Laws for Canaan |
|
|
 |
| Numbers 15:1 |
|
Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:2 |
|
"Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them,
'When you enter the land where you are to live, which I am giving you, |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:3 |
|
then make an offering by fire to the LORD,
a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a special vow, or as a freewill offering
or in your appointed times, to make a soothing aroma to the LORD, from the herd
or from the flock. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:4 |
|
The one who presents his offering shall present
to the LORD a grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with
one-fourth of a hin of oil, |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:5 |
|
and you shall prepare wine for the drink offering,
one-fourth of a hin, with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:6 |
|
Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering
two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil; |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:7 |
|
and for the drink offering you shall offer one-third
of a hin of wine as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:8 |
|
When you prepare a bull as a burnt offering
or a sacrifice, to fulfill a special vow, or for peace offerings to the LORD, |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:9 |
|
then you shall offer with the bull a grain
offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-half a hin of
oil; |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:10 |
|
and you shall offer as the drink offering one-half
a hin of wine as an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:11 |
|
'Thus it shall be done for each ox, or for each
ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the goats. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:12 |
|
According to the number that you prepare, so
you shall do for everyone according to their number. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:13 |
|
All who are native shall do these things in
this manner, in presenting an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Law of the Sojourner |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:14 |
|
If an alien sojourns with you, or one who may
be among you throughout your generations, and he wishes to make an offering by
fire, as a soothing aroma to the LORD, just as you do so he shall do. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:15 |
|
As for the assembly, there shall be one statute
for you and for the alien who sojourns with you, a perpetual statute throughout
your generations; as you are, so shall the alien be before the LORD. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:16 |
|
There is to be one law and one ordinance for
you and for the alien who sojourns with you.'" |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:17 |
|
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:18 |
|
"Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them,
'When you enter the land where I bring you, |
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:19 |
|
then it shall be, that when you eat of the food
of the land, you shall lift up an offering to the LORD. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:20 |
|
Of the first of your dough you shall lift up
a cake as an offering; as the offering of the threshing floor, so you shall lift
it up |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 15:21 |
|
From the first of your dough you shall give
to the LORD an offering throughout your generations. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:22 |
|
'But when you unwittingly fail and do not observe
all these commandments, which the LORD has spoken to Moses, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:23 |
|
even all that the LORD has commanded you through
Moses, from the day when the LORD gave commandment and onward throughout your
generations, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:24 |
|
then it shall be, if it is done unintentionally,
without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer
one bull for a burnt offering, as a soothing aroma to the LORD, with its grain
offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, and one male goat
for a sin offering. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:25 |
|
Then the priest shall make atonement for all
the congregation of the sons of Israel, and they will be forgiven; for it was
an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering by fire to the LORD,
and their sin offering before the LORD, for their error. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:26 |
|
So all the congregation of the sons of Israel
will be forgiven, with the alien who sojourns among them, for it happened to all
the people through error. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:27 |
|
'Also if one person sins unintentionally, then
he shall offer a one year old female goat for a sin offering. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:28 |
|
The priest shall make atonement before the LORD
for the person who goes astray when he sins unintentionally, making atonement
for him that he may be forgiven. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:29 |
|
You shall have one law for him who does anything
unintentionally, for him who is native among the sons of Israel and for the alien
who sojourns among them. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:30 |
|
But the person who does anything defiantly,
whether he is native or an alien, that one is blaspheming the LORD; and that person
shall be cut off from among his people. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:31 |
|
Because he has despised the word of the LORD
and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt
will be on him.'" |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Sabbath-breaking Punished |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:32 |
|
Now while the sons of Israel were in the wilderness,
they found a man gathering wood on the sabbath day. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:33 |
|
Those who found him gathering wood brought
him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation; |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:34 |
|
and they put him in custody because it had not
been declared what should be done to him. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:35 |
|
Then the LORD said to Moses, "The man shall
surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside
the camp." |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:36 |
|
So all the congregation brought him outside
the camp and stoned him to death with stones, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:37 |
|
The LORD also spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:38 |
|
"Speak to the sons of Israel, and tell them
that they shall make for themselves tassels on the corners of their garments throughout
their generations, and that they shall put on the tassel of each corner a cord
of blue. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:39 |
|
It shall be a tassel for you to look at and
remember all the commandments of the LORD, so as to do them and not follow after
your own heart and your own eyes, after which you played the harlot, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:40 |
|
so that you may remember to do all My commandments
and be holy to your God. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 15:41 |
|
I am the LORD your God who brought you out from
the land of Egypt to be your God; I am the LORD your God." |
