Leviticus 19:26-37 Modern English Version (MEV)

26. You shall not eat anything with the blood in it, nor shall you practice divination or fortune-telling.

27. You shall not round the corners of the hair on your head, nor shall you mar the edges of your beard.

28. You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the Lord.

29. Do not prostitute your daughter and cause her to be defiled, lest the land fall into whoredom and become full of wickedness.

30. You shall keep My Sabbaths and revere My sanctuary: I am the Lord.

31. Do not turn to spirits through mediums or necromancers. Do not seek after them to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.

32. You shall rise up before a gray head, and honor the face of an old man, and fear your God: I am the Lord.

33. When a foreigner sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong.

34. The foreigner who dwells with you shall be to you as one born among you, and you shall love him as yourself for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

35. You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment regarding measures in length, weight, or quantity.

36. You shall have honest balances, honest weights, an honest ephah, and an honest hin: I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

37. Therefore you shall observe all My statutes and all My judgments and do them: I am the Lord.
