Leviticus 11:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
Leviticus 11:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye
shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
Leviticus 11:3
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among
the beasts, that shall ye eat.
Leviticus 11:4
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them
that divide the hoof: [as] the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth
not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:5
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is]
unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:6
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is]
unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:7
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth
not the cud; he [is] unclean to you.
Leviticus 11:8
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they
[are] unclean to you.
Leviticus 11:9
9 ¶ These shall ye eat of all that [are] in the waters: whatsoever hath
fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye
eat.
Leviticus 11:10
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of
all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which [is] in the waters,
they [shall be] an abomination unto you:
Leviticus 11:11
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh,
but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
Leviticus 11:12
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination
unto you.
Leviticus 11:13
13 And these [are they which] ye shall have in abomination among the fowls;
they shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage,
and the ospray,
Leviticus 11:14
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
Leviticus 11:15
15 Every raven after his kind;
Leviticus 11:16
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
Leviticus 11:17
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
Leviticus 11:18
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
Leviticus 11:19
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
Leviticus 11:20
20 ¶ All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination
unto you.
Leviticus 11:21
21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all]
four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
Leviticus 11:22
22 [Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald
locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after
his kind.
Leviticus 11:23
23 But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be]
an abomination unto you.
Leviticus 11:24
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them
shall be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:25
25 And whosoever beareth [ought] of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes,
and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:26
26 [The carcases] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and [is] not clovenfooted,
nor cheweth the cud, [are] unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall
be unclean.
Leviticus 11:27
27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on
[all] four, those [are] unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall
be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:28
28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even: they [are] unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:29
29 These also [shall be] unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep
upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
Leviticus 11:30
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the
mole.
Leviticus 11:31
31 These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them,
when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:32
32 And upon whatsoever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall
be unclean; whether [it be] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack,
whatsoever vessel [it be], wherein [any] work is done, it must be put into water,
and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
Leviticus 11:33
33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto [any] of them falleth, whatsoever [is]
in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
Leviticus 11:34
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, [that] on which [such] water cometh shall
be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every [such] vessel shall be
unclean.
Leviticus 11:35
35 And every [thing] whereupon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be
unclean; [whether it be] oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down:
[for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:36
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, [wherein there is] plenty of water, shall
be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
Leviticus 11:37
37 And if [any part] of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to
be sown, it [shall be] clean.
Leviticus 11:38
38 But if [any] water be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcase
fall thereon, it [shall be] unclean unto you.
Leviticus 11:39
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase
thereof shall be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:40
40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes,
and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 11:41
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth [shall be] an abomination;
it shall not be eaten.
Leviticus 11:42
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon [all] four, or
whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth,
them ye shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination.
Leviticus 11:43
43 ¶ Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that
creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should
be defiled thereby.
Leviticus 11:44
44 For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and
ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any
manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Leviticus 11:45
45 For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be
your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.
Leviticus 11:46
46 This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature
that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
Leviticus 11:47
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast
that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
Chapter 12
Leviticus 12:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 12:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed,
and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the
days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
Leviticus 12:3
3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
Leviticus 12:4
4 And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty
days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until
the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
Leviticus 12:5
5 But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her
separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore
and six days.
Leviticus 12:6
6 ¶ And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for
a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and
a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, unto the priest:
Leviticus 12:7
7 Who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her; and she
shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This [is] the law for her that
hath born a male or a female.
Leviticus 12:8
8 And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles,
or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin
offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
Chapter 13
Leviticus 13:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying,
Leviticus 13:2
2 When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright
spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh [like] the plague of leprosy; then
he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
Leviticus 13:3
3 And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and [when]
the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight [be] deeper
than the skin of his flesh, it [is] a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall
look on him, and pronounce him unclean.
Leviticus 13:4
4 If the bright spot [be] white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight [be]
not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white; then the
priest shall shut up [him that hath] the plague seven days:
Leviticus 13:5
5 And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold, [if] the plague
in his sight be at a stay, [and] the plague spread not in the skin; then the
priest shall shut him up seven days more:
Leviticus 13:6
6 And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold, [if]
the plague [be] somewhat dark, [and] the plague spread not in the skin, the
priest shall pronounce him clean: it [is but] a scab: and he shall wash his
clothes, and be clean.
Leviticus 13:7
7 But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he hath been seen
of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again:
Leviticus 13:8
8 And [if] the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin, then
the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it [is] a leprosy.
Leviticus 13:9
9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the
priest;
Leviticus 13:10
10 And the priest shall see [him]: and, behold, [if] the rising [be] white in
the skin, and it have turned the hair white, and [there be] quick raw flesh
in the rising;
Leviticus 13:11
11 It [is] an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce
him unclean, and shall not shut him up: for he [is] unclean.
Leviticus 13:12
12 And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all
the skin of [him that hath] the plague from his head even to his foot, wheresoever
the priest looketh;
Leviticus 13:13
13 Then the priest shall consider: and, behold, [if] the leprosy have covered
all his flesh, he shall pronounce [him] clean [that hath] the plague: it is
all turned white: he [is] clean.
Leviticus 13:14
14 But when raw flesh appeareth in him, he shall be unclean.
Leviticus 13:15
15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean:
[for] the raw flesh [is] unclean: it [is] a leprosy.
Leviticus 13:16
16 Or if the raw flesh turn again, and be changed unto white, he shall come
unto the priest;
Leviticus 13:17
17 And the priest shall see him: and, behold, [if] the plague be turned into
white; then the priest shall pronounce [him] clean [that hath] the plague: he
[is] clean.
Leviticus 13:18
18 ¶ The flesh also, in which, [even] in the skin thereof, was a boil,
and is healed,
Leviticus 13:19
19 And in the place of the boil there be a white rising, or a bright spot, white,
and somewhat reddish, and it be shewed to the priest;
Leviticus 13:20
20 And if, when the priest seeth it, behold, it [be] in sight lower than the
skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it [is] a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil.
Leviticus 13:21
21 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, [there be] no white hairs therein,
and [if] it [be] not lower than the skin, but [be] somewhat dark; then the priest
shall shut him up seven days:
Leviticus 13:22
22 And if it spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce
him unclean: it [is] a plague.
