Leviticus 19

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, ²Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, ^aYe shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy. ^3bYe shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and ^ckeep my sabbaths: I am the Lord your God. ⁴Turn ye not unto ^didols, ^enor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the Lord your God.

⁵And ^fif ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord, ye shall offer it ^gat your own will. ⁶It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire. ⁷And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is ^habominable; it shall not be accepted. ⁸Therefore every one that eateth it ⁱshall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the Lord: and ^kthat soul shall be cut off from among his people.

⁹And ^lwhen ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest. ¹⁰And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the Lord your God. ^11mYe shall not steal, ⁿneither deal falsely, neither lie one to another. ¹²And ye shall not ^oswear by my name falsely, ^pneither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord. ¹³Thou shalt not ^qdefraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: ^rthe wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning. ¹⁴Thou shalt not ^scurse the deaf, ^tnor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt ^ufear thy God: I am the Lord. ^15wYe shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour. ^16xThou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou ^ystand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the Lord. ^17zThou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: ^athou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. ^18bThou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but ^cthou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the Lord.

¹⁹Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: ^dthou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: ^eneither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee. ²⁰And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman that is a bondmaid, betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged, they shall not be put to death, because she was not free. ²¹And ^fhe shall bring his trespass offering unto the Lord, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering. ²²And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the Lord for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him. ²³And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as ^guncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of. ²⁴But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the Lord withal. ²⁵And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the Lord your God.

^26hYe shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither ⁱshall ye use enchantment, nor ^kobserve times. ^27lYe shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. ²⁸Ye shall not make ^many cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord. ²⁹ⁿDo not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness. ^30oYe shall keep my sabbaths, and ^preverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord. ^31qRegard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God. ^32rThou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and ^shonour the face of the old man, and ^tfear thy God: I am the Lord. ³³And ^uif a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him. ³⁴But ^xthe stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born amongst you, and ^ythou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God. ³⁵Ye ^zshall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in ^ameteyard, in ^bweight, or in ^cmeasure. ^36dJust balances, just weights, a just ^eephah, and a just ^fhin, shall ye have: I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt. ³⁷Therefore ^gshall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the Lord.
