Every sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually; it is from the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant.

And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying: Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16 But he that pronounced the name of the Lord [with blasphemy] shall be put to death, all the congregation shall stone him; be he a stranger, or be he one that is born in the land, when he pronounceth the [holy] Name [with blasphemy, ] he shall be put to death.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him; as well the stranger, as the home-born, when he blasphemeth the Name, shall be put to death.
17 And he that taketh the life of any man shall surely be put to death.

And if a man maim his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: in the manner as he hath caused a bodily defect in a man, so shall it be done to him.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath maimed a man, so shall it be rendered unto him.
21 And he that killeth a beast, shall make restitution for it; and he that killeth a man, shall be put to death.
And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; and he that killeth a man shall be put to death.
22 One manner of judicial law shall ye have, the stranger shall be equal with one of your own country; for I am the Lord your God.
Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for the home-born; for I am the LORD your God.'