Leviticus 13:23
23 But if the bright spot stay in his place, [and] spread not, it [is] a burning
boil; and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
Leviticus 13:24
24 Or if there be [any] flesh, in the skin whereof [there is] a hot burning,
and the quick [flesh] that burneth have a white bright spot, somewhat reddish,
or white;
Leviticus 13:25
25 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, [if] the hair in the bright
spot be turned white, and it [be in] sight deeper than the skin; it [is] a leprosy
broken out of the burning: wherefore the priest shall pronounce him unclean:
it [is] the plague of leprosy.
Leviticus 13:26
26 But if the priest look on it, and, behold, [there be] no white hair in the
bright spot, and it [be] no lower than the [other] skin, but [be] somewhat dark;
then the priest shall shut him up seven days:
Leviticus 13:27
27 And the priest shall look upon him the seventh day: [and] if it be spread
much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it [is]
the plague of leprosy.
Leviticus 13:28
28 And if the bright spot stay in his place, [and] spread not in the skin, but
it [be] somewhat dark; it [is] a rising of the burning, and the priest shall
pronounce him clean: for it [is] an inflammation of the burning.
Leviticus 13:29
29 If a man or woman have a plague upon the head or the beard;
Leviticus 13:30
30 Then the priest shall see the plague: and, behold, if it [be] in sight deeper
than the skin; [and there be] in it a yellow thin hair; then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it [is] a dry scall, [even] a leprosy upon the head or
beard.
Leviticus 13:31
31 And if the priest look on the plague of the scall, and, behold, it [be] not
in sight deeper than the skin, and [that there is] no black hair in it; then
the priest shall shut up [him that hath] the plague of the scall seven days:
Leviticus 13:32
32 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the plague: and, behold,
[if] the scall spread not, and there be in it no yellow hair, and the scall
[be] not in sight deeper than the skin;
Leviticus 13:33
33 He shall be shaven, but the scall shall he not shave; and the priest shall
shut up [him that hath] the scall seven days more:
Leviticus 13:34
34 And in the seventh day the priest shall look on the scall: and, behold, [if]
the scall be not spread in the skin, nor [be] in sight deeper than the skin;
then the priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall wash his clothes, and
be clean.
Leviticus 13:35
35 But if the scall spread much in the skin after his cleansing;
Leviticus 13:36
36 Then the priest shall look on him: and, behold, if the scall be spread in
the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he [is] unclean.
Leviticus 13:37
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay, and [that] there is black hair
grown up therein; the scall is healed, he [is] clean: and the priest shall pronounce
him clean.
Leviticus 13:38
38 ¶ If a man also or a woman have in the skin of their flesh bright spots,
[even] white bright spots;
Leviticus 13:39
39 Then the priest shall look: and, behold, [if] the bright spots in the skin
of their flesh [be] darkish white; it [is] a freckled spot [that] groweth in
the skin; he [is] clean.
Leviticus 13:40
40 And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he [is] bald; [yet is] he
clean.
Leviticus 13:41
41 And he that hath his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his
face, he [is] forehead bald: [yet is] he clean.
Leviticus 13:42
42 And if there be in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore;
it [is] a leprosy sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
Leviticus 13:43
43 Then the priest shall look upon it: and, behold, [if] the rising of the sore
[be] white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy
appeareth in the skin of the flesh;
Leviticus 13:44
44 He is a leprous man, he [is] unclean: the priest shall pronounce him utterly
unclean; his plague [is] in his head.
Leviticus 13:45
45 And the leper in whom the plague [is], his clothes shall be rent, and his
head bare, and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean,
unclean.
Leviticus 13:46
46 All the days wherein the plague [shall be] in him he shall be defiled; he
[is] unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp [shall] his habitation
[be].
Leviticus 13:47
47 ¶ The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, [whether it be]
a woollen garment, or a linen garment;
Leviticus 13:48
48 Whether [it be] in the warp, or woof; of linen, or of woollen; whether in
a skin, or in any thing made of skin;
Leviticus 13:49
49 And if the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin,
either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it [is] a plague
of leprosy, and shall be shewed unto the priest:
Leviticus 13:50
50 And the priest shall look upon the plague, and shut up [it that hath] the
plague seven days:
Leviticus 13:51
51 And he shall look on the plague on the seventh day: if the plague be spread
in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, [or] in any
work that is made of skin; the plague [is] a fretting leprosy; it [is] unclean.
Leviticus 13:52
52 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in woollen or
in linen, or any thing of skin, wherein the plague is: for it [is] a fretting
leprosy; it shall be burnt in the fire.
Leviticus 13:53
53 And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the plague be not spread in the
garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin;
Leviticus 13:54
54 Then the priest shall command that they wash [the thing] wherein the plague
[is], and he shall shut it up seven days more:
Leviticus 13:55
55 And the priest shall look on the plague, after that it is washed: and, behold,
[if] the plague have not changed his colour, and the plague be not spread; it
[is] unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it [is] fret inward, [whether]
it [be] bare within or without.
Leviticus 13:56
56 And if the priest look, and, behold, the plague [be] somewhat dark after
the washing of it; then he shall rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin,
or out of the warp, or out of the woof:
Leviticus 13:57
57 And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof,
or in any thing of skin; it [is] a spreading [plague]: thou shalt burn that
wherein the plague [is] with fire.
Leviticus 13:58
58 And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of skin [it be],
which thou shalt wash, if the plague be departed from them, then it shall be
washed the second time, and shall be clean.
Leviticus 13:59
59 This [is] the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of woollen or linen,
either in the warp, or woof, or any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or
to pronounce it unclean.
Chapter 14
Leviticus 14:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 14:2
2 This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be
brought unto the priest:
Leviticus 14:3
3 And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall look,
and, behold, [if] the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper;
Leviticus 14:4
4 Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds
alive [and] clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
Leviticus 14:5
5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen
vessel over running water:
Leviticus 14:6
6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet,
and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird
[that was] killed over the running water:
Leviticus 14:7
7 And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven
times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into
the open field.
