And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of
Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying, 3 What man
soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth
it out of the camp, 4 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer
an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that man; he
hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people: 5 To the end that the children of
Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto
the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for
peace offerings unto the LORD. 6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD
at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
7 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall
be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations. 8 And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever
man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt
offering or sacrifice, 9 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto
the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.
10 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you,
that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him
off from among his people. 11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon
the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for
the soul. 12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any
stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood. 13 And whatsoever man there be of the children of
Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be
eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. 14 For it is the life of all flesh;
the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood
of no manner of flesh; for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
15 And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether
it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in
water, and be unclean until the even: then shall he be clean. 16 But if he wash them not, nor bathe
his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and
say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy.
3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your
God.
4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.
5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer it at your own will. 6 It shall
be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be
burnt in the fire. 7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall not be
accepted. 8 Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned
the hallowed thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither
shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest. And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou
gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am
the LORD your God.
11 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I
am the LORD.
13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not
abide with thee all night until the morning.
14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I
am the LORD.
15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour
the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand
against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD.
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not
suffer sin upon him.
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow
thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment of mingled linen and woollen come upon thee.
20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband,
and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death,
because she was not free. 21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering. 22 And the priest shall make
an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done:
and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then
ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it
shall not be eaten of. 24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the LORD
withal. 25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the
increase thereof: I am the LORD your God.
26 Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. 28 Ye shall
not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.
29 Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land
become full of wickedness.
30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am
the LORD your God.
32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I
am the LORD.
33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him. 34 But the stranger that
dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were
strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure. 36 Just balances,
just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you
out of the land of Egypt. 37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them:
I am the LORD.
