He shall also do with the bull just as he did with the bull of the sin offering; thus he shall do the same with it. So the priest shall make atonement for them, and they will be forgiven. |
| 4:21 |
Then he is to bring out the bull out to a place outside the camp and burn it just as he burned the first bull; it is the sin offering for the assembly. |
| 4:22 |
‘When a leader sins and unintentionally does any one of all the things which the Lord his God has commanded not to be done, and he becomes guilty, |
| 4:23 |
if his sin which he has committed is made known to him, he shall bring foras his offering a goat, a male without defect. |

| 4:29 |
HeAnd he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slayslaughter the sin offering at the place of the burnt offering. |

The priest shall then take some of its blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and all the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar. |
| 4:31 |
Then he shall remove all its fat, just as the fat was removed from the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall offer it up in smoke on the altar foras a soothing aroma to the Lord. ThusSo the priest shall make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven. |
| 4:32 |

ThusSo the priest shall make atonement for him inregarding regard to his sin which he has committed, and he will be forgiven. |
| 5:1 |
‘Now if a person sins after he hears a public adjurationorder to testify when he is a witness, whether he has seen or otherwise known, if he does not tell it, then he will bear his guiltpunishment. |
| 5:2 |
Or if a person touches any unclean thing, whether a carcass of an unclean beastanimal, or the carcass of unclean cattle, or a carcass of unclean swarming things, though it is hidden from him and he is unclean, then he will be guilty. |
| 5:4 |
Or if a person swears thoughtlessly with his lips to do evil or to do good, in whatever matter apeople man may speak thoughtlessly with an oath, and it is hidden from him, and then he comes to know it, he will be guilty inof one of these things. |
| 5:5 |
So it shall be when he becomes guilty inof one of these things, that he shall confess that in which he has sinned. |
| 5:7 |
‘But if he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring to the Lord his guilt offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves or two young pigeonsdoves, one foras a sin offering and the other foras a burnt offering. |
| 5:8 |
He shall bring them to the priest, who shall first offer first that which is for the sin offering, and shall nippinch off its head at the front of its neck, but he shall not sever it. |
| 5:11 |
‘But if his means are insufficient for two turtledoves or two young pigeonsdoves, then for his offering for that which he has sinned, he shall bring the tenth of an ephah of fine flour foras a sin offering; he shall not put oil on it or place incense on it, for it is a sin offering. |
| 5:15 |
“If a person acts unfaithfully and sins unintentionally against the Lord’s holy things, then he shall bring his guilt offering to the Lord: a ram without defect from the flock, according to your valuationassessment in silver by shekels, in terms of the shekel of the sanctuary, foras a guilt offering. |
| 5:16 |
HeAnd he shall make restitution for that which he has sinned against the holy thing, and shall add to it a fifth part of it and give it to the priest. The priest shall then make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and it will be forgiven him. |
| 5:17 |
“Now if a person sins and does any of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done, though he was unaware, still he is still guilty and shall bear his punishment. |
| 5:18 |
He is then to bring to the priest a ram without defect from the flock, according to your valuationassessment, foras a guilt offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his errorsin in which he sinnedcommitted unintentionally and did not know it, and it will be forgiven him. |
| 6:1 |
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, |
| 6:2 |
“When a person sins and acts unfaithfully against the Lord, and deceivesdisavows histhe companionrightful inclaim regardof tohis neighbor regarding a deposit or a security entrusted to him, or throughregarding robbery, or if he has extorted from his companionneighbor, |
| 6:3 |
or has found what was lost and lied about it and sworn falsely, so that he sins inregarding regard to any one of the things athat manpeople may do; |
| 6:4 |
then it shall be, when he sins and becomes guilty, that he shall restore what he took by robbery or whatacquired he got by extortion, or the deposit which was entrusted to him, or the lost thingproperty which he found, |
| 6:5 |
