1 The oyle for the lampes. 5 The Shewbread. 10 Shelomiths sonne blasphemeth. 13 The Law of Blasphemie. 17 Of Murther. 18 Of Damage. 23 The blasphemer is stoned.

¹And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

²Command the children of Israel, that they bring vnto thee pure oyle Oliue, beaten, for the light, to cause the lampes to burne continually.²

³Without the Uaile of the Testimonie, in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, shal Aaron order it from the euening vnto the morning, before the Lord continually: It shall be a Statute for euer in your generations.

⁴He shall order the lampes vpon the pure Candlesticke before the Lord continually.⁴

⁵¶ And thou shalt take fine flowre, and bake twelue cakes thereof: two tenth deales shall be in one cake.⁵

⁶And thou shalt set them in two rowes, sixe on a row vpon the pure Table, before the Lord.

⁷And thou shalt put pure frankincense vpon ech row, that it may bee on the bread for a memorial, euen an offering made by fire vnto the Lord.

⁸Euery Sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an euerlasting couenant.

⁹And it shall be Aarons and his sonnes, and they shall eate it in the holy place: for it is most holy vnto him, of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, by a perpetuall statute.⁹

¹⁰¶ And the sonne of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this sonne of the Israelitish woman, and a man of Israel stroue together in the campe.

¹¹And the Israelitish womans sonne blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed, and they brought him vnto Moses: and his mothers name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

¹²And they put him in ward, that the minde of the Lord might bee shewed them.¹²

¹³And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

¹⁴Bring forth him that hath cursed, without the Campe, and let all that heard him, lay their hands vpon his head, and let all the Congregation stone him.¹⁴

¹⁵And thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoeuer curseth his God, shall beare his sinne.

¹⁶And hee that blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, and all the Congregation shall certainely stone him: Aswell the stranger, as he that is borne in the land, when he blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, shall be put to death.

¹⁷¶ And he that killeth any man, shall surely be put to death.¹⁷

¹⁸And he that killeth a beast, shall make it good; beast for beast.¹⁸

¹⁹And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shal it be done to him:¹⁹

²⁰Breach, for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him againe.

²¹And hee that killeth a beast, hee shall restore it: and hee that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.

²²Ye shall haue one maner of law, aswell for the stranger, as for one of your owne countrey: for I am the Lord your God.²²

²³¶ And Moses spake to the children of Israel, that they should bring foorth him that had cursed, out of the Campe, and stone him with stones: and the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
