< Leviticus 24 >
1 et locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 praecipe filiis Israhel ut adferant tibi oleum de olivis purissimum ac lucidum ad concinnandas lucernas iugiter
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and dearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3 extra velum testimonii in tabernaculo foederis ponetque eas Aaron a vespere usque in mane coram Domino cultu rituque perpetuo in generationibus vestris
Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4 super candelabro mundissimo ponentur semper in conspectu Domini
They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
5 accipies quoque similam et coques ex ea duodecim panes qui singuli habebunt duas decimas
Thou shalt take also fine hour, and shalt bake twelve leaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf:
6 quorum senos altrinsecus super mensam purissimam coram Domino statues
And thou shalt set them six and six one against another upon the most clean table before the Lord:
7 et pones super eos tus lucidissimum ut sit panis in monumentum oblationis Domini
And thou shalt put upon them the dearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8 per singula sabbata mutabuntur coram Domino suscepti a filiis Israhel foedere sempiterno
Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord, being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant:
9 eruntque Aaron et filiorum eius ut comedant eos in loco sancto quia sanctum sanctorum est de sacrificiis Domini iure perpetuo
And they shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.
10 ecce autem egressus filius mulieris israhelitis quem pepererat de viro aegyptio inter filios Israhel iurgatus est in castris cum viro israhelite
And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel, and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
11 cumque blasphemasset nomen et maledixisset ei adductus est ad Mosen vocabatur autem mater eius Salumith filia Dabri de tribu Dan
And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was brought to Moses: (now his mother was called Salumith, the daughter of Dabri, of the tribe of Dan: )
12 miseruntque eum in carcerem donec nossent quid iuberet Dominus
And they put him into prison, till they might know what the Lord would command.
13 qui locutus est ad Mosen
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
14 dicens educ blasphemum extra castra et ponant omnes qui audierunt manus suas super caput eius et lapidet eum populus universus
Saying: Bring forth the blasphemer without the camp, and let them that heard him, put their hands upon his head, and let all the people stone him.
15 et ad filios Israhel loqueris homo qui maledixerit Deo suo portabit peccatum suum
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel: the man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin:
16 et qui blasphemaverit nomen Domini morte moriatur lapidibus opprimet eum omnis multitudo sive ille civis seu peregrinus fuerit qui blasphemaverit nomen Domini morte moriatur
And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die: all the multitude shall stone him, whether he be a native or a stranger. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die.
17 qui percusserit et occiderit hominem morte moriatur
He that striketh and killeth a man, dying let him die.
18 qui percusserit animal reddat vicarium id est animam pro anima
He that killeth a beast, shall make it good, that is to say, shall give beast for beast.
19 qui inrogaverit maculam cuilibet civium suorum sicut fecit fiet ei
He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 fracturam pro fractura oculum pro oculo dentem pro dente restituet qualem inflixerit maculam talem sustinere cogetur
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
21 qui percusserit iumentum reddet aliud qui percusserit hominem punietur
He that striketh a beast, shall render another. He that striketh a man shall be punished.
22 aequum iudicium sit inter vos sive peregrinus sive civis peccaverit quia ego sum Dominus Deus vester
Let there be equal judgment among you, whether he be a stranger, or a native that offends: because I am the Lord your God.
23 locutusque est Moses ad filios Israhel et eduxerunt eum qui blasphemaverat extra castra ac lapidibus oppresserunt feceruntque filii Israhel sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and they brought forth him that had blasphemed, without the camp, and they stoned him. And the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