or anything about which he swore falsely; he shall make restitution for it in full and add to it one-a fifth more. He shall give it to the one to whom it belongs on the day he presents his guilt offering. |
| 6:6 |
Then he shall bring to the priest his guilt offering to the Lord, a ram without defect from the flock, according to your valuationassessment, foras a guilt offering, |
| 6:8 |
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, |
| 6:10 |
The priest is to put on his linen robe, and he shall put on linen undergarments next to his fleshbody; and he shall take up the fatty ashes to which the fire reduces the burnt offering on the altar and place them beside the altar. |
| 6:11 |
Then he shall take off his garments and put on other garments, and carry the fatty ashes outside the camp to a clean place. |
| 6:16 |
WhatAnd is left of it Aaron and his sons are to eat what is left of it. It shall be eaten as unleavened cakes in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtcourtyard of the tent of meeting. |
| 6:25 |
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: in the place where the burnt offering is slainslaughtered, the sin offering shall be slainslaughtered before the Lord; it is most holy. |
| 6:26 |
The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place, in the courtcourtyard of the tent of meeting. |
| 6:27 |
AnyoneWhoever who touches its flesh will become consecrated; and when any of its blood splashesspatters on a garment, in a holy place you shall wash what wasspattered splashedon onit in a holy place. |
| 6:29 |
Every male among the priests may eat of it; it is most holy. |
| 6:30 |
But no sin offering of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holyHoly placePlace shall be eaten; it shall be burned with fire. |
| 7:2 |
In the place where they slayslaughter the burnt offering they are to slayslaughter the guilt offering, and hethe priest shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar. |
| 7:4 |
and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them, which is on the loins,; and he shall remove the lobe on the liver he shall remove with the kidneys. |
| 7:6 |
Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy. |
| 7:7 |
The guilt offering is like the sin offering,: there is one law for them;. theThe priest who makes atonement with it shall have it. |
| 7:8 |
Also the priest who presents any mananyone’s burnt offering, that priest shall have for himself the skinhide of the burnt offering which he has presented. |
| 7:16 |
But if the sacrifice of his offering is a votivevow or a freewillvoluntary offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice, and on the next day what is left of it may be eaten; |
| 7:18 |
So if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings shouldis ever be eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not be accepted, and it will not be reckonedcredited to his benefithim. It shallwill be an offensiveunclean thing, and the person who eats of it willshall bear his own iniquitypunishment. |
| 7:20 |
But the person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings which belong to the Lord, inwhen hishe uncleannessis unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people. |
| 7:23 |
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘You shall not eat any fat from an ox, a sheep, or a goat. |
| 7:24 |
Also the fat of an animal which dies and the fat of an animal torn by beastsanimals may be put to any other use, but you must certainly are not to eat it. |
| 7:25 |
For whoever eats the fat of the animal from which an offering by fire is offered to the Lord, even the person who eats it shall also be cut off from his people. |
| 7:26 |
YouAnd you are not to eat any blood, either of bird or animal, in any of your dwellings. |
| 7:27 |
Any person who eats any blood, even that person shall also be cut off from his people.’ ” |
| 7:30 |
His own hands are to bring offerings by fire to the Lord. He shall bring the fat with the breast, so that the breast may be presented as a wave offering before the Lord. |
| 7:31 |
TheAnd the priest shall offer up the fat in smoke on the altar, but the breast shall belong to Aaron and to his sons. |
| 7:32 |
YouAnd you shall give the right thigh to the priest as a contribution from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. |
| 7:34 |
For I have taken from the sons of Israel the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution from the sons of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their dueallotted portion forever from the sons of Israel. |
| 7:35 |
‘This is thatthe whichallotment is consecrated to Aaron and thatthe whichallotment is consecrated to his sons from the offerings by fire to the Lord, inon that day when he presented them to serve as priests to the Lord. |
