without blemish to Jehovah for a
sin-offering.
4:4 And he shall bring the bullock to the entrance of the tent
of meeting before Jehovah; and shall lay his hand on the
bullock's head, and slaughter the bullock before Jehovah.
4:5 And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock's
blood, and bring it into the tent of meeting;
4:6 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and
sprinkle of the blood seven times before Jehovah before the
veil of the sanctuary;
4:7 and the priest shall put of the blood on the horns of the
altar of fragrant incense, which is in the tent of meeting,
before Jehovah; and he shall pour all the blood of the bullock
at the bottom of the altar of burnt-offering, which is at the
entrance of the tent of meeting.
4:8 And all the fat of the bullock of the sin-offering shall he
take off from it; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all
the fat that is on the inwards,
4:9 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is
by the flanks, and the net above the liver which he shall take
away as far as the kidneys,
4:10 as it is taken off from the ox of the sacrifice of
peace-offering; and the priest shall burn them on the altar of
burnt-offering.
4:11 And the skin of the bullock, and all its flesh, with its
head, and with its legs, and its inwards, and its dung,
4:12 even the whole bullock shall he carry forth outside the
camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and
burn it on wood with fire; where the ashes are poured out shall
it be burnt.
4:13 And if the whole assembly of Israel sin inadvertently, and
the thing be hid from the eyes of the congregation, and they do
[somewhat against] any of all the commandments of Jehovah [in
things] which should not be done, and are guilty;
4:14 and the sin wherewith they have sinned against it have
become known; then the congregation shall present a young
bullock for the sin-offering, and shall bring it before the
tent of meeting;
4:15 and the elders of the assembly shall lay their hands on the
head of the bullock before Jehovah; and one shall slaughter the
bullock before Jehovah.
4:16 And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the
bullock's blood into the tent of meeting;
4:17 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and
sprinkle it seven times before Jehovah, before the veil;
4:18 and he shall put of the blood on the horns of the altar
that is before Jehovah which is in the tent of meeting; and he
shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of
burnt-offering, which is at the entrance of the tent of
meeting.
4:19 And all its fat shall he take off from it and burn on the
altar.
4:20 And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock
of sin-offering: so shall he do with it. And the priest shall
make atonement for them; and it shall be forgiven them.
4:21 And he shall carry forth the bullock outside the camp, and
burn it as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin-offering of
the congregation.
4:22 When a prince sinneth and through inadvertence doeth
[somewhat against] any of all the commandments of Jehovah his
God [in things] which should not be done, and is guilty;
4:23 if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge,
he shall bring his offering, a buck of the goats, a male
without blemish.
4:24 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and
slaughter it at the place where they slaughter the
burnt-offering before Jehovah: it is a sin-offering.
4:25 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering
with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of
burnt-offering, and shall pour out its blood at the bottom of
the altar of burnt-offering.
4:26 And he shall burn all its fat on the altar, as the fat of
the sacrifice of peace-offering; and the priest shall make
atonement for him [to cleanse him] from his sin, and it shall
be forgiven him.
4:27 And if any one of the people of the land sin through
inadvertence, that he do [somewhat against] any of the
commandments of Jehovah [in things] which should not be done,
and be guilty;
4:28 if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge,
then he shall bring his offering, a goat, a female without
blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
4:29 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin-offering,
and slaughter the sin-offering at the place of the
burnt-offering.
4:30 And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his
finger, and put [it] on the horns of the altar of
burnt-offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar.
4:31 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is
taken away from off the sacrifice of peace-offering; and the
priest shall burn it on the altar, for a sweet odour to
Jehovah; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and it
shall be forgiven him.
4:32 And if he bring a sheep for his offering for sin, a female
without blemish shall he bring it.
4:33 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin-offering,
and slaughter it for a sin-offering at the place where they
slaughter the burnt-offering.
4:34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering
with his finger, and put [it] on the horns of the altar of
burnt-offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar.
4:35 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of
the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of peace-offering;
and the priest shall burn them on the altar, with Jehovah's
offerings by fire; and the priest shall make atonement for him
concerning his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be
forgiven him.
5:1 And if any one sin, and hear the voice of adjuration, and he
is a witness whether he hath seen or known [it], if he do not
give information, then he shall bear his iniquity.
5:2 Or if any one touch any unclean thing, whether it be the
carcase of an unclean beast, or the carcase of unclean cattle,
or the carcase of an unclean crawling thing, and it be hid from
him, -- he also is unclean and guilty;
5:3 or if he touch the uncleanness of man, any uncleanness of
him by which he is defiled, and it be hid from him, when he
knoweth [it], then he is guilty.
5:4 Or if any one swear, talking rashly with the lips, to do
evil or to do good, in everything that a man shall say rashly
with an oath, and it be hid from him, when he knoweth [it],
then is he guilty in one of these.
5:5 And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these,
that he shall confess wherein he hath sinned;
5:6 and he shall bring his trespass-offering to Jehovah for his
sin which he hath sinned, a female from the small cattle, a
sheep or doe goat, for a sin-offering; and the priest shall
make atonement for him [to cleanse him] from his sin.
5:7 And if his hand be not able to bring what is so much as a
sheep, then he shall bring for his trespass which he hath
sinned two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, to Jehovah; one
for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering.
5:8 And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall present
that which is for the sin-offering first, and pinch off his
head at the neck, but shall not divide it;
5:9 and he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin-offering on
the wall of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung
out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin-offering.
5:10 And he shall offer the other for a burnt-offering,
according to the ordinance. And the priest shall make atonement
for him [to cleanse him] from his sin which he hath sinned, and
it shall be forgiven him.
5:11 But if his hand cannot attain to two turtle-doves, or two
young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering
the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin-offering: he
shall put no oil on it, neither shall he put frankincense
thereon; for it is a sin-offering.
5:12 And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall
take his handful of it, the memorial thereof, and burn it on
the altar, with Jehovah's offerings by fire: it is a
sin-offering.
5:13 And the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his
sin which he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be
forgiven him; and it shall be the priest's, as the oblation.
5:14 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
5:15 If any one act unfaithfully and sin through inadvertence in
the holy things of Jehovah, then he shall bring his
trespass-offering to Jehovah, a ram without blemish out of the
small cattle, according to thy valuation by shekels of silver,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for a
trespass-offering.
5:16 And he shall make restitution for the wrong that he hath
done in the holy things, and shall add the fifth part thereto,
and shall give it unto the priest; and the priest shall make
atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering, and it
shall be forgiven him.
5:17 And if any one sin and do against any of all the
commandments of Jehovah what should not be done, and hath not
known [it], yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.
5:18 And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the small
cattle, according to thy valuation, as trespass-offering, unto
the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him
concerning his inadvertence wherein he sinned inadvertently,
and knew [it] not, and it shall be forgiven him.
5:19 It is a trespass-offering: he hath certainly trespassed
against Jehovah.
6:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
6:2 If any one sin and act unfaithfully against Jehovah, and lie
to his neighbour as to an entrusted thing or a deposit or [that
in which] he hath robbed or wronged his neighbour,
6:3 or have found what was lost, and denieth it, and sweareth
falsely in anything of all that man doeth, sinning therein;
6:4 then it shall be, if he hath sinned and transgressed, that
he shall restore what he robbed or that in which he hath
defrauded, or the deposit, or the lost thing which he found,
6:5 or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; and he shall
restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more
thereto; to [him to] whom it belongeth shall he give it, on the
day of his trespass-offering.
6:6 And his trespass-offering shall he bring to Jehovah, a ram
without blemish out of the small cattle according to thy
valuation, as a trespass-offering, unto the priest.
6:7 And the priest shall make atonement for him before Jehovah,
and it shall be forgiven him concerning anything of all that he
hath done so as to trespass therein.
6:8 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
6:9 Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the
burnt-offering; this, the burnt-offering, shall be on the
hearth on the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of
the altar shall be kept burning on it.
6:10 And the priest shall put on his linen raiment, and his
linen breeches shall he put on his flesh, and take up the ashes
to which the fire hath consumed the burnt-offering on the
altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.
6:11 And he shall put off his garments, and put on other
garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto a
clean place.
6:12 And the fire upon the altar shall be kept burning on it: it
shall not be put out; and the priest shall burn wood on it
every morning, and lay the burnt-offering in order upon it; and
he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace-offerings.
6:13 A continual fire shall be kept burning on the altar: it
shall never go out.
6:14 And this is the law of the oblation: [one of] the sons of
Aaron shall present it before Jehovah, before the altar.
6:15 And he shall take of it his handful of the fine flour of
the oblation, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense
which is on the meat-offering, and shall burn [it] on the
altar: [it is] a sweet odour of the memorial thereof to
Jehovah.
6:16 And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat:
unleavened shall it be eaten in a holy place; in the court of
the tent of meeting shall they eat it.
6:17 It shall not be baken with leaven. As their portion have I
given it [unto them] of my offerings by fire: it is most holy;
as the sin-offering, and as the trespass-offering.
6:18 All the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it.
[It is] an everlasting statute in your generations, [their
portion] of Jehovah's offerings by fire: whatever toucheth
these shall be holy.
6:19 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
6:20 This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they
shall present to Jehovah on the day when he is anointed: the
tenth part of an ephah of fine flour as a continual oblation,
half of it in the morning, and half thereof at night.
6:21 It shall be prepared in the pan with oil: saturated with
oil shalt thou bring it: baken pieces of the oblation shalt
thou present [for] a sweet odour to Jehovah.
6:22 And the priest who is anointed of his sons in his stead
shall prepare it: [it is] an everlasting statute; it shall be
wholly burned to Jehovah.
6:23 And every oblation of the priest shall be wholly burned; it
shall not be eaten.
6:24 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
6:25 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law
of the sin-offering. At the place where the burnt-offering is
slaughtered shall the sin-offering be slaughtered before
Jehovah: it is most holy.
6:26 The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in a holy
place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tent of meeting.
6:27 Everything that toucheth the flesh thereof shall be holy;
and if there be splashed of the blood thereof on a garment --
that whereon it is sprinkled shalt thou wash in a holy place.
6:28 And the earthen vessel wherein it hath been sodden shall be
broken; and if it have been sodden in a copper pot, it shall be
both scoured and rinsed with water.
6:29 All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is
most holy.
6:30 And no sin-offering whereof blood hath been brought to the
tent of meeting, to make atonement in the sanctuary, shall be
eaten: it shall be burned with fire.
7:1 And this is the law of the trespass-offering -- it is most
holy:
7:2 in the place where they slaughter the burnt-offering shall
they slaughter the trespass-offering; and the blood thereof
shall he sprinkle on the altar round about.
7:3 And he shall present of it all the fat thereof; the fat tail
and the fat that covereth the inwards,
7:4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is
by the flanks, and the net above the liver, which he shall take
away as far as the kidneys.
7:5 And the priest shall burn them on the altar, an offering by
fire to Jehovah: it is a trespass-offering.
7:6 Every male among the priests shall eat thereof; in a holy
place shall it be eaten: it is most holy.
7:7 As the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering; [there
shall] be one law for them: it shall be the priest's who maketh
atonement therewith.
