Numbers 15
1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land of your habitation, which I will give you,
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye are come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,
3 and you make an offering to the Lord, as a holocaust or as a victim, paying your vows, or as a voluntary offering of gifts, or in your solemnities, burning a sweet odor to the Lord, whether from the oxen or from the sheep:
and will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice, in fulfilment of a vow clearly uttered, or as a freewill-offering, or in your appointed seasons, to make a sweet savour unto the LORD, of the herd, or of the flock;
4 whoever immolates the victim shall offer a sacrifice of fine wheat flour, the tenth part of an ephah, sprinkled with oil, which shall have the measure of the fourth part of a hin,
then shall he that bringeth his offering present unto the LORD a meal-offering of a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour mingled with the fourth part of a hin of oil;
5 and he shall give the same measure of wine, poured out as libations, whether as a holocaust or as a victim.
and wine for the drink-offering, the fourth part of a hin, shalt thou prepare with the burnt-offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.
6 With each lamb and each ram, there shall be a sacrifice of fine wheat flour, of two tenths, which shall be sprinkled with one third part of a hin of oil.
Or for a ram, thou shalt prepare for a meal-offering two tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour mingled with the third part of a hin of oil;
7 And he shall offer the same measure, one third part of wine, for the libation, as a sweet odor to the Lord.
and for the drink-offering thou shalt present the third part of a hin of wine, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
8 Yet truly, when you will offer, from the oxen, a holocaust or a victim, in order to fulfill your vow or for peace-offering victims,
And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt-offering, or for a sacrifice, in fulfilment of a vow clearly uttered, or for peace-offerings unto the LORD;
9 you shall give, for each ox, three tenths of fine wheat flour, sprinkled with oil, which has the measure of one half of one hin,
then shall there be presented with the bullock a meal-offering of three tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour mingled with half a hin of oil.
10 and the wine, poured out as libations, shall be of the same measure, as an oblation of most sweet odor to the Lord.
And thou shalt present for the drink-offering half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
11 So shall you do
Thus shall it be done for each bullock, or for each ram, or for each of the he-lambs, or of the kids.
12 for each ox, and ram, and lamb, and young goat.
According to the number that ye may prepare, so shall ye do for every one according to their number.
13 Both natives and sojourners
All that are home-born shall do these things after this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
14 shall offer sacrifices by the same rituals.
And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever may be among you, throughout your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do.
15 There shall be one precept and one judgment, as much for yourselves as for newcomers to the land.”
As for the congregation, there shall be one statute both for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you, a statute for ever throughout your generations; as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD.
16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
One law and one ordinance shall be both for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
17 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
18 When you will arrive in the land which I will give to you,
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land whither I bring you,
19 and when you will eat from the bread of that region, you shall separate the first-fruits to the Lord
then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall set apart a portion for a gift unto the LORD.
20 from the foods that you eat. Just as you separate the first-fruits of your threshing floors,
Of the first of your dough ye shall set apart a cake for a gift; as that which is set apart of the threshing-floor, so shall ye set it apart.
21 so also shall you give the first-fruits of your cooked grains to the Lord.
Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD a portion for a gift throughout your generations.
22 And if, through ignorance, you neglect any of these things, which the Lord has spoken to Moses,
And when ye shall err, and not observe all these commandments, which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses,
23 and which he has commanded through him for you, from the day that he began to command and thereafter,
even all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the LORD gave commandment, and onward throughout your generations;
24 and if the multitude will have forgotten to do it, then they shall offer a calf from the herd, a holocaust as a most sweet odor to the Lord, and its sacrifice and libations, just as the ceremonies ask, and a he-goat for sin.
then it shall be, if it be done in error by the congregation, it being hid from their eyes, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt-offering, for a sweet savour unto the LORD — with the meal-offering thereof, and the drink-offering thereof, according to the ordinance — and one he-goat for a sin-offering.
25 And the priest shall pray for the entire multitude of the sons of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them, because they did not sin willfully. Nevertheless, they shall offer incense to the Lord for themselves, and for sin, as well as for their error.
And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering made by fire unto the LORD, and their sin-offering before the LORD, for their error.
26 And it shall be forgiven all the people of the sons of Israel, as well as the newcomers who sojourn among them, for it is the culpability of all the people through neglect.
And all the congregation of the children of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger that sojourneth among them; for in respect of all the people it was done in error.
27 But if one soul will have sinned by not knowing, he shall offer a one-year-old she-goat for his sin.
And if one person sin through error, then he shall offer a she-goat of the first year for a sin-offering.
28 And the priest shall pray for him, because he sinned unknowingly before the Lord. And he shall obtain pardon for him, and it will be forgiven him.
And the priest shall make atonement for the soul that erreth, when he sinneth through error, before the LORD, to make atonement for him; and he shall be forgiven,
29 One law shall be for all who sin by ignorance, as much for natives as for newcomers.
both he that is home-born among the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them: ye shall have one law for him that doeth aught in error.
30 Yet truly, the soul who commits any of these acts through arrogance, whether he is a citizen or a sojourner, because he has rebelled against the Lord, shall perish from among his people.
But the soul that doeth aught with a high hand, whether he be home-born or a stranger, the same blasphemeth the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
31 For he has despised the word of the Lord, and he has nullified his precept. For this reason, he shall be destroyed, and he shall bear his iniquity.”
Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken His commandment; that soul shall utterly be cut off, his iniquity shall be upon him.
32 And it happened that, when the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, and they had found a man collecting wood on the day of the Sabbath,
And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks upon the sabbath day.
33 they brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to the whole multitude.
And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
34 And they enclosed him in a prison, not knowing what they should do with him.
And they put him in ward, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.
35 And the Lord said to Moses, “Let that man be put to death; let the entire crowd crush him with stones, outside the camp.”
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'The man shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.'
36 And when they had led him out, they overwhelmed him with stones, and he died, just as the Lord had instructed.
And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died, as the LORD commanded Moses.
37 The Lord also said to Moses:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
38 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall tell them to make for themselves hems at the corners of their cloaks, placing in them ribbons of hyacinth,
'Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them throughout their generations fringes in the corners of their garments, and that they put with the fringe of each corner a thread of blue.
39 so that, when they see these, they may remember all the commandments of the Lord, and they may not follow their own thoughts and eyes, fornicating in various ways,
And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye go not about after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go astray;
40 but instead, they, being more mindful of the precepts of the Lord, may do them and may be holy to their God.
that ye may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy unto your God.
41 I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I may be your God.”
I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God.'
