[23:26] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [23:27] "However on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement: it shall be a holy convocation to you, and you shall afflict yourselves; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh. [23:28] You shall do no manner of work in that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Yahweh your God. [23:29] For whoever it is who shall not deny himself in that same day; shall be cut off from his people. [23:30] Whoever it is who does any manner of work in that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people. [23:31] You shall do no manner of work: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. [23:32] It shall be a Sabbath of solemn rest for you, and you shall deny yourselves. In the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall keep your Sabbath."
[23:33] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [23:34] "Speak to the children of Israel, and say, 'On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of tents for seven days to Yahweh. [23:35] On the first day shall be a holy convocation: you shall do no regular work. [23:36] Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh. On the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh. It is a solemn assembly; you shall do no regular work.
[23:37] "'These are the appointed feasts of Yahweh, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh, a burnt offering, and a meal offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, each on its own day; [23:38] besides the Sabbaths of Yahweh, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your freewill offerings, which you give to Yahweh.
[23:39] "'So on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruits of the land, you shall keep the feast of Yahweh seven days: on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest. [23:40] You shall take on the first day the fruit of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God seven days. [23:41] You shall keep it a feast to Yahweh seven days in the year: it is a statute forever throughout your generations; you shall keep it in the seventh month. [23:42] You shall dwell in booths seven days. All who are native-born in Israel shall dwell in booths, [23:43] that your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.'"
[23:44] Moses declared to the children of Israel the appointed feasts of Yahweh.
[24:1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [24:2] "Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually. [24:3] Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, shall Aaron keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations. [24:4] He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before Yahweh continually.
[24:5] "You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one cake. [24:6] You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before Yahweh. [24:7] You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Yahweh. [24:8] Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before Yahweh continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel an everlasting covenant. [24:9] It shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire by a perpetual statute."
[24:10] The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp. [24:11] The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. [24:12] They put him in custody, until the will of Yahweh should be declared to them.
[24:13] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [24:14] "Bring out of the camp him who cursed; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him. [24:15] You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin. [24:16] He who blasphemes the name of Yahweh, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: the foreigner as well as the native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.
[24:17] "'He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death. [24:18] He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life. [24:19] If anyone injures his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him: [24:20] fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he has injured someone, so shall it be done to him. [24:21] He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death. [24:22] You shall have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born: for I am Yahweh your God.'"
