2Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure oil olive beaten or the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.

4He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the Lord continually.

6And you shall set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the Lord.

7And you shall put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the Lord.

8Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.   agreement

9And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the Lord made by fire by a perpetual statute.

The Penalty for Blasphemy

10And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;   fought

11And the Israelitish woman’s son blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed. And they brought him to Moses: (and his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)

12And they put him in ward, that the mind of the Lord might be showed them.   custody

13And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

14Bring forth him that has cursed outside the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.

15And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curses his God shall bear his sin.

16And he that blasphemes the name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemes the name of the Lord, shall be put to death.   MATT 26:65; MARK 14:64; JOHN 10:33; JOHN 19:7

17And he that kills any man shall surely be put to death.

18And he that kills a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.

19And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him;   injury

20Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he has caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.

21And he that kills a beast, he shall restore it: and he that kills a man, he shall be put to death.

22Youp shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of yourp own country: for I am the Lord yourp God.

23And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