| 7:36 |
These the Lord had commanded to be given them from the sons of Israel inon the day that He anointed them. It is their dueallotted portion forever throughout their generations.’ ” |
| 7:37 |
This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the sin offering and the guilt offering, and the ordination offering and the sacrifice of peace offerings, |
| 7:38 |
which the Lord commanded Moses aton Mount Sinai inon the day that He commanded the sons of Israel to present their offerings to the Lord in the wilderness of Sinai. |
| 8:2 |
“Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams and the basket of unleavened bread, |
| 8:5 |
Moses said to the congregation, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded us to do.” |
| 8:6 |
Then Moses had Aaron and his sons come near, and he washed them with water. |
| 8:7 |
HeThen he put the tunic on himAaron and girdedwrapped himhis waist with the sash, and clothed him with the robe and put the ephod on him; and he girdedwrapped himhis waist with the artistic band of the ephod, with which he tiedfitted it to him. |
| 8:10 |
Moses then took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and alleverything that was in it, and consecrated them. |
| 8:11 |
He also sprinkled some of it on the altar seven times and anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the basin and its stand, to consecrate them. |
| 8:13 |
Next Moses had Aaron’s sons come near, and he clothed them with tunics, and girdedwrapped themtheir waists with sashes, and bound caps on them, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. |
| 8:17 |
But the bull and its hide, and its flesh, and its refuse he burned in the fire outside the camp, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. |
| 8:19 |
And Moses slaughtered it and sprinkled the blood around on the altar. |
| 8:23 |
And Moses slaughtered it and took some of its blood and put it on the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. |
| 8:25 |
He then took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the entrails, and the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat, and the right thigh. |
| 8:26 |
FromAnd from the basket of unleavened bread that was before the Lord, he took one unleavened cake and one cake of bread mixed with oil and one wafer, and placed them on the portions of fat and on the right thigh. |
| 8:27 |
He then put all these on the hands of Aaron and on the hands of his sons, and presented them as a wave offering before the Lord. |
| 8:29 |
Moses also took the breast and presented it foras a wave offering before the Lord; it was Moses’ portion of the ram of ordination, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. |
| 8:30 |
So Moses took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood which was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him; and he consecrated Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and the garments of his sons with him. |
| 8:32 |
TheAnd the remainder of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn in the fire. |
| 8:33 |
YouAnd you shall not go outside the doorway of the tent of meeting for seven days, until the day that the period of your ordination is fulfilled; for he will ordain you through seven days. |
| 8:34 |
The Lord has commanded us to do as has been done this day, to make atonement on your behalf. |
| 8:35 |
At the doorway of the tent of meeting, moreover, you shall remain day and night for seven days and keepfulfill theyour chargeduty ofto the Lord, so that you will not die,; for so I have been commanded.” |
| 8:36 |
Thus Aaron and his sons did all the things which the Lord had commanded through Moses. |
| 9:2 |
and he said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a calf, a bull, foras a sin offering and a ram foras a burnt offering, both without defect, and offer them before the Lord. |
| 9:3 |
Then you shall speak to the sons of Israel you shall speak, saying, ‘Take a male goat foras a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both one year old, without defect, foras a burnt offering, |
| 9:6 |
And Moses said, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the Lord may appear to you.” |
| 9:7 |
Moses then said to Aaron, “Come near to the altar and offer your sin offering and your burnt offering, so that you may make atonement for yourself and for the people; then make the offering for the people, so that you may make atonement for them, just as the Lord has commanded.” |
| 9:9 |
Aaron’s sons then presented the blood to him; and he dipped his finger in the blood and put some on the horns of the altar, and poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. |
| 9:10 |
