Book 03 Leviticus 001:001 Yahweh called to Moses, and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting, saying, 001:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When anyone of you offers an offering to Yahweh, you shall offer your offering of the livestock, from the herd and from the flock. 001:003 "'If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. He shall offer it at the door of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before Yahweh. 001:004 He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him. 001:005 He shall kill the bull before Yahweh. Aaron's sons, the priests, shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 001:006 He shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into pieces. 001:007 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire; 001:008 and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar; 001:009 but its innards and its legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 001:010 "'If his offering is from the flock, from the sheep, or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall offer a male without blemish. 001:011 He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before Yahweh. Aaron's sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar. 001:012 He shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat. The priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar, 001:013 but the innards and the legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall offer the whole, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 001:014 "'If his offering to Yahweh is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons. 001:015 The priest shall bring it to the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar; 001:016 and he shall take away its crop with its filth, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes. 001:017 He shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 002:001 "'When anyone offers an offering of a meal offering to Yahweh, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense on it. 002:002 He shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests; and he shall take his handful of its fine flour, and of its oil, with all its frankincense; and the priest shall burn the memorial of it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 002:003 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'. It is a most holy thing of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. 002:004 "'When you offer an offering of a meal offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil. 002:005 If your offering is a meal offering of the baking pan, it shall be of unleavened fine flour, mixed with oil. 002:006 You shall cut it in pieces, and pour oil on it. It is a meal offering. 002:007 If your offering is a meal offering of the frying pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. 002:008 You shall bring the meal offering that is made of these things to Yahweh: and it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. 002:009 The priest shall take from the meal offering its memorial, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 002:010 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'. It is a thing most holy of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. 002:011 "'No meal offering, which you shall offer to Yahweh, shall be made with yeast; for you shall burn no yeast, nor any honey, as an offering made by fire to Yahweh. 002:012 As an offering of firstfruits you shall offer them to Yahweh: but they shall not come up for a sweet savor on the altar. 002:013 Every offering of your meal offering you shall season with salt; neither shall you allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your meal offering. With all your offerings you shall offer salt. 002:014 "'If you offer a meal offering of first fruits to Yahweh, you shall offer for the meal offering of your first fruits grain in the ear parched with fire, bruised grain of the fresh ear. 002:015 You shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it: it is a meal offering. 002:016 The priest shall burn as its memorial, part of its bruised grain, and part of its oil, along with all its frankincense: it is an offering made by fire to Yahweh. 003:001 "'If his offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings; if he offers it from the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before Yahweh. 003:002 He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tent of meeting: and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood on the altar round about. 003:003 He shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to Yahweh; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards, 003:004 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away. 003:005 Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. 003:006 "'If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh is from the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish. 003:007 If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before Yahweh; 003:008 and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the tent of meeting: and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about. 003:009 He shall offer from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to Yahweh; its fat, the entire tail fat, he shall take away close to the backbone; and the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards, 003:010 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away. 003:011 The priest shall burn it on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire to Yahweh. 003:012 "'If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before Yahweh: 003:013 and he shall lay his hand on its head, and kill it before the tent of meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about. 003:014 He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire to Yahweh; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards, 003:015 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away. 003:016 The priest shall burn them on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a sweet savor; all the fat is Yahweh's. 003:017 "'It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.'" 004:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 004:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'If anyone sins unintentionally, in any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and does any one of them: 004:003 if the anointed priest sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin, which he has sinned, a young bull without blemish to Yahweh for a sin offering. 004:004 He shall bring the bull to the door of the Tent of Meeting before Yahweh; and he shall lay his hand on the head of the bull, and kill the bull before Yahweh. 004:005 The anointed priest shall take some of the blood of the bull, and bring it to the Tent of Meeting. 004:006 The priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before Yahweh, before the veil of the sanctuary. 004:007 The priest shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting; and he shall pour out all of rest of the blood of the bull at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 004:008 He shall take all the fat of the bull of the sin offering off of it; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards, 004:009 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away, 004:010 as it is taken off of the ox of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering. 004:011 The bull's skin, all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, its innards, and its dung, 004:012 even the whole bull shall he carry forth outside the camp to a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn it on wood with fire. Where the ashes are poured out it shall be burned. 004:013 "'If the whole congregation of Israel sins, and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and are guilty; 004:014 when the sin in which they have sinned is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for a sin offering, and bring it before the Tent of Meeting. 