24:1 The LORD said to Moses,
24:2 “Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning continually.
24:3 Outside the curtain of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron is to tend the lamps before the LORD from evening till morning, continually. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come.
24:4 The lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the LORD must be tended continually.
24:5 “Take fine flour and bake twelve loaves of bread, using two-tenths of an ephah for each loaf.
24:6 Set them in two rows, six in each row, on the table of pure gold before the LORD.
24:7 Along each row put some pure incense as a memorial portion to represent the bread and to be an offering made to the LORD by fire.
24:8 This bread is to be set out before the LORD regularly, Sabbath after Sabbath, on behalf of the Israelites, as a lasting covenant.
24:9 It belongs to Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in a holy place, because it is a most holy part of their regular share of the offerings made to the LORD by fire.”
24:10 Now the son of an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father went out among the Israelites, and a fight broke out in the camp between him and an Israelite.
24:11 The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name with a curse; so they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri the Danite.)
24:12 They put him in custody until the will of the LORD should be made clear to them.
24:13 Then the LORD said to Moses:
24:14 “Take the blasphemer outside the camp. All those who heard him are to lay their hands on his head, and the entire assembly is to stone him.
24:15 Say to the Israelites: ‘If anyone curses his God, he will be held responsible;
24:16 anyone who blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death. The entire assembly must stone him. Whether an alien or native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, he must be put to death.
24:17 “‘If anyone takes the life of a human being, he must be put to death.
24:18 Anyone who takes the life of someone’s animal must make restitution–life for life.
24:19 If anyone injures his neighbor, whatever he has done must be done to him:
24:20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. As he has injured the other, so he is to be injured.
24:21 Whoever kills an animal must make restitution, but whoever kills a man must be put to death.
24:22 You are to have the same law for the alien and the native-born. I am the LORD your God.’”
24:23 Then Moses spoke to the Israelites, and they took the blasphemer outside the camp and stoned him. The Israelites did as the LORD commanded Moses.
24:1 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
24:2 Command the children of Israel to bring to you pure oil of beaten olives for the light, to make the lamps burn continually.
24:3 Outside the veil of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting Aaron shall maintain it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah continually. It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations.
24:4 He shall maintain the lamps in order on the pure lampstand before Jehovah continually.
24:5 And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it; two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake.
24:6 And you shall set them in two rows, six in a row, on the table of pure gold before Jehovah.
24:7 And you shall put pure frankincense on each row, so that it may be a memorial for the bread, an offering by fire to Jehovah.
24:8 Every Sabbath day continually he shall set it in order before Jehovah; it is an everlasting covenant for the children of Israel.
24:9 And 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 Jehovah’s offerings by fire, a perpetual statute.
24:10 Now the son of an Israelite woman, who was also the son of an Egyptian man, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a certain Israelite struggled together in the camp.
24:11 And the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name and cursed, and they brought him to Moses. (Now his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.)
24:12 And they put him in custody so that it might be declared to them by the mouth of Jehovah.
24:13 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
24:14 Bring forth the one who has cursed outside the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the assembly stone him.
24:15 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Anyone who curses his God shall bear his sin.
24:16 And the one who blasphemes the name of Jehovah shall surely be put to death; all the assembly shall surely stone him. The sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.
24:17 And anyone who takes the life of any human being shall surely be put to death.
24:18 And the one who takes the life of a beast shall make restitution for it, life for life.
24:19 And anyone who causes an injury to his fellow countryman, as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
24:20 A fracture for a fracture, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; just as he has caused an injury to a man, so it will be inflicted on him.
24:21 And one who kills a beast shall make restitution for it, but one who kills a human being shall be put to death.
24:22 You shall have one judgment for the sojourner as well as for the native, for I am Jehovah your God.
24:23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought forth the one who had cursed outside the camp and stoned him with stones. So the children of Israel did just as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
