19:1  And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
19:2  Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy.
19:3  Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and ye shall keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.
19:4  Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.
19:5  And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted.
19:6  It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if aught remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
19:7  And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination; it shall not be accepted:
19:8  but every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
19:9  And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest.
19:10  And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather the fallen fruit of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the stranger: I am the LORD your God.
19:11  Ye shall not steal; neither shall ye deal falsely, nor lie one to another.
19:12  And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, so that thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
19:13  Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbour, nor rob him: the wages of a hired servant shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
19:14  Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but thou shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD.
19:15  Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
19:16  Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD.
19:17  Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt surely rebuke thy neighbour, and not bear sin because of him.
19:18  Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
19:19  Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with two kinds of seed: neither shall there come upon thee a garment of two kinds of stuff mingled together.
19:20  And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; they shall be punished; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
19:21  And he shall bring his guilt offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the tent of meeting, even a ram for a guilt offering.
19:22  And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned: and he shall be forgiven for his sin which he hath sinned.
19:23  And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as their uncircumcision: three years shall they be as uncircumcised unto you; it shall not be eaten.
19:24  But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy, for giving praise unto the LORD.
19:25  And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the LORD your God.
19:26  Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantments, nor practise augury.
19:27  Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
19:28  Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.
19:29  Profane not thy daughter, to make her a harlot; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
19:30  Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
19:31  Turn ye not unto them that have familiar spirits, nor unto the wizards; seek them not out, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
19:32  Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and thou shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD.
19:33  And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not do him wrong.
19:34  The stranger that sojourneth with you shall be unto you as the homeborn among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
19:35  Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.
19:36  Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
19:37  And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the LORD.