004:015 The elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before Yahweh; and the bull shall be killed before Yahweh. 004:016 The anointed priest shall bring of the blood of the bull to the Tent of Meeting: 004:017 and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before Yahweh, before the veil. 004:018 He shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before Yahweh, that is in the Tent of Meeting; and the rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 004:019 All its fat he shall take from it, and burn it on the altar. 004:020 Thus shall he do with the bull; as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so shall he do with this; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven. 004:021 He shall carry forth the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is the sin offering for the assembly. 004:022 "'When a ruler sins, and unwittingly does any one of all the things which Yahweh his God has commanded not to be done, and is guilty; 004:023 if his sin, in which he has sinned, is made known to him, he shall bring as his offering a goat, a male without blemish. 004:024 He shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Yahweh. It is a sin offering. 004:025 The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering. He shall pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering. 004:026 All its fat he shall burn on the altar, like the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin, and he will be forgiven. 004:027 "'If anyone of the common people sins unwittingly, in doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and is guilty; 004:028 if his sin, which he has sinned, is made known to him, then he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has sinned. 004:029 He shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill the sin offering in the place of burnt offering. 004:030 The priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar. 004:031 All its fat he shall take away, like the fat is taken away from off of the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a sweet savor to Yahweh; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven. 004:032 "'If he brings a lamb as his offering for a sin offering, he shall bring a female without blemish. 004:033 He shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering. 004:034 The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and all the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar. 004:035 All its fat he shall take away, like the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them on the altar, on the offerings of Yahweh made by fire; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned, and he will be forgiven. 005:001 "'If anyone sins, in that he hears the voice of adjuration, he being a witness, whether he has seen or known, if he doesn't report it, then he shall bear his iniquity. 005:002 "'Or if anyone touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean animal, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it is hidden from him, and he is unclean, then he shall be guilty. 005:003 "'Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness is with which he is unclean, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty. 005:004 "'Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man might utter rashly with an oath, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty of one of these. 005:005 It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall confess that in which he has sinned: 005:006 and he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh for his sin which he has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin. 005:007 "'If he can't afford a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to Yahweh; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. 005:008 He shall bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one which is for the sin offering, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not sever it completely. 005:009 He shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. 005:010 He shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the ordinance; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has sinned, and he shall be forgiven. 005:011 "'But if he can't afford two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his offering for that in which he has sinned, the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it, neither shall he put any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering. 005:012 He shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as the memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, on the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. It is a sin offering. 005:013 The priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in any of these things, and he will be forgiven; and the rest shall be the priest's, as the meal offering.'" 005:014 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 005:015 "If anyone commits a trespass, and sins unwittingly, in the holy things of Yahweh; then he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh, a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering. 005:016 He shall make restitution for that which he has done wrong in the holy thing, and shall add a fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and he will be forgiven. 005:017 "If anyone sins, and does any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done; though he didn't know it, yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity. 005:018 He shall bring a ram without blemish from of the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning the thing in which he sinned and didn't know it, and he will be forgiven. 005:019 It is a trespass offering. He is certainly guilty before Yahweh." 006:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 006:002 "If anyone sins, and commits a trespass against Yahweh, and deals falsely with his neighbor in a matter of deposit, or of bargain, or of robbery, or has oppressed his neighbor, 006:003 or has found that which was lost, and dealt falsely therein, and swearing to a lie; in any of all these things that a man does, sinning therein; 006:004 then it shall be, if he has sinned, and is guilty, he shall restore that which he took by robbery, or the thing which he has gotten by oppression, or the deposit which was committed to him, or the lost thing which he found, 006:005 or any thing about which he has sworn falsely; he shall restore it even in full, and shall add a fifth part more to it. To him to whom it belongs he shall give it, in the day of his being found guilty. 006:006 He shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh, a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest. 006:007 The priest shall make atonement for him before Yahweh, and he will be forgiven concerning whatever he does to become guilty." 006:008 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 006:009 "Command Aaron and his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the burnt offering: the burnt offering shall be on the hearth on the altar all night until the morning; and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it. 006:010 The priest shall put on his linen garment, and he shall put on his linen breeches upon his body; and he shall remove the ashes from where the fire has consumed the burnt offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar. 006:011 He shall take off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. 006:012 The fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it, it shall not go out; and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning: and he shall lay the burnt offering in order upon it, and shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings. 006:013 Fire shall be kept burning on the altar continually; it shall not go out. 006:014 "'This is the law of the meal offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before Yahweh, before the altar. 