1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Command the children of Israel to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light, so that a lamp may be kept burning continually.
3 Outside the veil of the testimony in the tent of meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening until morning before the LORD continually; it is a statute forever for your generations.
4 On the pure lampstand he shall keep the lamps in order before the LORD continually.
5 "Take fine flour and bake from it twelve cakes; each cake shall be two tenths of an ephah.
6 Set them in two rows, six to a row, on the pure table before the LORD.
7 On each row put pure frankincense, which shall be a memorial portion for the bread, a food offering to the LORD.
8 Sabbath after Sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually; it is from the children of Israel, as a covenant forever.
9 It shall belong to Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place, for it is a most holy portion for him from the food offerings of the LORD, a statute forever."
10 Now the son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian man, went out among the children of Israel; and the Israelite woman's son and an Israelite man got into a fight in the camp.
11 The Israelite woman's son blasphemed the Name and cursed, and they brought him to Moses. (His mother's name was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.)
12 They placed him under guard until the decision of the LORD should be made plain to them.
13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14 "Take the man who cursed outside the camp; all who heard him are to press their hands on his head, and the whole congregation is to stone him.
15 And tell the children of Israel: Anyone who curses his God shall bear his sin.
16 Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death; the whole congregation must stone him. Stranger or native, when he blasphemes the Name, he shall be put to death.
17 "Anyone who strikes down any human being must be put to death.
18 Anyone who strikes down an animal shall make restitution for it, life for life.
19 When a man inflicts an injury on his neighbor, as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
20 break for break, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; just as he inflicted an injury on a person, so it shall be inflicted on him.
21 Whoever strikes down an animal shall make restitution for it, but whoever strikes down a human being shall be put to death.
22 You shall have one judgment, for the stranger and for the native alike; for I am the LORD your God."
23 Moses told this to the children of Israel, and they took the one who had cursed outside the camp and stoned him with stones. So the children of Israel did just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