The fat and the kidneys and the lobe of the liver of the sin offering, he then offered up in smoke on the altar, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. |
| 9:11 |
The flesh and the skinhide, however, he burned with fire outside the camp. |
| 9:12 |
Then he slaughtered the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons handedbrought the blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar. |
| 9:13 |
They handedbrought the burnt offering to him in pieces, with the head, and he offered them up in smoke on the altar. |
| 9:18 |
Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings which was for the people; and Aaron’s sons handedbrought the blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar. |
| 9:19 |
As for the portions of fat from the ox and from the ram, the fat tail, and the fat covering, and the kidneys, and the lobe of the liver, |
| 9:22 |
Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them, and he stepped down after making the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings. |
| 9:23 |
And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting. When they came out and blessed the people, the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people. |
| 9:24 |
Then fire camewent out from before the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the portions of fat on the altar; and when all the people saw it, they shouted and fell onface their facesdownward. |
| 10:1 |
Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took their respective firepans, and after putting fire in them, placed incense on itthe fire and offered strange fire before the Lord, which He had not commanded them. |
| 10:4 |
Moses called also to Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come forward, carry your relatives away from the front of the sanctuary to thean area outside of the camp.” |
| 10:5 |
So they came forward and carried them, still in their tunics, to thean area outside of the camp, just as Moses had said. |
| 10:6 |
Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, so that you willdo not die and that He willdoes not become wrathful against all the congregation. But your kinsmen, the wholeentire house of Israel, shall bewailweep for the burning which the Lord has brought about. |
| 10:9 |
“Do not drink wine or strong drink, neither you nor your sons with you, when you come into the tent of meeting, so that you willdo not die—it is a perpetualpermanent statute throughout your generations— |
| 10:10 |
and so as to make a distinction between the holy and the profane, and between the unclean and the clean, |
| 10:12 |
Then Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his surviving sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that is left over from the Lord’s offerings by fire and eat it as unleavened bread beside the altar, for it is most holy. |
| 10:13 |
You shall eat it, moreover, in a holy place, because it is your dueallotted portion and your sons’ dueallotted outportion offrom the Lord’s offerings by fire; for thusso I have been commanded. |
| 10:14 |
The breast of the wave offering, however, and the thigh of the offering you may eat in a clean place, you and your sons and your daughters with you; for they have been given as your dueallotted portion and your sons’ dueallotted outportion offrom the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the sons of Israel. |
| 10:15 |
TheThey shall bring the thigh offered by lifting up and the breast offered by waving, they shall bring along with the offerings by fire of the portions of fat, to present as a wave offering before the Lord; so it shall be a thing perpetually due you and your sons with you, just as the Lord has commanded.” |
| 10:16 |
But Moses searched carefully for the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it had been burned up! So he was angry with Aaron’s surviving sons Eleazar and Ithamar, saying, |
| 10:17 |
“Why did you not eat the sin offering at the holy place? For it is most holy, and He gave it to you to beartake away the guilt of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord. |
| 10:18 |
Behold, since its blood had not been brought inside, into the sanctuary, you certainly should certainly have eaten it in the sanctuary, just as I commanded.”!” |
| 10:19 |
But Aaron spokesaid to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord. When things like these happened to me, if I had eaten a sin offering today, would it have been good in the sight of the Lord?” |
| 10:20 |
When Moses heard that, it seemedwas good in his sight. |
| 11:3 |
Whatever divideshas a divided hoof, thusshowing making split hoofs, and chews the cud, among the animals, that you may eat. |
| 11:4 |
