And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to all the people of Israel, You are to be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.

Let every man give honour to his mother and to his father and keep my Sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.

Do not go after false gods, and do not make metal images of gods for yourselves: I am the Lord your God.

And when you give a peace offering to the Lord, do it in the way which is pleasing to the Lord.

Let it be used for food on the same day on which it is offered, or on the day after; and whatever is over on the third day is to be burned with fire.

If any of it is used for food on the third day, it is a disgusting thing and will not be pleasing to the Lord.

And when you get in the grain from your land, do not let all the grain be cut from the edges of the field, or take up what has been dropped on the earth after the getting in of the grain.

And do not take all the grapes from your vine-garden, or the fruit dropped on the earth; let the poor man, and the man from another country, have these: I am the Lord your God.

Do not take anyone's property or be false in act or word to another.

And do not take an oath in my name falsely, putting shame on the name of your God: I am the Lord.

Do not be cruel to your neighbour or take what is his; do not keep back a servant's payment from him all night till the morning.

Do not put a curse on those who have no hearing, or put a cause of falling in the way of the blind, but keep the fear of your God before you: I am the Lord.

Do no wrong in your judging: do not give thought to the position of the poor, or honour to the position of the great; but be a judge to your neighbour in righteousness.

Do not go about saying untrue things among your people, or take away the life of your neighbour by false witness: I am the Lord.

Let there be no hate in your heart for your brother; but you may make a protest to your neighbour, so that he may be stopped from doing evil.

Do not make attempts to get equal with one who has done you wrong, or keep hard feelings against the children of your people, but have love for your neighbour as for yourself: I am the Lord.

Keep my laws. Do not let your cattle have offspring by those of a different sort; do not put mixed seed into your field; do not put on a robe made of two sorts of cloth.

If any man has sex relations with a servant-woman who has given her word to be married to a man, and has not been made free for a price or in any other way, the thing will be looked into; but they will not be put to death because she was not a free woman.

Let him take his offering for wrongdoing to the Lord, to the door of the Tent of meeting; let him give a male sheep as an offering for wrongdoing.

And in the fourth year all the fruit will be holy as a praise-offering to the Lord.

Do not make your daughter common by letting her become a loose woman, for fear that the land may become full of shame.

Do not go after those who make use of spirits, or wonder-workers; do not go in their ways or become unclean through them: I am the Lord your God.

Get up from your seats before the white-haired, and give honour to the old, and let the fear of your God be before you: I am the Lord.

And if a man from another country is living in your land with you, do not make life hard for him;

Let him be to you as one of your countrymen and have love for him as for yourself; for you were living in a strange land, in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

Do not make false decisions in questions of yard-sticks and weights and measures.

You are to keep all my rules and my decisions and do them: I am the Lord.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Again, say to the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or any other man living in Israel, gives his offspring to Molech, he is certainly to be put to death: he is to be stoned by the people of the land;

And my face will be turned against that man, and he will be cut off from his people; because he has given his offspring to Molech, making my holy place unclean, and making my holy name common.

And if the people of the land do not take note of that man when he gives his offspring to Molech, and do not put him to death,

Then my face will be turned against him and his family, and he and all those who do evil with him will be cut off from among their people.

And keep my rules and do them: I am the Lord, who make you holy.

Every man cursing his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death; because of his curse on his father or his mother, his blood will be on him.

And if a man has sex relations with another man's wife, even the wife of his neighbour, he and she are certainly to be put to death.

And the man who has sex relations with his father's wife has put shame on his father: the two of them are to be put to death; their blood will be on them.

And if a man has sex relations with his son's wife, the two of them are to be put to death: it is unnatural; their blood will be on them.

And if a man has sex relations with a man, the two of them have done a disgusting thing: let them be put to death; their blood will be on them.

And if a man has sex relations with a beast, let him be put to death, and let the beast be put to destruction.

And if a woman goes near a beast and has sex relations with it, you will put an end to the woman and the beast: their blood will be on them.

And if a man takes his sister, daughter of his father or his mother, and has sex relations with her and she with him, it is an act of shame: they are to be cut off before the children of their people; he has had sex relations with his sister, and his sin will be on him.

And if a man has sex relations with a woman at the time when she is unwell, he has seen her fountain and she has let the fountain of her blood be uncovered, and the two of them are to be cut off from among their people.

