< Numbers 15 >

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, Whe ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I giue vnto you,
Say to the children of Israel, When you have come into the land which I am giving to you for your resting-place,
3 And will make an offring by fire vnto the Lord, a burnt offring or a sacrifice to fulfil a vowe, or a free offring, or in your feastes, to make a sweete sauour vnto the Lord of the hearde, or of the flocke.
And are going to make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burned offering or an offering in connection with an oath, or an offering freely given, or at your regular feasts, an offering for a sweet smell to the Lord, from the herd or the flock:
4 Then let him that offreth his offring vnto the Lord, bring a meate offring of a tenth deale of fine flowre, mingled with the fourth part of an Hin of oyle.
Then let him who is making his offering, give to the Lord a meal offering of a tenth part of a measure of the best meal mixed with a fourth part of a hin of oil:
5 Also thou shalt prepare ye fourth part of an Hin of wine to be powred on a lambe, appointed for the burnt offring or any offring.
And for the drink offering, you are to give with the burned offering or other offering, the fourth part of a hin of wine for every lamb.
6 And for a ram, thou shalt for a meat offring, prepare two tenth deales of fine floure, mingled with the third part of an Hin of oyle.
Or for a male sheep, give as a meal offering two tenth parts of a measure of the best meal mixed with a third part of a hin of oil:
7 And for a drinke-offering, thou shalt offer the third part of an Hin of wine, for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
And for the drink offering give a third part of a hin of wine, for a sweet smell to the Lord.
8 And when thou preparest a bullocke for a burnt offring, or for a sacrifice to fulfill a vowe or a peace offring to the Lord,
And when you make ready a young ox for a burned or other offering, or for the effecting of an oath, or for peace-offerings to the Lord:
9 Then let him offer with ye bullocke a meate offring of three tenth deales of fine floure, mingled with halfe an Hin of oyle.
Then with the ox give a meal offering of three tenth parts of a measure of the best meal mixed with half a hin of oil.
10 And thou shalt bring for a drinke offring halfe an Hin of wine, for an offring made by fire of a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
And for the drink offering: give half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.
11 Thus shall it be done for a bullocke, or for a ram, or for a lambe, or for a kid.
This is to be done for every young ox and for every male sheep or he-lamb or young goat.
12 According to the nomber that yee prepare to offer, so shall yee doe to euery one according to their nomber.
Whatever number you make ready, so you are to do for every one.
13 All that are borne of the countrey, shall do these things thus, to offer an offring made by fire of sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
All those who are Israelites by birth are to do these things in this way, when giving an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord.
14 And if a stranger soiourne with you, or whosoeuer bee among you in your generations, and will make an offring by fire of a sweete sauour vnto the Lord, as ye do, so hee shall doe.
And if a man from another country or any other person living among you, through all your generations, has the desire to give an offering made by fire of a sweet smell to the Lord, let him do as you do.
15 One ordinance shalbe both for you of the Congregation, and also for the stranger that dwelleth with you, euen an ordinance for euer in your generations: as you are, so shall the stranger bee before the Lord.
There is to be one law for you and for the man of another country living with you, one law for ever from generation to generation; as you are, so is he to be before the Lord.
16 One Lawe and one maner shall serue both for you and for the stranger that soiourneth with you.
The law and the rule are to be the same for you and for those from other lands living with you.
17 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
And the Lord said to Moses,
18 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come into the lande, to the which I bring you,
Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land where I am guiding you,
19 And when ye shall eate of the bread of the land, ye shall offer an heaue offring vnto ye Lord.
Then, when you take for your food the produce of the land, you are to give an offering lifted up before the Lord.
20 Ye shall offer vp a cake of the first of your dowe for an heaue offring: as the heaue offring of the barne, so ye shall lift it vp.
Of the first of your rough meal you are to give a cake for a lifted offering, lifting it up before the Lord as the offering of the grain-floor is lifted up.
21 Of the first of your dowe ye shall giue vnto the Lord an heaue offring in your generations.
From generation to generation you are to give to the Lord a lifted offering from the first of your rough meal.