Leviticus 14:8
8 And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his
hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be clean: and after that he shall
come into the camp, and shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.
Leviticus 14:9
9 But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his
head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave off: and
he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall
be clean.
Leviticus 14:10
10 ¶ And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish,
and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of
fine flour [for] a meat offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil.
Leviticus 14:11
11 And the priest that maketh [him] clean shall present the man that is to be
made clean, and those things, before the LORD, [at] the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation:
Leviticus 14:12
12 And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass offering,
and the log of oil, and wave them [for] a wave offering before the LORD:
Leviticus 14:13
13 And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin offering
and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for as the sin offering [is] the
priest's, [so is] the trespass offering: it [is] most holy:
Leviticus 14:14
14 And the priest shall take [some] of the blood of the trespass offering, and
the priest shall put [it] upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be
cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his
right foot:
Leviticus 14:15
15 And the priest shall take [some] of the log of oil, and pour [it] into the
palm of his own left hand:
Leviticus 14:16
16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that [is] in his left
hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD:
Leviticus 14:17
17 And of the rest of the oil that [is] in his hand shall the priest put upon
the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of
his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of
the trespass offering:
Leviticus 14:18
18 And the remnant of the oil that [is] in the priest's hand he shall pour upon
the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an atonement
for him before the LORD.
Leviticus 14:19
19 And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make an atonement for him
that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill the
burnt offering:
Leviticus 14:20
20 And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering upon
the altar: and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
Leviticus 14:21
21 ¶ And if he [be] poor, and cannot get so much; then he shall take one
lamb [for] a trespass offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him, and
one tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log
of oil;
Leviticus 14:22
22 And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get; and
the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.
Leviticus 14:23
23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing unto the priest,
unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the LORD.
Leviticus 14:24
24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log
of oil, and the priest shall wave them [for] a wave offering before the LORD:
Leviticus 14:25
25 And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest shall
take [some] of the blood of the trespass offering, and put [it] upon the tip
of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right
hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot:
Leviticus 14:26
26 And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left hand:
Leviticus 14:27
27 And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger [some] of the oil that
[is] in his left hand seven times before the LORD:
Leviticus 14:28
28 And the priest shall put of the oil that [is] in his hand upon the tip of
the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right
hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood
of the trespass offering:
Leviticus 14:29
29 And the rest of the oil that [is] in the priest's hand he shall put upon
the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before
the LORD.
Leviticus 14:30
30 And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, such
as he can get;
Leviticus 14:31
31 [Even] such as he is able to get, the one [for] a sin offering, and the other
[for] a burnt offering, with the meat offering: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the LORD.
Leviticus 14:32
32 This [is] the law [of him] in whom [is] the plague of leprosy, whose hand
is not able to get [that which pertaineth] to his cleansing.
Leviticus 14:33
33 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
Leviticus 14:34
34 When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession,
and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession;
Leviticus 14:35
35 And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth
to me [there is] as it were a plague in the house:
Leviticus 14:36
36 Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest
go [into it] to see the plague, that all that [is] in the house be not made
unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:
Leviticus 14:37
37 And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, [if] the plague [be] in the
walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight
[are] lower than the wall;
Leviticus 14:38
38 Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut
up the house seven days:
Leviticus 14:39
39 And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and, behold,
[if] the plague be spread in the walls of the house;
Leviticus 14:40
40 Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the
plague [is], and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the city:
Leviticus 14:41
41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall
pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an unclean place:
Leviticus 14:42
42 And they shall take other stones, and put [them] in the place of those stones;
and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the house.
Leviticus 14:43
43 And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that he hath
taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is
plaistered;
Leviticus 14:44
44 Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, [if] the plague be spread
in the house, it [is] a fretting leprosy in the house: it [is] unclean.
Leviticus 14:45
45 And he shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber thereof,
and all the morter of the house; and he shall carry [them] forth out of the
city into an unclean place.
Leviticus 14:46
46 Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut up shall
be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 14:47
47 And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes; and he that eateth
in the house shall wash his clothes.
Leviticus 14:48
48 And if the priest shall come in, and look [upon it], and, behold, the plague
hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then the priest
shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
Leviticus 14:49
49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet,
and hyssop:
Leviticus 14:50
50 And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running
water:
Leviticus 14:51
51 And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the
living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running
water, and sprinkle the house seven times:
Leviticus 14:52
52 And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running
water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop,
and with the scarlet:
Leviticus 14:53
53 But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open fields,
and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.
Leviticus 14:54
54 ¶ This [is] the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,
Leviticus 14:55
55 And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
Leviticus 14:56
56 And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot:
Leviticus 14:57
57 To teach when [it is] unclean, and when [it is] clean: this [is] the law
of leprosy.
Chapter 15
Leviticus 15:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Leviticus 15:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a
running issue out of his flesh, [because of] his issue he [is] unclean.
Leviticus 15:3
3 And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether his flesh run with
his issue, or his flesh be stopped from his issue, it [is] his uncleanness.
Leviticus 15:4
4 Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the issue, is unclean: and every thing,
whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean.
Leviticus 15:5
5 And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe [himself]
in water, and be unclean until the even.

wash his clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.

and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.

his clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:9
9 And what saddle soever he rideth upon that hath the issue shall be unclean.
Leviticus 15:10
10 And whosoever toucheth any thing that was under him shall be unclean until
the even: and he that beareth [any of] those things shall wash his clothes,
and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:11
11 And whomsoever he toucheth that hath the issue, and hath not rinsed his hands
in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean
until the even.
Leviticus 15:12
12 And the vessel of earth, that he toucheth which hath the issue, shall be
broken: and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.
Leviticus 15:13
13 And when he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue; then he shall number
to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his
flesh in running water, and shall be clean.
Leviticus 15:14
14 And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtledoves, or two young
pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and give them unto the priest:
Leviticus 15:15
15 And the priest shall offer them, the one [for] a sin offering, and the other
[for] a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him before
the LORD for his issue.
Leviticus 15:16
16 And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all
his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:17
17 And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation, shall
be washed with water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:18
18 The woman also with whom man shall lie [with] seed of copulation, they shall
[both] bathe [themselves] in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:19
19 ¶ And if a woman have an issue, [and] her issue in her flesh be blood,
she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean
until the even.