7:8 And [as to] the priest that presenteth any man's
burnt-offering, the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath
presented shall be the priest's for himself.
7:9 And every oblation that is baken in the oven, and all that
is prepared in the cauldron and in the pan, shall be the
priest's who offereth it; to him it shall belong.
7:10 And every oblation, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all
the sons of Aaron have, one as the other.
7:11 And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace-offering,
which [a man] shall present to Jehovah.
7:12 If he present it for a thanksgiving, then he shall present
with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled
with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine
flour saturated with oil, cakes mingled with oil.
7:13 Besides the cakes, he shall present his offering of
leavened bread with the sacrifice of his peace-offering of
thanksgiving.
7:14 And of it he shall present one out of the whole offering as
a heave-offering to Jehovah; to the priest that sprinkleth the
blood of the peace-offering, to him it shall belong.
7:15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offering of
thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is presented;
he shall not let any of it remain until the morning.
7:16 And if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or
voluntary, it shall be eaten the same day that he presented his
sacrifice; on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be
eaten;
7:17 and the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the
third day shall be burned with fire.
7:18 And if [any] of the flesh of the sacrifice of his
peace-offering be eaten at all on the third day, it shall not
be accepted, it shall not be reckoned to him that hath
presented it; it shall be an unclean thing, and the soul that
eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.
7:19 And the flesh that toucheth anything unclean shall not be
eaten; it shall be burned with fire. And as to the flesh, all
that are clean may eat [the] flesh.
7:20 But the soul that eateth the flesh of the sacrifice of
peace-offering which is for Jehovah, having his uncleanness
upon him, that soul shall be cut off from his peoples.
7:21 And if any one touch anything unclean, the uncleanness of
man, or unclean beast, or any unclean abomination, and eat of
the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offering, which is for
Jehovah, that soul shall be cut off from his peoples.
7:22 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
7:23 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, No fat, of ox,
or of sheep, or of goat shall ye eat.
7:24 But the fat of a dead carcase, and the fat of that which is
torn, may be used in any other use; but ye shall in no wise eat
it.
7:25 For whoever eateth the fat of the beast of which men
present an offering by fire to Jehovah, the soul that hath
eaten shall be cut off from his peoples.
7:26 And no blood shall ye eat in any of your dwellings, whether
it be of fowl or of cattle.
7:27 Whatever soul it be that eateth any manner of blood, that
soul shall be cut off from his peoples.
7:28 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
7:29 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that
presenteth the sacrifice of his peace-offering to Jehovah shall
bring his offering to Jehovah of the sacrifice of his
peace-offering.
7:30 His own hands shall bring Jehovah's offerings by fire, the
fat with the breast shall he bring: the breast, that it may be
waved as a wave-offering before Jehovah.
7:31 And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar; and the
breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
7:32 And the right shoulder of the sacrifices of your
peace-offerings shall ye give as a heave-offering unto the
priest.
7:33 He of the sons of Aaron that presenteth the blood of the
peace-offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for
[his] part.
7:34 For the breast of the wave-offering, and the shoulder of
the heave-offering, have I taken of the children of Israel from
the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and have given them
unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons from the children of
Israel by an everlasting statute.
7:35 This is [the portion] of the anointing of Aaron and of the
anointing of his sons, from Jehovah's offerings by fire, in the
day [when] he presented them to serve Jehovah as priests,
7:36 which Jehovah commanded to be given them by the children of
Israel in the day that he anointed them: [it is] an everlasting
statute, throughout their generations.
7:37 This is the law of the burnt-offering, of the oblation, and
of the sin-offering, and of the trespass-offering, and of the
consecration-offering, and of the sacrifice of peace-offering,
7:38 which Jehovah commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the day
that he commanded the children of Israel to present their
offerings to Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai.
8:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
8:2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments and the
anointing oil, and the bullock of the sin-offering, and the two
rams, and the basket of unleavened [bread];
8:3 and gather all the assembly together at the entrance of the
tent of meeting.
8:4 And Moses did as Jehovah had commanded him; and the assembly
was collected at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
8:5 And Moses said to the assembly, This is the thing which
Jehovah has commanded to be done.
8:6 And Moses brought Aaron near, and his sons, and bathed them
with water.
8:7 And he put upon him the vest and girded him with the girdle,
and clothed him with the cloak, and put the ephod on him, and
he girded him with the girdle of the ephod, and fastened the
ephod on him.
8:8 And he put the breastplate on it, and put on the breastplate
the Urim and the Thummim;
8:9 and he put the turban upon his head; and upon the turban, on
the front of it, he put the golden plate, the holy diadem; as
Jehovah had commanded Moses.
8:10 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the
tabernacle and all that was in it, and hallowed them.
8:11 And he sprinkled thereof on the altar seven times, and
anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the laver and its
stand, to hallow them.
8:12 And he poured of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and
anointed him, to hallow him.
8:13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons near and clothed them with
the vests, and girded them with the girdles, and bound the high
caps on them, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
8:14 And he brought near the bullock for the sin-offering; and
Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bullock
for the sin-offering;
8:15 and he slaughtered [it], and Moses took the blood, and put
[it] on the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and
cleansed the altar from sin, and the blood he poured at the
bottom of the altar, and hallowed it, making atonement for it.
8:16 And he took all the fat that was on the inwards, and the
net of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses
burned [them] on the altar.
8:17 And the bullock, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung
he burned with fire outside the camp, as Jehovah had commanded
Moses.
8:18 And he presented the ram of the burnt-offering; and Aaron
and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram;
8:19 and he slaughtered [it]; and Moses sprinkled the blood on
the altar round about.
8:20 And the ram he cut up into its pieces; and Moses burned the
head, and the pieces, and the fat;
8:21 and the inwards and the legs he washed in water; and Moses
burned the whole ram on the altar: it was a burnt-offering for
a sweet odour, it was an offering by fire to Jehovah; as
Jehovah had commanded Moses.
8:22 And he presented the second ram, the ram of consecration;
and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram;
8:23 and one slaughtered [it]; and Moses took of its blood, and
put [it] on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of
his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot;
8:24 and he brought Aaron's sons near, and Moses put of the
blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their
right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and Moses
sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
8:25 And he took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that
was on the inwards, and the net of the liver, and the two
kidneys and their fat, and the right shoulder;
8:26 and out of the basket of unleavened bread that was before
Jehovah he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread,
and one wafer, and put them on the fat and upon the right
shoulder;
8:27 and he gave all into Aaron's hands, and into his sons'
hands, and waved them as a wave-offering before Jehovah.
8:28 And Moses took them from off their hands, and burned [them]
on the altar, over the burnt-offering: they were a
consecration-offering for a sweet odour: it was an offering by
fire to Jehovah.
8:29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it as a wave-offering
before Jehovah; of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
8:30 And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood that
was on the altar, and sprinkled [it] on Aaron, on his garments,
and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him; and
hallowed Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons'
garments with him.
8:31 And Moses spoke to Aaron and to his sons, Boil the flesh at
the entrance of the tent of meeting; and there eat it and the
bread that is in the basket of the consecration-offering, as I
commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
8:32 And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread
shall ye burn with fire.
8:33 And ye shall not go out from the entrance of the tent of
meeting seven days, until the day when the days of your
consecration are at an end: for seven days shall ye be
consecrated.
8:34 As he hath done this day, [so] Jehovah hath commanded to
do, to make atonement for you.
8:35 And ye shall abide at the entrance of the tent of meeting
day and night seven days, and keep the charge of Jehovah, that
ye die not; for so I am commanded.
8:36 And Aaron and his sons did all things that Jehovah had
commanded by the hand of Moses.
9:1 And it came to pass on the eighth day, [that] Moses called
Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel,
9:2 and said to Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a
sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, without blemish,
and present [them] before Jehovah;
9:3 and to the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, Take
a buck of the goats for a sin-offering, and a calf and a lamb,
yearlings, without blemish, for a burnt-offering;
9:4 and a bullock and a ram for a peace-offering, to sacrifice
before Jehovah; and an oblation mingled with oil; for to-day
Jehovah will appear to you.
9:5 And they brought what Moses commanded before the tent of
meeting; and all the assembly approached and stood before
Jehovah.
9:6 And Moses said, This is the thing which Jehovah has
commanded that ye should do; and the glory of Jehovah shall
appear to you.
9:7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go to the altar, and offer thy
sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make atonement for
thyself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the
people, and make atonement for them, as Jehovah has commanded.
9:8 And Aaron went to the altar and slaughtered the calf of the
sin-offering which was for himself;
9:9 and the sons of Aaron presented the blood to him, and he
dipped his finger in the blood, and put [it] on the horns of
the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar.
9:10 And the fat, and the kidneys, and the net above the liver,
of the sin-offering, he burned on the altar, as Jehovah had
commanded Moses.
9:11 And the flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the
camp.
9:12 And he slaughtered the burnt-offering; and Aaron's sons
delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar
round about.
9:13 And they delivered the burnt-offering to him, in the pieces
thereof, and the head; and he burned [them] on the altar.
9:14 And he washed the inwards and the legs, and burned [them]
upon the burnt-offering, on the altar.
9:15 And he presented the people's offering, and took the goat
of the sin-offering which was for the people and slaughtered
it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
9:16 And he presented the burnt-offering and offered it
according to the ordinance.
9:17 And he presented the oblation, and took a handful of it,
and burned it on the altar, besides the burnt-offering of the
morning.
9:18 And he slaughtered the bullock and the ram of the sacrifice
of peace-offering which was for the people. And Aaron's sons
delivered to him the blood, and he sprinkled it on the altar
round about;
9:19 and the pieces of fat of the bullock and of the ram, the
fat tail and what covers [the inwards], and the kidneys, and
the net of the liver;
9:20 and they put the pieces of fat on the breast-pieces, and he
burned the pieces of fat on the altar;
9:21 and the breast-pieces and the right shoulder Aaron waved as
a wave-offering before Jehovah, as Moses had commanded.
9:22 And Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed
them, and came down after the offering of the sin-offering, and
the burnt-offering, and the peace-offering.
9:23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting, and came
out and blessed the people; and the glory of Jehovah appeared
to all the people.
9:24 And there went out fire from before Jehovah, and consumed
on the altar the burnt-offering, and the pieces of fat; and all
the people saw it, and they shouted, and fell on their face.
10:1 And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, took each of them
his censer, and put fire in it, and put incense on it, and
presented strange fire before Jehovah, which he had not
commanded them.
10:2 And there went out fire from before Jehovah, and devoured
them, and they died before Jehovah.
10:3 And Moses said to Aaron, This is what Jehovah spoke,
saying, I will be hallowed in them that come near me, and
before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron was
silent.
10:4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel
the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, Come near, carry your
brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
10:5 And they went near, and carried them in their vests out of
the camp, as Moses had said.
10:6 And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar his
sons, Your heads shall ye not uncover, neither rend your
clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come on all the assembly;
but your brethren, the whole house of Israel, shall bewail the
burning which Jehovah hath kindled.
