Leviticus 24
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may bring to you clear oil from the purest olives, in order to supply the lamps continuously
'Command the sons of Israel, and they bring unto thee pure olive oil, beaten, for the lamp, to cause a light to go up continually;
3 outside the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall place these, from evening until morning, before the Lord, as a perpetual worship and ritual in your generations.
at the outside of the vail of the testimony in the tent of meeting doth Aaron arrange it from evening till morning before Jehovah continually — a statute age-during to your generations;
4 They shall be placed upon the most pure candlestick in the sight of the Lord always.
by the pure candlestick he doth arrange the lights before Jehovah continually.
5 You shall also receive fine wheat flour, and you shall bake twelve loaves from it, each loaf of which shall have two-tenths.
'And thou hast taken flour, and hast baked twelve cakes with it, two tenth deals are in the one cake,
6 And you shall arrange them, six on each side, upon the most pure table before the Lord.
and thou hast set them two ranks (six in the rank) on the pure table before Jehovah,
7 And you shall place upon them the clearest frankincense, so that the bread may be a memorial of oblation for the Lord.
and thou hast put on the rank pure frankincense, and it hath been to the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering to Jehovah.
8 On each Sabbath, they shall be changed before the Lord, having been received from the sons of Israel as an everlasting covenant.
'On each sabbath-day he arrangeth it before Jehovah continually, from the sons of Israel — a covenant age-during;
9 And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, so that they may eat these in the holy place; for it is the Holy of holies from the sacrifices of the Lord, as a perpetual right.
and it hath been to Aaron, and to his sons, and they have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] most holy to him, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah — a statute age-during.'
10 Then, behold, the son of an Israelite woman, whom she had born of an Egyptian man among the sons of Israel, going out, was quarreling in the camp with a man of Israel.
And a son of an Israelitish woman goeth out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man), in the midst of the sons of Israel, and strive in the camp do the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel,
11 And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was led to Moses. (Now his mother was called Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri from the tribe of Dan.)
and the son of the Israelitish woman execrateth the Name, and revileth; and they bring him in unto Moses; and his mother's name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
12 And they sent him to prison, until they might know what the Lord would command,
and he causeth him to rest in charge — to explain to them by the mouth of Jehovah.
13 who spoke to Moses,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
14 saying: Lead away the blasphemer beyond the camp, and let all who heard him place their hands upon his head, and let the entire people stone him.
'Bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the company have stoned him.
15 And you shall say to the sons of Israel: The man who curses his God shall bear his sin,
'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When any man revileth his God — then he hath borne his sin;
16 and whoever will have blasphemed the name of the Lord shall be put to death. The entire multitude shall overwhelm him with stones, whether he be a citizen or a sojourner. Whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall be put to death.
and he who is execrating the name of Jehovah is certainly put to death; all the company do certainly cast stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, is put to death.
17 Whoever will have struck and killed a man shall be put to death.
'And when a man smiteth any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
18 Whoever will have struck down an animal shall repay its equivalent, that is, a life for a life.
'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, body for body.
19 Whoever will have inflicted a blemish on any of his citizens, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
'And when a man putteth a blemish in his fellow, as he hath done so it is done to him;
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he repay. Whatever degree of blemish he has inflicted, so shall he be compelled to suffer.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he putteth a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
21 Whoever strikes down a beast, shall repay another. Whoever strikes a man shall be punished.
'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, and he who smiteth [the life of] man is put to death;
22 Let there be equal judgment among you, whether it is a sojourner or a citizen who will have sinned. For I am the Lord your God.
one judgment is to you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I [am] Jehovah your God.'
23 And Moses spoke to the sons of Israel. And they led away him who had blasphemed, beyond the camp, and they overwhelmed him with stones. And the sons of Israel did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones; and the sons of Israel have done as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
