THE THIRD BOOK OF MOSES CALLED
Leviticus
Part 1 (Chapters 1-14)
1:1: And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake
unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
1:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say
unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD,
ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd,
and of the flock.
1:3: If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of
the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer
it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation before the LORD.
1:4: And he shall put his hand upon the head
of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make
atonement for him.
1:5: And he shall kill the bullock before the
LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and
sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door
of the tabernacle of the congregation.
1:6: And he shall flay the burnt offering, and
cut it into his pieces.
1:7: And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put
fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
1:8: And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay
the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that
is on the fire which is upon the altar:
1:9: But his inwards and his legs shall he wash
in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, to be a
burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto
the LORD.
1:10: And if his offering be of the flocks, namely,
of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall
bring it a male without blemish.
1:11: And he shall kill it on the side of the
altar northward before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons,
shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar.
1:12: And he shall cut it into his pieces, with
his head and his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on
the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
1:13: But he shall wash the inwards and the legs
with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon
the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire,
of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
1:14: And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering
to the LORD be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves,
or of young pigeons.
1:15: And the priest shall bring it unto the
altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the
blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:
1:16: And he shall pluck away his crop with his
feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the
place of the ashes:
1:17: And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof,
but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it
upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt
sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the
LORD.
2:1: And when any will offer a meat offering
unto the LORD, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall
pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
2:2: And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the
priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof,
and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and
the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, to be
an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD:
2:3: And the remnant of the meat offering shall
be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings
of the LORD made by fire.
2:4: And if thou bring an oblation of a meat
offering baken in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine
flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
2:5: And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken
in a pan, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
2:6: Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil
thereon: it is a meat offering.
2:7: And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken
in the fryingpan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
2:8: And thou shalt bring the meat offering that
is made of these things unto the LORD: and when it is presented
unto the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar.
2:9: And the priest shall take from the meat
offering a memorial thereof, and shall burn it upon the altar:
it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
2:10: And that which is left of the meat offering
shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the
offerings of the LORD made by fire.
2:11: No meat offering, which ye shall bring
unto the LORD, shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no
leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the LORD made by fire.
2:12: As for the oblation of the firstfruits,
ye shall offer them unto the LORD: but they shall not be burnt
on the altar for a sweet savour.
2:13: And every oblation of thy meat offering
shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt
of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering:
with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
2:14: And if thou offer a meat offering of thy
firstfruits unto the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat offering
of thy firstfruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, even
corn beaten out of full ears.
2:15: And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay
frankincense thereon: it is a meat offering.
2:16: And the priest shall burn the memorial
of it, part of the beaten corn thereof, and part of the oil thereof,
with all the frankincense thereof: it is an offering made by fire
unto the LORD.
3:1: And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace
offering, if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a male or
female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD.
3:2: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation: and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle
the blood upon the altar round about.
3:3: And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the
peace offering an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat
that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
3:4: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is
on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away.
3:5: And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar
upon the burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood that is on the
fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the
LORD.
3:6: And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace
offering unto the LORD be of the flock; male or female, he shall
offer it without blemish.
3:7: If he offer a lamb for his offering, then
shall he offer it before the LORD.
3:8: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation:
and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof round about
upon the altar.
3:9: And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the
peace offering an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat
thereof, and the whole rump, it shall he take off hard by the
backbone; and the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat
that is upon the inwards,
3:10: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is
upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away.
3:11: And the priest shall burn it upon the altar:
it is the food of the offering made by fire unto the LORD.
3:12: And if his offering be a goat, then he
shall offer it before the LORD.
3:13: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of it, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation:
and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the
altar round about.
3:14: And he shall offer thereof his offering,
even an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth
the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
3:15: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is
upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away.
3:16: And the priest shall burn them upon the
altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet
savour: all the fat is the LORD's.
3:17: It shall be a perpetual statute for your
generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither
fat nor blood.
4:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
4:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments
of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and
shall do against any of them:
4:3: If the priest that is anointed do sin according
to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which
he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD
for a sin offering.
4:4: And he shall bring the bullock unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD; and
shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head, and kill the bullock
before the LORD.
4:5: And the priest that is anointed shall take
of the bullock's blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the
congregation:
4:6: And the priest shall dip his finger in the
blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD,
before the vail of the sanctuary.
4:7: And the priest shall put some of the blood
upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD,
which is in the tabernacle of the congregation: and shall pour
all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the
burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation.