006:015 He shall take from there his handful of the fine flour of the meal offering, and of its oil, and all the frankincense which is on the meal offering, and shall burn it on the altar for a sweet savor, as its memorial, to Yahweh. 006:016 That which is left of it Aaron and his sons shall eat. It shall be eaten without yeast in a holy place. They shall eat it in the court of the Tent of Meeting 006:017 It shall not be baked with yeast. I have given it as their portion of my offerings made by fire. It is most holy, as the sin offering, and as the trespass offering. 006:018 Every male among the children of Aaron shall eat of it, as their portion forever throughout your generations, from the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. Whoever touches them shall be holy.'" 006:019 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 006:020 "This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer to Yahweh in the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering perpetually, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening. 006:021 It shall be made with oil in a baking pan. When it is soaked, you shall bring it in. You shall offer the meal offering in baked pieces for a sweet savor to Yahweh. 006:022 The anointed priest that will be in his place from among his sons shall offer it. By a statute forever, it shall be wholly burnt to Yahweh. 006:023 Every meal offering of a priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten." 006:024 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 006:025 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the sin offering: in the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering shall be killed before Yahweh. It is most holy. 006:026 The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the Tent of Meeting. 006:027 Whatever shall touch its flesh shall be holy. When there is any of its blood sprinkled on a garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled in a holy place. 006:028 But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken; and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, it shall be scoured, and rinsed in water. 006:029 Every male among the priests shall eat of it: it is most holy. 006:030 No sin offering, of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be eaten: it shall be burned with fire. 007:001 "'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy. 007:002 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle on the altar round about. 007:003 He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the innards, 007:004 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away; 007:005 and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to Yahweh: it is a trespass offering. 007:006 Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy. 007:007 "'As is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with them shall have it. 007:008 The priest who offers any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered. 007:009 Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying pan, and on the baking pan, shall be the priest's who offers it. 007:010 Every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aaron, one as well as another. 007:011 "'This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh. 007:012 If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed with oil. 007:013 With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering with the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving. 007:014 Of it he shall offer one out of each offering for a heave offering to Yahweh. It shall be the priest's who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings. 007:015 The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his offering. He shall not leave any of it until the morning. 007:016 "'But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice; and on the next day what remains of it shall be eaten: 007:017 but what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire. 007:018 If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed to him who offers it. It will be an abomination, and the soul who eats any of it will bear his iniquity. 007:019 "'The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. As for the flesh, everyone who is clean may eat it; 007:020 but the soul who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that belongs to Yahweh, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people. 007:021 When anyone touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats some of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to Yahweh, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'" 007:022 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 007:023 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'You shall eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat. 007:024 The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall in no way eat of it. 007:025 For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh, even the soul who eats it shall be cut off from his people. 007:026 You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or of animal, in any of your dwellings. 007:027 Whoever it is who eats any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'" 007:028 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 007:029 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to Yahweh shall bring his offering to Yahweh out of the sacrifice of his peace offerings. 007:030 With his own hands he shall bring the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before Yahweh. 007:031 The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'. 007:032 The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 007:033 He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion. 007:034 For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel.'" 007:035 This is the anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to Yahweh in the priest's office; 007:036 which Yahweh commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion forever throughout their generations. 007:037 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meal offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings; 007:038 which Yahweh commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to Yahweh, in the wilderness of Sinai. 008:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 008:002 "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread; 008:003 and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting." 008:004 Moses did as Yahweh commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 008:005 Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded to be done." 008:006 Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water. 008:007 He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him with the robe, put the ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven band of the ephod on him, and fastened it to him with it. 008:008 He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put the Urim and the Thummim. 008:009 He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as Yahweh commanded Moses. 008:010 Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them. 008:011 He sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its vessels, and the basin and its base, to sanctify them. 008:012 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him. 008:013 Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, and tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; as Yahweh commanded Moses. 008:014 He brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering. 008:015 He killed it; and Moses took the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and sanctified it, to make atonement for it. 008:016 He took all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses burned it on the altar. 008:017 But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp; as Yahweh commanded Moses. 008:018 He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. 008:019 He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar round about. 