¹⁴ And the uncircumcised male child, who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that person ^(A)shall be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.”

²⁴ And it came to pass on the way, at the ^(A)encampment, that the Lord ^(B)met him and sought to ^(C)kill him. ²⁵ Then ^(D)Zipporah took ^(E)a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son and ^[a]cast it at ^[b]Moses’ feet, and said, “Surely you are a husband of blood to me!” ²⁶ So He let him go. Then she said, “You are a ^[c]husband of blood!”—because of the circumcision.

Law Concerning Presumptuous Sin

^30 (A)‘But the person who does anything ^[a]presumptuously, whether he is native-born or a stranger, that one ^[b]brings reproach on the Lord, and he shall be ^[c]cut off from among his people. ³¹ Because he has ^(B)despised the word of the Lord, and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his ^[d]guilt shall be upon him.’ ”

¹⁹ For ^(A)seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land.

²⁹ For he who eats and drinks ^[a]in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the ^[b]Lord’s body.

Examine Yourself

²⁷ Therefore whoever eats ^(A)this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and ^[a]blood of the Lord.

³² not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that ^(A)I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, ^[a]though I was a husband to them, says the Lord.

¹⁰ They have turned back to ^(A)the iniquities of their forefathers who refused to hear My words, and they have gone after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers.”
