Numbers 15 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[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,
[3] and will make an offering by fire to Yahweh—a burnt offering, or a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or as a free will offering, or in your set feasts, to make a pleasant aroma to Yahweh, of the herd, or of the flock—
[4] then he who offers his offering shall offer to Yahweh a meal offering of one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one fourth of a hin of oil.
[5] You shall prepare wine for the drink offering, one fourth of a hin, with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.
[6] “ ‘For a ram, you shall prepare for a meal offering two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the third part of a hin of oil;
[7] and for the drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin of wine, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
[8] When you prepare a bull for a burnt offering or for a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or for peace offerings to Yahweh,
[9] then he shall offer with the bull a meal offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of 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 Yahweh.
[11] Thus it shall be done for each bull, for each ram, for each of the male lambs, or of the young goats.
[12] According to the number that you shall prepare, so you shall do to everyone according to their number.
[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 Yahweh.
[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 Yahweh, as you do, so he shall do.
[15] For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner, a statute forever throughout your generations. As you are, so the foreigner shall be before Yahweh.
[16] One law and one ordinance shall be for you and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner with you.’ ”
[17] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[18] “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land where I bring you,
[19] then it shall be that when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up a wave offering to Yahweh.
[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.
[21] Of the first of your dough, you shall give to Yahweh a wave offering throughout your generations.
[22] “ ‘When you err, and don’t observe all these commandments which Yahweh has spoken to Moses—
[23] even all that Yahweh has commanded you by Moses, from the day that Yahweh gave commandment and onward throughout your generations—
[24] then it shall be, if it was 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 Yahweh, with its meal offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for 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 Yahweh, and their sin offering before Yahweh, for their error.
[26] All the congregation of the children of Israel shall be forgiven, as well as the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them; for with regard to all the people, it was done unwittingly.
[27] “ ‘If a person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.
[28] The priest shall make atonement for the soul who errs when he sins unwittingly before Yahweh. He shall make atonement for him; and he shall 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.
[30] “ ‘But the soul who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, blasphemes Yahweh. That soul shall be cut off from among his people.
[31] Because he has despised Yahweh’s word, and has broken his commandment, that soul shall be utterly cut off. His iniquity shall be on him.’ ”
[32] While the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.
[33] Those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
[34] They put him in custody, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.
[35] Yahweh said to Moses, “The man shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him with stones outside of the camp.”
[36] All the congregation brought him outside of the camp, and stoned him to death with stones, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
[37] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
[38] “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them that they should make themselves fringes on the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of each border a cord of blue.
[39] It shall be to you for a fringe, that you may see it, and remember all Yahweh’s commandments, and do them; and that you don’t follow your own heart and your own eyes, after which you used to play the prostitute;
[40] so that you may remember and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.
[41] I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am Yahweh your God.”

Young’s Literal Translation

Numbers 15 (YLT)

[1] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[2] ‘Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land of your dwellings, which I am giving to you,
[3] then ye have prepared a fire-offering to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or free-will-offering, or in your appointed things, to make a sweet fragrance to Jehovah, out of the herd, or out of the flock.
[4] ‘And he who is bringing near his offering to Jehovah hath brought near a present of flour, a tenth deal, mixed with a fourth of the hin of oil;
[5] and wine for a libation, a fourth of the hin thou dost prepare for the burnt-offering or for a sacrifice, for the one lamb;
[6] or for a ram thou dost prepare a present of flour, two-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a third of the hin;
[7] and wine for a libation, a third part of the hin, thou dost bring near-a sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
[8] ‘And when thou makest a son of the herd a burnt-offering or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or peace-offerings to Jehovah,
[9] then he hath brought near for the son of the herd a present of flour, three-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a half of the hin;
[10] and wine thou bringest near for a libation, a half of the hin-a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
[11] thus it is done for the one ox, or for the one ram, or for a lamb of the sheep or of the goats.
[12] ‘According to the number that ye prepare, so ye do to each, according to their number;
[13] every native doth thus with these, at bringing near a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
[14] and when a sojourner sojourneth with you, or whoso is in your midst to your generations, and he hath made a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah, as ye do so he doth.
[15] ‘One statute is for you of the congregation and for the sojourner who is sojourning, a statute age-during to your generations: as ye are so is the sojourner before Jehovah;
[16] one law and one ordinance is to you and to the sojourner who is sojourning with you.’
[17] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[18] ‘Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, In your coming in unto the land whither I am bringing you in,
[19] then it hath been, in your eating of the bread of the land, ye heave up a heave-offering to Jehovah;
[20] the beginning of your dough a cake ye heave up-a heave-offering; as the heave-offering of a threshing-floor, so ye do heave it.
[21] Of the beginning of your dough ye do give to Jehovah a heave-offering-to your generations.
[22] ‘And when ye err, and do not all these commands which Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses,
[23] the whole that Jehovah hath charged upon you by the hand of Moses, from the day that Jehovah hath commanded, and henceforth, to your generations,
[24] then it hath been, if from the eyes of the company it hath been done in ignorance, that all the company have prepared one bullock, a son of the herd, for a burnt-offering, for sweet fragrance to Jehovah, and its present, and its libation, according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.
[25] ‘And the priest hath made atonement for all the company of the sons of Israel, and it hath been forgiven them, for it is ignorance, and they-they have brought in their offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah, even their sin-offering before Jehovah for their ignorance;
[26] and it hath been forgiven to all the company of the sons of Israel, and to the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst; for to all the company it is done in ignorance.
[27] ‘And if one person sin in ignorance, then he hath brought near a she-goat, daughter of a year, for a sin-offering;
[28] and the priest hath made atonement for the person who is erring, in his sinning in ignorance before Jehovah, by making atonement for him, and it hath been forgiven him;
[29] for the native among the sons of Israel, and for the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst-one law is to you, for him who is doing anything through ignorance.
[30] ‘And the person who doth aught with a high hand-of the native or of the sojourner-Jehovah he is reviling, and that person hath been cut off from the midst of his people;
[31] because the word of Jehovah he despised, and His command hath broken-that person is certainly cut off; his iniquity is on him.’
[32] And the sons of Israel are in the wilderness, and they find a man gathering wood on the sabbath-day,
[33] and those finding him gathering wood bring him near unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto all the company,
[34] and they place him in ward, for it is not explained what is to be done to him.
[35] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘The man is certainly put to death, all the company stoning him with stones, at the outside of the camp.’
[36] And all the company bring him out unto the outside of the camp, and stone him with stones, and he dieth, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[37] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[38] ‘Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, and they have made for themselves fringes on the skirts of their garments, to their generations, and they have put on the fringe of the skirt a ribbon of blue,
[39] and it hath been to you for a fringe, and ye have seen it, and have remembered all the commands of Jehovah, and have done them, and ye search not after your heart, and after your eyes, after which ye are going a-whoring;
[40] so that ye remember and have done all My commands, and ye have been holy to your God;
[41] I am Jehovah your God, who hath brought you out from the land of Egypt to become your God; I, Jehovah, am your God.’