Nevertheless, you are not to eat of these, among those which chew the cud, or among those which dividehave thea divided hoof: the camel, for though it chews cud, it does not dividehave thea divided hoof,; it is unclean to you. |
| 11:5 |
Likewise, the shaphanrock hyrax, for though it chews cud, it does not dividehave thea divided hoof,; it is unclean to you;. |
| 11:6 |
theThe rabbit also, for though it chews cud, it does not dividehave thea divided hoof,; it is unclean to you;. |
| 11:7 |
andAnd the pig, for though it divideshas thea divided hoof, thusand makingso it shows a split hoof, it does not chew cud,; it is unclean to you. |
| 11:8 |

All of you shall have the sabbathSabbath productsproduce of the land foras food; for yourself, and your male and female slaves, and your hired manworker and your foreign resident, those who live as aliensstrangers withamong you. |
| 25:7 |
Even your cattle and the animals that are in your land shall have all its cropsproduce to eat. |
| 25:8 |
‘You are also to count off seven sabbathsSabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven sabbathsSabbaths of years, namelythat is, forty-nine years. |
| 25:9 |
You shall then sound a ram’s horn abroad on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the dayDay of atonementAtonement you shall sound a horn all through your land. |
| 25:10 |
YouSo you shall thus consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim a release throughthroughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, and each of you shall return to his own property, and each of you shall return to his family. |
| 25:11 |
You shall have the fiftieth year as a jubilee; you shall not sow, nor reapharvest its aftergrowth, nor gather ingrapes from its untrimmed vines. |
| 25:12 |
For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat its cropsproduce outfrom of the field. |
| 25:14 |
IfFurthermore, if you make a sale, moreover, to your friend, or buy from your friend’s hand, you shall not wrong one another. |
| 25:16 |
In proportion to thea extentgreater number of the years you shall increase its price, and in proportion to thefewer fewness of the years you shall diminishdecrease its price, forbecause it is athe number of crops that he is selling to you. |
| 25:18 |
‘You shall thustherefore observefollow My statutes and keep My judgments, so as to carry them out, so that you may live securely on the land. |
| 25:20 |
But if you say, “What are we going to eat onin the seventh year if we do not sow ornor gather in our cropsproduce?” |
| 25:21 |
then I will so order My blessing for you in the sixth year that it will bring forth the cropproduce for three years. |
| 25:22 |
When you are sowing the eighth year, you can still eat old things from the cropproduce, eating the old until the ninth year when its cropproduce comes in. |
| 25:23 |
‘The land, moreover, shall not be sold permanently, forbecause the land is Mine; for you are butonly aliensstrangers and sojournersresidents with Me. |
| 25:24 |
ThusSo for every piece of your property, you are to provide for the redemption of the land. |
| 25:25 |
‘If a fellow countryman of yours becomes so poor that he hassells to sell part of his property, then his nearestclosest kinsmanredeemer is to come and buy back what his relative has sold. |
| 25:26 |
Or in case asomeone man has no kinsmanredeemer, but so recovers his means as to find sufficient means for its redemption, |
| 25:28 |
But if he has not found sufficient means to get it back for himself, then what he has sold shall remain in the hands of its purchaser until the year of jubilee; but at the jubilee it shall revert, so that he may return to his property. |
| 25:29 |
‘Likewise, if a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then his redemption right remains valid until a full year fromafter its sale; his right of redemption lasts a full year. |
| 25:31 |
The houses of the villages, however, which have no surrounding wall, shall be consideredregarded as open fields; they have redemption rights and revert in the jubilee. |
| 25:32 |
As for the cities of the Levites, the Levites have a permanent right of redemption for the houses of the cities which are their possession. |
| 25:33 |
What, therefore, belongs to the Levites may be redeemed, and a house sale in the city of this possession reverts in the jubilee, forbecause the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the sons of Israel. |
| 25:34 |
But pasture fields of their cities shall not be sold, for that is their perpetualpermanent possession. |
| 25:35 |
‘Now in case a countryman of yours becomes poor and his means withamong regard to you falter, then you are to sustain him, like a stranger or a sojournerresident, so that he may live with you. |
| 25:36 |
