1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Speak to the children of Israel and thou shalt say to them: When you shall be come into the land of your habitation, which I will give you,

2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you have come into the land of your habitations, which I give to you,

3 And shall make an offering to the Lord, for a holocaust, or a victim, paying your vows, or voluntarily offering gifts, or in your solemnities burning a sweet savour unto the Lord, of oxen or of sheep:

3 and will make an offering by fire to Yahweh—a burnt offering, or a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or as a free will offering, or in your set feasts, to make a pleasant aroma to Yahweh, of the herd, or of the flock—

4 Whosoever immolateth the victim, shall offer a sacrifice of fine flour, the tenth part of an ephi, tempered with the fourth part of a hin of oil:

4 then he who offers his offering shall offer to Yahweh a meal offering of one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one fourth of a hin of oil.

5 And he shall give the same measure of wine to pour out in libations for the holocaust or for the victim. For every lamb,

5 You shall prepare wine for the drink offering, one fourth of a hin, with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.

6 And for every ram there shall be a sacrifice of hour of two tenths, which shall be tempered with the third part of a hin of oil:

6 “‘For a ram, you shall prepare for a meal offering two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the third part of a hin of oil;

7 And he shall offer the third part of the same measure of wine for the libation, for a sweet savour to the Lord.

7 and for the drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin of wine, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

8 But when thou offerest a holocaust or sacrifice of oxen, to fulfill thy vow or for victims of peace offerings,

8 When you prepare a bull for a burnt offering or for a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or for peace offerings to Yahweh,

9 Thou shalt give for every ox three tenths of flour tempered with half a hin of oil,

9 then he shall offer with the bull a meal offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil;

10 And wine for libations of the same measure, for an offering of most sweet savour to the Lord.

10 and you shall offer for the drink offering half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

11 Thus shalt thou do:

11 Thus it shall be done for each bull, for each ram, for each of the male lambs, or of the young goats.

12 For every ox and ram and lamb and kid.

12 According to the number that you shall prepare, so you shall do to everyone according to their number.

13 Both they that are born in the land, and the strangers,

13 “‘All who are native-born shall do these things in this way, in offering an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

14 Shall offer sacrifices after the same rite.

14 If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you, or whoever may be among you throughout your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh, as you do, so he shall do.

15 There shall be all one law and judgment both for you and for them who are strangers in the land.

15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner, a statute forever throughout your generations. As you are, so the foreigner shall be before Yahweh.

16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

16 One law and one ordinance shall be for you and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner with you.’”

17 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them:

17 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

18 When you are come into the land which I will give you,

18 “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land where I bring you,

19 And shall eat of the bread of that country, you shall separate firstfruits to the Lord,

19 then it shall be that when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up a wave offering to Yahweh.

20 Of the things you eat. As you separate firstfruits of your barnfloors:

20 Of the first of your dough you shall offer up a cake for a wave offering. As the wave offering of the threshing floor, so you shall heave it.

21 So also shall you give firstfruits of your dough to the Lord.

21 Of the first of your dough, you shall give to Yahweh a wave offering throughout your generations.

22 And if through ignorance you omit any of these things, which the Lord hath spoken to Moses,

22 “‘When you err, and don’t observe all these commandments which Yahweh has spoken to Moses—

23 And by him hath commanded you, from the day that he began to command and thenceforward,

23 even all that Yahweh has commanded you by Moses, from the day that Yahweh gave commandment and onward throughout your generations—

24 And the multitude have forgotten to do it: they shall offer a calf out of the herd, a holocaust for a most sweet savour to the Lord, and the sacrifice and libations thereof, as the ceremonies require, and a buck goat for sin:

24 then it shall be, if it was done unwittingly, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bull for a burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh, with its meal offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for a sin offering.

25 And the priest shall pray for all the multitude of the children of Israel: and it shall be forgiven them, because they sinned ignorantly, offering notwithstanding a burnt offering to the Lord for themselves and for their sin and their ignorance:

25 The priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering made by fire to Yahweh, and their sin offering before Yahweh, for their error.

26 And it shall be forgiven all the people of the children of Israel: and the strangers that sojourn among them: because it is the fault of all the people through ignorance.

26 All the congregation of the children of Israel shall be forgiven, as well as the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them; for with regard to all the people, it was done unwittingly.

27 But if one soul shall sin ignorantly, he shall offer a she goat of a year old for his sin.

27 “‘If a person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.

28 And the priest shall pray for him, because he sinned ignorantly before the Lord: and he shall obtain his pardon, and it shall be forgiven him.

28 The priest shall make atonement for the soul who errs when he sins unwittingly before Yahweh. He shall make atonement for him; and he shall be forgiven.

29 The same law shall be for all that sin by ignorance, whether they be natives or strangers.

29 You shall have one law for him who does anything unwittingly, for him who is native-born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them.

30 But the soul that committeth any thing through pride, whether he be born in the land or a stranger (because he hath been rebellious against the Lord) shall be cut off from among his people:

30 “‘But the soul who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, blasphemes Yahweh. That soul shall be cut off from among his people.

31 For he hath contemned the word the Lord, and made void his precept: therefore shall he be destroyed, and shall bear his iniquity.

31 Because he has despised Yahweh’s word, and has broken his commandment, that soul shall be utterly cut off. His iniquity shall be on him.’”

32 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were in the wilderness, and had found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath day,

32 While the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.

33 That they brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole multitude.

33 Those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.

34 And they put him into prison, not knowing what they should do with him.

34 They put him in custody, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.

35 And the Lord said to Moses: Let that man die, let all the multitude stone him without the camp.

35 Yahweh said to Moses, “The man shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him with stones outside of the camp.”

36 And when they had brought him out, they stoned him, and he died as the Lord had commanded.

36 All the congregation brought him outside of the camp, and stoned him to death with stones, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

37 The Lord also said to Moses:

37 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

38 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt tell them I to make to themselves fringes in the corners of their garments, putting in them ribands of blue:

38 “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them that they should make themselves fringes on the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of each border a cord of blue.

39 That when they shall see them, they may remember all the commandments of the Lord, and not follow their own thoughts and eyes going astray after divers things,

39 It shall be to you for a fringe, that you may see it, and remember all Yahweh’s commandments, and do them; and that you don’t follow your own heart and your own eyes, after which you used to play the prostitute;

40 But rather being mindful of the precepts of the Lord, may do them and be holy to their God.

40 so that you may remember and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.

41 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God.

41 I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am Yahweh your God.”