Leviticus 15:20
20 And every thing that she lieth upon in her separation shall be unclean: every
thing also that she sitteth upon shall be unclean.
Leviticus 15:21
21 And whosoever toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe [himself]
in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:22
22 And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sat upon shall wash his clothes,
and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:23
23 And if it [be] on [her] bed, or on any thing whereon she sitteth, when he
toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:24
24 And if any man lie with her at all, and her flowers be upon him, he shall
be unclean seven days; and all the bed whereon he lieth shall be unclean.
Leviticus 15:25
25 And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her
separation, or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days of
the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she [shall
be] unclean.
Leviticus 15:26
26 Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue shall be unto her as
the bed of her separation: and whatsoever she sitteth upon shall be unclean,
as the uncleanness of her separation.
Leviticus 15:27
27 And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his
clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the even.
Leviticus 15:28
28 But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall number to herself seven
days, and after that she shall be clean.
Leviticus 15:29
29 And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtles, or two young pigeons,
and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Leviticus 15:30
30 And the priest shall offer the one [for] a sin offering, and the other [for]
a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for her before the
LORD for the issue of her uncleanness.
Leviticus 15:31
31 Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that
they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that [is]
among them.
Leviticus 15:32
32 This [is] the law of him that hath an issue, and [of him] whose seed goeth
from him, and is defiled therewith;
Leviticus 15:33
33 And of her that is sick of her flowers, and of him that hath an issue, of
the man, and of the woman, and of him that lieth with her that is unclean.
Chapter 16
Leviticus 16:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron,
when they offered before the LORD, and died;
Leviticus 16:2
2 And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not
at all times into the holy [place] within the vail before the mercy seat, which
[is] upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the
mercy seat.
Leviticus 16:3
3 Thus shall Aaron come into the holy [place]: with a young bullock for a sin
offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
Leviticus 16:4
4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches
upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen
mitre shall he be attired: these [are] holy garments; therefore shall he wash
his flesh in water, and [so] put them on.
Leviticus 16:5
5 ¶ And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two
kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
Leviticus 16:6
6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which [is] for himself,
and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
Leviticus 16:7
7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD [at] the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Leviticus 16:8
8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the
other lot for the scapegoat.
Leviticus 16:9
9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD'S lot fell, and offer him
[for] a sin offering.
Leviticus 16:10
10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented
alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, [and] to let him go for
a scapegoat into the wilderness.
Leviticus 16:11
11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which [is] for himself,
and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the
bullock of the sin offering which [is] for himself:
Leviticus 16:12
12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar
before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring
[it] within the vail:
Leviticus 16:13
13 And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the cloud
of the incense may cover the mercy seat that [is] upon the testimony, that he
die not:
Leviticus 16:14
14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle [it] with his
finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle
of the blood with his finger seven times.
Leviticus 16:15
15 ¶ Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that [is] for the
people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did
with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before
the mercy seat:
Leviticus 16:16
16 And he shall make an atonement for the holy [place], because of the uncleanness
of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their
sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remaineth
among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
Leviticus 16:17
17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goeth
in to make an atonement in the holy [place], until he come out, and have made
an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation
of Israel.
Leviticus 16:18
18 And he shall go out unto the altar that [is] before the LORD, and make an
atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood
of the goat, and put [it] upon the horns of the altar round about.
Leviticus 16:19
19 And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and
cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
Leviticus 16:20
20 ¶ And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy [place], and
the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
Leviticus 16:21
21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess
over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions
in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send [him]
away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
Leviticus 16:22
22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited:
and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
Leviticus 16:23
23 And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put
off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy [place],
and shall leave them there:
Leviticus 16:24
24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his
garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering
of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
Leviticus 16:25
25 And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the altar.
Leviticus 16:26
26 And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and
bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.
Leviticus 16:27
27 And the bullock [for] the sin offering, and the goat [for] the sin offering,
whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy [place], shall [one]
carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and
their flesh, and their dung.
Leviticus 16:28
28 And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water,
and afterward he shall come into the camp.
Leviticus 16:29
29 ¶ And [this] shall be a statute for ever unto you: [that] in the seventh
month, on the tenth [day] of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do
no work at all, [whether it be] one of your own country, or a stranger that
sojourneth among you:
Leviticus 16:30
30 For on that day shall [the priest] make an atonement for you, to cleanse
you, [that] ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
Leviticus 16:31
31 It [shall be] a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls,
by a statute for ever.
Leviticus 16:32
32 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister
in the priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and
shall put on the linen clothes, [even] the holy garments:
Leviticus 16:33
33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make
an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and
he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
Leviticus 16:34
34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for
the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD
commanded Moses.
Chapter 17
Leviticus 17:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 17:2
2 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel,
and say unto them; This [is] the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,
Leviticus 17:3
3 What man soever [there be] of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or
lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth [it] out of the camp,
Leviticus 17:4
4 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to
offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall
be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off
from among his people:
Leviticus 17:5
5 To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they
offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them
[for] peace offerings unto the LORD.
Leviticus 17:6
6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD [at] the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour
unto the LORD.
Leviticus 17:7
7 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they
have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their
generations.
Leviticus 17:8
8 And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man [there be] of the house of Israel,
or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering
or sacrifice,
Leviticus 17:9
9 And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to
offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.
Leviticus 17:10
10 ¶ And whatsoever man [there be] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers
that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my
face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his
people.
Leviticus 17:11
11 For the life of the flesh [is] in the blood: and I have given it to you upon
the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it [is] the blood [that]
maketh an atonement for the soul.
Leviticus 17:12
12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood,
neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.
Leviticus 17:13
13 And whatsoever man [there be] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers
that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may
be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
Leviticus 17:14
14 For [it is] the life of all flesh; the blood of it [is] for the life thereof:
therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner
of flesh: for the life of all flesh [is] the blood thereof: whosoever eateth
it shall be cut off.
Leviticus 17:15
15 And every soul that eateth that which died [of itself], or that which was
torn [with beasts, whether it be] one of your own country, or a stranger, he
shall both wash his clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until
the even: then shall he be clean.
