Leviticus Chapter 1

The holocausts

1 jehovah called Moses and spoke to him from the tabernacle of the congregation, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When any of you offers an offering to Jehovah, you shall make your offering of cattle or sheep.
3 If his offering is a burnt offering of cattle, he shall offer it a male without blemish; of his will he will offer it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before Jehovah.
4 And he will lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted for his atonement.
5 Then he will slaughter the calf in the presence of the Lord; And Aaron’s sons, the priests, will offer the blood and sprinkle it around on the altar, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 And he will flay the burnt offering, and divide it into pieces.
7 And the sons of Aaron the priest will put fire on the altar, and they will stack the wood on the fire.
8 Then the priests, Aaron’s sons, will arrange the pieces, the head and the fat of the intestines, on the wood that is on the fire that will be on top of the altar;
9 and he will wash the intestines and the legs with water, and the priest will burn everything on the altar; It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a sweet savor to Jehovah.
10 If his offering for a burnt offering is from the flock, from the sheep, or from the goats, he must offer it from a male without blemish.
11 And he shall slaughter it on the north side of the altar before Jehovah; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, will sprinkle his blood on the altar all around.
12 He will divide it into pieces, with its head and the fat of the intestines; and the priest will arrange them on the wood that is on the fire that will be on top of the altar;
13 and he will wash the entrails and the legs with water; and the priest will offer it all, and he will burn it on the altar; It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a sweet savor to Jehovah.
14 If the offering to Jehovah is a burnt offering of birds, he will present his offering of turtledoves, or pigeons.

15 And the priest will offer it on the altar, and take off its head, and cause it to burn on the altar; and its blood will be squeezed out on the wall of the altar.

16 And he will take away the crop and the feathers, which he will throw next to the altar, toward the east, in the place of the ashes.
17 And he will cleave it by its wings, but he will not divide it in two; and the priest will burn it on the altar, on the wood that will be in the fire; It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a sweet savor to Jehovah.

Leviticus Chapter 2

The offerings

1 When any person offers an oblation to Jehovah, his offering shall be fine flour, on which he shall pour oil, and put incense on it,
2 and bring it to the priests, the sons of Aaron; and from this the priest will take his fist full of the fine flour and the oil, with all the incense, and will burn it on the altar as a memorial; It is an offering made by fire, of a pleasing aroma to Jehovah.
3 And the remainder of the offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; It is a most holy thing among the offerings that are burned to Jehovah.
4 When you offer an offering baked in an oven, it will be unleavened fine flour cakes kneaded with oil, and unleavened flakes anointed with oil.
5 But if you offer a frying offering, it shall be fine unleavened flour mixed with oil,
6 which you shall break into pieces and pour oil on it; It is an offering.
7 If you offer an offering cooked in a pot, it will be made of fine flour with oil.
8 And you shall bring to Jehovah the offering that will be made of these things, and present it to the priest, who will bring it to the altar.
9 And the priest will take from that offering whatever is for his memorial, and he will burn it on the altar; offering made by fire of a sweet aroma to Jehovah.
10 And the remainder of the offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; It is a most holy thing among the offerings that are burned to Jehovah.
11 No offering that you offer to Jehovah will be leavened; for no leavened thing, nor any honey, is to be burned as an offering to Jehovah.
12 You shall offer them as an offering of firstfruits to Jehovah; but they will not go up on the altar for a sweet smell.
13 And you shall season every offering you present with salt, and you shall never cause the salt of the covenant of your God to fail from your offering; In every offering of yours you will offer salt.

14 If you offer to Jehovah an offering of firstfruits, you shall roast the green ears in the fire, and you shall offer the crushed grain as an offering of your firstfruits.
15 And you shall put oil on it, and put incense on it; It is an offering.
16 And the priest will burn the memorial of him, some of the crushed grain and the oil, with all the incense; It is an offering made by fire to Jehovah.

Leviticus Chapter 3

Peace offerings

1 If his offering is a peace offering, if he offers it from cattle, whether male or female, he will offer it without defect before Jehovah.
2 He will put his hand on the head of his offering, and he will slaughter it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, will sprinkle its blood on the altar all around.
3 Then he shall offer of the peace offering as an offering made by fire to Jehovah, the fat that covers the intestines, and all the fat that is on the entrails,
4 and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and on the flanks; and with the kidneys he will remove the fat of the intestines that is over the liver.
5 And Aaron’s sons will burn this on the altar, on the burnt offering that will be on the wood that will be on top of the fire; It is an offering of a sweet aroma to Jehovah.
6 But if his offering for a peace offering to Jehovah is sheep, whether male or female, he will offer it without defect.
7 If he offers a lamb for his offering, he will offer it before Jehovah.
8 He will put his hand on the head of his offering, and then he will slaughter it before the tabernacle of the congregation; and Aaron’s sons will sprinkle his blood on the altar all around.
9 And of the peace offering he will offer as an offering by fire to Jehovah the fat, the entire tail, which he will remove after the backbone, the fat that covers all the intestines, and all that is on the entrails.
10 Likewise the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and that on the flanks; and with the kidneys he will remove the fat from the liver.
11 And the priest will burn this on the altar; food is an offering made by fire to Jehovah.
12 If his offering is a goat, he will offer it before Jehovah.
13 He will put his hand on her head, and he will slaughter her before the tabernacle of the congregation; and Aaron’s sons will sprinkle his blood on the altar all around.
14 Then he will offer his offering made by fire to Jehovah; the fat that covers the intestines, and all the fat that is on the entrails,

15 the two kidneys, the fat that is on them, and that on the flanks; and with the kidneys he will remove the fat from the liver.

16 And the priest will burn this on the altar; Meal is an offering that is burned for a sweet aroma to Jehovah; all the fat is from Jehovah.
17 It will be a perpetual statute throughout your generations, wherever you live, that you will not eat any fat or any blood.

Leviticus Chapter 4

Sin offerings

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When any person sins through error in any of the commandments of Jehovah concerning things not to be done, and does any of them;
3 If the anointed priest sins according to the sin of the people, he will offer to Jehovah, for their sin which he has committed, a calf without blemish for atonement.
4 He will bring the calf to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before Jehovah, and he will put his hand on the head of the calf, and he will slaughter it before Jehovah.
5 And the anointed priest will take some of the blood of the bull, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation;
6 And the priest shall dip his finger in his blood, and sprinkle the blood seven times before Jehovah, toward the veil of the sanctuary.
7 And the priest shall put some of that blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation before Jehovah; and he shall pour the rest of the blood of the bull at the foot of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8 And he will take from the calf for a sin offering all the fat of it, that which covers the intestines, and that which is on the entrails,
9 the two kidneys, the fat that is on them, and that which is on the flanks; and with the kidneys he will remove the fat from the liver,
10 in the same way that he removes from the ox of the peace offering; and the priest will burn it on the altar of burnt offering.
11 And the skin of the calf, and all its flesh, with its head, its legs, its intestines and its dung,
12 finally, the whole calf he will take outside the camp to a clean place, where he will throw the ashes, and he will burn it. to the fire on the wood; where the ashes are spread he will be burned.
13 If the whole congregation of Israel has erred, and the error is hidden from the eyes of the people, and they have done something against one of the commandments of Jehovah in things that should not be done, and they are guilty;
14 After the sin they have committed becomes known, the congregation will offer a calf for a sin offering, and they will bring it before the tabernacle of the congregation.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the calf before Jehovah, and they shall slaughter the calf in the presence of Jehovah.
16 And the anointed priest shall put some of the blood of the calf into the tabernacle of the congregation,
17 and the priest shall dip his finger in the same blood, and sprinkle it seven times before Jehovah toward the veil.
18And he will put some of that blood on the horns of the altar that is before Jehovah in the tabernacle of the congregation, and he will pour out the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
19 And he will take away all the fat and burn it on the altar.
20 And he will do to that calf as he did to the calf of sin offering; he will do the same to him; so the priest will make atonement for them, and they will obtain forgiveness.
21 And he will bring the calf outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first calf; atonement is for the congregation.
22 When a leader sins and does something by mistake against one of all the commandments of Jehovah his God concerning things not to be done, and he sins;
23 After he knows his sin that he committed, he will present for his offering a male goat without blemish.
24 And he will put his hand on the head of the goat, and he will slaughter it in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, before Jehovah; It is atonement.

25 And with his finger the priest will take of the blood of the atonement, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and he will pour out the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar of burnt offering,
26 and he will burn all its fat on the altar, as the fatness of the peace sacrifice; so the priest will make atonement for him for his sin, and he will have forgiveness.
27 If any of the people sin by mistake, doing something against one of the commandments of Jehovah in things that should not be done, and commits a crime;

28 After he knows his sin that he committed, he will bring a goat as his offering, a goat without blemish, for his sin that he committed.
29 And he will put his hand on the head of the sin offering, and he will slaughter it in the place of the burnt offering.
30 Then the priest will take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and he will pour out the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar.
31 And he will take away all the fat from it, just as the fat from the peace offering was taken away; and the priest will burn it on the altar for a sweet odor to Jehovah; so the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.
32 And if he brings a lamb for his sin offering, he shall bring a female without blemish.
33 And he will put his hand on the head of the sin offering, and he will kill it for a sin offering in the place where the burnt offering is killed.
34 Then with his finger the priest will take some of the blood of the atonement, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and he will pour out the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar.
35 And he will remove all the fat from it, as the fat from the peace offering was removed, and the priest will burn it on the altar on the offering made by fire to Jehovah; and the priest will make atonement for his sin which he has committed, and he will be forgiven.

Leviticus Chapter 5

1 But the serpent was more crafty than all the animals of the field that Jehovah God had made; which he said to the woman: Has God then said to you, Do not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;

3 But of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, God said, You shall not eat of it, nor touch it, lest you die.
4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not die;
5 But God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.
6 And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant in her eyes, and a desirable tree to make one wise; and she took of the fruit thereof, and ate; and he also gave it to her husband, who ate it as well as her.
7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; So they sewed fig leaves together and made aprons for themselves.
8 And they heard the voice of Jehovah God walking in the garden in the cool of the day; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah God among the trees of the garden.
9 But Jehovah God called to the man and said to him, Where are you?
10 And he answered, I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because he was naked; and I hid.
11 And God said to him: Who taught you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat?
12 And the man answered, The woman whom you gave me as a companion gave me the tree, and I ate.
13 Then Jehovah God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate.

14 And Jehovah God said to the snake, Because you have done this, cursed are you above all cattle and above all the animals of the field; You will walk on your chest, and you will eat dust all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; she will bruise your head, and you will bruise her heel.

16 To the woman he said, I will greatly multiply the pain of your pregnancies; In pain you will give birth to children; and your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.

