Leviticus 19 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[2] “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘You shall be holy; for I, Yahweh your God, am holy.
[3] “ ‘Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am Yahweh your God.
[4] “ ‘Don’t turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am Yahweh your God.
[5] “ ‘When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
[6] It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day. If anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.
[7] If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;
[8] but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Yahweh, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
[9] “ ‘When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
[10] You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.
[11] “ ‘You shall not steal. “ ‘You shall not lie. “ ‘You shall not deceive one another.
[12] “ ‘You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh.
[13] “ ‘You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. “ ‘The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning.
[14] “ ‘You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God. I am Yahweh.
[15] “ ‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.
[16] “ ‘You shall not go around as a slanderer among your people. “ ‘You shall not endanger the life° of your neighbor. I am Yahweh.
[17] “ ‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
[18] “ ‘You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am Yahweh.
[19] “ ‘You shall keep my statutes. “ ‘You shall not cross-breed different kinds of animals. “ ‘You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed; “ ‘Don’t wear a garment made of two kinds of material.
[20] “ ‘If a man lies carnally with a woman who is a slave girl, pledged to be married to another man, and not ransomed or given her freedom; they shall be punished. They shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
[21] He shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, even a ram for a trespass offering.
[22] The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before Yahweh for his sin which he has committed; and the sin which he has committed shall be forgiven him.
[23] “ ‘When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as forbidden.° For three years it shall be forbidden to you. It shall not be eaten.
[24] But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, for giving praise to Yahweh.
[25] In the fifth year you shall eat its fruit, that it may yield its increase to you. I am Yahweh your God.
[26] “ ‘You shall not eat any meat with the blood still in it. You shall not use enchantments, nor practice sorcery.
[27] “ ‘You shall not cut the hair on the sides of your head or clip off the edge of your beard.
[28] “ ‘You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you. I am Yahweh.
[29] “ ‘Don’t profane your daughter, to make her a prostitute; lest the land fall to prostitution, and the land become full of wickedness.
[30] “ ‘You shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary; I am Yahweh.
[31] “ ‘Don’t turn to those who are mediums, nor to the wizards. Don’t seek them out, to be defiled by them. I am Yahweh your God.
[32] “ ‘You shall rise up before the gray head and honor the face of the elderly; and you shall fear your God. I am Yahweh.
[33] “ ‘If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong.
[34] The stranger who lives as a foreigner with you shall be to you as the native-born among you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
[35] “ ‘You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.
[36] You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah,° and a just hin.° I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
[37] “ ‘You shall observe all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them. I am Yahweh.’ ”

[1] And the LORD H3068 spake H1696 (8762) unto Moses H4872, saying H559 (8800),
[2] Speak H1696 (8761) unto all the congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478, and say H559 (8804) unto them, Ye shall be holy H6918: for I the LORD H3068 your God H430 [am] holy H6918.
[3] Ye shall fear H3372 (8799) every man H376 his mother H517, and his father H1, and keep H8104 (8799) my sabbaths H7676: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[4] Turn H6437 (8799) ye not unto idols H457, nor make H6213 (8799) to yourselves molten H4541 gods H430: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[5] And if ye offer H2076 (8799) a sacrifice H2077 of peace offerings H8002 unto the LORD H3068, ye shall offer H2076 (8799) it at your own will H7522.
[6] It shall be eaten H398 (8735) the same day H3117 ye offer H2077 it, and on the morrow H4283: and if ought remain H3498 (8737) until the third H7992 day H3117, it shall be burnt H8313 (8735) in the fire H784.
[7] And if it be eaten H398 (8735) at all H398 (8736) on the third H7992 day H3117, it [is] abominable H6292; it shall not be accepted H7521 (8735).
[8] Therefore [every one] that eateth H398 (8802) it shall bear H5375 (8799) his iniquity H5771, because he hath profaned H2490 (8765) the hallowed thing H6944 of the LORD H3068: and that soul H5315 shall be cut off H3772 (8738) from among his people H5971.
[9] And when ye reap H7114 (8800) the harvest H7105 of your land H776, thou shalt not wholly reap H3615 (8762) the corners H6285 of thy field H7704, neither shalt thou gather H3950 (8762) the gleanings H3951 of thy harvest H7105.
[10] And thou shalt not glean H5953 (8779) thy vineyard H3754, neither shalt thou gather H3950 (8762) [every] grape H6528 of thy vineyard H3754; thou shalt leave H5800 (8799) them for the poor H6041 and stranger H1616: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[11] Ye shall not steal H1589 (8799), neither deal falsely H3584 (8762), neither lie H8266 (8762) one H376 to another H5997.
[12] And ye shall not swear H7650 (8735) by my name H8034 falsely H8267, neither shalt thou profane H2490 (8765) the name H8034 of thy God H430: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[13] Thou shalt not defraud H6231 (8799) thy neighbour H7453, neither rob H1497 (8799) [him]: the wages H6468 of him that is hired H7916 shall not abide H3885 (8799) with thee all night until the morning H1242.