4:8: And he shall take off from it all the fat
of the bullock for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the
inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
4:9: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is
upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver,
with the kidneys, it shall he take away,
4:10: As it was taken off from the bullock of
the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them
upon the altar of the burnt offering.
4:11: And the skin of the bullock, and all his
flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and
his dung,
4:12: Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth
without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured
out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured
out shall he be burnt.
4:13: And if the whole congregation of Israel
sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the
assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments
of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and are
guilty;
4:14: When the sin, which they have sinned against
it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock
for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.
4:15: And the elders of the congregation shall
lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD:
and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD.
4:16: And the priest that is anointed shall bring
of the bullock's blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:
4:17: And the priest shall dip his finger in
some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD,
even before the vail.
4:18: And he shall put some of the blood upon
the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the
tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood
at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4:19: And he shall take all his fat from him,
and burn it upon the altar.
4:20: And he shall do with the bullock as he
did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this:
and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall
be forgiven them.
4:21: And he shall carry forth the bullock without
the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a
sin offering for the congregation.
4:22: When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat
through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD
his God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;
4:23: Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned,
come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the
goats, a male without blemish:
4:24: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt
offering before the LORD: it is a sin offering.
4:25: And the priest shall take of the blood
of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns
of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at
the bottom of the altar of burnt offering.
4:26: And he shall burn all his fat upon the
altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the
priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin,
and it shall be forgiven him.
4:27: And if any one of the common people sin
through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the
commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to
be done, and be guilty;
4:28: Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come
to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the
goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
4:29: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of
the burnt offering.
4:30: And the priest shall take of the blood
thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar
of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at
the bottom of the altar.
4:31: And he shall take away all the fat thereof,
as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings;
and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour
unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an atonement for him,
and it shall be forgiven him.
4:32: And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering,
he shall bring it a female without blemish.
4:33: And he shall lay his hand upon the head
of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin offering in the place
where they kill the burnt offering.
4:34: And the priest shall take of the blood
of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns
of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood
thereof at the bottom of the altar:
4:35: And he shall take away all the fat thereof,
as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the
peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar,
according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD: and the
priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed,
and it shall be forgiven him.
5:1: And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of
swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath seen or known of it;
if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
5:2: Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, whether
it be a carcase of an unclean beast, or a carcase of unclean cattle,
or the carcase of unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden
from him; he also shall be unclean, and guilty.
5:3: Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever
uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be
hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty.
5:4: Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with his
lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever it be that a man shall
pronounce with an oath, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth
of it, then he shall be guilty in one of these.
5:5: And it shall be, when he shall be guilty
in one of these things, that he shall confess that he hath sinned
in that thing:
5:6: And he shall bring his trespass offering
unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a female from
the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats, for a sin offering; and
the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his sin.
5:7: And if he be not able to bring a lamb, then
he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath committed, two
turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD; one for a sin
offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
5:8: And he shall bring them unto the priest,
who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and
wring off his head from his neck, but shall not divide it asunder:
5:9: And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the
sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood
shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering.
5:10: And he shall offer the second for a burnt
offering, according to the manner: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him for his sin which he hath sinned, and it shall
be forgiven him.
5:11: But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves,
or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his
offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering;
he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense
thereon: for it is a sin offering.
5:12: Then shall he bring it to the priest, and
the priest shall take his handful of it, even a memorial thereof,
and burn it on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire
unto the LORD: it is a sin offering.
5:13: And the priest shall make an atonement
for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these,
and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest's,
as a meat offering.
5:14: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
5:15: If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through
ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring
for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the
flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel
of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:
5:16: And he shall make amends for the harm that
he hath done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto,
and give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement
for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and it shall be
forgiven him.
5:17: And if a soul sin, and commit any of these
things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the
LORD; though he wist it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear
his iniquity.
5:18: And he shall bring a ram without blemish
out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering,
unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him
concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and
it shall be forgiven him.
5:19: It is a trespass offering: he hath certainly
trespassed against the LORD.
6:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:2: If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against
the LORD, and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered
him to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence,
or hath deceived his neighbour;
6:3: Or have found that which was lost, and lieth
concerning it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that
a man doeth, sinning therein:
6:4: Then it shall be, because he hath sinned,
and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently
away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which
was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,
6:5: Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely;
he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth
part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth,
in the day of his trespass offering.
6:6: And he shall bring his trespass offering
unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy
estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest:
6:7: And the priest shall make an atonement for
him before the LORD: and it shall be forgiven him for any thing
of all that he hath done in trespassing therein.
