CJB

KJV

1 ADONAI said to Moshe,
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 "Speak to the entire community of Isra'el; tell them, 'You people are to be holy because I, ADONAI your God, am holy.
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy.
3 "'Every one of you is to revere his father and mother, and you are to keep my Shabbats; I am ADONAI your God.
3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.
4 "'Do not turn to idols, and do not cast metal gods for yourselves; I am ADONAI your God.
4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.
5 "'When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to ADONAI, offer it in a way that will make you accepted.
5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer it at your own will.
6 It is to be eaten the same day you offer it and the following day; but if any of it remains until the third day, it is to be burned up completely.
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.
7 If any of it is eaten on the third day, it will have become a disgusting thing and will not be accepted;
7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall not be accepted.
8 moreover, everyone who eats it will bear the consequences of profaning something holy meant for ADONAI -that person will be cut off from his people.
8 Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
9 "'When you harvest the ripe crops produced in your land, don't harvest all the way to corners of your field, and don't gather the ears of grain left by the harvesters.
9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.
10 Likewise, don't gather the grapes left on the vine or fallen on the ground after harvest; leave them for the poor and the foreigner; I am ADONAI your God.
10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the LORD your God.
11 "'Do not steal from, defraud or lie to each other.
11 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.
12 Do not swear by my name falsely, which would be profaning the name of your God; I am ADONAI.
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
13 Do not oppress or rob your neighbor; specifically, you are not to keep back the wages of a hired worker all night until morning.
13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
14 "'Do not speak a curse against a deaf person or place an obstacle in the way of a blind person; rather, fear your God; I am ADONAI.
14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD.
15 "'Do not be unjust in judging - show neither partiality to the poor nor deference to the mighty, but with justice judge your neighbor.
15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
16 "'Do not go around spreading slander among your people, but also don't stand idly by when your neighbor's life is at stake; I am ADONAI.
16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD.
17 "'Do not hate your brother in your heart, but rebuke your neighbor frankly, so that you won't carry sin because of him.
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
18 Don't take vengeance on or bear a grudge against any of your people; rather, love your neighbor as yourself; I am ADONAI.
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
19 "'Observe my regulations. "'Don't let your livestock mate with those of another kind, don't sow your field with two different kinds of grain, and don't wear a garment of cloth made with two different kinds of thread.
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 woollen come upon thee.
20 "'If a man has sexual relations with a woman who is a slave intended for another man, and she has neither been redeemed nor given her freedom, there is to be an investigation. They are not to be put to death, because she was not free.
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.
21 In reparation he is to bring a ram as a guilt offering for himself to the entrance of the tent of meeting.
21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering.
22 The cohen will make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before ADONAI for the sin he committed, and he will be forgiven for the sin he committed.
22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
23 "'When you enter the land and plant various kinds of fruit trees, you are to regard its fruit as forbidden - for three years it will be forbidden to you and not eaten.
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.
24 In the fourth year all its fruit will be holy, for praising ADONAI.
24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the LORD withal.
25 But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit, so that it will produce even more for you; I am ADONAI your God.
25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the LORD your God.
26 "'Do not eat anything with blood. Do not practice divination or fortune-telling.
26 Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.
27 Don't round your hair at the temples or mar the edges of your beard.
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
28 Don't cut gashes in your flesh when someone dies or tattoo yourselves; I am ADONAI.
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.
29 "'Do not debase your daughter by making her a prostitute, so that the land will not fall into prostitution and become full of shame.
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.
30 "'Keep my Shabbats, and revere my sanctuary; I am ADONAI.
30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
31 "'Do not turn to spirit-mediums or sorcerers; don't seek them out, to be defiled by them; I am ADONAI your God.
31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
32 "'Stand up in the presence of a person with gray hair, show respect for the old; you are to fear your God; I am ADONAI.
32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the LORD.
33 "'If a foreigner stays with you in your land, do not do him wrong.
33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.
34 Rather, treat the foreigner staying with you like the native-born among you - you are to love him as yourself, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt; I am ADONAI your God.
34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
35 "'Don't be dishonest when measuring length, weight or capacity.
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.
36 Rather, use an honest balance-scale, honest weights, an honest bushel dry-measure and an honest gallon liquid-measure; I am ADONAI your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Observe all my regulations and rulings, and do them; I am ADONAI.'"
37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the LORD.
