Leviticus
9:1-20:27
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Speak to all the congregation of the
sons of Israel and say to them, You shall be holy, for I, Jehovah your God, am
holy. 3 You shall each man revere his mother and his father, and keep My
Sabbaths. I am Jehovah your God. 4 Do not turn to idols, nor make molten gods to
yourselves. I am Jehovah your God. 5 And if you offer a sacrifice of peace
offerings to Jehovah, you shall offer it of your own free will. 6 It shall be
eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day. And if anything remains
until the third day, it shall be burned in the fire. 7 And if it is eaten at all
on the third day, it is abominable. It shall not be accepted. 8 And anyone that
eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of
Jehovah. And that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 9 And when you
reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corner of your
field. And you shall not gather the gleaning of your harvest. 10 And you shall
not glean your vineyard. And you shall not gather the leavings of your vineyard.
You shall leave them for the poor and the stranger. I am Jehovah your God. 11
You shall not steal, nor lie, nor be deceitful to one another.
12 And you shall not swear by My name falsely; nor shall you profane the name of
your God. I am Jehovah. 13 You shall not defraud your neighbor nor rob him. The
wages of him who is hired shall not stay with you until the morning. 14 You
shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling-block before the blind, but shall
fear your God. I am Jehovah. 15 You shall do no unrighteousness in
judgment. You shall not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of
the mighty; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness. 16 You shall not
go as a slanderer among your people; you shall not stand against the blood of
your neighbor. I am Jehovah. 17 You shall not hate your brother in your heart.
You shall always rebuke your neighbor, and not allow sin on him. 18 You
shall not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people; but you
shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am Jehovah. 19 You shall keep My
statutes. You shall not let your cattle breed with different kinds. You shall
not sow your field with two kinds of seed. And you shall not allow clothing
mixed of linen and wool to come on you. 20 And whoever lies with a woman
with semen, and she is a slave-girl, betrothed to a husband and not at all
redeemed, nor freedom given her, there shall be an inquest. They shall not be
put to death, because she was not free. 21 And he shall bring his trespass
offering to Jehovah, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a
ram for a trespass offering. 22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him
with the ram of the trespass offering before Jehovah for his sin which he has
done. And the sin which he has done shall be forgiven him. 23 And when you shall
come into the land, and shall have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you
shall count the fruit of them as uncircumcised. It shall be uncircumcised three
years to you. It shall not be eaten. 24 But in the fourth year all the fruit of
them shall be holy to praise Jehovah. 25 And in the fifth year you shall eat of
the fruit of it, so that it may yield to you its increase. I am Jehovah your
God. 26 You shall not eat anything with the blood. You shall not divine, nor
conjure spirits. 27 You shall not round the side of your head, nor mar the edge
of your beard.
28 You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any
marks on you. I am Jehovah. 29 You shall not prostitute your daughter, to cause
her to be a whore, lest the land go whoring, and the land become full of
wickedness. 30 You shall keep My Sabbaths and revere My sanctuary. I am Jehovah.
31 You shall not turn to mediums, and you shall not seek to spirit-knower to be
defiled by them. I am Jehovah your God. 32 You shall rise up before the gray
head and honor the face of the old man, and fear your God. I am Jehovah. 33 And
if a stranger lives with you in your land, you shall not oppress him. 34 The
stranger that dwells with you shall be to you as one born among you, and you
shall love him as yourself. For you were strangers in the land of Egypt. I am
Jehovah your God. 35 You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures
and weights, or in quantity. 36 You shall have just balances, just weights, a
just ephah, and a just hin. I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the
land of Egypt. 37 And you shall observe all My statutes and all My judgments,
and do them. I am Jehovah.
Amos
9:7-15
(7) Are you not like sons of the Ethiopians to Me, O sons of Israel,
says Jehovah? Have I not brought Israel up out of the land of Egypt? and the
Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? 8) Behold, the eyes of the
Lord Jehovah are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of
the earth; except that I will not completely destroy the house of Jacob, says
Jehovah. (9) For lo, I will command, and I will shake the house of Israel among
all the nations, as one shakes with a sieve, yet not a grain shall fall to the
earth. (10) All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, who say, The
evil shall not draw near, or come in front of us. (11) In that day I will raise
up the booth of David that has fallen, and close up its breaks; and I will raise
up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old; (12) so that they may
possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the nations on whom My name is called,
says Jehovah who is doing this. (13) Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that
the plowman and the reaper shall draw near, the treader of grapes, and he who
draws along the seed. And the mountains will drip must, and all the hills will
be dissolved. (14) And I will turn back the captivity of My people Israel, and
they shall build the cities which are desolate, and they shall live in them. And
they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine. They shall also make gardens
and eat their fruit. (15) And I will plant them on their land, and they shall no
more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, says Jehovah your
God.
Ezekiel
20:2-20
(2) And came the Word of Jehovah to me, saying, (3) Son of man, speak
to the elders of Israel and say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah: Have you come
to ask of Me? As I live, says the Lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you
(4) Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? Cause them to know the
abominations of their fathers. (5) And say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah: In
the day that I chose Israel, and lifted up My hand to the seed of the house of
Jacob, and made Myself known to them in the land of Egypt; when I lifted up My
hand to them, saying, I am Jehovah your God; (6) in the day that I lifted up My
hand to them, to bring them out from the land of Egypt into a land that I had
searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all
lands; (7) then I said to them, Let each man throw away the abominations of his
eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt. I am Jehovah your
God. (8) But they rebelled against Me and would not listen to Me. They did not
each man throw away the abominations of their eyes, nor did they forsake the
idols of Egypt. And I said, I will pour out My fury against them to fulfill My
anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. (9) But I worked for My
name's sake, that it should not be profaned before the nations among whom they
were, for I made Myself known to them in their eyes, by bringing them out of the
land of Egypt. (10) And I caused them to go out from the land of Egypt, and
brought them into the wilderness. (11) And I gave them My statutes and showed
them My judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them. (12) And also
I gave them My Sabbaths to be a sign between Me and them, that they might know
that I am Jehovah who sets them apart. (13) But the house of Israel rebelled
against Me in the wilderness; they did not walk in My statutes, and they
despised My judgments, which if a man does, he shall even live in them. And they
greatly profaned My Sabbaths. And I said, I will pour out My fury on them in the
wilderness to destroy them. (14) But I worked for My name's sake, so that it
should not be profaned before the nations in whose sight I brought them out.
(15) And also I lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, that I would not
bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey; it
is the glory of all lands; (16) because they despised My judgments and walked
not in My Sabbaths; and they profaned My Sabbaths; for their heart went after
their idols. (17) But My eye spared them from destroying them, nor did I make an
end of them in the wilderness. (18) But I said to their sons in the wilderness,
Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, nor observe their judgments, nor
defile yourselves with their idols. (19) I am Jehovah your God. Walk in My
statutes, and keep My judgments, and do them, (20) and keep My Sabbaths holy;
and they shall be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am Jehovah
your God.
Matthew
5:43-48
(43) You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor
and hate your enemy." (44) But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those who
curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully
use you and persecute you, (45) so that you may become sons of your Father in
Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain
on the just and on the unjust. (46) For if you love those who love you, what
reward do you have? Do not even the tax-collectors do the same? (47) And if you
greet your brothers only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the
tax-collectors do so? (48) Therefore be perfect, even as your Father in Heaven
is perfect.