6:8: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:9: Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This
is the law of the burnt offering: It is the burnt offering, because
of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and
the fire of the altar shall be burning in it.
6:10: And the priest shall put on his linen garment,
and his linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh, and take up
the ashes which the fire hath consumed with the burnt offering
on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.
6:11: And he shall put off his garments, and
put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp
unto a clean place.
6:12: And the fire upon the altar shall be burning
in it; it shall not be put out: and the priest shall burn wood
on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order upon
it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace offerings.
6:13: The fire shall ever be burning upon the
altar; it shall never go out.
6:14: And this is the law of the meat offering:
the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar.
6:15: And he shall take of it his handful, of
the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil thereof, and all
the frankincense which is upon the meat offering, and shall burn
it upon the altar for a sweet savour, even the memorial of it,
unto the LORD.
6:16: And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and
his sons eat: with unleavened bread shall it be eaten in the holy
place; in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they
shall eat it.
6:17: It shall not be baken with leaven. I have
given it unto them for their portion of my offerings made by fire;
it is most holy, as is the sin offering, and as the trespass offering.
6:18: All the males among the children of Aaron
shall eat of it. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations
concerning the offerings of the LORD made by fire: every one that
toucheth them shall be holy.
6:19: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:20: This is the offering of Aaron and of his
sons, which they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when he
is anointed; the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat
offering perpetual, half of it in the morning, and half thereof
at night.
6:21: In a pan it shall be made with oil; and
when it is baken, thou shalt bring it in: and the baken pieces
of the meat offering shalt thou offer for a sweet savour unto
the LORD.
6:22: And the priest of his sons that is anointed
in his stead shall offer it: it is a statute for ever unto the
LORD, it shall be wholly burnt.
6:23: For every meat offering for the priest
shall be wholly burnt: it shall not be eaten.
6:24: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:25: Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying,
This is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt
offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the
LORD: it is most holy.
6:26: The priest that offereth it for sin shall
eat it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the
tabernacle of the congregation.
6:27: Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof
shall be holy: and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof
upon any garment, thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled
in the holy place.
6:28: But the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden
shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brasen pot, it shall
be both scoured, and rinsed in water.
6:29: All the males among the priests shall eat
thereof: it is most holy.
6:30: And no sin offering, whereof any of the
blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile
withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in
the fire.
7:1: Likewise this is the law of the trespass
offering: it is most holy.
7:2: In the place where they kill the burnt offering
shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall
he sprinkle round about upon the altar.
7:3: And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof;
the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
7:4: And the two kidneys, and the fat that is
on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul that is above the
liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away:
7:5: And the priest shall burn them upon the
altar for an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a trespass
offering.
7:6: Every male among the priests shall eat thereof:
it shall be eaten in the holy place: it is most holy.
7:7: As the sin offering is, so is the trespass
offering: there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement
therewith shall have it.
7:8: And the priest that offereth any man's burnt
offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the
burnt offering which he hath offered.
7:9: And all the meat offering that is baken
in the oven, and all that is dressed in the fryingpan, and in
the pan, shall be the priest's that offereth it.
7:10: And every meat offering, mingled with oil,
and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.
7:11: And this is the law of the sacrifice of
peace offerings, which he shall offer unto the LORD.
7:12: If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then
he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes
mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and
cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.
7:13: Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his
offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of
his peace offerings.
7:14: And of it he shall offer one out of the
whole oblation for an heave offering unto the LORD, and it shall
be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings.
7:15: And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace
offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it
is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
7:16: But if the sacrifice of his offering be
a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day
that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder
of it shall be eaten:
7:17: But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice
on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
7:18: And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice
of his peace offerings be eaten at all on the third day, it shall
not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth
it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it
shall bear his iniquity.
7:19: And the flesh that toucheth any unclean
thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as
for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof.
7:20: But the soul that eateth of the flesh of
the sacrifice of peace offerings, that pertain unto the LORD,
having his uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off
from his people.
7:21: Moreover the soul that shall touch any
unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast,
or any abominable unclean thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice
of peace offerings, which pertain unto the LORD, even that soul
shall be cut off from his people.
7:22: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7:23: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
7:24: And the fat of the beast that dieth of
itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be
used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it.
7:25: For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast,
of which men offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, even
the soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.
7:26: Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood,
whether it be of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.
7:27: Whatsoever soul it be that eateth any manner
of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
7:28: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7:29: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the
LORD shall bring his oblation unto the LORD of the sacrifice of
his peace offerings.
