LEVITICUS CHAPTER 21

Leviticus 21:1 And YHWH saith unto Moses, 'Speak unto the priests, sons of Aaron, and thou hast said unto them, For [any] person [a priest] is not defiled among his people,
21:2 except for his relation who [is] near unto him -- for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.
21:3 and for his sister, the virgin, who is near unto him, who hath not been to a man; for her he is defiled.
21:4 'A master [priest] doth not defile himself among his people -- to pollute himself;
21:5 they do not make baldness on their head, and the corner of their beard they do not shave, and in their flesh they do not make a cutting;
21:6 they are holy to their God, and they pollute not the name of their God, for the fire-offerings of YHWH, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.
21:7 'A woman, a harlot, or polluted, they do not take, and a woman cast out from her husband they do not take, for he [is] holy to his God;
21:8 and thou hast sanctified him, for the bread of thy God he is bringing near; he is holy to thee; for holy [am] I, YHWH, sanctifying you.
21:9 'And a daughter of any priest when she polluteth herself by going a-whoring -- her father she is polluting; with fire she is burnt.
Leviticus 21:10 'And the high priest of his brethren, on whose head is poured the anointing oil, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments, his head doth not uncover, nor rend his garments,
21:11 nor beside any dead person doth he come; for his father and for his mother he doth not defile himself;
21:12 nor from the sanctuary doth he go out, nor doth he pollute the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] YHWH.
21:13 'And he taketh a wife in her virginity;
21:14 widow, or cast out, or polluted one -- a harlot -- these he doth not take, but a virgin of his own people he doth take [for] a wife,
21:15 and he doth not pollute his seed among his people; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying him.'
21:16 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
21:17 'Speak unto Aaron, saying, No man of thy seed to their generations in whom there is blemish doth draw near to bring near the bread of his God,
21:18 for no man in whom [is] blemish doth draw near -- a man blind, or lame or dwarfed, or enlarged,
21:19 or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,
Leviticus 21:20 or hump-backed, or a dwarf, or with a mixture in his eye, or a scurvy person, or scabbed, or broken-testicled.
21:21 'No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) doth come nigh to bring near the fire-offerings of YHWH; blemish [is] in him; the bread of his God he doth not come nigh to bring near.
21:22 'Bread of his God -- of the most holy things, and of the holy things -- he doth eat;
21:23 only, unto the vail he doth not enter, and unto the altar he doth not draw nigh; for blemish [is] in him; and he doth not pollute My sanctuaries; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.'
21:24 And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel.

LEVITICUS CHAPTER 22

Leviticus 22:1 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
22:2 'Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and they are separated from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they pollute not My holy name in what they are hallowing to Me; I [am] YHWH.
22:3 'Say unto them, To your generations, any man who draweth near, out of all your seed, unto the holy things which the sons of Israel do sanctify to YHWH, and his uncleanness on him -- even that person hath been cut off from before Me; I [am] YHWH.
22:4 'Any man of the seed of Aaron, and is leprous or hath an issue -- of the holy things he doth not eat till that he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed of copulation goeth out from him,
22:5 or a man who cometh against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness --
22:6 the person who cometh against it -- hath even been unclean till the evening, and doth not eat of the holy things, but hath bathed his flesh with water,
22:7 and the sun hath gone in, and he hath been clean, and afterwards he doth eat of the holy things, for it [is] his food;
22:8 a carcase or torn thing he doth not eat, for uncleanness thereby; I [am] YHWH.
22:9 'And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they pollute it; I [am] YHWH sanctifying them.
Leviticus 22:10 'And no stranger doth eat of the holy thing; a settler of a priest and an hireling doth not eat of the holy thing;
22:11 and when a priest buyeth a person, the purchase of his money, he doth eat of it, also one born in his house; they do eat of his bread.
22:12 'And a priest's daughter, when she is a strange man's, -- she, of the heave-offering of the holy things doth not eat;
22:13 and a priest's daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and hath no seed, and hath turned back unto the house of her father, as [in] her youth, of her father's bread she doth eat; but no stranger doth eat of it.
22:14 'And when a man doth eat of a holy thing through ignorance, then he hath added its fifth part to it, and hath given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;
22:15 and they do not pollute the holy things of the sons of Israel -- that which they lift up to YHWH,
22:16 nor have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.'
22:17 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
22:18 'Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who bringeth near his offering, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to YHWH for a burnt-offering;
22:19 at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;
Leviticus 22:20 nothing in which [is] blemish do ye bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.
22:21 'And when a man bringeth near a sacrifice of peace-offerings to YHWH, to complete a vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it;
22:22 blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed -- ye do not bring these near to YHWH, and a fire-offering ye do not make of them on the altar to YHWH.
22:23 'As to an ox or a sheep enlarged or dwarfed -- a willing-offering ye do make it, but for a vow it is not pleasing.
22:24 As to a bruised, or beaten, or enlarged, or cut thing -- ye do not bring [it] near to YHWH; even in your land ye do not do it.
22:25 And from the hand of a son of a stranger ye do not bring near the bread of your God, of any of these, for their corruption [is] in them; blemish [is] in them; they are not pleasing for you.'
22:26 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
22:27 'When ox or lamb or goat is born, and it hath been seven days under its dam, then from the eighth day and henceforth, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to YHWH;
22:28 but an ox or sheep -- it and its young one, ye do not slaughter in one day.
22:29 'And when ye sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to YHWH, at your pleasure ye do sacrifice,
Leviticus 22:30 on that day it is eaten, ye do not leave of it till morning; I [am] YHWH;
22:31 and ye have kept my commands, and have done them; I [am] YHWH;
22:32 and ye do not pollute My holy name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you,
22:33 who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I [am] YHWH.'