Leviticus 17:16
16 But if he wash [them] not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
Chapter 18
Leviticus 18:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 18:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
Leviticus 18:3
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do:
and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not
do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
Leviticus 18:4
4 Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I [am]
the LORD your God.
Leviticus 18:5
5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do,
he shall live in them: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 18:6
6 ¶ None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover
[their] nakedness: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 18:7
7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not
uncover: she [is] thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Leviticus 18:8
8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it [is] thy father's
nakedness.
Leviticus 18:9
9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy
mother, [whether she be] born at home, or born abroad, [even] their nakedness
thou shalt not uncover.
Leviticus 18:10
10 The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, [even]
their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs [is] thine own nakedness.
Leviticus 18:11
11 The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father, she
[is] thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Leviticus 18:12
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she [is] thy
father's near kinswoman.
Leviticus 18:13
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for she [is]
thy mother's near kinswoman.
Leviticus 18:14
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou shalt
not approach to his wife: she [is] thine aunt.
Leviticus 18:15
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she [is] thy
son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Leviticus 18:16
16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it [is] thy brother's
nakedness.
Leviticus 18:17
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither
shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her
nakedness; [for] they [are] her near kinswomen: it [is] wickedness.
Leviticus 18:18
18 Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex [her], to uncover her
nakedness, beside the other in her life [time].
Leviticus 18:19
19 ¶ Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness,
as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
Leviticus 18:20
20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile
thyself with her.
Leviticus 18:21
21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through [the fire] to Molech,
neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 18:22
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.
Leviticus 18:23
23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither
shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.
Leviticus 18:24
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations
are defiled which I cast out before you:
Leviticus 18:25
25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it,
and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
Leviticus 18:26
26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit
[any] of these abominations; [neither] any of your own nation, nor any stranger
that sojourneth among you:
Leviticus 18:27
27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which [were] before
you, and the land is defiled;)
Leviticus 18:28
28 That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the
nations that [were] before you.
Leviticus 18:29
29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that
commit [them] shall be cut off from among their people.
Leviticus 18:30
30 Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that [ye] commit not [any one] of
these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile
not yourselves therein: I [am] the LORD your God.
Chapter 19
Leviticus 19:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 19:2
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them,
Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God [am] holy.
Leviticus 19:3
3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths:
I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:4
4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I [am] the LORD
your God.
Leviticus 19:5
5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer
it at your own will.
Leviticus 19:6
6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought
remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.
Leviticus 19:7
7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it [is] abominable; it shall not
be accepted.
Leviticus 19:8
8 Therefore [every one] that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath
profaned the hallowed thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from
among his people.
Leviticus 19:9
9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the
corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.
Leviticus 19:10
10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather [every]
grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I [am]
the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:11
11 ¶ Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.
Leviticus 19:12
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the
name of thy God: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:13
13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob [him]: the wages of him
that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
Leviticus 19:14
14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind,
but shalt fear thy God: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:15
15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person
of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: [but] in righteousness shalt
thou judge thy neighbour.
Leviticus 19:16
16 Thou shalt not go up and down [as] a talebearer among thy people: neither
shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:17
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke
thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
Leviticus 19:18
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people,
but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:19
19 ¶ Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with
a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall
a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.
Leviticus 19:20
20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that [is] a bondmaid, betrothed
to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be
scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
Leviticus 19:21
21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation, [even] a ram for a trespass offering.
Leviticus 19:22
22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass
offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he
hath done shall be forgiven him.
Leviticus 19:23
23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of
trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three
years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of.
Leviticus 19:24
24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the
LORD [withal].
Leviticus 19:25
25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield
unto you the increase thereof: I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:26
26 Ye shall not eat [any thing] with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment,
nor observe times.
Leviticus 19:27
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the
corners of thy beard.
Leviticus 19:28
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any
marks upon you: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:29
29 Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land
fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
Leviticus 19:30
30 ¶ Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I [am] the
LORD.
Leviticus 19:31
31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to
be defiled by them: I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:32
32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old
man, and fear thy God: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 19:33
33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.
Leviticus 19:34
34 [But] the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among
you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of
Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 19:35
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in
measure.
Leviticus 19:36
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have:
I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
Leviticus 19:37
37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do
them: I [am] the LORD.
Chapter 20
Leviticus 20:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 20:2
2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever [he be] of the
children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth
[any] of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of
the land shall stone him with stones.
Leviticus 20:3
3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his
people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary,
and to profane my holy name.
Leviticus 20:4
4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when
he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:
Leviticus 20:5
5 Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will
cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech,
from among their people.
Leviticus 20:6
6 And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards,
to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will
cut him off from among his people.
Leviticus 20:7
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 20:8
8 And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I [am] the LORD which sanctify
you.
Leviticus 20:9
9 For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to
death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood [shall be] upon him.
Leviticus 20:10
10 ¶ And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even
he] that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the
adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Leviticus 20:11
11 And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's
nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be]
upon them.
Leviticus 20:12
12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put
to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood [shall be] upon them.
Leviticus 20:13
13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have
committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall
be] upon them.
Leviticus 20:14
14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it [is] wickedness: they shall be
burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
Leviticus 20:15
15 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall
slay the beast.
Leviticus 20:16
16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt
kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood
[shall be] upon them.
Leviticus 20:17
17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's
daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it [is] a wicked
thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered
his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
Leviticus 20:18
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover
her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain
of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
Leviticus 20:19
19 And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy
father's sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.
Leviticus 20:20
20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his uncle's
nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
Leviticus 20:21
21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it [is] an unclean thing: he
hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
Leviticus 20:22
22 ¶ Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and
do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
Leviticus 20:23
23 And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before
you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Leviticus 20:24
24 But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it
unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I [am] the
LORD your God, which have separated you from [other] people.
Leviticus 20:25
25 Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between
unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast,
or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which
I have separated from you as unclean.
Leviticus 20:26
26 And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD [am] holy, and have severed
you from [other] people, that ye should be mine.
Leviticus 20:27
27 A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall
surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood [shall
be] upon them.
