| 1And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, | 1The LORD instructed Moses: |
| 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, | 2"Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you enter the land I am giving you to settle in, |
| 3and 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, | 3and you make a fire offering to the LORD from the herd or flock--either a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow, or as a freewill offering, or at your appointed festivals--to produce a pleasing aroma for the LORD, |
| 4then 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; | 4the one presenting his offering to the LORD is also to present a grain offering of two quarts of fine flour mixed with a quart of oil. |
| 5and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering you shall prepare with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for each lamb. | 5Prepare a quart of wine as a drink offering with the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb. |
| 6Or 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; | 6"If you prepare a grain offering with a ram, it is to be four quarts of fine flour mixed with a third of a gallon of oil. |
| 7and as a drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a sweet aroma to the LORD. | 7Also present a third of a gallon of wine for a drink offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
| 8And 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, | 8"If you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow, or as a fellowship offering to the LORD, |
| 9then 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; | 9a grain offering of six quarts of fine flour mixed with two quarts of oil is to be presented with the bull. |
| 10and you shall bring as the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. | 10Also present two quarts of wine as a drink offering. It is a fire offering of pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
| 11‘Thus it shall be done for each young bull, for each ram, or for each lamb or young goat. | 11This is to be done for each ox, ram, lamb, or goat. |
| 12According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do with everyone according to their number. | 12This is how you are to prepare each of them, no matter how many. |
| 13All who are native-born shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. | 13"Every Israelite is to prepare these things in this way when he presents a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
| 14And 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. | 14When an alien resides with you or someone else is among you and wants to prepare a fire offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, he is to do exactly as you do throughout your generations. |
| 15One 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. | 15The assembly is to have the same statute for both you and the resident alien as a permanent statute throughout your generations. You and the alien will be alike before the LORD. |
| 16One law and one custom shall be for you and for the stranger who dwells with you.’ ” | 16The same law and the same ordinance will apply to both you and the alien who resides with you." |
| 17Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, | 17The LORD instructed Moses: |
| 18“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land to which I bring you, | 18"Speak to the Israelites and tell them: After you enter the land where I am bringing you, |
| 19then it will be, when you eat of the bread of the land, that you shall offer up a heave offering to the LORD. | 19you are to offer a contribution to the LORD when you eat from the food of the land. |
| 20You 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. | 20You are to offer a loaf from your first batch of dough as a contribution; offer it just like a contribution from the threshing floor. |
| 21Of the first of your ground meal you shall give to the LORD a heave offering throughout your generations. | 21Throughout your generations, you are to give the LORD a contribution from the first batch of your dough. |
| 22‘If you sin unintentionally, and do not observe all these commandments which the LORD has spoken to Moses— | 22"When you sin unintentionally and do not obey all these commands that the LORD spoke to Moses-- |
| 23all that the LORD has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day the LORD gave commandment and onward throughout your generations— | 23all that the LORD has commanded you through Moses, from the day the LORD issued the commands and onward throughout your generations-- |
| 24then 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. | 24and if it was done unintentionally without the community's awareness, the entire community is to prepare one young bull for a burnt offering as a pleasing aroma to the LORD, with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation, and one male goat as a sin offering. |
| 25So 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. | 25The priest will then make atonement for the entire Israelite community so that they may be forgiven, for the sin was unintentional. They are to bring their offering, one made by fire to the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD for their unintentional sin. |
| 26It 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. | 26The entire Israelite community and the alien who resides among them will be forgiven, since it happened to all the people unintentionally. |
| 27‘And if a person sins unintentionally, then he shall bring a female goat in its first year as a sin offering. | 27"If one person sins unintentionally, he is to present a year-old female goat as a sin offering. |
| 28So 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. | 28The priest will then make atonement before the LORD on behalf of the person who acts in error sinning unintentionally, and when he makes atonement for him, he will be forgiven. |
| 29You 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. | 29You are to have the same law for the person who acts in error, whether he is an Israelite or an alien who resides among you. |
| 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. | 30"But the person who acts defiantly, whether native or resident alien, blasphemes the LORD. That person is to be cut off from his people. |
| 31Because 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.’ ” | 31He will certainly be cut off, because he has despised the LORD's word and broken his command; his guilt remains on him." |
| 32Now while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. | 32While the Israelites were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day. |
| 33And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation. | 33Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the entire community. |
| 34They put him under guard, because it had not been explained what should be done to him. | 34They placed him in custody because it had not been decided what should be done to him. |
| 35Then the LORD said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp.” | 35Then the LORD told Moses, "The man is to be put to death. The entire community is to stone him outside the camp." |
| 36So, as the LORD commanded Moses, all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, and he died. | 36So the entire community brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| 37Again the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, | 37The LORD said to Moses, |
| 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. | 38"Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout their generations they are to make tassels for the corners of their garments, and put a blue cord on the tassel at each corner. |
| 39And 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, | 39These will serve as tassels for you to look at, so that you may remember all the LORD's commands and obey them and not prostitute yourselves by following your own heart and your own eyes. |
| 40and that you may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy for your God. | 40This way you will remember and obey all my commands and be holy to your God. |
| 41I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God.” | 41I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God; I am the LORD your God." |
