< Leviticus 24 >
1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And Yahweh spake unto 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.
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.
3 Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
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.
4 He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before the LORD continually.
Upon the pure lampstand, shall he order the lamps, —before Yahweh, continually.
5 “You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenths of an ephah shall be in one cake.
And thou shalt take fine meal, and bake it, in twelve cakes, —of two-tenths, shall each cake be.
6 You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, —upon the pure table, before Yahweh.
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 thou shalt put upon each row pure frankincense, —so shall it belong unto the bread as a memorial, an altar-flame unto Yahweh.
8 Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is an everlasting covenant on the behalf of the children of Israel.
Sabbath day by sabbath day, shall he order it before Yahweh continually, —from the sons of Israel as an age-abiding covenant:
9 It shall be for Aaron and his sons. 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.”
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.
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 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;
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 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;
12 They put him in custody until the LORD’s will should be declared to them.
and they put him in ward, —that a clear answer might be given to them at the mouth of Yahweh.
13 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
14 “Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
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.
15 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
And, unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak saying, —What man soever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16 He who blasphemes the LORD’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.
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.
17 “‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
And, when, any man, by smiting taketh the life of any human being, he shall be surely put to death,
18 He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
And he that by smiting taketh away the life of a beast, shall make it good, —life for life.
19 If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:
And, when, any man, inflicteth a blemish upon his neighbour, as he hath done, so, shall it be done to him:
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
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.
21 He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
And he that killeth a beast, shall make it good, -and he that killeth a human being, shall be put to 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.’”
One rule, shall ye have, as the sojourner, so the home-born, shall be, —For, I—Yahweh, am your God.
23 Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
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.
