Leviticus 19:21-37

21And he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering. 22And 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. 23And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count its fruit as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised to you: it shall not be eaten of. 24But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy to praise the LORD with .1 25And in the fifth year shall ye eat of its fruit, that it may yield to you its increase: I am the LORD your God. 26Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times. 27Ye shall not shave around the sides of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. 28Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks upon you: I am the LORD. 29Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be an harlot; lest the land should fall to harlotry, and the land become full of wickedness.2

30Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD. 31Regard not them that have mediums, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. 32Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the LORD. 33And if a stranger shall sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not oppress him.3 34But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be to 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. 35Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in length, in weight, or in volume. 36Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.4 37Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the LORD.
