Leviticus 24 : 1 (HCSB)
The LORD spoke to Moses:
Leviticus 24 : 2 (HCSB)
"Command the Israelites to bring you pure oil of beaten olives for the light, so that the lamp will burn regularly.
Leviticus 24 : 3 (HCSB)
Aaron is to tend it regularly from evening until morning before the LORD outside the veil of the testimony in the tent of meeting. This is a permanent statute throughout your generations.
Leviticus 24 : 4 (HCSB)
He must regularly tend the lamps on the pure [gold] lampstand in the LORD's presence.
Leviticus 24 : 5 (HCSB)
"Take fine flour and bake it into 12 loaves; each loaf is to be made with four quarts.
Leviticus 24 : 6 (HCSB)
Arrange them in two rows, six to a row, on the pure [gold] table before the LORD.
Leviticus 24 : 7 (HCSB)
Place pure frankincense near each row, so that it may serve as a memorial portion for the bread and a fire offering to the LORD.
Leviticus 24 : 8 (HCSB)
The bread is to be set out before the LORD every Sabbath day as a perpetual covenant obligation on the part of the Israelites.
Leviticus 24 : 9 (HCSB)
It belongs to Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in a holy place, for it is the holiest portion for him from the fire offerings to the Lord; this is a permanent rule."
Leviticus 24 : 10 (HCSB)
Now the son of an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father was among the Israelites. A fight broke out in the camp between the Israelite woman's son and an Israelite man.
Leviticus 24 : 11 (HCSB)
Her son cursed and blasphemed the Name, and they brought him to Moses. (His mother's name was Shelomith, a daughter of Dibri of the tribe of Dan.)
Leviticus 24 : 12 (HCSB)
They put him in custody until the LORD's decision could be made clear to them.
Leviticus 24 : 13 (HCSB)
Then the LORD spoke to Moses:
Leviticus 24 : 14 (HCSB)
"Bring the one who has cursed to the outside of the camp and have all who heard [him] lay their hands on his head; then have the whole community stone him.
Leviticus 24 : 15 (HCSB)
And tell the Israelites: If anyone curses his God, he will bear the consequences of his sin.
Leviticus 24 : 16 (HCSB)
Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD is to be put to death; the whole community must stone him. If he blasphemes the Name, he is to be put to death, whether the foreign resident or the native.
Leviticus 24 : 17 (HCSB)
"If a man kills anyone, he must be put to death.
Leviticus 24 : 18 (HCSB)
Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, life for life.
Leviticus 24 : 19 (HCSB)
If any man inflicts a permanent injury on his neighbor, whatever he has done is to be done to him:
Leviticus 24 : 20 (HCSB)
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Whatever injury he inflicted on the person, the same is to be inflicted on him.
Leviticus 24 : 21 (HCSB)
Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, but whoever kills a person is to be put to death.
Leviticus 24 : 22 (HCSB)
You are to have the same law for the foreign resident and the native, because I am the LORD your God."
Leviticus 24 : 23 (HCSB)
After Moses spoke to the Israelites, they brought the one who had cursed to the outside of the camp and stoned him. So the Israelites did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
