| Chapter 24 |
1 |
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, --
|
2 |
Command the children of Israel, that they bring to thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually. --
|
3 |
Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening to the morning before the LORD continually: It shall be a statute for ever in your generations. --
|
4 |
Ye shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually. --
|
5 |
And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenth-parts shall be in one cake. --
|
6 |
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure table before the LORD. --
|
7 |
And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the LORD. --
|
8 |
Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant. --
|
9 |
And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute. --
|
10 |
And the son of an Israelitish woman whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp; --
|
11 |
And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed: and they brought him to Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:) --
|
12 |
And they put him in custody, that the mind of the LORD might be shown to them. --
|
13 |
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, --
|
14 |
Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him. --
|
15 |
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whoever curseth his God shall bear his sin. --
|
16 |
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death. --
|
17 |
And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death. --
|
18 |
And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast. --
|
19 |
And if a man shall cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him; --
|
20 |
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him. --
|
21 |
And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death. --
|
22 |
Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God. --
|
23 |
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones: and the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses. --
