Levítico 24
Bible in Basic English
1And the Lord said to Moses,
2Give orders to the children of Israel to give you clean olive oil for the light, so that a light may be burning at all times,
3Outside the veil of the ark in the Tent of meeting; let Aaron see that it is burning from evening till morning at all times before the Lord: it is a rule for ever through all your generations.
4Let Aaron put the lights in order on the support before the Lord at all times.
5And take the best meal and make twelve cakes of it, a fifth part of an ephah in every cake.
6And put them in two lines, six in a line, on the holy table before the Lord.
7And on the lines of cakes put clean sweet-smelling spices, for a sign on the bread, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
8Every Sabbath day regularly, the priest is to put it in order before the Lord: it is offered for the children of Israel, an agreement made for ever.
9And it will be for Aaron and his sons; they are to take it for food in a holy place: it is the most holy of all the offerings made by fire to the Lord, a rule for ever.
10And a son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel and had a fight with a man of Israel by the tents;
11And the son of the Israelite woman said evil against the holy Name, with curses; and they took him to Moses. His mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12And they kept him shut up, till a decision might be given by the mouth of the Lord.
13And the Lord said to Moses,
14Take the curser outside the tent-circle; and let all in whose hearing the words were said put their hands on his head, and let him be stoned by all the people.
15And say to the children of Israel, As for any man cursing God, his sin will be on his head.
16And he who says evil against the name of the Lord will certainly be put to death; he will be stoned by all the people; the man who is not of your nation and one who is an Israelite by birth, whoever says evil against the holy Name is to be put to death.
17And anyone who takes another's life is certainly to be put to death.
18And anyone wounding a beast and causing its death, will have to make payment for it: a life for a life.
19And if a man does damage to his neighbour, as he has done, so let it be done to him;
20Wound for wound, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; whatever damage he has done, so let it be done to him.
21He who puts a beast to death will have to make payment for it; he who puts a man to death will himself be put to death.
22You are to have the same law for a man of another nation living among you as for an Israelite; for I am the Lord your God.
23And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, and they took the man who had been cursing outside the tent-circle and had him stoned. The children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:
2Manda á los hijos de Israel que te traigan aceite de olivas claro, molido, para la luminaria, para hacer arder las lámparas de continuo.
3Fuera del velo del testimonio, en el tabernáculo del testimonio, las aderezará Aarón desde la tarde hasta la mañana delante de Jehová, de continuo: estatuto perpetuo por vuestras edades.
4Sobre el candelero limpio pondrá siempre en orden las lámparas delante de Jehová.
5Y tomarás flor de harina, y cocerás de ella doce tortas: cada torta será de dos décimas.
6Y has de ponerlas en dos órdenes, seis en cada orden, sobre la mesa limpia delante de Jehová.
7Pondrás también sobre cada orden incienso limpio, y será para el pan por perfume, ofrenda encendida á Jehová.
8Cada día de sábado lo pondrá de continuo en orden delante de Jehová, de los hijos de Israel por pacto sempiterno.
9Y será de Aarón y de sus hijos, los cuales lo comerán en el lugar santo; porque es cosa muy santa para él, de las ofrendas encendidas á Jehová, por fuero perpetuo.
10En aquella sazón el hijo de una mujer Israelita, el cual era hijo de un Egipcio, salió entre los hijos de Israel; y el hijo de la Israelita y un hombre de Israel riñeron en el real:
11Y el hijo de la mujer Israelita pronunció el Nombre, y maldijo: entonces le llevaron á Moisés. Y su madre se llamaba Selomith, hija de Dribi, de la tribu de Dan.
12Y pusiéronlo en la cárcel, hasta que les fuese declarado por palabra de Jehová.
13Y Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo:
14Saca al blasfemo fuera del real, y todos los que le oyeron pongan sus manos sobre la cabeza de él, y apedréelo toda la congregación.
15Y á los hijos de Israel hablarás, diciendo: Cualquiera que maldijere á su Dios, llevará su iniquidad.
16Y el que blasfemare el nombre de Jehová, ha de ser muerto: toda la congregación lo apedreará: así el extranjero como el natural, si blasfemare el Nombre, que muera.
17Asimismo el hombre que hiere de muerte á cualquiera persona, que sufra la muerte.
18Y el que hiere á algún animal, ha de restituirlo: animal por animal.
19Y el que causare lesión en su prójimo, según hizo, así le sea hecho:
20Rotura por rotura, ojo por ojo, diente por diente: según la lesión que habrá hecho á otro, tal se hará á él.
21El que hiere algún animal, ha de restituirlo; mas el que hiere de muerte á un hombre, que muera.
22Un mismo derecho tendréis: como el extranjero, así será el natural: porque yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios.
23Y habló Moisés á los hijos de Israel, y ellos sacaron al blasfemo fuera del real, y apedreáronlo con piedras. Y los hijos de Israel hicieron según que Jehová había mandado á Moisés.
King James Version
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.
3Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning before the LORD continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations.
4He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually.
5And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake.
6And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the LORD.
7And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
8Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
9And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.
10And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;
11And the Israelitish woman’s son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)
12And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.
13And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
14Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death.
17And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
18And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.
19And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;
20Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.
21And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.
22Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.
23And Moses spake to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.

1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
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.
3Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
4He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before the LORD continually.
5“You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenths of an ephah shall be in one cake.
6You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
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 the LORD.
8Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is an everlasting covenant on the behalf of the children of Israel.
9It shall be for Aaron and his sons. They shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.”
10The 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.
11The 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.
12They put him in custody until the LORD’s will should be declared to them.
13The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14“Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16He who blasphemes the LORD’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.
17“‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:
20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
21He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
22You shall have one kind of law for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am the LORD your God.’”
23Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
