But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or parted from her husband, and has no child, and has come back to her father's house as when she was a girl, she may take of her father's bread; but no outside person may do so.

So that it may be pleasing to the Lord, let him give a male, without any mark, from among the oxen or the sheep or the goats.

But anything which has a mark you may not give; it will not make you pleasing to the Lord.

And whoever makes a peace-offering to the Lord, in payment of an oath or as a free offering, from the herd or the flock, if it is to be pleasing to the Lord, let it be free from any mark or damage.

Anything blind or broken or damaged or having any disease or any mark on it may not be offered to the Lord; you may not make an offering of it by fire on the altar to the Lord.

An ox or a lamb which has more or less than its natural parts, may be given as a free offering; but it will not be taken in payment of an oath.

When an ox or a sheep or a goat is given birth, let it be with its mother for seven days; and after the eighth day it may be taken as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

And when you make an offering of praise to the Lord, make it in a way which is pleasing to him.

Let it be used for food on the same day; do not keep any part of it till the morning: I am the Lord.

And do not make my holy name common; so that it may be kept holy by the children of Israel: I am the Lord who make you holy,

Who took you out of the land of Egypt that I might be your God: I am the Lord.

On six days work may be done; but the seventh day is a special day of rest, a time for worship; you may do no sort of work: it is a Sabbath to the Lord wherever you may be living.

These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, the holy days of worship which you will keep at their regular times

In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at nightfall, is the Lord's Passover;

And let the grain be waved before the Lord, so that you may be pleasing to him; on the day after the Sabbath let it be waved by the priest.

And let the meal offering with it be two tenth parts of an ephah of the best meal mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a sweet smell; and the drink offering with it is to be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.

And on the same day, let it be given out that there will be a holy meeting for you: you may do no field-work on that day: it is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living

And when you get in the grain from your land, do not let all the grain at the edges of the field be cut, and do not take up the grain which has been dropped in the field; let that be for the poor, and for the man from another country: I am the Lord your God.

The tenth day of this seventh month is the day for the taking away of sin; let it be a holy day of worship; you are to keep from pleasure, and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.

And on that day you may do no sort of work, for it is a day of taking away sin, to make you clean before the Lord your God.

Let this be a Sabbath of special rest to you, and keep yourselves from all pleasure; on the ninth day of the month at nightfall from evening to evening, let this Sabbath be kept.

And let this feast be kept before the Lord for seven days in the year: it is a rule for ever from generation to generation; in the seventh month let it be kept.

So that future generations may keep in mind how I gave the children of Israel tents as their living-places when I took them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

Give orders to the children of Israel to give you clean olive oil for the light, so that a light may be burning at all times,

Outside the veil of the ark in the Tent of meeting; let Aaron see that it is burning from evening till morning at all times before the Lord: it is a rule for ever through all your generations.

Let Aaron put the lights in order on the support before the Lord at all times.

And take the best meal and make twelve cakes of it, a fifth part of an ephah in every cake.

Every Sabbath day regularly, the priest is to put it in order before the Lord: it is offered for the children of Israel, an agreement made for ever.

And it will be for Aaron and his sons; they are to take it for food in a holy place: it is the most holy of all the offerings made by fire to the Lord, a rule for ever.

And a son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel and had a fight with a man of Israel by the tents;

And anyone wounding a beast and causing its death, will have to make payment for it: a life for a life.

And if a man does damage to his neighbour, as he has done, so let it be done to him;

Wound for wound, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; whatever damage he has done, so let it be done to him.

He who puts a beast to death will have to make payment for it; he who puts a man to death will himself be put to death.

That which comes to growth of itself may not be cut, and the grapes of your uncared-for vines may not be taken off; let it be a year of rest for the land.

Then let the loud horn be sounded far and wide on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the day of taking away sin let the horn be sounded through all your land.

And let this fiftieth year be kept holy, and say publicly that everyone in the land is free from debt: it is the Jubilee, and every man may go back to his heritage and to his family.

For it is the Jubilee, and it is holy to you; your food will be the natural increase of the field.

If the number of years is great, the price will be increased, and if the number of years is small, the price will be less, for it is the produce of a certain number of years which the man is giving you.

Wherever there is property in land, the owner is to have the right of getting it back.

And if he has no one to get it back for him, and later he himself gets wealth and has enough money to get it back;

Then let him take into account the years from the time when he gave it up, and make up the loss for the rest of the years to him who took it, and so get back his property.

But if he is not able to get it back for himself, then it will be kept by him who gave a price for it, till the year of Jubilee; and in that year it will go back to its first owner and he will have his property again.

And if a man gives his house in a walled town for money, he has the right to get it back for the space of a full year after he has given it up.

And if he does not get it back by the end of the year, then the house in the town will become the property of him who gave the money for it, and of his children for ever; it will not go from him in the year of Jubilee.

But the houses in the towns of the Levites may be got back by the Levites at any time.

But the land on the outskirts of their towns may not be exchanged for money, for it is their property for ever.

I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, that I might be your God.

Then he will go out from you, he and his children with him, and go back to his family and to the property of his fathers.

For they are my servants whom I took out from the land of Egypt; they may not become the property of another.