10:7 And ye shall not go out from the entrance of the tent of
meeting, lest ye die; for the anointing oil of Jehovah is upon
you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
10:8 And Jehovah spoke to Aaron, saying,
10:9 Thou shalt not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, and thy
sons with thee, when ye go into the tent of meeting, lest ye
die -- [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your
generations,
10:10 that ye may put difference between the holy and the
unholy, and between unclean and clean,
10:11 and that ye may teach the children of Israel all the
statutes which Jehovah hath spoken to them by the hand of
Moses.
10:12 And Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar,
his sons that were left, Take the oblation that is left of
Jehovah's offerings by fire, and eat it with unleavened bread
beside the altar; for it is most holy.
10:13 And ye shall eat it in a holy place, because it is thy
due, and thy sons' due, of Jehovah's offerings by fire; for so
I am commanded.
10:14 And the breast of the wave-offering, and the shoulder of
the heave-offering shall ye eat in a clean place, thou, and thy
sons, and thy daughters with thee; for [as] thy due, and thy
sons' due, are they given of the sacrifices of peace-offerings
of the children of Israel.
10:15 The shoulder of the heave-offering and the breast of the
wave-offering shall they bring, with the fire-offering of the
pieces of fat, to wave [them] as a wave-offering before
Jehovah; and they shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, for
an everlasting statute, as Jehovah has commanded.
10:16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin-offering,
and behold, it was burnt up: then he was wroth with Eleazar and
Ithamar, the sons of Aaron that were left, saying,
10:17 Why have ye not eaten the sin-offering in a holy place?
for it is most holy, and he has given it to you that ye might
bear the iniquity of the assembly, to make atonement for them
before Jehovah.
10:18 Lo, its blood was not brought in within the sanctuary: ye
should certainly have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I
commanded.
10:19 And Aaron said to Moses, Behold, to-day have they
presented their sin-offering and their burnt-offering before
Jehovah; and such things have befallen me; and had I to-day
eaten the sin-offering, would it have been good in the sight of
Jehovah?
10:20 And Moses heard it; and it was good in his sight.
11:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
11:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the
animals which ye shall eat of all the beasts which are on the
earth.
11:3 Whatever hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite split open, and
cheweth the cud, among the beasts -- that shall ye eat.
11:4 Only these shall ye not eat of those that chew the cud, or
of those with cloven hoofs: the camel, for it cheweth the cud,
but hath not cloven hoofs -- it shall be unclean unto you;
11:5 and the rock-badger, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not
cloven hoofs -- it shall be unclean unto you;
11:6 and the hare, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven
hoofs -- it shall be unclean unto you;
11:7 and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite
split open, but it cheweth not the cud -- it shall be unclean
unto you.
11:8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye
not touch: they shall be unclean unto you.
11:9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatever
hath fins and scales in waters, in seas and in rivers, these
shall ye eat;
11:10 but all that have not fins and scales in seas and in
rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of every living
soul which is in the waters -- they shall be an abomination
unto you.
11:11 They shall be even an abomination unto you: of their flesh
shall ye not eat, and their carcase ye shall have in
abomination.
11:12 Whatever in the waters hath no fins and scales, that shall
be an abomination unto you.
11:13 And these shall ye have in abomination of the fowls; they
shall not be eaten; an abomination shall they be: the eagle,
and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
11:14 and the falcon, and the kite, after its kind;
11:15 every raven after its kind;
11:16 and the female ostrich and the male ostrich, and the
sea-gull, and the hawk, after its kind;
11:17 and the owl, and the gannet, and the ibis,
11:18 and the swan, and the pelican, and the carrion vulture,
11:19 and the stork; the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe,
and the bat.
11:20 Every winged crawling thing that goeth upon all four shall
be an abomination unto you.
11:21 Yet these shall ye eat of every winged crawling thing that
goeth upon all four: those which have legs above their feet
with which to leap upon the earth.
11:22 These shall ye eat of them: the arbeh after its kind, and
the solam after its kind, and the hargol after its kind, and
the hargab after its kind.
11:23 But every winged crawling thing that hath four feet shall
be an abomination unto you.
11:24 And by these ye shall make yourselves unclean; whoever
toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
11:25 And whoever carrieth [ought] of their carcase shall wash
his garments, and be unclean until the even.
11:26 Every beast that hath cloven hoofs, but not feet quite
split open, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean unto you:
every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
11:27 And whatever goeth on its paws, among all manner of beasts
that go upon all four, those are unclean unto you: whoever
toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
11:28 And he that carrieth their carcase shall wash his
garments, and be unclean until the even: they shall be unclean
unto you.
11:29 And these shall be unclean unto you among the crawling
things which crawl on the earth: the mole, and the field-mouse,
and the lizard, after its kind;
11:30 and the groaning lizard, and the great red lizard, and the
climbing lizard, and the chomet, and the chameleon.
11:31 These shall be unclean unto you among all that crawl:
whoever toucheth them when they are dead, shall be unclean
until the even.
11:32 And on whatever any of them when they are dead doth fall,
it shall be unclean; all vessels of wood, or garment, or skin,
or sack, every vessel wherewith work is done -- it shall be put
into water, and be unclean until the even; then shall it be
clean.
11:33 And every earthen vessel into which [any] of them falleth
-- whatever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
11:34 All food that is eaten on which [such] water hath come
shall be unclean; and all drink that is drunk shall be unclean,
in every [such] vessel.
11:35 And everything where upon [any part] of their carcase
falleth shall be unclean; oven and hearth shall be broken down:
they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
11:36 Nevertheless, a spring or a well, a quantity of water,
shall be clean. But he that toucheth their carcase shall be
unclean.
11:37 And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing-seed
which is to be sown, it shall be clean;
11:38 but if water have been put on the seed, and any part of
their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
11:39 And if any beast which is to you for food die, he that
toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
11:40 And he that eateth of its carcase shall wash his garments,
and be unclean until the even: he also that carrieth its
carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
11:41 And every crawling thing which crawleth on the earth shall
be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
11:42 Whatever goeth on the belly, and whatever goeth on all
four, and all that have a great many feet, of every manner of
crawling thing which crawleth on the earth -- these ye shall
not eat; for they are an abomination.
11:43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable through any
crawling thing which crawleth, neither shall ye make yourselves
unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
11:44 For I am Jehovah your God; and ye shall hallow yourselves,
and ye shall be holy; for I am holy; and ye shall not make
yourselves unclean through any manner of crawling thing which
creepeth on the earth.
11:45 For I am Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of
Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am
holy.
11:46 This is the law of cattle, and of fowl, and of every
living soul that moveth in the waters, and of every soul that
crawleth on the earth;
11:47 to make a difference between the unclean and the clean,
and between the beast that is to be eaten and the beast that is
not to be eaten.
12:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
12:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman
conceive seed, and bear a male, then she shall be unclean seven
days; as in the days of the separation of her infirmity shall
she be unclean.
12:3 And on the eighth day shall the flesh of his foreskin be
circumcised.
12:4 And she shall continue thirty-three days in the blood of
her cleansing; no holy thing shall she touch, nor come into the
sanctuary, until the days of her cleansing are fulfilled.
12:5 And if she bear a female, then she shall be unclean two
weeks, as in her separation; and she shall continue sixty-six
days in the blood of her cleansing.
12:6 And when the days of her cleansing are fulfilled, for a son
or for a daughter, she shall bring a yearling lamb for a
burnt-offering, and a young pigeon or a turtle-dove for a
sin-offering, to the entrance of the tent of meeting, unto the
priest.
12:7 And he shall present it before Jehovah, and make atonement
for her; and she shall be clean from the flux of her blood.
This is the law for her that hath borne a male or a female.
12:8 And if her hand cannot find what is sufficient for a sheep,
she shall bring two turtle-doves or two young pigeons; one for
a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the
priest shall make atonement for her; and she shall be clean.
13:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
13:2 When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising or
a scab, or bright spot, and it become in the skin of his flesh
a sore [as] of leprosy, then he shall be brought unto Aaron the
priest, or unto one of his sons the priests.
13:3 And when the priest looketh on the sore in the skin of the
flesh, and the hair in the sore is turned white, and the sore
looketh deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is the sore of
leprosy; and the priest shall look on him and pronounce him
unclean.
13:4 But if the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh,
and look not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not
turned white, the priest shall shut up [him that hath] the sore
seven days.
13:5 And the priest shall look on him the seventh day; and
behold, in his sight, the sore remaineth as it was, the sore
hath not spread in the skin, then the priest shall shut him up
seven days a second time.
13:6 And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day, and
behold, the sore is become pale and the sore hath not spread in
the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean; it is a
scab; and he shall wash his garments and be clean.
13:7 But if the scab have spread much in the skin, after that he
hath been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be
seen by the priest again;
13:8 and the priest shall look on him, and behold, the scab hath
spread in the skin; then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is leprosy.
13:9 When a sore [as] of leprosy is in a man, he shall be
brought unto the priest;
13:10 and the priest shall look on him, and behold, there is a
white rising in the skin, and it hath turned the hair white,
and a trace of raw flesh is in the rising:
13:11 it is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh; and the
priest shall pronounce him unclean, and he shall not shut him
up, for he is unclean.
13:12 But if the leprosy break out much in the skin, and the
leprosy cover all the skin of [him that hath] the sore, from
his head even to his foot, wherever the eyes of the priest
look,
13:13 and the priest looketh, and behold, the leprosy covereth
all his flesh, he shall pronounce [him] clean [that hath] the
sore; it is all turned white; he is clean.
13:14 And on the day when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall
be unclean.
13:15 And the priest shall look on the raw flesh, and shall
pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean, it is leprosy.
13:16 But if the raw flesh change again, and be turned white, he
shall come unto the priest;
13:17 and the priest shall look on him, and behold, the sore is
turned white; then the priest shall pronounce [him] clean [that
hath] the sore: he is clean.
13:18 And the flesh -- when in the skin thereof cometh a boil,
and it is healed,
13:19 and there is in the place of the boil a white rising, or a
white-reddish bright spot, it shall be shewn to the priest;
13:20 and the priest shall look on it, and behold, it looketh
deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof is turned white;
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the sore of
leprosy broken out in the boil.
13:21 But if the priest look on it, and behold, there are no
white hairs therein, and it is not deeper than the skin, and is
pale, the priest shall shut him up seven days;
13:22 and if it spread much in the skin, then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it is the sore.
13:23 But if the bright spot have remained in its place, [and]
have not spread, it is the scar of the boil; and the priest
shall pronounce him clean.
13:24 Or if in the flesh, in the skin thereof, there is a
burning inflammation, and the place of the inflammation become
a bright spot white-reddish or white,
13:25 and the priest look on it, and behold, the hair is turned
white in the bright spot, and it looketh deeper than the skin,
it is a leprosy which is broken out in the inflammation; and
the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the sore of
leprosy.
13:26 But if the priest look on it, and behold, there is no
white hair in the bright spot, and it is no deeper than the
skin, and is pale, the priest shall shut him up seven days.
13:27 And the priest shall look on him the seventh day, and if
it have spread much in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is the sore of leprosy.
13:28 But if the bright spot have remained in its place, [and]
not spread in the skin, and is pale, it is the rising of the
inflammation; and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it
is the scar of the inflammation.
13:29 And if a man or a woman have a sore on the head or on the
beard,
13:30 and the priest look on the sore, and behold, it looketh
deeper than the skin, and there is in it yellow thin hair, then
the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is a scall, the
leprosy of the head or the beard.
