Leviticus 24
1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2CommandH6680 the children of IsraelH3478, that they bringH5927 unto thee pureH2134 oliveH2132 oilH8081 beaten for the lightH3974, to cause a lampH5216 to burn continuallyH8548. 3Without the veil of the testimonyH5715, in the tentH168 of meetingH4150, shall AaronH175 keep it in orderH2708 from eveningH6153 to morningH1242 before Jehovah continuallyH8548: it shall be a statuteH2708 for everH5769 throughout your generationsH1755. 4He shall keep in order the lampsH5216 upon the pureH2889 candlestick before Jehovah continuallyH8548.
5And thou shalt takeH3947 fineH5560 flourH5560, and bakeH644 twelve cakesH2471 thereof: twoH8147 tenthH6241 parts of an ephah shall beH1961 in oneH259 cakeH2471. 6And thou shalt setH7760 them in twoH8147 rowsH4635, sixH8337 on a rowH4635, upon the pureH2889 tableH7979 before Jehovah. 7And thou shalt putH5414 pureH2134 frankincenseH3828 upon each rowH4635, that it may beH1961 to the breadH3899 for a memorialH234, even an offeringH801 madeH5414 by fireH801 unto Jehovah. 8Every sabbathH7676 dayH3117 he shall set it in order before Jehovah continuallyH8548; it is on the behalf of the children of IsraelH3478, an everlasting covenantH1285. 9And it shall beH1961 for AaronH175 and his sonsH1121; and they shall eatH398 it in a holyH6944 placeH4725: for it is most holyH6944 unto him of the offeringsH801 of Jehovah made by fireH801 by a perpetual statuteH2706.
10And the sonH1121 of an Israelitish womanH802, whose father was an EgyptianH4713, wentH3318 out among the children of IsraelH3478; and the sonH1121 of the Israelitish womanH802 and a manH376 of IsraelH3478 strove together in the campH4264: 11and the sonH1121 of the Israelitish womanH802 blasphemed the NameH8034, and cursedH7043; and they broughtH935 him unto MosesH4872. And his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was ShelomithH8019, the daughterH1323 of Dibri, of the tribeH4294 of DanH1835. 12And they put him in ward, that it might be declared unto them at the mouthH6310 of Jehovah.
13And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 14BringH3318 forthH3318 him that hath cursedH7043 without the campH4264; and let all that heardH8085 him lay their handsH3027 upon his headH7218, and let all the congregationH5712 stoneH7275 him. 15And thou shalt speakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Whosoever curseth his GodH430 shall bearH5375 his sinH2399. 16And he that blasphemeth the nameH8034 of Jehovah, he shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191; all the congregationH5712 shall certainlyH4191 stoneH7275 him: as well the sojournerH1616, as the home-born, when he blasphemeth the nameH8034 of Jehovah, shall be putH4191 to deathH4191. 17And he that smiteth any manH376 mortally shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 18And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good, lifeH5315 for lifeH5315. 19And if a manH376 cause a blemishH3971 in his neighbor; as he hath done, soH3651 shall it be done to him: 20breach for breach, eyeH5869 for eyeH5869, toothH8127 for toothH8127; as he hath caused a blemishH3971 in a manH120, soH3651 shall it be rendered unto him. 21And he that killeth a beast shall make it good: and he that killeth a manH120 shall be putH4191 to deathH4191. 22Ye shall have oneH259 manner of law, as well for the sojournerH1616, as for the home-born: for I am Jehovah your GodH430. 23And MosesH4872 spake to the children of IsraelH3478; and they broughtH3318 forthH3318 him that had cursedH7043 out of the campH4264, and stonedH7275 him with stonesH68. And the children of IsraelH3478 did as Jehovah commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
