Leviticus 24

Gen Z: Leviticus 24

1And the Lord hit up Moses, saying,

2Tell the squad of Israel to bring some pure olive oil, like, the good stuff, to keep the lamps lit 24/7.

3Aaron's gotta keep it fresh in the tabernacle, from evening to morning, no cap; it’s a forever vibe for your fam.

4He’s gotta keep those lamps shining on the pure candlestick before the Lord, always.

5Grab some fine flour and whip up twelve cakes: two tenths in each cake, no joke.

6Stack them in two rows, six in each, on the pure table before the Lord, fr.

7Toss pure frankincense on each row, making it a dope memorial offering to the Lord.

8Every sabbath, he’s gotta set it up before the Lord, taken from the kids of Israel by a forever promise.

9It’s for Aaron and his sons; they’re gonna munch on it in the holy spot, 'cause it’s super holy from the Lord’s fire offerings.

10A dude whose mom was Israelite and dad was Egyptian stepped out with the squad, and he and an Israelite had a beef in the camp.

11The Israelite’s kid dissed the Lord’s name and cursed. They brought him to Moses: (his mom was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri from Dan's tribe).

12They put him on lock so the Lord could show them what’s good.

13And the Lord hit up Moses again, saying,

14Bring out the one who cursed outside the camp; let everyone who heard him lay hands on him, and the whole crew should stone him.

15Tell the squad of Israel, if anyone curses their God, they gotta deal with their sin.

16If someone disses the Lord’s name, they’re getting the death penalty, and everyone’s stoning them, whether they’re a local or a stranger.

17If you kill someone, you’re definitely getting put to death, no cap.

18If you kill a beast, you gotta make it right; beast for beast, that’s how it goes.

19If someone messes up their neighbor, whatever they did, that’s what’s coming back to them.

20Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; if you cause a blemish, it’s gotta come back to you, periodt.

21If you kill a beast, you gotta replace it; if you take a life, you’re getting the death sentence.

22You all gotta have the same law, for the stranger and your own peeps: 'cause I’m the Lord your God.

23And Moses told the squad of Israel to bring out the one who cursed from the camp and stone him. And they did just as the Lord told Moses.

KJV: Leviticus 24

1And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

2Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.

3Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning before the Lord continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations.

4He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the Lord continually.

5And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake.

6And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the Lord.

7And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

8Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.

9And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the Lord made by fire by a perpetual statute.

10And 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;

11And the Israelitish woman’s son blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)

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

13And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

14Bring 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.

15And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.

16And 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.

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

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

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

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 again.

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

22Ye 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.

23And Moses spake 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.