13:31 And if the priest look on the sore of the scall, and
behold, it is not in sight deeper than the skin, and there is
no black hair in it, the priest shall shut up [him that hath]
the sore of the scall seven days.
13:32 And when the priest looketh on the sore on the seventh
day, and behold, the scall hath not spread, and there is in it
no yellow hair, and the scall doth not look deeper than the
skin,
13:33 he [that hath the sore] shall shave himself; but the scall
shall he not shave; and the priest shall shut up [him that
hath] the scall seven days a second time.
13:34 And the priest shall look on the scall on the seventh day,
and behold, the scall hath not spread in the skin, nor is in
sight deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him
clean; and he shall wash his garments, and be clean.
13:35 But if the scall have spread much in the skin after his
cleansing,
13:36 and the priest shall look on him, and behold, the scall
hath spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow
hair: he is unclean.
13:37 But if the scall have in his sight remained as it was, and
there is black hair grown up therein, the scall is healed: he
is clean; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
13:38 And if a man or a woman have in the skin of their flesh
bright spots, white bright spots,
13:39 and the priest look, and behold, there are in the skin of
their flesh pale white spots, it is an eruption which is broken
out in the skin: he is clean.
13:40 And if a man's hair have fallen off his head, he is bald:
he is clean;
13:41 and if he have the hair fallen off from the part of the
head towards his face, he is forehead-bald: he is clean.
13:42 And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a
white-reddish sore, it is a leprosy which hath broken out in
his bald head, or his bald forehead.
13:43 And the priest shall look on it, and behold, the rising of
the sore is white-reddish in his bald head, or in his bald
forehead, like the appearance of the leprosy in the skin of the
flesh;
13:44 he is a leprous man, he is unclean; the priest shall
pronounce him utterly unclean; his sore is in his head.
13:45 And as to the leper in whom the sore is, -- his garments
shall be rent, and his head shall be uncovered, and he shall
put a covering on his beard, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean!
13:46 All the days that the sore shall be in him he shall be
unclean: he is unclean; he shall dwell apart; outside the camp
shall his dwelling be.
13:47 And if a sore of leprosy is in a garment, in a woollen
garment, or a linen garment,
13:48 either in the warp or in the woof of linen or of wool, or
in a skin, or in anything made of skin,
13:49 and the sore is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in
the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of
skin, it is the sore of leprosy, and shall be shewn unto the
priest.
13:50 And the priest shall look on the sore, and shall shut up
[that which hath] the sore seven days.
13:51 And he shall see the sore on the seventh day: if the sore
have spread in the garment, either in the warp or in the woof,
or in a skin, in any work that may be made of skin, the sore is
a corroding leprosy: it is unclean.
13:52 And they shall burn the garment, or the warp or the woof,
of wool or of linen, or anything of skin, wherein the sore is;
for it is a corroding leprosy: it shall be burned with fire.
13:53 But if the priest look, and behold, the sore hath not
spread in the garment, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in
anything of skin,
13:54 then the priest shall command that they wash the thing
wherein the sore is, and he shall shut it up seven days a
second time.
13:55 And the priest shall look on the sore after the washing,
and behold, if the sore have not changed its appearance, and
the sore have not spread, it is unclean: thou shalt burn it
with fire: it is a fretting sore on what is threadbare or where
the nap is gone.
13:56 But if the priest look, and behold, the sore hath become
pale after the washing of it, then he shall rend it from the
garment, or from the skin, or from the warp, or from the woof.
13:57 And if it appear still in the garment, or in the warp, or
in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a [leprosy] breaking
out: thou shalt burn with fire that wherein the sore is.
13:58 But the garment, or the warp, or the woof, or whatever
thing of skin which thou hast washed, and the sore departeth
from them, it shall be washed a second time, and it is clean.
13:59 This is the law of the sore of leprosy in a garment of
wool or linen, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything
of skin, to cleanse it, or to pronounce it unclean.
14:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
14:2 This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his
cleansing: he shall be brought unto the priest,
14:3 and the priest shall go out of the camp; and when the
priest looketh, and behold, the sore of leprosy is healed in
the leper,
14:4 then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be
cleansed two clean living birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet,
and hyssop.
14:5 And the priest shall command that one bird be killed in an
earthen vessel over running water:
14:6 as to the living bird -- he shall take it, and the
cedar-wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and dip them and
the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over
the running water;
14:7 and he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from
the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and
shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
14:8 And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his garments, and
shave all his hair, and bathe in water, and he shall be clean;
and afterwards shall he come into the camp, and shall abide
outside his tent seven days.
14:9 And it shall come to pass on the seventh day, that he shall
shave all his hair, his head, and his beard, and his eyebrows,
even all his hair shall he shave, and he shall wash his
garments, and shall bathe his flesh in water, and he is clean.
14:10 And on the eighth day he shall take two he-lambs without
blemish, and one yearling ewe-lamb without blemish, and three
tenth parts of fine flour mingled with oil, for an oblation,
and one log of oil.
14:11 And the priest that cleanseth [him] shall present the man
that is to be cleansed and those things before Jehovah, at the
entrance of the tent of meeting.
14:12 And the priest shall take one he-lamb, and present it for
a trespass-offering, and the log of oil, and wave them as a
wave-offering before Jehovah.
14:13 And he shall slaughter the he-lamb at the place where the
sin-offering and the burnt-offering are slaughtered, in a holy
place; for as the sin-offering, so the trespass-offering is the
priest's: it is most holy.
14:14 And the priest shall take of the blood of the
trespass-offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of
the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and on the thumb
of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.
14:15 And the priest shall take of the log of oil, and pour it
into his, the priest's, left hand;
14:16 and the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that
is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his
finger seven times before Jehovah.
14:17 And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the
priest put on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be
cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great
toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass-offering.
14:18 And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest's hand
he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, and
the priest shall make atonement for him before Jehovah.
14:19 And the priest shall offer the sin-offering, and make
atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness;
and afterwards shall he slaughter the burnt-offering.
14:20 And the priest shall offer the burnt-offering and the
oblation upon the altar; and the priest shall make atonement
for him, and he shall be clean.
14:21 But if he be poor, and his hand be not able to get it,
then he shall take one lamb for a trespass-offering, for a
wave-offering, to make atonement for him; and one tenth part of
fine flour mingled with oil for an oblation; and a log of oil,
14:22 and two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, as his hand
may be able to get: the one shall be a sin-offering, and the
other a burnt-offering.
14:23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day of his cleansing
unto the priest, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting,
before Jehovah.
14:24 And the priest shall take the he-lamb of the
trespass-offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall
wave them as a wave-offering before Jehovah.
14:25 And he shall slaughter the he-lamb of the
trespass-offering; and the priest shall take of the blood of
the trespass-offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear
of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right
hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.
14:26 And the priest shall pour of the oil into [his], the
priest's, left hand,
14:27 and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger of the
oil that is in his left hand seven times before Jehovah.
14:28 And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand
upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed,
and upon the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of
his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the
trespass-offering.
14:29 And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest's hand
he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, to
make atonement for him before Jehovah.
14:30 And he shall offer one of the turtle-doves, or of the
young pigeons, of what his hand was able to get;
14:31 of what his hand was able to get shall the one be a
sin-offering, and the other a burnt-offering, with the
oblation; and the priest shall make atonement for him that is
to be cleansed before Jehovah.
14:32 This is the law for him in whom is the sore of leprosy,
whose hand cannot get what is [regularly prescribed] in his
cleansing.
14:33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
14:34 When ye come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you
for a possession, and I put a leprous plague in a house of the
land of your possession,
14:35 then he whose house it is shall come and tell the priest,
saying, It seemeth to me like a plague in the house;
14:36 and the priest shall command that they empty the house
before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that
is in the house be not made unclean; and afterwards the priest
shall go in to see the house.
14:37 And when he looketh on the plague, and behold, the plague
is in the walls of the house, greenish or reddish hollows, and
their look is deeper than the surface of the wall,
14:38 then the priest shall go out of the house to the entrance
of the house, and shut up the house seven days.
14:39 And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and when
he looketh, and behold, the plague hath spread in the walls of
the house,
14:40 then the priest shall command that they take away the
stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them out of
the city, in an unclean place.
14:41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round
about, and they shall pour out the mortar that they have
scraped off, out of the city in an unclean place.
14:42 And they shall take other stones, and put them in the
place of those stones; and they shall take other mortar, and
shall plaster the house.
14:43 And if the plague come again, and break out in the house,
after he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped
the house, and after it is plastered,
14:44 then the priest shall come, and when he looketh, and
behold, the plague hath spread in the house, it is a corroding
leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
14:45 And they shall break down the house, the stones of it, and
the timber thereof, and all the mortar of the house, and shall
carry them forth out of the city to an unclean place.
14:46 And he that goeth into the house as long as it is shut up
shall be unclean until the even.
14:47 And he that sleepeth in the house shall wash his garments,
and he that eateth in the house shall wash his garments.
14:48 But if the priest shall come in and look, and behold, the
plague hath not spread in the house, after the house hath been
plastered, the priest shall pronounce the house clean; for the
plague is healed.
14:49 And he shall take, to purge the house from the defilement,
two birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop;
14:50 and he shall kill one bird in an earthen vessel over
running water;
14:51 and he shall take the cedar-wood and the hyssop and the
scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the
bird that was killed, and in the running water, and sprinkle
the house seven times;
14:52 and he shall purge the house from the defilement with the
blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the
living bird, and with the cedar-wood, and with the hyssop, and
with the scarlet;
14:53 and he shall let the living bird loose out of the city
into the open field; and he shall make atonement for the house,
and it is clean.
14:54 This is the law for every sore of leprosy, and for the
scall,
14:55 and for the leprosy of garments, and of houses,
14:56 and for the rising, and for the scab, and for the bright
spot,
14:57 to teach when there is uncleanness, and when it is
purified: this is the law of leprosy.
15:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
15:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If
any man have a flux from his flesh, because of his flux he is
unclean.
15:3 And this shall be his uncleanness in his flux: whether his
flesh run with his flux, or his flesh be closed from his flux,
it is his uncleanness.
15:4 Every bed whereon he lieth that hath the flux shall be
unclean; and every object on which he sitteth shall be unclean.
15:5 And whoever toucheth his bed shall wash his garments, and
bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:6 And he that sitteth on any object whereon he sat that hath
the flux shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be
unclean until the even.
15:7 And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the flux
shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean
until the even.
15:8 And if he that hath the flux spit upon him that is clean,
then he shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be
unclean until the even.
15:9 And what carriage soever he rideth upon that hath the flux
shall be unclean.
15:10 And whoever toucheth anything that was under him shall be
unclean until the even; and he that carrieth them shall wash
his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the
even.
15:11 And whomsoever he toucheth who hath the flux and hath not
rinsed his hands in water -- he shall wash his garments, and
bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:12 And the vessel of earth that he toucheth who hath the flux
shall be broken; and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in
water.
15:13 And when he that hath a flux is clean of his flux, then he
shall count seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes,
and bathe his flesh in running water, and he shall be clean.
