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.

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 only for his near relations, for his mother or his father, his son or his daughter, and his brother;

And for his sister, a virgin, for she is his near relation and has had no husband, he may make himself unclean.

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.

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 if the daughter of a priest makes herself common and by her loose behaviour puts shame on her father, let her be burned with fire.

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 let him take as his wife one who has not had relations with a man.

And he may not make his seed unclean among his people, for I the Lord have made him holy.

And the Lord said to Moses,

He may take of the bread of God, the holy and the most holy;

But he may not go inside the veil or come near the altar, because he is damaged; and he may not make my holy places common; for I the Lord have made them holy.

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,

No man of the seed of Aaron who is a leper, or who has a flow from his body, may take of the holy food till he is clean. And any man touching anything which is unclean because of the dead, or any man whose seed goes from him;

Any person touching any such unclean thing will be unclean till evening, and may not take of the holy food till his flesh has been bathed in water;

And when the sun has gone down he will be clean; and after that he may take part in the holy food, because it is his bread.

So then, let them keep what I have put into their care, for fear that sin may come on them because of it, so causing their death because they have made it common: I am the Lord, who make them holy.

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,

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;

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.

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.

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

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,

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

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;

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,

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.

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.

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,

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.

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

And the Lord said to Moses,

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

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.

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 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 they kept him shut up, till a decision might be given by the mouth of the Lord.

And the Lord said to Moses,

Take the curser outside the tent-circle; and let all in whose hearing the words were said put their hands on his head, and let him be stoned by all the people.

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.

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 the Sabbath of the land will give food for you and your man-servant and your woman-servant and those working for payment, and for those of another country who are living among you;

And for your cattle and the beasts on the land; all the natural increase of the land will be for food.

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.

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.

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.

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.