Expiatory offerings

14 Jehovah spoke further to Moses, saying:

15 When any person commits a fault, and sins through error in the holy things of Jehovah, he shall bring to Jehovah a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimate in shekels of silver from the shekel of the sanctuary, as a sin offering. .
16 And he shall repay what he has defrauded of the holy things, and shall add to it the fifth part, and give it to the priest; and the priest will make atonement for him with the ram of the sin offering, and he will be forgiven.
17 Finally, if a person sins, or does any of those things that are not to be done by the commandment of Jehovah, even without doing it knowingly, he is guilty, and he will bear his sin.
18 Therefore bring to the priest for a sin offering, as you deem it, a ram without blemish from the flock; and the priest will make atonement for him for the error he committed through ignorance, and he will be forgiven.
19 It is an offense, and indeed it is an offense against Jehovah.

Leviticus Chapter 6

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 When a person sins and transgresses against Jehovah, and denies to his neighbor what was entrusted or left in his hand, or steals or slanders his neighbor,
3 or having found what was lost, he later denies it. , and I will swear falsely; in one of all those things in which man usually sins,
4 then, having sinned and offended, he will restore that which he stole, or the damage of slander, or the deposit that was entrusted to him, or the lost thing that he found,
5 or all that about which he has sworn falsely; He will restore it in full to him to whom it belongs, and add to it the fifth part, on the day of his atonement.
6 And he will bring to Jehovah a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimate, for a sin offering, and he will give it to the priest for a sin offering.
7 And the priest will make atonement for him before Jehovah, and will obtain forgiveness for any of all the things in which he habitually offends.

Laws of sacrifices

8 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying,
9 Command Aaron and his sons, and say to them, This is the law of the burnt offering: the burnt offering will be on the fire burning on the altar all night until the morning; the fire of the altar will burn on it.
10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and shall put on linen undergarments over his body; And when the fire has consumed the burnt offering, he will remove the ashes from the altar and place them next to the altar.
11 Then he will take off his garments and put on other clothes, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.
12 And the fire kindled on the altar will not be quenched, but the priest will put wood on it every morning, and arrange the burnt offering on it, and burn the fat of the peace offerings on it.
13 The fire will burn continually on the altar; it won’t go out.
14 This is the law of the offering: Aaron’s sons shall offer it before Jehovah before the altar.
15 And he will take from it a handful of the fine flour of the offering, and of its oil, and all the incense that is on the offering, and will burn it on the altar as a memorial for a sweet odor to Jehovah.
16 And the remainder of it shall be eaten by Aaron and his sons; without yeast he will eat in a holy place; They will eat it in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven; I have given it to them for their portion of my burnt offerings; It is a most holy thing, like the sacrifice for sin, and like the sacrifice for guilt.
18 All the males of Aaron’s sons will eat of it. It shall be a perpetual statute for your generations concerning offerings made by fire to Jehovah; Everything that touches them will be sanctified.
19 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying,
20 This is the offering of Aaron and his sons, which they will offer to Jehovah on the day they are anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour, a perpetual offering, half in the morning. and half in the afternoon.

21 In a frying pan it will be prepared with oil; You shall bring it fried, and the cooked pieces of the offering you shall offer for a sweet odor to Jehovah.
22 And the priest who is anointed in Aaron’s place from among his sons will make the same offering. It is a perpetual statute of Jehovah; all of it will be burned.

23 Every priest’s offering shall be entirely burned; will not be eaten.
24 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
25 Speak to Aaron and his sons, and say to them, This is the law of the atoning sacrifice: in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering shall be slaughtered before Jehovah; It is a most holy thing.
26 The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it; It will be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.
27 Whatever touches his flesh will be sanctified; And if his blood is splashed on your clothing, you must wash whatever it falls on in a holy place.
28 And the clay vessel in which it was baked will be broken; and if it is cooked in a bronze vessel, it shall be scrubbed and washed with water.
29 Every male among the priests will eat it; It is a most holy thing.
30 But no offering shall be eaten, the blood of which is put into the tabernacle of the congregation to make atonement in the sanctuary; in the fire it will be burned.

Leviticus Chapter 7

1 Likewise this is the law of the guilt offering; It is a very holy thing.
2 In the place where they slaughter the burnt offering, they will slaughter the victim for guilt; and she will sprinkle its blood around her on the altar.
3 And he will offer all the fat of it, the tail, and the fat that covers the intestines,
4 the two kidneys, the fat that is on them, and that on the flanks; and with its kidneys he will remove the fat from the liver.
5 And the priest will burn it on the altar, an offering made by fire to the Lord; It is atonement for guilt.
6 Every male among the priests will eat it; It will be eaten in a holy place; It is a very holy thing.
7 As is the sacrifice for sin, so is the sacrifice for guilt; they will have the same law; It will be the priest who makes the atonement with it.
8 And the priest who offers anyone’s burnt offering, the skin of the burnt offering that he offers will be his.
9 Likewise, every offering that is baked in an oven, and everything that is prepared in a frying pan or in a casserole, will belong to the priest who offers it.
10 And every offering mixed with oil or dry shall belong to all the sons of Aaron, both one and the other.
11 And this is the law of the peace offering that will be offered to Jehovah:
12 If he offers it in thanksgiving, he will offer for a sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and flower of flour fried in cakes kneaded with oil.
13 With cakes of leavened bread he will present his offering in the sacrifice of thanksgivings of peace.
14 And of all the offering he shall present a part as a heave offering to Jehovah, and it shall be the priest’s to sprinkle the blood of the peace offerings.
15 And the meat of the peace offering of thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day it is offered; They will not leave anything of it for another day.
16 But if the sacrifice of his offering is voluntary, or voluntary, it will be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice, and what is left of it, they will eat on the next day;
17 And what remains of the meat of the sacrifice until the third day will be burned with fire.
18 If he eats the meat of the peace offering on the third day, it will not be accepted by him who offers it, nor will it be counted to him; It will be an abomination, and whoever eats it will bear its iniquity.
19 And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; in the fire it will be burned. Any clean person may eat the meat;
20 But the person who eats the flesh of the peace offering, which is from Jehovah, being unclean, that person shall be cut off from among his people.
21 Furthermore, whoever touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats the flesh of the peace offering, which is from Jehovah, that person shall be cut off from among his people.
22 Jehovah spoke further to Moses, saying:
23 He speaks to the children of Israel, saying: You shall not eat any fat of ox or lamb or goat.
24 The fat of a dead animal, and the fat of one that was torn to pieces by wild beasts, shall be put to any other use, but you shall not eat it.
25 For whoever eats the fat of an animal, from which an offering made by fire is offered to Jehovah, the person who eats it will be cut off from among his people.
26 Furthermore, you shall not eat any blood in any place where you live, whether of birds or beasts.

27 Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from among his people.
28 Jehovah spoke further to Moses, saying:
29 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: He who offers the peace offering to Jehovah shall bring his peace offering before Jehovah.

30 Their hands will bring the offerings that are to be burned before Jehovah; he will bring the fat with the breast; his breast to be waved as a wave sacrifice before Jehovah.
31 And the priest will burn the fat on the altar, but the breast will be Aaron’s and his sons’.
32 And you shall give to the priest to be raised as an offering, the right shoulder of your peace offerings.
33 Whoever of Aaron’s sons offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat thereof, shall receive the right shoulder as his portion.
34 For I have taken from the peace offerings of the children of Israel the wave breast and the raised shoulder as an offering, and have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons, as a perpetual statute for the children of Israel.
35 This is Aaron’s portion and his sons’ portion of the offerings made by fire to Jehovah, from the day he consecrated them to be priests of Jehovah,
36 which Jehovah commanded to be given to them, from the day he anointed them. from among the children of Israel, as a perpetual statute throughout their generations.
37 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the offering, of the sin offering, of the guilt offering, of consecrations, and of the peace offering,
38 which Jehovah commanded Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day that he commanded to the children of Israel to offer their offerings to Jehovah in the desert of Sinai.

25Después tomó la grosura, la cola, toda la grosura que estaba sobre los intestinos, la grosura del hígado, los dos riñones y la grosura de ellos, y la espaldilla derecha.
26Y del canastillo de los panes sin levadura, que estaba delante de Jehová, tomó una torta sin levadura, y una torta de pan de aceite, y una hojaldre, y lo puso con la grosura y con la espaldilla derecha.
27Y lo puso todo en las manos de Aarón, y en las manos de sus hijos, e hizo mecerlo como ofrenda mecida delante de Jehová.
28Después tomó aquellas cosas Moisés de las manos de ellos, y las hizo arder en el altar sobre el holocausto; eran las consagraciones en olor grato, ofrenda encendida a Jehová.
29Y tomó Moisés el pecho, y lo meció, ofrenda mecida delante de Jehová; del carnero de las consagraciones aquella fue la parte de Moisés, como Jehová lo había mandado a Moisés.
30Luego tomó Moisés del aceite de la unción, y de la sangre que estaba sobre el altar, y roció sobre Aarón, y sobre sus vestiduras, sobre sus hijos, y sobre las vestiduras de sus hijos con él; y santificó a Aarón y sus vestiduras, y a sus hijos y las vestiduras de sus hijos con él.
31Y dijo Moisés a Aarón y a sus hijos: Hervid la carne a la puerta del tabernáculo de reunión; y comedla allí con el pan que está en el canastillo de las consagraciones, según yo he mandado, diciendo: Aarón y sus hijos la comerán.
32Y lo que sobre de la carne y del pan, lo quemaréis al fuego.
33De la puerta del tabernáculo de reunión no saldréis en siete días, hasta el día que se cumplan los días de vuestras consagraciones; porque por siete días seréis consagrados.
34De la manera que hoy se ha hecho, mandó hacer Jehová para expiaros.
35A la puerta, pues, del tabernáculo de reunión estaréis día y noche por siete días, y guardaréis la ordenanza delante de Jehová, para que no muráis; porque así me ha sido mandado.
36Y Aarón y sus hijos hicieron todas las cosas que mandó Jehová por medio de Moisés.

Leviticus Chapter 8

Consecration of Aaron and his sons

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, the anointing oil, the calf of sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread;
3 and he gathers the whole congregation together at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 So Moses did as Jehovah commanded him, and the congregation gathered at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
5 And Moses said to the congregation, This is what Jehovah has commanded to be done.
6 Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons near, and washed them with water.
7 And he put the tunic on him, and girded him with the girdle; Then he dressed him in the cloak, and put the ephod on it, and girded it with the sash of the ephod, and fastened it with it.
8 Then he put the breastplate on it, and put the Urim and Thummim inside it.
9 Then he put the miter on his head, and on the miter in front, he put the gold plate, the holy diadem, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
10 And Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and all the things that were in it, and sanctified them.
11 And he sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its utensils, and the laver and its stand, to sanctify them.
12 And he poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head, and anointed him to sanctify him.
13 Then Moses brought Aaron’s sons near, and dressed them in tunics, girded them with sashes, and fastened tiaras on them, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
14 Then he brought the calf of sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the calf of sin offering,
15 and he slaughtered it; and Moses took the blood, and put it with his finger on the horns of the altar round about, and cleansed the altar; and he poured the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar, and sanctified it to reconcile on it.
16 Then he took all the fat that was on the intestines, and the fat of the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat of them, and Moses burned them on the altar.
17 But the calf, its skin, its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
18 Then he had the ram of the burnt offering brought, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram;
19 and he slew him; and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar all around,
20 and he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat.
21 Then he washed the intestines and the legs with water, and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar; a burnt offering of a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to Jehovah, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
22 Then he had the other ram brought, the ram of consecration, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
23 And he slew him; And Moses took some of the blood, and put it on the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.
24 Then he brought Aaron’s sons near, and put Moses’ blood on the lobes of his right ears, on the thumbs of his right hands, and on the big toes of his right feet; And Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar all around.

