Numbers 15:25-38

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 dwelling amongst 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 amongst the children of Israel, and for the stranger that abides amongst them, whoever 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 nothing 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 you° 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 you shall tell them; and let them make for themselves fringes upon the borders of their garments throughout their generations: and you° shall put upon the fringes of the borders a lace of blue.