22 And if ye haue erred, and not obserued all these commandements, which the Lord hath spoken vnto Moses,
And if in error you go against any of these laws which the Lord has given to Moses,
23 Euen all that the Lord hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the first day that the Lord commanded Moses, and hence forward among your generations:
All the laws which the Lord has given you by the hand of Moses, from the day when the Lord gave them, and ever after from generation to generation;
24 And if so be that ought be committed ignorantly of the Congregation, then all ye Congregatio shall giue a bullocke for a burnt offring, for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord, with the meat offring and drinke offring thereto, according to the maner, and an hee goate for a sinne offring.
Then, if the wrong is done in error, without the knowledge of the meeting of the people, let all the meeting give a young ox as a burned offering, a sweet smell to the Lord, with its meal offering and its drink offering, as is ordered in the law, together with a he-goat for a sin-offering.
25 And the Priest shall make an atonement for al the Congregation of the children of Israel, and it shalbe forgiuen them: for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offring for an offring made by fire vnto the Lord, and their sinne offering before the Lord for their ignorance.
So the priest will make the people free from sin, and they will have forgiveness; for it was an error, and they have given their offering made by fire to the Lord, and their sin-offering before the Lord, on account of their error:
26 Then it shalbe forgiuen all the Congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that dwelleth among them: for all the people were in ignorance.
And all the meeting of the children of Israel, as well as those from other lands living among them, will have forgiveness; for it was an error on the part of the people.
27 But if any one person sinne through ignorance, then he shall bring a shee goate of a yeere olde for a sinne offring.
And if one person does wrong, without being conscious of it, then let him give a she-goat of the first year for a sin-offering.
28 And the Priest shall make an atonement for the ignorant person, when hee sinneth by ignorance before the Lord, to make reconciliation for him: and it shalbe forgiuen him.
And the priest will take away the sin of the person who has done wrong, if the wrong was done unconsciously, and he will have forgiveness.
29 He that is borne among the children of Israel, and the stranger that dwelleth among them, shall haue both one lawe, who so doth sinne by ignorance.
The law in connection with wrong done unconsciously is to be the same for him who is an Israelite by birth and for the man from another country who is living among them.
30 But the person that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be borne in the land, or a stranger, the same blasphemeth the Lord: therefore that person shalbe cut off from among his people,
But the person who does wrong in the pride of his heart, if he is one of you or of another nation by birth, is acting without respect for the Lord, and will be cut off from his people.
31 Because he hath despised the worde of the Lord, and hath broken his commandement: that person shalbe vtterly cut off: his iniquitie shalbe vpon him.
Because he had no respect for the word of the Lord, and did not keep his law, that man will be cut off without mercy and his sin will be on him.
32 And while the children of Israel were in the wildernesse, they found a man that gathered stickes vpon the Sabbath day.
Now while the children of Israel were in the waste land, they saw a man who was getting sticks on the Sabbath day.
33 And they that found him gathering sticks, brought him vnto Moses and to Aaron, and vnto all the Congregation,
And those who saw him getting sticks took him before Moses and Aaron and all the people.
34 And they put him warde: for it was not declared what should be done vnto him.
And they had him shut up, because they had no directions about what was to be done with him.
35 Then the Lord said vnto Moses, This man shall dye the death: and let al the multitude stone him with stones without the hoste.
Then the Lord said to Moses, Certainly the man is to be put to death: let him be stoned by all the people outside the tent-circle.
36 And all the Congregation brought him without the hoste, and stoned him with stones, and he died, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
So all the people took him outside the tent-circle and he was stoned to death there, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
37 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
And the Lord said to Moses,
38 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes vpon the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and put vpon the fringes of the borders a ryband of blewe silke.
Say to the children of Israel that through all their generations they are to put on the edges of their robes an ornament of twisted threads, and in every ornament a blue cord;
39 And ye shall haue the fringes, that when ye looke vpon them, ye may remember all the commandemets of the Lord, and do them: and that ye seeke not after your own heart, nor after your owne eyes, after the which ye go a whoring;
So that, looking on these ornaments, you may keep in mind the orders of the Lord and do them; and not be guided by the desires of your hearts and eyes, through which you have been untrue to me:
40 That yee may remember and doe all my commandements, and bee holy vnto your God.
And that you may keep in mind all my orders and do them and be holy to your God.
41 I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the lande of Egypt, to bee your God: I am the Lord your God.
I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, so that I might be your God: I am the Lord your God.
