Leviticus 24
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
And Jehovah speaketh unto 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 sons of Israel, and they bring unto thee pure olive oil, beaten, for the lamp, to cause a light to go up 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.
at the outside of the vail of the testimony in the tent of meeting doth Aaron arrange it from evening till morning before Jehovah continually — a statute age-during to your generations;
4 The high priest must always keep the lamps lit before Yahweh, the lamps on the lampstand of pure gold.
by the pure candlestick he doth arrange the lights 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.
'And thou hast taken flour, and hast baked twelve cakes with it, two tenth deals are in the one cake,
6 Then you must set them in two rows, six in a row, on the table of pure gold before Yahweh.
and thou hast set them two ranks (six in the rank) on the pure 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.
and thou hast put on the rank pure frankincense, and it hath been to the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering 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.
'On each sabbath-day he arrangeth it before Jehovah continually, from the sons of Israel — a covenant age-during;
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.”
and it hath been to Aaron, and to his sons, and they have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] most holy to him, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah — a statute age-during.'
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.
And a son of an Israelitish woman goeth out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man), in the midst of the sons of Israel, and strive in the camp do the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel,
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.
and the son of the Israelitish woman execrateth the Name, and revileth; and they bring him in unto Moses; and his mother's name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
12 They held him in custody until Yahweh himself should declare his will to them.
and he causeth him to rest in charge — to explain to them by the mouth of Jehovah.
13 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
And Jehovah speaketh unto 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 the reviler unto the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the company have stoned him.
15 You must explain to the people of Israel and say, 'Whoever curses his God must carry his own guilt.
'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When any man revileth his God — then he hath borne 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.
and he who is execrating the name of Jehovah is certainly put to death; all the company do certainly cast stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, is put to death.
17 If anyone strikes down another human being, he must certainly be put to death.
'And when a man smiteth any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
18 If anyone strikes down someone's animal, he must pay it back, life for life.
'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, body for body.
19 If anyone injures his neighbor, it must be done to him as he did to his neighbor:
'And when a man putteth a blemish in his fellow, as he hath done so it is 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.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he putteth a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
21 Anyone who kills an animal must pay it back, and anyone who kills a person must be put to death.
'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, and he who smiteth [the life of] man is 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.'”
one judgment is to you; as a sojourner so is a native; 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.
And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones; and the sons of Israel have done as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
