< Leviticus 24 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 “Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
“Command the sons of Israel, and they bring pure oil of beaten olive to you for the lamp, to cause a light to go up continually;
3 Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
Aaron arranges it at the outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, from evening until morning before YHWH continually—a continuous statute throughout your generations;
4 He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before Yahweh continually.
he arranges the lights on the pure lampstand before YHWH continually.
5 “You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenths of an ephah shall be in one cake.
And you have taken flour, and have baked twelve cakes with it, two-tenth parts are in one cake,
6 You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before Yahweh.
and you have set them [in] two rows (six in the row) on the pure table before YHWH,
7 You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
and you have put pure frankincense on the row, and it has been with the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering to YHWH.
8 Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before Yahweh continually. It is an everlasting covenant on the behalf of the children of Israel.
On each Sabbath day he arranges it before YHWH continually, from the sons of Israel—a perpetual covenant;
9 It shall be for Aaron and his sons. They shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire by a perpetual statute.”
and it has been for Aaron and for 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 continuous statute.”
10 The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
And a son of an Israeli woman goes out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man) in the midst of the sons of Israel, and the son of the Israeli woman and a man of Israel strive in the camp,
11 The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
and the son of the Israeli woman execrates the Name and reviles; and they bring him to Moses; and his mother’s name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
12 They put him in custody until Yahweh’s will should be declared to them.
and he causes him to rest in confinement —to explain to them by the mouth of YHWH.
13 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
14 “Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
“Bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the congregation has stoned him.
15 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
And you speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When any man reviles his God—then he has borne his sin;
16 He who blasphemes Yahweh’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.
and he who is execrating the Name of YHWH is certainly put to death; all the congregation certainly casts stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, he is put to death.
17 “‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
And when a man strikes any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
18 He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
And he who strikes a beast repays it, body for body.
19 If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:
And when a man puts a blemish in his fellow, as he has done so it is done to him;
20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he puts a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
21 He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
And he who strikes a beast repays it, and he who strikes [the life of] man is put to death.
22 You shall have one kind of law for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am Yahweh your God.’”
One judgment is for you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I [am] your God YHWH.”
23 Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as Yahweh commanded Moses.
And Moses speaks to the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp, and stone him [with] stone; and the sons of Israel have done as YHWH has commanded Moses.
