[For] seven days you must present an offering made by fire to Yahweh. On the eighth day it shall be a holy assembly for you, and you shall present an offering made by fire to Yahweh; it [is] a celebration; you must not do {any regular work}.

" 'These [are] Yahweh's festivals, which you must proclaim, holy assemblies to present an offering made by fire to Yahweh--burnt offering and grain offering, sacrifice and libations, {each on its proper day}--

besides the Sabbaths of the Lord and all your gifts, votive offerings, and freewill offerings which you must give to the Lord.

"'On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you gather in the produce of the land, you must celebrate a pilgrim festival of the Lord for seven days. On the first day is a complete rest and on the eighth day is complete rest.

On the first day you must take for yourselves branches from majestic trees -- palm branches, branches of leafy trees, and willows of the brook -- and you must rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days.

And you must hold it [as] a festival for Yahweh [for] seven days in the year; [it shall be] a {lasting statute} throughout your generations; in the seventh month you must hold it.

You must live in the booths [for] seven days; all the natives in Israel must live in the booths,

"You must take choice wheat flour and bake twelve loaves; there must be two tenths of an ephah of flour in each loaf,

and you must set them in two rows, six in a row, on the ceremonially pure table before the Lord.

You must put pure frankincense on each row, and it will become a memorial portion for the bread, a gift to the Lord.

Each Sabbath day Aaron must arrange it before the Lord continually; this portion is from the Israelites as a perpetual covenant.

It will belong to Aaron and his sons, and they must eat it in a holy place because it is most holy to him, a perpetual allotted portion from the gifts of the Lord."

Whoever blasphemes the name of Yahweh is to be put to death; the whole community must stone him. If he blasphemes the Name, he is to be put to death, whether the foreign resident or the native.

“If a man kills anyone, he must be put to death.

And {he who kills} a domestic animal must repay [for] it life in place of life.

If a man inflicts an injury on his fellow citizen, just as he has done it must be done to him --

fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth -- just as he inflicts an injury on another person that same injury must be inflicted on him.

And a killer of a domestic animal must repay [for] it, and a killer of a human shall be put to death.

{You must have} one norm; as [for] the alien, so it must be [for] the native, because I [am] Yahweh your God.'"

"Speak to the Israelites and tell them, 'When you enter the land that I am giving you, the land must observe a Sabbath to the Lord.

But in the seventh year it shall be {a Sabbath of complete rest} for the land--a Sabbath for Yahweh; you must not sow your field, and you must not prune your vineyard.

You must not reap your harvest's aftergrowth, and you must not harvest the grapes of your unpruned vines--it shall be {a year of complete rest} for the land.

You must sound loud horn blasts -- in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, on the Day of Atonement -- you must sound the horn in your entire land.

And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and you shall proclaim a release in the land for all its inhabitants. It [is] a Jubilee; it shall be for you, and you shall return. You must return--everyone to his property and everyone to his clan.

{You shall have the fiftieth year as a Jubilee}; you must not reap its aftergrowth, and you must not harvest its unpruned vines.

Because it is a Jubilee, it shall be holy to you. You must eat its produce from the field.

"'In this year of jubilee you must each return to your property.

And when you sell something to your fellow citizen or [you] buy from your neighbor's hand, you must not oppress {one another}.

You must buy from your fellow citizen according to [the] number of years after the Jubilee; he must sell to you according to [the] number of years of yield.

You must increase its price {according to a greater number of years}, but you must decrease its price {according to a lesser number of years}, because he is selling [its] yields to you.

And you must not oppress {one another}, but you shall revere your God, because I [am] Yahweh, your God.

" 'And you shall do my statutes, and you must keep my regulations, and you shall do them, so that you shall live {securely} on the land.

" 'But the land must not be sold in perpetuity, because the land [is] mine, because you [are] aliens and temporary residents with me.

"'If a man sells a residential house in a walled city, its right of redemption must extend until one full year from its sale; its right of redemption must extend to a full calendar year.