Do not take usuriousany kind of interest from him, but reverefear your God, so that your countryman may live with you. |
| 25:37 |
You shall not give him your silver at interest, nor your food for gainprofit. |
| 25:38 |
I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God. |
| 25:39 |
‘IfNow if a countryman of yours becomes so poor with regard to you that he sells himself to you, you shall not subject him to a slave’s service. |
| 25:40 |
He shall be with you as a hired manworker, as if he were a sojournerforeign resident; he shall serve with you untilup to the year of jubilee. |
| 25:41 |
He shall then goleave out from you, he and his sons with him, and shall go back to his family, so that he may return to the property of his forefathers. |
| 25:45 |
Then,You too,may italso isacquire outthem offrom the sons of the sojournersforeign residents who livereside as aliens among you that you may gain acquisition, and outfrom of their families who are with you, whom they will have produced in your land; they also may become your possession. |
| 25:46 |
You may evenalso bequeathpass them on as an inheritance to your sons after you, to receive as a possession; you can use them as permanent slaves. But in respect to your countrymen, the sons of Israel, you shall not rule with severity over one another. |
| 25:47 |
‘Now if the means of a stranger or of a sojournerforeign resident with you becomes sufficient, and a countryman of yours becomes so poor within regardrelation to him asand tosells sell himself to a stranger who is sojourningresiding with you, or to the descendants of a stranger’s family, |
| 25:49 |
or his uncle, or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or one of his blood relatives from his family may redeem him; or if he prospers, he may redeem himself. |
| 25:50 |
He then, with his purchaser, shall calculate from the year when he sold himself to him up to the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall correspond to the number of years calculated. It is like the days of a hired manworker that he shallwill be with him. |
| 25:51 |
If there are still many years remaining, he shall refund part of his purchase price in proportion to them for his own redemption; |
| 25:52 |
andbut if few years remain until the year of jubilee, he shall so calculate with him. In proportion to his years he is to refund the amount for his redemption. |
| 25:53 |
LikeHe shall be with him like a manworker hired year by year he shall be with him; he shall not rule over him with severity in your sight. |
| 25:54 |
Even if he is not redeemed by these means, he shall still goleave out in the year of jubilee, he and his sons with him. |
| 26:1 |
‘You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor shall you set up for yourselves ana carved image or a sacredmemorial pillarstone, nor shall you place a figured stone in your land to bow down to it; for I am the Lord your God. |
| 26:2 |
You shall keep My sabbathsSabbaths and reverencerevere My sanctuary; I am the Lord. |
| 26:5 |
Indeed, your threshing season will last for you until grape gathering, and grape gathering will last until sowing time. YouSo you will thus eat your food to the full and live securely in your land. |
| 26:6 |
I shall also grant peace in the land, so that you may lie down, with no one makingto make you trembleafraid. I shall also eliminate harmful beastsanimals from the land, and no sword will pass through your land. |
| 26:7 |
ButInstead, you will chase your enemies, and they will fall before you by the sword; |
| 26:8 |
five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand,; and your enemies will fall before you by the sword. |
| 26:10 |
YouAnd you will eat the old supply, and clear out the old because of the new. |
| 26:13 |
I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so that you would not be their slaves, and I broke the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect. |
| 26:15 |
if, instead, you reject My statutes, and if your soul abhorsloathes My ordinances so as not to carry out all My commandments, andbut sorather to break My covenant, |
| 26:16 |
I, in turn, will do this to you: I will appointsummon over you a sudden terror against you, consumption and fever that will wastemake away the eyes fail and cause the soul to pine awaylanguish; also, you will sow your seed uselessly, for your enemies will eat it up. |
| 26:17 |
And I will set My face against you so that you will be struckdefeated down before your enemies; and those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when no one is pursuing you. |
| 26:19 |
I will also break down your pride of power; and I will also make your sky like iron and your earth like bronze. |
| 26:20 |