25 Then he took the fat, the tail, all the fat that was on the intestines, the fat of the liver, the two kidneys and their fat, and the right shoulder.
26 And from the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the LORD, he took an unleavened cake, and a cake of oil bread, and a wafer, and put it with the fat and with the right shoulder.
27 And he put it all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons, and waved it as a wave offering before the Lord.
28 Then Moses took those things from their hands, and he burned them on the altar over the burnt offering; They were the consecrations of a sweet smell, an offering made by fire to Jehovah.
29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it, a wave offering before the Lord; of the ram of consecration that was Moses’ portion, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
30 Then Moses took some of the anointing oil and the blood that was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, and on his clothing, and on his sons, and on the clothing of his sons with him; and he sanctified Aaron and his clothing, and his sons and his sons’ clothing with him.
31 And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, Boil the meat at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation; and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of consecration, as I have commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
32 And what is left of the meat and the bread, you will burn with the fire.
33 You shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation for seven days, until the day when the days of your consecration are fulfilled; because for seven days you will be consecrated.
34 Jehovah commanded the same thing to be done today to atone for you.
35 Therefore you will stand at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation day and night for seven days, and you will keep the ordinance before Jehovah, so that you will not die; for thus he has been commanded me.
36 And Aaron and his sons did all that Jehovah commanded by Moses.

Leviticus Chapter 9

Aaron's sacrifices

1 On the eighth day, Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel;
2 And he said to Aaron, Take from the herd a bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before Jehovah.
3 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Take a goat for a sin offering, and a bullock and a lamb of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering.
4 Also an ox and a ram for a peace offering, which you sacrifice before Jehovah, and an offering mixed with oil; for Jehovah will appear to you today.
5 And they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation, and the whole congregation came and stood before Jehovah.
6 Then Moses said, This is what Jehovah commanded; Do it, and the glory of Jehovah will appear to you.
7 And Moses said to Aaron, Come near to the altar, and make your atonement and your burnt offering, and make reconciliation for yourself and for the people; make also the offering of the people, and make reconciliation for them, as Jehovah has commanded.
8 Then Aaron approached the altar and slaughtered the calf of sin offering that was for it.
9 And Aaron’s sons brought him the blood; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured out the rest of the blood at the foot of the altar.
10 And he burned the fat with the kidneys and the fat of the liver of the sin offering on the altar, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
11 But the flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp.
12 He also slaughtered the burnt offering, and Aaron’s sons presented the blood to him, which he sprinkled around on the altar.
13 Then they presented him the burnt offering piece by piece, and the head; and he burned it on the altar.
14 Then he washed the intestines and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar.
15 He also offered the people’s offering, and took the goat that was for the people’s atonement, and slaughtered it, and offered it for sin as the first.
16 And he offered the burnt offering, and did according to the ritual.
17 He also offered the offering, and filled his hand with it, and burned it on the altar, in addition to the morning burnt offering.
18 He also slaughtered the ox and the ram as a peace offering, which belonged to the people; And Aaron’s sons presented him with the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar all around;

19 and the fat of the ox and the ram, the tail, the fat that covers the intestines, the kidneys, and the fat of the liver;

20 and they put the fat on the breasts, and he burned it on the altar.
21 But Aaron waved the breasts with the right shoulder as a wave offering before Jehovah, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
22 Then Aaron raised his hands toward the people and blessed them; and after making the atonement, the burnt offering, and the peace offering, he came down.
23 And Moses and Aaron entered into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out and blessed the people; and the glory of Jehovah appeared to all the people.
24 And fire came out from before Jehovah, and he consumed the burnt offering with the fat on the altar; And when all the people saw him, they praised him, and fell on his face.

Leviticus Chapter 10

The sin of Nadab and Abihu

1 Nadab and Abihu, Aaron’s sons, each took his censer, and put fire in them, on which they put incense, and they offered strange fire before Jehovah, which he never commanded them.
2 And fire came out from before Jehovah and burned them, and they died before Jehovah.
3 Then Moses said to Aaron, This is what Jehovah spoke, saying: In those who come to me I will sanctify myself, and in the presence of all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron was silent.
4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, Come near and bring out your brothers from before the sanctuary, outside the camp.
5 And they came near and led them out of the camp with their tunics, as Moses said.
6 Then Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar his sons, Do not uncover your heads, nor tear your clothes in mourning, lest you die, nor anger rise up against the whole congregation; But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, will mourn for the burning that Jehovah has made.
7 Nor shall you go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, for you will die; for the anointing oil of Jehovah is upon you. And they did according to the saying of Moses.
8 And Jehovah spoke to Aaron, saying,
9 You and your sons with you shall not drink wine or strong drink when you enter the tabernacle of the congregation, lest you die; It will be a perpetual statute for your generations,
10 to discern between what is holy and what is profane, and between what is unclean and what is clean,
11 and to teach the children of Israel all the statutes that Jehovah told them through Moses.
12 And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar, and to Ithamar, his remaining sons, Take the offering that is left of the offerings made by fire to Jehovah, and eat it unleavened at the altar, for it is a very holy thing.
13 Therefore you will eat it in a holy place; for this is for you and for your children, from the offerings made by fire to Jehovah, since thus he has commanded me.
14 You shall also eat in a clean place, you and your sons and your daughters with you, the waved breast and the lifted shoulder, for they are yours and your children’s by right, given from the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 With the offerings of the fat that are to be burned, they shall bring the shoulder that is to be lifted up and the breast that is to be waved as a wave offering before Jehovah; and it shall be by right forever to you and to your children, as Jehovah has commanded.

16 And Moses asked about the goat of the sin offering, and it was found that it had been burned; and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, saying,

17 Why did you not eat the atonement in a holy place? For it is very holy, and he gave it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, so that they may be reconciled before Jehovah.
18 See that the blood was not taken into the sanctuary; and you were to eat the offering in the holy place, as I commanded.
19 And Aaron said to Moses, Behold, today they have offered their atonement and their burnt offering before Jehovah; But these things have happened to me, and if I had eaten of the atoning sacrifice today, would this have been pleasing to Jehovah?
20 And when Moses heard this, he was satisfied.

Leviticus Chapter 11

Clean and unclean animals

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: These are the animals that you will eat of all the animals that are on the earth.
3 Of all the animals, whoever has a cloven hoof and chews the cud, this you will eat.
4 But of those that chew the cud or that have a hoof, these you will not eat: the camel, because it chews the cud but does not have a cloven hoof, you will consider it unclean.
5 Also the rabbit, because it chews the cud but has no hoof, you will consider it unclean.
6 Likewise the hare, because it chews the cud but has no hoof, you will consider it unclean.
7 Also the pig, because it has hooves, and is cloven-hooved, but does not chew the cud, you will consider it unclean.
8 You shall not eat their flesh, nor touch their dead body; you will consider them unclean.
9 These you shall eat of all the animals that live in the waters: all that have fins and scales in the waters of the sea, and in the rivers, these you shall eat.
10 But as many as do not have fins or scales in the sea and in the rivers, both everything that moves and every living thing that is in the water, you will hold them an abomination.
11 Therefore they will be an abomination to you; You shall not eat their flesh, and you shall abhor their dead bodies.
12 Whatever does not have fins and scales in the waters is an abomination to you.
13 And of the birds, these you will hold in abomination; They will not be eaten, they will be an abomination: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the goshawk,
14 the buzzard, the kite according to its kind;
15 every raven according to its kind;
16 the ostrich, the owl, the gull, the sparrowhawk according to their kind;
17 the owl, the grebe, the ibis,
18 the swarm, the pelican, the vulture,
19 the stork, the heron according to its kind, the hoopoe and the bat.
20 Every winged insect that walks on four legs is an abomination to you.
21 But this you will eat of every winged insect that walks on four legs, that has legs in addition to its legs to jump with them on the ground;
22 these you shall eat: the locust after its kind, the shrimp after its kind, the argol after its kind, and the Haceb after its kind.
23 Every winged insect that has four legs is an abomination to you.
24 And because of these things you will be unclean; Anyone who touches his dead body will be unclean until the evening,
25 and anyone who takes anything from his dead body will wash his clothes and will be unclean until the evening.
26Every hoofed animal, but which does not have a cloven hoof, nor chews the cud, you will consider unclean; and whoever touches them will be unclean.
27 And of all the animals that walk on all fours, you will consider anyone who walks on their paws unclean; and everyone who touches their carcasses will be unclean until the evening.
28 And he who carries his carcasses shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the evening; you will consider them unclean.

29 And you will consider unclean these animals that move on the earth: the weasel, the mouse, the frog according to its kind,
30 the hedgehog, the crocodile, the lizard, the lizard and the chameleon.
31 These you will consider unclean among the moving animals, and anyone who touches them when they are dead will be unclean until the evening.
32 And everything on which any of them falls after they are dead will be unclean; whether it is a thing of wood, clothing, skin, sack, or any instrument with which one works, it will be put in water, and it will be unclean until the evening; then it will be clean.

33 Every clay vessel into which any of them falls will be unclean, as will everything that is in it, and you will break the vessel.
34 Any food that is eaten, on which water from such vessels falls, will be unclean; and any drink that is in those vessels will be unclean.

35 Anything on which anything from their carcass falls will be unclean; the oven or stove will be knocked down; They are unclean, and you will consider them unclean.
36 Nevertheless, the fountain and the cistern where water is collected will be clean; but whatever he touches on the corpses will be unclean.
37 And if any of the carcasses fall on any seed that is to be sown, it will be clean.
38 But if water has been put into the seed, and some of the carcasses fall on it, you will consider it unclean.
39 And if any animal that you have to eat dies, whoever touches its carcass will be unclean until the evening.
40 And whoever eats of the dead body shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; Likewise, whoever takes out the dead body must wash its clothes and be unclean until evening.
41 And every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination; will not be eaten.
42 Everything that walks on the chest, and everything that walks on four or more legs, of every creeping animal on the ground, you shall not eat, because it is an abomination.
43 Do not make yourselves abominable with any creeping beast, nor defile yourselves with them, nor be unclean because of them.
44 For I am Jehovah your God; You therefore will sanctify yourselves and be holy, because I am holy; so do not defile your persons with any animal that crawls on the earth.
45 For I am Jehovah, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God: therefore you shall be holy, because I am holy.
46 This is the law concerning the beasts, and the birds, and every living creature that moves in the water, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth,
47 to differentiate between the unclean and the clean, and between the animals that can be eaten and the animals that cannot be eaten.

