1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
Charge the children of Israel, and let them take for thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to burn a lamp continually,
3 Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
outside the veil in the tabernacle of witness; and Aaron and his sons shall burn it from evening until morning before the Lord continually, a perpetual statute throughout your generations.
4 He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the LORD continually.
Ye shall burn the lamps on the pure lamp-stand before the Lord till the morrow.
5 "You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve loaves of it: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one loaf.
And ye shall take fine flour, and make of it twelve loaves; each loaf shall be of two tenth parts.
6 You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
And ye shall put them [in] two rows, each row [containing] six loaves, on the pure table before the Lord.
7 You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the LORD.
And ye shall put on [each] row pure frankincense and salt; and [these things] shall be for loaves for a memorial, set forth before the Lord.
8 Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel an everlasting covenant.
On the sabbath-day they shall be set forth before the Lord continually before the children of Israel, for an everlasting covenant.
9 It shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute."
And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat them in the holy place: for this is their most holy portion of the offerings made to the Lord, a perpetual statute.
10 The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
And there went forth a son of an Israelitish woman, and he was son of an Egyptian man among the sons of Israel; and they fought in the camp, the son of the Israelitish woman, and a man who was an Israelite.
11 The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
And the son of the Israelitish woman named THE NAME and curse; and they brought him to Moses: and his mother's name was Salomith, daughter of Dabri of the tribe of Dan.
12 They put him in custody, until the will of the LORD should be declared to them.
And they put him in ward, to judge him by the command of the Lord.
13 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
14 "Bring out of the camp him who cursed; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
Bring forth him that cursed outside the camp, and all who heard shall lay their hands upon his head, and all the congregation shall stone him.
15 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
And speak to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whosoever shall curse God shall bear his sin.
16 He who blasphemes the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: the foreigner as well as the native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.
And he that names the name of the Lord, let him die the death: let all the congregation of Israel stone him with stones; whether he be a stranger or a native, let him die for naming the name of the Lord.
17 "'He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
And whosoever shall smite a man and he die, let him die the death.
18 He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
And whosoever shall smite a beast, and it shall die, let him render life for life.
19 If anyone injures his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
And whosoever shall inflict a blemish on his neighbour, as he has done to him, so shall it be done to himself in return;
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has injured someone, so shall it be done to him.
bruise for bruise, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as any one may inflict a blemish on a man, so shall it be rendered to him.
21 He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
Whosoever shall smite a man, and he shall die, let him die the death.
22 You shall have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born: for I am the LORD your God.'"
There shall be one judgment for the stranger and the native, for I [am] the Lord your God.
23 Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought forth him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones: and the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
