Leviticus 19:24-37 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

24. But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified for the praise of the Lord.

25. And in the fifth year you shall eat the produce, gathering the fruits which are brought forth. I am the Lord your God.

26. You shall not eat with blood. You shall not practice divination, nor the observation of dreams.

27. And you shall not cut the hair of your head circularly, nor shave your beard.

28. You shall not cut your flesh for the dead, and you shall not make other figures or marks on yourself. I am the Lord.

29. Do not prostitute your daughter, lest the land be contaminated and filled with crimes.

30. Observe my Sabbaths, and be apprehensive toward my Sanctuary. I am the Lord.

31. Do not turn aside to astrologers, nor consult with soothsayers, so as to be polluted through them. I am the Lord your God.

32. Rise up in the presence of a gray-haired head, and honor the reputation of an elder, and fear the Lord your God. I am the Lord.

33. If a newcomer lives in your land and abides among you, do not reproach him,

34. but let him be among you like one native born. And you shall love him as yourselves. For you were also newcomers in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

35. Do not be willing to accomplish iniquity in judgment, in lengths, in weights, in quantities.

36. Let the scales be just and the weights equal, let the dry measure be just and the liquid measure be equal. I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt.

37. Keep all my precepts, and all my judgments, and accomplish them. I am the Lord.