008:020 He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat. 008:021 He washed the innards and the legs with water; and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a sweet savor. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh; as Yahweh commanded Moses. 008:022 He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. 008:023 He killed it; and Moses took some of its blood, and put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot. 008:024 He brought Aaron's sons; and Moses put some of the blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar round about. 008:025 He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right thigh; 008:026 and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before Yahweh, he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh. 008:027 He put all these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before Yahweh. 008:028 Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar on the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a sweet savor. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh. 008:029 Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It was Moses' portion of the ram of consecration, as Yahweh commanded Moses. 008:030 Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood which was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him, and sanctified Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him. 008:031 Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons shall eat it.' 008:032 What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire. 008:033 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: for he shall consecrate you seven days. 008:034 What has been done this day, so Yahweh has commanded to do, to make atonement for you. 008:035 At the door of the Tent of Meeting you shall stay day and night seven days, and keep the charge of Yahweh, that you don't die: for so I am commanded." 008:036 Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh commanded by Moses. 009:001 It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel; 009:002 and he said to Aaron, "Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before Yahweh. 009:003 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Take a male goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, without blemish, for a burnt offering; 009:004 and an ox and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before Yahweh; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today Yahweh appears to you.'" 009:005 They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting: and all the congregation drew near and stood before Yahweh. 009:006 Moses said, "This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that you should do: and the glory of Yahweh shall appear to you." 009:007 Moses said to Aaron, "Draw near to the altar, and offer your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as Yahweh commanded." 009:008 So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself. 009:009 The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar: 009:010 but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; as Yahweh commanded Moses. 009:011 The flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp. 009:012 He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons delivered the blood to him, and he sprinkled it on the altar round about. 009:013 They delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and the head: and he burned them upon the altar. 009:014 He washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar. 009:015 He presented the people's offering, and took the goat of the sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, like the first. 009:016 He presented the burnt offering, and offered it according to the ordinance. 009:017 He presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there, and burned it upon the altar, besides the burnt offering of the morning. 009:018 He also killed the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar round about, 009:019 and the fat of the ox and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover of the liver: 009:020 and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat on the altar: 009:021 and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave offering before Yahweh, as Moses commanded. 009:022 Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings. 009:023 Moses and Aaron went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the people. 009:024 There came forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed the burnt offering and the fat upon the altar: and when all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces. 010:001 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them. 010:002 And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh. 010:003 Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, 'I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.'" Aaron held his peace. 010:004 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp." 010:005 So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said. 010:006 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, "Don't let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you don't die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled. 010:007 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you." They did according to the word of Moses. 010:008 Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying, 010:009 "Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don't die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations: 010:010 and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean; 010:011 and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses." 010:012 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, "Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy; 010:013 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons' portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire: for so I am commanded. 010:014 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons' portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel. 010:015 The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons' with you, as a portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded." 010:016 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying, 010:017 "Why haven't you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, seeing it is most holy, and he has given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh? 010:018 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded." 010:019 Aaron spoke to Moses, "Behold, this day they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?" 010:020 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight. 011:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them, 011:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth. 011:003 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat. 011:004 "'Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you. 011:005 The coney, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you. 011:006 The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn't part the hoof, she is unclean to you. 011:007 The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn't chew the cud, he is unclean to you. 011:008 Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you. 011:009 "'These you may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat. 011:010 All that don't have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you, 011:011 and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses. 011:012 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination to you. 011:013 "'These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the vulture, and the black vulture, 011:014 and the red kite, any kind of black kite, 011:015 any kind of raven, 011:016 the horned owl, the screech owl, and the gull, any kind of hawk, 011:017 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, 011:018 the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey, 011:019 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat. 011:020 "'All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you. 011:021 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop on the earth. 