15:14 And on the eighth day he shall take two turtle-doves, or
two young pigeons, and come before Jehovah unto the entrance of
the tent of meeting, and give them unto the priest.
15:15 And the priest shall offer them, one as a sin-offering,
and one as a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make
atonement for him before Jehovah for his flux.
15:16 And if any man's seed of copulation pass from him, then he
shall bathe his whole flesh in water, and be unclean until the
even.
15:17 And every garment, and every skin, whereon the seed of
copulation shall be, shall be washed with water, and be unclean
until the even.
15:18 And a woman with whom a man lieth with seed of copulation
-- they shall bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:19 And if a woman have a flux, and her flux in her flesh be
blood, she shall be seven days in her separation, and whoever
toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.
15:20 And everything that she lieth upon in her separation shall
be unclean; and everything that she sitteth upon shall be
unclean.
15:21 And whoever toucheth her bed shall wash his garments, and
bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:22 And whoever toucheth any object that she sat upon shall
wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the
even.
15:23 And if it be on the bed, or on anything whereon she
sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the
even.
15:24 And if a man lie with her at all, and the uncleanness of
her separation come upon him, he shall be unclean seven days;
and every bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean.
15:25 And if a woman have her flux of blood many days out of the
time of her separation, or if she have the flux beyond the time
of her separation, all the days of the flux of her uncleanness
shall she be as [in] the days of her separation: she is
unclean.
15:26 Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her flux shall
be unto her as the bed of her separation; and every object on
which she sitteth shall be unclean, according to the
uncleanness of her separation.
15:27 And whoever toucheth them shall be unclean, and shall wash
his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:28 And if she be cleansed of her flux then she shall count
seven days, and after that she shall be clean.
15:29 And on the eighth day she shall take two turtle-doves, or
two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, unto the
entrance of the tent of meeting.
15:30 And the priest shall offer the one as a sin-offering, and
the other as a burnt-offering; and the priest shall make
atonement for her before Jehovah for the flux of her
uncleanness.
15:31 And ye shall separate the children of Israel from their
uncleanness, that they die not in their uncleanness, when they
defile my tabernacle that is in their midst.
15:32 This is the law for him that hath a flux, and for the one
whose seed of copulation goeth from him, and who is defiled
therewith:
15:33 and for a woman who is sick in her separation, and for him
that hath his flux; for the man and for the woman, and for him
that lieth with her that is unclean.
16:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons
of Aaron, when they came near before Jehovah and died;
16:2 and Jehovah said to Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother,
that he come not at all times into the sanctuary inside the
veil before the mercy-seat which is upon the ark, that he die
not; for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy-seat.
16:3 In this manner shall Aaron come into the sanctuary: with a
young bullock for a sin-offering, and a ram for a
burnt-offering.
16:4 A holy linen vest shall he put on, and linen trousers shall
be upon his flesh, and he shall be girded with a linen girdle,
and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy
garments; and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and put them
on.
16:5 And of the assembly of the children of Israel shall he take
two bucks of the goats for a sin-offering, and one ram for a
burnt-offering.
16:6 And Aaron shall present the bullock of the sin-offering,
which is for himself, and make atonement for himself, and for
his house.
16:7 And he shall take the two goats, and set them before
Jehovah, before the entrance of the tent of meeting.
16:8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats: one lot for
Jehovah, and the other lot for Azazel.
16:9 And Aaron shall present the goat upon which the lot fell
for Jehovah, and offer it [as] a sin-offering.
16:10 And the goat upon which the lot fell for Azazel shall be
set alive before Jehovah, to make atonement with it, to send it
away as Azazel into the wilderness.
16:11 And Aaron shall present the bullock of the sin-offering,
which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and
for his house, and shall slaughter the bullock of the
sin-offering which is for himself.
16:12 And he shall take the censer full of burning coals of fire
from off the altar before Jehovah, and both his hands full of
fragrant incense beaten small, and bring it inside the veil.
16:13 And he shall put the incense upon the fire before Jehovah,
that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy-seat which is
upon the testimony, that he die not.
16:14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and
sprinkle with his finger upon the front of the mercy-seat
eastward; and before the mercy-seat shall he sprinkle of the
blood seven times with his finger.
16:15 And he shall slaughter the goat of the sin-offering, which
is for the people, and bring its blood inside the veil, and do
with its blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and
sprinkle it upon the mercy-seat, and before the mercy-seat;
16:16 and he shall make atonement for the sanctuary, [to cleanse
it] from the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and from
their transgressions in all their sins; and so shall he do for
the tent of meeting which dwelleth among them in the midst of
their uncleanness.
16:17 And there shall be no man in the tent of meeting when he
goeth in to make atonement in the sanctuary until he come out;
and he shall make atonement for himself, and for his house, and
for the whole congregation of Israel.
16:18 And he shall go out unto the altar which is before
Jehovah, and make atonement for it; and shall take of the blood
of the bullock, and of the goat, and put it upon the horns of
the altar round about;
16:19 and he shall sprinkle upon it of the blood with his finger
seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the
uncleannesses of the children of Israel.
16:20 And when he hath ended making atonement for the sanctuary,
and the tent of meeting, and the altar, he shall present the
living goat;
16:21 and Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the
living goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the
children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their
sins, and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall
send him away to the wilderness by the hand of a man standing
ready;
16:22 that the goat may bear upon him all their iniquities to a
land apart [from men]; and he shall send away the goat into the
wilderness.
16:23 And Aaron shall go into the tent of meeting, and shall put
off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the
sanctuary, and shall leave them there;
16:24 and he shall bathe his flesh with water in a holy place,
and put on his garments, and go forth, and offer his
burnt-offering, and the burnt-offering of the people, and make
atonement for himself, and for the people.
16:25 And the fat of the sin-offering shall he burn upon the
altar.
16:26 And he that letteth go the goat for Azazel shall wash his
clothes, and bathe his flesh in water; and afterwards he may
come into the camp.
16:27 And the bullock of the sin-offering, and the goat of the
sin-offering whose blood was brought in to make atonement in
the sanctuary, shall one carry forth outside the camp; and they
shall burn with fire their skins, and their flesh, and their
dung.
16:28 And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe
his flesh in water; and afterwards he may come into the camp.
16:29 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you. In the
seventh month, on the tenth of the month, ye shall afflict your
souls, and do no work at all, the home-born, and the stranger
that sojourneth among you;
16:30 for on that day shall atonement be made for you, to
cleanse you: from all your sins shall ye be clean before
Jehovah.
16:31 A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you, and ye shall
afflict your souls: [it is] an everlasting statute.
16:32 And the priest who hath been anointed, and who hath been
consecrated, to exercise the priesthood in his father's stead,
shall make atonement; and he shall put on the linen garments,
the holy garments.
16:33 And he shall make atonement for the holy sanctuary; and
for the tent of meeting, and for the altar shall he make
atonement; and for the priests, and for the whole people of the
congregation shall he make atonement.
16:34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make
atonement for the children of Israel [to cleanse them] from all
their sins once a year. And he did as Jehovah had commanded
Moses.
17:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17:2 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the
children of Israel, and say unto them, This is the thing which
Jehovah hath commanded, saying,
17:3 Every one of the house of Israel that slaughtereth an ox,
or sheep, or goat, in the camp, or that slaughtereth it out of
the camp,
17:4 and doth not bring it to the entrance of the tent of
meeting to present it as an offering to Jehovah, before the
tabernacle of Jehovah, blood shall be reckoned unto that man:
he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among
his people,
17:5 to the end that the children of Israel bring their
sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they
bring them to Jehovah, unto the entrance of the tent of
meeting, unto the priest, and sacrifice them as sacrifices of
peace-offerings to Jehovah.
17:6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of
Jehovah, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and burn the
fat for a sweet odour to Jehovah.
17:7 And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices unto
demons, after whom they go a whoring. This shall be an
everlasting statute unto them for their generations.
17:8 And thou shalt say unto them, Every one of the house of
Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among them, that
offereth up a burnt-offering or sacrifice,
17:9 and bringeth it not to the entrance of the tent of meeting,
to offer it up to Jehovah -- that man shall be cut off from his
peoples.
17:10 And every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers
who sojourn among them, that eateth any manner of blood, -- I
will set my face against the soul that hath eaten blood, and
will cut him off from among his people;
17:11 for the soul of the flesh is in the blood; and I have
given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your
souls, for it is the blood that maketh atonement for the soul.
17:12 Therefore have I said unto the children of Israel, No soul
of you shall eat blood, neither shall the stranger who
sojourneth among you eat blood.
17:13 And every one of the children of Israel, and of the
strangers who sojourn among them, that catcheth in the hunt a
beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood
thereof, and cover it with earth;
17:14 for as to the life of all flesh, its blood is the life in
it; and I have said unto the children of Israel, Of the blood
of no manner of flesh shall ye eat, for the life of all flesh
is its blood: whoever eateth it shall be cut off.
17:15 And every soul that eateth of a dead carcase, or of that
which was torn, be it one home-born, or a stranger, he shall
wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the
even: then he shall be clean.
17:16 And if he wash them not nor bathe his flesh, then he shall
bear his iniquity.
18:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
18:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am
Jehovah your God.
18:3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt,
shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan,
whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in
their customs.
18:4 Mine ordinances shall ye do and my statutes shall ye
observe to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God.
18:5 And ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, by which
the man that doeth them shall live: I am Jehovah.
18:6 No one shall approach to any that is his near relation, to
uncover his nakedness: I am Jehovah.
18:7 The nakedness of thy father, and the nakedness of thy
mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother: thou shalt
not uncover her nakedness.
18:8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover:
it is thy father's nakedness.
18:9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or
daughter of thy mother, born at home, or born abroad -- their
nakedness shalt thou not uncover.
18:10 The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's
daughter -- their nakedness shalt thou not uncover; for theirs
is thy nakedness.
18:11 The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of
thy father: she is thy sister: thou shalt not uncover her
nakedness.
18:12 The nakedness of thy father's sister shalt thou not
uncover: she is thy father's near relation.
18:13 The nakedness of thy mother's sister shalt thou not
uncover; for she is thy mother's near relation.
18:14 The nakedness of thy father's brother shalt thou not
uncover; thou shalt not approach his wife: she is thine aunt.
18:15 The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law shalt thou not
uncover: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her
nakedness.
18:16 The nakedness of thy brother's wife shalt thou not
uncover: it is thy brother's nakedness.
18:17 The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shalt thou not
uncover; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, nor her
daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are her
near relations: it is wickedness.
18:18 And thou shalt not take a wife to her sister, to vex her,
to uncover her nakedness beside her, during her life.
18:19 And thou shalt not approach a woman in the separation of
her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness.
18:20 And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife,
to become unclean with her.
18:21 And thou shalt not give of thy seed to let them pass
through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the
name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
18:22 And thou shalt not lie with mankind as one lieth with a
woman: it is an abomination.
18:23 And thou shalt lie with no beast to become unclean
therewith; and a woman shall not stand before a beast to lie
down with it: it is confusion.
18:24 Make not yourselves unclean in any of these things; for in
all these have the nations which I am casting out before you
made themselves unclean.
18:25 And the land hath become unclean; and I visit the iniquity
thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants.