[14] Thou shalt not curse H7043 (8762) the deaf H2795, nor put H5414 (8799) a stumblingblock H4383 before H6440 the blind H5787, but shalt fear H3372 (8804) thy God H430: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[15] Ye shall do H6213 (8799) no unrighteousness H5766 in judgment H4941: thou shalt not respect H5375 (8799) the person H6440 of the poor H1800, nor honour H1921 (8799) the person H6440 of the mighty H1419: [but] in righteousness H6664 shalt thou judge H8199 (8799) thy neighbour H5997.
[16] Thou shalt not go H3212 (8799) up and down [as] a talebearer H7400 among thy people H5971: neither shalt thou stand H5975 (8799) against the blood H1818 of thy neighbour H7453: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[17] Thou shalt not hate H8130 (8799) thy brother H251 in thine heart H3824: thou shalt in any wise H3198 (8687) rebuke H3198 (8686) thy neighbour H5997, and not suffer H5375 (8799) sin H2399 upon him.
[18] Thou shalt not avenge H5358 (8799), nor bear any grudge H5201 (8799) against the children H1121 of thy people H5971, but thou shalt love H157 (8804) thy neighbour H7453 as thyself H3644: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[19] Ye shall keep H8104 (8799) my statutes H2708. Thou shalt not let thy cattle H929 gender H7250 (8686) with a diverse kind H3610: thou shalt not sow H2232 (8799) thy field H7704 with mingled seed H3610: neither shall a garment H899 mingled H3610 of linen and woollen H8162 come H5927 (8799) upon thee.
[20] And whosoever H376 lieth H7901 (8799) carnally H2233 H7902 with a woman H802, that [is] a bondmaid H8198, betrothed H2778 (8737) to an husband H376, and not at all H6299 (8715) redeemed H6299 (8738), nor freedom H2668 given H5414 (8738) her; she shall be scourged H1244; they shall not be put to death H4191 (8714), because she was not free H2666 (8795).
[21] And he shall bring H935 (8689) his trespass offering H817 unto the LORD H3068, unto the door H6607 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150, [even] a ram H352 for a trespass offering H817.
[22] And the priest H3548 shall make an atonement H3722 (8765) for him with the ram H352 of the trespass offering H817 before H6440 the LORD H3068 for his sin H2403 which he hath done H2398 (8804): and the sin H2403 which he hath done H2398 (8804) shall be forgiven H5545 (8738) him.
[23] And when ye shall come H935 (8799) into the land H776, and shall have planted H5193 (8804) all manner of trees H6086 for food H3978, then ye shall count H6188 the fruit H6529 thereof as uncircumcised H6188 (8804) H6190: three H7969 years H8141 shall it be as uncircumcised H6189 unto you: it shall not be eaten H398 (8735) of.
[24] But in the fourth H7243 year H8141 all the fruit H6529 thereof shall be holy H6944 to praise H1974 the LORD H3068 [withal].
[25] And in the fifth H2549 year H8141 shall ye eat H398 (8799) of the fruit H6529 thereof, that it may yield H3254 (8687) unto you the increase H8393 thereof: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[26] Ye shall not eat H398 (8799) [any thing] with the blood H1818: neither shall ye use enchantment H5172 (8762), nor observe times H6049 (8779).
[27] Ye shall not round H5362 (8686) the corners H6285 of your heads H7218, neither shalt thou mar H7843 (8686) the corners H6285 of thy beard H2206.
[28] Ye shall not make H5414 (8799) any H3793 cuttings H8296 in your flesh H1320 for the dead H5315, nor print H5414 (8799) any marks H7085 upon you: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[29] Do not prostitute H2490 (8762) thy daughter H1323, to cause her to be a whore H2181 (8687); lest the land H776 fall to whoredom H2181 (8799), and the land H776 become full H4390 (8804) of wickedness H2154.
[30] Ye shall keep H8104 (8799) my sabbaths H7676, and reverence H3372 (8799) my sanctuary H4720: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[31] Regard H6437 (8799) not them that have familiar spirits H178, neither seek H1245 (8762) after wizards H3049, to be defiled H2930 (8800) by them: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[32] Thou shalt rise up H6965 (8799) before H6440 the hoary head H7872, and honour H1921 (8804) the face H6440 of the old man H2205, and fear H3372 (8804) thy God H430: I [am] the LORD H3068.
[33] And if a stranger H1616 sojourn H1481 (8799) with thee in your land H776, ye shall not vex H3238 (8686) him.
[34] [But] the stranger H1616 that dwelleth H1481 (8802) with you shall be unto you as one born H249 among you, and thou shalt love H157 (8804) him as thyself; for ye were strangers H1616 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430.
[35] Ye shall do H6213 (8799) no unrighteousness H5766 in judgment H4941, in meteyard H4060, in weight H4948, or in measure H4884.
[36] Just H6664 balances H3976, just H6664 weights H68, a just H6664 ephah H374, and a just H6664 hin H1969, shall ye have: I [am] the LORD H3068 your God H430, which brought you out H3318 (8689) of the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
[37] Therefore shall ye observe H8104 (8804) all my statutes H2708, and all my judgments H4941, and do H6213 (8804) them: I [am] the LORD H3068.
