2. “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘You shall be holy; for I, the Lord your God, am holy.
3. “‘Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.
4. “‘Don’t turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am the Lord your God.
5. “‘When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
