LEVITICUS
1:1: And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out
of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
1:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, ye shall
bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of
the flock.
1:3: If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let
him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his
own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation
before the LORD.
1:4: And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt
offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement
for him.
1:5: And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and the
priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle
the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation.
1:6: And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into
his pieces.
1:7: And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon
the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
1:8: And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the
head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire
which is upon the altar:
1:9: But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water:
and the priest shall burn all on the altar, to be a burnt
sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto
the LORD.
1:10: And if his offering be of the flocks, namely, of the
sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring
it a male without blemish.
1:11: And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward
before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle
his blood round about upon the altar.
1:12: And he shall cut it into his pieces, with his head and
his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood
that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
1:13: But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water:
and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon the altar:
it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet
savour unto the LORD.
1:14: And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the LORD
be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves,
or of young pigeons.
1:15: And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring
off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof
shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:
1:16: And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers,
and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place
of the ashes:
1:17: And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, but shall
not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the
altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt
sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto
the LORD.
2:1: And when any will offer a meat offering unto the LORD,
his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil
upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
2:2: And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and
he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and
of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and
the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, to
be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD:
2:3: And the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's
and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings of
the LORD made by fire.
2:4: And if thou bring an oblation of a meat offering baken
in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled
with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
2:5: And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in a pan,
it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
2:6: Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it
is a meat offering.
2:7: And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in the fryingpan,
it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
2:8: And thou shalt bring the meat offering that is made of
these things unto the LORD: and when it is presented unto
the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar.
2:9: And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial
thereof, and shall burn it upon the altar: it is an offering
made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
2:10: And that which is left of the meat offering shall be
Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings
of the LORD made by fire.
2:11: No meat offering, which ye shall bring unto the LORD,
shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no leaven, nor
any honey, in any offering of the LORD made by fire.
2:12: As for the oblation of the firstfruits, ye shall offer
them unto the LORD: but they shall not be burnt on the altar
for a sweet savour.
2:13: And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season
with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant
of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all
thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
2:14: And if thou offer a meat offering of thy firstfruits
unto the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat offering of thy
firstfruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, even corn
beaten out of full ears.
2:15: And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense
thereon: it is a meat offering.
2:16: And the priest shall burn the memorial of it, part of
the beaten corn thereof, and part of the oil thereof, with
all the frankincense thereof: it is an offering made by fire
unto the LORD.
3:1: And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering,
if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a male or female,
he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD.
3:2: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering,
and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon
the altar round about.
3:3: And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering
an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth
the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
3:4: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which
is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys,
it shall he take away.
3:5: And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the
burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood that is on the fire:
it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the
LORD.
3:6: And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace offering
unto the LORD be of the flock; male or female, he shall offer
it without blemish.
3:7: If he offer a lamb for his offering, then shall he offer
it before the LORD.
3:8: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering,
and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and
Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof round about
upon the altar.
3:9: And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering
an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat thereof, and
the whole rump, it shall he take off hard by the backbone;
and the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that
is upon the inwards,
3:10: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them,
which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with
the kidneys, it shall he take away.
3:11: And the priest shall burn it upon the altar: it is the
food of the offering made by fire unto the LORD.
3:12: And if his offering be a goat, then he shall offer it
before the LORD.
3:13: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and kill
it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons
of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round
about.
3:14: And he shall offer thereof his offering, even an offering
made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards,
and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
3:15: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them,
which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with
the kidneys, it shall he take away.
3:16: And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is
the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savour:
all the fat is the LORD's.
3:17: It shall be a perpetual statute for your generations
throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor
blood.
4:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
4:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul
shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments
of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done,
and shall do against any of them:
4:3: If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the
sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he
hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD
for a sin offering.
4:4: And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation before the LORD; and shall lay his hand
upon the bullock's head, and kill the bullock before the LORD.
4:5: And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock's
blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation:
4:6: And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and
sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD, before
the vail of the sanctuary.
4:7: And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns
of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD, which is in
the tabernacle of the congregation: and shall pour all the
blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt
offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4:8: And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock
for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and
all the fat that is upon the inwards,
4:9: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which
is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys,
it shall he take away,
4:10: As it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice
of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them upon the
altar of the burnt offering.
4:11: And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with
his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,
4:12: Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without
the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out,
and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured
out shall he be burnt.
