< Numbers 15 >

1 Then Yahweh told Moses/me,
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
2 “Tell this to the Israeli people: When you arrive in the land that I am giving to you,
Speak to [the] people of Israel and you will say to them that you will go into [the] land of dwelling places your which I [am] about to give to you.
3 you must offer to me special sacrifices which will be pleasing to me [when the priest burns them on the altar]. Some of them may be offerings that will be completely burned [on the altar]. Some of them may be to indicate that you have made a solemn promise to me. Some of them may be offerings that you yourselves have decided to make. Some of them may be offerings at one of the festivals that you celebrate each year. These offerings may be taken from your herds [of cattle] or from your flocks [of sheep and goats].
And you will make a fire offering to Yahweh a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a vow or a freewill offering or at appointed feasts your to make an odor of soothing to Yahweh from the herd or from the flock.
4 When you give these offerings, you must also bring to me a grain offering of two quarts/liters of nice flour mixed with one quart/liter of [olive] oil.
And he will bring near the [one who] brings near offering his to Yahweh a grain offering fine flour one tenth [of an ephah] mixed with [the] fourth of hin oil.
5 When you offer a lamb to be a sacrifice to be completely burned, you must also pour on the altar one quart/liter of wine.
And wine for the drink offering fourth of hin you will offer with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice for the lamb one.
6 ‘When you offer a ram to be a sacrifice, you must also bring an offering of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with (a third of a gallon/1.3 liters) of [olive] oil.
Or for the ram you will offer a grain offering fine flour two tenths [of an ephah] mixed with oil third of hin.
7 And also pour on the altar (a third of a gallon/1.3 liters) of wine. While they are being burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me.
And wine for the drink offering third of hin you will bring near an odor of soothing to Yahweh.
8 ‘Sometimes you will offer a young bull to be completely burned on the altar. Sometimes you will offer a sacrifice to indicate that you have made a solemn promise to me. Sometimes you will offer a sacrifice to maintain fellowship with me.
And if you will offer a young one of cattle a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a vow or peace offerings to Yahweh.
9 When you offer these sacrifices, you must also offer a grain offering of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with two quarts/liters of [olive] oil.
And he will bring near with [the] young one of cattle a grain offering fine flour three tenths [of an ephah] mixed with oil half of hin.
10 Also pour on the altar two quarts/liters of wine to be an offering. While those special gifts are being burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me.
And wine you will bring near for the drink offering half of hin a fire offering of an odor of soothing to Yahweh.
11 Each time someone offers a bull or a ram or a male lamb or a young goat to be a sacrifice, it must be done that way.
Thus it will be done for the bull one or for the ram one or for the small livestock among the lambs or among the kids.
12 You must obey these instructions for each animal that you bring to me for an offering.
According to the number which you will offer thus you will do for the one according to number their.
13 ‘All of you people who have been Israelis all of your lives must obey these regulations when you offer sacrifices that will be pleasing to me when they are burned on the altar.
Every native-born he will do thus these [things] to bring near a fire offering of an odor of soothing to Yahweh.
14 If any foreigners visit you or live among you, if they also want to bring a sacrifice that will be pleasing to me when it is burned on the altar, they must obey these same instructions.
And if he will sojourn with you a sojourner or [one] who [is] among midst of you to generations your and he will offer a fire offering of an odor of soothing to Yahweh just as you do so he will do.
15 I consider that those who have always been Israelis and those who are foreigners are equal, and so they must all obey the same instructions. All of your descendants must also continue to obey these instructions.
The assembly a statute one [will belong] to you and to the sojourner who sojourns a statute of perpetuity to generations your as you as the sojourner it will be before Yahweh.
16 You Israelis and the foreigners who live among you must all obey the same instructions.”
A law one and judgment one it will belong to you and to the sojourner who sojourns with you.
17 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
18 “Tell these instructions to the Israeli people: [Yahweh says this]: ‘When you arrive in the land to which I am taking you,
Speak to [the] people of Israel and you will say to them when come you into the land where I [am] about to bring you there.
19 and you eat the crops that are growing there, you must set some of them aside to be a sacred offering to me.
And it will be when eat you from [the] food of the land you will offer up a contribution to Yahweh.
20 [Each year] set aside some of the first grain that you gather after you have threshed it. Bake a loaf of bread from the first flour that you grind and bring it to me to be a sacred offering.
[the] first of Dough your a cake you will offer up a contribution like a contribution of [the] threshing floor so you will offer up it.
21 Every year, you and your descendants must continue to make and bring to me [a loaf of bread baked] [MTY] [with flour] from the first part of the grain that you harvest.’”
Some of [the] first of dough your you will give to Yahweh a contribution to generations your.
22 “‘There may be times when you Israelis do not obey all these instructions that I have given to Moses to tell you, but not because you intended to disobey them.
