1 AND the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | |
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy. | |
3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God. | |
4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God. | |
5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer it at your own will. | |
6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire. | |
7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall not be accepted. | |
8 Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people. | |
9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest. | |
10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the LORD your God. | |
11 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another. | |
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD. | |
13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning. | |
14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD. | |
15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour. | |
16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD. | |
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. | |
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD. | |
19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee. | |
20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free. | |
21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering. | |
22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him. | |
23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of. | |
24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the LORD withal. | |
25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the LORD your God. | |
26 Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times. | |
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. | |
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD. | |
29 Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness. | |
30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD. | |
31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. | |
32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the LORD. | |
33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him. | |
34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God. | |
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure. | |
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt. | |
37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the LORD. | |