4:13: And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through
ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly,
and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments
of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and
are guilty;
4:14: When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is
known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for
the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.
4:15: And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands
upon the head of the bullock before the LORD: and the bullock
shall be killed before the LORD.
4:16: And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock's
blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:
4:17: And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood,
and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, even before the
vail.
4:18: And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of
the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the tabernacle
of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the
bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4:19: And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it
upon the altar.
4:20: And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the
bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and
the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall
be forgiven them.
4:21: And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp,
and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering
for the congregation.
4:22: When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through
ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD his
God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;
4:23: Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge;
he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male without
blemish:
4:24: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat,
and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering
before the LORD: it is a sin offering.
4:25: And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering
with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of
burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom
of the altar of burnt offering.
4:26: And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the
fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall
make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall
be forgiven him.
4:27: And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance,
while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of
the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and
be guilty;
4:28: Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge:
then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female
without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
4:29: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering,
and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.
4:30: And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with
his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt
offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar.
4:31: And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat
is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and
the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour
unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an atonement for
him, and it shall be forgiven him.
4:32: And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall
bring it a female without blemish.
4:33: And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering,
and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill
the burnt offering.
4:34: And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering
with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of
burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at
the bottom of the altar:
4:35: And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat
of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace
offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar,
according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: and
the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath
committed, and it shall be forgiven him.
5:1: And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and
is a witness, whether he hath seen or known of it; if he do
not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
5:2: Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a
carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle,
or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden
from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.
5:3: Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness
it be that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from
him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty.
5:4: Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his lips to do evil,
or to do good, whatsoever it be that a man shall pronounce
with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it,
then he shall be guilty in one of these.
5:5: And it shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these
things, that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that
thing:
5:6: And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD
for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from the flock,
a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and the
priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
5:7: And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall
bring for his trespass, which he hath committed, two turtledoves,
or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a sin offering,
and the other for a burnt offering.
5:8: And he shall bring them unto the priest, who shall offer
that which is for the sin offering first, and wring off his
head from his neck, but shall not divide it asunder:
5:9: And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering
upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall
be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering.
5:10: And he shall offer the second for a burnt offering,
according to the manner: and the priest shall make an atonement
for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall be
forgiven him.
5:11: But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two
young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering
the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering;
he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense
thereon: for it is a sin offering.
5:12: Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the priest
shall take his handful of it, even a memorial thereof, and
burn it on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire
unto the LORD: it is a sin offering.
5:13: And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching
his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall
be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest's, as
a meat offering.
5:14: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
5:15: If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance,
in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his
trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks,
with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel
of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:
5:16: And he shall make amends for the harm that he hath done
in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and
give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement
for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall
be forgiven him.
5:17: And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which
are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD;
though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his
iniquity.
5:18: And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the
flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto
the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him
concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not,
and it shall be forgiven him.
5:19: It is a trespass offering: he hath certainly trespassed
against the LORD.
6:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:2: If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD,
and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him
to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence,
or hath deceived his neighbour;
6:3: Or have found that which was lost, and lieth concerning
it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth,
sinning therein:
6:4: Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty,
that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or
the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which
was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,
6:5: Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; he shall
even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth
part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth,
in the day of his trespass offering.
6:6: And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD,
a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation,
for a trespass offering, unto the priest:
6:7: And the priest shall make an atonement for him before
the LORD: and it shall be forgiven him for any thing of all
that he hath done in trespassing therein.
6:8: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:9: Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of
the burnt offering: It is the burnt offering, because of the
burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the
fire of the altar shall be burning in it.
6:10: And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his
linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh, and take up the
ashes which the fire hath consumed with the burnt offering
on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.
6:11: And he shall put off his garments, and put on other
garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto
a clean place.
6:12: And the fire upon the altar shall be burning in it;
it shall not be put out: and the priest shall burn wood on
it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order upon
it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace offerings.
6:13: The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall
never go out.
6:14: And this is the law of the meat offering: the sons of
Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar.
6:15: And he shall take of it his handful, of the flour of
the meat offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense
which is upon the meat offering, and shall burn it upon the
altar for a sweet savour, even the memorial of it, unto the
LORD.
6:16: And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat:
with unleavened bread shall it be eaten in the holy place;
in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall
eat it.
6:17: It shall not be baken with leaven. I have given it unto
them for their portion of my offerings made by fire; it is
most holy, as is the sin offering, and as the trespass offering.