18:26 But *ye* shall observe my statutes and my judgments, and
shall not commit any of all these abominations: the home-born,
and the stranger that sojourneth among you;
18:27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done,
who were before you, and the land hath been made unclean);
18:28 that the land vomit you not out, when ye make it unclean,
as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
18:29 For whoever committeth any of these abominations, ... the
souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their
people.
18:30 And ye shall observe my charge, that ye commit not [any]
of the abominable customs which were committed before you; and
ye shall not make yourselves unclean therein: I am Jehovah your
God.
19:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
19:2 Speak unto all the assembly of the children of Israel, and
say unto them, Holy shall ye be, for I Jehovah your God am
holy.
19:3 Ye shall reverence every man his mother, and his father,
and my sabbaths shall ye keep: I am Jehovah your God.
19:4 Ye shall not turn unto idols, and ye shall not make to
yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
19:5 And if ye sacrifice a sacrifice of peace-offering to
Jehovah, ye shall sacrifice it for your acceptance.
19:6 On the day when ye sacrifice it shall it be eaten, and on
the morrow; and that which remaineth until the third day shall
be burned with fire.
19:7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an
unclean thing: it shall not be accepted.
19:8 And he that eateth it shall bear his iniquity; for he hath
profaned the hallowed thing of Jehovah; and that soul shall be
cut off from among his peoples.
19:9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not
wholly reap the corners of thy field, and the gleaning of thy
harvest thou shalt not gather.
19:10 And thy vineyard shalt thou not glean, neither shalt thou
gather what hath been left of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave
them for the poor and the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
19:11 Ye shall not steal, and ye shall not deal falsely, and ye
shall not lie one to another.
19:12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the
name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
19:13 Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbour, neither rob him. The
wages of the hired servant shall not abide with thee all night
until the morning.
19:14 Thou shalt not revile a deaf person, and thou shalt not
put a stumbling-block before a blind one; but thou shalt fear
thy God: I am Jehovah.
19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; thou shalt not
respect the person of the lowly, nor honour the person of the
great; in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
19:16 Thou shalt not go about as a talebearer among thy people;
thou shalt not stand up against the life of thy neighbour: I am
Jehovah.
19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart; thou shalt
earnestly rebuke thy neighbour, lest thou bear sin on account
of him.
19:18 Thou shalt not avenge thyself, nor bear any grudge against
the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself: I am Jehovah.
19:19 My statutes shall ye observe. Thou shalt not let thy
cattle gender with another sort; thou shalt not sow thy field
with seed of two sorts; and a garment woven of two materials
shall not come upon thee.
19:20 And if a man lie with a woman for copulation, and she is a
bondwoman betrothed to a husband, but not at all ransomed, nor
hath freedom been given to her, there shall be a chastisement:
they shall not be put to death, for she was not free.
19:21 And he shall bring his trespass-offering to Jehovah, unto
the entrance of the tent of meeting, a ram for a
trespass-offering.
19:22 And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram
of the trespass-offering before Jehovah for his sin which he
hath done; and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven
him.
19:23 And when ye come into the land and plant all manner of
trees for food, then ye shall count its fruit as uncircumcised,
three years shall it be uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be
eaten of;
19:24 and in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy
for praise to Jehovah;
19:25 and in the fifth year shall ye eat the fruit thereof, that
it may increase unto you the produce thereof: I am Jehovah your
God.
19:26 Ye shall eat nothing with the blood. -- Ye shall not
practise enchantment, nor use auguries.
19:27 -- Ye shall not shave the corners of your head round,
neither shalt thou mutilate the corners of thy beard.
19:28 And cuttings for a dead person shall ye not make in your
flesh, nor put any tattoo writing upon you: I am Jehovah.
19:29 -- Do not profane thy daughter, to give her up to
whoredom; lest the land practise whoredom, and the land become
full of infamy.
19:30 -- My sabbaths shall ye keep, and my sanctuary shall ye
reverence: I am Jehovah.
19:31 -- Turn not unto necromancers and unto soothsayers; seek
not after them to make yourselves unclean: I am Jehovah your
God.
19:32 Before the hoary head thou shalt rise up, and shalt honour
the face of an old man; and thou shalt fear thy God: I am
Jehovah.
19:33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall
not molest him.
19:34 As one born among you shall the stranger who sojourneth
with you be unto you; and thou shalt love him as thyself; for
ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
19:35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measure of
length, in weight, and in measure of capacity:
19:36 just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin
shall ye have: I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of
the land of Egypt.
19:37 And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine
ordinances, and do them: I am Jehovah.
20:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
20:2 Thou shalt say also to the children of Israel, Every one of
the children of Israel, or of the strangers who sojourn in
Israel, that giveth of his seed unto Molech, shall certainly be
put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with
stones.
20:3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him
off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed
unto Molech, so as to make my sanctuary unclean, and to profane
my holy name.
20:4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes
from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, that
they kill him not,
20:5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his
family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after
him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
20:6 -- And the soul that turneth unto necromancers and unto
soothsayers, to go a whoring after them, I will set my face
against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
20:7 Hallow yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am Jehovah
your God.
20:8 And ye shall observe my statutes, and do them: I am Jehovah
who hallow you.
20:9 Whatever man revileth his father and his mother shall
certainly be put to death: he hath reviled his father and his
mother; his blood is upon him.
20:10 And a man that committeth adultery with a man's wife, who
committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, -- the adulterer
and the adulteress shall certainly be put to death.
20:11 And a man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered
his father's nakedness: both of them shall certainly be put to
death; their blood is upon them.
20:12 And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them
shall certainly be put to death: they have wrought confusion;
their blood is upon them.
20:13 And if a man lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman,
both of them have committed an abomination: they shall
certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.
20:14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is infamy:
they shall burn him and them with fire, that there be no infamy
among you.
20:15 And if a man lie with a beast for copulation, he shall
certainly be put to death; and ye shall kill the beast.
20:16 And if a woman approach unto any beast to gender
therewith, thou shalt kill the woman and the beast: they shall
certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.
20:17 And if a man take his sister, his father's daughter, or
his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his
nakedness, that is a disgrace; and they shall be cut off before
the eyes of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his
sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
20:18 And if a man shall lie with a woman in her infirmity, and
uncover her nakedness, her flux doth he lay bare, and she hath
uncovered the fountain of her blood; and both of them shall be
cut off from among their people.
20:19 And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, and of thy
father's sister shalt thou not uncover; for he hath laid naked
his near relation: they shall bear their iniquity.
20:20 And if a man lie with his aunt, he hath uncovered his
uncle's nakedness: their sin shall they bear: they shall die
childless.
20:21 And if a man take his brother's wife, it is an unclean
thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness: they shall be
childless.
20:22 And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine
ordinances, and do them, that the land whither I bring you to
dwell therein vomit you not out.
20:23 And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I
am casting out before you; for all these things have they done,
and they became an abomination to me.
20:24 And I have said unto you, Ye shall possess their land, and
I will give it unto you for a possession; a land flowing with
milk and honey: I am Jehovah your God, who have separated you
from the peoples.
20:25 And ye shall make a separation between the clean beast and
the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean, and ye
shall not make yourselves an abomination by beast, or by fowl,
or by anything that creepeth on the ground which I have
separated for you, declaring [it] as unclean.
20:26 And ye shall be holy unto me; for I Jehovah am holy, and
have separated you from the peoples to be mine.
20:27 And if there be a man or a woman in whom is a spirit of
Python or of divination, they shall certainly be put to death:
they shall stone them with stones; their blood is upon them.
21:1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Speak unto the priests, the sons
of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none make himself
unclean for a dead person among his peoples,
21:2 except for his immediate relation, who is near unto him --
for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for
his daughter, and for his brother;
21:3 and for his sister, a virgin, that is near unto him, who
hath had no husband, for her may he make himself unclean.
21:4 He shall not make himself unclean [who is] a chief among
his peoples, to profane himself.
21:5 They shall not make any baldness upon their head, neither
shall they shave off the corners of their beard, nor make any
cuttings in their flesh.
21:6 They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name
of their God; for they present Jehovah's offerings by fire, the
bread of their God; therefore shall they be holy.
21:7 They shall not take as wife a whore, or a dishonoured
woman; neither shall they take a woman put away from her
husband; for he is holy unto his God.
21:8 And thou shalt hallow him; for the bread of thy God doth he
present: he shall be holy unto thee; for I, Jehovah, who hallow
you am holy.
21:9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by
playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be
burned with fire.
21:10 And the high priest among his brethren, on whose head the
anointing oil was poured, and who is consecrated to put on the
garments, shall not uncover his head, nor rend his garments.
21:11 Neither shall he come near any person dead, nor make
himself unclean for his father and for his mother;
21:12 neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the
sanctuary of his God; for the consecration of the anointing oil
of his God is upon him: I am Jehovah.
21:13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
21:14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or a dishonoured one, a
harlot, these shall he not take; but he shall take as wife a
virgin from among his peoples.
21:15 And he shall not profane his seed among his peoples; for I
am Jehovah who do hallow him.
21:16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
21:17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Any of thy seed throughout their
generations that hath any defect, shall not approach to present
the bread of his God;
21:18 for whatever man hath a defect, he shall not approach: a
blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or one limb
longer than the other,
21:19 or a man that is broken-footed, or broken-handed,
21:20 or hump-backed, or withered, or that hath a spot in his
eye, or hath the itch, or scabs, or his testicles broken.
21:21 No man of the seed of Aaron the priest that hath defect
shall come near to present Jehovah's offerings by fire: he hath
a defect; he shall not come near to present the bread of his
God.
21:22 The bread of his God, of the most holy and of the holy,
shall he eat;
21:23 only he shall not come in unto the veil, nor shall he draw
near unto the altar; for he hath a defect: that he profane not
my sanctuaries; for I am Jehovah who do hallow them.
21:24 And Moses told it to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all
the children of Israel.
22:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
22:2 Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, that they separate
themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and
that they profane not my holy name in the things that they
hallow unto me: I am Jehovah.
22:3 Say unto them, Every one of all your seed, throughout your
generations, that approacheth the holy things, which the
children of Israel hallow unto Jehovah, having his uncleanness
upon him, that soul shall be cut off from before me: I am
Jehovah.
22:4 Whatsoever man of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath a
flux, he shall not eat of the holy things, until he is clean.
And he that toucheth any one that is unclean by a dead person,
or a man whose seed of copulation hath passed from him;
22:5 or a man that toucheth any crawling thing whereby he
becometh unclean, or a man by whom he may become unclean,
whatever may be his uncleanness,
22:6 -- a person that toucheth any such shall be unclean until
even, and shall not eat of the holy things; but he shall bathe
his flesh with water,
22:7 and when the sun goeth down, he shall be clean, and may
afterwards eat of the holy things; for it is his food.
22:8 Of a dead carcase and what is torn shall he not eat, to
make himself unclean therewith: I am Jehovah.
22:9 And they shall keep my charge, lest they bear sin for it,
and die by it, if they profane it: I am Jehovah who do hallow
them.
22:10 And no stranger shall eat the holy thing; the sojourner
with the priest, and the hired servant, shall not eat of the
holy thing.