Chapter 21
Leviticus 21:1
1 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron,
and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:
Leviticus 21:2
2 But for his kin, that is near unto him, [that is], for his mother, and for
his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
Leviticus 21:3
3 And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no husband;
for her may he be defiled.
Leviticus 21:4
4 [But] he shall not defile himself, [being] a chief man among his people, to
profane himself.
Leviticus 21:5
5 They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off
the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
Leviticus 21:6
6 They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God:
for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, [and] the bread of their God, they
do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
Leviticus 21:7
7 They shall not take a wife [that is] a whore, or profane; neither shall they
take a woman put away from her husband: for he [is] holy unto his God.
Leviticus 21:8
8 Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he
shall be holy unto thee: for I the LORD, which sanctify you, [am] holy.
Leviticus 21:9
9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore,
she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
Leviticus 21:10
10 ¶ And [he that is] the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head
the anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments,
shall not uncover his head, nor rend his clothes;
Leviticus 21:11
11 Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father,
or for his mother;
Leviticus 21:12
12 Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his
God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God [is] upon him: I [am] the
LORD.
Leviticus 21:13
13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
Leviticus 21:14
14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, [or] an harlot, these shall he
not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
Leviticus 21:15
15 Neither shall he profane his seed among his people: for I the LORD do sanctify
him.
Leviticus 21:16
16 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 21:17
17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever [he be] of thy seed in their generations
that hath [any] blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
Leviticus 21:18
18 For whatsoever man [he be] that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a
blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
Leviticus 21:19
19 Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
Leviticus 21:20
20 Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy,
or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
Leviticus 21:21
21 No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh
to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall
not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
Leviticus 21:22
22 He shall eat the bread of his God, [both] of the most holy, and of the holy.
Leviticus 21:23
23 Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because
he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I the LORD do sanctify
them.
Leviticus 21:24
24 And Moses told [it] unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children
of Israel.
Chapter 22
Leviticus 22:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 22:2
2 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy
things of the children of Israel, and that they profane not my holy name [in
those things] which they hallow unto me: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 22:3
3 Say unto them, Whosoever [he be] of all your seed among your generations,
that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto the
LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence:
I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 22:4
4 What man soever of the seed of Aaron [is] a leper, or hath a running issue;
he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso toucheth any
thing [that is] unclean [by] the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
Leviticus 22:5
5 Or whosoever toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made unclean,
or a man of whom he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he hath;
Leviticus 22:6
6 The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall
not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water.
Leviticus 22:7
7 And when the sun is down, he shall be clean, and shall afterward eat of the
holy things; because it [is] his food.
Leviticus 22:8
8 That which dieth of itself, or is torn [with beasts], he shall not eat to
defile himself therewith: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 22:9
9 They shall therefore keep mine ordinance, lest they bear sin for it, and die
therefore, if they profane it: I the LORD do sanctify them.
Leviticus 22:10
10 ¶ There shall no stranger eat [of] the holy thing: a sojourner of the
priest, or an hired servant, shall not eat [of] the holy thing.
Leviticus 22:11
11 But if the priest buy [any] soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and
he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat.
Leviticus 22:12
12 If the priest's daughter also be [married] unto a stranger, she may not eat
of an offering of the holy things.
Leviticus 22:13
13 But if the priest's daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child,
and is returned unto her father's house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her
father's meat: but there shall no stranger eat thereof.
Leviticus 22:14
14 And if a man eat [of] the holy thing unwittingly, then he shall put the fifth
[part] thereof unto it, and shall give [it] unto the priest with the holy thing.
Leviticus 22:15
15 And they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which
they offer unto the LORD;
Leviticus 22:16
16 Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass, when they eat their holy
things: for I the LORD do sanctify them.
Leviticus 22:17
17 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 22:18
18 Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and
say unto them, Whatsoever [he be] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers
in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill
offerings, which they will offer unto the LORD for a burnt offering;
Leviticus 22:19
19 [Ye shall offer] at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves,
of the sheep, or of the goats.
Leviticus 22:20
20 [But] whatsoever hath a blemish, [that] shall ye not offer: for it shall
not be acceptable for you.
Leviticus 22:21
21 And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD to accomplish
[his] vow, or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be perfect to
be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.
Leviticus 22:22
22 Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall
not offer these unto the LORD, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the
altar unto the LORD.
Leviticus 22:23
23 Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing superfluous or lacking in
his parts, that mayest thou offer [for] a freewill offering; but for a vow it
shall not be accepted.
Leviticus 22:24
24 Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken,
or cut; neither shall ye make [any offering thereof] in your land.
Leviticus 22:25
25 Neither from a stranger's hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any
of these; because their corruption [is] in them, [and] blemishes [be] in them:
they shall not be accepted for you.
Leviticus 22:26
26 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 22:27
27 When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be
seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be
accepted for an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
Leviticus 22:28
28 And [whether it be] cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in
one day.
Leviticus 22:29
29 And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer [it]
at your own will.
Leviticus 22:30
30 On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the
morrow: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 22:31
31 Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 22:32
32 Neither shall ye profane my holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children
of Israel: I [am] the LORD which hallow you,
Leviticus 22:33
33 That brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I [am] the LORD.
Chapter 23
Leviticus 23:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, [Concerning] the feasts
of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations, [even] these
[are] my feasts.
Leviticus 23:3
3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day [is] the sabbath of rest,
an holy convocation; ye shall do no work [therein]: it [is] the sabbath of the
LORD in all your dwellings.
Leviticus 23:4
4 ¶ These [are] the feasts of the LORD, [even] holy convocations, which
ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
Leviticus 23:5
5 In the fourteenth [day] of the first month at even [is] the LORD'S passover.
Leviticus 23:6
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month [is] the feast of unleavened bread
unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
Leviticus 23:7
7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile
work therein.
Leviticus 23:8
8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD seven days: in the
seventh day [is] an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work [therein].
Leviticus 23:9
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:10
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into
the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye
shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
Leviticus 23:11
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the
morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
Leviticus 23:12
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish
of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:13
13 And the meat offering thereof [shall be] two tenth deals of fine flour mingled
with oil, an offering made by fire unto the LORD [for] a sweet savour: and the
drink offering thereof [shall be] of wine, the fourth [part] of an hin.