6:18: All the males among the children of Aaron shall eat
of it. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations
concerning the offerings of the LORD made by fire: every one
that toucheth them shall be holy.
6:19: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:20: This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which
they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when he is anointed;
the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat offering
perpetual, half of it in the morning, and half thereof at
night.
6:21: In a pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is baken,
thou shalt bring it in: and the baken pieces of the meat offering
shalt thou offer for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
6:22: And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead
shall offer it: it is a statute for ever unto the LORD, it
shall be wholly burnt.
6:23: For every meat offering for the priest shall be wholly
burnt: it shall not be eaten.
6:24: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:25: Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the
law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering
is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD:
it is most holy.
6:26: The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in
the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle
of the congregation.
6:27: Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy:
and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any
garment, thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in
the holy place.
6:28: But the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be
broken: and if it be sodden in a brasen pot, it shall be both
scoured, and rinsed in water.
6:29: All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it
is most holy.
6:30: And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought
into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal
in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the
fire.
7:1: Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering: it
is most holy.
7:2: In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall
they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall
he sprinkle round about upon the altar.
7:3: And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump,
and the fat that covereth the inwards,
7:4: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which
is by the flanks, and the caul that is above the liver, with
the kidneys, it shall he take away:
7:5: And the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an
offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a trespass offering.
7:6: Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall
be eaten in the holy place: it is most holy.
7:7: As the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering:
there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement
therewith shall have it.
7:8: And the priest that offereth any man's burnt offering,
even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt
offering which he hath offered.
7:9: And all the meat offering that is baken in the oven,
and all that is dressed in the fryingpan, and in the pan,
shall be the priest's that offereth it.
7:10: And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry,
shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.
7:11: And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings,
which he shall offer unto the LORD.
7:12: If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer
with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled
with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes
mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.
7:13: Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his offering leavened
bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.
7:14: And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation
for an heave offering unto the LORD, and it shall be the priest's
that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings.
7:15: And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings
for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered;
he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
7:16: But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or a
voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he
offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder
of it shall be eaten:
7:17: But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the
third day shall be burnt with fire.
7:18: And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace
offerings be eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be
accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth
it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of
it shall bear his iniquity.
7:19: And the flesh that toucheth any unclean thing shall
not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as for the
flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof.
7:20: But the soul that eateth of the flesh of the sacrifice
of peace offerings, that pertain unto the LORD, having his
uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off from
his people.
7:21: Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean thing,
as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable
unclean thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace
offerings, which pertain unto the LORD, even that soul shall
be cut off from his people.
7:22: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7:23: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall
eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
7:24: And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the
fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any
other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it.
7:25: For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which
men offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, even the
soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.
7:26: Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it
be of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.
7:27: Whatsoever soul it be that eateth any manner of blood,
even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
7:28: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7:29: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth
the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the LORD shall bring
his oblation unto the LORD of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
7:30: His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD
made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he bring,
that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before the
LORD.
7:31: And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but
the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
7:32: And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest
for an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
7:33: He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood
of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right
shoulder for his part.
7:34: For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken
of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their
peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest
and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children
of Israel.
7:35: This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of
the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD
made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister
unto the LORD in the priest's office;
7:36: Which the LORD commanded to be given them of the children
of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, by a statute
for ever throughout their generations.
7:37: This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meat offering,
and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and
of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the peace offerings;
7:38: Which the LORD commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the
day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their
oblations unto the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
8:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
8:2: Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and
the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and
two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread;
8:3: And gather thou all the congregation together unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8:4: And Moses did as the LORD commanded him; and the assembly
was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation.
8:5: And Moses said unto the congregation, This is the thing
which the LORD commanded to be done.
8:6: And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them
with water.
8:7: And he put upon him the coat, and girded him with the
girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon
him, and he girded him with the curious girdle of the ephod,
and bound it unto him therewith.
8:8: And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the
breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
8:9: And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre,
even upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the
holy crown; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:10: And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle
and all that was therein, and sanctified them.
8:11: And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times,
and anointed the altar and all his vessels, both the laver
and his foot, to sanctify them.
8:12: And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron's head,
and anointed him, to sanctify him.
8:13: And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats upon them,
and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as
the LORD commanded Moses.
8:14: And he brought the bullock for the sin offering: and
Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock
for the sin offering.
