neither shall go to any dead body nor make himself unclean: no not on his father or mother,

neither shall go out of the sanctuary, that he pollute not the holy place of his God, for the crown of the anointing oil of God, is upon him. I am the LORD.

that he defile not his seed upon his people. For I am the LORD which sanctify him.'"

No man that is deformed of the seed of Aaron the priest, shall come nigh to offer the sacrifices of the LORD. If he have a deformity, he shall not preace to offer the bread of his God.

but shall not go in unto the veil nor come nigh the altar, because he is deformed, that he pollute not my sanctuary, for I am the LORD that sanctify them.'"

"Bid Aaron and his sons that they abstain from the hallowed things of the children of Israel which they have hallowed unto me, that they pollute not mine holy name: for I am the LORD.

None of the seed of Aaron that is a leper or that hath a running sore, shall eat of the hallowed things until he be clean. And whosoever toucheth any unclean soul or man whose seed runneth from him by night,

the same soul that hath touched any such thing, shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the hallowed things until he have washed his flesh with water.

Of a beast that dieth alone or is rent with wild beasts, he shall not eat, to defile himself therewith: I am the LORD.

If the priest's daughter be married unto a stranger, she may not eat of the hallowed heave offerings.

And let the priests see, that they defile not the hallowed things of the children of Israel which they have offered unto the LORD,

An ox or a sheep that hath any member out of proportion, mayst thou offer for a freewill offering: but in a vow it shall not be accepted.

Thou shalt not offer unto the LORD that which hath his stones bruised, broken, plucked out or cut away, neither shalt make any such in your land,

And whether it be ox or sheep, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.

And pollute not my holy name, that I may be hallowed among the children of Israel. For I am the LORD which hallow you,

"'When ye reap down your harvest, thou shalt not make clean riddance of thy field, neither shalt thou make any after gathering of thy harvest: but shalt leave them unto the poor and the stranger. I am the LORD your God.'"

For whatsoever soul it be that humbleth not himself that day, he shall be destroyed from among his people.

The corn that groweth by itself thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes that grow without thy dressing: but it shall be a Sabbath of rest unto the land.

A year of horns blowing shall that fiftieth year be unto you. Ye shall not sow neither reap the corn that groweth by itself, nor gather the grapes that grow without thy labour.

"'When thou sellest ought unto thy neighbour or buyest of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

"'If ye shall say: What shall we eat the seventh year inasmuch as we shall not sow nor gather in our increase?

Wherefore the land shall not be sold forever, because that the land is mine, and ye but strangers and sojourners with me:

But and if his hand can not get sufficient to restore it to him again, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it, until the horn year: and in the horn year it shall come out, and he shall return unto his possession again.

But and if it be not bought out again within the space of a full year, then the house in the walled city shall be established forever unto him that bought it and to his successors after him and shall not go out in the trumpet year.

But the fields that lie round about their cities, shall not be bought: for they are their possessions forever.

Thou shalt not lend him thy money upon usury, nor lend him of thy food to have advantage by it;

"'If thy brother that dwelleth by thee wax poor and sell himself unto thee, thou shalt not let him labour as a bondservant doeth:

for they are my servants which I brought out of the land of Egypt, and shall not be sold as bondmen.

See therefore that thou reign not over him cruelly, but fear thy God.

And ye shall possess them and give them unto your children after you, to possess them for ever: and they shall be your bondmen. But over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not reign one over another cruelly.

and shall be with him year by year as a hired servant, and the other shall not reign cruelly over him in thy sight.

If he be not bought free in the meantime, then he shall go out in the trumpet year and his children with him;

I will make my dwelling place among you, and my soul shall not loathe you.

For I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that ye should not be their bondmen, and I broke the bows of your yokes, and made you go upright.

"'But and if ye will not hearken unto me, nor will do all these my commandments,

or if ye shall despise mine ordinances, either if your souls refuse my laws, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but shall break mine covenant:

"'And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then will I punish you seven times more for your sins,

And so your labour shall be spent in vain. For your land shall not give her increase, neither the trees of the land shall give their fruits.

And if ye walk contrary unto me and will not hearken unto me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.

And if ye will not be learned yet for all this, but shall walk contrary unto me,

And when I have broken the staff of your bread: that ten wives shall bake your bread in one oven and men shall deliver you your bread again by weight, then shall ye eat and shall not be satisfied.

"'And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, but shall walk contrary unto me,

And I will make your cities desolate, and bring your sanctuaries unto nought, and will not smell the savours of your sweet odours.

And as long as it lieth void it shall rest, for that it could not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.

And yet, for all that; when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not so cast them away nor my soul shall not so abhor them, that I will utterly destroy them and break mine covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God.

He may not alter it nor change it: a good for a bad or a bad for good. If he change beast for beast, then both the same beast and it also wherewith it was changed shall be holy.

If it be any manner of unclean beast of which men may not offer unto the LORD, let him bring the beast before the priest

and it shall be his: if he will not, it shall be redeemed no more.

"'If a man sanctify unto the LORD a field, which he hath bought and is not of his inheritance,

If it be an unclean beast, then let him redeem it as it is set at, and give the fifth part more thereto. If it be not redeemed, then let it be sold as it is rated.