Leviticus Chapter 12

The purification of women after childbirth

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When a woman conceives and gives birth to a man, she will be unclean seven days; she will be unclean according to the days of her menstruation.
3 And on the eighth day the boy will be circumcised.
4 But she will remain thirty-three days purifying herself from her blood; He will not touch any holy thing, nor will she come to the sanctuary, until the days of her purification are fulfilled.
5 And if she gives birth to a daughter, she will be unclean for two weeks, according to her separation, and she will be cleansed from her blood for sixty-six days.
6 When the days of her purification are fulfilled, for a son or a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of one year old for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin offering, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to the priest;
7 and he will offer them before Jehovah, and make atonement for her, and she will be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for those who give birth to a son or daughter.
8 And if she does not have enough for a lamb, she will then take two turtledoves or two pigeons, one for a burnt offering and one for a sin offering; and the priest will make atonement for her, and she will be clean.

Leviticus Chapter 13

Laws about leprosy

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
2 When a man has a swelling, or a rash, or a white spot on the skin of his body, and there is on the skin of his body like a leprosy sore, he shall be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons the priests.
3 And the priest will look at the sore on the skin of the body; If the hair in the sore has turned white, and the sore appears deeper than the skin of the flesh, it is a leprosy sore; and the priest will recognize him, and declare him unclean.
4 And if there is a white spot on the skin of his body, but it does not appear deeper than the skin, nor has the hair turned white, then the priest shall confine the injured person for seven days.
5 And on the seventh day the priest will look at it; and if the sore remains the same, having not spread into the skin, then the priest will lock him up again for another seven days.
6 And on the seventh day the priest will recognize him again; and if the sore appears to have darkened and has not spread into the skin, then the priest will declare it clean: it was a rash; and he will wash his clothes, and he will be clean.
7 But if the rash spreads on the skin after he showed himself to the priest to be cleansed, he must show himself to the priest again.
8 And if the priest recognizes it and sees that the rash has spread on the skin, he will declare it unclean: it is leprosy.
9 When there is a leprous sore on a man, he shall be brought to the priest.
10 And he will look at it, and if a white tumor appears on the skin, which has changed the color of the hair, and the raw flesh is also revealed,
11 it is chronic leprosy on the skin of his body; and the priest will declare him unclean, and he will not shut him up, because he is unclean.
12 But if leprosy breaks out and spreads through the skin, so that it covers all the skin of the infected person from his head to his feet, as far as the priest can see,
13 then he will recognize him; and if the leprosy has covered his whole body, he will declare the infected person clean; all of her has become white, and he is clean.
14 But in the day when the living flesh appears in it, it will be unclean.
15 And the priest will look at the raw flesh, and he will declare it unclean. Living flesh is unclean; It’s leprosy.
16 But when the living flesh changes and becomes white, then it will come to the priest,
17 and the priest will look; And if the sore has turned white, the priest will declare the one who had the sore clean, and he will be clean.
18 And when there is a split in the skin of the flesh, and it is healed,
19and in the place of the boil there is a swelling, or a reddish white spot, it shall be shown to the priest.
20 And the priest will look; and if it appears to be deeper than the skin, and his hair has turned white, the priest will declare him unclean; It is a leprosy sore that originated in the boil.
21 And if the priest considers it, and no white hair appears on it, nor is it deeper than the skin, but dark, then the priest shall confine him for seven days;
22 and if it spreads on the skin, then the priest will declare it unclean; It’s a sore.
23 But if the white spot remains in its place and has not spread, it is the scar of the boil, and the priest will declare him clean.
24 Likewise, when there is a fire burn on the skin of the body, and there is a whitish, reddish or white spot on the area healed by the fire,
25 the priest will look at it; And if the hair has turned white in the spot, and it appears to be deeper than the skin, it is leprosy that came out in the burn; and the priest will declare it unclean, because it is a leprosy sore.
26 But if the priest looks at it, and there is no white hair in the spot, nor is it deeper than the skin, but it is dark, the priest shall shut him up for seven days.
27 And on the seventh day the priest will recognize it; and if it has spread through the skin, the priest will declare it unclean; It is a leprosy sore.
28 But if the spot remains in its place, and has not spread into the skin, but is dark, it is the scar of the burn; The priest will declare him clean, because it is a sign of the burn.
29 And if a man or woman has a sore on their head or beard,
30 the priest will look at the sore; and if it appears to be deeper than the skin, and its hair is yellowish and thin, then the priest will declare it unclean; It is ringworm, it is leprosy of the head or beard.
31 But when the priest has looked at the scab, and it does not appear to be deeper than the skin, nor is there any black hair in it, the priest shall confine the scab for seven days;
32 and on the seventh day the priest will look at the wound; and if the itch does not appear to have spread, nor is there any yellowish hair in it, nor does the itch appear deeper than the skin,
33 then he will make him shave, but he will not shave the affected place; and the priest will confine the one who has the ringworm for another seven days.
34 And on the seventh day the priest will look at the scab; and if the scab has not spread into the skin, nor does it appear to be deeper than the skin, the priest will declare him clean; and he will wash his clothes and be clean.

35 But if the scab has spread on the skin after it has been purified,
36 then the priest will look at it; and if the ringworm has spread into the skin, let the priest not look for the yellowish hair; It is unclean.
37 But if it seems to him that the itch is stopped, and that black hair has grown in it, the itch is healed; He is clean, and the priest will declare him clean.
38 Likewise, when the man or woman has spots on the skin of his body, white spots,
39 the priest will look, and if somewhat darkened white spots appear on the skin of his body, it is the instep that has sprouted on the skin; the person is clean.
40 And the man, when his hair falls out, is bald, but clean.
41 And if his hair falls towards his forehead, he is bald in front, but clean.
42 But when there is a reddish white sore on his bald spot or on his bald spot, it is leprosy that breaks out on his bald spot or on his bald spot.
43 Then the priest will look at him, and if the swelling of the reddish-white sore appears on his bald head or on his bald head, like the appearance of leprosy on the skin of the body,
44 he is a leper, he is unclean, and the priest will declare it immediately. unclean; He has the sore on his head.
45 And the leper in whom there is a sore will have torn clothes and his head uncovered, and covered up he will proclaim, “Unclean!” unclean!
46 As long as the sore remains in him, he will be unclean; he will be unclean, and will dwell alone; outside the camp will be his dwelling place.
47 When there is a plague of leprosy in a garment, whether it is a garment of wool, or of linen,
48 or of warp or woof of linen or of wool, or of leather, or of any work of leather;
49 and the plague is greenish, or reddish, in clothing or leather, in warp or woof, or in any work of leather; The plague is leprosy, and it must be shown to the priest.
50 And the priest will look at the plague, and will shut up the plagued thing for seven days.
51 And on the seventh day he will look at the plague; And if the plague has spread in the garment, in the warp or in the woof, in the leather, or in any work made of leather, malignant leprosy is the plague; It will be unclean.
52 The garment, the warp or woof of wool or linen, or any work of leather in which there is such a plague, shall be burned, because it is a malignant leprosy; in the fire it will be burned.
53 And if the priest looks, and it does not appear that the plague has spread in the garment, in the warp or in the woof, or in any work of leather,
54 then the priest will order that the place where the plague is be washed, and he will shut it up. again for seven days.
55And the priest will look after the plague is washed away; and if it appears that the plague has not changed its appearance, even though the plague has not spread, it is unclean; you will burn it in the fire; It is penetrating corrosion, whether it is worn on the right or the back of that thing.
56 But if the priest sees it, and it appears that the plague has darkened after it has been washed, he shall cut it off from the garment, from the leather, from the warp, or from the woof.
57 And if it appears again in the garment, the warp or woof, or in any thing of leather, spreading therein, you shall burn with fire that in which the plague is.
58 But the garment, the warp or the woof, or whatever leather thing you wash, and the plague is removed from it, shall be washed a second time, and then it shall be clean.
59 This is the law for the plague of leprosy on clothing of wool or linen, or of warp or woof, or of anything made of leather, to be declared clean or unclean.

Leviticus Chapter 14

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 This will be the law for the leper when he is cleansed: He will be brought to the priest,
3 and he will go outside the camp and examine him; and if he sees that the leper’s plague of leprosy is healed,
4 the priest will immediately order that two live, clean birds, and cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop be taken for the one being purified.
5 And the priest will command to kill a little bird in an earthen vessel over running water.
6 Then he will take the live bird, the cedar, the scarlet, and the hyssop, and he will dip them with the live bird in the blood of the dead bird over the running waters;
7 and he will sprinkle seven times on him who is cleansed from leprosy, and will declare him clean; and he will release the live bird into the field.
8 And he who purifies himself shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself with water, and be clean; and afterward he shall enter the camp, and dwell outside his tent seven days.
9 And on the seventh day he shall shave off all the hair of his head, his beard, and the eyebrows of his eyes, and all his hair, and he shall wash his clothes, and he shall wash his body in water, and he shall be clean.
10 On the eighth day he shall take two lambs without blemish, and one lamb of one year old without blemish, and three tenths of an ephah of fine flour for an offering mixed with oil, and a log of oil.
11 And the priest who purifies him will present before the Lord the one who is to be cleansed, with those things, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
12 And the priest will take a lamb and offer it for a guilt offering, with the log of oil, and he will wave it as a wave offering before Jehovah.
13 And he will slaughter the lamb in the place where the sin sacrifice and burnt offering are slaughtered, in the place of the sanctuary; because as the victim for sin, so also the victim for guilt belongs to the priest; It is a very sacred thing.
14 And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt victim, and the priest shall put it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is being purified, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.
15 Likewise the priest will take of the log of oil, and pour it on the palm of his left hand,
16 and he will dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and he will sprinkle the oil with his finger seven times before Jehovah.
17 And of the remainder of the oil that is in his hand, the priest shall put on the lobe of the right ear of the one who is being purified, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt sacrifice.
18And what remains of the oil that is in his hand, he will put on the head of the one who is being purified; and the priest will make atonement for him before Jehovah.
19 Then the priest will offer the sacrifice for sin, and make atonement for him who is to be purified from his uncleanness; and then he will slaughter the burnt offering,
20 and the priest will bring up the burnt offering and the offering on the altar. Thus the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be clean.
21 But if he is poor and does not have enough money, then he will take a lamb to be offered as a wave offering for reconciliation, and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for an offering, and a log of oil,
22 and two turtledoves or two pigeons, as possible; one will be an atonement for sin, and the other will be a burnt offering.
23 On the eighth day of his purification he shall bring these things to the priest, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before Jehovah.
24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt atonement, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them as a wave offering before Jehovah.
25 Then he shall slaughter the guilt lamb, and the priest shall take some of the guilt blood, and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one who is being purified, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. .
26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil on the palm of his left hand;
27 And with his right finger the priest shall sprinkle the oil that he has in his left hand seven times before Jehovah.
28 The priest will also put some of the oil that is in his hand on the lobe of the right ear of the one who is being purified, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, in the place of the blood of guilt.
29 And the remainder of the oil that the priest has in his hand, he will put on the head of the one who is being purified, to reconcile him before Jehovah.
30 He also will offer one of the turtledoves or one of the pigeons, as he can.
31 One as a sin offering, and the other as a burnt offering, in addition to the offering; and the priest will make atonement for him who is to be purified before Jehovah.
32 This is the law for him who has been plagued with leprosy, and he has no more for his purification.

