Leviticus 19
1And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2SpeakH1696 to all the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 to them, Ye shall be holyH6918: for I the LORDH3068 your GodH430 am holyH6918. 3Ye shall fearH3372 every manH376 his motherH517, and his fatherH1, and keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 4TurnH6437 ye not to idolsH457, nor makeH6213 to yourselves moltenH4541 godsH430: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 5And if ye offerH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002 to the LORDH3068, ye shall offerH2076 it at your own willH7522. 6It shall be eatenH398 the same dayH3117 ye offerH2077 it, and on the next dayH4283: and if any thing shall remainH3498 until the thirdH7992 dayH3117, it shall be burntH8313 in the fireH784. 7And if it shall be eatenH398 at allH398 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, it is abominableH6292; it shall not be acceptedH7521. 8Therefore every one that eatethH398 it shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771, because he hath profanedH2490 the hallowed thingH6944 of the LORDH3068: and that soulH5315 shall be cut offH3772 from among his peopleH5971. 9And when ye reapH7114 the harvestH7105 of your landH776, thou shalt not wholly reapH3615 the cornersH6285 of thy fieldH7704, neither shalt thou gatherH3950 the gleaningsH3951 of thy harvestH7105. 10And thou shalt not gleanH5953 thy vineyardH3754, neither shalt thou gatherH3950 every grapeH6528 of thy vineyardH3754; thou shalt leaveH5800 them for the poorH6041 and strangerH1616: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
11Ye shall not stealH1589, neither deal falselyH3584, neither lieH8266 oneH376 to anotherH5997. 12And ye shall not swearH7650 by my nameH8034 falselyH8267, neither shalt thou profaneH2490 the nameH8034 of thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 13Thou shalt not defraudH6231 thy neighbourH7453, neither robH1497 him : the wagesH6468 of him that is hiredH7916 shall not abideH3885 with thee all night until the morningH1242. 14Thou shalt not curseH7043 the deafH2795, nor putH5414 a stumblingblockH4383 beforeH6440 the blindH5787, but shalt fearH3372 thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 15Ye shall doH6213 no unrighteousnessH5766 in judgmentH4941: thou shalt not respectH5375 the personH6440 of the poorH1800, nor honourH1921 the personH6440 of the mightyH1419: but in righteousnessH6664 shalt thou judgeH8199 thy neighbourH5997. 16Thou shalt not goH3212 up and down as a talebearerH7400 among thy peopleH5971: neither shalt thou standH5975 against the bloodH1818 of thy neighbourH7453: I am the LORDH3068. 17Thou shalt not hateH8130 thy brotherH251 in thy heartH3824: thou shalt surelyH3198 rebukeH3198 thy neighbourH5997, and not allowH5375 sinH2399 upon him.1 18Thou shalt not avengeH5358, nor bear any grudgeH5201 against the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, but thou shalt loveH157 thy neighbourH7453 as thyselfH3644: I am the LORDH3068.
19Ye shall keepH8104 my statutesH2708. Thou shalt not let thy cattleH929 breedH7250 with another kindH3610: thou shalt not sowH2232 thy fieldH7704 with mixed seedH3610: neither shall a garmentH899 of linen and woollenH8162 woven togetherH3610 comeH5927 upon thee. 20And whoeverH376 liethH7901 carnallyH2233H7902 with a womanH802, that is a slaveH8198, betrothedH2778 to an husbandH376, and not at allH6299 redeemedH6299, nor freedomH2668 givenH5414 her; she shall be scourgedH1244; they shall not be put to deathH4191, because she was not freeH2666.23 21And he shall bringH935 his trespass offeringH817 to the LORDH3068, to the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, even a ramH352 for a trespass offeringH817. 22And the priestH3548 shall make an atonementH3722 for him with the ramH352 of the trespass offeringH817 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 for his sinH2403 which he hath doneH2398: and the sinH2403 which he hath doneH2398 shall be forgivenH5545 him. 23And when ye shall comeH935 into the landH776, and shall have plantedH5193 all manner of treesH6086 for foodH3978, then ye shall countH6188 its fruitH6529 as uncircumcisedH6188H6190: threeH7969 yearsH8141 shall it be as uncircumcisedH6189 to you: it shall not be eatenH398 of. 24But in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 all its fruitH6529 shall be holyH6944 to praiseH1974 the LORDH3068 with .4 25And in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 shall ye eatH398 of its fruitH6529, that it may yieldH3254 to you its increaseH8393: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 26Ye shall not eatH398 any thing with the bloodH1818: neither shall ye use enchantmentH5172, nor observe timesH6049. 27Ye shall not shave aroundH5362 the sidesH6285 of your headsH7218, neither shalt thou marH7843 the cornersH6285 of thy beardH2206. 28Ye shall not makeH5414 anyH3793 cuttingsH8296 in your fleshH1320 for the deadH5315, nor tattooH5414 any marksH7085 upon you: I am the LORDH3068. 29Do not prostituteH2490 thy daughterH1323, to cause her to be an harlotH2181; lest the landH776 should fall to harlotryH2181, and the landH776 become fullH4390 of wickednessH2154.5
30Ye shall keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676, and reverenceH3372 my sanctuaryH4720: I am the LORDH3068. 31RegardH6437 not them that have mediumsH178, neither seekH1245 after wizardsH3049, to be defiledH2930 by them: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 32Thou shalt rise upH6965 beforeH6440 the hoary headH7872, and honourH1921 the faceH6440 of the old manH2205, and fearH3372 thy GodH430: I am the LORDH3068. 33And if a strangerH1616 shall sojournH1481 with thee in your landH776, ye shall not oppressH3238 him.6 34But the strangerH1616 that dwellethH1481 with you shall be to you as one bornH249 among you, 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 no unrighteousnessH5766 in judgmentH4941, in lengthH4060, in weightH4948, or in volumeH4884. 36JustH6664 balancesH3976, justH6664 weightsH68, a justH6664 ephahH374, and a justH6664 hinH1969, shall ye have: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430, who brought you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.7 37Therefore shall ye observeH8104 all my statutesH2708, and all my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 them: I am the LORDH3068.
