New Testament

Leviticus 24:4-14 New King James Version (NKJV)

4. He shall be in charge of the lamps on the pure gold lampstand before the Lord continually.

5. “And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it. Two-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake.

6. You shall set them in two rows, six in a row, on the pure gold table before the Lord.

7. And you shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

8. Every Sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.

9. And it shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him from the offerings of the Lord made by fire, by a perpetual statute.”

10. Now the son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and this Israelite woman’s son and a man of Israel fought each other in the camp.

11. And the Israelite woman’s son blasphemed the name of the Lord and cursed; and so they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.)

12. Then they put him in custody, that the mind of the Lord might be shown to them.

13. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

14. “Take outside the camp him who has cursed; then let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
