Ani YHWH the righeous Judge - wrath to those blaspheme His Name
24:1(vii) And YHWH (יהוה) spake unto Mosheh, saying:
24:2 Tzavah et Benai Yisrael, that they bring unto thee pure shemen (oil) zayit (olive) beaten for the light, to kindle the Ner Tamid (perpetual Lamps).
24:3 Without the poreket of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aharon order it from the evening unto the morning before YHWH (יהוה) continually: [it shall be] a chukkat (statute) olam (forever) in your generations.
24:4 He shall order the lamps upon the pure menorah before YHWH (יהוה) continually.
24:5 And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake Sheteym Esreh (12) Challot thereof: two tenth ephah (deals) shall be in challah ha echad.
24:6 And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before YHWH (יהוה).
24:7 And thou shalt put levonah (frankincense) zakkah (pure) upon [each] row, that it may be on the lechem for a memorial, [even] an offering made by fire unto YHWH (יהוה).
24:8 Every Shabbat he shall set it in order before YHWH (יהוה) continually, [being taken] from the benai Yisrael by a Brit Olam (everlasting).
24:9 And it shall be Aharon's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the kodesh place: for it [is] most kodesh unto him of the offerings of YHWH (יהוה) made by fire by a perpetual statute.
24:10 And the son of an Yisraelite woman, whose father [was] an Mitzrites, went out among the benai Yisrael: and this son of the Yisraelitish [woman] and a man of Yisrael strove together in the camp;
24:11 And the Yisraelitish woman's son blasphemed the Name [of YHWH (יהוה)], and cursed. And they brought him unto Moshe: (and his mother's name [was] Shelomit, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)
24:12 And they put him in ward, that the mind of YHWH (יהוה) might be shewed them.
24:13 And YHWH (יהוה) spake unto Mosheh, 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
Ha edah (assembly) stone him.
24:15 And thou shalt speak unto the benai Yisrael, saying:
"Whoever curses his Elohim (אלהים) shall bear his chet (sin)".
24:16
And he that blasphemeth the
Name YHWH (יהוה), 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 YHWH (יהוה)], 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 cause a blemish in his neighbour; 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(mum) in a man, so shall it be done to him [again].
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 misphat Echad (standard judgement), as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country:
for ANI YHWH (יהוה) Eloheichem.
24:23
And Mosheh spake to the benai Yisrael, that they
should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and
stone him with stones. And the benai Yisrael did as YHWH (יהוה) commanded Mosheh.
