1 And theLordspoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you have come into the land you are to inhabit, which I am giving to you,
3 and youmake an offering by fire to theLord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice,to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering orin your appointed feasts, to make asweet aroma to theLord, from the herd or the flock,
4 thenhe who presents his offering to theLordshall bringa grain offering of one-tenthofanephahof fine flour mixedwith one-fourth of a hin of oil;
5 and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering you shall prepare with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for eachlamb.

7 and as a drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a sweet aroma to theLord.
8 And when you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or as apeace offering to theLord,
9 then shall be offeredwith the young bull a grain offering of three-tenthsofanephahof fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil;
10 and you shall bring as the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to theLord.
11 ‘Thus it shall be done for each young bull, for each ram, or for each lamb or young goat.
12 According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do with everyone according to their number.
13 All who are native-born shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to theLord.
14 And if a stranger dwells with you, or whoeverisamong you throughout your generations, and would present an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to theLord, just as you do, so shall he do.
15 One ordinanceshallbefor you of the assembly and for the stranger who dwellswithyou,an ordinance forever throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the stranger be before theLord.
16 One law and one custom shall be for you and for the stranger who dwells with you.’ ”
17 Again theLordspoke to Moses, saying,
18 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land to which I bring you,
19 then it will be, when you eat ofthe bread of the land, that you shall offer up a heave offering to theLord.
20 You shall offer up a cake of the first of your ground mealasa heave offering; as a heave offering of the threshing floor, so shall you offer it up.
21 Of the first of your ground meal you shall give to theLorda heave offering throughout your generations.
Laws Concerning Unintentional Sin
22 ‘If you sin unintentionally, and do not observe all these commandments which theLordhas spoken to Moses—
23 all that theLordhas commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day theLordgave commandment and onward throughout your generations—
24 then it will be,if it is unintentionally committed, without the knowledge of the congregation, that the whole congregation shall offer one young bull as a burnt offering, as a sweet aroma to theLord,with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the ordinance, andone kid of the goats as a sin offering.
25 So the priest shall make atonement for the whole congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them, for it was unintentional; they shall bring their offering, an offering made by fire to theLord, and their sin offering before theLord, for their unintended sin.
26 It shall be forgiven the whole congregation of the children of Israel and the stranger who dwells among them, because all the peoplediditunintentionally.
27 ‘Andif a person sins unintentionally, then he shall bring a female goat in its first year as a sin offering.
28 So the priest shall make atonement for the person who sins unintentionally, when he sins unintentionally before theLord, to make atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him.
29 You shall have one law for him who sins unintentionally,forhim who is native-born among the children of Israel and for the stranger who dwells among them.
Law Concerning Presumptuous Sin
30 ‘But the person who doesanythingpresumptuously,whetherheisnative-born or a stranger, that one brings reproach on theLord, and he shall be cut off from among his people.
31 Because he hasdespised the word of theLord, and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guiltshallbeupon him.’ ”
Penalty for Violating the Sabbath
32 Now while the children of Israel were in the wilderness,they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.
33 And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
34 They put himunder guard, because it had not been explained what should be done to him.
35 Then theLordsaid to Moses,“The man must surely be put to death; all the congregation shallstone him with stones outside the camp.”
36 So, as theLordcommanded Moses, all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, and he died.
Tassels on Garments
37 Again theLordspoke to Moses, saying,
38 “Speak to the children of Israel: Tellthem to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue thread in the tassels of the corners.
39 And you shall have the tassel, that you may look upon it andremember all the commandments of theLordand do them, and that youmaynotfollow the harlotry to which your own heart and your own eyes are inclined,
40 and that you may remember and do all My commandments, and beholy for your God.
