¹ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,² Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God [am] holy.³ Ye shall fear every man his mother and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I [am] the LORD your God.⁴ Turn ye not to idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I [am] the LORD your God.⁵ And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings to the LORD, ye shall offer it at your own will.⁶ It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if aught shall remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.⁷ And if it shall be eaten at all on the third day, it [is] abominable; it shall not be accepted.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 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 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 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.¹² And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I [am] the LORD.¹³ Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbor, neither rob [him]: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.¹⁴ Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling-block before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I [am] the LORD.¹⁵ Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: [but] in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor.¹⁶ Thou shalt not go up and down [as] a tale-bearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor; I [am] the LORD.¹⁷ Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbor, and not suffer sin upon him.¹⁸ Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself; I [am] the LORD.

¹⁹ Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle engender with a diverse kind: Thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woolen come upon thee.²⁰ And whoever lieth carnally with a woman that [is] a bond-maid betrothed to a 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 And he shall bring his trespass-offering to the LORD, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, [even] a ram for a trespass-offering.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 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food; then ye shall count its fruit as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised to you: it shall not be eaten of.²⁴ But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy to praise the LORD [with].²⁵ And in the fifth year shall ye eat of its fruit, that it may yield to you its increase: I [am] the LORD your God.²⁶ Ye shall not eat [any thing] with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.²⁷ Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.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 prostitute thy daughter to cause her to be a harlot: lest the land should fall to lewdness, and the land become full of wickedness.

³⁰ Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I [am] the LORD.³¹ Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I [am] the LORD your God.³² Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I [am] the LORD.³³ And if a stranger shall sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not oppress him.³⁴ [But] the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be to 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 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in weight, in measure of length or of capacity.³⁶ Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin shall ye have: I [am] the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.³⁷ Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I [am] the LORD.
