ויקרא 24

1 וַיְדַבֵּר יְהֹוָה אֶל־מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹֽר׃

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 צַו אֶת־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיִקְחוּ אֵלֶיךָ שֶׁמֶן זַיִת זָךְ כָּתִית לַמָּאוֹר לְהַעֲלֹת נֵר תָּמִֽיד׃

Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may bring to you clear oil from the purest olives, in order to supply the lamps continuously

3 מִחוּץ לְפָרֹכֶת הָעֵדֻת בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד יַעֲרֹךְ אֹתוֹ אַהֲרֹן מֵעֶרֶב עַד־בֹּקֶר לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה תָּמִיד חֻקַּת עוֹלָם לְדֹרֹֽתֵיכֶֽם׃

outside the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall place these, from evening until morning, before the Lord, as a perpetual worship and ritual in your generations.

4 עַל הַמְּנֹרָה הַטְּהֹרָה יַעֲרֹךְ אֶת־הַנֵּרוֹת לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה תָּמִֽיד׃

They shall be placed upon the most pure candlestick in the sight of the Lord always.

5 וְלָקַחְתָּ סֹלֶת וְאָפִיתָ אֹתָהּ שְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה חַלּוֹת שְׁנֵי עֶשְׂרֹנִים יִהְיֶה הַֽחַלָּה הָאֶחָֽת׃

You shall also receive fine wheat flour, and you shall bake twelve loaves from it, each loaf of which shall have two-tenths.

6 וְשַׂמְתָּ אוֹתָם שְׁתַּיִם מַֽעֲרָכוֹת שֵׁשׁ הַֽמַּעֲרָכֶת עַל הַשֻּׁלְחָן הַטָּהֹר לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָֽה׃

And you shall arrange them, six on each side, upon the most pure table before the Lord.

7 וְנָתַתָּ עַל־הַֽמַּעֲרֶכֶת לְבֹנָה זַכָּה וְהָיְתָה לַלֶּחֶם לְאַזְכָּרָה אִשֶּׁה לַֽיהֹוָֽה׃

And you shall place upon them the clearest frankincense, so that the bread may be a memorial of oblation for the Lord.

8 בְּיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת בְּיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת יַֽעַרְכֶנּוּ לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה תָּמִיד מֵאֵת בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּרִית עוֹלָֽם׃

On each Sabbath, they shall be changed before the Lord, having been received from the sons of Israel as an everlasting covenant.

9 וְהָֽיְתָה לְאַהֲרֹן וּלְבָנָיו וַאֲכָלֻהוּ בְּמָקוֹם קָדֹשׁ כִּי קֹדֶשׁ קׇֽדָשִׁים הוּא לוֹ מֵאִשֵּׁי יְהֹוָה חׇק־עוֹלָֽם׃

And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, so that they may eat these in the holy place; for it is the Holy of holies from the sacrifices of the Lord, as a perpetual right.

10 וַיֵּצֵא בֶּן־אִשָּׁה יִשְׂרְאֵלִית וְהוּא בֶּן־אִישׁ מִצְרִי בְּתוֹךְ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּנָּצוּ בַּֽמַּחֲנֶה בֶּן הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִית וְאִישׁ הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִֽי׃

Then, behold, the son of an Israelite woman, whom she had born of an Egyptian man among the sons of Israel, going out, was quarreling in the camp with a man of Israel.

11 וַיִּקֹּב בֶּן־הָֽאִשָּׁה הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִית אֶת־הַשֵּׁם וַיְקַלֵּל וַיָּבִיאוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל־מֹשֶׁה וְשֵׁם אִמּוֹ שְׁלֹמִית בַּת־דִּבְרִי לְמַטֵּה־דָֽן׃

And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was led to Moses. (Now his mother was called Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri from the tribe of Dan.)

12 וַיַּנִּיחֻהוּ בַּמִּשְׁמָר לִפְרֹשׁ לָהֶם עַל־פִּי יְהֹוָֽה׃

And they sent him to prison, until they might know what the Lord would command,

13 וַיְדַבֵּר יְהֹוָה אֶל־מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹֽר׃

who spoke to Moses,

14 הוֹצֵא אֶת־הַֽמְקַלֵּל אֶל־מִחוּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶה וְסָמְכוּ כׇֽל־הַשֹּׁמְעִים אֶת־יְדֵיהֶם עַל־רֹאשׁוֹ וְרָגְמוּ אֹתוֹ כׇּל־הָעֵדָֽה׃

saying: Lead away the blasphemer beyond the camp, and let all who heard him place their hands upon his head, and let the entire people stone him.

15 וְאֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל תְּדַבֵּר לֵאמֹר אִישׁ אִישׁ כִּֽי־יְקַלֵּל אֱלֹהָיו וְנָשָׂא חֶטְאֽוֹ׃

And you shall say to the sons of Israel: The man who curses his God shall bear his sin,

16 וְנֹקֵב שֵׁם־יְהֹוָה מוֹת יוּמָת רָגוֹם יִרְגְּמוּ־בוֹ כׇּל־הָעֵדָה כַּגֵּר כָּֽאֶזְרָח בְּנׇקְבוֹ־שֵׁם יוּמָֽת׃

and whoever will have blasphemed the name of the Lord shall be put to death. The entire multitude shall overwhelm him with stones, whether he be a citizen or a sojourner. Whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall be put to death.

17 וְאִישׁ כִּי יַכֶּה כׇּל־נֶפֶשׁ אָדָם מוֹת יוּמָֽת׃

Whoever will have struck and killed a man shall be put to death.

18 וּמַכֵּה נֶֽפֶשׁ־בְּהֵמָה יְשַׁלְּמֶנָּה נֶפֶשׁ תַּחַת נָֽפֶשׁ׃

Whoever will have struck down an animal shall repay its equivalent, that is, a life for a life.

19 וְאִישׁ כִּֽי־יִתֵּן מוּם בַּעֲמִיתוֹ כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה כֵּן יֵעָשֶׂה לּֽוֹ׃

Whoever will have inflicted a blemish on any of his citizens, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him:

20 שֶׁבֶר תַּחַת שֶׁבֶר עַיִן תַּחַת עַיִן שֵׁן תַּחַת שֵׁן כַּאֲשֶׁר יִתֵּן מוּם בָּֽאָדָם כֵּן יִנָּתֶן בּֽוֹ׃

fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he repay. Whatever degree of blemish he has inflicted, so shall he be compelled to suffer.

21 וּמַכֵּה בְהֵמָה יְשַׁלְּמֶנָּה וּמַכֵּה אָדָם יוּמָֽת׃

Whoever strikes down a beast, shall repay another. Whoever strikes a man shall be punished.

22 מִשְׁפַּט אֶחָד יִהְיֶה לָכֶם כַּגֵּר כָּאֶזְרָח יִהְיֶה כִּי אֲנִי יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃

Let there be equal judgment among you, whether it is a sojourner or a citizen who will have sinned. For I am the Lord your God.

23 וַיְדַבֵּר מֹשֶׁה אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיּוֹצִיאוּ אֶת־הַֽמְקַלֵּל אֶל־מִחוּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶה וַיִּרְגְּמוּ אֹתוֹ אָבֶן וּבְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל עָשׂוּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהֹוָה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃

And Moses spoke to the sons of Israel. And they led away him who had blasphemed, beyond the camp, and they overwhelmed him with stones. And the sons of Israel did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
