1 Later, the LORD instructed Moses, The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
2 |Tell the Israelis that “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land you are to inhabit, which I am giving you, “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘After you enter the land I am giving you as a home
3 when you enter the land where you'll be living that I'm about to give you, you are to make an offering by fire to the LORD, either a burnt offering, a sacrificial offering to fulfill a vow, or a voluntary offering at the appointed time, to make a pleasing aroma to the LORD either from your cattle or from your flocks. and you offer to the LORD from the herd or from the flock a food offering or a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering or at your appointed feasts, to make a pleasing aroma to the LORD, and you present to the LORD food offerings from the herd or the flock, as an aroma pleasing to the LORD—whether burnt offerings or sacrifices, for special vows or freewill offerings or festival offerings—
4 The offeror is to bring the oblation to the LORD, containing one tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with one fourth of a hin of olive oil. then he who brings his offering shall offer to the LORD a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with a quarter of a hin of oil; then the person who brings an offering shall present to the LORD a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with a quarter of a hin of olive oil.
5 Also prepare one fourth of a hin of wine for a drink offering or for the sacrifice of each lamb. and you shall offer with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, a quarter of a hin of wine for the drink offering for each lamb. With each lamb for the burnt offering or the sacrifice, prepare a quarter of a hin of wine as a drink offering.
6 |For a ram, prepare a grain offering consisting of two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one third of a hin of olive oil. Or for a ram, you shall offer for a grain offering two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a third of a hin of oil. “’With a ram prepare a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with a third of a hin of olive oil,
7 Now as for your drink offering, offer one third of a hin of wine as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. And for the drink offering you shall offer a third of a hin of wine, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. and a third of a hin of wine as a drink offering. Offer it as an aroma pleasing to the LORD.
8 |When you prepare a bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or for peace offerings to the LORD, And when you offer a bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or for peace offerings to the LORD, “’When you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice, for a special vow or a fellowship offering to the LORD,
9 then the bullock is to be presented accompanied by a meal offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil. then one shall offer with the bull a grain offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with half a hin of oil. bring with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with half a hin of olive oil,
10 |As for drink offerings, offer half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire is a pleasing aroma to the LORD. And you shall offer for the drink offering half a hin of wine, as a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. and also bring half a hin of wine as a drink offering. This will be a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD.
11 Do this for each bullock, ram, male lamb, or goat. “Thus it shall be done for each bull or ram, or for each lamb or young goat. Each bull or ram, each lamb or young goat, is to be prepared in this manner.
12 Depending on the number of offerings that you prepare, do for each one according to their number. As many as you offer, so shall you do with each one, as many as there are. Do this for each one, for as many as you prepare.
13 Every native born person is to do these things, bringing an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.| Every native Israelite shall do these things in this way, in offering a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. “’Everyone who is native-born must do these things in this way when they present a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD.
14 |Now, if a resident alien lives with you, or whoever else is with you throughout your generations, let him make an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. Just as you do, so is he to do. And if a stranger is sojourning with you, or anyone is living permanently among you, and he wishes to offer a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the LORD, he shall do as you do. For the generations to come, whenever a foreigner or anyone else living among you presents a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, they must do exactly as you do.
15 There is to be a single standard for your community, one statute for you and the resident alien who lives with you, a long lasting statute throughout your generations. Just as you do, so is the resident alien to do in the presence of the LORD. For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a statute forever throughout your generations. You and the sojourner shall be alike before the LORD. The community is to have the same rules for you and for the foreigner residing among you; this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You and the foreigner shall be the same before the LORD:
16 There is to be one law and one ordinance for you and for the resident alien who lives with you.| One law and one rule shall be for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.” The same laws and regulations will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing among you.’”
17 Then the LORD instructed Moses: The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
18 |Tell the Israelis that when they enter the land that I'm about to bring you to, “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land to which I bring you “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land to which I am taking you
19 when you have eaten some of the bread that the land produces, you are to offer a raised offering to the LORD. and when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall present a contribution to the LORD. and you eat the food of the land, present a portion as an offering to the LORD.
20 You are to offer a cake made from the first of your bread dough as a raised offering to the LORD. Offer it as a raised offering right off your threshing floor. Of the first of your dough you shall present a loaf as a contribution; like a contribution from the threshing floor, so shall you present it. Present a loaf from the first of your ground meal and present it as an offering from the threshing floor.
21 From then on, throughout your generations give the first of your bread dough to the LORD.| Some of the first of your dough you shall give to the LORD as a contribution throughout your generations. Throughout the generations to come you are to give this offering to the LORD from the first of your ground meal.
