24Verse 1Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,Verse 2“Enjoin the children of Israel [God prevails], that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a menorah ·lamp· to burn continually.Verse 3Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, shall Aaron [Light-bringer] keep it in order from evening to morning before Adonai continually: it shall be a statute forever throughout all your generations.Verse 4He shall keep in order the menorah ·lamp· candles on the pure gold menorah ·lamp· before Adonai continually.Verse 5“You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: one tenth of an ephah [two omers; 4.6 q; 4.4 L] shall be in one cake.Verse 6You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before Adonai.Verse 7You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Adonai.Verse 8Every Shabath ·Intermission· day he shall set it in order before Adonai continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel [God prevails] an everlasting covenant.Verse 9It shall be for Aaron [Light-bringer] and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place: for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Adonai made by fire by a perpetual statute.”Verse 10The son of an Israelite [Descendant of God prevails] woman, whose father was an Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery], went out among the children of Israel [God prevails]; and the son of the Israelite [Descendant of God prevails] woman and a man of Israel [God prevails] strove together in the camp.Verse 11The son of the Israelite [Descendant of God prevails] woman blasphemed HaShem [The Name], and cursed; and they brought him to Moses [Drawn out]. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan [He judged].Verse 12They put him in custody, until Adonai’s will should be declared to them.Verse 13Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,Verse 14“Bring out of the camp him who cursed; and let all who sh'ma ·heard obeyed· him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.Verse 15You shall speak to the children of Israel [God prevails], saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his crime deserving peanlty, sin ·missing the goal·.Verse 16He who blasphemes Adonai’s name, 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 HaShem [The Name], shall be put to death.Verse 17“‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.+Verse 18He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.Verse 19If anyone injures his neighbor; as he has done, so shall it be done to him:Verse 20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth;+as he has injured someone, so shall it be done to him. (Maftir ·Conclusion·)Verse 21He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.Verse 22You shall have one kind of judgment for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am Adonai your God.’”Verse 23Moses [Drawn out] spoke to the children of Israel [God prevails]; and they brought out him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel [God prevails] did as Adonai enjoined Moses [Drawn out].
