| 1The LORD said to Moses, | 1Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
| 2"Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'After you enter the land I am giving you as a home | 2"Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'When you enter the land where you are to live, which I am giving you, |
| 3and you present to the LORD food offerings from the herd or the flock, as an aroma pleasing to the LORD--whether burnt offerings or sacrifices, for special vows or freewill offerings or festival offerings-- | 3then make an offering by fire to the LORD, a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a special vow, or as a freewill offering or in your appointed times, to make a soothing aroma to the LORD, from the herd or from the flock. |
| 4then the person who brings an offering shall present to the LORD a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with a quarter of a hin of olive oil. | 4The one who presents his offering shall present to the LORD a grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of oil, |
| 5With each lamb for the burnt offering or the sacrifice, prepare a quarter of a hin of wine as a drink offering. | 5and you shall prepare wine for the drink offering, one-fourth of a hin, with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb. |
| 6"'With a ram prepare a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with a third of a hin of olive oil, | 6Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil; |
| 7and a third of a hin of wine as a drink offering. Offer it as an aroma pleasing to the LORD. | 7and for the drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
| 8"'When you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice, for a special vow or a fellowship offering to the LORD, | 8'When you prepare a bull as a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a special vow, or for peace offerings to the LORD, |
| 9bring with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with half a hin of olive oil, | 9then you shall offer with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-half a hin of oil; |
| 10and also bring half a hin of wine as a drink offering. This will be a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD. | 10and you shall offer as the drink offering one-half a hin of wine as an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
| 11Each bull or ram, each lamb or young goat, is to be prepared in this manner. | 11'Thus it shall be done for each ox, or for each ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the goats. |
| 12Do this for each one, for as many as you prepare. | 12'According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do for everyone according to their number. |
| 13"'Everyone who is native-born must do these things in this way when they present a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD. | 13'All who are native shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
| 14For the generations to come, whenever a foreigner or anyone else living among you presents a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, they must do exactly as you do. | 14If an alien sojourns with you, or one who may be among you throughout your generations, and he wishes to make an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD, just as you do so he shall do. |
| 15The community is to have the same rules for you and for the foreigner residing among you; this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You and the foreigner shall be the same before the LORD: | 15As for the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the alien who sojourns with you, a perpetual statute throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the alien be before the LORD. |
| 16The same laws and regulations will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing among you.'" | 16'There is to be one law and one ordinance for you and for the alien who sojourns with you.'" |
| 17The LORD said to Moses, | 17Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
| 18"Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'When you enter the land to which I am taking you | 18"Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'When you enter the land where I bring you, |
| 19and you eat the food of the land, present a portion as an offering to the LORD. | 19then it shall be, that when you eat of the food of the land, you shall lift up an offering to the LORD. |
| 20Present a loaf from the first of your ground meal and present it as an offering from the threshing floor. | 20'Of the first of your dough you shall lift up a cake as an offering; as the offering of the threshing floor, so you shall lift it up. |
| 21Throughout the generations to come you are to give this offering to the LORD from the first of your ground meal. | 21'From the first of your dough you shall give to the LORD an offering throughout your generations. |
| 22"'Now if you as a community unintentionally fail to keep any of these commands the LORD gave Moses-- | 22'But when you unwittingly fail and do not observe all these commandments, which the LORD has spoken to Moses, |
| 23any of the LORD's commands to you through him, from the day the LORD gave them and continuing through the generations to come-- | 23even all that the LORD has commanded you through Moses, from the day when the LORD gave commandment and onward throughout your generations, |
| 24and if this is done unintentionally without the community being aware of it, then the whole community is to offer a young bull for a burnt offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, along with its prescribed grain offering and drink offering, and a male goat for a sin offering. | 24then it shall be, if it is done unintentionally, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one bull for a burnt offering, as a soothing aroma to the LORD, with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for a sin offering. |
| 25The priest is to make atonement for the whole Israelite community, and they will be forgiven, for it was not intentional and they have presented to the LORD for their wrong a food offering and a sin offering. | 25'Then the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and they will be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering by fire to the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD, for their error. |
| 26The whole Israelite community and the foreigners residing among them will be forgiven, because all the people were involved in the unintentional wrong. | 26So all the congregation of the sons of Israel will be forgiven, with the alien who sojourns among them, for it happened to all the people through error. |
| 27"'But if just one person sins unintentionally, that person must bring a year-old female goat for a sin offering. | 27'Also if one person sins unintentionally, then he shall offer a one year old female goat for a sin offering. |
| 28The priest is to make atonement before the LORD for the one who erred by sinning unintentionally, and when atonement has been made, that person will be forgiven. | 28'The priest shall make atonement before the LORD for the person who goes astray when he sins unintentionally, making atonement for him that he may be forgiven. |
| 29One and the same law applies to everyone who sins unintentionally, whether a native-born Israelite or a foreigner residing among you. | 29You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the sons of Israel and for the alien who sojourns among them. |
| 30"'But anyone who sins defiantly, whether native-born or foreigner, blasphemes the LORD and must be cut off from the people of Israel. | 30But the person who does anything defiantly, whether he is native or an alien, that one is blaspheming the LORD; and that person shall be cut off from among his people. |
| 31Because they have despised the LORD's word and broken his commands, they must surely be cut off; their guilt remains on them.'" | 31Because he has despised the word of the LORD and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt will be on him.'" |
| 32While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day. | 32Now while the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering wood on the sabbath day. |
| 33Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, | 33Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation; |
| 34and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him. | 34and they put him in custody because it had not been declared what should be done to him. |
| 35Then the LORD said to Moses, "The man must die. The whole assembly must stone him outside the camp." | 35Then the LORD said to Moses, "The man shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp." |
| 36So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD commanded Moses. | 36So all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 37The LORD said to Moses, | 37The LORD also spoke to Moses, saying, |
| 38"Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'Throughout the generations to come you are to make tassels on the corners of your garments, with a blue cord on each tassel. | 38"Speak to the sons of Israel, and tell them that they shall make for themselves tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they shall put on the tassel of each corner a cord of blue. |
| 39You will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes. | 39"It shall be a tassel for you to look at and remember all the commandments of the LORD, so as to do them and not follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you played the harlot, |
| 40Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God. | 40so that you may remember to do all My commandments and be holy to your God. |
| 41I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God.'" | 41"I am the LORD your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt to be your God; I am the LORD your God." |
