Leviticus 24
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Command the people of Israel to bring you pure oil beaten from olives to be used in the lamp, that the light may burn 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 curtain before the covenant decrees in the tent of meeting, Aaron must continually, from evening to morning, keep the lamp lit before Yahweh. This will be a permanent statute throughout your people's generations.
Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
4 The high priest must always keep the lamps lit before Yahweh, the lamps on the lampstand of pure gold.
He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before Jehovah continually.
5 You must take fine flour and bake twelve loaves with it. There must be two-tenths of an ephah in each loaf.
"You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve loaves of it: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one loaf.
6 Then you must set them in two rows, six in a row, on the table of pure gold before Yahweh.
You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before Jehovah.
7 You must put pure incense along each row of loaves as a representative offering. This incense will be burnt for 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 Jehovah.
8 Every Sabbath day the high priest must regularly set out the bread before Yahweh on behalf of the people of Israel, as a sign of an everlasting covenant.
Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before Jehovah continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel an everlasting covenant.
9 This offering will be for Aaron and his sons, and they are to eat it in a place that is holy, for it is a portion from the offerings to Yahweh made by fire.”
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 Jehovah made by fire by a perpetual statute."
10 Now it happened that the son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went among the people of Israel. This son of the Israelite woman fought against an Israelite man in the camp.
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 The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the name of Yahweh and cursed God, so the people brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, from 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 They held him in custody until Yahweh himself should declare his will to them.
They put him in custody, until the will of Jehovah should be declared to them.
13 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
14 “Take the man who has cursed God outside the camp. All who heard him must lay their hands on his head, and then the entire assembly must 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 You must explain to the people of Israel and say, 'Whoever curses his God must carry his own guilt.
You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16 He who blasphemes the name of Yahweh must surely be put to death. All the assembly must certainly stone him, whether he is a foreigner or a native-born Israelite. If anyone blasphemes the name of Yahweh, he must be put to death.
He who blasphemes the name of Jehovah, 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 If anyone strikes down another human being, he must certainly be put to death.
"'He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18 If anyone strikes down someone's animal, he must pay it back, life for life.
He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19 If anyone injures his neighbor, it must be done to him as he did to his neighbor:
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 has caused an injury to a person, so must it also be done to him.
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has injured someone, so shall it be done to him.
21 Anyone who kills an animal must pay it back, and anyone who kills a person must 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 You must have the same law for both the foreigner and the native-born Israelite, for I am Yahweh your God.'”
You shall have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born: for I am Jehovah your God.'"
23 So Moses spoke to the people of Israel, and the people brought the man outside the camp, the one who had cursed Yahweh. They stoned him with stones. The people of Israel carried out the command of Yahweh to 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 Jehovah commanded Moses.
