< Numbers 15 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke unto 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 unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye shall have come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto 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 ye will prepare a fire-offering unto the Lord, a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice, in performing a pronounced vow, or as a freewill-offering, or on your solemn feasts, to prepare a sweet savor unto the Lord, of the herds of the flocks:
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 shall he that bringeth his offering unto the Lord, bring as a meat-offering a tenth part of fine flour mingled with the fourth of a hin of oil.
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 wine for a drink-offering, the fourth of a hin, shalt thou prepare with the burnt-offering or sacrifice, for each one sheep.
6 or for a ram you prepare a present of two-tenth parts of flour mixed with a third of the hin of oil;
But for a ram, shalt thou prepare as a meat-offering two tenth parts of fine flour mingled with the third of a hin of oil.
7 and you bring a third part of the hin of wine near for a drink-offering—a refreshing fragrance to YHWH.
And wine for the drink-offering, the third of a hin, shalt thou bring, for a sweet savor unto the Lord.
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 when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt-offering, or for a sacrifice, in performing a pronounced vow, or a peace-offering unto 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 shall he bring with the bullock as a meat-offering, three tenth parts of fine flour mingled with half a hin of oil.
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 shalt thou bring for a drink-offering, half a hin, as a fire-offering of a sweet savor unto 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 shall it be done for each one bullock, or for each one ram, or for a lamb, be it of the sheep or of the goats.
12 According to the number that you prepare, so you do to each, according to their number;
According to the number that ye may prepare, so shall ye do to every one according to their number.
13 every native does thus with these, for bringing a fire-offering near of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
All that are born in the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering a fire-offering of a sweet savor unto 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 a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever may be among you in your generations, and will make an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord: as ye do, so shall he do.
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;
Congregation! one statute shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth: a statute for ever in 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.”
One law and one code shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
17 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke unto 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 unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land whither 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 shall it be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall set aside a heave-offering unto the Lord.
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.
As the first of your doughs shall ye set aside a cake for a heave-offering; like the heave-offering of the threshing-floor, so shall ye set this aside.
21 You give to YHWH from the first of your dough [as] a raised-offering throughout your generations.
Of the first of your doughs shall ye give unto the Lord a heave-offering, in your generations.
22 And when you err, and do not do all these commands which YHWH has spoken to Moses—
And if ye err, and do not observe all these commandments, which the Lord hath spoken unto 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—
All that the Lord hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the Lord commanded [the same] and thenceforward, among 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 shall it be, if, through inadvertence of the congregation, it was committed by ignorance, that all the congregation shall prepare one young bullock for a burnt-offering, for a sweet savor unto the Lord, with his meat-offering, and his drink-offering, according to the prescribed manner, and one he-goat 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 an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven unto them; for it is [a sin of] ignorance; and they have brought their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord, and their sin-offering before the Lord, for their [sin of] ignorance:
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 unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them; for by all the people [was it done] in ignorance.
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 any person sin through ignorance, then shall he bring a she-goat of the first year 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 an atonement for the person that hath erred, in his sinning through ignorance before the Lord; to make an atonement for him, that it may be forgiven unto 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.
For the native born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them: —one law shall be for you, for him that acteth through ignorance.
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;
But the person that doth aught with a high hand, be he one born in the land, or a stranger, the same dishonoreth the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from among 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.”
Because the word of the Lord hath he despised, and his commandment hath he broken; that person shall be cut off, his iniquity 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 while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks upon 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 that found him gathering sticks brought him for judgment unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
34 and they place him in confinement, for it [is] not explained what is [to be] done to him.
And they put him in ward; because it had not been declared what should be done 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 said unto Moses, The man shall be put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
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 to without the camp, and they stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
37 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
And the Lord said unto Moses, as followeth,
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 unto the children of Israel, and say to them, that they shall make themselves fringes on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they shall put upon the fringe of the corner a thread 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 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 seek not after [the inclination of] your own heart and [the delight of] your eyes, in pursuit of which ye have been led astray.
40 so that you remember and have done all My commands, and you have been holy to your God.
In order that ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and 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, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord your God.
