Leviticus 19:21-30 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

21. And he shall bring his guilt offering to Yahweh at the tent of assembly’s entrance: a ram for a guilt offering.

22. And the priest shall make atonement for him before Yahweh with the ram of the guilt offering for his sin that he committed, and so his sin that he committed shall be forgiven him.

23. “ ‘And when you have come into the land and you plant any tree for food, you shall regard its fruit as unharvestable; for three years it shall be forbidden for you; it shall not be eaten.

24. But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, offerings of praise for Yahweh.

25. And in the fifth year you shall eat its fruit to increase its yield for you; I am Yahweh your God.

26. “ ‘You must not eat anything with the blood; you shall not practice divination, nor shall you interpret signs.

27. You shall not round off the corner hair of your head, and you shall not trim the corner of your beard.

28. And you shall not make a slash in your body for a dead person, nor shall you make on yourselves a tattoo’s mark; I am Yahweh.

29. “ ‘You shall not profane your daughter by making her a prostitute, lest the land be prostituted and the land fill up with depravity.

30. You shall keep my Sabbaths, and you shall revere my sanctuary; I am Yahweh.