Men shall not look if it be good or bad nor shall change it. If any man change it then both it and that it was changed withal, shall be holy and may not be redeemed.'"

But the Levites in the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.

"Only see that thou number not the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel.

And yet the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel, as the LORD commanded Moses.

"And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary and all things of the sanctuary, against that the host remove, then the sons of Kohath shall come in for to bear, and so let them not touch the sanctuary lest they die. And this is the charge of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of witness.

"Destroy not the tribe of the kindreds of the Kohathites, from among the Levites.

But thus do unto them that they may live and not die, when they go unto the most holy place. Aaron and his sons shall go in and put them, every man unto his service and unto his burden.

But let them not go in to see when they cover the sanctuary, lest they die."

whether they be males or females ye shall put them out of the host, that they defile not the tents among which I dwell."

so that another man lie with her, fleshly; and the thing be hid from the eyes of her husband and is not come to light that she is defiled - for there is no witness against her, inasmuch as she was not taken with the manner -

And if she be not defiled but is clean, then she shall have no harm, but that she may conceive.

Moreover he shall eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, no not so much as the kernels or the husk of the grape.

he shall not make himself unclean at the death of his father, mother, brother or sister: For the abstinence of his God is upon his head.

And it chanced that certain men which were defiled with a dead corpse, that they might not offer Passover the same day, came before Moses and Aaron the same day,

and said, "We are defiled upon a dead corpse, wherefore are we kept back that we may not offer an offering unto the LORD in the due season, among the children of Israel?"

But if a man be clean and not let in a journey, and yet was negligent to offer Passover, the same soul shall perish from his people, because he brought not an offering unto the LORD in his due season: and he shall bear his sin.

And so it was always, that the cloud covered it by day, and the similitude of fire by night.

and when the cloud tarried still upon the habitation a long time, the children of Israel waited upon the LORD and journeyed not.

And if it happened that the cloud was upon the habitation from evening unto morning and was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed. Whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.

But when the cloud tarried two days or a month or a long season upon the habitation, as long as it tarried thereon, the children of Israel kept their tents and journeyed not. And as soon as the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.

And in gathering the congregation together, ye shall blow and not trump.

And he said unto him, "I will not: but will go to mine own land and to my kindred."

And Moses said, "Oh nay, leave us not, for thou knowest where is best for us to pitch in the wilderness: and thou shalt be our eyes.

And when the dew fell about the host in the night, the Manna fell therewith.

And Moses said unto the LORD, "Wherefore dealest thou so cruelly with thy servant? Wherefore do I not find favour in thy sight, seeing that thou puttest the weight of this people upon me?

I am not able to bear all this people alone, for it is too heavy for me.

Wherefore, if thou deal thus with me; kill me, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thy sight: and let me not see my wretchedness."

And I will come down and talk with thee there, and take of the spirit which is upon thee and put upon them, and they shall bear with thee in the burden of the people, and so shalt thou not bear alone.

Ye shall not eat one day only, either two or five days, either ten or twenty days:

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Is the LORD's hand waxed short? Thou shalt see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not."

But there remained two of the men in the host: the one called Eldad, and the other Medad. And the spirit rested upon them for they were of them that were written, but they went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the host.

And the people stood up all that night and on the morrow, and gathered quails. And he that gathered the least, gathered ten homers full. And they killed them round about the host.

And they said, "Doth the LORD speak only through Moses? Doth he not speak also by us?" And the LORD heard it.

But my servant Moses is not so, which is faithful in all mine house.

Unto him I speak mouth to mouth and he seeth the sight and the fashion of the LORD, and not through riddles. Wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?"

he said unto Moses, "Oh I beseech thee my lord, put not the sin upon us which we have foolishly committed and sinned.

Oh, let her not be as one that came dead out of his mother's womb: for half her flesh is eaten away."

And the LORD said unto Moses, "If her father had spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? Let her be shut out of the host seven days, and after that let her be received in again."

And Miriam was shut out of the host seven days: and the people removed not, till she was brought in again.

and what manner of land it is, whether it be fat or lean, and whether there be trees therein or not. And be of a good courage, and bring of the fruits of the land." And it was about the time that grapes are first ripe.

But the men that went up with him said, "We be not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we."

And the multitude cried out, and the people wept throughout that night,

Wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land to fall upon the sword, that both our wives, and also our children should be a prey? Is it not better that we return unto Egypt again?"

But in any wise, rebel not against the LORD. Moreover fear ye not the people of the land, for they are but bread for us. Their shield is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not therefore."

And it will be told to the inhabiters of this land also, for they have heard likewise, that thou the LORD art among this people, and that thou art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them and that thou goest before them by day time in a pillar of cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.

'Because the LORD was not able to bring in this people into the land which he swore unto them, therefore he slew them in the wilderness.'

For of all those men which have seen my glory and my miracles which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have tempted me now this ten times and have not hearkened unto my voice,

there shall not one see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that railed upon me, see it.

And Moses said, "Wherefore will ye go on this manner beyond the word of the LORD? It will not come well to pass:

go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not slain before your enemies.