33 Jehovah also spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
34 When you have entered the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as a possession, if I put a plague of leprosy in any house in the land of your possession,
35 the one from whom will come the house and tell the priest, saying, Something like a plague has appeared in my house.
36 Then the priest will order the house to be vacated before he comes in to look at the plague, so that everything in the house will not be contaminated; and then the priest will come in to examine it.
37 And he will examine the plague; And if there are stains on the walls of the house, greenish or reddish stains, which appear deeper than the surface of the wall,
38 the priest will go out of the house to the door of the house, and he will close the house for seven days.
39 And on the seventh day the priest will return, and he will examine it; and if the plague has spread on the walls of the house,
40 then the priest will command, and they will tear out the stones on which the plague is, and throw them outside the city into an unclean place.
41 And he will scrape the house from the inside all around, and they will pour out the mud that they scrape away outside the city in an unclean place.
42 And they will take other stones and put them in place of the stones taken away; and they will take other clay and cover the house.
43 And if the plague breaks out again in that house, after he has torn up the stones and scraped the house, and after it has been covered,
44 then the priest will go in and examine it; and if the plague appears to have spread in the house, it is malignant leprosy in the house; unclean it is.
45 Therefore he will tear down that house, its stones, its timbers, and all the mixture of the house; and they will carry everything out of the city to an unclean place.
46 And whoever enters that house during the days in which he commanded it to be closed, will be unclean until the evening.
47 And whoever sleeps in that house, he will wash his clothes; Also whoever eats in the house will wash his clothes.
48 But if the priest goes in and examines it, and sees that the plague has not spread in the house after it was covered, the priest will declare the house clean, because the plague has disappeared.
49 Then he will take to clean the house two small birds, and cedar wood, scarlet, and hyssop;
50 and he will slaughter a bird in a clay pot over flowing water.
51 And he will take the cedar, the hyssop, the scarlet, and the live bird, and he will dip them in the blood of the dead bird and in the running water, and he will sprinkle the house seven times.
52And he will purify the house with the blood of the bird, with the running water, with the living bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop and the scarlet.
53 Then he will release the live bird outside the city onto the open field. Thus he will make atonement for the house, and it will be clean.
54 This is the law concerning every plague of leprosy and of the scab,
55 and of the leprosy of the garment, and of the house,
56 and concerning the swelling, and of the rash, and of the white spot,
57 to teach when is unclean, and when clean. This is the law concerning leprosy.

Leviticus Chapter 15

Physical impurities

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: Any male, when he has a discharge of semen, will be unclean.
3 And this will be his uncleanness in his discharge: whether his body distills because of his discharge, or he ceases to distill because of his discharge, he will be unclean.
4 Every bed on which one who has a discharge lies will be unclean; and everything on which he sits will be unclean.
5 And whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes; He also will wash himself with water, and will be unclean until the evening.
6 And whoever sits on that on which the one with the discharge has sat, shall wash his clothes, and shall also wash himself with water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
7 Likewise, whoever touches the body of the one who has a discharge must wash his clothes, and wash himself with water, and will be unclean until the evening.
8 And if he who has a discharge spits on the clean, he shall wash his clothes, and after he has washed with water, he will be unclean until the evening.
9 And every saddle on which one who has a discharge rides will be unclean.
10 Whoever touches anything that has been under him will be unclean until the evening; and he that beareth it shall wash his clothes, and after washing with water, he shall be unclean until the evening.
11 And everyone whom the discharge touches, and does not wash his hands with water, shall wash his clothes, and shall wash himself with water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
12 The clay vessel that the one with the discharge touches will be broken, and every wooden vessel will be washed with water.
13 When he who has the discharge has cleansed himself of his discharge, he shall count seven days from his purification, and he shall wash his clothes, and wash his body in running water, and he shall be clean.
14 And on the eighth day he will take two turtledoves or two pigeons, and come before Jehovah to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and he will give them to the priest;
15 And the priest shall make of the one a sin offering, and of the other a burnt offering; and the priest will purify him from the issue before Jehovah.
16 When a man emits semen, he shall wash his whole body in water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.
17 And every garment, or every skin on which the semen emission falls, shall be washed with water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
18 And when a man lies with a woman and emits semen, both of them shall wash with water, and be unclean until the evening.
19When the woman has a discharge of blood, and her discharge is in her body, she shall be separated seven days; and whoever touches it will be unclean until the evening.
20 Everything on which she lies while she is separated will be unclean; Also everything on which she sits will be unclean.
21 And whoever touches her bed must wash her clothes, and after washing with water, he will be unclean until the evening.
22 Also whoever touches any furniture on which she has sat shall wash her clothes; He shall then wash himself with water, and be unclean until the evening.

23 And whatever is on the bed, or on the chair on which she sat, whoever touches it will be unclean until the evening.
24 If anyone sleeps with her, and her menstruation is on him, he will be unclean for seven days; and every bed on which he sleeps will be unclean.

25 And the woman, when the flow of her blood continues for many days outside the time of her custom, or when she has a flow of blood more than her custom, all the time of her flow she will be unclean as in the days of her custom.
26 Every bed in which she sleeps all the time of her discharge will be to her as the bed of her custom; and every piece of furniture on which she sits will be unclean, like the impurity of her custom.
27 Anyone who touches those things will be unclean; and he will wash his clothes, and wash himself with water, and will be unclean until the evening.

28 And when she is free from her discharge, she will count seven days, and then she will be clean.
29 And on the eighth day he will take with him two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and bring them to the priest at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
30 and the priest shall make of the one a sin offering, and of the other a burnt offering; and the priest shall purify it before Jehovah from the flow of its impurity.
31 Thus you will separate the children of Israel from their impurities, so that they will not die from their impurities because they have defiled my tabernacle that is among them.
32 This is the law for him who has a discharge, and for him who has emission of semen, becoming unclean because of it;
33 and for her who suffers from its custom, and for him who has a discharge, whether male or female, and for the man who sleeps with an unclean woman.

Leviticus Chapter 16

The day of atonement

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses after the death of Aaron’s two sons, when they came before Jehovah and died.
2 And Jehovah said to Moses, Tell your brother Aaron not to enter at all times into the sanctuary behind the veil, before the mercy seat that is over the ark, so that he may not die; for I will appear in the cloud above the mercy seat.
3 With this Aaron will enter the sanctuary: with a calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
4 He will put on the holy linen tunic, and on his body he will have linen underpants, and he will gird himself with the linen girdle, and with the linen miter he will cover himself. They are the holy garments; with them he has to dress after washing his body with water.
5 And from the congregation of the children of Israel he shall take two goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 And he will bring Aaron the calf of sin offering that is his, and he will make reconciliation for himself and for his house.
7 Then he will take the two goats and present them before Jehovah at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8 And Aaron will cast lots for the two goats; one lot for Jehovah, and another lot for Azazel.
9 And he will bring Aaron the goat on which the lot of Jehovah falls, and he will offer it as a sin offering.
10 But the goat on which the lot falls for Azazel, he must present alive before Jehovah to make reconciliation on it, to send it to Azazel into the wilderness.
11 And he will bring Aaron the calf that was for his sin offering, and he will make reconciliation for himself and for his house, and he will slaughter the bull that is his sin offering.
12 Then he will take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before Jehovah, and his fists full of ground fragrant perfume, and he will carry it behind the veil.
13 And he will put the perfume on the fire before Jehovah, and the cloud of the perfume will cover the mercy seat that is over the testimony, so that he will not die.
14 Then he will take some of the blood of the calf and sprinkle it with his finger toward the mercy seat on the east side; Towards the mercy seat he will sprinkle with his finger seven times of that blood.
15 Then he will slaughter the goat as an atonement for the sin of the people, and he will take the blood behind the veil inside, and he will do with the blood as he did with the blood of the calf, and he will sprinkle it on the mercy seat and before the mercy seat.
16 So he will purify the sanctuary, because of the impurities of the children of Israel, because of their transgressions and because of all their sins; In the same way he will also do to the tabernacle of the congregation, which resides among them in the midst of their impurities.
17No man will be in the tabernacle of the congregation when he enters to make atonement in the sanctuary, until he comes out and has made atonement for himself, for his house, and for the whole congregation of Israel.
18 And he will go out to the altar that is before Jehovah, and will make atonement for it, and will take some of the blood of the bullock and the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around.
19 And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and he shall cleanse it, and sanctify it from the filthiness of the children of Israel.
20 When he has finished atoning for the sanctuary and the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, he will bring the live goat;
21 And Aaron will place his two hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel, all their transgressions and all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and he will send it into the wilderness. by the hand of a man destined for this.

22 And that goat will bear all their iniquities upon him to an uninhabited land; and he will let the goat go into the wilderness.
23 Then Aaron will come to the tabernacle of the congregation, and he will take off the linen garments that he had worn to enter the sanctuary, and put them there.
24 Then he will wash his body with water in the place of the sanctuary, and after putting on his garments he will go out, and make his burnt offering, and the people’s burnt offering, and make atonement for himself and for the people.

25 And he shall burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.
26 He who brought the goat to Azazel shall wash its clothes and wash its body with water, and then enter the camp.
27 And they shall bring forth outside the camp the bullock and the goat slain for sin, whose blood was brought into the sanctuary to make atonement; and they will burn their skin, their flesh, and their dung in the fire.
28 He who burns them must wash his clothes and wash his body with water, and then he may enter the camp.
29 And this will be your perpetual statute: In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you will afflict your souls, and you will do no work, neither the native nor the foreigner who dwells among you.
30 For on this day atonement will be made for you, and you will be cleansed from all your sins before Jehovah.
31 It is a Sabbath day for you, and you will afflict your souls; It is a perpetual statute.
32 The priest who is anointed and consecrated to be a priest in his father’s place will make the atonement; and he will put on the linen garments, the sacred garments.
33 And he will make atonement for the holy sanctuary, and the tabernacle of the congregation; He will also make atonement for the altar, for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
34 And this you shall have as a perpetual statute, to make atonement once a year for all the sins of Israel. And Moses did it as the Lord commanded him.