011:022 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper. 011:023 But all winged creeping things which have four feet, are an abomination to you. 011:024 "'By these you will become unclean: whoever touches the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening. 011:025 Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. 011:026 "'Every animal which parts the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean. 011:027 Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening. 011:028 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you. 011:029 "'These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard, 011:030 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon. 011:031 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening. 011:032 On whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it will be clean. 011:033 Every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it. 011:034 All food which may be eaten, that on which water comes, shall be unclean; and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean. 011:035 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you. 011:036 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is a gathered shall be clean: but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean. 011:037 If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean. 011:038 But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you. 011:039 "'If any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening. 011:040 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. 011:041 "'Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten. 011:042 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination. 011:043 You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled thereby. 011:044 For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth. 011:045 For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. 011:046 "'This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth, 011:047 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.'" 012:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 012:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'If a woman conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she shall be unclean. 012:003 In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. 012:004 She shall continue in the blood of purification thirty-three days. She shall not touch any holy thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed. 012:005 But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her period; and she shall continue in the blood of purification sixty-six days. 012:006 "'When the days of her purification are completed, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the door of the Tent of Meeting, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering: 012:007 and he shall offer it before Yahweh, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. "'This is the law for her who bears, whether a male or a female. 012:008 If she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.'" 013:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 013:002 "When a man shall have a rising in his body's skin, or a scab, or a bright spot, and it becomes in the skin of his body the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests: 013:003 and the priest shall examine the plague in the skin of the body: and if the hair in the plague has turned white, and the appearance of the plague is deeper than the body's skin, it is the plague of leprosy; and the priest shall examine him, and pronounce him unclean. 013:004 If the bright spot is white in the skin of his body, and the appearance of it isn't deeper than the skin, and the hair of it hasn't turned white, then the priest shall isolate the infected person for seven days. 013:005 The priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and, behold, if in his eyes the plague is arrested, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall isolate him for seven more days. 013:006 The priest shall examine him again on the seventh day; and behold, if the plague has faded, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean. 013:007 But if the scab spreads on the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall show himself to the priest again. 013:008 The priest shall examine him; and behold, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is leprosy. 013:009 "When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest; 013:010 and the priest shall examine him. Behold, if there is a white rising in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the rising, 013:011 it is a chronic leprosy in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not isolate him, for he is unclean. 013:012 "If the leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of the infected person from his head even to his feet, as far as it appears to the priest; 013:013 then the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean of the plague. It has all turned white: he is clean. 013:014 But whenever raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean. 013:015 The priest shall examine the raw flesh, and pronounce him unclean: the raw flesh is unclean. It is leprosy. 013:016 Or if the raw flesh turns again, and is changed to white, then he shall come to the priest; 013:017 and the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean of the plague. He is clean. 013:018 "When the body has a boil on its skin, and it has healed, 013:019 and in the place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be shown to the priest; 013:020 and the priest shall examine it; and behold, if the appearance of it is lower than the skin, and the hair of it has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. It has broken out in the boil. 013:021 But if the priest examines it, and behold, there are no white hairs in it, and it isn't deeper than the skin, but is dim, then the priest shall isolate him seven days. 013:022 If it spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is a plague. 013:023 But if the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread, it is the scar from the boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean. 013:024 "Or when the body has a burn from fire on its skin, and the raw flesh of the burn becomes a bright spot, reddish-white, or white, 013:025 then the priest shall examine it; and behold, if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and the appearance of it is deeper than the skin; it is leprosy. It has broken out in the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. 013:026 But if the priest examines it, and behold, there is no white hair in the bright spot, and it isn't lower than the skin, but is faded; then the priest shall isolate him seven days. 013:027 The priest shall examine him on the seventh day. If it has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. 013:028 If the bright spot stays in its place, and hasn't spread in the skin, but is faded, it is the swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce him clean; for it is the scar from the burn. 013:029 "When a man or woman has a plague on the head or on the beard, 013:030 then the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if the appearance of it is deeper than the skin, and the hair in it is yellow and thin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is an itch, it is leprosy of the head or of the beard. 013:031 If the priest examines the plague of itching, and behold, its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall isolate him the person infected with itching seven days. 013:032 On the seventh day the priest shall examine the plague; and behold, if the itch hasn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the appearance of the itch isn't deeper than the skin, 013:033 then he shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the itch; and the priest shall shut him up who has the itch seven more days. 013:034 On the seventh day, the priest shall examine the itch; and behold, if the itch hasn't spread in the skin, and its appearance isn't deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. He shall wash his clothes, and be clean. 