8:15: And he slew it; and Moses took the blood, and put it
upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and
purified the altar, and poured the blood at the bottom of
the altar, and sanctified it, to make reconciliation upon
it.
8:16: And he took all the fat that was upon the inwards, and
caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat,
and Moses burned it upon the altar.
8:17: But the bullock, and his hide, his flesh, and his dung,
he burnt with fire without the camp; as the LORD commanded
Moses.
8:18: And he brought the ram for the burnt offering: and Aaron
and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
8:19: And he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon
the altar round about.
8:20: And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burnt the
head, and the pieces, and the fat.
8:21: And he washed the inwards and the legs in water; and
Moses burnt the whole ram upon the altar: it was a burnt sacrifice
for a sweet savour, and an offering made by fire unto the
LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:22: And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration:
and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the
ram.
8:23: And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and
put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb
of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
8:24: And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put of the blood
upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their
right hands, and upon the great toes of their right feet:
and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
8:25: And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that
was upon the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the
two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder:
8:26: And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was
before the LORD, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of
oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon
the right shoulder:
8:27: And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons'
hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the LORD.
8:28: And Moses took them from off their hands, and burnt
them on the altar upon the burnt offering: they were consecrations
for a sweet savour: it is an offering made by fire unto the
LORD.
8:29: And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering
before the LORD: for of the ram of consecration it was Moses'
part; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:30: And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood
which was upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron, and
upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments
with him; and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his
sons, and his sons' garments with him.
8:31: And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons, Boil the
flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and
there eat it with the bread that is in the basket of consecrations,
as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
8:32: And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread
shall ye burn with fire.
8:33: And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation in seven days, until the days of your
consecration be at an end: for seven days shall he consecrate
you.
8:34: As he hath done this day, so the LORD hath commanded
to do, to make an atonement for you.
8:35: Therefore shall ye abide at the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation day and night seven days, and keep the
charge of the LORD, that ye die not: for so I am commanded.
8:36: So Aaron and his sons did all things which the LORD
commanded by the hand of Moses.
9:1: And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called
Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
9:2: And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a
sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish,
and offer them before the LORD.
9:3: And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying,
Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf
and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a
burnt offering;
9:4: Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice
before the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for
to day the LORD will appear unto you.
9:5: And they brought that which Moses commanded before the
tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew
near and stood before the LORD.
9:6: And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commanded
that ye should do: and the glory of the LORD shall appear
unto you.
9:7: And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer
thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement
for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of
the people, and make an atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.
9:8: Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf
of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9:9: And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and
he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns
of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the
altar:
9:10: But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the
liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the
LORD commanded Moses.
9:11: And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without
the camp.
9:12: And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented
unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the
altar.
9:13: And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with
the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them upon the
altar.
9:14: And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt
them upon the burnt offering on the altar.
9:15: And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat,
which was the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and
offered it for sin, as the first.
9:16: And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according
to the manner.
9:17: And he brought the meat offering, and took an handful
thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice
of the morning.
9:18: He slew also the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice
of peace offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's
sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon
the altar round about,
9:19: And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump,
and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and
the caul above the liver:
9:20: And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt
the fat upon the altar:
9:21: And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for
a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.
9:22: And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and
blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering,
and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
9:23: And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the
congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the
glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.
9:24: And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and
consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which
when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
10:1: And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either
of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense
thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he
commanded them not.
10:2: And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured
them, and they died before the LORD.
10:3: Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD
spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh
me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron
held his peace.
10:4: And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel
the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your
brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
10:5: So they went near, and carried them in their coats out
of the camp; as Moses had said.
10:6: And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto
Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your
clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people:
but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the
burning which the LORD hath kindled.
10:7: And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of
the LORD is upon you. And they did according to the word of
Moses.
10:8: And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying,
10:9: Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons
with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation,
lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your
generations:
10:10: And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy,
and between unclean and clean;
10:11: And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the
statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand
of Moses.
10:12: And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto
Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that
remaineth of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat
it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy:
10:13: And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is
thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the LORD
made by fire: for so I am commanded.
10:14: And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat
in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with
thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given
out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of
Israel.
10:15: The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring
with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for
a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and
thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath
commanded.
10:16: And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering,
and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and
Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying,
10:17: Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the
holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it
you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement
for them before the LORD?
10:18: Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the
holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place,
as I commanded.
