Say to the children of Israel, I am the Lord your God.

But you are to be guided by my decisions and keep my rules, and be guided by them: I am the Lord your God.

And you may not make any of your children go through the fire as an offering to Molech, and you may not put shame on the name of your God: I am the Lord.

For all those who do any of these disgusting things will be cut off from among their people.

So then, keep my orders, so that you may not do any of these disgusting things which were done before you, or make yourselves unclean through them: I am the Lord your God.

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 as for anyone who takes it for food, his sin will be on him, for he has put shame on the holy thing of the Lord: he will be cut off from his people.

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.

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

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 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.

But in the fifth year you may take the fruit and the increase of it for your food: I am the Lord your God.

The ends of the hair round your face and on your chin may not be cut off.

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.

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.

Have true scales, true weights and measures for all things: I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt;

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.

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 whoever goes after those who make use of spirits and wonder-workers, doing evil with them, against him will my face be turned, and he will be cut off from among his people.

So make and keep yourselves holy, for I am the Lord your God.

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.

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.

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.

He may not go out of the holy place or make the holy place of his God common; for the crown of the holy oil of his God is on him: I am the Lord.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

And if you say, Where will our food come from in the seventh year, when we may not put in seed, or get in the increase

And in the eighth year you will put in your seed, and get your food from the old stores, till the fruit of the ninth year is ready.

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.

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 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.

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

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.

Take no interest from him, in money or in goods, but have the fear of your God before you, and let your brother make a living among you.

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.

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

But you may get servants as property from among the nations round about; from them you may take men-servants and women-servants.

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.

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.

And I will be present among you and will be your God and you will be my people.

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.

But for all that, when they are in the land of their haters I will not let them go, or be turned away from them, or give them up completely; my agreement with them will not be broken, for I am the Lord their God.

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.

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 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 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.

And if a man gives to the Lord a field which he has got for money from another, which is not part of his heritage;

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.

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.

Any man given completely to the Lord may not be got back: he is certainly to be put to death.

And if a man has a desire to get back any of the tenth part which he has given, let him give a fifth more.

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.

From Gad, Eliasaph, the son of Reuel;

And they got together all the people on the first day of the second month; and everyone made clear his family and his father's house, by the number of the names, from twenty years old and over.

The generations of the sons of Gad were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

Forty-five thousand, six hundred and fifty of the tribe of Gad were numbered.

Then the tribe of Gad, with Eliasaph, son of Reuel, as their chief.

Do not let the family of the Kohathites be cut off from among the Levites;

If the spirit of doubt comes into her husband's heart, and he has doubts of his wife, with good cause; or if he has doubts of her without cause:

All the time he is under his oath let no blade come near his head; till the days while he is separate are ended he is holy and his hair may not be cut.

He may not make himself unclean for his father or his mother, his sister or his brother, if death comes to them; because he is under an oath to keep himself separate for God.

If death comes suddenly to a man at his side, so that he becomes unclean, let his hair be cut off on the day when he is made clean, on the seventh day.