And if a man has sex relations with the wife of his father's brother, he has put shame on his father's brother: their sin will be on them; till the day of their death they will have no children.

So then, keep my rules and my decisions and do them, so that the land which I am giving you as your resting-place may not violently send you out again.

And do not keep the rules of the nations which I am driving out before you; for they did all these things, and for that reason my soul was turned against them.

But I have said to you, You will take their land and I will give it to you for your heritage, a land flowing with milk and honey: I am the Lord your God who have made you separate from all other peoples.

So then, make division between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the clean bird and the unclean: do not make yourselves disgusting by any beast or bird or anything which goes flat on the earth, which has been marked by me as unclean for you.

And you are to be holy to me; for I the Lord am holy and have made you separate from the nations, so that you may be my people.

Any man or woman who makes use of spirits, or who is a wonder-worker, is to be put to death: they are to be stoned with stones: their blood will be on them.

And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the priests, the sons of Aaron, Let no man make himself unclean for the dead among his people;

But let him, being a chief among his people, not make himself unclean in such a way as to put shame on himself.

They are not to have their hair cut off for the dead, or the hair on their chins cut short, or make cuts in their flesh.

Let them be holy to their God and not make the name of their God common; for the fire offerings of the Lord and the bread of their God are offered by them, and they are to be holy.

They may not take as wife a loose or common woman, or one who has been put away by her husband: for the priest is holy to his God.

And he is to be holy in your eyes, for by him the bread of your God is offered; he is to be holy in your eyes, for I the Lord, who make you holy, am holy.

And he who is the chief priest among his brothers, on whose head the holy oil has been put, who is marked out to put on the holy robes, may not let his hair go loose or have his clothing out of order as a sign of sorrow.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to Aaron, If a man of your family, in any generation, is damaged in body, let him not come near to make the offering of the bread of his God.

No man of the offspring of Aaron whose body is damaged in any way may come near to give the fire offerings of the Lord: he is damaged, he may not come near to make the offerings.

These are the words which Moses said to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Give orders to Aaron and to his sons to keep themselves separate from the holy things of the children of Israel which they give to me, and not to make my holy name common: I am the Lord,

Say to them, If any man of all your seed through all your generations, being unclean, comes near the holy things which the children of Israel make holy to the Lord, he will be cut off from before me: I am the Lord.

That which comes to a natural death, or is attacked by beasts, he may not take as food, for it will make him unclean: I am the Lord.

But any person for whom the priest has given money, to make him his, may take of it with him; and those who come to birth in his house may take of his bread.

And if the daughter of a priest is married to an outside person she may not take of the holy things which are lifted up as offerings.

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.

And if a man takes the holy food in error, he will have to give the holy thing back to the priest, with the addition of a fifth part.

And they may not make common the holy things which the children of Israel give to the Lord,

So causing sin to come on them when they take their holy things for food: I am the Lord who make them holy.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or of another nation living in Israel, makes an offering, given because of an oath or freely given to the Lord for a burned offering;

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 animal which has its sex parts damaged or crushed or broken or cut, may not be offered to the Lord; such a thing may not be done anywhere in your land.

And from one who is not an Israelite you may not take any of these for an offering to the Lord; for they are unclean, there is a mark on them, and the Lord will not be pleased with them.

And the Lord said to Moses,

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.

A cow or a sheep may not be put to death with its young on the same day.

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.

So then, keep my orders and do them: 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,

And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to the children of Israel, These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, which you will keep for holy meetings: these are my feasts.

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.

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

And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread; for seven days let your food be unleavened bread.

On the first day you will have a holy meeting; you may do no sort of field-work.

And every day for seven days you will give a burned offering to the Lord; and on the seventh day there will be a holy meeting; you may do no field-work.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to the children of Israel, When you have come to the land which I will give you, and have got in the grain from its fields, take some of the first-fruits of the grain to the priest;

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 on the day of the waving of the grain, you are to give a male lamb of the first year, without any mark, for a burned offering to the Lord.

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 you may take no bread or dry grain or new grain for food till the very day on which you have given the offering for your God: this is a rule for ever through all your generations wherever you are living

And let seven full weeks be numbered from the day after the Sabbath, the day when you give the grain for the wave offering;
