Numbers 15:17-41

¹⁷And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

¹⁸Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come into the lande, to the which I bring you,

¹⁹And when ye shall eate of the bread of the land, ye shall offer an heaue offring vnto ye Lord.

²⁰Ye shall offer vp a cake of the first of your dowe for an heaue offring: as the heaue offring of the barne, so ye shall lift it vp.

²¹Of the first of your dowe ye shall giue vnto the Lord an heaue offring in your generations.

²²And if ye haue erred, and not obserued all these commandements, which the Lord hath spoken vnto Moses,

²³Euen all that the Lord hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the first day that the Lord commanded Moses, and hence forward among your generations:

²⁴And if so be that ought be committed ignorantly of the Congregation, then all ye Congregatio shall giue a bullocke for a burnt offring, for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord, with the meat offring and drinke offring thereto, according to the maner, and an hee goate for a sinne offring.

²⁵And the Priest shall make an atonement for al the Congregation of the children of Israel, and it shalbe forgiuen them: for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offring for an offring made by fire vnto the Lord, and their sinne offering before the Lord for their ignorance.

²⁶Then it shalbe forgiuen all the Congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that dwelleth among them: for all the people were in ignorance.

²⁷But if any one person sinne through ignorance, then he shall bring a shee goate of a yeere olde for a sinne offring.

²⁸And the Priest shall make an atonement for the ignorant person, when hee sinneth by ignorance before the Lord, to make reconciliation for him: and it shalbe forgiuen him.

²⁹He that is borne among the children of Israel, and the stranger that dwelleth among them, shall haue both one lawe, who so doth sinne by ignorance.

³⁰But the person that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be borne in the land, or a stranger, the same blasphemeth the Lord: therefore that person shalbe cut off from among his people,

³¹Because he hath despised the worde of the Lord, and hath broken his commandement: that person shalbe vtterly cut off: his iniquitie shalbe vpon him.

³²And while the children of Israel were in the wildernesse, they found a man that gathered stickes vpon the Sabbath day.

³³And they that found him gathering sticks, brought him vnto Moses and to Aaron, and vnto all the Congregation,

³⁴And they put him warde: for it was not declared what should be done vnto him.

³⁵Then the Lord said vnto Moses, This man shall dye the death: and let al the multitude stone him with stones without the hoste.

³⁶And all the Congregation brought him without the hoste, and stoned him with stones, and he died, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

³⁷And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

³⁸Speake vnto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes vpon the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and put vpon the fringes of the borders a ryband of blewe silke.

³⁹And ye shall haue the fringes, that when ye looke vpon them, ye may remember all the commandemets of the Lord, and do them: and that ye seeke not after your own heart, nor after your owne eyes, after the which ye go a whoring;

⁴⁰That yee may remember and doe all my commandements, and bee holy vnto your God.

⁴¹I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the lande of Egypt, to bee your God: I am the Lord your God.
