< Numbers 15 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you come into the land of your dwellings, which I am giving to you,
Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, When ye are come into the land of your habitation, which I give to you,
3 then you have prepared a fire-offering to YHWH, a burnt-offering or a sacrifice, for separating a vow or free-will offering, or in your appointed things, to make a refreshing fragrance to YHWH, out of the herd or out of the flock.
and thou wilt offer whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord, a whole-burnt-offering or a meat-offering to perform a vow, or a free-will offering, or to offer in your feasts a sacrifice of sweet savour to the Lord, whether of the herd or the flock:
4 And he who is bringing his offering near to YHWH has brought a present near of a tenth part of flour mixed with a fourth of the hin of oil;
then he that offers his gift to the Lord shall bring a meat-offering of fine flour, a tenth part of an ephah mingled with oil, even with the fourth part of a hin.
5 and you prepare a fourth of the hin of wine for a drink-offering, with the burnt-offering or for the sacrifice, for one lamb;
And for a drink-offering ye shall offer the fourth part of a hin on the whole-burnt-offering, or on the meat-offering: for every lamb thou shalt offer so much, as a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
6 or for a ram you prepare a present of two-tenth parts of flour mixed with a third of the hin of oil;
And for a ram, when ye offer it as a whole-burnt-offering or as a sacrifice, thou shalt prepare as a meat-offering two tenths of fine flour mingled with oil, the third part of a hin.
7 and you bring a third part of the hin of wine near for a drink-offering—a refreshing fragrance to YHWH.
And ye shall offer for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord wine for a drink-offering, the third part of a hin.
8 And when you make a son of the herd a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice for separating a vow, or peace-offerings to YHWH,
And if ye sacrifice [a bullock] from the herd for a whole-burnt-offering or for a sacrifice, to perform a vow or a peace-offering to the Lord,
9 then he has brought near for the son of the herd a present of three-tenth parts of flour mixed with a half of the hin of oil;
then [the worshipper] shall offer upon the calf a meat-offering, three tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, [even] the half of a hin.
10 and you bring a half of the hin of wine near for a drink-offering, [for] a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
And wine for a drink-offering the half of a hin, a sacrifice for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
11 thus it is done for one ox, or for one ram, or for a lamb of the sheep or of the goats.
Thus shalt thou do to one calf or to one ram, or to one lamb of the sheep or kid of the goats.
12 According to the number that you prepare, so you do to each, according to their number;
According to the number of what ye shall offer, so shall ye do to each one, according to their number.
13 every native does thus with these, for bringing a fire-offering near of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
Every native of the country shall do thus to offer such things as sacrifices for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
14 and when a sojourner sojourns with you, or whoever [is] in your midst throughout your generations, and he has made a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH, as you do so he does.
And if there should be a stranger among you in your land, or one who should be born to you among your generations, and he will offer a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lord—as ye do, so the [whole] congregation shall offer to the Lord.
15 One statute is for you of the congregation and for the sojourner who is sojourning, a continuous statute throughout your generations: as you [are] so is the sojourner before YHWH;
There shall be one law for you and for the strangers abiding among you, a perpetual law for your generations: as ye [are], so shall the stranger be before the Lord.
16 one law and one ordinance is for you and for the sojourner who is sojourning with you.”
There shall be one law and one ordinance for you, and for the stranger that abides among you.
17 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
18 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: In your coming into the land to where I am bringing you in,
Speak to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, When ye are entering into the land, into which I bring you,
19 then it has been, in your eating of the bread of the land, you raise up a raised-offering to YHWH;
then it shall come to pass, when ye shall eat of the bread of the land, ye shall separate a wave-offering, a special offering to the Lord, the first-fruits of your dough.
20 you raise up a cake of the first of your dough [as] a raised-offering; as the raised-offering of a threshing-floor, so you raise it up.
Ye shall offer your bread a heave-offering: as a heave-offering from the threshing-floor, so shall ye separate it,
21 You give to YHWH from the first of your dough [as] a raised-offering throughout your generations.
even the first-fruits of your dough, and ye shall give the Lord a heave-offering throughout your generations.