7:30: His own hands shall bring the offerings
of the LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he
bring, that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before
the LORD.
7:31: And the priest shall burn the fat upon
the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
7:32: And the right shoulder shall ye give unto
the priest for an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace
offerings.
7:33: He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth
the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the
right shoulder for his part.
7:34: For the wave breast and the heave shoulder
have I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices
of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest
and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children
of Israel.
7:35: This is the portion of the anointing of
Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings
of the LORD made by fire, in the day when he presented them to
minister unto the LORD in the priest's office;
7:36: Which the LORD commanded to be given them
of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, by
a statute for ever throughout their generations.
7:37: This is the law of the burnt offering,
of the meat offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass
offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the
peace offerings;
7:38: Which the LORD commanded Moses in mount
Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to
offer their oblations unto the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
8:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
8:2: Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the
garments, and the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering,
and two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread;
8:3: And gather thou all the congregation together
unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8:4: And Moses did as the LORD commanded him;
and the assembly was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation.
8:5: And Moses said unto the congregation, This
is the thing which the LORD commanded to be done.
8:6: And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and
washed them with water.
8:7: And he put upon him the coat, and girded
him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the
ephod upon him, and he girded him with the curious girdle of the
ephod, and bound it unto him therewith.
8:8: And he put the breastplate upon him: also
he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
8:9: And he put the mitre upon his head; also
upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the golden
plate, the holy crown; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:10: And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed
the tabernacle and all that was therein, and sanctified them.
8:11: And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar
seven times, and anointed the altar and all his vessels, both
the laver and his foot, to sanctify them.
8:12: And he poured of the anointing oil upon
Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.
8:13: And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put
coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets
upon them; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:14: And he brought the bullock for the sin
offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head
of the bullock for the sin offering.
8:15: And he slew it; and Moses took the blood,
and put it upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger,
and purified the altar, and poured the blood at the bottom of
the altar, and sanctified it, to make reconciliation upon it.
8:16: And he took all the fat that was upon the
inwards, and caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their
fat, and Moses burned it upon the altar.
8:17: But the bullock, and his hide, his flesh,
and his dung, he burnt with fire without the camp; as the LORD
commanded Moses.
8:18: And he brought the ram for the burnt offering:
and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
8:19: And he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the
blood upon the altar round about.
8:20: And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moses
burnt the head, and the pieces, and the fat.
8:21: And he washed the inwards and the legs
in water; and Moses burnt the whole ram upon the altar: it was
a burnt sacrifice for a sweet savour, and an offering made by
fire unto the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:22: And he brought the other ram, the ram of
consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the
head of the ram.
8:23: And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood
of it, and put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon
the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right
foot.
8:24: And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses
put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the
thumbs of their right hands, and upon the great toes of their
right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round
about.
8:25: And he took the fat, and the rump, and
all the fat that was upon the inwards, and the caul above the
liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder:
8:26: And out of the basket of unleavened bread,
that was before the LORD, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake
of oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and upon
the right shoulder:
8:27: And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and
upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before
the LORD.
8:28: And Moses took them from off their hands,
and burnt them on the altar upon the burnt offering: they were
consecrations for a sweet savour: it is an offering made by fire
unto the LORD.
8:29: And Moses took the breast, and waved it
for a wave offering before the LORD: for of the ram of consecration
it was Moses' part; as the LORD commanded Moses.
8:30: And Moses took of the anointing oil, and
of the blood which was upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron,
and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments
with him; and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons,
and his sons' garments with him.
8:31: And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons,
Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
and there eat it with the bread that is in the basket of consecrations,
as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
8:32: And that which remaineth of the flesh and
of the bread shall ye burn with fire.
8:33: And ye shall not go out of the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation in seven days, until the days
of your consecration be at an end: for seven days shall he consecrate
you.
8:34: As he hath done this day, so the LORD hath
commanded to do, to make an atonement for you.
8:35: Therefore shall ye abide at the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation day and night seven days, and
keep the charge of the LORD, that ye die not: for so I am commanded.
8:36: So Aaron and his sons did all things which
the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
9:1: And it came to pass on the eighth day, that
Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
9:2: And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young
calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without
blemish, and offer them before the LORD.
9:3: And unto the children of Israel thou shalt
speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering;
and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish,
for a burnt offering;
9:4: Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings,
to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with
oil: for to day the LORD will appear unto you.
9:5: And they brought that which Moses commanded
before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation
drew near and stood before the LORD.
