2Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I Jehovah your God am holy.
2Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel. And thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy.
3Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father; and ye shall keep my sabbaths: I am Jehovah your God.
3Let every one fear his father, and his mother. Keep my sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.
4Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
4Turn ye not to idols: nor make to yourselves molten gods. I am the Lord your God.
5And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto Jehovah, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted.
5If ye offer in sacrifice a peace offering to the Lord, that he may be favourable:
6It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if aught remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
6You shall eat it on the same day it was offered, and the next day. And whatsoever shall be left until the third day, you shall burn with fire.
7And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination; it shall not be accepted:
7If after two days any man eat thereof, he shall be profane and guilty of impiety:
8but every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of Jehovah: and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
8And shall bear his iniquity, because he hath defiled the holy thing of the Lord. And that soul shall perish from among his people.
9And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest.
9When thou reapest the corn of thy land, thou shalt not cut down all that is on the face of the earth to the very ground: nor shalt thou gather the ears that remain.
10And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather the fallen fruit of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am Jehovah your God.
10Neither shalt thou gather the bunches and grapes that fall down in thy vineyard: but shalt leave them to the poor and the strangers to take. I am the Lord your God.
11Ye shall not steal; neither shall ye deal falsely, nor lie one to another.
11You shall not steal. You shall not lie: neither shall any man deceive his neighbour.
12And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
12Thou shalt not swear falsely by my name, nor profane the name of thy God. I am the Lord.
13Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbor, nor rob him: the wages of a hired servant shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
13Thou shalt not calumniate thy neighbour, nor oppress him by violence. The wages of him that hath been hired by thee shall not abide with thee until the morning.
14Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind; but thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
14Thou shalt not speak evil of the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind: but thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, because I am the Lord.
15Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty; but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor.
15Thou shalt not do that which is unjust, nor judge unjustly. Respect not the person of the poor: nor honour the countenance of the mighty. But judge thy neighbour according to justice.
16Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor: I am Jehovah.
16Thou shalt not be a detractor nor a whisperer among the people. Thou shalt not stand against the blood of thy neighbour. I am the Lord.
17Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt surely rebuke thy neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
17Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: But reprove him openly, lest thou incur sin through him.
18Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Jehovah.
18Seek not revenge, nor be mindful of the injury of thy citizens. Thou shalt love thy friend as thyself. I am the Lord.
19Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with two kinds of seed: neither shall there come upon thee a garment of two kinds of stuff mingled together.
19Keep ye my laws. Thou shalt not make thy cattle to gender with beasts of any other kind. Thou shalt not sow thy field with different seeds. Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of two sorts.
20And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; they shall be punished; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
20If a man carnally lie with a woman that is a bondservant and marriageable, and yet not redeemed with a price, nor made free: they both shall be scourged: and they shall not be put to death, because she was not a free woman.
21And he shall bring his trespass-offering unto Jehovah, unto the door of the tent of meeting, even a ram for a trespass-offering.
21And for his trespass he shall offer a ram to the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
22And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering before Jehovah for his sin which he hath sinned: and the sin which he hath sinned shall be forgiven him.
22And the priest shall pray for him: and for his sin before the Lord: and he shall have mercy on him, and the sin shall be forgiven.
23And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as their uncircumcision: three years shall they be as uncircumcised unto you; it shall not be eaten.
23When you shall be come into the land, and shall have planted in it fruit trees, you shall take away the firstfruits of them. The fruit that comes forth shall be unclean to you: neither shall you eat of them.
24But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy, for giving praise unto Jehovah.
24But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified, to the praise of the Lord.
25And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am Jehovah your God.
25And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruits thereof, gathering the increase thereof. I am the Lord your God.
26Ye shall not eat anything with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantments, nor practise augury.
26You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.
27Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
27Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.
28Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am Jehovah.
28You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead: neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks. I am the Lord.
29Profane not thy daughter, to make her a harlot; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.

33If a stranger dwell in your land, and abide among you, do not upbraid hin:
34The stranger that sojourneth with you shall be unto you as the home-born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
34But let him be among you as one of the same country. And you shall love him as yourselves: for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
35Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.
35Do not any unjust thing in judgment, in rule, in weight, or in measure.
