Levi ASV 19:2  Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I Jehovah your God am holy.
Levi ASV 19:3  Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father; and ye shall keep my sabbaths: I am Jehovah your God.
Levi ASV 19:4  Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
Levi ASV 19:5  And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto Jehovah, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted.
Levi ASV 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.
Levi ASV 19:7  And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination; it shall not be accepted:
Levi ASV 19:8  but every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of Jehovah: and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
Levi ASV 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.

Levi ASV 19:12  And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah.

Levi ASV 19:14  Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind; but thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 19:15  Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty; but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor.
Levi ASV 19:16  Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 19:17  Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt surely rebuke thy neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
Levi ASV 19:18  Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 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.
Levi ASV 19:20  And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to a 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.
Levi ASV 19:21  And he shall bring his trespass-offering unto Jehovah, unto the door of the tent of meeting, even a ram for a trespass-offering.
Levi ASV 19:22  And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering before Jehovah for his sin which he hath sinned: and the sin which he hath sinned shall be forgiven him.
Levi ASV 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.
Levi ASV 19:24  But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy, for giving praise unto Jehovah.
Levi ASV 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 Jehovah your God.

Levi ASV 19:27  Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
Levi ASV 19:28  Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 19:29  Profane not thy daughter, to make her a harlot; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
Levi ASV 19:30  Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 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 Jehovah your God.
Levi ASV 19:32  Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of the old man, and thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
Levi ASV 19:33  And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not do him wrong.
Levi ASV 19:34  The stranger that sojourneth with you shall be unto you as the home-born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
Levi ASV 19:35  Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.
Levi ASV 19:36  Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
Levi ASV 19:37  And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine ordinances, and do them: I am Jehovah.