Leviticus Chapter 17

The unique sanctuary

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Speak to Aaron and his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, This is what Jehovah has commanded:
3 Any man of the house of Israel who slaughters an ox or a lamb or a goat, in the camp or without it,
4 and does not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation to offer an offering to Jehovah before the tabernacle of Jehovah, that man shall be guilty of blood; blood spilled; That man shall be cut off from among his people,
5 so that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the midst of the field, to bring them to Jehovah at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation to the priest, and sacrifice themselves. peace sacrifices to Jehovah.
6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Jehovah at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall burn the fat for a pleasing odor to Jehovah.
7 And they will no longer sacrifice their sacrifices to demons, after whom they have committed fornication; They will have this as a perpetual statute throughout their ages.
8 You shall also say to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners living among you, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 and does not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation to do it to Jehovah, that man shall likewise be cut off from his town.

Prohibition of eating blood

10 If any man of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners living among them, eats any blood, I will set my face against the person who eats blood, and I will cut him off from among his people.
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement on the altar for your souls; and the same blood will make atonement for the person.
12 Therefore I have said to the children of Israel: None of you shall eat blood, nor shall the foreigner who sojourns among you eat blood.

13 And any man of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners who dwell among them, who hunts any animal or fowl that is food, shall shed his blood and cover it with earth.

14 For the life of all flesh is its blood; Therefore I have said to the children of Israel: You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood; Anyone who eats it will be cut off.
15 And any person, whether native or foreign, who eats a dead animal or a beast torn to pieces, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and shall be unclean until the evening; then she will be clean.
16 And if he does not wash them, nor wash her body, he will bear her iniquity.

Leviticus Chapter 18

2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I am Jehovah your God.
3 You shall not do as they did in the land of Egypt, where you dwelt; nor shall you do as they do in the land of Canaan, to which I am leading you, nor walk in their statutes.
4 You will do my ordinances, and you will keep my statutes, walking in them. I am Jehovah your God.
5 Therefore you shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, which when a man does, he shall live in them. I am Jehovah.
6 Let no man approach any close relative to reveal his nakedness. I am Jehovah.
7 The nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother, you shall not reveal; your mother is, you will not discover her nakedness.
8 You shall not reveal the nakedness of your father’s wife; It is the nakedness of your father.
9 The nakedness of your sister, your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether born at home or born outside it, her nakedness you shall not reveal.
10 The nakedness of your son’s daughter, or your daughter’s daughter, you shall not reveal her nakedness, because it is your nakedness.
11 The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, begotten of your father, is your sister; You will not reveal her nakedness.

13 You will not reveal the nakedness of your mother’s sister, because she is your mother’s relative.

25 and the land has been defiled; and I visited its iniquity upon it, and the earth vomited out the inhabitants of it.

26 Therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances, and do not do any of these abominations, whether the native or the foreigner who lives among you
27 (for the men of that land who were before you did all these abominations, and the land was contaminated);
28 lest the land vomit out you because you have defiled it, as it vomited out the nation that inhabited it before you.
29 For whoever does any of these abominations, the people who do them will be cut off from among his people.

9 When you reap the harvest of your land, you will not reap to the last corner of it, nor will you glean your harvested land.

Leviticus Chapter 20

Penalties for acts of immorality

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 You shall also say to the children of Israel: Any man of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners living in Israel, who offers one of his children to Molech, will surely die; the people of the land will stone him.
3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he gave his children to Molech, defiling my sanctuary and profaning my holy name.
4 If the people of the land close their eyes to the man who gave his children to Molech, so as not to kill him,
5 then I will set my face against that man and against his family, and I will cut him off from among his people, with all those who committed fornication after him, playing the whore with Molech.
6 And the person who attends to enchanters or soothsayers, to prostitute himself after them, I will set my face against that person, and I will cut him off from among his people.
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore and be holy, for I, Jehovah, am your God.
8 And keep my statutes, and do them. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.
9 Every man who curses his father or his mother will surely die; he cursed his father or his mother; his blood will be on him.
10 If a man commits adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress will surely be put to death.
11 Whoever lies with his father’s wife, he uncovers his father’s nakedness; both are to be killed; His blood will be on them.
12 If anyone sleeps with his daughter-in-law, both of them must die; They committed serious perversion; His blood will be on them.
13 If anyone associates with a man as with a woman, they have committed an abomination; both are to be killed; His blood will be upon them.
14 He who takes a wife and her mother commits vileness; They will burn him and them with fire, so that there will be no vileness among you.
15 Anyone who has copulation with a beast must be killed, and you must kill the beast.
16 And if a woman approaches any animal to mate with it, you shall kill the woman and the animal; they will die inevitably; His blood will be on them.
17 If anyone takes his sister, his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is an execrable thing; therefore they will be killed in the eyes of the children of his people; he discovered the nakedness of his sister; her sin will bear.
18 Whoever sleeps with a menstruating woman, and uncovers her nakedness, uncovers her fountain, and she uncovers the fountain of her blood; both will be cut off from among his people.
19You shall not reveal the nakedness of your mother’s sister, or your father’s sister; for when they discover the nakedness of her relative, they will bear her iniquity.

20 Anyone who sleeps with his father’s brother’s wife has revealed his father’s brother’s nakedness; her sin they will bear; They will die without children.

21 And whoever takes his brother’s wife commits uncleanness; he discovered the nakedness of his brother; without children they will be.
22 Therefore keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them, lest the land vomit you out into which I am bringing you to live.
23 And do not walk in the practices of the nations that I will drive out before you; for they did all these things, and I considered them an abomination.
24 But I have said to you: You will possess their land, and I will give it to you to inherit it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the people.
25 Therefore, you will differentiate between a clean and an unclean animal, and between an unclean and a clean bird; and do not defile yourselves with animals, nor with birds, nor with anything that creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Therefore you must be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and I have separated you from the people to be mine.
27 And the man or woman who evokes spirits of the dead or indulges in divination must die; they will be stoned; His blood will be on them.

Leviticus Chapter 21

Holiness of priests

1 Jehovah said to Moses: Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and tell them not to be defiled by a dead person in their towns.
2 But by her near relative, by his mother or by her father, or by her son or by her brother,
3 or by her virgin sister, close to him, who has not had husband, by her he will be defiled.
4 He will not defile himself like any man of his people, becoming unclean.
5 They shall not make a tonsure on his head, nor shall they shave off the end of his beard, nor shall they make any scratches on his flesh.
6 They will be holy to his God, and will not profane the name of his God, because they offer offerings by fire to Jehovah and the bread of his God; therefore, they will be holy.
7 They shall not marry a harlot or a vile woman, nor a woman divorced from her husband; because the priest is holy to his God.
8 You will sanctify him therefore, because he offers the bread of your God; It will be holy to you, because I, Jehovah, who sanctify you, am holy.
9 And the priest’s daughter, if she begins to commit fornication, dishonors her father; she burned she will be in the fire.
10 And the high priest among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil was poured, and who was consecrated to wear the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor tear his garments,
11 nor enter where there is any dead person; Neither by her father nor by her mother will he be defiled.
12 He neither will go out of the sanctuary, nor defile the sanctuary of his God; for the consecration by the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am Jehovah.
13 He will take a virgin woman as his wife.
14 He will not take a widow, or a divorced woman, or a vile woman, or a harlot, but he will take a virgin as a wife from his people,
15 so that he will not profane her offspring among his people; for I, Jehovah, am he who sanctifies them.
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
17 Speak to Aaron and say to him: None of your descendants throughout their generations, who has any defect, will approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 For no man in whom there is a defect will come near; a blind man, or a lame man, or a mutilated man, or a crippled man,
19 or a man who has a broken foot or a broken hand,
20 or a hunchback, or a dwarf, or who has a cloud in his eye, or who has a scabies, or a scabies, or a testicle bruised
21 No man of the descendants of Aaron the priest, in whom there is a defect, shall approach to offer offerings made by fire to Jehovah. There is a defect in him; He will not approach to offer the bread of his God.
22 Of the bread of his God, of the most holy and of the sanctified things, he may eat.
23But he will not approach behind the veil, nor approach the altar, because there is a defect in it; so that I may not profane my sanctuary, for I, Jehovah, am the one who sanctifies them.
24 And Moses spoke this to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel.

20 Anyone who sleeps with his father’s brother’s wife has revealed his father’s brother’s nakedness; her sin they will bear; They will die without children.

21 And whoever takes his brother’s wife commits uncleanness; he discovered the nakedness of his brother; without children they will be.
22 Therefore keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them, lest the land vomit you out into which I am bringing you to live.
23 And do not walk in the practices of the nations that I will drive out before you; for they did all these things, and I considered them an abomination.
24 But I have said to you: You will possess their land, and I will give it to you to inherit it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the people.
25 Therefore, you will differentiate between a clean and an unclean animal, and between an unclean and a clean bird; and do not defile yourselves with animals, nor with birds, nor with anything that creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Therefore you must be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and I have separated you from the people to be mine.
27 And the man or woman who evokes spirits of the dead or indulges in divination must die; they will be stoned; His blood will be on them.

Leviticus Chapter 22

Sanctity of the offerings

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Tell Aaron and his sons to abstain from the holy things that the children of Israel have dedicated to me, and not to profane my holy name. I am Jehovah.
3 Tell them: Every male of all your descendants in your generations, who comes near to the sacred things that the children of Israel consecrate to Jehovah, having uncleanness on him, will be cut off from my presence. I am Jehovah.
4 Any man of Aaron’s seed who is a leper, or has a discharge, shall not eat of the sacred things until he is clean. Whoever touches anything of a corpse, or a man who has shed semen,
5 or a man who has touched any creeping thing by which he will be unclean, or a man by whom he will become unclean, according to any of his uncleanness;
6 the person who touches it will be unclean until the evening, and he will not eat of the sacred things until he has washed his body with water.
7 When the sun goes down, he will be clean; and then he will be able to eat the sacred things, because they are his food.
8 He will not eat dead or torn to pieces by a wild beast, defiling himself thereby. I am Jehovah.
9 Therefore keep my ordinance, so that you do not bear sin by it, lest you die when you profane it. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.
10 No stranger shall eat any sacred thing; The guest of the priest, and the hired man, shall not eat any sacred thing.
11 But when the priest buys a slave for money, he may eat of it, just as he who is born in his house may eat of his food.
12 The priest’s daughter, if she marries a strange man, she shall not eat of the offering of sacred things.
13 But if the priest’s daughter is a widow or divorced, and she has no children and she has returned to her father’s house, as she was in her youth, she may eat of her father’s food; but no stranger eats from him.
14 And whoever eats a sacred thing by mistake, he shall add to it a fifth part, and give it to the priest with the sacred thing.
15 Therefore they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they set aside for Jehovah;
16 for they would make them bear the iniquity of sin, eating their holy things; for I, Jehovah, am he who sanctifies them.
17 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying:
18 Speak to Aaron and his sons and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners in Israel, who offers his offering in payment of his vows, or as freewill offerings offered as a burnt offering to Jehovah,
19For it to be accepted, you shall offer a male without blemish from the cattle, from the lambs, or from the goats.
20 You shall offer nothing in which there is a defect, for it will not be accepted by you.

