1Later, the LORD instructed Moses, 1The LORD instructed Moses: "
2"Tell the Israelis that 2Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land I am giving you to settle in,
3when you enter the land where you'll be living that I'm about to give you, you are to make an offering by fire to the LORD, either a burnt offering, a sacrificial offering to fulfill a vow, or a voluntary offering at the appointed time, to make a pleasing aroma to the LORD either from your cattle or from your flocks. 3and you make a fire offering to the LORD from the herd or flock--either a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow, or as a freewill offering, or at your appointed festivals--to produce a pleasing aroma for the LORD,
4The offeror is to bring the oblation to the LORD, containing one tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with one fourth of a hin of olive oil. 4the one presenting his offering to the LORD must also present a grain offering of two quarts of fine flour mixed with a quart of oil.
5Also prepare one fourth of a hin of wine for a drink offering or for the sacrifice of each lamb.5Prepare a quart of wine as a drink offering with the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb."
6"For a ram, prepare a grain offering consisting of two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one third of a hin of olive oil. 6If you prepare a grain offering with a ram, it must be four quarts of fine flour mixed with a third of a gallon of oil.
7Now as for your drink offering, offer one third of a hin of wine as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.7Also present a third of a gallon of wine for a drink offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD."
8"When you prepare a bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or for peace offerings to the LORD, 8If you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow, or as a fellowship offering to the LORD,
9then the bullock is to be presented accompanied by a meal offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil.9a grain offering of six quarts of fine flour mixed with two quarts of oil must be presented with the bull.
10"As for drink offerings, offer half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire is a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 10Also present two quarts of wine as a drink offering. It is a fire offering of pleasing aroma to the LORD.
11Do this for each bullock, ram, male lamb, or goat. 11This is to be done for each ox, ram, lamb, or goat.
12Depending on the number of offerings that you prepare, do for each one according to their number. 12This is how you must prepare each of them, no matter how many."
13Every native born person is to do these things, bringing an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to the LORD."13Every Israelite is to prepare these things in this way when he presents a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
14"Now, if a resident alien lives with you, or whoever else is with you throughout your generations, let him make an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. Just as you do, so is he to do. 14When a foreigner resides with you or someone else is among you and wants to prepare a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, he is to do exactly as you do throughout your generations.
15There is to be a single standard for your community, one statute for you and the resident alien who lives with you, a long lasting statute throughout your generations. Just as you do, so is the resident alien to do in the presence of the LORD. 15The assembly is to have the same statute for both you and the foreign resident as a permanent statute throughout your generations. You and the foreigner will be alike before the LORD.
16There is to be one law and one ordinance for you and for the resident alien who lives with you."16The same law and the same ordinance will apply to both you and the foreigner who resides with you."
17Then the LORD instructed Moses: 17The LORD instructed Moses: "
18"Tell the Israelis that when they enter the land that I'm about to bring you to, 18Speak to the Israelites and tell them: After you enter the land where I am bringing you,
19when you have eaten some of the bread that the land produces, you are to offer a raised offering to the LORD. 19you are to offer a contribution to the LORD when you eat from the food of the land.
20You are to offer a cake made from the first of your bread dough as a raised offering to the LORD. Offer it as a raised offering right off your threshing floor. 20You are to offer a loaf from your first batch of dough as a contribution; offer it just like a contribution from the threshing floor.
21From then on, throughout your generations give the first of your bread dough to the LORD."21Throughout your generations, you are to give the LORD a contribution from the first batch of your dough."
22"Here's what you are to do when you all go astray and fail to observe all these commands that the LORD had spoken to Moses, 22When you sin unintentionally and do not obey all these commands that the LORD spoke to Moses--
23including anything that the LORD commanded you by the authority of Moses, starting from the day the LORD commanded Moses and continuing through your generations. 23all that the LORD has commanded you through Moses, from the day the LORD issued the commands and onward throughout your generations--
24When anything is done without the knowledge of the congregation, the entire community is to offer one young bull for a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD, along with its meal and drink offerings offered according to procedure, and one male goat for a sin offering. 24and if it was done unintentionally without the community's awareness, the entire community is to prepare one young bull for a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation, and one male goat as a sin offering.
25Then the priest is to make atonement for the entire community of the Israelis, and they will be forgiven for inadvertent sins. They are to bring their offering, an offering made by fire to the LORD, as well as their sin offering, into the LORD's presence on account of their error. 25The priest must then make atonement for the entire Israelite community so that they may be forgiven, for the sin was unintentional. They are to bring their offering, one made by fire to the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD for their unintentional sin.
26Then the entire community of Israel will be forgiven, along with the resident alien who lives among them, since all the people will have sinned inadvertently."26The entire Israelite community and the foreigner who resides among them will be forgiven, since it happened to all the people unintentionally."
27"Now when one person sins inadvertently, then he is to bring a one year old female goat for a sin offering. 27If one person sins unintentionally, he is to present a year-old female goat as a sin offering.
28Then, in the LORD's presence, the priest is to make atonement for the person who sinned inadvertently, that is, to make atonement on his behalf so he may be forgiven. 28The priest must then make atonement before the LORD on behalf of the person who acts in error sinning unintentionally, and when he makes atonement for him, he will be forgiven.
29You are to have a single law for the one who does things inadvertently, whether for the native-born Israeli or for the resident alien who lives among you."29You are to have the same law for the person who acts in error, whether he is an Israelite or a foreigner who lives among you."
30"But if some person acts with a high hand, whether a native-born or a resident alien, he blasphemes God, and that person is to be eliminated from among his people. 30But the person who acts defiantly, whether native or foreign resident, blasphemes the LORD. That person is to be cut off from his people.
31Because he has despised the law of the LORD and has broken his commands, that person is certainly to be eliminated. His iniquity will remain on him."31He will certainly be cut off, because he has despised the LORD's word and broken His command; his guilt remains on him."
32As it was when the Israelis were in the wilderness, they found a man who was gathering wood on the Sabbath day. 32While the Israelites were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day.
33The ones who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and all the people. 33Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the entire community.
34Then they confined him until it could be declared what should be done to him. 34They placed him in custody because it had not been decided what should be done to him.
35Then the LORD told Moses, "The man is certainly to die. The entire community is to stone him to death outside the camp." 35Then the LORD told Moses, "The man is to be put to death. The entire community is to stone him outside the camp."
36So the whole community brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones so that he died, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.36So the entire community brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
37Later, the LORD instructed Moses, 37The LORD said to Moses, "
38"Tell the Israelis that they are to make tassels at the edges of their garments throughout their generations and that they are to put a violet cord on the tassels at the edges of their garments. 38Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout their generations they are to make tassels for the corners of their garments, and put a blue cord on the tassel at each corner.
39That way, when you see the tassel, you'll remember all the commands of the LORD and you'll observe them. Then you won't seek your own interests and desires that lead you to be unfaithful. 39These will serve as tassels for you to look at, so that you may remember all the LORD's commands and obey them and not become unfaithful by following your own heart and your own eyes.
40Therefore, remember to observe all my commands and to be holy in the presence of your God. 40This way you will remember and obey all My commands and be holy to your God.
41I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God."41I am Yahweh your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God; I am Yahweh your God."
