15 ā[1] And the Lord spake with Mosheh, saying:
ā[2] Speak with the sons of Israel, and say to them: When you have entered into the land of your habitation which I will give you,
ā[3] and you may make an oblation upon the altar before the Lord, burnt offering or consecrated sacrifice for release of a vow, or by free-will offering; or at the time of your feasts you offer what is acceptable to the Lord of the world, to be received with approval before the Lord from the herd or from the flock:
ā[4] let the man who offers his oblation before the Lord bring a mincha of a tenth of flour mingled with the fourth of a hina of olive oil;
ā[5] and wine of grapes for a libation, the fourth of a hina, to be made upon the burnt offering or hallowed sacrifice-for one lamb.
ā[6] Or for a ram, let him perform a mincha of two tenths of flour mingled with the third of a hin of olive oil,
ā[7] and wine of grapes let him offer in a vase for the libation, the third of a hin, to be received with acceptance before the Lord.
ā[8] But when he maketh a bullock a burnt offering, or a sacrifice for release from a vow, or a hallowed sacrifice before the Lord,
ā[9] let him bring for the bullock a mincha of three tenths of flour mixed with half of a hin of olive oil,
ā[10] and wine of grapes half a hin, for a libation to be received with acceptance before the Lord.
ā[11] So let him do with each bullock, with each ram, and each lamb, whether it be from the lambs or the kids:
ā[12] according to the number of the bullocks or lambs or goats with which the oblation is made so shall you do, each according to their number.
ā[13] All who are native born in Israel, and not of the sons of the Gentiles, shall so make these libations in offering an oblation to be received with acceptance before the Lord.
ā[14] And when a sojourner who sojourneth with you, or whoever is among you now, or in your generations, will bring an oblation to be received with favour before the Lord, as you do so shall he.
ā[15] For the whole congregation there is one statute, for you and the sojourner who sojourneth; it is an everlasting statute for your generations; as with you, so shall it be with the sojourner before the Lord.
ā[16] One law and one judgment shall be for you and for the sojourner who sojourneth with you.
ā[17] And the Lord spake with Mosheh, saying:
ā[18] Speak with the sons of Israel, and say to them: When you have entered the land into which I will bring you,
ā[19] and you eat the bread of the produce of it, (not rice, nor millet, nor pulse,)
ā[20] you shall set apart a separation before the Lord. Of the first of your dough one cake of twenty-four you shall set apart as a separation for the priest; as with the separation from the threshing floor, so shall you set it apart.
ā[21] Of the first of your dough you shall give a separation before the Lord in your generations.
ā[22] And should you have erred, and not performed some one of all these commandments which the Lord hath spoken with Mosheh;
ā[23] whatsoever the Lord hath commanded you by Mosheh from the day He commanded it, and thenceforth unto your generations -
ā[24] if without the knowledge of the congregation sin hath been committed through ignorance, let all the congregation make one young bullock a burnt offering to be received with acceptance before the Lord, with his mincha and libation. as are proper; and one kid of the goats without mixture for a sin offering;
ā[25] and let the priest make atonement for all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for it was an error, and they have brought their oblation, an offering before the Lord, even an offering for their sin have they presented before the Lord for their error;
ā[26] and all the congregation of Israel shall be forgiven before the Lord, and the sojourners who sojourn among them; for an error hath occurred to the people.
ā[27] And if any one man sin through ignorance, let him bring one goat of the year without mixture for a sin offering,
ā[28] and let the priest make atonement for the man who hath erred in sinning through ignorance before the Lord to atone for him, that it may be forgiven him;
ā[29] as well for the native-born of the children of Israel, and for the strangers who sojourn among you, there shall be one law for him who transgresseth through ignorance:
ā[30] but a man who transgresseth. with presumption, whether of the native-born or strangers, and who turneth. not away from his sin before the Lord, - he causeth anger, and that man shall perish from among his people;
ā[31] for, the primal word which the Lord commanded on Sinai he hath despised, and hath made the commandment of circumcision vain; with destruction in this world shall that man be destroyed; in the world that cometh shall he give account of his sin at the great day of judgment.
ā[32] And while the sons of Israel were dwelling in the wilderness, the decree of the Sabbath was known to them, but the punishment (for the profanation) of the Sabbath was not known. And there arose a man of the house of Joseph, and said with himself: I will go and pull up wood on the Sabbath day; and witnesses saw it, and told Mosheh; and Mosheh sought instruction from the presence of the Lord, that he might teach me judgment, and make known the discipline of all the house of Israel. And the witnesses of the man who pulled up and collected wood came,
ā[33] and, after they had monished him, and he had wounded the witnesses who had found him pulling up wood, brought him to Mosheh and Aharon, and all the congregation.
ā[34] This is one of four judgments which were brought before Mosheh the prophet, which he adjudged according to the Word of the Holy. Of these judgments some related to money, and some to life. In the judgments regarding money Mosheh was prompt, but in those affecting life he was deliberate, and in each he said, I have not heard, - to teach the princes of the future Sanhedrin to be prompt in decisions on mammon, and deliberate in those that involved life, nor to be ashamed to inquire for counsel in what may be difficult, forasmuch as Mosheh the Rabbi of Israel himself had need to say, I have not heard. Therefore put they him in confinement, because they had not yet heard the explanation of the judgment they should execute upon him.
ā[35] And the Lord said to Mosheh: The man shall be surely put to death; the whole congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp;
ā[36] and the congregation led him forth without the camp, and stoned him with stones that he died, as the Lord had commanded Mosheh.
ā[37] And the Lord said unto Mosheh:
ā[38] Speak with the sons of Israel, and bid them make for themselves fringes, not of threads, nor of yarns, nor of fibres, but after a manner of their own (lesumhon) shall they make them, and shall cut off the heads of their filaments, and suspend by five ligatures, four in the midst of three, upon the four corners of their garment in which they enwrap themselves, unto their generations; and they shall put upon the edge of their robes an embroidery of hyacinth (shezir de-thikela).
ā[39] And this shall be to you a precept for fringes, that you may look upon them at the time when you dress yourselves daily, and remember all My commandments to do them, and not go aside to wander after the imaginations of your heart and the sight of your eyes, after which you have gone astray.
ā[40] To the end that you may remember and perform all My precepts, and be holy, like the angels who minister before the Lord your God.
ā[41] I am the Lord your God who have delivered and brought you free out of the land of Mizraim, to be to you Eloha. I am the Lord your God.