9:6: And Moses said, This is the thing which
the LORD commanded that ye should do: and the glory of the LORD
shall appear unto you.
9:7: And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar,
and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an
atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering
of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.
9:8: Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and
slew the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9:9: And the sons of Aaron brought the blood
unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon
the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom
of the altar:
9:10: But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul
above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar;
as the LORD commanded Moses.
9:11: And the flesh and the hide he burnt with
fire without the camp.
9:12: And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron's
sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about
upon the altar.
9:13: And they presented the burnt offering unto
him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt them
upon the altar.
9:14: And he did wash the inwards and the legs,
and burnt them upon the burnt offering on the altar.
9:15: And he brought the people's offering, and
took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and
slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.
9:16: And he brought the burnt offering, and
offered it according to the manner.
9:17: And he brought the meat offering, and took
an handful thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt
sacrifice of the morning.
9:18: He slew also the bullock and the ram for
a sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people: and
Aaron's sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled
upon the altar round about,
9:19: And the fat of the bullock and of the ram,
the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys,
and the caul above the liver:
9:20: And they put the fat upon the breasts,
and he burnt the fat upon the altar:
9:21: And the breasts and the right shoulder
Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.
9:22: And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the
people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin
offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
9:23: And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle
of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and
the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.
9:24: And there came a fire out from before the
LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat:
which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their
faces.
10:1: And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron,
took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put
incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which
he commanded them not.
10:2: And there went out fire from the LORD,
and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
10:3: Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it
that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that
come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified.
And Aaron held his peace.
10:4: And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan,
the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come
near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the
camp.
10:5: So they went near, and carried them in
their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said.
SIZE=2>10:6: And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar
and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend
your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people:
but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning
which the LORD hath kindled.
10:7: And ye shall not go out from the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing
oil of the LORD is upon you. And they did according to the word
of Moses.
10:8: And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying,
10:9: Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou,
nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the
congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout
your generations:
10:10: And that ye may put difference between
holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;
10:11: And that ye may teach the children of
Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by
the hand of Moses.
10:12: And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar
and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering
that remaineth of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and
eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy:
10:13: And ye shall eat it in the holy place,
because it is thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of
the LORD made by fire: for so I am commanded.
10:14: And the wave breast and heave shoulder
shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters
with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given
out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel.
10:15: The heave shoulder and the wave breast
shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to
wave it for a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine,
and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath
commanded.
10:16: And Moses diligently sought the goat of
the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry
with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive,
saying,
10:17: Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering
in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given
it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement
for them before the LORD?
10:18: Behold, the blood of it was not brought
in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the
holy place, as I commanded.
10:19: And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this
day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering
before the LORD; and such things have befallen me: and if I had
eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in
the sight of the LORD?
10:20: And when Moses heard that, he was content.
11:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron,
saying unto them,
11:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that
are on the earth.
11:3: Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted,
and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
11:4: Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of
them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the
camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof;
he is unclean unto you.
11:5: And the coney, because he cheweth the cud,
but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
11:6: And the hare, because he cheweth the cud,
but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
11:7: And the swine, though he divide the hoof,
and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean
to you.
11:8: Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their
carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
11:9: These shall ye eat of all that are in the
waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the
seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
11:10: And all that have not fins and scales
in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters,
and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be
an abomination unto you:
11:11: They shall be even an abomination unto
you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their
carcases in abomination.
11:12: Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in
the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
11:13: And these are they which ye shall have
in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they
are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
11:14: And the vulture, and the kite after his
kind;
11:15: Every raven after his kind;
11:16: And the owl, and the night hawk, and the
cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
11:17: And the little owl, and the cormorant,
and the great owl,
11:18: And the swan, and the pelican, and the
gier eagle,
11:19: And the stork, the heron after her kind,
and the lapwing, and the bat.
11:20: All fowls that creep, going upon all four,
shall be an abomination unto you.
11:21: Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping
thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet,
to leap withal upon the earth;
11:22: Even these of them ye may eat; the locust
after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle
after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
11:23: But all other flying creeping things,
which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
11:24: And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever
toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
11:25: And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase
of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
11:26: The carcases of every beast which divideth
the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean
unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
11:27: And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among
all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto
you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
11:28: And he that beareth the carcase of them
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are
unclean unto you.
11:29: These also shall be unclean unto you among
the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and
the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
11:30: And the ferret, and the chameleon, and
the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
11:31: These are unclean to you among all that
creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be
unclean until the even.
11:32: And upon whatsoever any of them, when
they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any
vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel
it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and
it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
11:33: And every earthen vessel, whereinto any
of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye
shall break it.
