Leviticus 24
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Command the sons of Israel, That they bring unto thee—pure oil olive, beaten, for giving light, —to cause the lamp to burn up continually.
"Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
3 Outside the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron order it, from evening until morning, before Yahweh continually, —a statute age-abiding, to your generations.
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.
4 Upon the pure lampstand, shall he order the lamps, —before Yahweh, continually.
He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the LORD continually.
5 And thou shalt take fine meal, and bake it, in twelve cakes, —of two-tenths, shall each cake be.
"You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve loaves of it: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one loaf.
6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, —upon the pure table, before Yahweh.
You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
7 And thou shalt put upon each row pure frankincense, —so shall it belong unto the bread as a memorial, an altar-flame unto Yahweh.
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.
8 Sabbath day by sabbath day, shall he order it before Yahweh continually, —from the sons of Israel as an age-abiding covenant:
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.
9 so shall it be for Aaron and for his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place, —for most holy, shall it be unto him from among the altar-flames of Yahweh, a statute age-abiding.
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."
10 And forth went the son of a woman of Israel—he being the son of a man of Egypt—in the midst of the sons of Israel;
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.
11 and the son of the woman of Israel, and a man of Israel, reviled one another in the camp. And the son of the Israelitish woman uttered contemptuously the Name, and reviled. So they brought him in unto Moses, —now, the name of his mother, was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
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.
12 and they put him in ward, —that a clear answer might be given to them at the mouth of Yahweh.
They put him in custody, until the will of the LORD should be declared to them.
13 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14 Bring forth him that reviled unto the outside of the camp, then shall all that heard [him] lean their hands upon his head, —and all the assembly shall stone him.
"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.
15 And, unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak saying, —What man soever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16 And, he that contemptuously uttereth the name of Yahweh, shall be, surely put to death, all the assembly shall, surely stone, him, —as the sojourner so the home-born, when he contemptuously uttereth the Name, he shall be put to death.
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.
17 And, when, any man, by smiting taketh the life of any human being, he shall be surely put to death,
"'He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18 And he that by smiting taketh away the life of a beast, shall make it good, —life for life.
He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19 And, when, any man, inflicteth a blemish upon his neighbour, as he hath done, so, shall it be done to him:
If anyone injures his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, as he inflicteth a blemish upon a human being, so, shall one be inflicted upon him.
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has injured someone, so shall it be done to him.
21 And he that killeth a beast, shall make it good, -and he that killeth a human being, shall be put to death.
He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
22 One rule, shall ye have, as the sojourner, so the home-born, shall be, —For, I—Yahweh, am your God.
You shall have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born: for I am the LORD your God.'"
23 So then Moses spake unto the sons of Israel, and they took forth the reviler, unto the outside of the camp, and stoned him with stones. Thus, the sons of Israel did, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
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.
