Numbers 15:14-24 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

14. Foreigners will live among you. If they give gifts to please the Lord, they must offer them the same way you do.

15. The same rules will be for everyone—the Israelites and the foreigners living among you. This law will continue forever. You and the people living among you will be the same before the Lord.

16. This means that you must follow the same laws and the same rules. These laws and rules are for you Israelites and for the other people who are living among you.”

17. The Lord said to Moses,

18. “Tell the Israelites this: I am taking you to another land.

19. When you eat the food that grows in that land, you must give part of that food as an offering to the Lord.

20. You will gather grain and grind it into flour to make dough for bread. You must give the first bread from that flour as a gift to the Lord. It will be like the grain offering that comes from the threshing floor.

21. You and all your descendants must give part of the first dough you make from that flour as a gift to the Lord.

22. “As you try to obey all the commands that the Lord gave Moses, you might fail and make a mistake.

23. The Lord gave you those commands through Moses, and they have been in effect from the day they were given throughout the generations until today.

24. If you made this mistake where everyone could see it, the whole community must offer a young bull as a burnt offering, as a sweet-smelling gift to the Lord. You must also offer the grain offering and the drink offering with the bull. And you must also give a male goat as a sin offering.