The houses of villages, however, which have no wall surrounding them must be considered as the field of the land; they will have the right of redemption and must revert in the jubilee.

As for the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities which they possess, the Levites must have a perpetual right of redemption.

And whatever [anyone] redeems from the Levites then must go out [of the buyer's hand] in the Jubilee, [including] a house's selling {in his city's property}, because the houses in the cities of the Levites [are] their property in the midst of the {Israelites}.

But a field of their cities' pastureland must not be sold, because {it is their property for all time}.

You must not give your money to him with interest or give your food for profit.

“If your brother among you becomes destitute and sells himself to you, you must not force him to do slave labor.

He must be with you as a hired worker, as a resident foreigner; he must serve with you until the year of jubilee,

Since they are my servants whom I brought out from the land of Egypt, they must not be sold in a slave sale.

You may leave them to your sons after you to inherit as property; you can make them slaves for life. But concerning your brothers, the Israelites, you must not rule over one another harshly.

He must calculate with the one who bought him the number of years from the year he sold himself to him until the jubilee year, and the cost of his sale must correspond to the number of years, according to the rate of wages a hired worker would have earned while with him.

If many years are still left, he must pay his redemption price in proportion to them based on his purchase price.

but if only a few years remain until the jubilee, he must calculate for himself in keeping with the remaining years and refund it for his redemption.

He must be with the one who bought him like a yearly hired worker. The one who bought him must not rule over him harshly in your sight.

If, however, he is not redeemed in these ways, he must go free in the jubilee year, he and his children with him,

"'You must not make for yourselves idols, so you must not set up for yourselves a carved image or a pillar, and you must not place a sculpted stone in your land to bow down before it, for I am the Lord your God.

You must keep My Sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am Yahweh.

I also, must needs go in opposition to them, and bring them into the land of their foes, - Save only that, if, even then, their uncircumcised heart shall be humbled, And, even then, they shall accept as a payment the punishment of their iniquity,

And the land shall be deserted by them, and it shall enjoy its Sabbaths in its being desolate from them, and they themselves must pay for their guilt, {simply because} they rejected my regulations, and their inner self abhorred my statutes.

But if one is too poor to pay the assessment, he must present the person before the priest and the priest will set a value for him. The priest will set a value for him according to what the one making the vow can afford.

He must not replace or exchange it, good for bad or bad for good, and if he does indeed exchange one animal for another animal, then both the original animal and its substitute will be holy.

“If the vow involves any of the unclean animals that may not be brought as an offering to the Lord, the animal must be presented before the priest.

If the one who brought it decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the assessed value.

But if the one who consecrated his house redeems it, he must add a fifth to the assessed value, and it will be his.

"'If a man consecrates to the Lord some of his own landed property, the conversion value must be calculated in accordance with the amount of seed needed to sow it, a homer of barley seed being priced at fifty shekels of silver.

If the one who consecrated the field decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the assessed value, and the field will transfer back to him.

the priest will calculate for him the amount of its conversion value until the jubilee year, and he must pay the conversion value on that jubilee day as something that is holy to the Lord.

Every conversion value must be calculated by the standard of the sanctuary shekel; twenty gerahs to the shekel.

If it is one of the unclean livestock, it must be ransomed according to your assessment by adding a fifth of its value to it. If it is not redeemed, it can be sold according to your assessment.

"'Surely anything which a man permanently dedicates to the Lord from all that belongs to him, whether from people, animals, or his landed property, must be neither sold nor redeemed; anything permanently dedicated is most holy to the Lord.

No person who has been set apart for destruction is to be ransomed; he must be put to death.

If a man decides to redeem any part of this tenth, he must add a fifth to its value.

The owner must not examine the animals to distinguish between good and bad, and he must not exchange it. If, however, he does exchange it, both the original animal and its substitute will be holy. It must not be redeemed.'"
