[3 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/3) ¶ Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I *am* the LORD your God. [4 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/4) ¶ Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I *am* the LORD your God. [5 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/5) ¶ And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, ye shall offer it at your own will. [6 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/6) It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire. [7 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/7) And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it *is* abominable; it shall not be accepted. [8 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/8) Therefore *every one* that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the LORD: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people. [9 ](/kjv/leviticus/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 gleanings of thy harvest. [10 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/10) And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather *every* grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I *am* the LORD your God. [11 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/11) ¶ Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another. [12 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/12) ¶ And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I *am* the LORD. [13 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/13) ¶ Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob *him:* the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning. [14 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/14) ¶ Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I *am* the LORD. [15 ](/kjv/leviticus/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. [16 ](/kjv/leviticus/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. [17 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/17) ¶ Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.* [18 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/18) ¶ Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I *am* the LORD. [19 ](/kjv/leviticus/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 mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee. [20 ](/kjv/leviticus/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; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.** [21 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/21) And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, *even* a ram for a trespass offering. [22 ](/kjv/leviticus/19/22) And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him. [23 ](/kjv/leviticus/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 uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of.
