24:1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24:2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring to thee
pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn
continually.
24:3 Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the
congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening to the
morning before the LORD continually: [It shall be] a statute
for ever in your generations.
24:4 Ye shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before
the LORD continually.
24:5 And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of
it: two tenth-parts shall be in one cake.
24:6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the
pure table before the LORD.
24:7 And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon [each] row, that
it may be on the bread for a memorial, [even] an offering made
by fire to the LORD.
24:8 Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD
continually, [being taken] from the children of Israel by an
everlasting covenant.
24:9 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat
it in the holy place: for it [is] most holy to him of the
offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.
24:10 And the son of an Israelitish woman whose father [was] an
Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and this son
of the Israelitish [woman] and a man of Israel strove together
in the camp;
24:11 And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name [of
the LORD], and cursed: and they brought him to Moses: (and his
mother's name [was] Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the
tribe of Dan:)
24:12 And they put him in custody, that the mind of the LORD
might be shown to them.
24:13 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24:14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let
all that heard [him] lay their hands upon his head, and let all
the congregation stone him.
24:15 And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel, saying,
Whoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall
surely be put to death, [and] all the congregation shall
certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born
in the land, when he blasphemeth the name [of the LORD], shall
be put to death.
24:17 And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
24:18 And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for
beast.
24:19 And if a man shall cause a blemish in his neighbor; as he
hath done, so shall it be done to him;
24:20 Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he
hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him.
24:21 And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he
that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.
24:22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger,
as for one of your own country: for I [am] the LORD your God.
24:23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they
should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and
stone him with stones: and the children of Israel did as the
LORD commanded Moses.
