New Testament

Numbers 15:36-41 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

36. So the whole community led him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

37. The Lord said to Moses:

38. Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout their generations they are to make tassels for the corners of their garments, fastening a violet cord to each corner.

39. When you use these tassels, the sight of the cord will remind you of all the commandments of the Lord and you will do them, without prostituting yourself going after the desires of your hearts and your eyes.

40. Thus you will remember to do all my commandments and you will be holy to your God.

41. I, the Lord, am your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I, the Lord your God.
