Leviticus 19:23-37 ▼

23 And when you⁺ come into the land, and you plant every kind of tree for food, then you⁺ shall regard their fruit uncircumcised. Three years it shall be uncircumcised to you⁺; it shall not be eaten.

24 And in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy praises to YHWH.

25 And in the fifth year you⁺ shall eat its fruit, to add to you⁺ its yield. I am YHWH your⁺ God.

26 You⁺ shall not eat with the blood. You⁺ shall not practice divination, and you⁺ shall not practice soothsaying.

27 You⁺ shall not round off the edge of your⁺ head, and you shall not destroy the edge of your beard.

28 And a cutting for a soul you⁺ shall not make in your⁺ flesh, and a tattoo mark you⁺ shall not put on yourselves. I am YHWH.

29 You shall not profane your daughter by making her practice prostitution, and the land will not practice prostitution, and the land become full of wickedness.

30 My Sabbaths you⁺ shall keep, and My sanctuary you⁺ shall fear. I am YHWH.

31 You⁺ shall not turn to the mediums and to the spiritists; you⁺ shall not seek after them to be defiled by them. I am YHWH your⁺ God.

32 Before the face of the gray headed you shall rise, and you shall honor the presence of an old man, and you shall fear your God. I am YHWH.

33 And if a sojourner sojourns with you in your⁺ land, you⁺ shall not oppress him.

34 As a native from among you⁺ shall be to you⁺ the sojourner who is sojourning with you⁺, and you shall love him as yourself, for you⁺ were sojourners in the land of Egypt. I am YHWH your⁺ God.

35 You⁺ shall not do injustice in judgment in measure, in weight, and in volume.

36 Righteous scales, righteous stones, a righteous ephah, and a righteous hin shall be unto you⁺. I am YHWH your⁺ God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

37 And you⁺ shall keep all My statutes and all My judgments, and you⁺ shall do them. I am YHWH.”