10:19: And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they
offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before
the LORD; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten
the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the
sight of the LORD?
10:20: And when Moses heard that, he was content.
11:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto
them,
11:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are
the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are
on the earth.
11:3: Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and
cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
11:4: Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew
the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because
he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean
unto you.
11:5: And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth
not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
11:6: And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth
not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
11:7: And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted,
yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
11:8: Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall
ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
11:9: These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever
hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the
rivers, them shall ye eat.
11:10: And all that have not fins and scales in the seas,
and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of
any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an
abomination unto you:
11:11: They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall
not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in
abomination.
11:12: Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that
shall be an abomination unto you.
11:13: And these are they which ye shall have in abomination
among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination:
the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
11:14: And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
11:15: Every raven after his kind;
11:16: And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and
the hawk after his kind,
11:17: And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great
owl,
11:18: And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
11:19: And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing,
and the bat.
11:20: All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be
an abomination unto you.
11:21: Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing
that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet,
to leap withal upon the earth;
11:22: Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his
kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after
his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
11:23: But all other flying creeping things, which have four
feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
11:24: And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth
the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
11:25: And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
11:26: The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof,
and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean
unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
11:27: And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner
of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you:
whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
11:28: And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash
his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean
unto you.
11:29: These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping
things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse,
and the tortoise after his kind,
11:30: And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard,
and the snail, and the mole.
11:31: These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever
doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until
the even.
11:32: And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead,
doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of
wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be,
wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it
shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
11:33: And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth,
whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
11:34: Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such
water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk
in every such vessel shall be unclean.
11:35: And every thing whereupon any part of their carcase
falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for
pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean, and
shall be unclean unto you.
11:36: Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein there is plenty
of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase
shall be unclean.
11:37: And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing
seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.
11:38: But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part
of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
11:39: And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that
toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
11:40: And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash
his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth
the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until
the even.
11:41: And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth
shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
11:42: Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth
upon all four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping
things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for
they are an abomination.
11:43: Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping
thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean
with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
11:44: For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify
yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall
ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
11:45: For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land
of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for
I am holy.
11:46: This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and
of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of
every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
11:47: To make a difference between the unclean and the clean,
and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that
may not be eaten.
12:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
12:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman
have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall
be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation
for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
12:3: And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall
be circumcised.
12:4: And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying
three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing,
nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying
be fulfilled.
12:5: But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean
two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in
the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
12:6: And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for
a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first
year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove,
for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, unto the priest:
12:7: Who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement
for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood.
This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.
12:8: And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall
bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt
offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest
shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
13:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
13:2: When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising,
a scab, or a bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh
like the plague of leprosy; then he shall be brought unto
Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
13:3: And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin
of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned white,
and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh,
it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him,
and pronounce him unclean.
13:4: If the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh,
and in sight be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof
be not turned white; then the priest shall shut up him that
hath the plague seven days:
13:5: And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and,
behold, if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plague
spread not in the skin; then the priest shall shut him up
seven days more:
13:6: And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day:
and, behold, if the plague be somewhat dark, and the plague
spread not in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean:
it is but a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
13:7: But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after
that he hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he
shall be seen of the priest again:
13:8: And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth
in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it is a leprosy.
13:9: When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall
be brought unto the priest;
13:10: And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the rising
be white in the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and
there be quick raw flesh in the rising;
13:11: It is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and
the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut
him up: for he is unclean.
13:12: And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and
the leprosy cover all the skin of him that hath the plague
from his head even to his foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;
13:13: Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, if the
leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him
clean that hath the plague: it is all turned white: he is
clean.
13:14: But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
13:15: And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce
him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy.
13:16: Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto
white, he shall come unto the priest;
13:17: And the priest shall see him: and, behold, if the plague
be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce him
clean that hath the plague: he is clean.
13:18: The flesh also, in which, even in the skin thereof,
was a boil, and is healed,
13:19: And in the place of the boil there be a white rising,
or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish, and it be shewed
to the priest;
13:20: And if, when the priest seeth it, behold, it be in
sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned
white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague
of leprosy broken out of the boil.
13:21: But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be
no white hairs therein, and if it be not lower than the skin,
but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up seven
days:
13:22: And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the
priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
13:23: But if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread
not, it is a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce
him clean.
