“Order the Israelites to bring you pure, pressed olive oil for the lamps, so they will always stay lit.

From evening until morning Aaron is to constantly look after the lamps continually before the Lord, outside the veil of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations.

Every Sabbath day the bread shall be placed before the Lord, given by the Israelites as an ongoing sign of the eternal agreement.

It is for Aaron and his descendants. They are to eat it in a holy place; for they must treat it as a most holy part of the food offerings given to the Lord. It is their share of the food offerings for all time.”

The Israelite woman's son cursed the name of the Lord. So they took him before Moses. (His mother's name was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri, from the tribe of Dan.)
12 Te dongah a lungbuei loh BOEIPA olpaek te a puk duela anih te thongim ah a khoh uh.
They detained him until it was clear what the Lord wanted them to do about it.

The Lord told Moses,
14 Thae aka phoei te rhaehhmuen vongvoel la khuen uh. Aka ya boeih loh anih lu soah a kut tloeng uh saeh. Anih te rhaengpuei boeih loh dae uh saeh.
“Take the man who cursed me outside the camp. Have all who heard him curse put their hands on his head; then have everyone stone him to death.

Anyone who curses the name of the Lord must to be executed. All of you must stone them to death, whether they are a foreigner who lives with you or an Israelite. If they curse my name, they must be executed.

If anyone injures someone else, whatever they've done must be done to them:
20 Rhuh tlawt ham rhuh tlawt, mik ham mik, no ham no van, hlang soah nganboh a paek vanbangla amah te pae van saeh.
a broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Whatever way they injured the victim, the same must be done to them.
21 Rhamsa aka ngawn khaw a yueng thuung sak lamtah hlang aka ngawn tah duek saeh.
Anyone who kills an animal has to replace it, but anyone who kills someone else must be executed.

The same laws apply to foreigners who live with you as to Israelites, for I am the Lord your God.”