11:34: Of all meat which may be eaten, that on
which such water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may
be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
11:35: And every thing whereupon any part of
their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or
ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean,
and shall be unclean unto you.
11:36: Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein
there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth
their carcase shall be unclean.
11:37: And if any part of their carcase fall
upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.
11:38: But if any water be put upon the seed,
and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean
unto you.
11:39: And if any beast, of which ye may eat,
die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until
the even.
11:40: And he that eateth of the carcase of it
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also
that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be
unclean until the even.
11:41: And every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
11:42: Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever
goeth upon all four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping
things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they
are an abomination.
11:43: Ye shall not make yourselves abominable
with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves
unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
11:44: For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore
sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither
shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
11:45: For I am the LORD that bringeth you up
out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be
holy, for I am holy.
11:46: This is the law of the beasts, and of
the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters,
and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
11:47: To make a difference between the unclean
and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the
beast that may not be eaten.
12:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
12:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she
shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation
for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
12:3: And in the eighth day the flesh of his
foreskin shall be circumcised.
12:4: And she shall then continue in the blood
of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed
thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying
be fulfilled.
12:5: But if she bear a maid child, then she
shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall
continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
12:6: And when the days of her purifying are
fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb
of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or
a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, unto the priest:
12:7: Who shall offer it before the LORD, and
make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the
issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a
male or a female.
12:8: And if she be not able to bring a lamb,
then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one
for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and
the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
13:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron,
saying,
13:2: When a man shall have in the skin of his
flesh a rising, a scab, or a bright spot, and it be in the skin
of his flesh like the plague of leprosy; then he shall be brought
unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
13:3: And the priest shall look on the plague
in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned
white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his
flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on
him, and pronounce him unclean.
13:4: If the bright spot be white in the skin
of his flesh, and in sight be not deeper than the skin, and the
hair thereof be not turned white; then the priest shall shut up
him that hath the plague seven days:
13:5: And the priest shall look on him the seventh
day: and, behold, if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and
the plague spread not in the skin; then the priest shall shut
him up seven days more:
13:6: And the priest shall look on him again
the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague be somewhat dark,
and the plague spread not in the skin, the priest shall pronounce
him clean: it is but a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and
be clean.
13:7: But if the scab spread much abroad in the
skin, after that he hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing,
he shall be seen of the priest again:
13:8: And if the priest see that, behold, the
scab spreadeth in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is a leprosy.
13:9: When the plague of leprosy is in a man,
then he shall be brought unto the priest;
13:10: And the priest shall see him: and, behold,
if the rising be white in the skin, and it have turned the hair
white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising;
13:11: It is an old leprosy in the skin of his
flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not
shut him up: for he is unclean.
13:12: And if a leprosy break out abroad in the
skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of him that hath the
plague from his head even to his foot, wheresoever the priest
looketh;
13:13: Then the priest shall consider: and, behold,
if the leprosy have covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce
him clean that hath the plague: it is all turned white: he is
clean.
13:14: But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he
shall be unclean.
13:15: And the priest shall see the raw flesh,
and pronounce him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean:
it is a leprosy.
13:16: Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be
changed unto white, he shall come unto the priest;
13:17: And the priest shall see him: and, behold,
if the plague be turned into white; then the priest shall pronounce
him clean that hath the plague: he is clean.
13:18: The flesh also, in which, even in the
skin thereof, was a boil, and is healed,
13:19: And in the place of the boil there be
a white rising, or a bright spot, white, and somewhat reddish,
and it be shewed to the priest;
13:20: And if, when the priest seeth it, behold,
it be in sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof be turned
white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague
of leprosy broken out of the boil.
13:21: But if the priest look on it, and, behold,
there be no white hairs therein, and if it be not lower than the
skin, but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut him up
seven days:
13:22: And if it spread much abroad in the skin,
then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a plague.
13:23: But if the bright spot stay in his place,
and spread not, it is a burning boil; and the priest shall pronounce
him clean.
13:24: Or if there be any flesh, in the skin
whereof there is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burneth
have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;
13:25: Then the priest shall look upon it: and,
behold, if the hair in the bright spot be turned white, and it
be in sight deeper than the skin; it is a leprosy broken out of
the burning: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it is the plague of leprosy.
13:26: But if the priest look on it, and, behold,
there be no white hair in the bright spot, and it be no lower
than the other skin, but be somewhat dark; then the priest shall
shut him up seven days:
13:27: And the priest shall look upon him the
seventh day: and if it be spread much abroad in the skin, then
the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is the plague of leprosy.
