# Chapter 15
|
|
1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
|
|
2. "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 'When you have come into the land you are to inhabit, which I am giving to you,
|
|
3. and you make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering or in your appointed feasts, to make a sweet aroma to the Lord, from the herd or the flock,
|
|
4. then he who presents his offering to the Lord shall bring a grain offering of one-tenth _of an ephah_ of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of oil;
|
|
5. and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering you shall prepare with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for each lamb.
|
|
6. Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths _of an ephah_ of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil;
|
|
7. and as a drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a sweet aroma to the Lord.
|
|
8. And when you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or as a peace offering to the Lord,
|
|
9. then shall be offered with the young bull a grain offering of three-tenths _of an ephah_ of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil;
|
|
10. and you shall bring as the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.
|
|
|
|
11. 'Thus it shall be done for each young bull, for each ram, or for each lamb or young goat.
|
|
12. According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do with everyone according to their number.
|
|
13. All who are native-born shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.
|
|
14. And if a stranger dwells with you, or whoever _is_ among you throughout your generations, and would present an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord, just as you do, so shall he do.
|
|
15. One ordinance _shall be_ for you of the assembly and for the stranger who dwells _with you,_ an ordinance forever throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the stranger be before the Lord.
|
|
16. One law and one custom shall be for you and for the stranger who dwells with you.' "
|
|
|
|
17. Again the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
|
|
18. "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 'When you come into the land to which I bring you,
|
|
19. then it will be, when you eat of the bread of the land, that you shall offer up a heave offering to the Lord.
|
|
20. You shall offer up a cake of the first of your ground meal _as_ a heave offering; as a heave offering of the threshing floor, so shall you offer it up.
|
|
21. Of the first of your ground meal you shall give to the Lord a heave offering throughout your generations.Laws Concerning Unintentional Sin
|
|
|
|
22. 'If you sin unintentionally, and do not observe all these commandments which the Lord has spoken to Moses--
|
|
23. all that the Lord has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day the Lord gave commandment and onward throughout your generations--
|
|
24. then it will be, if it is unintentionally committed, without the knowledge of the congregation, that the whole congregation shall offer one young bull as a burnt offering, as a sweet aroma to the Lord, with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats as a sin offering.
|
|
25. So the priest shall make atonement for the whole congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them, for it was unintentional; they shall bring their offering, an offering made by fire to the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord, for their unintended sin.
|
|
26. It shall be forgiven the whole congregation of the children of Israel and the stranger who dwells among them, because all the people _did it_ unintentionally.
|
|
|
|
27. 'And if a person sins unintentionally, then he shall bring a female goat in its first year as a sin offering.
|
|
28. So the priest shall make atonement for the person who sins unintentionally, when he sins unintentionally before the Lord, to make atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him.
|
|
29. You shall have one law for him who sins unintentionally, _for_ him who is native-born among the children of Israel and for the stranger who dwells among them.Law Concerning Presumptuous Sin
|
|
|
|
30. 'But the person who does _anything_ presumptuously, _whether he is_ native-born or a stranger, that one brings reproach on the Lord, and he shall be cut off from among his people.
|
|
31. Because he has despised the word of the Lord, and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt _shall be_ upon him.' "Penalty for Violating the Sabbath
|
|
|
|
32. Now while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.
|
|
33. And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
|
|
34. They put him under guard, because it had not been explained what should be done to him.
|
|
|
|
35. Then the Lord said to Moses, "The man must surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp."
|
|
36. So, as the Lord commanded Moses, all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, and he died.Tassels on Garments
|
|
|
|
37. Again the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
|
|
38. "Speak to the children of Israel: Tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue thread in the tassels of the corners.
|
|
39. And you shall have the tassel, that you may look upon it and remember all the commandments of the Lord and do them, and that you _may_ not follow the harlotry to which your own heart and your own eyes are inclined,
|
|
40. and that you may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy for your God.
|
|
41. 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."
