¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, ² Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. ³ Outside of the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations. ⁴ He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure lampstand before Yahweh continually. ⁵ You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenth parts [of an ephah] shall be in one cake. ⁶ You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure table before Yahweh. ⁷ You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Yahweh. ⁸ Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before Yahweh continually; it is on the behalf of the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant. ⁹ It shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire by a perpetual statute.

¹⁰ The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp: ¹¹ and the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. ¹² They put him in custody, that it might be declared to them at the mouth of Yahweh. ¹³ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, ¹⁴ Bring forth him who has cursed outside of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him. ¹⁵ You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin. ¹⁶ He who blasphemes the name of Yahweh, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the sojourner, as the home-born, when he blasphemes the name [of Yahweh], shall be put to death. ¹⁷ He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death. ¹⁸ He who strikes a animal mortally shall make it good, life for life. ¹⁹ If a man cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him: ²⁰ breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be rendered to him. ²¹ He who kills a animal shall make it good: and he who kills a man shall be put to death. ²² You shall have one kind of law, as well for the sojourner, as for the home-born: for I am Yahweh your God. ²³ Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought forth him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as Yahweh commanded Moses.
