1 Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel [God prevails], and tell them, ‘When you have come into the land of your habitations, which I give to you,
3 and will make an offering by fire to Adonai , a burnt offering, or a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or as a free will offering, or in your set feasts, to make a pleasant aroma to Adonai , of the herd, or of the flock;
4 then he who offers his offering shall offer to Adonai a meal offering of one tenth of an ephah [an omer; 2.3 q; 2.2 L] of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin [2.6 qt; 1.2 L] of oil.
5 You shall prepare wine for the drink offering, the fourth part of a hin [2.6 qt; 1.2 L], with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.
6 “ ‘Or for a ram, you shall prepare for a meal offering one tenth of an ephah [two omers; 4.6 q; 4.4 L] of fine flour mixed with the third part of a hin [2.6 qt; 1.24 L] of oil;
7 and for the drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin [2.6 qt; 1.24 L] of wine, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai . (5)
8 When you prepare a bull for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice, to accomplish a vow, or for peace offerings to Adonai ;
9 then shall he offer with the bull a meal offering of three tenths of an ephah [three omers; 6.9 q; 6.6 L] of fine flour mixed with half a hin [5.2 qt; 2.4 L] of oil:
10 and you shall offer for the drink offering half a hin [5.2 qt; 2.4 L] of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai .
11 Thus shall it be done for each bull, or for each ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the young goats.
12 According to the number that you shall prepare, so you shall do to everyone according to their number.
13 “ ‘All who are native-born shall do these things in this way, in offering an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai .
14 If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you, or whoever may be among you throughout all your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai ; as you do, so he shall do.
15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner, a statute forever throughout all your generations. As you are, so shall the foreigner be before Adonai .
16 One Torah ·Teaching· and one judgement shall be for you, and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner with you.’ ”
(6)
17 Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
18 “Speak to the children of Israel [God prevails], and tell them, ‘When you come into the land where I bring you,
19 then it shall be that when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up a wave offering to Adonai .
20 Of the first of your dough you shall offer up a cake for a wave offering. As the wave offering of the threshing floor, so you shall heave it.
21 Of the first of your dough, you shall give to Adonai a wave offering throughout all your generations.
22 “ ‘If by mistake you fail to observe all these mitzvot ·instructions·, which Adonai has spoken to Moses [Drawn out],
23 even all that Adonai has enjoined you by Moses [Drawn out], from the day that Adonai gave commandment, and onward throughout all your generations;
24 then it shall be, if it was done unwittingly, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bull for a burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma to Adonai , with its meal offering, and its drink offering, according to the judgement, and one male goat for a sin offering.
25 The priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering made by fire to Adonai , and their sin offering before Adonai , for their error.
26 All the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails] shall be forgiven, as well as the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them; for with regard to all the people, it was done unwittingly.
(7)
27 “ ‘If one person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.
28 The priest shall make atonement for the soul who errors, when he sins unwittingly before Adonai , to make atonement for him; and he shall be forgiven.
29 You shall have one Torah ·Teaching· for him who does anything unwittingly, for him who is native-born among the children of Israel [God prevails], and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them.
30 “ ‘But the soul who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, the same blasphemes Adonai . That soul shall be cut off from among his people.
31 Because he has despised Adonai ’s word, and has broken his order, that soul shall utterly be cut off. His iniquity shall be on him.’ ”
32 While the children of Israel [God prevails] were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath ·To cease· day.
33 Those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer], and to all the congregation.
34 They put him in custody, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.
35 Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “The man shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him with stones outside of the camp.”
36 All the congregation brought him outside of the camp, and stoned him to death with stones, as Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out].
(Maftir ·Conclusion·)
37 Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
38 “Speak to the children of Israel [God prevails], and tell them that they should make themselves fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of each border a cord of blue:
39 and it shall be to you for a fringe, that you may look on it, and remember all Adonai ’s mitzvot ·instructions·, and do them; and that you not follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to play the prostitute;
40 that you may remember and do all my mitzvot ·instructions·, and be holy to your God.
41 I am Adonai your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], to be your God: I am Adonai your God.”