Leviticus 23:14
14 And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the
selfsame day that ye have brought an offering unto your God: [it shall be] a
statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Leviticus 23:15
15 ¶ And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from
the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall
be complete:
Leviticus 23:16
16 Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days;
and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:17
17 Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals:
they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; [they are] the
firstfruits unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:18
18 And ye shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of the first
year, and one young bullock, and two rams: they shall be [for] a burnt offering
unto the LORD, with their meat offering, and their drink offerings, [even] an
offering made by fire, of sweet savour unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:19
19 Then ye shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two
lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of peace offerings.
Leviticus 23:20
20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits [for] a
wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs: they shall be holy to the
LORD for the priest.
Leviticus 23:21
21 And ye shall proclaim on the selfsame day, [that] it may be an holy convocation
unto you: ye shall do no servile work [therein: it shall be] a statute for ever
in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
Leviticus 23:22
22 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance
of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any
gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger:
I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 23:23
23 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:24
24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first
[day] of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets,
an holy convocation.
Leviticus 23:25
25 Ye shall do no servile work [therein]: but ye shall offer an offering made
by fire unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:26
26 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:27
27 Also on the tenth [day] of this seventh month [there shall be] a day of atonement:
it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and
offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:28
28 And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it [is] a day of atonement,
to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God.
Leviticus 23:29
29 For whatsoever soul [it be] that shall not be afflicted in that same day,
he shall be cut off from among his people.
Leviticus 23:30
30 And whatsoever soul [it be] that doeth any work in that same day, the same
soul will I destroy from among his people.
Leviticus 23:31
31 Ye shall do no manner of work: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout
your generations in all your dwellings.
Leviticus 23:32
32 It [shall be] unto you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls:
in the ninth [day] of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate
your sabbath.
Leviticus 23:33
33 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:34
34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh
month [shall be] the feast of tabernacles [for] seven days unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:35
35 On the first day [shall be] an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work
[therein].
Leviticus 23:36
36 Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the
eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering
made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a solemn assembly; [and] ye shall do no
servile work [therein].
Leviticus 23:37
37 These [are] the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy
convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering,
and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, every thing upon his
day:
Leviticus 23:38
38 Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your
vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which ye give unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:39
39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in
the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the
first day [shall be] a sabbath, and on the eighth day [shall be] a sabbath.
Leviticus 23:40
40 And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches
of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and
ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.
Leviticus 23:41
41 And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. [It shall
be] a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh
month.
Leviticus 23:42
42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell
in booths:
Leviticus 23:43
43 That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell
in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your
God.
Leviticus 23:44
44 And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of the LORD.
Chapter 24
Leviticus 24:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 24:2
2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten
for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.
Leviticus 24:3
3 Without 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.
Leviticus 24:4
4 He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually.
Leviticus 24:5
5 And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals
shall be in one cake.
Leviticus 24:6
6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before
the LORD.
Leviticus 24:7
7 And 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.
Leviticus 24:8
8 Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, [being
taken] from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
Leviticus 24:9
9 And 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.
Leviticus 24:10
10 ¶ And 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;
Leviticus 24:11
11 And 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:)
Leviticus 24:12
12 And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.
Leviticus 24:13
13 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 24:14
14 Bring 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.
Leviticus 24:15
15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth
his God shall bear his sin.
Leviticus 24:16
16 And 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.
Leviticus 24:17
17 And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
Leviticus 24:18
18 And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.
Leviticus 24:19
19 And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall
it be done to him;
Leviticus 24:20
20 Breach 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].
Leviticus 24:21
21 And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man,
he shall be put to death.
Leviticus 24:22
22 Ye 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.
Leviticus 24:23
23 And 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.
Chapter 25
Leviticus 25:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
Leviticus 25:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the
land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.
Leviticus 25:3
3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard,
and gather in the fruit thereof;
Leviticus 25:4
4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath
for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
Leviticus 25:5
5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither
gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: [for] it is a year of rest unto the
land.
Leviticus 25:6
6 And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for thee, and for thy servant,
and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy stranger that sojourneth
with thee,
Leviticus 25:7
7 And for thy cattle, and for the beast that [are] in thy land, shall all the
increase thereof be meat.
Leviticus 25:8
8 ¶ And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times
seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee
forty and nine years.
Leviticus 25:9
9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth [day]
of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound
throughout all your land.
Leviticus 25:10
10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout [all]
the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and
ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man
unto his family.
Leviticus 25:11
11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither
reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather [the grapes] in it of thy
vine undressed.
Leviticus 25:12
12 For it [is] the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase
thereof out of the field.
Leviticus 25:13
13 In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.
Leviticus 25:14
14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest [ought] of thy neighbour's
hand, ye shall not oppress one another:
Leviticus 25:15
15 According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour,
[and] according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:
Leviticus 25:16
16 According to the multitude of years thou shalt increase the price thereof,
and according to the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the price of it: for
[according] to the number [of the years] of the fruits doth he sell unto thee.
Leviticus 25:17
17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God:
for I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 25:18
18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and
ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
Leviticus 25:19
19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell
therein in safety.
Leviticus 25:20
20 And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall
not sow, nor gather in our increase:
Leviticus 25:21
21 Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall
bring forth fruit for three years.
Leviticus 25:22
22 And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat [yet] of old fruit until the ninth
year; until her fruits come in ye shall eat [of] the old [store].
Leviticus 25:23
23 ¶ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land [is] mine; for ye
[are] strangers and sojourners with me.
Leviticus 25:24
24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the
land.
Leviticus 25:25
25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away [some] of his possession,
and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his
brother sold.
Leviticus 25:26
26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;
Leviticus 25:27
27 Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus
unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.
Leviticus 25:28
28 But if he be not able to restore [it] to him, then that which is sold shall
remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and
in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
Leviticus 25:29
29 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it
within a whole year after it is sold; [within] a full year may he redeem it.
Leviticus 25:30
30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house
that [is] in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought
it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.
Leviticus 25:31
31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall
be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall
go out in the jubile.
