nor the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you;
018:027 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done,
that were before you, and the land became defiled);
018:028 that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it,
as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
018:029 "'For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls
that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
018:030 Therefore you shall keep my charge, that you do not practice
any of these abominable customs, which were practiced
before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them:
I am Yahweh your God.'"
019:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
019:002 "Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel,
and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy.
019:003 "'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father.
You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am Yahweh your God.
019:004 "'Don't turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves.
I am Yahweh your God.
019:005 "'When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh,
you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
019:006 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 with fire.
019:007 If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination.
It will not be accepted;
019:008 but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has
profaned the holy thing of Yahweh, and that soul shall be cut
off from his people.
019:009 "'When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly
reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather
the gleanings of your harvest.
019:010 You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather
the fallen grapes of your vineyard; you shall leave them
for the poor and for the foreigner. I am Yahweh your God.
019:011 "'You shall not steal; neither shall you deal falsely,
nor lie to one another.
019:012 "'You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name
of your God. I am Yahweh.
019:013 "'You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him.
The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all
night until the morning.
019:014 "'You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling
block before the blind; but you shall fear your God.
I am Yahweh.
019:015 "'You shall do no injustice in judgment: you shall not be
partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great;
but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor.
019:016 "'You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people;
neither shall you stand against the life{literally,
"blood"} of your neighbor. I am Yahweh.
019:017 "'You shall not hate your brother in your heart.
