Leviticus 24
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
And 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 thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause the lamps 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 the veil of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening to the morning before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations.
4 Upon the pure lampstand, shall he order the lamps, —before Yahweh, continually.
Ye shall order the lamps upon the pure 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.
And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenth parts shall be in one cake.
6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, —upon the pure table, before Yahweh.
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure 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.
And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on 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 he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by 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.
And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; and they shall eat it in the 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;
And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish 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;
And the Israelitish woman’s son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. And they brought him to Moses: (and 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.
And they put him in custody, that the mind of the LORD might be shown to them.
13 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
And 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 forth him that hath cursed outside the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon 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.
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whoever curseth 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.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, 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,
And he that killeth any man 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.
And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.
19 And, when, any man, inflicteth a blemish upon his neighbour, as he hath done, so, shall it be done to him:
And if a man shall cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath 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.
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, 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.
And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he 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.
Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: 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.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
