Numbers 15

vayedabber Adonai el-mosheh lemor

GOD spoke to Moses, saying:

dabber el-bene yisra'el ve'amarta alehem ki tavo'u el-erets moshevotekhem asher ani noten lakhem

Speak to the Israelite people and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you to settle in,

va'asitem isheh la-Adonai olah o-zevakh lefalle-neder o vindavah o bemo'adekhem la'asot reakh nikhoakh la-Adonai min-habbaqar o min-hatson

and would present an offering by fire to GOD from the herd or from the flock, be it burnt offering or sacrifice, in fulfillment of a vow explicitly uttered, or as a freewill offering, or at your fixed occasions, producing an odor pleasing to GOD:

vehiqriv hammaqriv qorbano la-Adonai minkhah solet issaron balul birvi'it hahin shamen

The person who presents the offering to GOD shall bring as a grain offering: a tenth of a measure of choice flour with a quarter of a hin of oil mixed in.

veyayin lannesekh revi'it hahin ta'aseh al-ha'olah o lazzavakh lakkeves ha'ekhad

You shall also offer, with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, a quarter of a hin of wine as a libation for each sheep.

o la'ayil ta'aseh minkhah solet shene esronim belulah vashemen shelishit hahin

In the case of a ram, you shall present as a grain offering: two-tenths of a measure of choice flour with a third of a hin of oil mixed in;

veyayin lannesekh shelishit hahin taqriv reakh-nikhoakh la-Adonai

and a third of a hin of wine as a libation—as an offering of pleasing odor to GOD.

vekhi-ta'aseh ven-baqar olah o-zavakh lefalle-neder o-shelamim la-Adonai

And if it is an animal from the herd that you offer to GOD as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice, in fulfillment of a vow explicitly uttered or as an offering of well-being,

vehiqriv al-ben-habbaqar minkhah solet sheloshah esronim balul bashemen khatsi hahin

there shall be offered a grain offering along with the animal: three-tenths of a measure of choice flour with half a hin of oil mixed in;

veyayin taqriv lannesekh khatsi hahin isheh reakh-nikhoakh la-Adonai

and as libation you shall offer half a hin of wine—these being offerings by fire of pleasing odor to GOD.

kakhah ye'aseh lashor ha'ekhad o la'ayil ha'ekhad o-lasseh vakkevasim o va'izzim

Thus shall be done with each ox, with each ram, and with any sheep or goat,

kammispar asher ta'asu kakhah ta'asu la'ekhad kemisparam

as many as you offer; you shall do thus with each one, as many as there are.

kol-ha'ezrakh ya'aseh-kkakhah et-elleh lehaqriv isheh reakh-nikhoakh la-Adonai

Every citizen, when presenting an offering by fire of pleasing odor to GOD, shall do so with them.

vekhi-yagur ittekhem ger o asher-betokhekhem ledorotekhem ve'asah isheh reakh-nikhoakh la-Adonai ka'asher ta'asu ken ya'aseh

And when, throughout the ages, a stranger who has taken up residence with you, or one who lives among you, would present an offering by fire of pleasing odor to GOD—as you do, so shall it be done by

haqqahal khuqqah akhat lakhem velagger haggar khuqqat olam ledorotekhem kakhem kagger yihyeh lifne Adonai

the rest of the congregation. There shall be one law for you and for the resident stranger; it shall be a law for all time throughout the ages. You and the stranger shall be alike before GOD;

torah akhat umishpat ekhad yihyeh lakhem velagger haggar ittekhem

the same ritual and the same rule shall apply to you and to the stranger who resides among you.

vayedabber Adonai el-mosheh lemor

GOD spoke to Moses, saying:

dabber el-bene yisra'el ve'amarta alehem bevo'akhem el-ha'arets asher ani mevi etkhem shammah

Speak to the Israelite people and say to them: When you enter the land to which I am taking you

vehayah ba'akholkhem millekhem ha'arets tarimu terumah la-Adonai

and you eat of the bread of the land, you shall set some aside as a gift to GOD:

reshit arisotekhem khallah tarimu terumah kitrumat goren ken tarimu otah

as the first yield of your baking, you shall set aside a loaf as a gift; you shall set it aside as a gift like the gift from the threshing floor.

mereshit arisotekhem tittenu la-Adonai terumah ledorotekhem

You shall make a gift to GOD from the first yield of your baking, throughout the ages.

vekhi tishgu velo ta'asu et kol-hammitsvot ha'elleh asher-dibber Adonai el-mosheh

