> 19:1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 19:2 Speak unto all the
congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them: Ye shall
be holy; for I the LORD your God am holy. 19:3 Ye shall fear every
man his mother, and his father, and ye shall keep My sabbaths: I am
the LORD your God. 19:4 Turn ye not unto the idols, nor make to
yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.
> 19:5 And
when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto the LORD, ye shall
offer it that ye may be accepted. 19:6 It shall be eaten the same day
ye offer it, and on the morrow; and if aught remain until the third
day, it shall be burnt with fire. 19:7 And if it be eaten at all on
the third day, it is a vile thing; it shall not be accepted. 19:8 But
every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath
profaned the holy thing of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off
from his people.
> 19:9 And when ye reap the harvest of your
land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corner of thy field, neither
shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest. 19:10 And thou shalt
not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather the fallen fruit of
thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the
stranger: I am the LORD your God. 19:11 Ye shall not steal; neither
shall ye deal falsely, nor lie one to another. 19:12 And ye shall not
swear by My name falsely, so that thou profane the name of thy God: I
am the LORD. 19:13 Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbour, nor rob him;
the wages of a hired servant shall not abide with thee all night
until the morning. 19:14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a
stumbling-block before the blind, but thou shalt fear thy God: I am
the LORD. 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; thou
shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor favour the person of
the mighty; but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
19:16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people;
neither shalt thou stand idly by the blood of thy neighbour: I am the
LORD. 19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart; thou shalt
surely rebuke thy neighbour, and not bear sin because of him. 19:18
Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the
children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:
I am the LORD. 19:19 Ye shall keep My statutes. Thou shalt not let
thy cattle gender with a diverse kind; thou shalt not sow thy field
with two kinds of seed; neither shall there come upon thee a garment
of two kinds of stuff mingled together. 19:20 And whosoever lieth
carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, designated for a man, and
not at all redeemed, nor was freedom given her; there shall be
inquisition; they shall not be put to death, because she was not
free. 19:21 And he shall bring his forfeit unto the LORD, unto the
door of the tent of meeting, even a ram for a guilt-offering. 19:22
And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the
guilt-offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned; and
he shall be forgiven for his sin which he hath sinned. 19:23 And when
ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of
trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as forbidden;
three years shall it be as forbidden unto you; it shall not be eaten.
19:24 And in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy, for
giving praise unto the LORD. 19:25 But in the fifth year may ye eat
of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you more richly the
increase thereof: I am the LORD your God. 19:26 Ye shall not eat with
the blood; neither shall ye practise divination nor soothsaying.
19:27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt
thou mar the corners of thy beard. 19:28 Ye shall not make any
cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor imprint any marks upon you:
I am the LORD. 19:29 Profane not thy daughter, to make her a harlot,
lest the land fall into harlotry, and the land become full of
lewdness. 19:30 Ye shall keep My sabbaths, and reverence My
sanctuary: I am the LORD. 19:31 Turn ye not unto the ghosts, nor unto
familiar spirits; seek them not out, to be defiled by them: I am the
LORD your God. 19:32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and
honour the face of the old man, and thou shalt fear thy God: I am the
LORD. 19:33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye
shall not do him wrong. 19:34 The stranger that sojourneth with you
shall be unto you as the home-born among you, and thou shalt love him
as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD
your God. 19:35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in
meteyard, in weight, or in measure. 19:36 Just balances, just
weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD
your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. 19:37 And ye
shall observe all My statutes, and all Mine ordinances, and do them:
I am the LORD.
> 20:1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 20:2 Moreover, thou shalt say
to the children of Israel: Whosoever he be of the children of Israel,
or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed
unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death; the people of the land
shall stone him with stones. 20:3 I also will set My face against
that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he hath
given of his seed unto Molech, to defile My sanctuary, and to profane
My holy name. 20:4 And if the people of the land do at all hide their
eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and put
him not to death; 20:5 then I will set My face against that man, and
against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go astray
after him, to go astray after Molech, from among their people. 20:6
And the soul that turneth unto the ghosts, and unto the familiar
spirits, to go astray after them, I will even set My face against
that soul, and will cut him off from among his people. 20:7 Sanctify
yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am the LORD your God.
20:8 And keep ye My statutes, and do them: I am the LORD who sanctify
you. 20:9 For whatsoever man there be that curseth his father or his
mother shall surely be put to death; he hath cursed his father or his
mother; his blood shall be upon him. 20:10 And the man that
committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth
adultery with his neighbour's wife, both the adulterer and the
adulteress shall surely be put to death. 20:11 And the man that lieth
with his father's wife--he hath uncovered his father's
nakedness--both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood
shall be upon them. 20:12 And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law,
both of them shall surely be put to death; they have wrought
corruption; their blood shall be upon them. 20:13 And if a man lie
with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed
abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be
upon them. 20:14 And if a man take with his wife also her mother, it
is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that
there be no wickedness among you. 20:15 And if a man lie with a
beast, he shall surely be put to death; and ye shall slay the beast.
20:16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto,
thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to
death; their blood shall be upon them. 20:17 And if a man shall take
his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see
her nakedness, and she see his nakedness: it is a shameful thing; and
they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people:
he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
20:18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and
shall uncover her nakedness--he hath made naked her fountain, and she
hath uncovered the fountain of her blood--both of them shall be cut
off from among their people. 20:19 And thou shalt not uncover the
nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister; for he
hath made naked his near kin; they shall bear their iniquity. 20:20
And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife--he hath uncovered his
uncle's nakedness--they shall bear their sin; they shall die
childless. 20:21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is
impurity: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be
childless.
> 20:22 Ye shall therefore keep all My statutes,
and all Mine ordinances, and do them, that the land, whither I bring
you to dwell therein, vomit you not out. 20:23 And ye shall not walk
in the customs of the nation, which I am casting out before you; for
they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them. 20:24 But I
have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it
unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the
LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples. 20:25 Ye
shall therefore separate between the clean beast and the unclean, and
between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your
souls detestable by beast, or by fowl, or by any thing wherewith the
ground teemeth, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean. 20:26
And ye shall be holy unto Me; for I the LORD am holy, and have set
you apart from the peoples, that ye should be Mine.
> 20:27 A
man also or a woman that divineth by a ghost or a familiar spirit,
shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones;
their blood shall be upon them.
