Numbers 15
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When you have come into the land of your habitations, which I give to you,
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: After you enter the land that I am giving you as a home
3 and will make an offering by fire to Jehovah, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or as a freewill offering, or in your set feasts, to make a pleasant aroma to Jehovah, of the herd, or of the flock;
and you present an offering made by fire to the LORD from the herd or flock to produce a pleasing aroma to the LORD—either a burnt offering or a sacrifice, for a special vow or freewill offering or appointed feast—
4 then he who offers his offering shall offer to Jehovah a meal offering of a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin of oil:
then the one presenting his offering to the LORD shall also present a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a quarter hin of olive oil.
5 and wine for the drink offering, the fourth part of a hin, you shall prepare with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.
With the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb, you are to prepare a quarter hin of wine as a drink offering.
6 "'Or for a ram, you shall prepare for a meal offering two tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the third part of a hin of oil:
With a ram you are to prepare a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a third of a hin of olive oil,
7 and for the drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin of wine, of a pleasant aroma to Jehovah.
and a third of a hin of wine as a drink offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
8 When you prepare a bull for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or for peace offerings to Jehovah;
When you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice to fulfill a vow or as a peace offering to the LORD,
9 then shall he offer with the bull a meal offering of three tenth parts of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil:
present with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of olive oil.
10 and you shall offer for the drink offering half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Jehovah.
Also present half a hin of wine as a drink offering. It is an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
11 Thus shall it be done for each bull, or for each ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the young goats.
This is to be done for each bull, ram, lamb, or goat.
12 According to the number that you shall prepare, so you shall do to everyone according to their number.
This is how you must prepare each one, no matter how many.
13 "'All who are native-born shall do these things in this way, in offering an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Jehovah.
Everyone who is native-born shall prepare these things in this way when he presents an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
14 If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you, or whoever may be among you throughout your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Jehovah; as you do, so he shall do.
And for the generations to come, if a foreigner residing with you or someone else among you wants to prepare an offering made by fire as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, he is to do exactly as you do.
15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you, and for the stranger who lives among you, a statute forever throughout your generations: as you are, so shall the foreigner be before Jehovah.
The assembly is to have the same statute both for you and for the foreign resident; it is a permanent statute for the generations to come. You and the foreigner shall be the same before the LORD.
16 One law and one ordinance shall be for you, and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner with you.'"
The same law and the same ordinance will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing with you.”
17 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
18 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When you come into the land where I bring you,
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land to which I am bringing you
19 then it shall be that when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up a wave offering to Jehovah.
and you eat the food of the land, you shall lift up an offering to the LORD.
20 Of the first of your dough you shall offer up a cake for a wave offering: as the wave offering of the threshing floor, so you shall heave it.
From the first of your dough, you are to lift up a cake as a contribution; offer it just like an offering from the threshing floor.
21 Of the first of your dough you shall give to Jehovah a wave offering throughout your generations.
Throughout your generations, you are to give the LORD an offering from the first of your dough.
22 "'When you shall err, and not observe all these commandments, which Jehovah has spoken to Moses,
Now if you stray unintentionally and do not obey all these commandments that the LORD has spoken to Moses—
23 even all that Jehovah has commanded you by Moses, from the day that Jehovah gave commandment, and onward throughout your generations;
all that the LORD has commanded you through Moses from the day the LORD gave them and continuing through the generations to come—
24 then it shall be, if it be done unwittingly, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bull for a burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma to Jehovah, with the meal offering of it, and the drink offering of it, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for a sin offering.
and if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation, then the whole congregation is to prepare one young bull as a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD, with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation, and one male goat as a sin offering.
25 The priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering made by fire to Jehovah, and their sin offering before Jehovah, for their error:
The priest is to make atonement for the whole congregation of Israel, so that they may be forgiven; for the sin was unintentional and they have brought to the LORD an offering made by fire and a sin offering, presented before the LORD for their unintentional sin.
26 and all the congregation of the children of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them; for in respect of all the people it was done unwittingly.
Then the whole congregation of Israel and the foreigners residing among them will be forgiven, since it happened to all the people unintentionally.
27 "'If one person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.
Also, if one person sins unintentionally, he is to present a year-old female goat as a sin offering.
28 The priest shall make atonement for the soul who errs, when he sins unwittingly, before Jehovah, to make atonement for him; and he shall be forgiven.
And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD on behalf of the person who erred by sinning unintentionally; and when atonement has been made for him, he will be forgiven.
29 You shall have one law for him who does anything unwittingly, for him who is native-born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them.
You shall have the same law for the one who acts in error, whether he is a native-born Israelite or a foreigner residing among you.
30 "'But the person who acts defiantly, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, the same blasphemes God, and that person is to be cut off from among his people.
But the person who sins defiantly, whether a native or foreigner, blasphemes the LORD. That person shall be cut off from among his people.
31 Because he has despised the word of Jehovah, and has broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be on him.'"
He shall certainly be cut off, because he has despised the word of the LORD and broken His commandment; his guilt remains on him.”
32 While the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.
While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day.
33 Those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
Those who found the man gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the whole congregation,
34 They put him in custody, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.
and because it had not been declared what should be done to him, they placed him in custody.
35 Jehovah said to Moses, "The man shall surely be put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside of the camp."
And the LORD said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death. The whole congregation is to stone him outside the camp.”
36 All the congregation brought him outside of the camp, and stoned him to death with stones; as Jehovah commanded Moses.
So the whole congregation took the man outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
37 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Later, the LORD said to Moses,
38 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them that they should make themselves fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of each border a cord of blue:
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout the generations to come they are to make for themselves tassels for the corners of their garments, with a blue cord on each tassel.
39 and it shall be to you for a fringe, that you may look on it, and remember all the commandments of Jehovah, and do them; and that you not follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to play the prostitute;
These will serve as tassels for you to look at, so that you may remember all the commandments of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by following your own heart and your own eyes.
40 that you may remember and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.
Then you will remember and obey all My commandments, and you will be holy to your God.
41 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am Jehovah your God."
I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God.”
