Let fifty days be numbered, to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you are to give a new meal offering to the Lord.

Take from your houses two cakes of bread, made of a fifth part of an ephah of the best meal, cooked with leaven, to be waved for first-fruits to the Lord.

And with the bread, take seven lambs of the first year, without any marks, and one ox and two male sheep, to be a burned offering to the Lord, with their meal offering and their drink offerings, an offering of a sweet smell made by fire to the Lord.

And you are to give one male goat for a sin-offering and two male lambs of the first year for peace-offerings

And these will be waved by the priest, with the bread of the first-fruits, for a wave offering to the Lord, with the two lambs: they will be holy to the Lord for the priest.

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.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Say to the children of Israel, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, let there be a special day of rest for you, a day of memory, marked by the blowing of horns, a meeting for worship.

Do no field-work and give to the Lord an offering made by fire.

And the Lord said to Moses,

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.

For any person, whoever he may be, who takes his pleasure on that day will be cut off from his people.

And if any person, whoever he may be, on that day does any sort of work, I will send destruction on him from among his people.

You may not do any sort of work: this is an order for ever through all your generations wherever you may be living.

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 the Lord said to Moses,

Say to the children of Israel, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month let the feast of tents be kept to the Lord for seven days.

On the first day there will be a holy meeting: do no field-work.

Every day for seven days give an offering made by fire to the Lord; and on the eighth day there is to be a holy meeting, when you are to give an offering made by fire to the Lord; this is a special holy day: you may do no field-work on that day

These are the fixed feasts of the Lord, to be kept by you as holy days of worship, for making an offering by fire to the Lord; a burned offering, a meal offering, an offering of beasts, and drink offerings; every one on its special day;

In addition to the Sabbaths of the Lord, and in addition to the things you give and the oaths you make and the free offerings to the Lord

But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have got in all the fruits of the land, you will keep the feast of the Lord for seven days: the first day will be a Sabbath, and the eighth day the same.

On the first day, take the fruit of fair trees, branches of palm-trees, and branches of thick trees and trees from the riverside, and be glad before the Lord for seven days.

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.

For seven days you will be living in tents; all those who are Israelites by birth are to make tents their living-places:

And Moses made clear to the children of Israel the orders about the fixed feasts of the Lord.

And the Lord said to Moses,

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,

And put them in two lines, six in a line, on the holy table before the Lord.

And on the lines of cakes put clean sweet-smelling spices, for a sign on the bread, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

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 the son of the Israelite woman said evil against the holy Name, with curses; and they took him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

And the Lord said to Moses,

And say to the children of Israel, As for any man cursing God, his sin will be on his head.

And he who says evil against the name of the Lord will certainly be put to death; he will be stoned by all the people; the man who is not of your nation and one who is an Israelite by birth, whoever says evil against the holy Name is to be put to death.

And anyone who takes another's life is certainly to be put to death.

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.

You are to have the same law for a man of another nation living among you as for an Israelite; for I am the Lord your God.

And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, and they took the man who had been cursing outside the tent-circle and had him stoned. The children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

And the Lord said to Moses on Mount Sinai,

Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land which I will give you, let the land keep a Sabbath to the Lord.

For six years put seed into your land, and for six years give care to your vines and get in the produce of them;

But let the seventh year be a Sabbath of rest for the land, a Sabbath to the Lord; do not put seed into your land or have your vines cut.

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.

And let seven Sabbaths of years be numbered to you, seven times seven years; even the days of seven Sabbaths of years, that is forty-nine years;

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.

Let this fiftieth year be the Jubilee: no seed may be planted, and that which comes to growth of itself may not be cut, and the grapes may not be taken from the uncared-for vines.

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

In this year of Jubilee, let every man go back to his heritage.

And in the business of trading goods for money, do no wrong to one another.

Let your exchange of goods with your neighbours have relation to the number of years after the year of Jubilee, and the number of times the earth has given her produce.

And do no wrong, one to another, but let the fear of your God be before you; for I am the Lord your God.

So keep my rules and my decisions and do them, and you will be safe in your land.

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

If your brother becomes poor, and has to give up some of his land for money, his nearest relation may come and get back that which his brother has given up.

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.

But houses in small unwalled towns will be the same as property in the country; they may be got back, and they will go back to their owners in the year of Jubilee.

And if a Levite does not give money to get back his property, his house in the town which was exchanged for money will come back to him in the year of Jubilee. For the houses of the towns of the Levites are their property among the children of Israel.

And if your brother becomes poor and is not able to make a living, then you are to keep him with you, helping him as you would a man from another country who is living among you.

Do not take interest on the money which you let him have or on the food which you give him.

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.

And if your brother becomes poor and gives himself to you for money, do not make use of him like a servant who is your property;

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.

Do not be a hard master to him, but have the fear of God before you.

And in addition, you may get, for money, servants from among the children of other nations who are living with you, and from their families which have come to birth in your land; and these will be your property.

And they will be your children's heritage after you, to keep as their property; they will be your servants for ever; but you may not be hard masters to your countrymen, the children of Israel.

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;

After he has given himself he has the right to be made free, for a price, by one of his brothers,

And let the years be numbered from the time when he gave himself to his owner till the year of Jubilee, and the price given for him will be in relation to the number of years, on the scale of the payment of a servant.

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 he will be with him as a servant working for payment year by year; his master is not to be cruel to him before your eyes.

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.

Keep my Sabbaths and give honour to my holy place: I am the Lord.

If you are guided by my rules, and keep my laws and do them,

And I will give you peace in the land, and you will take your rest and no one will give you cause for fear; and I will put an end to all evil beasts in the land, and no sword of war will go through your land.

And you will put to flight those who are against you, and they will be put to death by your swords.

Then five of you will put to flight a hundred, and a hundred of you will put to flight ten thousand, and all who are against you will be put to death by your swords.

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.

But if you do not give ear to me, and do not keep all these my laws;

And if you go against my rules and if you have hate in your souls for my decisions and you do not do all my orders, but go against my agreement;

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.

And if, even after these things, you will not give ear to me, then I will send you punishment seven times more for your sins.

And if you still go against me and will not give ear to me, I will put seven times more punishments on you because of your sins.

And if by these things you will not be turned to me, but still go against me;

And I will send a sword on you to give effect to the punishment of my agreement; and when you come together into your towns I will send disease among you and you will be given up into the hands of your haters.

And if, after all this, you do not give ear to me, but go against me still,

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

And they will have grief for their sins and for the sins of their fathers, when their hearts were untrue to me, and they went against me;

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.