013:035 But if the itch spreads in the skin after his cleansing, 013:036 then the priest shall examine him; and behold, if the itch has spread in the skin, the priest shall not look for the yellow hair; he is unclean. 013:037 But if in his eyes the itch is arrested, and black hair has grown in it; the itch is healed, he is clean. The priest shall pronounce him clean. 013:038 "When a man or a woman has bright spots in the skin of the body, even white bright spots; 013:039 then the priest shall examine them; and behold, if the bright spots on the skin of their body are a dull white, it is a harmless rash, it has broken out in the skin; he is clean. 013:040 "If a man's hair has fallen from his head, he is bald. He is clean. 013:041 If his hair has fallen off from the front part of his head, he is forehead bald. He is clean. 013:042 But if there is in the bald head, or the bald forehead, a reddish-white plague; it is leprosy breaking out in his bald head, or his bald forehead. 013:043 Then the priest shall examine him; and, behold, if the rising of the plague is reddish-white in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, like the appearance of leprosy in the skin of the flesh, 013:044 he is a leprous man. He is unclean. The priest shall surely pronounce him unclean. His plague is on his head. 013:045 "The leper in whom the plague is shall wear torn clothes, and the hair of his head shall hang loose. He shall cover his upper lip, and shall cry, 'Unclean! Unclean!' 013:046 All the days in which the plague is in him he shall be unclean. He is unclean. He shall dwell alone. Outside of the camp shall be his dwelling. 013:047 "The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it is a woolen garment, or a linen garment; 013:048 whether it is in warp, or woof; of linen, or of wool; whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin; 013:049 if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, or in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything made of skin; it is the plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest. 013:050 The priest shall examine the plague, and isolate the plague seven days. 013:051 He shall examine the plague on the seventh day. If the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in the skin, whatever use the skin is used for, the plague is a destructive mildew. It is unclean. 013:052 He shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is: for it is a destructive mildew. It shall be burned in the fire. 013:053 "If the priest examines it, and behold, the plague hasn't spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin; 013:054 then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall isolate it seven more days. 013:055 Then the priest shall examine it, after the plague is washed; and behold, if the plague hasn't changed its color, and the plague hasn't spread, it is unclean; you shall burn it in the fire. It is a mildewed spot, whether the bareness is inside or outside. 013:056 If the priest looks, and behold, the plague has faded after it is washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof: 013:057 and if it appears again in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is spreading. You shall burn with fire that in which the plague is. 013:058 The garment, either the warp, or the woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, which you shall wash, if the plague has departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and it will be clean." 013:059 This is the law of the plague of mildew in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or the woof, or in anything of skin, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean. 014:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 014:002 "This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing. He shall be brought to the priest, 014:003 and the priest shall go forth out of the camp. The priest shall examine him, and behold, if the plague of leprosy is healed in the leper, 014:004 then the priest shall command them to take for him who is to be cleansed two living clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop. 014:005 The priest shall command them to kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water. 014:006 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water. 014:007 He shall sprinkle on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird go into the open field. 014:008 "He who is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and bathe himself in water; and he shall be clean. After that he shall come into the camp, but shall dwell outside his tent seven days. 014:009 It shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off. He shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his body in water, then he shall be clean. 014:010 "On the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish, and three tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil. 014:011 The priest who cleanses him shall set the man who is to be cleansed, and those things, before Yahweh, at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 014:012 "The priest shall take one of the male lambs, and offer him for a trespass offering, with the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before Yahweh. 014:013 He shall kill the male lamb in the place where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the place of the sanctuary; for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the trespass offering. It is most holy. 014:014 The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. 014:015 The priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand. 014:016 The priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before Yahweh. 014:017 The priest shall put some of the rest of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering. 014:018 The rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before Yahweh. 014:019 "The priest shall offer the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness: and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering; 014:020 and the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meal offering on the altar. The priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean. 014:021 "If he is poor, and can't afford so much, then he shall take one male lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one tenth of an ephah of fine flour mingled with oil for a meal offering, and a log of oil; 014:022 and two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to afford; and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering. 014:023 "On the eighth day he shall bring them for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, before Yahweh. 014:024 The priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before Yahweh. 014:025 He shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering. The priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. 014:026 The priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand; 014:027 and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before Yahweh. 014:028 Then the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass offering. 014:029 The rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before Yahweh. 014:030 He shall offer one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, such as he is able to afford, 014:031 even such as he is able to afford, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meal offering. The priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before Yahweh." 014:032 This is the law for him in whom is the plague of leprosy, who is not able to afford the sacrifice for his cleansing. 