And the Lord said to Moses,

2 C ommand the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.

Command the Israelites that they bring to you pure oil from beaten olives for the light to cause a lamp to burn continually.

3 W ithout the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah continually: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations.

Outside the veil of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the Lord continually; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.

4 H e shall keep in order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before Jehovah continually.

He shall keep the lamps in order upon the lampstand of pure gold before the Lord continually.

5 A nd thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one cake.

And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it; two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake.

6 A nd thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before Jehovah.

And you shall set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the table of pure gold before the Lord.

7 A nd thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto Jehovah.

You shall put pure frankincense beside each row, that it may be with the bread as a memorial portion, an offering to be made by fire to the Lord.

8 E very sabbath day he shall set it in order before Jehovah continually; it is on the behalf of the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant.

Every Sabbath day Aaron shall set the showbread in order before the Lord continually; it is on behalf of the Israelites, an everlasting covenant.

9 A nd it shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire by a perpetual statute.

And the bread shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat it in a sacred place, for it is for a most holy portion of the offerings to the Lord made by fire, a perpetual due.

10 A nd the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp:

Now the son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the Israelites, and he and a man of Israel quarreled and strove together in the camp.

11 a nd the son of the Israelitish woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him unto Moses. And his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

The Israelite woman’s son blasphemed the Name and cursed. They brought him to Moses—his mother was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

12 A nd they put him in ward, that it might be declared unto them at the mouth of Jehovah.

And they put him in custody until the will of the Lord might be declared to them.

13 A nd Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

And the Lord said to Moses,

14 B ring 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.

Bring him who has cursed out of the camp, and let all who heard him lay their hands upon his head; then let all the congregation stone him.

15 A nd thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.

And you shall say to the Israelites, Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.

16 A nd he that blasphemeth the name of Jehovah, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the sojourner, as the home-born, when he blasphemeth the name of Jehovah, shall be put to death.

And he who blasphemes the Name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him; the stranger as well as he who was born in the land shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.

17 A nd he that smiteth any man mortally shall surely be put to death.

And he who kills any man shall surely be put to death.

18 A nd he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good, life for life.

And he who kills a beast shall make it good, beast for beast.

19 A nd if a man cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:

And if a man causes a blemish or disfigurement on his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:

20 b reach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be rendered unto him.

Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has caused a blemish or disfigurement on a man, so shall it be done to him.

21 A nd he that killeth a beast shall make it good: and he that killeth a man shall be put to death.

He who kills a beast shall replace it; he who kills a man shall be put to death.

22 Y e shall have one manner of law, as well for the sojourner, as for the home-born: for I am Jehovah your God.

You shall have the same law for the sojourner among you as for one of your own nationality, for I am the Lord your God.

23 A nd Moses spake to the children of Israel; and they brought forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the children of Israel did as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Moses spoke to the Israelites, and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp and stoned him with stones. Thus the Israelites did as the Lord commanded Moses.
