1 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων,

2 ἔντειλαι τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ λαβέτωσάν σοι ἔλαιον ἐλάϊνον καθαρὸν κεκομμένον εἰς φῶς, καῦσαι λύχνον διαπαντὸς,

3 ἔξωθεν τοῦ καταπετάσματος ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ τοῦ μαρτυρίου· καὶ καύσουσιν αὐτὸ Ἀαρὼν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ ἑσπέρας ἕως πρωῒ ἐνώπιον Κυρίου ἐνδελεχῶς, νόμιμον αἰώνιον εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν.

4 Ἐπὶ τῆς λυχνίας τῆς καθαρᾶς καύσετε τοὺς λύχνους ἐναντίον Κυρίου ἕως εἰς τοπρωΐ.

5 Καὶ λήμψεσθε σεμίδαλιν, καὶ ποιήσετε αὐτὴν δώδεκα ἄρτους· δύο δεκάτων ἔσται ὁ ἄρτος ὁ εἷς.

6 Καὶ ἐπιθήσετε αὐτοὺς δύο θέματα, ἓξ ἄρτους τὸ ἓν θέμα ἐπὶ τὴν τράπεζαν τὴν καθαρὰν ἔναντι Κυρίου.

7 Καὶ ἐπιθήσετε ἐπὶ τὸ θέμα λίβανον καθαρὸν καὶ ἅλα, καὶ ἔσονται εἰς ἄρτους εἰς ἀνάμνησιν προκείμενα τῷ Κυρίῳ.

8 Τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων προσθήσεται ἔναντι Κυρίου διαπαντὸς ἐνώπιον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, διαθήκην αἰώνιον.

9 Καὶ ἔσται Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ· καὶ φάγονται αὐτὰ ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ· ἔστι γὰρ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίῳν τοῦτο αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῶν θυσιαζομένων τῷ Κυρίῳ, νόμιμον αἰώνιον.

10 Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν υἱὸς γυναικὸς Ἰσραηλίτιδος, καὶ οὗτος ἦν υἱὸς Αἰγυπτίου ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἐμαχέσαντο ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ ὁ ἐκ τῆς Ἰσραηλίτιδος, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ Ἰσραηλίτης.

11 Καὶ ἐπονομάσας ὁ υἱὸς τῆς γυναικὸς τῆς Ἰσραηλίτιδος τὸ ὄνομα κατηράσατο· καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς Μωυσῆν· καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Σαλωμεὶθ θυγάτηρ Δαβρεὶ ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Δάν.

12 Καὶ ἀπέθεντο αὐτὸν εἰς φυλακὴν διακρῖναι αὐτὸν διὰ προστάγματος Κυρίου.

13 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων,

14 ἐξάγαγε τὸν καταρασάμενον ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, καὶ ἐπιθήσουσι πάντες οἱ ἀκούσαντες τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ λιθοβολήσουσιν αὐτὸν πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγή.

15 Καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ λάλησον, καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἐὰν καταράσηται Θεὸν, ἁμαρτίαν λήψεται.

16 Ὀνομάζων δὲ τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, θανάτῳ θανατούσθω· λίθοις λιθοβολείτω αὐτὸν πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ Ἰσραήλ· ἐάν τε προσήλυτος ἐάν τε αὐτόχθων, ἐν τῷ ὀνομάσαι αὐτὸν τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, τελευτάτω.

17 Καὶ ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν πατάξῃ ψυχὴν ἀνθρώπου, καὶ ἀποθάνῃ, θανάτῳ θανατούσθω.

18 Καὶ ὃς ἂν πατάξῃ κτῆνος, καὶ ἀποθάνῃ, ἀποτισάτω ψυχὴν ἀντὶ ψυχῆς.

19 Καὶ ἐάν τις δῷ μῶμον τῷ πλησίον, ὡς ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ, ὡσαύτως ἀντιποιηθήσεται αὐτῷ·

20 Σύντριμμα ἀντὶ συντρίμματος, ὀφθαλμὸν ἀντὶ ὀφθαλμοῦ, ὀδόντα ἀντὶ ὀδόντος, καθότι ἂν δῷ μῶμον τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ, οὕτω δοθήσεται αὐτῷ.

21 Ὃς ἂν πατάξῃ ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ἀποθάνῃ, θανάτῳ θανατούσθω.

22 Δικαίωσις μία ἔσται τῷ προσηλύτῳ καὶ τῷ ἐγχωρίῳ, ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν.

23 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἐξήγαγον τὸν καταρασάμενον ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, καὶ ἐλιθοβόλησαν αὐτὸν ἐν λίθοις· καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐποίησαν καθάπερ συνέταξε Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ.

Brenton English

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Charge the children of Israel, and let them take for thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to burn a lamp continually,

3 outside the veil in the tabernacle of witness; and Aaron and his sons shall burn it from evening until morning before the Lord continually, a perpetual statute throughout your generations.

4 Ye shall burn the lamps on the pure lamp-stand before the Lord till the morrow.

5 And ye shall take fine flour, and make of it twelve loaves; each loaf shall be of two tenth parts.

6 And ye shall put them in two rows, each row containing six loaves, on the pure table before the Lord.

7 And ye shall put on each row pure frankincense and salt; and these things shall be for loaves for a memorial, set forth before the Lord.

8 On the sabbath-day they shall be set forth before the Lord continually before the children of Israel, for an everlasting covenant.

9 And they shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat them in the holy place: for this is their most holy portion of the offerings made to the Lord, a perpetual statute.

10 And there went forth a son of an Israelitish woman, and he was son of an Egyptian man among the sons of Israel; and they fought in the camp, the son of the Israelitish woman, and a man who was an Israelite.

11 And the son of the Israelitish woman named THE NAME and cursed; and they brought him to Moses: and his mother's name was Salomith, daughter of Dabri of the tribe of Dan.

12 And they put him in ward, to judge him by the command of the Lord.

13 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

14 Bring forth him that cursed outside the camp, and all who heard shall lay their hands upon his head, and all the congregation shall stone him.

15 And speak to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whosoever shall curse God shall bear his sin.

16 And he that names the name of the Lord, let him die the death: let all the congregation of Israel stone him with stones; whether he be a stranger or a native, let him die for naming the name of the Lord.

17 And whosoever shall smite a man and he die, let him die the death.

18 And whosoever shall smite a beast, and it shall die, let him render life for life.

19 And whosoever shall inflict a blemish on his neighbour, as he has done to him, so shall it be done to himself in return;

20 bruise for bruise, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as any one may inflict a blemish on a man, so shall it be rendered to him.

21 Whosoever shall smite a man, and he shall die, let him die the death.

22 There shall be one judgment for the stranger and the native, for I am the Lord your God.

23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones: and the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