014:033 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 014:034 "When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in the land of your possession, 014:035 then he who owns the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, 'There seems to me to be some sort of plague in the house.' 014:036 The priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest goes in to examine the plague, that all that is in the house not be made unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to inspect the house. 014:037 He shall examine the plague; and behold, if the plague is in the walls of the house with hollow streaks, greenish or reddish, and it appears to be deeper than the wall; 014:038 then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days. 014:039 The priest shall come again on the seventh day, and look. If the plague has spread in the walls of the house, 014:040 then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the plague, and cast them into an unclean place outside of the city: 014:041 and he shall cause the inside of the house to be scraped round about, and they shall pour out the mortar, that they scraped off, outside of the city into an unclean place. 014:042 They shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house. 014:043 "If the plague comes again, and breaks out in the house, after he has taken out the stones, and after he has scraped the house, and after it was plastered; 014:044 then the priest shall come in and look; and behold, if the plague has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew in the house. It is unclean. 014:045 He shall break down the house, its stones, and its timber, and all the house's mortar. He shall carry them out of the city into an unclean place. 014:046 "Moreover he who goes into the house while it is shut up shall be unclean until the evening. 014:047 He who lies down in the house shall wash his clothes; and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes. 014:048 "If the priest shall come in, and examine it, and behold, the plague hasn't spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed. 014:049 To cleanse the house he shall take two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop. 014:050 He shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water. 014:051 He shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times. 014:052 He shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, with the living bird, with the cedar wood, with the hyssop, and with the scarlet; 014:053 but he shall let the living bird go out of the city into the open field. So shall he make atonement for the house; and it shall be clean." 014:054 This is the law for any plague of leprosy, and for an itch, 014:055 and for the destructive mildew of a garment, and for a house, 014:056 and for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot; 014:057 to teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean. This is the law of leprosy. 015:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 015:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When any man has a discharge from his body, because of his discharge he is unclean. 015:003 This shall be his uncleanness in his discharge: whether his body runs with his discharge, or his body has stopped from his discharge, it is his uncleanness. 015:004 "'Every bed whereon he who has the discharge lies shall be unclean; and everything he sits on shall be unclean. 015:005 Whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:006 He who sits on anything whereon the man who has the discharge sat shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:007 "'He who touches the body of him who has the discharge shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:008 "'If he who has the discharge spits on him who is clean, then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:009 "'Whatever saddle he who has the discharge rides on shall be unclean. 015:010 Whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until the evening. He who carries those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:011 "'Whoever he who has the discharge touches, without having rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:012 "'The earthen vessel, which he who has the discharge touches, shall be broken; and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water. 015:013 "'When he who has a discharge is cleansed of his discharge, then he shall count to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes; and he shall bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean. 015:014 "'On the eighth day he shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and come before Yahweh to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the priest: 015:015 and the priest shall offer them, the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. The priest shall make atonement for him before Yahweh for his discharge. 015:016 "'If any man has an emission of semen, then he shall bathe all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:017 Every garment, and every skin, whereon the semen is, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:018 If a man lies with a woman and there is an emission of semen, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:019 "'If a woman has a discharge, and her discharge in her flesh is blood, she shall be in her impurity seven days: and whoever touches her shall be unclean until the evening. 015:020 "'Everything that she lies on in her impurity shall be unclean. Everything also that she sits on shall be unclean. 015:021 Whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:022 Whoever touches anything that she sits on shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:023 If it is on the bed, or on anything whereon she sits, when he touches it, he shall be unclean until the evening. 015:024 "'If any man lies with her, and her monthly flow is on him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed whereon he lies shall be unclean. 015:025 "'If a woman has a discharge of her blood many days not in the time of her period, or if she has a discharge beyond the time of her period; all the days of the discharge of her uncleanness shall be as in the days of her period: she is unclean. 015:026 Every bed whereon she lies all the days of her discharge shall be to her as the bed of her period: and everything whereon she sits shall be unclean, as the uncleanness of her period. 015:027 Whoever touches these things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. 015:028 "'But if she is cleansed of her discharge, then she shall count to herself seven days, and after that she shall be clean. 015:029 On the eighth day she shall take two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and bring them to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting. 015:030 The priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her before Yahweh for the uncleanness of her discharge. 015:031 "'Thus you shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness, so they will not die in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is in their midst.'" 015:032 This is the law of him who has a discharge, and of him who has an emission of semen, so that he is unclean thereby; 015:033 and of her who has her period, and of a man or woman who has a discharge, and of him who lies with her who is unclean. 016:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before Yahweh, and died; 016:002 and Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron your brother, not to come at all times into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die: for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat. 016:003 "Herewith shall Aaron come into the sanctuary: with a young bull for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering. 016:004 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be dressed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on. 016:005 He shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering. 016:006 "Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house. 