And if you will err and not you will observe all the commandments these which he has spoken Yahweh to Moses.
23 There may be times when some of your descendants do not obey all these instructions that I have given to Moses to tell to you.
All that he has commanded Yahweh to you by [the] hand of Moses from the day when he commanded Yahweh and onwards to generations your.
24 If you or they sin [by forgetting to obey these instructions] and none of the Israeli people realize that they were doing that, one young bull as an offering for all the people [must be brought to the priest]. That will be pleasing to me [when it is burned on the altar]. They must also bring to me a grain offering and an offering of wine, and a male goat, to be sacrificed to enable me to forgive them for the sins they have committed.
And it will be if away from [the] eyes of the congregation it was done to inadvertence and they will offer all the congregation a young bull a young one of cattle one to a burnt offering to an odor of soothing to Yahweh and grain offering its and drink offering its according to the ordinance and a male goat of goats one to a sin offering.
25 [By offering these sacrifices], the priest will make atonement for all of you Israeli people. Then, as a result of their bringing to me an offering to be burned [on the altar], (you will be forgiven/I will forgive you), because you sinned without realizing that you were sinning.
And he will make atonement the priest on all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel and it will be forgiven to them for [was] inadvertence it and they they have brought offering their a fire offering to Yahweh and sin offering their before Yahweh on inadvertence their.
26 You Israeli people and the foreigners who are living among you will all be forgiven.
And it will be forgiven to all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel and to the sojourner who sojourns in midst of them for to all the people by inadvertence.
27 If one person commits a sin without realizing that he was sinning, that person must bring to me a female goat to be an offering to enable me to forgive that person for the sins that person has committed.
And if a person one it will sin by inadvertence and it will bring near a female goat a daughter of year its to a sin offering.
28 The priest will offer it to be a sacrifice to remove the guilt of that person, and that person will be forgiven.
And he will make atonement the priest on the person who has gone astray by sin by inadvertence before Yahweh to make atonement on him and it will be forgiven to him.
29 You Israelis and all the foreigners who live among you must obey these same instructions.
The native-born among [the] people of Israel and to the sojourner who sojourns in midst of them a law one it will belong to you for the [one who] acts by inadvertence.
30 But those who disobey my commands (deliberately/because they want to), both Israelis and the foreigners who live among you, have sinned against me [by doing that]. So (they must be expelled/you must expel them) from your camp.
And the person who it will act - with a hand raised one of the native-born and one of the sojourner[s] Yahweh he [is] blaspheming and it will be cut off the person that from [the] midst people its.
31 They have despised my commands and deliberately disobeyed them, so they must be punished for their sin by not being allowed to live among you any more.’”
For [the] word of Yahweh he has despised and commandment his he has broken certainly - it will be cut off the person that iniquity its [will be] on it.
32 One day, while the Israelis were in the desert, some of them saw a man who was gathering firewood on the Sabbath/rest day.
And they were [the] people of Israel in the wilderness and they found a man gathering wood on [the] day of the sabbath.
33 Those who saw him doing that brought him to Aaron and Moses/me and the rest of the Israeli people.
And they brought near him the [ones who] found him gathering wood to Moses and to Aaron and to all the congregation.
34 They guarded him carefully, because they did not know what to do [to punish] him.
And they left him in custody for not it had been decided what? will it be done to him.
35 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The man must be executed. All of you must [kill him by throwing] stones at him outside the camp.”
And he said Yahweh to Moses certainly he will be put to death the man it will stone him with stones all the congregation from [the] outside of the camp.
36 So they all took the man outside the camp and killed him by throwing stones at him, as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me that they should do.
And they brought out him all the congregation to from [the] outside of the camp and they stoned him with stones and he died just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
37 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
And he said Yahweh to Moses saying.
38 “Tell this to the Israeli people: You and all your descendants must [twist threads together to] make tassels, and then attach them with blue cords to the bottom edges of your clothes.
Speak to [the] people of Israel and you will say to them and they will make for themselves tassel[s] on [the] corners of clothes their to generations their and they will put on [the] tassel[s] of the corner a cord of violet stuff.
39 When you look at the tassels, you will remember all the instructions that I gave to you, and you will obey them, instead of doing what you desire and as a result causing yourselves to become unacceptable to me.
And it will become for you tassel[s] and you will see it and you will remember all [the] commandments of Yahweh and you will observe them and not you will go about after own heart your and after own eyes your which you [are] acting as prostitutes after them.
40 Seeing those tassels will help you to remember that you must obey all my commands and that you must be (my holy people/dedicated to me).
So that you may remember and you will observe all commandments my and you will be holy to God your.
41 Do not forget that I am Yahweh, your God. I am the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you might belong to me. I am Yahweh, your God.”
I [am] Yahweh God your who I brought out you from [the] land of Egypt to become for you God I [am] Yahweh God your.