22:11 But if a priest buy any one for money, he may eat of it,
and he that is born in his house: they may eat of his food.
22:12 And a priest's daughter who is [married] to a stranger may
not eat of the heave-offering of the holy things.
22:13 But a priest's daughter that becometh a widow, or is
divorced, and hath no seed, and returneth unto her father's
house, as in her youth, she may eat of her father's food; but
no stranger shall eat thereof.
22:14 And if a man eat of a holy thing through inadvertence,
then he shall put the fifth part thereof unto it, and shall
give it unto the priest with the holy thing.
22:15 And they shall not profane the holy things of the children
of Israel which they offer unto Jehovah,
22:16 and cause them to bear the iniquity of trespass when they
eat their holy things; for I am Jehovah who do hallow them.
22:17 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
22:18 Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the
children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatever man of the
house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, that
presenteth his offering for any of his vows, and for any of his
voluntary offerings, which they present to Jehovah as a
burnt-offering,
22:19 it shall be for your acceptance, without blemish, a male
of the oxen, of the sheep, and of the goats.
22:20 Nothing that hath a defect shall ye present; for it shall
not be acceptable for you.
22:21 And if any present a sacrifice of peace-offering to
Jehovah to accomplish a vow, or a voluntary offering of oxen or
small cattle, it shall be without blemish to be accepted: there
shall be no defect therein.
22:22 Blind, or broken, or maimed, or ulcerous, or with itch, or
scabbed -- ye shall not present these to Jehovah, nor make an
offering by fire of them on the altar to Jehovah.
22:23 A bullock and a sheep that hath a member too long or too
short, that mayest thou offer as a voluntary offering; but as a
vow it shall not be accepted.
22:24 That which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut shall
ye not present to Jehovah; neither in your land shall ye do
[the like].
22:25 Nor from the hand of the stranger shall ye present the
bread of your God, of any of these; for their corruption is in
them: a defect is in them; they shall not be accepted for you.
22:26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
22:27 An ox, or a sheep, or a goat, when it is brought forth,
shall be seven days under its dam; and from the eighth day and
thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering by fire to
Jehovah.
22:28 A cow, or sheep -- it and its young shall ye not slaughter
in one day.
22:29 And when ye sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to
Jehovah, ye shall sacrifice it for your acceptance.
22:30 On that day shall it be eaten: ye shall leave none of it
until morning: I am Jehovah.
22:31 And ye shall observe my commandments and do them: I am
Jehovah.
22:32 And ye shall not profane my holy name; but I will be
hallowed among the children of Israel: I am Jehovah who do
hallow you,
22:33 who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God:
I am Jehovah.
23:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
23:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
[Concerning] the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim
as holy convocations -- these are my set feasts.
23:3 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the
sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; no manner of work shall ye
do: it is the sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.
23:4 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, holy convocations,
which ye shall proclaim in their seasons:
23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between
the two evenings, is the passover to Jehovah.
23:6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of
unleavened bread to Jehovah; seven days shall ye eat unleavened
bread.
23:7 On the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: no
manner of servile work shall ye do.
23:8 And ye shall present to Jehovah an offering by fire seven
days; on the seventh day is a holy convocation: no manner of
servile work shall ye do.
23:9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
23:10 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When
ye come into the land that I give unto you, and ye reap the
harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the
first-fruits of your harvest unto the priest.
23:11 And he shall wave the sheaf before Jehovah, to be accepted
for you; on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall
wave it.
23:12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf, a
he-lamb without blemish, a yearling, for a burnt-offering to
Jehovah;
23:13 and the oblation thereof: two tenths of fine flour mingled
with oil, an offering by fire to Jehovah for a sweet odour; and
the drink-offering thereof, of wine, a fourth part of a hin.
23:14 And ye shall not eat bread, or roast corn, or green ears,
until the same day that ye have brought the offering of your
God: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations
in all your dwellings.
23:15 And ye shall count from the morning after the sabbath,
from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering,
seven weeks; they shall be complete;
23:16 even unto the morning after the seventh sabbath shall ye
count fifty days; and ye shall present a new oblation to
Jehovah.
23:17 Out of your dwellings shall ye bring two wave-loaves, of
two tenths of fine flour; with leaven shall they be baken; [as]
first-fruits to Jehovah.
23:18 And ye shall present with the bread seven he-lambs without
blemish, yearlings, and one young bullock, and two rams: they
shall be a burnt-offering to Jehovah with their oblation, and
their drink-offerings, an offering by fire of a sweet odour to
Jehovah.
23:19 And ye shall sacrifice one buck of the goats for a
sin-offering, and two he-lambs, yearlings, for a sacrifice of
peace-offering.
23:20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the
first-fruits as a wave-offering before Jehovah, with the two
he-lambs; they shall be holy to Jehovah, for the priest.
23:21 And ye shall make proclamation on that same day -- a holy
convocation shall it be unto you: no manner of servile work
shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute in all your
dwellings throughout your generations.
23:22 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not
in thy harvest entirely reap the corners of thy field, and the
gleaning of thy harvest shalt thou not gather: thou shalt leave
them unto the poor and to the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
23:23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
23:24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh
month, on the first of the month, shall ye have a rest, a
memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
23:25 No manner of servile work shall ye do; and ye shall
present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
23:26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
23:27 Also on the tenth of this seventh month is the day of the
atonement: a holy convocation shall it be unto you; and ye
shall afflict your souls, and present an offering by fire to
Jehovah.
23:28 And ye shall do no manner of work on that same day; for it
is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Jehovah
your God.
23:29 For every soul that is not afflicted on that same day,
shall be cut off from among his peoples.
23:30 And every soul that doeth any manner of work on that same
day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
23:31 No manner of work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting
statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
23:32 A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you; and ye shall
afflict your souls. On the ninth of the month at even, from
even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
23:33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
23:34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, On the
fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of booths
seven days to Jehovah.
23:35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation: no
manner of servile work shall ye do.
23:36 Seven days ye shall present an offering by fire to
Jehovah; on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation unto
you; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah: it is
a solemn assembly; no manner of servile work shall ye do.
23:37 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall
proclaim as holy convocations, to present an offering by fire
to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, and an oblation, a sacrifice, and
drink-offerings, everything upon its day;
23:38 besides the sabbaths of Jehovah, and besides your gifts,
and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary
offerings, which ye give to Jehovah.
23:39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye
have gathered in the produce of the land, ye shall celebrate
the feast of Jehovah seven days: on the first day there shall
be rest, and on the eighth day there shall be rest.
23:40 And ye shall take on the first day the fruit of beautiful
trees, palm branches and the boughs of leafy trees, and willows
of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God
seven days.
23:41 And ye shall celebrate it as a feast to Jehovah seven days
in the year: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your
generations; in the seventh month shall ye celebrate it.
23:42 In booths shall ye dwell seven days; all born in Israel
shall dwell in booths;
23:43 that your generations may know that I caused the children
of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the
land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
23:44 And Moses declared the set feasts of Jehovah to the
children of Israel.
24:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
24:2 Command the children of Israel that they bring unto thee
pure beaten olive oil for the light, to light the lamp
continually.
24:3 Outside the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting,
shall Aaron dress it from evening to morning before Jehovah
continually: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your
generations.
24:4 Upon the pure candlestick shall he arrange the lamps before
Jehovah continually.
24:5 And thou shalt take fine wheaten flour, and bake twelve
cakes thereof; each cake shall be of two tenths.
24:6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the
pure table before Jehovah.
24:7 And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row; and it
shall be a bread of remembrance, an offering by fire to
Jehovah.
24:8 Every sabbath day he shall arrange it before Jehovah
continually, on the part of the children of Israel: [it is] an
everlasting covenant.
24:9 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat
it in a holy place; for it is most holy unto him of Jehovah's
offerings by fire: [it is] an everlasting statute.
24:10 And the son of an Israelitish woman -- but withal the son
of an Egyptian, -- went out among the children of Israel; and
this son of the Israelitess and a man of Israel strove together
in the camp;
24:11 and the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the Name, and
cursed; and they brought him to Moses. And his mother's name
was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
24:12 And they confined him, that they might decide at the mouth
of Jehovah.
24:13 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
24:14 Lead the reviler outside the camp; and all that heard
[him] shall lay their hands upon his head, and the whole
assembly shall stone him.
24:15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
Every one when he revileth his God shall bear his sin.
24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of Jehovah shall
certainly be put to death; all the assembly shall certainly
stone him; as well the stranger as he that is home-born, when
he blasphemeth the Name, shall be put to death.
24:17 And if any one smiteth any man mortally, he shall
certainly be put to death.
24:18 And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good,
life for life.
24:19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour, as he hath
done, so shall it be done to him;
24:20 breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he
hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him.
24:21 He that smiteth a beast [mortally] shall make it good; and
he that smiteth a man [mortally] shall be put to death.
24:22 Ye shall have one law: as the stranger, so the home-born;
for I am Jehovah your God.
24:23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they led
the reviler outside the camp and stoned him with stones. And
the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
25:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
25:2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When
ye come into the land that I will give you, the land shall
celebrate a sabbath to Jehovah.
25:3 Six years shalt thou sow thy field, and six years shalt
thou prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof,
25:4 but in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest for the
land, a sabbath to Jehovah. Thy field shalt thou not sow, and
thy vineyard shalt thou not prune.
25:5 That which springeth up from the scattered seed of thy
harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thine undressed
vines thou shalt not gather: a year of rest shall it be for the
land.
25:6 And the sabbath of the land shall be for food for you, for
thee, and for thy bondman, and for thy handmaid, and for thy
hired servant, and for him that dwelleth as a sojourner with
thee, and for thy cattle,
25:7 and for the beasts that are in thy land: all the produce
thereof shall be for food.
25:8 And thou shalt count seven sabbaths of years, seven times
seven years; so that the days of the seven sabbaths of years be
unto thee forty-nine years.
25:9 Then shalt thou cause the loud sound of the trumpet to go
forth in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; on the
day of atonement shall ye cause the trumpet to go forth
throughout your land.
25:10 And ye shall hallow the year of the fiftieth year, and
proclaim liberty in the land unto all the inhabitants thereof;
a [year of] jubilee shall it be unto you, and ye shall return
every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man
unto his family;
25:11 a year of jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye
shall not sow, neither reap its aftergrowth, nor gather [the
fruit of] its undressed vines.
25:12 For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; out of
the field shall ye eat its produce.
25:13 In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto
his possession.
25:14 And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your
neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another.
25:15 According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou
shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of
the produce, he shall sell unto thee.
25:16 According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt
increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of
years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the
number of crops that he selleth unto thee.
25:17 And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear
thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.
25:18 And ye shall do my statutes, and observe mine ordinances
and do them: thus shall ye dwell in your land securely.
25:19 And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat and
be satisfied, and dwell therein securely.
25:20 And if ye say, What shall we eat in the seventh year?
behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our produce;
25:21 then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth
year, that it may bring forth produce for three years;
25:22 and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat of
the old fruit until the ninth year; until her produce come in,
ye shall eat the old.
25:23 And the land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is
mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
25:24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a
redemption for the land.
