Leviticus 24
1 And the Lord said to Moses,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 Give orders to the children of Israel to give you clean olive oil for the light, so that a light may be burning at all times,
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure beaten olive-oil, for the lighting, to cause the lamp to burn continually.
3 Outside the veil of the ark in the Tent of meeting; let Aaron see that it is burning from evening till morning at all times before the Lord: it is a rule for ever through all your generations.
Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron put it in order [for] from evening unto morning before the Lord continually; as a statute for ever in your generations.
4 Let Aaron put the lights in order on the support before the Lord at all times.
Upon the pure candlestick shall be put in order the lamps, before the Lord, continually.
5 And take the best meal and make twelve cakes of it, a fifth part of an ephah in every cake.
And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake thereof twelve cakes: of two tenth parts shall each one cake be.
6 And put them in two lines, six in a line, on the holy table before the Lord.
And thou shalt place them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure table before the Lord.
7 And on the lines of cakes put clean sweet-smelling spices, for a sign on the bread, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
And thou shalt put upon each row pure frankincense, that it may be unto the bread for a memorial, as a fire-offering unto the Lord.
8 Every Sabbath day regularly, the priest is to put it in order before the Lord: it is offered for the children of Israel, an agreement made for ever.
On every and each sabbath day shall he place it in order before the Lord continually, [obtained] from the children of Israel as an everlasting covenant.
9 And it will be for Aaron and his sons; they are to take it for food in a holy place: it is the most holy of all the offerings made by fire to the Lord, a rule for ever.
And it shall belong to Aaron and to his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy unto him, from the fire-offerings of the Lord, as a perpetual fixed portion.
10 And a son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel and had a fight with a man of Israel by the tents;
And there went forth a son of an Israelitish woman, but who was the son of an Egyptian man, among the children of Israel; and there quarrelled together in the camp this son of the Israelitish woman and an Israelitish man.
11 And the son of the Israelite woman said evil against the holy Name, with curses; and they took him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
And the son of the Israelitish woman pronounced the [holy] Name, and blasphemed; and they brought him unto Moses: [and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan; ]
12 And they kept him shut up, till a decision might be given by the mouth of the Lord.
And they placed him in ward, until the decision of the Lord could be explained to them.
13 And the Lord said to Moses,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
14 Take the curser outside the tent-circle; and let all in whose hearing the words were said put their hands on his head, and let him be stoned by all the people.
Lead forth the blasphemer to without the camp; and all that have heard him shall lay their hands upon his head; and all the congregation shall stone him.
15 And say to the children of Israel, As for any man cursing God, his sin will be on his head.
And unto the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, Whatsoever man that blasphemeth his God shall bear his sin.
16 And he who says evil against the name of the Lord will certainly be put to death; he will be stoned by all the people; the man who is not of your nation and one who is an Israelite by birth, whoever says evil against the holy Name is to be put to death.
But he that pronounced the name of the Lord [with blasphemy] shall be put to death, all the congregation shall stone him; be he a stranger, or be he one that is born in the land, when he pronounceth the [holy] Name [with blasphemy, ] he shall be put to death.
17 And anyone who takes another's life is certainly to be put to death.
And he that taketh the life of any man shall surely be put to death.
18 And anyone wounding a beast and causing its death, will have to make payment for it: a life for a life.
And he that taketh the life of a beast shall make it good: beast for beast.
19 And if a man does damage to his neighbour, as he has done, so let it be done to him;
And if a man cause a bodily defect in his neighbor, as he hath done, so shall be done to him;
20 Wound for wound, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; whatever damage he has done, so let it be done to him.
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: in the manner as he hath caused a bodily defect in a man, so shall it be done to him.
21 He who puts a beast to death will have to make payment for it; he who puts a man to death will himself be put to death.
And he that killeth a beast, shall make restitution for it; and he that killeth a man, shall be put to death.
22 You are to have the same law for a man of another nation living among you as for an Israelite; for I am the Lord your God.
One manner of judicial law shall ye have, the stranger shall be equal with one of your own country; for I am the Lord your God.
23 And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, and they took the man who had been cursing outside the tent-circle and had him stoned. The children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they led forth the blasphemer to without the camp, and they stoned him with stones; and the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