Your strength will be spentconsumed uselessly, for your land will not yield its produce and the trees of the land will not yield their fruit. |
| 26:21 |
‘IfYet then,if you actshow with hostility againsttoward Me and are unwilling to obey Me, I will increase the plague on you seven times according to your sins. |
| 26:22 |
I will also let loose among you the beastsanimals of the field, which will bereavedeprive you of your children and destroyeliminate your cattle, and reduce your number so that your roads liebecome deserted. |
| 26:23 |
‘And if by these things you aredo not turnedlearn toyour lesson regarding Me, but actyou withshow hostility againsttoward Me, |
| 26:24 |
then I in turn will actshow with hostility againsttoward you; and I, even I, will strike you seven times for your sins. |
| 26:25 |
I will also bring upon you a sword which will execute vengeance for the covenant; and when you gather together into your cities, I will send pestilencea plague among you, so that you shallwill be deliveredhanded intoover to the enemy hands. |
| 26:28 |
then I will act with wrathful hostility against you, and I, evenfor I,My part will punish you seven times for your sins. |
| 26:29 |
Further, you will eat the flesh of your sons, and you will eat the flesh of your daughters you will eat. |
| 26:30 |
I then will destroy your high places, and cut down your incense altars, and heappile your remains on the remains of your idols, for My soul shallwill abhorloathe you. |
| 26:31 |
I will layturn waste your cities into ruins as well and will make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will not smell your soothing aromas. |
| 26:32 |
And I will make the land desolate so that your enemies who settle in it will be appalled overat it. |
| 26:33 |
You, however, I will scatter among the nations, and I will draw out a sword after you, as your land becomes desolate and your cities become wasteruins. |
| 26:34 |
‘Then the land will enjoyrestore its sabbathsSabbaths all the days of the desolation, while you are in your enemies’ land; then the land will rest and enjoyrestore its sabbathsSabbaths. |
| 26:35 |
All the days of its desolation it will observehave the rest which it did not observehave on your sabbathsSabbaths, while you were living on it. |
| 26:36 |
As for those ofamong you who mayare be left, I will also bring weaknessdespair into their hearts in the lands of their enemies. And the sound of a drivenscattered leaf will chase them, and even when no one is pursuing they will flee as though from the sword, and they will fall. |
| 26:37 |
They will thereforethen stumble over each other as if running from the sword, although no one is pursuing; and you will have no strength to stand up before your enemies. |
| 26:38 |
ButInstead, you will perish among the nations, and your enemies’ land will consume you. |
| 26:39 |
So those of you who may be left will rot away because of their iniquitywrongdoing in the lands of your enemies; and also because of the iniquitieswrongdoing of their forefathers they will rot away with them. |
| 26:40 |
‘IfBut if they confess their iniquitywrongdoing and the iniquitywrongdoing of their forefathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against Me, and also in their acting with hostility against Me— |
| 26:41 |
I also was acting with hostility against them, to bring them into the land of their enemies—or if their uncircumcised heart becomesis humbled so that they then make amends for their iniquitywrongdoing, |
| 26:43 |
For the land will be abandoned by them, and will makerestore up for its sabbathsSabbaths while it is made desolate without them. They, meanwhile, will be making amends for their iniquitywrongdoing, because they rejected My ordinances and their soul abhorredloathed My statutes. |
| 26:44 |
Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, nor will I so abhorloathe them as to destroy them, breaking My covenant with them; for I am the Lord their God. |
| 26:45 |
But I will remember for them the covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, so that I might be their God. I am the Lord.’ ” |
| 26:46 |
These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which the Lord established between Himself and the sons of Israel through Moses aton Mount Sinai. |
| 27:2 |
“Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When asomeone man makes aan difficultexplicit vow, he shall be valued according to your valuationassessment of persons belonging to the Lord. |
| 27:3 |
If your valuationassessment is of thea male from twenty years even to sixty years old, then your valuationassessment shall be fifty shekels of silver, afterby the shekel of the sanctuary. |
| 27:4 |
Or if itthe person is a female, then your valuationassessment shall be thirty shekels. |
| 27:5 |