If you unwittingly fail to observe any one of the commandments that GOD has declared to Moses—

et kol-asher tsivvah Adonai alekhem beyad-mosheh min-hayyom asher tsivvah Adonai vahale'ah ledorotekhem

anything that GOD has enjoined upon you through Moses—from the day that GOD gave the commandment and on through the ages:

vehayah im me'ene ha'edah ne'estah lishgagah ve'asu khol-ha'edah par ben-baqar ekhad le'olah lereakh nikhoakh la-Adonai uminkhato venisko kammishpat use'ir-izzim ekhad lekhattat

If this was done unwittingly, through the inadvertence of the community, the whole community shall present one bull of the herd as a burnt offering of pleasing odor to GOD, with its proper grain offering and libation, and one he-goat as a purgation offering.

vekhipper hakkohen al-kol-adat bene yisra'el venislakh lahem ki-shegagah hiv vehem hevi'u et-qorbanam isheh la-Adonai vekhattatam lifne Adonai al-shiggatam

The priest shall make expiation for the whole Israelite community and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and for their error they have brought their offering, an offering by fire to GOD and their purgation offering before GOD.

venislakh lekhol-adat bene yisra'el velagger haggar betokham ki lekhol-ha'am bishgagah

The whole Israelite community and the stranger residing among them shall be forgiven, for it happened to the entire people through error.

ve'im-nefesh akhat tekheta vishgagah vehiqrivah ez bat-shenatah lekhattat

In case it is an individual who has sinned unwittingly, that person shall offer a she-goat in its first year as a purgation offering.

vekhipper hakkohen al-hannefesh hashogeget bekhetah vishgagah lifne Adonai lekhapper alayw venislakh lo

The priest shall make expiation before GOD on behalf of the person who erred, for having sinned unwittingly, making such expiation that forgiveness is granted.

ha'ezrakh bivne yisra'el velagger haggar betokham torah akhat yihyeh lakhem la'oseh bishgagah

For the citizen among the Israelites and for the stranger who resides among them—you shall have one ritual for anyone who acts in error.

vehannefesh asher-ta'aseh beyad ramah min-ha'ezrakh umin-hagger et-Adonai hu megaddef venikhretah hannefesh hahiv miqqerev ammah

But whether citizen or stranger, the person who acts defiantly reviles GOD; that person shall be cut off from among their people.

ki devar-Adonai bazah ve'et-mitsvato hefar hikkaret tikkaret hannefesh hahiv avonah vah

Because GOD’s word was spurned and God’s commandment violated, that person shall be cut off—and bears the guilt.

vayyihyu vene-yisra'el bammidbar vayyimtse'u ish meqoshesh etsim beyom hashabbat

Once, when the Israelites were in the wilderness, a fellow was found gathering wood on the sabbath day.

vayyaqrivu oto hammotse'im oto meqoshesh etsim el-mosheh ve'el-aharon ve'el kol-ha'edah

Those who found him as he was gathering wood brought him before Moses, Aaron, and the whole community.

vayyannikhu oto bammishmar ki lo forash mah-yye'aseh lo

He was placed in custody, for it had not been specified what should be done to him.

vayyomer Adonai el-mosheh mot yumat ha'ish ragom oto va'avanim kol-ha'edah mikhuts lammakhaneh

Then GOD said to Moses, “The man shall be put to death: the whole community shall pelt him with stones outside the camp.”

vayyotsi'u oto kol-ha'edah el-mikhuts lammakhaneh vayyirgemu oto ba'avanim vayyamot ka'asher tsivvah Adonai et-mosheh

So the whole community took him outside the camp and stoned him to death—as GOD had commanded Moses.

vayyomer Adonai el-mosheh lemor

GOD said to Moses as follows:

dabber el-bene yisra'el ve'amarta alehem ve'asu lahem tsitsit al-kanfe vigdehem ledorotam venatenu al-tsitsit hakkanaf petil tekhelet

Speak to the Israelite people and instruct them to make for themselves fringes on the corners of their garments throughout the ages; let them attach a cord of blue to the fringe at each corner.

vehayah lakhem letsitsit ure'item oto uzekhartem et-kol-mitsvot Adonai va'asitem otam velo-taturu akhare levavkhem ve'akhare enekhem asher-attem zonim akharehem

That shall be your fringe; look at it and recall all GOD’s commandments and observe them, so that you do not follow your heart and eyes in your urge to stray.

lema'an tizkeru va'asitem et-kol-mitsvotay vihyitem qedoshim lelohekhem

Thus you shall be reminded to observe all My commandments and to be holy to your God.

ani Adonai elohekhem asher hotseti etkhem me'erets mitsrayim lihyot lakhem lelohim ani Adonai elohekhem

I am the ETERNAL your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I, your ETERNAL God.