Leviticus 25:32
32 Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, [and] the houses of the cities
of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.
Leviticus 25:33
33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the
city of his possession, shall go out in [the year of] jubile: for the houses
of the cities of the Levites [are] their possession among the children of Israel.
Leviticus 25:34
34 But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it [is]
their perpetual possession.
Leviticus 25:35
35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou
shalt relieve him: [yea, though he be] a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may
live with thee.
Leviticus 25:36
36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother
may live with thee.
Leviticus 25:37
37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for
increase.
Leviticus 25:38
38 I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt,
to give you the land of Canaan, [and] to be your God.
Leviticus 25:39
39 ¶ And if thy brother [that dwelleth] by thee be waxen poor, and be sold
unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
Leviticus 25:40
40 [But] as an hired servant, [and] as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, [and]
shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:
Leviticus 25:41
41 And [then] shall he depart from thee, [both] he and his children with him,
and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers
shall he return.
Leviticus 25:42
42 For they [are] my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt:
they shall not be sold as bondmen.
Leviticus 25:43
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.
Leviticus 25:44
44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, [shall be] of
the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
Leviticus 25:45
45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them
shall ye buy, and of their families that [are] with you, which they begat in
your land: and they shall be your possession.
Leviticus 25:46
46 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to
inherit [them for] a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over
your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with
rigour.
Leviticus 25:47
47 And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and thy brother [that dwelleth]
by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger [or] sojourner by thee,
or to the stock of the stranger's family:
Leviticus 25:48
48 After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem
him:
Leviticus 25:49
49 Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or [any] that is nigh
of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem
himself.
Leviticus 25:50
50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold
to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according
unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it
be with him.
Leviticus 25:51
51 If [there be] yet many years [behind], according unto them he shall give
again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
Leviticus 25:52
52 And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall
count with him, [and] according unto his years shall he give him again the price
of his redemption.
Leviticus 25:53
53 [And] as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: [and the other] shall
not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.
Leviticus 25:54
54 And if he be not redeemed in these [years], then he shall go out in the year
of jubile, [both] he, and his children with him.
Leviticus 25:55
55 For unto me the children of Israel [are] servants; they [are] my servants
whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.
Chapter 26
Leviticus 26:1
1 ¶ Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a
standing image, neither shall ye set up [any] image of stone in your land, to
bow down unto it: for I [am] the LORD your God.
Leviticus 26:2
2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 26:3
3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
Leviticus 26:4
4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase,
and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
Leviticus 26:5
5 And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach
unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in
your land safely.
Leviticus 26:6
6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make
[you] afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the
sword go through your land.
Leviticus 26:7
7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
Leviticus 26:8
8 And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten
thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
Leviticus 26:9
9 For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you,
and establish my covenant with you.
Leviticus 26:10
10 And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new.
Leviticus 26:11
11 And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
Leviticus 26:12
12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
Leviticus 26:13
13 I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt,
that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke,
and made you go upright.
Leviticus 26:14
14 ¶ But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
Leviticus 26:15
15 And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments,
so that ye will not do all my commandments, [but] that ye break my covenant:
Leviticus 26:16
16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption,
and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart:
and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
Leviticus 26:17
17 And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies:
they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth
you.
Leviticus 26:18
18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you
seven times more for your sins.
Leviticus 26:19
19 And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as
iron, and your earth as brass:
Leviticus 26:20
20 And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her
increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
Leviticus 26:21
21 And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring
seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.
Leviticus 26:22
22 I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children,
and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your [high] ways shall
be desolate.
Leviticus 26:23
23 And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary
unto me;
Leviticus 26:24
24 Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times
for your sins.
Leviticus 26:25
25 And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of [my]
covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send
the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
Leviticus 26:26
26 [And] when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your
bread in one oven, and they shall deliver [you] your bread again by weight:
and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
Leviticus 26:27
27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
Leviticus 26:28
28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise
you seven times for your sins.
Leviticus 26:29
29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters
shall ye eat.
Leviticus 26:30
30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your
carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
Leviticus 26:31
31 And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation,
and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours.
Leviticus 26:32
32 And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein
shall be astonished at it.
Leviticus 26:33
33 And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after
you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.
Leviticus 26:34
34 Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and
ye [be] in your enemies' land; [even] then shall the land rest, and enjoy her
sabbaths.
Leviticus 26:35
35 As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your
sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
Leviticus 26:36
36 And upon them that are left [alive] of you I will send a faintness into their
hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase
them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when
none pursueth.
Leviticus 26:37
37 And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none
pursueth: and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
Leviticus 26:38
38 And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall
eat you up.
Leviticus 26:39
39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies'
lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with
them.
Leviticus 26:40
40 ¶ If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers,
with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have
walked contrary unto me;
Leviticus 26:41
41 And [that] I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into
the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and
they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
Leviticus 26:42
42 Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac,
and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
Leviticus 26:43
43 The land also shall be left of them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while
she lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of the punishment of
their iniquity: because, even because they despised my judgments, and because
their soul abhorred my statutes.
Leviticus 26:44
44 And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not
cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break
my covenant with them: for I [am] the LORD their God.
Leviticus 26:45
45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom
I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I
might be their God: I [am] the LORD.
Leviticus 26:46
46 These [are] the statutes and judgments and laws, which the LORD made between
him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
Chapter 27
Leviticus 27:1
1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 27:2
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man shall make
a singular vow, the persons [shall be] for the LORD by thy estimation.
Leviticus 27:3
3 And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty
years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel
of the sanctuary.
Leviticus 27:4
4 And if it [be] a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.
Leviticus 27:5
5 And if [it be] from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation
shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Leviticus 27:6
6 And if [it be] from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation
shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation
[shall be] three shekels of silver.
Leviticus 27:7
7 And if [it be] from sixty years old and above; if [it be] a male, then thy
estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Leviticus 27:8
8 But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before
the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to his ability that vowed
shall the priest value him.
Leviticus 27:9
9 And if [it be] a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the LORD, all that
[any man] giveth of such unto the LORD shall be holy.
Leviticus 27:10
10 He sha
