New Testament

Numbers 15:27-41 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

27. ‘And if a being sins by mistake, then he shall bring a female goat a year old as a sin offering.

28. ‘And the priest shall make atonement for the being who strays by mistake, when he sins by mistake before יהוה, to make atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

29. ‘For him who does whatever by mistake there is one Torah, both for him who is native among the children of Yisra’ĕl and for the stranger who sojourns in their midst.

30. ‘But the being who does whatever defiantly, whether he is native or a stranger, he reviles יהוה, and that being shall be cut off from among his people.

31. ‘Because he has despised the word of יהוה, and has broken His command, that being shall certainly be cut off, his crookedness is upon him.’ ”

32. And while the children of Yisra’ĕl were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day.

33. And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Mosheh and to Aharon, and to all the congregation.

34. And they put him in under guard, because it had not been declared what should be done to him.

35. And יהוה said to Mosheh, “The man shall certainly be put to death, all the congregation stoning him with stones outside the camp.”

36. And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, as יהוה commanded Mosheh, and he died.

37. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,

38. “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and you shall say to them to make tzitziyot on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue cord in the tzitzit of the corners.

39. “And it shall be to you for a tzitzit, and you shall see it, and shall remember all the commands of יהוה and shall do them, and not search after your own heart and your own eyes after which you went whoring,

40. so that you remember, and shall do all My commands, and be set-apart unto your Elohim.

41. “I am יהוה your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to be your Elohim. I am יהוה your Elohim.”
