Leviticus 19:18-31 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

18. ‘Do not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the children of your people. And you shall love your neighbour as yourself. I am יהוה.

19. ‘Guard My laws. Do not let your livestock mate with another kind. Do not sow your field with mixed seed. And do not put a garment woven of two sorts of thread upon you.

20. ‘And when a man has intercourse with a woman who is a female servant, engaged to a man, and who has not at all been ransomed nor redeemed, there should be an inquiry. But they are not put to death, because she was not free.

21. ‘And he shall bring his guilt offering to יהוה, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, a ram as a guilt offering.

22. ‘And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before יהוה for his sin which he has done. And the sin which he has sinned shall be forgiven him.

23. ‘And when you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall reckon their fruit as uncircumcised. For three years it is as uncircumcised to you, it is not eaten.

24. ‘And in the fourth year all its fruit is set-apart – praises to יהוה.

25. ‘And in the fifth year you eat its fruit, so that it increases its yield to you. I am יהוה your Elohim.

26. ‘Do not eat meat with the blood. Do not practise divination or magic.

27. ‘Do not round the corner of your head, nor destroy the corner of your beard.

28. ‘And do not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor put tattoo marks on you. I am יהוה.

29. ‘Do not profane your daughter by making her a whore, so that the land does not whore, and the land becomes filled with wickedness.

30. ‘Guard My Sabbaths and reverence My set-apart place. I am יהוה.

31. ‘Do not turn to mediums, and do not seek after spiritists to be defiled by them. I am יהוה your Elohim.
