1And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2SpeakH1696 unto allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, Ye shall be holyH6918: for I the LORDH3068 your GodH430 am holyH6918. 3Ye shall fearH3372 everyH376 manH376 his motherH517, and his fatherH1, and ye shall keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 4TurnH6437 ye notH3808 unto idolsH457, norH3808 makeH6213 to yourselves molten godsH430: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 5And when ye offerH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 unto the LORDH3068, ye shall offerH2076 it that ye may be acceptedH7522. 6It shall be eatenH398 the same dayH3117 ye offerH2077 it, and on the morrow: and if aught remainH3498 untilH5704 the thirdH7992 dayH3117, it shall be burntH8313 with fireH784. 7And ifH518 it be eatenH398 at allH3117 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, it is an abomination; it shall notH3808 be acceptedH7521: 8but every one that eateth it shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771, becauseH3588 he hath profanedH2490 the holyH6944 thingH6944 of the LORDH3068: and that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 offH3772 from his peopleH5971. 9And when ye reapH7114 the harvestH7105 of your landH776, thou shalt notH3808 wholly reapH7114 the cornersH6285 of thy fieldH7704, neitherH3808 shalt thou gatherH3950 the gleaningH3951 of thy harvestH7105. 10And thou shalt notH3808 gleanH3950 thy vineyardH3754, neitherH3808 shalt thou gatherH3950 the fallenH6528 fruitH6528 of thy vineyardH3754; thou shalt leaveH5800 them for the poorH6041 and for the strangerH1616: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 11Ye shall notH3808 stealH1589; neitherH3808 shall ye dealH8266 falselyH8266, norH3808 lieH8266 one to anotherH376. 12And ye shall notH3808 swearH7650 by my nameH8034 falselyH8267, soH3808 that thou profaneH2490 the nameH8034 of thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 13Thou shalt notH3808 oppressH6231 thy neighbour, norH3808 robH1497 him: the wagesH6468 of a hiredH7916 servantH7916 shall notH3808 abide with thee allH5704 night untilH5704 the morningH1242. 14Thou shalt notH3808 curseH7043 the deafH2795, norH3808 putH5414 a stumblingblock beforeH6440 the blindH5787, but thou shalt fearH3372 thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 15Ye shall doH6213 noH3808 unrighteousnessH5766 in judgmentH4941: thou shalt notH3808 respectH6440 the personH8199 of the poorH1800, norH3808 honour the personH8199 of the mightyH1419: but in righteousnessH6664 shalt thou judgeH8199 thy neighbour. 16Thou shalt notH3808 go upH5975 and downH5921 as a talebearerH7400 among thy peopleH5971: neitherH3808 shalt thou standH5975 againstH5921 the bloodH1818 of thy neighbour: I am the LORDH3068. 17Thou shalt notH3808 hateH8130 thy brotherH251 in thine heartH3824: thou shalt surelyH3198 rebukeH3198 thy neighbour, and notH3808 bearH5375 sinH2399 becauseH5921 of him. 18Thou shalt notH3808 takeH5358 vengeanceH5358, norH3808 bearH5201 anyH5201 grudgeH5201 againstH7453 the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, but thou shalt loveH157 thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORDH3068. 19Ye shall keepH8104 my statutesH2708. Thou shalt notH3808 letH3808 thy cattleH929 gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt notH3808 sowH2232 thy fieldH7704 with twoH3610 kindsH3610 of seedH2232: neitherH3808 shall there comeH5927 uponH5921 thee a garmentH899 of twoH3610 kindsH3610 of stuff mingled togetherH5921. 20And whosoever lieth carnally with a womanH802, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husbandH376, and notH3808 at allH376 redeemedH6299, norH3808 freedomH2668 givenH5414 herH802; they shall be punished; they shall notH3808 be putH5414 to deathH4191, becauseH3588 sheH1931 was notH3808 freeH2666. 21And he shall bringH935 his guiltH817 offering unto the LORDH3068, unto the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150, evenH853 a ramH352 for a guiltH817 offering. 22And the priestH3548 shall make atonementH3722 for him with the ramH352 of the guiltH817 offering beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 for his sinH2398 whichH834 he hath sinnedH2398: and he shall be forgivenH5545 for his sinH2398 whichH834 he hath sinnedH2398. 23And when ye shall comeH935 intoH413 the landH776, and shall have plantedH5193 allH3605 manner of treesH6086 for foodH3978, then ye shall countH8141 the fruitH6529 thereof as their uncircumcision: threeH7969 yearsH8141 shall they be as uncircumcisedH6189 unto youH3588; it shall notH3808 be eatenH398. 24But in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 allH3605 the fruitH6529 thereof shall be holyH6944, for giving praiseH1974 unto the LORDH3068. 25And in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 shall ye eatH398 of the fruitH6529 thereof, that it may yieldH8393 unto youH853 the increaseH3254 thereof: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 26Ye shall notH3808 eatH398 anyH398 thing with the bloodH1818: neitherH3808 shall ye useH398 enchantmentsH5172, norH3808 practise augury. 27Ye shall notH3808 roundH5362 the cornersH6285 of your headsH7218, neitherH3808 shalt thou mar the cornersH6285 of thy beardH2206. 28Ye shall notH3808 makeH5414 anyH5414 cuttings in your fleshH1320 for the deadH5315, norH3808 print anyH5414 marksH3793 upon youH5414: I am the LORDH3068. 29ProfaneH2490 notH3808 thy daughterH1323, to make herH4390 a harlotH2181; lest the landH776 fallH2181 to whoredom, and the landH776 becomeH4390 fullH4390 of wickednessH2154. 30Ye shall keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676, and reverence my sanctuaryH4720: I am the LORDH3068. 31TurnH6437 ye notH408 unto them that have familiar spirits, norH408 unto the wizards; seekH1245 them notH408 outH413, to be defiledH2930 by them: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 32Thou shalt riseH6965 upH6965 beforeH6440 the hoary headH6440, and honour the faceH6440 of the oldH2205 manH2205, and thou shalt fearH3372 thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 33And ifH3588 a strangerH1616 sojourn with thee in your landH776, ye shall notH3808 doH3238 him wrongH3238. 34The strangerH1616 that sojourneth with youH3588 shall be unto youH3588 as the homeborn among youH3588, and thou shalt loveH157 him as thyself; for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 35Ye shall doH6213 noH3808 unrighteousnessH5766 in judgmentH4941, in meteyard, in weightH4948, or in measureH4884. 36JustH834 balancesH3976, justH834 weightsH68, a justH834 ephahH374, and a justH834 hinH1969, shall ye have: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430, whichH834 broughtH3318 youH834 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 37And ye shall observeH8104 allH3605 my statutesH2708, and allH3605 my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 them: I am the LORDH3068.
