Leviticus 19
1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
The Lord spak to Moises, and seide,
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I the Eternal your God am holy.
Speke thou to al the cumpenye of the sones of Israel, and thou schalt seie to hem, Be ye hooli, for Y am hooli, youre Lord God.
3 Ye shall fear, every man, his mother and his father, and my sabbaths shall ye keep: I am the Lord your God.
Ech man drede his fadir and his modir. Kepe ye my sabatis; Y am youre Lord God.
4 Ye shall not turn unto the idols, and molten gods shall ye not make to yourselves: I am the Lord your God.
Nyle ye be turned to ydols, nether ye schulen make to you yotun goddis; Y am youre Lord God.
5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offering unto the Lord, ye shall offer it so that it may be favorably received from you.
If ye offren a sacrifice of pesible thingis to the Lord, that it be quemeful,
6 On the same day ye offer it shall it be eaten, and on the morrow: and whatever is left until the third day, shall be burnt with fire.
ye schulen ete it in that day, in which it is offrid, and in the tother dai; sotheli what euer thing is residue in to the thridde dai, ye schulen brenne in fier.
7 And if the intention was that it should be eaten on the third day, it is an abomination, it shall not be favorably received.
If ony man etith therof aftir twei daes, he schal be vnhooli, and gilti of vnfeithfulnes `ether wickidnesse; and he schal bere his wickidnesse,
8 And whoever eateth it shall bear his iniquity; because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the Lord: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
for he defoulide the hooli thing of the Lord, and his soule schal perische fro his puple.
9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather up the gleanings of thy harvest.
Whanne thou schalt repe the fruytis of thi lond, thou schalt not kitte `til to the ground the corn of the lond, nether thou schalt gadere the eeris of corn that ben left;
10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, and the single grapes that drop in thy vineyard shalt thou not gather up; for the poor and the stranger shalt thou leave them: I am the Lord your God.
nethir in thi vyner thou schalt gadere reysyns and greynes fallynge doun, but thou schalt leeue to be gaderid of pore men and pilgryms; Y am youre Lord God.
11 Ye shall not steal; neither shall ye deny [another's property in your hands], nor lie one to another.
Ye schulen not do thefte. Ye schulen not lye, and no man disseyue his neiybour.
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and thou shalt not thus profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
Thou schalt not forswere in my name, nethir thou schalt defoule the name of thi God; Y am the Lord.
13 Thou shalt not withhold any thing from thy neighbor, nor rob him: there shall not abide with thee the wages of him that is hired, through the night until morning.

14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling-block before the blind; but thou shalt be afraid of thy God: I am the Lord.
Thou schalt not curse a deef man, nether thou schalt sette an hurtyng bifor a blynd man; but thou schalt drede thi Lord God, for Y am the Lord.
15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the great; in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor.
Thou schalt not do that, that is wickid, nether thou schalt deme vniustli; biholde thou not the persoone of a pore man, nethir onoure thou the face of a myyti man; deme thou iustli to thi neiybore.
16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people; thou shalt not stand [idly] by the blood of thy neighbor: I am the Lord.
Thou schalt not be a sclaunderere, nether a priuey bacbitere in the puplis; thou schalt not stonde ayens the blood of thi neiybore; Y am the Lord.
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt indeed rebuke thy neighbor, and not bear sin on account of him.
Thou schalt not hate thi brothir in thin herte, but repreue hym opynly, lest thou haue synne on hym.
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am the Lord.
Thou schalt not seke veniaunce, nether thou schalt be myndeful of the wrong of thi cyteseyns; thou schalt loue thi freend as thi silf; Y am the Lord.
19 My statutes shall ye keep; thy cattle shalt thou not let gender with a diverse kind; thy field shalt thou not sow with mingled seeds; and a garment of mingled kinds, of linen and woollen, shall not come upon thee.
Kepe ye my lawis. Thou schalt not make thi beestis to gendre with the lyuynge beestis of another kynde. Thou schalt not sowe the feeld with dyuerse sede. Thou schalt not be clothid in a cloth, which is wouun of twei thingis.
20 And if a man lie carnally with a woman, that is a bond-maid, betrothed to a man, but who hath neither been redeemed, nor hath her freedom been given her: there shall a scourging be decreed; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.

21 And he shall bring his trespass-offering unto the Lord, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: a ram for a trespass-offering.
Sotheli the man for his trespas schal offre a ram to the Lord, at the dore of the tabernacle of witnessyng;
22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering before the Lord for his sin which he hath done; and he shall be forgiven for his sin which he hath committed.
and the preest schal preye for hym, and for his trespas, bifor the Lord; and the Lord schal be merciful to hym, and the synne schal be foryouun.
23 And when ye come into the land, and plant any kind of tree bearing edible fruit, then shall ye count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you, it shall not be eaten.

24 But in the fourth year shall all its fruit be holy for praise-giving unto the Lord.
Forsothe in the fourthe yeer al the fruyt of tho trees schal be `halewid preiseful to the Lord;
25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of its fruit, in order that it may increase unto you its productiveness: I am the Lord your God.

27 Ye shall not cut round the corners [of the hair] of your head, neither shalt thou destroy the corners of thy beard.
nether ye schulen clippe the heer in round, nether ye schulen schaue the beerd;
28 And for the dead shall ye not make any incision in your flesh; and any etched-in writing shall you not fix on yourselves: I am the Lord.
and on deed men ye schulen not kitte youre fleischis, nether ye schulen make to you ony fyguris, ether markis in youre fleisch; Y am the Lord.
29 Do not profane thy daughter, to cause her to be a prostitute; lest the land fall to prostitution, and the land become full of incest.

30 My sabbaths shall ye keep, and my sanctuary shall ye reverence: I am the Lord.
Kepe ye my sabatis, and drede ye my seyntuarie; Y `am the Lord.

33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee, in your land, ye shall not vex him.
If a comelyng enhabitith in youre lond, and dwellith among you, dispise ye not hym,
34 As one born in the land among you, shall be unto you the stranger that sojourneth with you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
but be he among you as a man borun in the lond; and ye schulen loue hym as you silf, for also ye weren comelyngis in the lond of Egipt; Y am youre Lord God.
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.
Nyle ye do ony wickid thing in doom, in reule, in weiyte, and in mesure; the balance be iust,
