Leviticus Chapter 24

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil
olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.

3 Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the
congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning
before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations.

4 He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually.

5 And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two
tenth deals shall be in one cake.

6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the LORD.

7 And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on
the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

8 Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually,
being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.

9 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the
holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the LORD
made by fire by a perpetual statute.

10 And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian,
went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish
woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;

11 And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was
Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)

12 And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.

13 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that
heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation
stone him.

15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever
curseth his God shall bear his sin.

16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put
to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well
the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the
name of the LORD, shall be put to death.

17 And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.

18 And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.

19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so
shall it be done to him;

20 Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.

21 And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth
a man, he shall be put to death.

22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one
of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.

23 And Moses spake to the children of Israel, that they should bring
forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones.
And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.

Leviticus Chapter 25

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come
into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto
the LORD.

3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;

4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a
sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not
reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year
of rest unto the land.

6 And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for thee, and for
thy servant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy
stranger that sojourneth with thee,

7 And for thy cattle, and for the beast that are in thy land, shall all
the increase thereof be meat.

8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times
seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto
thee forty and nine years.

9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth
day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the
trumpet sound throughout all your land.

10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty
throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a
jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and
ye shall return every man unto his family.

11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow,
neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes
in it of thy vine undressed.

12 For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the
increase thereof out of the field.

13 In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

15 According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of
thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he
shall sell unto thee:

16 According to the multitude of years thou shalt increase the price
thereof, and according to the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the
price of it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits doth
he sell unto thee.

17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy
God: for I am the LORD your God.

18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do
them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and
dwell therein in safety.

20 And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we
shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

21 Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it
shall bring forth fruit for three years.

22 And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the
ninth year; until her fruits come in ye shall eat of the old store.

23 The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption
for the land.

25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away some of his
possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he
redeem that which his brother sold.

26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

27 Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the
overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

28 But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold
shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of
jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

29 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may
redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may
he redeem it.

30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the
house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him
that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the
jubile.

31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them
shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and
they shall go out in the jubile.

32 Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the
cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.

33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold,
and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubile: for
the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

34 But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it
is their perpetual possession.

35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then
thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner;
that he may live with thee.

36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy
brother may live with thee.

37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy
victuals for increase.

38 I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of
Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

39 And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold
unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

40 But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee,
and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:

41 And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with
him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of
his fathers shall he return.

42 For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of
Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.

44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be
of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen
and bondmaids.

45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you,
of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which
they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.

46 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you,
to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever:
but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one
over another with rigour.

47 And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger or
sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger's family:

48 After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren
may redeem him:

49 Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is
nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he
may redeem himself.

50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he
was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall
be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

51 If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give
again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

52 And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he
shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him
again the price of his redemption.

53 And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other
shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.

54 And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the
year of jubile, both he, and his children with him.

55 For unto me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants
whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
