Context of Leviticus 19:10

8Rather, anyone who eats it will bear his iniquity, since he has profaned what is holy to Adonai, and that soul will be cut off from his people. 9“When you reap the harvest of your land, you are not to reap to the very corners of your field, nor are you to gather the gleanings of your harvest. You are not to pick the remnants of your vineyard, nor are you to gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. Instead, you are to leave them for the poor and for the outsider. I am Adonai your God. 11“You are not to steal. You are not to lie. You are not to deceive one another. 12“You are not to swear by My Name falsely, and so profane the Name of your God. I am Adonai.