22 |Here's what you are to do when you all go astray and fail to observe all these commands that the LORD had spoken to Moses, “But if you sin unintentionally, and do not observe all these commandments that the LORD has spoken to Moses, “’Now if you as a community unintentionally fail to keep any of these commands the LORD gave Moses—
23 including anything that the LORD commanded you by the authority of Moses, starting from the day the LORD commanded Moses and continuing through your generations. all that the LORD has commanded you by Moses, from the day that the LORD gave commandment, and onward throughout your generations, any of the LORD’s commands to you through him, from the day the LORD gave them and continuing through the generations to come—
24 When anything is done without the knowledge of the congregation, the entire community is to offer one young bull for a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD, along with its meal and drink offerings offered according to procedure, and one male goat for a sin offering. then if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation, all the congregation shall offer one bull from the herd for a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD, with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the rule, and one male goat for a sin offering. and if this is done unintentionally without the community being aware of it, then the whole community is to offer a young bull for a burnt offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, along with its prescribed grain offering and drink offering, and a male goat for a sin offering.
25 Then the priest is to make atonement for the entire community of the Israelis, and they will be forgiven for inadvertent sins. They are to bring their offering, an offering made by fire to the LORD, as well as their sin offering, into the LORD's presence on account of their error. And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the people of Israel, and they shall be forgiven, because it was a mistake, and they have brought their offering, a food offering to the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD for their mistake. The priest is to make atonement for the whole Israelite community, and they will be forgiven, for it was not intentional and they have presented to the LORD for their wrong a food offering and a sin offering.
26 Then the entire community of Israel will be forgiven, along with the resident alien who lives among them, since all the people will have sinned inadvertently.| And all the congregation of the people of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger who sojourns among them, because the whole population was involved in the mistake. The whole Israelite community and the foreigners residing among them will be forgiven, because all the people were involved in the unintentional wrong.
27 |Now when one person sins inadvertently, then he is to bring a one year old female goat for a sin offering. “If one person sins unintentionally, he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering. “’But if just one person sins unintentionally, that person must bring a year-old female goat for a sin offering.
28 Then, in the LORD's presence, the priest is to make atonement for the person who sinned inadvertently, that is, to make atonement on his behalf so he may be forgiven. And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for the person who makes a mistake, when he sins unintentionally, to make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven. The priest is to make atonement before the LORD for the one who erred by sinning unintentionally, and when atonement has been made, that person will be forgiven.
29 You are to have a single law for the one who does things inadvertently, whether for the native-born Israeli or for the resident alien who lives among you.| You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the people of Israel and for the stranger who sojourns among them. One and the same law applies to everyone who sins unintentionally, whether a native-born Israelite or a foreigner residing among you.
30 |But if some person acts with a high hand, whether a native-born or a resident alien, he blasphemes God, and that person is to be eliminated from among his people. But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native or a sojourner, reviles the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from among his people. “’But anyone who sins defiantly, whether native-born or foreigner, blasphemes the LORD and must be cut off from the people of Israel.
31 Because he has despised the law of the LORD and has broken his commands, that person is certainly to be eliminated. His iniquity will remain on him.| Because he has despised the word of the LORD and has broken his commandment, that person shall be utterly cut off; his iniquity shall be on him.” Because they have despised the LORD’s word and broken his commands, they must surely be cut off; their guilt remains on them.’”
32 As it was when the Israelis were in the wilderness, they found a man who was gathering wood on the Sabbath day. While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day.
33 The ones who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and all the people. And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation. Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly,
34 Then they confined him until it could be declared what should be done to him. They put him in custody, because it had not been made clear what should be done to him. and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him.
35 Then the LORD told Moses, |The man is certainly to die. The entire community is to stone him to death outside the camp.| And the LORD said to Moses, “The man shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp.” Then the LORD said to Moses, “The man must die. The whole assembly must stone him outside the camp.”
36 So the whole community brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones so that he died, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, as the LORD commanded Moses. So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD commanded Moses.
37 Later, the LORD instructed Moses, The LORD said to Moses, The LORD said to Moses,
38 |Tell the Israelis that they are to make tassels at the edges of their garments throughout their generations and that they are to put a violet cord on the tassels at the edges of their garments. “Speak to the people of Israel, and tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a cord of blue on the tassel of each corner. “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘Throughout the generations to come you are to make tassels on the corners of your garments, with a blue cord on each tassel.
39 That way, when you see the tassel, you'll remember all the commands of the LORD and you'll observe them. Then you won't seek your own interests and desires that lead you to be unfaithful. And it shall be a tassel for you to look at and remember all the commandments of the LORD, to do them, not to follow after your own heart and your own eyes, which you are inclined to whore after. You will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes.
40 Therefore, remember to observe all my commands and to be holy in the presence of your God. So you shall remember and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God. Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God.
41 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God.| I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I am the LORD your God.” I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God.’”
