Numbers 15

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 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,

Speak to the children of Israel and thou shalt say to them: When you shall be come into the land of your habitation, which I will give you,

3 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;

And shall make an offering to the Lord, for a holocaust, or a victim, paying your vows, or voluntarily offering gifts, or in your solemnities burning a sweet savour unto the Lord, of oxen or of sheep:

4 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;

Whosoever immolateth the victim, shall offer a sacrifice of fine flour, the tenth part of an ephi, tempered with the fourth part of a hin of oil:

5 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.

And he shall give the same measure of wine to pour out in libations for the holocaust or for the victim. For every lamb,

6 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;

And for every ram there shall be a sacrifice of hour of two tenths, which shall be tempered with the third part of a hin of oil:

7 and for the drink-offering thou shalt present the third part of a hin of wine, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

And he shall offer the third part of the same measure of wine for the libation, for a sweet savour to the Lord.

8 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;

But when thou offerest a holocaust or sacrifice of oxen, to fulfill thy vow or for victims of peace offerings,

9 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.

Thou shalt give for every ox three tenths of flour tempered with half a hin of oil,

10 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.

And wine for libations of the same measure, for an offering of most sweet savour to the Lord.

11 Thus shall it be done for each bullock, or for each ram, or for each of the he-lambs, or of the kids.

Thus shalt thou do:

12 According to the number that ye may prepare, so shall ye do for every one according to their number.

For every ox and ram and lamb and kid.

13 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.

Both they that are born in the land, and the strangers,

14 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.

Shall offer sacrifices after the same rite.

15 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.

There shall be all one law and judgment both for you and for them who are strangers in the land.

16 One law and one ordinance shall be both for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

17 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them:

18 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land whither I bring you,

When you are come into the land which I will give you,

19 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.

And shall eat of the bread of that country, you shall separate firstfruits to the Lord,

20 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.

Of the things you eat. As you separate firstfruits of your barnfloors:

21 Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD a portion for a gift throughout your generations.

So also shall you give firstfruits of your dough to the Lord.

22 And when ye shall err, and not observe all these commandments, which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses,

And if through ignorance you omit any of these things, which the Lord hath spoken to Moses,

23 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;

And by him hath commanded you, from the day that he began to command and thenceforward,

24 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.

And the multitude have forgotten to do it: they shall offer a calf out of the herd, a holocaust for a most sweet savour to the Lord, and the sacrifice and libations thereof, as the ceremonies require, and a buck goat for sin:

25 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.

And the priest shall pray for all the multitude of the children of Israel: and it shall be forgiven them, because they sinned ignorantly, offering notwithstanding a burnt offering to the Lord for themselves and for their sin and their ignorance:

26 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.

And it shall be forgiven all the people of the children of Israel: and the strangers that sojourn among them: because it is the fault of all the people through ignorance.

27 And if one person sin through error, then he shall offer a she-goat of the first year for a sin-offering.

But if one soul shall sin ignorantly, he shall offer a she goat of a year old for his sin.

28 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,

And the priest shall pray for him, because he sinned ignorantly before the Lord: and he shall obtain his pardon, and it shall be forgiven him.

29 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.

The same law shall be for all that sin by ignorance, whether they be natives or strangers.

30 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.

But the soul that committeth any thing through pride, whether he be born in the land or a stranger (because he hath been rebellious against the Lord) shall be cut off from among his people:

31 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.

For he hath contemned the word the Lord, and made void his precept: therefore shall he be destroyed, and shall bear his iniquity.

32 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks upon the sabbath day.

And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were in the wilderness, and had found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath day,

33 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.

That they brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole multitude.

34 And they put him in ward, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.

And they put him into prison, not knowing what they should do with him.

35 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.'

And the Lord said to Moses: Let that man die, let all the multitude stone him without the camp.

36 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died, as the LORD commanded Moses.

And when they had brought him out, they stoned him, and he died as the Lord had commanded.

37 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

The Lord also said to Moses:

38 '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.

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt tell them I to make to themselves fringes in the corners of their garments, putting in them ribands of blue:

39 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;

That when they shall see them, they may remember all the commandments of the Lord, and not follow their own thoughts and eyes going astray after divers things,

40 that ye may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy unto your God.

But rather being mindful of the precepts of the Lord, may do them and be holy to their God.

41 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.'

I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God.