IfAnd itif bethe person is from five years even to twenty years old, then your valuationassessment for thea male shall be twenty shekels, and for thea female, ten shekels. |
| 27:6 |
But if theythe areperson is from a month even up to five years old, then your valuationassessment shall be five shekels of silver for thea male, and for thea female your valuationassessment shall be three shekels of silver. |
| 27:7 |
If theythe areperson is from sixty years old and upward, if it is a male, then your valuationassessment shall be fifteen shekels, and for thea female, ten shekels. |
| 27:8 |
But if he is poorer than your valuationassessment, then he shall be placedpresented before the priest, and the priest shall valueassess him; according to the means of the one who vowed, the priest shall valueassess him. |
| 27:9 |
‘Now if it is an animal of the kind whichthat menone can present as an offering to the Lord, any such animal that one gives to the Lord shall be holy. |
| 27:10 |
He shall not replace it ornor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; oryet if he does exchange animal for animal, then both it and its substitute shall become holy. |
| 27:11 |
If, however, it is any unclean animal of the kind which menone dodoes not present as an offering to the Lord, then he shall place the animal before the priest. |
| 27:12 |
TheAnd the priest shall valueassess it as either good or bad; as you, the priest, valueassess it, so shall it shall be. |
| 27:13 |
But if he should ever wishwant to redeem it, then he shall add one-a fifth of it to your valuationassessment. |
| 27:14 |
‘Now if asomeone man consecrates his house as holy to the Lord, then the priest shall valueassess it as either good or bad; as the priest valuesassesses it, so shall it shall stand. |
| 27:15 |
Yet if the one who consecrates it should wishwant to redeem his house, then he shall add one-a fifth of your valuationassessment price to it, so that it may be his. |
| 27:16 |
‘Again, if asomeone man consecrates to the Lord part of the fieldsfield of his own property, then your valuationassessment shall be proportionate to the seed needed for it: a homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver. |
| 27:17 |
If he consecrates his field as of the year of jubilee, according to your valuationassessment it shall stand. |
| 27:18 |
If he consecrates his field after the jubilee, however, then the priest shall calculate the price for him proportionate to the years that are left until the year of jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your valuationassessment. |
| 27:19 |
If the one who consecrates it should ever wishwant to redeem the field, then he shall add one-a fifth of your valuationassessment price to it, so that it may passbelong to him. |
| 27:20 |
Yet if he willdoes not redeem the field, but has sold the field to another manperson, it may no longer be redeemed; |
| 27:21 |
and when it reverts in the jubilee, the field shall be holy to the Lord, like a field setbanned apartfrom secular use; it shall be for the priest as his property. |
| 27:23 |
then the priest shall calculate for him the amount of your valuationassessment up to the year of jubilee; and he shall on that day give your valuationassessment as holy to the Lord. |
| 27:25 |
Every valuationassessment of yours, moreover, shall be afterby the shekel of the sanctuary. The shekel shall be twenty gerahs. |
| 27:26 |
‘However, a firstborn among animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no manone may consecrate it; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s. |
| 27:27 |
But if it is among the unclean animals, then he shall redeem it according to your valuationassessment and add to it one-a fifth of it; and if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuationassessment. |
| 27:28 |
‘Nevertheless, anything which asomeone man sets apart to the Lord for destruction out of all that he has, of man or animal or of the fieldsfield of his own property, shall not be sold ornor redeemed. Anything devotedset toapart for destruction is most holy to the Lord. |
| 27:29 |
No one who may have been set apart among menmankind shall be ransomed; he shallmust surely be put to death. |
| 27:30 |
‘ThusNow all the tithe of the land, of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s; it is holy to the Lord. |
| 27:31 |
If, therefore, asomeone manshould wishesever want to redeem part of his tithe, he shall add to it one-a fifth of it. |
| 27:33 |
He is not to be concerned whether it is good or bad, nor shall he exchange it; oryet if he does exchange it, then both it and its substitute shall become holy. It shall not be redeemed.’ ” |
| 27:34 |
These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel aton Mount Sinai. |
