19:1 And Yehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
19:2 Speak to the congregation of the children of Israel, and thou shalt say
to them, Ye shall be holy; for I Yehovah your Elohim [am] holy.
19:3 Let every one of you reverence his father and his mother; and ye shall
keep my sabbaths: I [am] Yehovah your Elohim.
19:4 Ye shall not follow idols, and ye shall not make to yourselves molten
gods: I [am] Yehovah your Elohim.
19:5 And if ye will sacrifice a peace-offering to Yehovah, ye shall offer
it acceptable from yourselves.
19:6 In what day soever ye shall sacrifice it, it shall be eaten; and on the
following day, and if any of it should be left till the third day, it shall
be thoroughly burnt with fire.
19:7 And if it should be at all eaten on the third day, it is unfit for
sacrifice: it shall not be accepted.
19:8 And he that eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned
the holy things of Yehovah; and the souls that eat it shall be destroyed
from among their people.
19:9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, ye shall not complete the
reaping of your field with exactness, and thou shalt not gather that which
falls from thy reaping.

shalt thou gather the remaining grapes of thy vineyard: thou shalt leave
them for the poor and the stranger: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:11 Ye shall not steal, ye shall not lie, neither shall one bear false
witness as an informer against his neighbour.
19:12 And ye shall not swear unjustly by my name, and ye shall not profane

neither shall the wages of thy hireling remain with thee until the morning.

stumbling-block in the way of the blind; and thou shalt fear Yehovah thy
Elohim: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:15 Thou shalt not act unjustly in judgment: thou shalt not accept the
person of the poor, nor admire the person of the mighty; with justice shalt
thou judge thy neighbour.
19:16 Thou shalt not walk deceitfully among thy people; thou shalt not rise
up against the blood of thy neighbour: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise
rebuke thy neighbour, so thou shalt not bear sin on his account.
19:18 And thy hand shall not avenge thee; and thou shalt not be angry with
the children of thy people; and thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; I
am Yehovah
19:19 Ye shall observe my law: thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with one
of a different kind, and thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with diverse seed;
and thou shalt not put upon thyself a mingled garment woven of two
[materials].
19:20 And if any one lie carnally with a woman, and she should be a
home-servant kept for a man, and she has not been ransomed, [and] her

but they shall not die, because she was not set at liberty.
19:21 And he shall bring for his trespass to Yehovah to the door of the
tabernacle of witness, a ram for a trespass-offering.

trespass-offering, before Yehovah, for the sin which he sinned; and the sin
which he sinned shall be forgiven him.
19:23 And whenever ye shall enter into the land which Yehovah your Elohim
gives you, and shall plant any fruit-tree, then shall ye purge away its
uncleanness; its fruit shall be three years uncleansed to you, it shall not
be eaten.
19:24 And in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, a subject of
praise to Yehovah.
19:25 And in the fifth year ye shall eat the fruit, its produce is an
increase to you. I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:26 Eat not on the mountains, nor shall ye employ auguries, nor divine by
inspection of birds.
19:27 Ye shall not make a round cutting of the hair of your head, nor
disfigure your beard.
19:28 And ye shall not make cuttings in your body for a [dead] body, and ye
shall not inscribe on yourselves any marks. I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:29 Thou shalt not profane thy daughter to prostitute her; so the land
shall not go a whoring, and the land be filled with iniquity.
19:30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the
Lord.
19:31 Ye shall not attend to those who have in them divining spirits, nor

old an, and shalt fear thy Elohim: I am Yehovah your Elohim.

thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt:
I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:35 Ye shall not act unrighteously in judgment, in measures and weights
and scales.
19:36 There shall be among you just balances and just weights and just
liquid measure. I am Yehovah your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of
Egypt.
19:37 And ye shall keep all my law and all my ordinances, and ye shall do
them: I am Yehovah your Elohim. |
19:1 And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
19:2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto
them, Ye shall be holy: for I Yehovah your Elohim am holy.
19:3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my
sabbaths: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the
Yehovah your Elohim.
19:5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto Yehovah, ye shall
offer it at your own will.
19:6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if
ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.
19:7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall
not be accepted.

hath profaned the hallowed thing of Yehovah: and that soul shall be cut off
from among his people.

the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy

grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am
Yehovah your Elohim.

that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
19:14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling-block before the
blind, but shalt fear thy Elohim: I am Yehovah.
19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the
person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness
shalt thou judge thy neighbor.
19:16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people:
neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor; I am Yehovah.
19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise
rebuke thy neighbor, and not suffer sin upon him.
19:18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy
people, but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Yehovah.
19:19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a
diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall
a garment mingled of linen and woolen come upon thee.
19:20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid,
betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she
shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
19:21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto Yehovah, unto the door
of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering.
19:22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the
trespass offering before Yehovah for his sin which he hath done: and the
sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
19:23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all
manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as
uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall
not be eaten of.
19:24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise
Yehovah withal.
19:25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may
yield unto you the increase thereof: I am Yehovah your Elohim.

the corners of thy beard.
19:28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print
any marks upon you: I am Yehovah.
19:29 Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the
land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
19:30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Yehovah.
19:31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after
wizards, to be defiled by them: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of the
old man, and fear thy Elohim: I am Yehovah.
19:33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex
him.

among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the
land of Egypt: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
19:35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or
in measure.
19:36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye
have: I am Yehovah your Elohim, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
19:37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and
do them: I am Yehovah. |