21 Likewise, when anyone offers a sacrifice as a peace offering to Jehovah to fulfill a vow, or as a free will offering, whether of cows or sheep, so that it is accepted it will be without defect.
22 Blind, bruised, mutilated, warty, mangy, or filthy, you shall not offer these to Jehovah, nor shall you put any of them as an offering made by fire on the altar of Jehovah.

23 Any ox or ram that is too much or too little, you may offer as a voluntary offering; but in payment of the vote it will not be accepted.
24 You shall not offer to Jehovah an animal with testicles that are wounded or bruised, torn or cut, nor shall you offer it in your own land.

25 Nor shall you take these animals from the hand of foreigners to offer them as the bread of your God, because their corruption is in them; there is a defect in them, they will not be accepted from you.
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
27 When the calf or the lamb or the goat is born, it will suck from its mother for seven days; but from the eighth day forward he will be accepted as an offering of sacrifice by fire to the Lord.
28 And whether it is a cow or a sheep, you shall not slaughter it and its son on the same day.
29 And when you offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Jehovah, you must sacrifice it in a way that is acceptable.
30 On the same day it will be eaten; you will not leave it for another day. I am Jehovah.
31 Therefore keep my commandments and do them. I am Jehovah.
32 And do not profane my holy name, that I may be sanctified among the children of Israel. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you,
33 who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am Jehovah.

Leviticus Chapter 23

The solemn festivals

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: The feasts of Jehovah, which you will proclaim as holy convocations, will be these:
3 Six days there will be work, but the seventh day will be a rest, a holy convocation ; you will do no work; It is the Sabbath of Jehovah wherever you live.
4 These are the solemn feasts of Jehovah, the holy convocations, which you shall call in his time:
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, is the Passover of Jehovah.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the solemn feast of unleavened bread to the Lord; seven days you will eat unleavened bread.
7 On the first day you will have a holy convocation; You will not do any work as servants.
8 And you shall offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah seven days; The seventh day will be a holy convocation; You will not do any servant’s work.
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
10 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When you have entered the land that I am giving you, and you reap its harvest, you shall bring to the priest a sheaf for the first fruits of your harvest.
11 And the priest will wave the sheaf before Jehovah, so that you may be accepted; On the day after the Sabbath he will rock it.
12 And on the day that you offer the sheaf, you shall offer a lamb of one year old, without blemish, as a burnt offering to the Lord.
13 His offering shall be two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to Jehovah for a most pleasant aroma; and his libation shall be of wine, the fourth part of a hin.
14 You shall not eat bread, nor roasted grain, nor fresh ears, until this very day, until you have offered the offering of your God; It is a perpetual statute throughout your ages wherever you live.
15 And you shall count from the day after the Sabbath, from the day in which you offered the sheaf of the wave offering; seven completed weeks will be.
16 Until the day after the seventh day of Sabbath you shall count fifty days; then you will offer the new grain to Jehovah.
17 From your rooms you shall bring two loaves for a wave offering, which shall be two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour, baked with leaven, as firstfruits to Jehovah.
18 And you shall offer with the bread seven lambs of one year old, without blemish, one bullock of the herd, and two rams; They shall be a burnt offering to Jehovah, with his offering and his libations, an offering made by fire of a sweet savor to Jehovah.
19 You shall also offer one goat for a sin offering, and two one-year-old lambs as a peace offering.
20 And the priest shall present them as a wave offering before Jehovah, with the firstfruits bread and the two lambs; They will be a sacred thing to Jehovah for the priest.
21 And you will call on this same day a holy convocation; you will not do any work as servants; a perpetual statute wherever you live throughout your generations.
22 When you reap the harvest of your land, you will not reap to the last corner of it, nor will you glean your harvest; You will leave it for the poor and the foreigner. I am Jehovah your God.
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
24 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: In the seventh month, on the first of the month you will have a Sabbath, a commemoration with the sound of trumpets, and a holy convocation.
25 You shall do no work as servants; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah.
26 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying:
27 On the tenth day of this seventh month will be the day of atonement; You will have a holy convocation, and you will afflict your souls, and you will offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah.

28 You shall do no work on this day; for it is a day of atonement, to reconcile you before Jehovah your God.
29 For every person who does not grieve on this very day will be cut off from his people.
30 And whoever does any work on this day, I will destroy that person from among his people.
31 You will do no work; It is a perpetual statute throughout your generations wherever you live.
32 It shall be a day of rest for you, and you shall afflict your souls, beginning on the ninth day of the month in the evening; From evening to evening you will keep your rest.
33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
34 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: On the fifteenth day of this seventh month there will be the feast of tabernacles to Jehovah for seven days.
35 On the first day there will be a holy convocation; You will not do any work as servants.
36 Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah; On the eighth day you will have a holy convocation, and you will offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah; It is a holiday, you will not do any work as servants.
37 These are the feasts of Jehovah, to which you shall call holy meetings, to offer an offering made by fire to Jehovah, burnt offering and offering, sacrifice and libations, each in its season,
38 besides the Sabbaths of Jehovah, your gifts , of all your vows, and of all your freewill offerings that you are accustomed to give to Jehovah.
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered the fruit of the land, you shall celebrate a festival to Jehovah for seven days; The first day will be a Sabbath, and the eighth day will also be a Sabbath.
40 And on the first day you will take branches with fruit from a beautiful tree, branches from palm trees, branches from leafy trees, and willows from the streams, and you will rejoice before Jehovah your God for seven days.
41 And you shall celebrate a feast to Jehovah for seven days every year; It will be a perpetual statute throughout your generations; In the seventh month you will do it.
42 You will dwell in tabernacles seven days; Every native of Israel will live in tabernacles,
43 so that your descendants may know that I made the children of Israel live in tabernacles when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am Jehovah your God.
44 Thus spoke Moses to the children of Israel concerning the feasts of Jehovah.

Leviticus Chapter 24

Oil for lamps

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel to bring you pure crushed olive oil for lighting, to make the lamps burn continually.
3 Outside the veil of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, Aaron will arrange them from evening until morning before Jehovah; It is a perpetual statute throughout your generations.
4 On the clean lampstand he will always arrange the lamps before Jehovah.

The shewbread

5 And you shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it; each cake will be two tenths of an ephah.
6 And you will put them in two rows, six in each row, on the clean table before Jehovah.
7 You will also put pure incense on each row, and it will be for the bread as a perfume, an offering made by fire to Jehovah.
8 Every Sabbath day he will continually set it in order before Jehovah, in the name of the children of Israel, as a perpetual covenant.
9 And it will be Aaron’s and his sons’, who will eat it in a holy place; for it is a very holy thing for him, of the offerings made by fire to Jehovah, by perpetual right.

Punishment for the blasphemer

10 At that time the son of an Israelite woman, who was the son of an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel quarreled in the camp.
11 And the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; then they brought him to Moses. And his mother was called Shelomith, daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 And they put him in prison, until he was declared to them by the word of Jehovah.
13 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
14 Bring out the blasphemer outside the camp, and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his iniquity.

4 photo

16 And whoever blasphemes the name of Jehovah must be put to death; the whole congregation will stone him; Both the foreigner and the native, if he blasphemes the Name, let him die.
17 Likewise the man who mortally wounds any person, let him suffer death.
18 Whoever hurts an animal must make it up to him, animal for animal.
19 And whoever causes injury to his neighbor, as he did, so be it to him:
20 breakage for breakage, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; According to the injury he has done to another, the same will be done to him.
21 He who hurts an animal must restore it; but whoever strikes a man to death, let him die.
22 You will have the same status for the foreigner, as for the native; for I am Jehovah your God.
23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought the blasphemer out of the camp and stoned him. And the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

Leviticus Chapter 25

The year of rest of the land and the year of jubilee

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When you have entered the land that I am giving you, the land will remain a rest for Jehovah.
3 Six years you will sow your land, and six years you will prune your vineyard and gather its fruits.
4 But in the seventh year the land will have rest, a rest for jehovah; You shall not sow your land, nor prune your vineyard.
5 Whatever grows in your harvested land, you shall not reap, and you shall not harvest the grapes of your vineyard; It will be a year of rest for the land.
6 But the rest of the land will give food to you, to your male and female servant, to your servant, and to your foreigner who lives with you;
7 and to your animals and to the beasts that are in your land, all the fruit thereof will be for food.
8 And you will count seven weeks of years, seven times seven years, so that the days of the seven weeks of years will become forty-nine years to you.
9 Then you shall blow the trumpet loudly in the seventh month on the tenth day of the month; On the day of atonement you will blow the trumpet throughout your land.
10 And you will sanctify the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; That year will be your jubilee, and you will return each one to your possession, and each one will return to his family.
11 The fiftieth year will be a jubilee for you; You will not sow or reap what grows in the land, nor will you harvest its vineyards,
12 because it is a jubilee; It will be holy to you; you will eat the produce of the land.
13 In this year of jubilee you will each return to your possession.
14 And when you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from your neighbor’s hand, let no one deceive his brother.
15 According to the number of years after the jubilee you will buy from your neighbor; According to the number of years of the fruits he will sell to you.
16 The greater the number of years, you will increase the price, and the fewer the number, you will decrease the price; because according to the number of crops he will sell to you.
17 And let no man deceive his neighbor, but fear your God; for I am Jehovah your God.
18 Therefore execute my statutes and keep my ordinances, and do them, and you will dwell in the land safely;
19 and the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill, and you will dwell in it safely.
20 And if you say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? Behold, we must not sow, nor must we gather our fruits;
21 then I will send you my blessing in the sixth year, and it will cause fruit for three years.
22 And you will sow in the eighth year, and you will eat of the old fruit; Until the ninth year, until its fruit comes, you will eat of the old.
23 The land will not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and strangers to me.
24 Therefore in all the land of your possession you shall grant a ransom to the land.
25 When your brother becomes poor and sells something of his possession, then his closest relative will come and redeem what his brother has sold.
26 And when the man has no ransomer, and he gets enough for the ransom,
27 then he will count the years since he sold, and will pay what remains to the man whom he sold, and will return to his possession.
28 But if he does not get enough to have it returned to him, what he sold will be in the possession of him who bought it until the year of jubilee; and at the jubilee he will go out, and he will return to his possession.