13:28: And if the bright spot stay in his place,
and spread not in the skin, but it be somewhat dark; it is a rising
of the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean: for
it is an inflammation of the burning.
13:29: If a man or woman have a plague upon the
head or the beard;
13:30: Then the priest shall see the plague:
and, behold, if it be in sight deeper than the skin; and there
be in it a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it is a dry scall, even a leprosy upon the head or beard.
13:31: And if the priest look on the plague of
the scall, and, behold, it be not in sight deeper than the skin,
and that there is no black hair in it; then the priest shall shut
up him that hath the plague of the scall seven days:
13:32: And in the seventh day the priest shall
look on the plague: and, behold, if the scall spread not, and
there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall be not in sight deeper
than the skin;
13:33: He shall be shaven, but the scall shall
he not shave; and the priest shall shut up him that hath the scall
seven days more:
13:34: And in the seventh day the priest shall
look on the scall: and, behold, if the scall be not spread in
the skin, nor be in sight deeper than the skin; then the priest
shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and
be clean.
13:35: But if the scall spread much in the skin
after his cleansing;
13:36: Then the priest shall look on him: and,
behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the priest shall not
seek for yellow hair; he is unclean.
13:37: But if the scall be in his sight at a
stay, and that there is black hair grown up therein; the scall
is healed, he is clean: and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
13:38: If a man also or a woman have in the skin
of their flesh bright spots, even white bright spots;
13:39: Then the priest shall look: and, behold,
if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be darkish white;
it is a freckled spot that groweth in the skin; he is clean.
13:40: And the man whose hair is fallen off his
head, he is bald; yet is he clean.
13:41: And he that hath his hair fallen off from
the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald: yet
is he clean.
13:42: And if there be in the bald head, or bald
forehead, a white reddish sore; it is a leprosy sprung up in his
bald head, or his bald forehead.
13:43: Then the priest shall look upon it: and,
behold, if the rising of the sore be white reddish in his bald
head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appeareth in the
skin of the flesh;
13:44: He is a leprous man, he is unclean: the
priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his plague is in his
head.
13:45: And the leper in whom the plague is, his
clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and he shall put a covering
upon his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
13:46: All the days wherein the plague shall
be in him he shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone;
without the camp shall his habitation be.
13:47: The garment also that the plague of leprosy
is in, whether it be a woollen garment, or a linen garment;
13:48: Whether it be in the warp, or woof; of
linen, or of woollen; whether in a skin, or in any thing made
of skin;
13:49: And if the plague be greenish or reddish
in the garment, or in the skin, either in the warp, or in the
woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a plague of leprosy, and
shall be shewed unto the priest:
13:50: And the priest shall look upon the plague,
and shut up it that hath the plague seven days:
13:51: And he shall look on the plague on the
seventh day: if the plague be spread in the garment, either in
the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any work that is
made of skin; the plague is a fretting leprosy; it is unclean.
13:52: He shall therefore burn that garment,
whether warp or woof, in woollen or in linen, or any thing of
skin, wherein the plague is: for it is a fretting leprosy; it
shall be burnt in the fire.
13:53: And if the priest shall look, and, behold,
the plague be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or
in the woof, or in any thing of skin;
13:54: Then the priest shall command that they
wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut it up
seven days more:
13:55: And the priest shall look on the plague,
after that it is washed: and, behold, if the plague have not changed
his colour, and the plague be not spread; it is unclean; thou
shalt burn it in the fire; it is fret inward, whether it be bare
within or without.
13:56: And if the priest look, and, behold, the
plague be somewhat dark after the washing of it; then he shall
rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the
warp, or out of the woof:
13:57: And if it appear still in the garment,
either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it
is a spreading plague: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague
is with fire.
13:58: And the garment, either warp, or woof,
or whatsoever thing of skin it be, which thou shalt wash, if the
plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed the second
time, and shall be clean.
13:59: This is the law of the plague of leprosy
in a garment of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof,
or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce
it unclean.
14:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
14:2: This shall be the law of the leper in the
day of his cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest:
14:3: And the priest shall go forth out of the
camp; and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of
leprosy be healed in the leper;
14:4: Then shall the priest command to take for
him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar
wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
14:5: And the priest shall command that one of
the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
14:6: As for the living bird, he shall take it,
and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall
dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was
killed over the running water:
14:7: And he shall sprinkle upon him that is
to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce
him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
14:8: And he that is to be cleansed shall wash
his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water,
that he may be clean: and after that he shall come into the camp,
and shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.
