Idolatry Forbidden |
|
|
 |
| Leviticus 19:1 |
|
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:2 |
|
"Speak to all the congregation of the sons of
Israel and say to them, 'You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:3 |
|
Every one of you shall reverence his mother
and his father, and you shall keep My sabbaths; I am the LORD your God. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:4 |
|
Do not turn to idols or make for yourselves
molten gods; I am the LORD your God. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:5 |
|
'Now when you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings
to the LORD, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:6 |
|
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it,
and the next day; but what remains until the third day shall be burned with fire. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:7 |
|
So if it is eaten at all on the third day,
it is an offense; it will not be accepted. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:8 |
|
Everyone who eats it will bear his iniquity,
for he has profaned the holy thing of the LORD; and that person shall be cut off
from his people. |
| |

|
|
| Leviticus 19:9 |
|
'Now when you reap the harvest of your land,
you shall not reap to the very corners of your field, nor shall you gather the
gleanings of your harvest. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:10 |
|
Nor shall you glean your vineyard, nor shall
you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the needy
and for the stranger. I am the LORD your God. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:11 |
|
'You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor
lie to one another. |
|
|

to profane the name of your God; I am the LORD. |
|
|
|

him. The wages of a hired man are not to remain with you all night until morning. |
|

stumbling block before the blind, but you shall revere your God; I am the LORD. |

shall not be partial to the poor nor defer to the great, but you are to judge
your neighbor fairly. |
|
|
|

your people, and you are not to act against the life of your neighbor; I am the
LORD. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:17 |
|
'You shall not hate your fellow countryman
in your heart; you may surely reprove your neighbor, but shall not incur sin because
of him. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:18 |
|
You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge
against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself;
I am the LORD. |
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:19 |
|
'You are to keep My statutes. You shall not
breed together two kinds of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with two
kinds of seed, nor wear a garment upon you of two kinds of material mixed together. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:20 |
|
'Now if a man lies carnally with a woman who
is a slave acquired for another man, but who has in no way been redeemed nor given
her freedom, there shall be punishment; they shall not, however, be put to death,
because she was not free. |
| |
|
|
| Leviticus 19:21 |
|
He shall bring his guilt offering to the LORD
to the doorway of the tent of meeting, a ram for a guilt offering. |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:22 |
|
The priest shall also make atonement for him
with the ram of the guilt offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed,
and the sin which he has committed will be forgiven him. |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:23 |
|
'When you enter the land and plant all kinds
of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as forbidden. Three years
it shall be forbidden to you; it shall not be eaten. |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:24 |
|
But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be
holy, an offering of praise to the LORD. |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:25 |
|
In the fifth year you are to eat of its fruit,
that its yield may increase for you; I am the LORD your God. |

nor practice divination or soothsaying. |

heads nor harm the edges of your beard. |

the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD. |

a harlot, so that the land will not fall to harlotry and the land become full

|
You shall keep My sabbaths and revere My sanctuary;
I am the LORD. |

you shall not do him wrong. |
|
|

The stranger who resides with you shall be to
you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were
aliens in the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God. |
|
|
|
|
| Leviticus 19:35 |

of weight, or capacity. |
|
|
|
|

|
You shall have just balances, just weights,
a just ephah, and a just hin; I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from
the land of Egypt. |
|

|
|
| Leviticus 19:37 |
|
You shall thus observe all My statutes and all
My ordinances and do them; I am the LORD.'" |