29 The man who sells a dwelling house in a walled city will have the power to redeem it until the end of one year from the sale; One year will be the term of being able to redeem.
30 And if he is not redeemed within a whole year, the house that is in the walled city will remain forever in the power of him who bought it, and for his descendants; It will not come out in the jubilee.
31 But the houses of the villages that do not have a wall around them will be valued like the fields of the field; They can be rescued, and they will come out in the jubilee.
32 But as for the cities of the Levites, they may redeem the houses in the cities of their possession at any time.

33 And whoever buys from the Levites will go out of the house sold, or from the city of his possession, in the jubilee, because the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34 But the common land of his cities will not be sold, because it is their perpetual possession.
35 And when your brother becomes poor and takes refuge in you, you will protect him; as a stranger and foreigner he will live with you.

36 You shall not take usury or gain from him, but you shall fear your God, and your brother shall live with you.
37 You shall not give your money for usury, nor your provisions for gain.
38 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
39 And when your brother becomes poor while with you, and sells himself to you, you shall not make him serve as a slave.
40 As a servant, as a stranger he will be with you; until the year of jubilee he will serve you.
41 Then he will go free from your house; he and his children with him, and he will return to his family, and to the possession of his parents it will be restored.
42 For they are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; They will not be sold as slaves.
43 You shall not rule over him harshly, but you shall fear your God.
44 So your male slave and female slave that you have will be of the people that are around you; From them you will be able to buy male and female slaves.
45 You may also purchase from the children of the foreigners who live among you, and from their families born in your land, who are with you, whom you may possess.
46 And you may leave them as an inheritance to your children after you, as an hereditary possession; you will use them forever; But among your brothers the children of Israel you shall not rule each one over his brother harshly.
47 If the stranger or stranger who is with you becomes rich, and your brother who is with him becomes poor, and sells himself to the stranger or stranger who is with you, or to one of the stranger’s family;
48 after he has sold himself, he may be ransomed; one of his brothers will rescue him.
49 Either his uncle or his uncle’s son will rescue him, or a close relative of his family will rescue him; or if his means reach him, he will rescue himself.
50 He will make an account with the one who bought it, from the year it was sold to him until the year of the jubilee; and the price of his sale is to be valued according to the number of years, and the time that he was with him will be counted according to the time of a hired servant.
51 If there are still many years, he will return according to them for his ransom the money for which he was sold.
52 And if there is a short time left until the year of jubilee, then he will make a calculation with him, and will return his ransom according to his years.
53 As with him who is hired annually he will do to him; He will not rule over it harshly before your eyes.
54 And if he is not redeemed in those years, he will go out in the year of jubilee, he and his sons with him.
55For my servants are the children of Israel; They are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am Jehovah your God.

Leviticus Chapter 26

Blessings of obedience

1 You shall not make idols for yourselves, nor sculpture, nor set up a statue, nor place a painted stone in your land to bow down to; for I am Jehovah your God.
2 Keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am Jehovah.
3 If you walk in my decrees and keep my commandments, and do them,
4 I will give your rain in its season, and the earth will yield its produce, and the tree of the field will yield its fruit.
5 Your threshing will reach the vintage, and the vintage will reach the sowing, and you will eat your bread until you are satisfied, and you will live safely in your land.
6 And I will give peace in the land, and you will sleep, and there will be no one to frighten you; and I will remove the evil beasts from your land, and the sword will not pass through your country.
7 And you will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you.
8 Five of you will pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you will pursue ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the edge of the sword before you.
9 For I will return to you, and make you increase, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
10 You will eat what is old from a long time, and you will put away what is old to store the new.
11 And I will make my dwelling place among you, and my soul will not abhor you;
12 and I will walk among you, and I will be your God, and you will be my people.
13 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would not be his servants, and I broke the bonds of your yoke, and made you walk with your faces upright.

Consequences of disobedience

14 But if you will not listen to me, nor do all these my commandments,
15 and if you despise my decrees, and your soul despises my statutes, not doing all my commandments, and breaking my covenant,
16 I will also do this to you: I will send upon you terror, exhaustion and fever, which consume the eyes and torment the soul; and you will sow your seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.
17 I will set my face against you, and you will be wounded before your enemies; and those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee without anyone pursuing you.
18 And if even with these things you do not listen to me, I will again punish you seven times more for your sins.
19 And I will break the arrogance of your pride, and I will make your heaven like iron, and your earth like bronze.
20 Your strength will be wasted in vain, because your land will not yield its produce, and the trees of the land will not yield their fruit.
21 If you walk contrary to me and will not listen to me, I will add seven times as many plagues to you according to your sins.
22 I will also send wild beasts against you to take away your children, destroy your livestock, and reduce your numbers, so that your roads will be deserted.
23 And if you are not corrected by these things, but walk contrary to me,
24 I will also proceed against you, and will strike you seven times for your sins.
25 I will bring upon you an avenging sword, in vindication of the covenant; and if you seek refuge in your cities, I will send pestilence among you, and you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26 When I break your bread, ten women will bake your bread in an oven, and they will return your bread to you by weight; and you will eat, and not be satisfied.
27 If even with this you will not listen to me, but instead proceed with me in opposition,

28 I will act against you in anger, and I will punish you seven times for your sins.
29 And you will eat the flesh of your sons, and you will eat the flesh of your daughters.
30 I will destroy your high places, and I will tear down your images, and I will put your dead bodies on the dead bodies of your idols, and my soul will abhor you.

31 I will make your cities deserted, and I will desolate your sanctuaries, and I will not smell the fragrance of your sweet perfume.
32 I will also desolate the land, and your enemies who dwell in it will be astonished;
33 and I will scatter you among the nations, and I will draw out a sword after you; and your land will be desolate, and your cities will be deserted.
34 Then the land will enjoy its Sabbaths, all the days that it is desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies; The earth will then rest and enjoy its days of rest.
35 As long as it is desolate, it will rest because it did not rest on the Sabbath days when you lived there.
36 And I will put such cowardice into the hearts of those who remain of you, in the land of their enemies, that the sound of a moving blade will pursue them, and they will flee as before the sword, and they will fall without anyone pursuing them.
37 They will stumble over each other as if they were fleeing from the sword, although no one pursues them; and you will not be able to resist before your enemies.

38 And you will perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies will consume you.
39 And those who remain of you will decay in the lands of your enemies because of their iniquity; and through the iniquity of their fathers they will decay with them.
40 And they will confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, for their transgression with which they transgressed against me; and also because they walked against me,
41 I also will have walked against them, and I will have brought them into the land of their enemies; and then their uncircumcised hearts will be humbled, and they will acknowledge their sin.
42 Then I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and I will also remember my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.
43 But the land will be abandoned by them, and will enjoy its Sabbaths, being deserted because of them; and then they will submit to the punishment of their iniquities; because they despised my ordinances, and their soul was disgusted with my statutes.
44 And even with all this, while they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, nor will I abhor them to consume them, nullifying my covenant with them; for I, Jehovah, am your God.
45 But I will remember them by the old covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, to be their God. I am Jehovah.
46 These are the statutes, ordinances, and laws that Jehovah established between himself and the children of Israel on Mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

Leviticus Chapter 27

Things consecrated to God

1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When anyone makes a special vow to the Lord, according to the estimation of the people who are to be redeemed, you shall estimate it like this:
3 As for the man of twenty years old up to sixty, you will estimate it at fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.
4 And if she be a woman, you shall estimate her at thirty shekels.
5 And if she is from five years old to twenty, you shall estimate the male at twenty shekels, and the female at ten shekels.
6 And if he be from one month to five years, then you shall estimate the male at five shekels of silver, and the woman at three shekels of silver.
7 But if he is sixty years old or older, you will estimate the male at fifteen shekels, and the woman at ten shekels.
8 But if he is too poor to pay your estimate, then he will be brought before the priest, who will set the price; According to the possibility of the one who made the vow, the priest will set a price.
9 And if it be one of those offered as an offering to Jehovah, whatever of such is given to Jehovah will be holy.
10 He will not be changed or exchanged, good for bad, nor bad for good; and if one animal is exchanged for another, it and the one given in exchange for it will be sacred.
11 If it be an unclean animal, from which no offering is offered to Jehovah, then the animal will be placed before the priest,
12 and the priest will evaluate it, whether it is good or bad; according to the estimation of the priest, so it will be.
13 And if he wants to redeem it, he will add a fifth part to your valuation.
14 When someone dedicates his house and consecrates it to Jehovah, the priest will evaluate it, whether it is good or bad; According to the priest’s assessment, so it will remain.
15 But if he who dedicated his house desires to redeem it, he will add to your valuation a fifth of the value of it, and it will be his.
16 If anyone dedicates the land of his possession to Jehovah, your estimate will be according to his sowing; One homer of sowing barley will be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17 And if he dedicates his land from the year of Jubilee, it will be according to your estimate.
18 But if after the jubilee I dedicate his land, then the priest will count the money according to the years that remain until the year of the jubilee, and he will be lowered from your estimation.
19 And if the one who dedicated the land wants to redeem it, he will add to your estimate a fifth of the price of it, and it will remain for himself.
20 But if he does not redeem the land, and the land is sold to another, he will not redeem it any more;
21 but when it comes out in the jubilee, the land will be holy to Jehovah, as a consecrated land; the possession of it will be the priest’s.
22 And if a man dedicates to Jehovah the land that he bought, which was not of the land of his inheritance,
23 then the priest will calculate with him the sum of your estimate until the year of jubilee, and on that day he will give your appointed price, which consecrated to Jehovah.

24 In the year of jubilee, the land will return to him from whom he bought it, whose inheritance is the land.
25 And everything you value will be according to the shekel of the sanctuary; The shekel has twenty geras.
26 But the firstborn of the animals, which is the Lord’s by birthright, no one will dedicate; whether ox or sheep, it is Jehovah’s.
27 But if it is from unclean animals, they will redeem it according to your estimate, and add to it a fifth of its price; and if it is not rescued, it will be sold according to your estimate.

28 But no consecrated thing, which anyone has dedicated to Jehovah, will be sold or redeemed; of all that he has, of men and animals, and of the lands of his possession, everything consecrated will be a most holy thing to Jehovah.
29 No person separated as anathema can be rescued; It must inevitably be killed.
30 And the tithe of the land, both of the seed of the land and of the fruit of the trees, is Jehovah’s; It is something dedicated to Jehovah.
31 And if anyone wants to redeem anything from the tithe, he will add a fifth of its price for it.
32 And every tithe of herds or of sheep, of everything that passes under the rod, the tithe will be consecrated to Jehovah.
33 He will not look at whether it is good or bad, nor will he change it; and if he exchanges it, both he and the one who was given in exchange will be sacred things; They cannot be rescued.
34 These are the commandments that Jehovah commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
