Numbers 15:23-41

²³All that the Lord hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the Lord commanded the same and thenceforward, among your generations:

²⁴Then shall it be, if, through inadvertence of the congregation, it was committed by ignorance, that all the congregation shall prepare one young bullock for a burnt-offering, for a sweet savor unto the Lord, with his meat-offering, and his drink-offering, according to the prescribed manner, and one he-goat for a sin-offering.

²⁵And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven unto them; for it is a sin of ignorance; and they have brought their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord, and their sin-offering before the Lord, for their sin of ignorance:

²⁶And it shall be forgiven unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them; for by all the people was it done in ignorance.

²⁷And if any person sin through ignorance, then shall he bring a she-goat of the first year for a sin-offering.

²⁸And the priest shall make an atonement for the person that hath erred, in his sinning through ignorance before the Lord; to make an atonement for him, that it may be forgiven unto him.

²⁹For the native born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them:—one law shall be for you, for him that acteth through ignorance.

³⁰But the person that doth aught with a high hand, be he one born in the land, or a stranger, the same dishonoreth the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from among his people.

³¹Because the word of the Lord hath he despised, and his commandment hath he broken; that person shall be cut off, his iniquity is upon him.

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

³³And they that found him gathering sticks brought him for judgment unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.

³⁴And they put him in ward; because it had not been declared what should be done to him.

³⁵And the Lord said unto Moses, The man shall be put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.

³⁶And all the congregation brought him forth to without the camp, and they stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord had commanded Moses.

³⁷And the Lord said unto Moses, as followeth,

³⁸Speak unto the children of Israel, and say to them, that they shall make themselves fringes on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they shall put upon the fringe of the corner a thread of blue:

³⁹And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the Lord, and do them; and that ye seek not after the inclination of your own heart and the delight of your eyes, in pursuit of which ye have been led astray.

⁴⁰In order that ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.

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