14:9: But it shall be on the seventh day, that
he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his
eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash
his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall
be clean.
14:10: And on the eighth day he shall take two
he lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without
blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering,
mingled with oil, and one log of oil.
14:11: And the priest that maketh him clean shall
present the man that is to be made clean, and those things, before
the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
14:12: And the priest shall take one he lamb,
and offer him for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and
wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:
14:13: And he shall slay the lamb in the place
where he shall kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in
the holy place: for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is
the trespass offering: it is most holy:
14:14: And the priest shall take some of the
blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon
the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon
the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right
foot:
14:15: And the priest shall take some of the
log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand:
14:16: And the priest shall dip his right finger
in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the
oil with his finger seven times before the LORD:
14:17: And of the rest of the oil that is in
his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of
him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand,
and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the
trespass offering:
14:18: And the remnant of the oil that is in
the priest's hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to
be cleansed: and the priest shall make an atonement for him before
the LORD.
14:19: And the priest shall offer the sin offering,
and make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his
uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering:
14:20: And the priest shall offer the burnt offering
and the meat offering upon the altar: and the priest shall make
an atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
14:21: And if he be poor, and cannot get so much;
then he shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved,
to make an atonement for him, and one tenth deal of fine flour
mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log of oil;
14:22: And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons,
such as he is able to get; and the one shall be a sin offering,
and the other a burnt offering.
14:23: And he shall bring them on the eighth
day for his cleansing unto the priest, unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, before the LORD.
14:24: And the priest shall take the lamb of
the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall
wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:
14:25: And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass
offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass
offering, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that
is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon
the great toe of his right foot:
14:26: And the priest shall pour of the oil into
the palm of his own left hand:
14:27: And the priest shall sprinkle with his
right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times
before the LORD:
14:28: And the priest shall put of the oil that
is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to
be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the
great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the
trespass offering:
14:29: And the rest of the oil that is in the
priest's hand he shall put upon the head of him that is to be
cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the LORD.
14:30: And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves,
or of the young pigeons, such as he can get;
14:31: Even such as he is able to get, the one
for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the
meat offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for him
that is to be cleansed before the LORD.
14:32: This is the law of him in whom is the
plague of leprosy, whose hand is not able to get that which pertaineth
to his cleansing.
14:33: And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, saying,
14:34: When ye be come into the land of Canaan,
which I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of
leprosy in a house of the land of your possession;
14:35: And he that owneth the house shall come
and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were
a plague in the house:
14:36: Then the priest shall command that they
empty the house, before the priest go into it to see the plague,
that all that is in the house be not made unclean: and afterward
the priest shall go in to see the house:
14:37: And he shall look on the plague, and,
behold, if the plague be in the walls of the house with hollow
strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight are lower than the
wall;
14:38: Then the priest shall go out of the house
to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days:
14:39: And the priest shall come again the seventh
day, and shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the
walls of the house;
14:40: Then the priest shall command that they
take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast
them into an unclean place without the city:
14:41: And he shall cause the house to be scraped
within round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they
scrape off without the city into an unclean place:
14:42: And they shall take other stones, and
put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other
morter, and shall plaister the house.
14:43: And if the plague come again, and break
out in the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and
after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;
14:44: Then the priest shall come and look, and,
behold, if the plague be spread in the house, it is a fretting
leprosy in the house: it is unclean.
14:45: And he shall break down the house, the
stones of it, and the timber thereof, and all the morter of the
house; and he shall carry them forth out of the city into an unclean
place.
14:46: Moreover he that goeth into the house
all the while that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even.
14:47: And he that lieth in the house shall wash
his clothes; and he that eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.
14:48: And if the priest shall come in, and look
upon it, and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house,
after the house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce
the house clean, because the plague is healed.
14:49: And he shall take to cleanse the house
two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
14:50: And he shall kill the one of the birds
in an earthen vessel over running water:
14:51: And he shall take the cedar wood, and
the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them
in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and
sprinkle the house seven times:
14:52: And he shall cleanse the house with the
blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living
bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the
scarlet:
14:53: But he shall let go the living bird out
of the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the
house: and it shall be clean.
14:54: This is the law for all manner of plague
of leprosy, and scall,
14:55: And for the leprosy of a garment, and
of a house,
14:56: And for a rising, and for a scab, and
for a bright spot:
14:57: To teach when it is unclean, and when
it is clean: this is the law of leprosy.