13:24: Or if there be any flesh, in the skin whereof there
is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burneth have a
white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;
13:25: Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if
the hair in the bright spot be turned white, and it be in
sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out of
the burning: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it is the plague of leprosy.
13:26: But if the priest look on it, and, behold, there be
no white hair in the bright spot, and it be no lower than
the other skin, but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall
shut him up seven days:
13:27: And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day:
and if it be spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest
shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
13:28: And if the bright spot stay in his place, and spread
not in the skin, but it be somewhat dark; it is a rising of
the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean: for
it is an inflammation of the burning.
13:29: If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the
beard;
13:30: Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold,
if it be in sight deeper than the skin; and there be in it
a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it is a dry scall, even a leprosy upon the head or beard.
13:31: And if the priest look on the plague of the scall,
and, behold, it be not in sight deeper than the skin, and
that there is no black hair in it; then the priest shall shut
up him that hath the plague of the scall seven days:
13:32: And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the
plague: and, behold, if the scall spread not, and there be
in it no yellow hair, and the scall be not in sight deeper
than the skin;
13:33: He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave;
and the priest shall shut up him that hath the scall seven
days more:
13:34: And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the
scall: and, behold, if the scall be not spread in the skin,
nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest shall
pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and be
clean.
13:35: But if the scall spread much in the skin after his
cleansing;
13:36: Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if
the scall be spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek
for yellow hair; he is unclean.
13:37: But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and that
there is black hair grown up therein; the scall is healed,
he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
13:38: If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their
flesh bright spots, even white bright spots;
13:39: Then the priest shall look: and, behold, if the bright
spots in the skin of their flesh be darkish white; it is a
freckled spot that groweth in the skin; he is clean.
13:40: And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is
bald; yet is he clean.
13:41: And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part
of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet is he
clean.
13:42: And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead,
a white reddish sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his bald
head, or his bald forehead.
13:43: Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, if
the rising of the sore be white reddish in his bald head,
or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the skin
of the flesh;
13:44: He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the priest shall
pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is in his head.
13:45: And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall
be rent, and his head bare, and he shall put a covering upon
his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
13:46: All the days wherein the plague shall be in him he
shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone; without
the camp shall his habitation be.
13:47: The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in,
whether it be a woollen garment, or a linen garment;
13:48: Whether it be in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of
woollen; whether in a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
13:49: And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment,
or in the skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in
any thing of skin; it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be
shewed unto the priest:
13:50: And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut
up it that hath the plague seven days:
13:51: And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day:
if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp,
or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any work that is made
of skin; the plague is a fretting leprosy; it is unclean.
13:52: He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp
or woof, in woollen or in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein
the plague is: for it is a fretting leprosy; it shall be burnt
in the fire.
13:53: And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague
be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the
woof, or in any thing of skin;
13:54: Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing
wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days
more:
13:55: And the priest shall look on the plague, after that
it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not changed
his colour, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; thou
shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be
bare within or without.
13:56: And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague be
somewhat dark after the washing of it; then he shall rend
it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp,
or out of the woof:
13:57: And if it appear still in the garment, either in the
warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreading
plague: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague is with fire.
13:58: And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever
thing of skin it be, which thou shalt wash, if the plague
be departed from them, then it shall be washed the second
time, and shall be clean.
13:59: This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment
of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or any thing
of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean.
14:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
14:2: This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his
cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:
14:3: And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the
priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be
healed in the leper;
14:4: Then shall the priest command to take for him that is
to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood,
and scarlet, and hyssop:
14:5: And the priest shall command that one of the birds be
killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
14:6: 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:
14:7: And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed
from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean,
and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
14:8: And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes,
and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, that
he may be clean: and after that he shall come into the camp,
and shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.
14:9: But 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: and he shall wash his
clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall
be clean.
14:10: And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without
blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish,
and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mingled
with oil, and one log of oil.
14:11: And the priest that maketh him clean shall present
the man that is to be made clean, and those things, before
the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
14:12: And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him
for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them
for a wave offering before the LORD:
14:13: And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he shall
kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the holy
place: for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the
trespass offering: it is most holy:
14:14: And the priest shall take some of the blood of the
trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip
of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the
thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right
foot:
14:15: And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and
pour it into the palm of his own left hand:
14:16: And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil
that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with
his finger seven times before the LORD:
14:17: And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall
the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is
to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and
upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the
trespass offering:
14:18: And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest's
hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed:
and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the
LORD.
