23WhenH3588 you enterH935H413 the landH776 and plantH5193 anyH3605 kind of treeH6086 for foodH3978, you shall regardH6188 the fruitH6529 as forbiddenH6190.1 For threeH7969 yearsH8141 it will beH1961 forbiddenH6189 to you and must notH3808 be eatenH398. 24In the fourthH7243 yearH8141 allH3605 its fruitH6529 must beH1961 consecratedH6944 as a praise offeringH1974 to the LORDH3068. 25But in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 you may eatH398 its fruitH6529; thus your harvestH8393 will be increasedH3254. IH589 am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

28You must notH3808 make any cutsH8296H5414 in your bodiesH1320 for the deadH5315 or putH5414 tattooH7085H3808 marksH3793 on yourselves. IH589 am the LORDH3068.
29You must notH408 defileH2490 your daughterH1323 by making her a prostituteH2181, orH3808 the landH776 will be prostitutedH2181 and filledH4390H776 with depravityH2154.
You must keepH8104 My SabbathsH7676 and have reverence forH3372 My sanctuaryH4720. IH589 am the LORDH3068.
31You must notH408 turnH6437 toH413 mediumsH178 or spiritistsH3049; do not seek them outH1245H408, or you will be defiledH2930 by them. IH589 am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
32You are to riseH6965 in the presenceH6440 of the elderlyH7872, honorH1921H6440 the agedH2205, and fearH3372 your GodH430. IH589 am the LORDH3068.
33WhenH3588 a foreignerH1616 residesH1481 with youH854 in your landH776, you must notH3808 oppressH3238 himH853. 34You must treatH1961 the foreignerH1616 livingH1481 among youH854 as native-bornH249 and loveH157 him as yourselfH3644, forH3588 you wereH1961 foreignersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. IH589 am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

37You must keepH8104 allH3605 My statutesH2708 and allH3605 My ordinancesH4941 and followH6213 themH853. IH589 am the LORDH3068.”