25:25 If thy brother grow poor, and sell of his possession, then
shall his redeemer, his nearest relation, come and redeem that
which his brother sold.
25:26 And if the man have no one having right of redemption, and
his hand have acquired and found what sufficeth for its
redemption,
25:27 then shall he reckon the years since the sale thereof, and
restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so
return unto his possession.
25:28 And if his hand have not found what sufficeth for him to
restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the
hand of the purchaser, until the year of jubilee; and in the
jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return unto his
possession.
25:29 And if any one sell a dwelling-house in a walled city,
then he shall have the right of redemption up to the end of the
year of the sale thereof; for a full year shall he have the
right of redemption.
25:30 But if it be not redeemed until a whole year is complete,
then the house that is in the walled city shall be established
for ever to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it
shall not go out in the jubilee.
25:31 But the houses in villages that have no wall round about
them shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they may
be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
25:32 But as to the cities of the Levites, the houses in the
cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual
right of redemption.
25:33 And if any one redeem from one of the Levites, then the
house that was sold, in the city of his possession, shall go
out in the jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites
are their possession among the children of Israel.
25:34 And the field of the suburbs of their cities shall not be
sold; for it is their perpetual possession.
25:35 And if thy brother grow poor, and he be fallen into decay
beside thee, then thou shalt relieve him, [be he] stranger or
sojourner, that he may live beside thee.
25:36 Thou shalt take no usury nor increase of him; and thou
shalt fear thy God; that thy brother may live beside thee.
25:37 Thy money shalt thou not give him upon usury, nor lend him
thy victuals for increase.
25:38 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the
land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
25:39 And if thy brother grow poor beside thee, and be sold unto
thee, thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
25:40 as a hired servant, as a sojourner, shall he be with thee;
until the year of jubilee shall he serve thee.
25:41 Then shall he depart from thee, he and his children with
him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the
possession of his fathers shall he return.
25:42 For they are my bondmen, whom I brought forth out of the
land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as [men] sell bondmen.
25:43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; and thou shalt
fear thy God.
25:44 And as for thy bondman and thy handmaid whom thou shalt
have -- of the nations that are round about you, of them shall
ye buy bondmen and handmaids.
25:45 Moreover of the children of them that dwell as sojourners
with you, of them may ye buy, and of their family that is with
you, which they beget in your land, and they shall be your
possession.
25:46 And ye shall leave them as an inheritance to your children
after you, to inherit them as a possession: these may ye make
your bondmen for ever; but as for your brethren, the children
of Israel, ye shall not rule over one another with rigour.
25:47 And if a stranger or sojourner become wealthy beside thee,
and thy brother beside him grow poor, and sell himself unto the
stranger, who is settled by thee, or to a scion of the
stranger's family,
25:48 after that he is sold there shall be right of redemption
for him; one of his brethren may redeem him.
25:49 Either his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or one
of his next relations of his family may redeem him; or if his
means be sufficient, he may redeem himself.
25:50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year
that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price
of his sale shall be according to the number of the years,
according to the days of a hired servant shall he be with him.
25:51 If there are yet many years, according unto them shall he
return his redemption [money] out of the money that he was
bought for;
25:52 and if there remain but few years unto the year of
jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his
[remaining] years [of service] shall he give him back his
redemption [money].
25:53 As a hired servant shall he be with him year by year; [his
master] shall not rule with rigour over him before thine eyes.
25:54 And if he be not redeemed in this manner, then he shall go
out in the year of jubilee, he and his children with him.
25:55 For the children of Israel are servants unto me; they are
my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am
Jehovah your God.
26:1 Ye shall make yourselves no idols, neither rear you up for
yourselves carved image, or statue, nor shall ye set up a
figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it; for I am
Jehovah your God.
26:2 Ye shall observe my sabbaths, and my sanctuary shall ye
reverence: I am Jehovah.
26:3 If ye walk in my statutes, and observe my commandments and
do them,
26:4 then I will give your rain in the season thereof, and the
land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall
yield their fruit;
26:5 and your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the
vintage shall reach unto the sowing-time; and ye shall eat your
bread to the full, and dwell in your land securely.
26:6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down,
and none shall make you afraid; and I will put away the evil
beasts out of the land; and the sword shall not go through your
land.
26:7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before
you by the sword;
26:8 and five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you
shall put ten thousand to flight; and your enemies shall fall
beside you by the sword.
26:9 And I will turn my face towards you and make you fruitful,
and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
26:10 And ye shall eat old store, and clear away the old because
of the new.
26:11 And I will set my habitation among you; and my soul shall
not abhor you;
26:12 and I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye
shall be to me a people.
26:13 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the
land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have
broken the bands of your yoke, and made you walk upright.
26:14 But if ye hearken not unto me, and do not all these
commandments,
26:15 and if ye shall despise my statutes, and if your soul
shall abhor mine ordinances, so that ye do not all my
commandments, that ye break my covenant,
26:16 I also will do this unto you -- I will even appoint over
you terror, consumption, and fever, which shall cause the eyes
to fail, and the soul to waste away; and ye shall sow your seed
in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
26:17 And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed
before your enemies; they that hate you shall have dominion
over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
26:18 And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you
sevenfold more for your sins,
26:19 and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will
make your heaven as iron, and your earth as bronze,
26:20 and your strength shall be spent in vain, and your land
shall not yield its produce; and the trees of the land shall
not yield their fruit.
26:21 And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto
me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you according to
your sins.
26:22 And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that
they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and
make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.
26:23 And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but
walk contrary unto me,
26:24 then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will smite
you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
26:25 And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the
vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered together
into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and
ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26:26 When I break the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake
your bread in one oven, and shall deliver you the bread again
by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
26:27 And if for this ye hearken not to me, but walk contrary
unto me,
26:28 then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I,
even I, will chastise you seven-fold for your sins.
26:29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of
your daughters shall ye eat.
26:30 And I will lay waste your high places, and cut down your
sun-pillars, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your
idols; and my soul shall abhor you.
26:31 And I will lay waste your cities and desolate your
sanctuaries; and I will not smell your sweet odours.
26:32 And I will bring the land into desolation; that your
enemies who dwell there in may be astonished at it.
26:33 And I will scatter you among the nations, and will draw
out the sword after you; and your land shall be desolation, and
your cities waste.
26:34 Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths all the days of the
desolation, when ye are in your enemies' land; then shall the
land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.
26:35 All the days of the desolation it shall rest, [the days
in] which it did not rest on your sabbaths, when ye dwelt
therein.
26:36 And as to those that remain of you -- I will send
faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, that
the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them, and they shall
flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none
pursueth;
26:37 and they shall stumble one over another, as it were before
a sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to
stand before your enemies.
26:38 And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of
your enemies shall eat you up.
26:39 And they that remain of you shall waste away through their
iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also through the
iniquities of their fathers shall they waste away with them.
26:40 And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of
their fathers, through their unfaithfulness wherein they were
unfaithful to me, and also that they have walked contrary unto
me,
26:41 so that I also walked contrary unto them, and brought them
into the land of their enemies. If then their uncircumcised
heart be humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their
iniquity,
26:42 I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my
covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I
remember; and I will remember the land.
26:43 For the land shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its
sabbaths, when it is in desolation without them; and they shall
accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because
they despised my judgments, and their soul abhorred my
statutes.
26:44 And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their
enemies, I will not despise them, and will not abhor them, to
make an end of them utterly, to break my covenant with them,
for I am Jehovah their God.
26:45 But I will remember toward them the covenant with their
ancestors whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before
the eyes of the nations, that I might be their God: I am
Jehovah.
26:46 These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which
Jehovah made between him and the children of Israel in mount
Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
27:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
27:2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When
any one devoteth [anything] by a vow, the persons shall be for
Jehovah according to thy valuation.
27:3 And thy valuation shall be of the male from twenty years
old even unto sixty years old: thy valuation shall be fifty
shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary;
27:4 and if it be of a female, thy valuation shall be thirty
shekels.
27:5 And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years
old, thy valuation of the male shall be twenty shekels, and for
the female ten shekels.
27:6 And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, thy
valuation of the male shall be five shekels of silver; and for
the female thy valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
27:7 And if it be from sixty years old and above, if it be a
male, thy valuation shall be fifteen shekels; and for the
female ten shekels.
27:8 And if he be poorer than thy valuation, he shall present
himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him:
according to his means that vowed shall the priest value him.
27:9 And if it be a beast whereof men bring an offering unto
Jehovah, all that they give of such unto Jehovah shall be holy.
27:10 They shall not alter it nor change it, a good for a bad,
or a bad for a good; and if he at all change beast for beast,
then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.
27:11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not bring
an offering unto Jehovah, then he shall present the beast
before the priest;
27:12 and the priest shall value it, [judging] between good and
bad: according to the valuation of the priest, so shall it be.
27:13 And if they will in any wise redeem it, then they shall
add a fifth [part] thereof unto thy valuation.
27:14 And when any one halloweth his house, that it may be holy
to Jehovah, the priest shall value it, [judging] between good
and bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.
27:15 And if he that halloweth it will redeem his house, he
shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it, and
it shall be his.
27:16 And if a man hallow to Jehovah [part] of a field of his
possession, thy valuation shall be according to what may be
sown in it: the homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of
silver.
27:17 If he hallow his field from the year of jubilee, according
to thy valuation shall it stand;
27:18 but if he hallow his field after the jubilee, then the
priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years
that remain, until the year of the jubilee; and there shall be
a reduction from thy valuation.
27:19 And if he that hallowed the field will in any wise redeem
it, he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto
it, and it shall be assured to him;
27:20 but if he do not redeem the field, or if he sell the field
to another man, it cannot be redeemed any more;
27:21 and the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be
holy to Jehovah, as a field devoted; the possession thereof
shall be the priest's.
27:22 And if he hallow to Jehovah a field that he hath bought,
which is not of the fields of his possession,
27:23 the priest shall reckon unto him the amount of thy
valuation, unto the year of the jubilee; and he shall give thy
valuation on that day, [as] holy to Jehovah.
27:24 In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him
of whom it was bought -- to him to whom the land belonged.
27:25 And all thy valuation shall be according to the shekel of
the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
27:26 Only the firstling which is offered as firstling to
Jehovah among the cattle, that shall no man hallow, whether it
be ox or sheep; it is Jehovah's.
27:27 But if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it
according to thy valuation, and shall add a fifth of it
thereto; and if it be not redeemed, it shall be sold according
to thy valuation.
27:28 Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man hath devoted
to Jehovah of all that he hath, of man or beast, or of the
field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every
devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.
27:29 Nothing devoted, which shall be devoted from among men,
shall be ransomed: it shall certainly be put to death.
27:30 And as to every tithe of the land, of the seed of the
land, and of the fruit of the tree, it is Jehovah's: it is holy
to Jehovah.
27:31 And if any one will at all redeem of his tithes, he shall
add thereto the fifth thereof.
27:32 And as to every tithe of the herd, or of the flock, of
whatever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to
Jehovah.
27:33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither
shall he change it; and if he change it at all, then both it
and the exchange thereof shall be holy; it shall not be
redeemed.
27:34 These are the commandments which Jehovah commanded Moses
for the children of Israel upon mount Sinai.