And if one from another nation living among you gets wealth, and your countryman, at his side, becomes poor and gives himself for money to the man from another nation or to one of his family;

If there is still a long time, he will give back, on account of it, a part of the price which was given for him.

And if there is only a short time, he will take account of it with his master, and in relation to the number of years he will give back the price of making him free.

And if he is not made free in this way, he will go out in the year of Jubilee, he and his children with him.

For the children of Israel are servants to me; they are my servants whom I took out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

Do not make images of false gods, or put up an image cut in stone or a pillar or any pictured stone in your land, to give worship to it; for I am the Lord your God.

Then I will give you rain at the right time, and the land will give her increase and the trees of the field will give their fruit;

And old stores long kept will be your food, and you will take out the old because of the new;

I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt so that you might not be servants to them; by me the cords of your yoke were broken and I made you go upright.

This will I do to you: I will put fear in your hearts, even wasting disease and burning pain, drying up the eyes and making the soul feeble, and you will get no profit from your seed, for your haters will take it for food.

When I take away your bread of life, ten women will be cooking bread in one oven, and your bread will be measured out by weight; you will have food but never enough.

And I will make your land a waste, a wonder to your haters living in it.

And I will send you out in all directions among the nations, and my sword will be uncovered against you, and your land will be without any living thing, and your towns will be made waste.

Then will the land take pleasure in its Sabbaths while it is waste and you are living in the land of your haters; then will the land have rest.

All the days while it is waste will the land have rest, such rest as it never had in your Sabbaths, when you were living in it.

And because of them I will keep in mind the agreement which I made with their fathers, whom I took out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, to be their God: I am the Lord.

And you will put the value of a male from twenty years to sixty years old at fifty shekels of silver, by the scale of the holy place.

And if it is a female, the value will be thirty shekels.

But if he is poorer than the value which you have put on him, then let him be taken to the priest, and the priest will put a value on him, such as it is possible for him to give.

And if it is a beast of which men make offerings to the Lord, whatever any man gives of such to the Lord will be holy.

It may not be changed in any way, a good given for a bad, or a bad for a good; if one beast is changed for another, the two will be holy.

And if it is any unclean beast, of which offerings are not made to the Lord, then let him take the beast before the priest;

And let the priest put a value on it, if it is good or bad; whatever value the priest puts on it, so will it be.

But if he has a desire to get it back for himself, let him give a fifth more than your value.

And if a man has given his house as holy to the Lord, then the priest will put a value on it, if it is good or bad; as the priest gives decision so will the value be fixed.

And if the owner has a desire to get back his house, let him give a fifth more than your value, and it will be his.

And if a man gives to the Lord part of the field which is his property, then let your value be in relation to the seed which is planted in it; a measure of barley grain will be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

But if he gives his field after the year of Jubilee, the amount of the money will be worked out by the priest in relation to the number of years till the coming year of Jubilee, and the necessary amount will be taken off your value.

And if the man who has given the field has a desire to get it back, let him give a fifth more than the price at which it was valued and it will be his.

But if he has no desire to get it back, or if he has given it for a price to another man, it may not be got back again.

But the field, when it becomes free at the year of Jubilee, will be holy to the Lord, as a field given under oath: it will be the property of the priest.

Then the value fixed by you up to the year of Jubilee will be worked out for him by the priest, and in that day he will give the amount of your value as holy to the Lord.

In the year of Jubilee the field will go back to him from whom he got it, that is, to him whose heritage it was.

But a man may not give by oath to the Lord the first-fruits of cattle which are offered to the Lord: if it is an ox or a sheep it is the Lord's.

And if it is an unclean beast, then the owner of it may give money to get it back, in agreement with the value fixed by you, by giving a fifth more; or if it is not taken back, let it be given for money in agreement with your valuing.

But nothing which a man has given completely to the Lord, out of all his property, of man or beast, or of the land which is his heritage, may be given away or got back in exchange for money; anything completely given is most holy to the Lord.

He may not make search to see if it is good or bad, or make any changes in it; and if he makes exchange of it for another, the two will be holy; he will not get them back again.

And the Lord said to Moses in the waste land of Sinai, in the Tent of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they came out of the land of Egypt,

These are the men named out of all the people, chiefs of their fathers' houses, heads of the tribes of Israel.

And Moses and Aaron took these men, marked out by name;

But to them you are to give the care of the Tent of meeting with its vessels and everything in it: they are to take up the Tent, and be responsible for everything to do with it, and put up their tents round it.

And when the Tent of meeting goes forward, the Levites are to take it down; and when it is to be put up, they are to do it: any strange person who comes near it is to be put to death.

The number of all the armies of Ephraim was a hundred and eight thousand, one hundred. They go forward third.

These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests, on whom the holy oil was put, who were marked out as priests.

See, I have taken the Levites out of the children of Israel to be mine in place of the first sons of the children of Israel;

The tents of the Gershonites are to be placed at the back of the House, to the west.

Those who were numbered of them, the males from one month old and over, were eight thousand, six hundred, who were responsible for the care of the holy place.

And the pillars of the open space round it, with their bases and nails and cords.

All the Levites numbered by Moses and Aaron at the order of the Lord, all the males of one month old and over numbered in the order of their families, were twenty-two thousand.

From the first sons of Israel he took it, a thousand, three hundred and sixty-five shekels, by the scale of the holy place;
