Leviticus 19:1-9 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2. “Speak to all the community of the Israelites, and say to them, ‘You must be holy, because I, Yahweh your God, am holy.

3. Each of you must revere your mother and your father, and you must keep my Sabbaths; I am Yahweh your God.

4. You must not turn to idols, and you must not make for yourselves gods of cast metal; I am Yahweh your God.

5. “ ‘And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of fellowship offerings to Yahweh, you must sacrifice it for your acceptance.

6. It must be eaten on the day of your sacrifice and the next day; but the remainder must be burned up in the fire by the third day.

7. And if it is indeed eaten on the third day, it is unclean meat; it shall not be regarded as accepted.

8. And the one who eats it shall bear his guilt, because he has profaned Yahweh’s holiness, and that person shall be cut off from his people.

9. “ ‘And at your reaping the harvest of your land you must not finish reaping the edge of your field, and you must not glean the remnants of your harvest.