LEVITICUS CHAPTER 23

Leviticus 23:1 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
23:2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Appointed seasons of YHWH, which ye proclaim, holy convocations, [are] these: they [are] My appointed seasons:
23:3 six days is work done, and in the seventh day [is] a sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye do no work; it [is] a sabbath to YHWH in all your dwellings.
23:4 'These [are] appointed seasons of YHWH, holy convocations, which ye proclaim in their appointed seasons:
23:5 in the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the evenings, [is] the passover to YHWH;
23:6 and on the fifteenth day of this month [is] the feast of unleavened things to YHWH; seven days unleavened things ye do eat;
23:7 on the first day ye have a holy convocation, ye do no servile work;
23:8 and ye have brought near a fire-offering to YHWH seven days; in the seventh day [is] a holy convocation; ye do no servile work.'
23:9 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:10 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, and have reaped its harvest, and have brought in the sheaf, the beginning of your harvest unto the priest,
23:11 then he hath waved the sheaf before YHWH for your acceptance; on the morrow of the sabbath doth the priest wave it.
23:12 'And ye have prepared in the day of your waving the sheaf a lamb, a perfect one, a son of a year, for a burnt-offering to YHWH,
23:13 and its present two tenth deals of flour mixed with oil, a fire-offering to YHWH, a sweet fragrance, and its drink-offering, wine, a fourth of the hin.
23:14 'And bread and roasted corn and full ears ye do not eat until this self-same day, until your bringing in the offering of your God -- a statute age-during to your generations, in all your dwellings.
23:15 'And ye have numbered to you from the morrow of the sabbath, from the day of your bringing in the sheaf of the wave-offering: they are seven perfect sabbaths;
23:16 unto the morrow of the seventh sabbath ye do number fifty days, and ye have brought near a new present to YHWH;
23:17 out of your dwellings ye bring in bread of a wave-offering, two [loaves], of two tenth deals of flour they are, [with] yeast they are baken, first-[fruits] to YHWH.
23:18 'And ye have brought near, besides the bread, seven lambs, perfect ones, sons of a year, and one bullock, a son of the herd, and two rams; they are a burnt-offering to YHWH, with their present and their libations, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to YHWH.
23:19 'And ye have prepared one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and two lambs, sons of a year, for a sacrifice of peace-offerings,
Leviticus 23:20 and the priest hath waved them, besides the bread of the first-[fruits] -- a wave-offering before YHWH, besides the two lambs; they are holy to YHWH for the priest;
23:21 and ye have proclaimed on this self-same day: a holy convocation is to you, ye do no servile work -- a statute age-during in all your dwellings, to your generations.
23:22 'And in your reaping the harvest of your land thou dost not complete the corner of thy field in thy reaping, and the gleaning of thy harvest thou dost not gather, to the poor and to the sojourner thou dost leave them; I YHWH [am] your God.'
23:23 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
23:24 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, ye have a sabbath, a memorial of shouting, a holy convocation;
23:25 ye do no servile work, and ye have brought near a fire-offering to YHWH.'
23:26 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
23:27 'Only -- on the tenth of this seventh month is a day of atonements; ye have a holy convocation, and ye have humbled yourselves, and have brought near a fire-offering to YHWH;
23:28 and ye do no work in this self-same day, for it is a day of atonements, to make atonement for you, before YHWH your God.
23:29 'For any person who is not humbled in this self-same day hath even been cut off from his people;
Leviticus 23:30 and any person who doth any work in this self-same day I have even destroyed that person from the midst of his people;
23:31 ye do no work -- a statute age-during to your generations in all your dwellings.
23:32 It [is] a sabbath of rest to you, and ye have humbled yourselves in the ninth of the month at even; from evening till evening ye do keep your sabbath.'
23:33 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
23:34 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the fifteenth day of this seventh month [is] a feast of booths seven days to YHWH;
23:35 on the first day [is] a holy convocation, ye do no servile work,
23:36 seven days ye bring near a fire-offering to YHWH, on the eighth day ye have a holy convocation, and ye have brought near a fire-offering to YHWH; it [is] a restraint, ye do no servile work.
23:37 'These [are] appointed seasons of YHWH, which ye proclaim holy convocations, to bring near a fire-offering to YHWH, a burnt-offering, and a present, a sacrifice, and libations, a thing of a day in its day,
23:38 apart from the sabbaths of YHWH, and apart from your gifts, and apart from all your vows, and apart from all your willing-offerings, which ye give to YHWH.
23:39 'Only -- in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, in your gathering the increase of the land, ye do keep the feast of YHWH seven days; on the first day [is] a sabbath, and on the eighth day a sabbath;
Leviticus 23:40 and ye have taken to yourselves on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palms, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of a brook, and have rejoiced before YHWH your God seven days.
23:41 'And ye have kept it a feast to YHWH, seven days in a year -- a statute age-during to your generations; in the seventh month ye keep it a feast.
23:42 'In booths ye dwell seven days; all who are natives in Israel dwell in booths,
23:43 so that your generations do know that in booths I caused the sons of Israel to dwell; in my bringing them out of the land of Egypt; I, YHWH, [am] your God.'
23:44 And Moses speaketh [concerning] the appointed seasons of YHWH unto the sons of Israel.