016:007 He shall take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 016:008 Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats; one lot for Yahweh, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 016:009 Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for Yahweh, and offer him for a sin offering. 016:010 But the goat, on which the lot fell for the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before Yahweh, to make atonement for him, to send him away for the scapegoat into the wilderness. 016:011 "Aaron shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. 016:012 He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil: 016:013 and he shall put the incense on the fire before Yahweh, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the testimony, so that he will not die. 016:014 He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times. 016:015 "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat: 016:016 and he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the midst of their uncleanness. 016:017 There shall be no one in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel. 016:018 "He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it on the horns of the altar round about. 016:019 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel. 016:020 "When he has made an end of atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat. 016:021 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness. 016:022 The goat shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall let the goat go in the wilderness. 016:023 "Aaron shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there. 016:024 Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people. 016:025 The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar. 016:026 "He who lets the goat go for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 016:027 The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried forth outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire. 016:028 He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 016:029 "It shall be a statute to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and shall do no manner of work, the native-born, or the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you: 016:030 for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins you shall be clean before Yahweh. 016:031 It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls; it is a statute forever. 016:032 The priest, who is anointed and who is consecrated to be priest in his father's place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments. 016:033 Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. 016:034 "This shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel once in the year because of all their sins." It was done as Yahweh commanded Moses. 017:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 017:002 "Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: 'This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded, 017:003 Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp, 017:004 and hasn't brought it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to offer it as an offering to Yahweh before the tabernacle of Yahweh: blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people. 017:005 This is to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they may bring them to Yahweh, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh. 017:006 The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet savor to Yahweh. 017:007 They shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols, after which they play the prostitute. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.' 017:008 "You shall say to them, 'Any man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice, 017:009 and doesn't bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to sacrifice it to Yahweh; that man shall be cut off from his people. 017:010 "'Any man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people. 017:011 For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life. 017:012 Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, "No person among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood." 017:013 "'Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten; he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust. 017:014 For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life: therefore I said to the children of Israel, "You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off." 017:015 "'Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then he shall be clean. 017:016 But if he doesn't wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.'" 018:001 Yahweh said to Moses, 018:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, 'I am Yahweh your God. 018:003 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived: and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you; neither shall you walk in their statutes. 018:004 You shall do my ordinances, and you shall keep my statutes, and walk in them: I am Yahweh your God. 018:005 You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances; which if a man does, he shall live in them: I am Yahweh. 018:006 "'None of you shall approach anyone who are his close relatives, to uncover their nakedness: I am Yahweh. 018:007 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, nor the nakedness of your mother: she is your mother. You shall not uncover her nakedness. 018:008 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife: it is your father's nakedness. 018:009 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home, or born abroad. 018:010 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son's daughter, or of your daughter's daughter, even their nakedness: for theirs is your own nakedness. 018:011 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife's daughter, conceived by your father, since she is your sister. 018:012 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister: she is your father's near kinswoman. 018:013 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister: for she is your mother's near kinswoman. 018:014 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother, you shall not approach his wife: she is your aunt. 018:015 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law: she is your son's wife.

You shall not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen: it is wickedness. 018:018 "'You shall not take a wife to her sister, to be a rival, to uncover her nakedness, while her sister is yet alive. 018:019 "'You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness. 018:020 "'You shall not lie carnally with your neighbor's wife, and defile yourself with her. 018:021 "'You shall not give any of your children to sacrifice to Molech; neither shall you profane the name of your God: I am Yahweh. 018:022 "'You shall not lie with a man, as with a woman. That is detestable. 018:023 "'You shall not lie with any animal to defile yourself with it; neither shall any woman give herself to an animal, to lie down with it: it is a perversion. 018:024 "'Don't defile yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations which I am casting out before you were defiled. 018:025 The land was defiled: therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out her inhabitants. 018:026 You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the native-born, nor the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you; 018:027 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land became defiled); 018:028 that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 018:029 "'For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people. 018:030 Therefore you shall keep my charge, that you do not practice any of these abominable customs, which were practiced before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them: I am Yahweh your God.'" 019:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 019:002 "Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy. 019:003 "'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father.
