# Numbers 15 (New King James Version)
Laws of Grain and Drink Offerings
##### 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."
