Numbers 15:19-41

¹⁹then it shall come to pass, when ye shall eat of the bread of the land, ye shall separate a wave-offering, a special offering to the Lord, the first-fruits of your dough.

²⁰Ye shall offer your bread a heave-offering: as a heave-offering from the threshing-floor, so shall ye separate it,

²¹even the first-fruits of your dough, and ye shall give the Lord a heave-offering throughout your generations.

²²But whensoever ye shall transgress, and not perform all these commands, which the Lord spoke to Moses;

²³as the Lord appointed you by the hand of Moses, from the day which the Lord appointed you and forward throughout your generations,

²⁴then it shall come to pass, if a trespass be committed unwillingly, unknown to the congregation, then shall all the congregation offer a calf of the herd without blemish for a whole-burnt-offering of sweet savour to the Lord, and its meat-offering and its drink-offering according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.

²⁵And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the trespass shall be forgiven them, because it is involuntary; and they have brought their gift, a burnt-offering to the Lord for their trespass before the Lord, even for their involuntary sins.

²⁶And it shall be forgiven as respects all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that is abiding among you, because it is involuntary to all the people.

²⁷And if one soul sin unwillingly, he shall bring one she-goat of a year old for a sin-offering.

²⁸And the priest shall make atonement for the soul that committed the trespass unwillingly, and that sinned unwillingly before the Lord, to make atonement for him.

²⁹There shall be one law for the native among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that abides among them, whosoever shall commit a trespass unwillingly.

³⁰And whatever soul either of the natives or of the strangers shall do any thing with a presumptuous hand, he will provoke God; that soul shall be cut off from his people,

³¹for he has set at nought the word of the Lord and broken his commands: that soul shall be utterly destroyed, his sin is upon him.

³²And the children of Israel were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath-day.

³³And they who found him gathering sticks on the sabbath-day brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel.

³⁴And they placed him in custody, for they did not determine what they should do to him.

³⁵And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Let the man be by all means put to death: do ye all the congregation, stone him with stones.

³⁶And all the congregation brought him forth out of the camp; and all the congregation stoned him with stones outside the camp, as the Lord commanded Moses.

³⁷And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

³⁸Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt tell them; and let them make for themselves fringes upon the borders of their garments throughout their generations: and ye shall put upon the fringes of the borders a lace of blue.

³⁹And it shall be on your fringes, and ye shall look on them, and ye shall remember all the commands of the Lord, and do them: and ye shall not turn back after your imaginations, and after the sight of your eyes in the things after which ye go a whoring;

⁴⁰that ye may remember and perform all my commands, and ye shall be holy unto your God.

⁴¹I am the Lord your God that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord your God.