14:19: And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make
an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness;
and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering:
14:20: And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the
meat offering upon the altar: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
14:21: And if he be poor, and cannot get so much; then he
shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to
make an atonement for him, and one tenth deal of fine flour
mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log of oil;
14:22: And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as
he is able to get; and the one shall be a sin offering, and
the other a burnt offering.
14:23: And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing
unto the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
before the LORD.
14:24: And 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 the LORD:
14:25: And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering,
and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass
offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him
that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand,
and upon the great toe of his right foot:
14:26: And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm
of his own left hand:
14:27: And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger
some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before
the LORD:
14:28: And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his
hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed,
and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe
of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the trespass
offering:
14:29: And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand
he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed,
to make an atonement for him before the LORD.
14:30: And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of
the young pigeons, such as he can get;
14:31: Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin offering,
and the other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering:
and the priest shall make an atonement for him that is to
be cleansed before the LORD.
14:32: This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy,
whose hand is not able to get that which pertaineth to his
cleansing.
14:33: And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
14:34: When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give
to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in
a house of the land of your possession;
14:35: And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the
priest, saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were a plague
in the house:
14:36: Then the priest shall command that they empty the house,
before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that
is in the house be not made unclean: and afterward the priest
shall go in to see the house:
14:37: And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, if the
plague be in the walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish
or reddish, which in sight are lower than the wall;
14:38: Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door
of the house, and shut up the house seven days:
14:39: And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and
shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls
of the house;
14:40: Then the priest shall command that they take away the
stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into
an unclean place without the city:
14:41: And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round
about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off
without the city into an unclean place:
14:42: And they shall take other stones, and put them in the
place of those stones; and he shall take other morter, and
shall plaister the house.
14:43: And if the plague come again, and break out in the
house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after
he hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;
14:44: Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if
the plague be spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy
in the house: it is unclean.
14:45: And he shall break down the house, the stones of it,
and the timber thereof, and all the morter of the house; and
he shall carry them forth out of the city into an unclean
place.
14:46: Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while
that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.
14:47: And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes;
and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
14:48: And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it,
and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after
the house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce
the house clean, because the plague is healed.
14:49: And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and
cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
14:50: And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen
vessel over running water:
14:51: And 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:
14:52: And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the
bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird,
and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the
scarlet:
14:53: But he shall let go the living bird out of the city
into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house:
and it shall be clean.
14:54: This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy,
and scall,
14:55: And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
14:56: And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright
spot:
14:57: To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean:
this is the law of leprosy.
15:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying,
15:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
When any man hath a running issue out of his flesh, because
of his issue he is unclean.
15:3: And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether
his flesh run with his issue, or his flesh be stopped from
his issue, it is his uncleanness.
15:4: Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the issue, is
unclean: and every thing, whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean.
15:5: And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:6: And he that sitteth on any thing whereon he sat that
hath the issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in
water, and be unclean until the even.
15:7: And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the
issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,
and be unclean until the even.
15:8: And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is
clean; then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in
water, and be unclean until the even.
15:9: And what saddle soever he rideth upon that hath the
issue shall be unclean.
15:10: And whosoever toucheth any thing that was under him
shall be unclean until the even: and he that beareth any of
those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in
water, and be unclean until the even.
15:11: And whomsoever he toucheth that hath the issue, and
hath not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:12: And the vessel of earth, that he toucheth which hath
the issue, shall be broken: and every vessel of wood shall
be rinsed in water.
15:13: And when he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue;
then he shall number to himself seven days for his cleansing,
and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water,
and shall be clean.
15:14: And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtledoves,
or two young pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door
of the tabernacle of the congregation, and give them unto
the priest:
15:15: And the priest shall offer them, the one for a sin
offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest
shall make an atonement for him before the LORD for his issue.
15:16: And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him,
then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean
until the even.
15:17: And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed
of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean
until the even.
15:18: The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of
copulation, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and
be unclean until the even.
15:19: And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her
flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever
toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.
15:20: And every thing that she lieth upon in her separation
shall be unclean: every thing also that she sitteth upon shall
be unclean.
15:21: And whosoever toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.
15:22: And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sat upon
shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be
unclean until the even.
15:23: And if it be on her bed, or on any thing whereon she
sitteth, when he toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the
even.
15:24: And if any man lie with her at all, and her flowers
be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; and all the bed
whereon he lieth shall be unclean.