LEVITICUS CHAPTER 24

Leviticus 24:1 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
24:2 'Command the sons of Israel, and they bring unto thee pure olive oil, beaten, for the lamp, to cause a light to go up continually;
24:3 at the outside of the vail of the testimony in the tent of meeting doth Aaron arrange it from evening till morning before YHWH continually -- a statute age-during to your generations;
24:4 by the pure candlestick he doth arrange the lights before YHWH continually.
24:5 'And thou hast taken flour, and hast baked twelve cakes with it, two tenth deals are in the one cake,
24:6 and thou hast set them two ranks (six in the rank) on the pure table before YHWH,
24:7 and thou hast put on the rank pure frankincense, and it hath been to the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering to YHWH.
24:8 'On each sabbath-day he arrangeth it before YHWH continually, from the sons of Israel -- a covenant age-during;
24:9 and it hath been to Aaron, and to his sons, and they have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] most holy to him, from the fire-offerings of YHWH -- a statute age-during.'
Leviticus 24:10 And a son of an Israelitish woman goeth out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man), in the midst of the sons of Israel, and strive in the camp do the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel,
24:11 and the son of the Israelitish woman execrateth the Name, and revileth; and they bring him in unto Moses; and his mother's name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
24:12 and he causeth him to rest in charge -- to explain to them by the mouth of YHWH.
24:13 And YHWH speaketh unto Moses, saying,
24:14 'Bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the company have stoned him.
24:15 'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost speak, saying, When any man revileth his God -- then he hath borne his sin;
24:16 and he who is execrating the name of YHWH is certainly put to death; all the company do certainly cast stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, is put to death.
24:17 'And when a man smiteth any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
24:18 'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, body for body.
24:19 'And when a man putteth a blemish in his fellow, as he hath done so it is done to him;
Leviticus 24:20 breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he putteth a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
24:21 'And he who smiteth a beast repayeth it, and he who smiteth [the life of] man is put to death;
24:22 one judgment is to you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I [am] YHWH your God.'
24:23 And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones; and the sons of Israel have done as YHWH hath commanded Moses.