22 And when you err, and do not do all these commands which YHWH has spoken to Moses—
But whensoever ye shall transgress, and not perform all these commands, which the Lord spoke to Moses;
23 the whole that YHWH has charged on you by the hand of Moses, from the day that YHWH has commanded and from now on, throughout your generations—
as the Lord appointed you by the hand of Moses, from the day which the Lord appointed you and forward throughout your generations,
24 then it has been, if from the eyes of the congregation it has been done through ignorance, that all the congregation has prepared one bullock, a son of the herd, for a burnt-offering, for refreshing fragrance to YHWH, and its present, and its drink-offering, according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.
then it shall come to pass, if a trespass be committed unwillingly, unknown to the congregation, then shall all the congregation offer a calf of the herd without blemish for a whole-burnt-offering of sweet savour to the Lord, and its meat-offering and its drink-offering according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.
25 And the priest has made atonement for all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and it has been forgiven them, for it [is] ignorance, and they have brought in their offering, a fire-offering to YHWH, and their sin-offering before YHWH for their ignorance;
And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and [the trespass] shall be forgiven them, because it is involuntary; and they have brought their gift, a burnt-offering to the Lord for their trespass before the Lord, even for their involuntary sins.
26 and it has been forgiven to all the congregation of the sons of Israel and to the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst, for that all the people [did it] through ignorance.
And it shall be forgiven as respects all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that is abiding among you, because [it is] involuntary to all the people.
27 And if one person sins through ignorance, then he has brought a female goat near, daughter of a year, for a sin-offering;
And if one soul sin unwillingly, he shall bring one she-goat of a year old for a sin-offering.
28 and the priest has made atonement for the person who is erring, in his sinning through ignorance before YHWH, by making atonement for him, and it has been forgiven him;
And the priest shall make atonement for the soul that committed the trespass unwillingly, and that sinned unwillingly before the Lord, to make atonement for him.
29 one law is for yourselves—for the native among the sons of Israel and for the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst—for him who is doing [anything] through ignorance.
There shall be one law for the native among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that abides among them, whosoever shall commit a trespass unwillingly.
30 And the person who does [evil] with a high hand—of the native or of the sojourner—he is reviling YHWH, and that person has been cut off from the midst of his people;
And whatever soul either of the natives or of the strangers shall do any thing with a presumptuous hand, he will provoke God; that soul shall be cut off from his people,
31 because he despised the word of YHWH and has broken His command, that person is certainly cut off; his iniquity [is] on him.”
for he has set at nought the word of the Lord and broken his commands: that soul shall be utterly destroyed, his sin [is] upon him.
32 And the sons of Israel are in the wilderness, and they find a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day,
And the children of Israel were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath-day.
33 and those finding him gathering wood bring him near to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation,
And they who found him gathering sticks on the sabbath-day brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel.
34 and they place him in confinement, for it [is] not explained what is [to be] done to him.
And they placed him in custody, for they did not determine what they should do to him.
35 And YHWH says to Moses, “The man is certainly put to death [by] all the congregation stoning him with stones at the outside of the camp.”
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Let the man be by all means put to death: [do ye] all the congregation, stone him with stones.
36 And all the congregation brings him out to the outside of the camp and stone him with stones, and he dies, as YHWH has commanded Moses.
And all the congregation brought him forth out of the camp; and all the congregation stoned him with stones outside the camp, as the Lord commanded Moses.
37 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
38 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have commanded to them, and they have made fringes on the skirts of their garments for themselves, throughout their generations, and they have put a ribbon of blue on the fringe of the skirt,
Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt tell them; and let them make for themselves fringes upon the borders of their garments throughout their generations: and ye shall put upon the fringes of the borders a lace of blue.
39 and it has been to you for a fringe, and you have seen it, and have remembered all the commands of YHWH, and have done them, and you do not search after your heart and after your eyes, after which you are going whoring,
And it shall be on your fringes, and ye shall look on them, and ye shall remember all the commands of the Lord, and do them: and ye shall not turn back after your imaginations, and after [the sight of your] eyes in the things after which ye go a whoring;
40 so that you remember and have done all My commands, and you have been holy to your God.
that ye may remember and perform all my commands, and ye shall be holy unto your God.
41 I [am] your God YHWH, who has brought you out from the land of Egypt to become your God; I [am] your God YHWH.”
I [am] the Lord your God that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I [am] the Lord your God.