15:25: And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days
out of the time of her separation, or if it run beyond the
time of her separation; all the days of the issue of her uncleanness
shall be as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean.
15:26: Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue
shall be unto her as the bed of her separation: and whatsoever
she sitteth upon shall be unclean, as the uncleanness of her
separation.
15:27: And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean,
and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and
be unclean until the even.
15:28: But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall
number to herself seven days, and after that she shall be
clean.
15:29: And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtles,
or two young pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, to the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
15:30: And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering,
and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make
an atonement for her before the LORD for the issue of her
uncleanness.
15:31: Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from
their uncleanness; that they die not in their uncleanness,
when they defile my tabernacle that is among them.
15:32: This is the law of him that hath an issue, and of him
whose seed goeth from him, and is defiled therewith;
15:33: And of her that is sick of her flowers, and of him
that hath an issue, of the man, and of the woman, and of him
that lieth with her that is unclean.
16:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses after the death of the
two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the LORD, and
died;
16:2: And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother,
that he come not at all times into the holy place within the
vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he
die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.
16:3: Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young
bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
16:4: He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have
the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with
a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired:
these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh
in water, and so put them on.
16:5: And he shall take of the congregation of the children
of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one
ram for a burnt offering.
16:6: And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering,
which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and
for his house.
16:7: And he shall take the two goats, and present them before
the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
16:8: And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot
for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
16:9: And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD's
lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
16:10: But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat,
shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement
with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
16:11: And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering,
which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself,
and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering
which is for himself:
16:12: And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of
fire from off the altar before the LORD, and his hands full
of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail:
16:13: And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the
LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat
that is upon the testimony, that he die not:
16:14: And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and
sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward;
and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with
his finger seven times.
16:15: Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that
is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and
do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock,
and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy
seat:
16:16: And he shall make an atonement for the holy place,
because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and
because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so
shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remaineth
among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
16:17: And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the
congregation when he goeth in to make an atonement in the
holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement
for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation
of Israel.
16:18: And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the
LORD, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the
blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put
it upon the horns of the altar round about.
16:19: And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his
finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the
uncleanness of the children of Israel.
16:20: And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy
place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar,
he shall bring the live goat:
16:21: And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of
the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of
the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all
their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall
send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
16:22: And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities
unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in
the wilderness.
16:23: And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation,
and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when
he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there:
16:24: And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy
place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer
his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people,
and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
16:25: And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon
the altar.
16:26: And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall
wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward
come into the camp.
16:27: And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat
for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement
in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp;
and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh,
and their dung.
16:28: And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and
bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into
the camp.
16:29: And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that
in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall
afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one
of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
16:30: For on that day shall the priest make an atonement
for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your
sins before the LORD.
16:31: It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall
afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
16:32: And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall
consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's
stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen
clothes, even the holy garments:
16:33: And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary,
and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation,
and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the
priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
16:34: And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you,
to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their
sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.
17:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
17:2: Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the
children of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which
the LORD hath commanded, saying,
17:3: What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that
killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth
it out of the camp,
17:4: And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before
the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that
man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from
among his people:
17:5: To the end that the children of Israel may bring their
sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that
they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace
offerings unto the LORD.
17:6: And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar
of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
17:7: And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils,
after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute
for ever unto them throughout their generations.
17:8: And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be
of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn
among you, that offereth a burnt offering of sacrifice,
17:9: And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even that
man shall be cut off from among his people.
17:10: And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel,
or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any
manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul
that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
17:11: For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have
given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your
souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the
soul.
17:12: Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul
of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth
among you eat blood.
17:13: And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel,
or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth
and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall
even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
17:14: For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is
for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of
Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for
the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth
it shall be cut off.
17:15: And every soul that eateth that which died of itself,
or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your
own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even:
then shall he be clean.
17:16: But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh; then
he shall bear his iniquity.
18:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
18:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
I am the LORD your God.
18:3: After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt,
shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan,
whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk
in their ordinances.
18:4: Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances,
to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
18:5: Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments:
which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
18:6: None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin
to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.
18:7: The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy
mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt
not uncover her nakedness.
18:8: The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover:
it is thy father's nakedness.
18:9: The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father,
or daughter of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or
born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
18:10: The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's
daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for
theirs is thine own nakedness.
18:11: The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten
of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her
