2. Speak to the whole Israelite community and tell them: Be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.
3. Each of you revere your mother and father, and keep my sabbaths. I, the Lord, am your God.
4. Do not turn aside to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I, the Lord, am your God.
5. When you sacrifice your communion sacrifice to the Lord, you shall sacrifice it so that it is acceptable on your behalf.
6. It must be eaten on the day of your sacrifice or on the following day. Whatever is left over until the third day shall be burned in fire.
7. If any of it is eaten on the third day, it will be a desecrated offering and not be accepted;
8. whoever eats of it then shall bear the penalty for having profaned what is sacred to the Lord. Such a one shall be cut off from the people.
9. When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not be so thorough that you reap the field to its very edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
10. Likewise, you shall not pick your vineyard bare, nor gather up the grapes that have fallen. These things you shall leave for the poor and the alien. I, the Lord, am your God.
11. You shall not steal. You shall not deceive or speak falsely to one another.
12. You shall not swear falsely by my name, thus profaning the name of your God. I am the Lord.
