Leviticus 19:30-37

New International Reader's Version

³⁰ “ ‘You must always keep my Sabbath days. Have respect for my sacred tent. I am the Lord.

³¹ “ ‘Do not look for advice from people who get messages from those who have died. Do not go to people who talk to the spirits of the dead. If you do, they will make you “unclean.” I am the Lord your God.

³² “ ‘Stand up in order to show your respect for old people. Also have respect for me. I am the Lord your God.

³³ “ ‘Suppose an outsider lives with you in your land. Then do not treat them badly. ³⁴ Treat them as if they were one of your own people. Love them as you love yourself. Remember that all of you were outsiders in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

³⁵ “ ‘Be honest when you measure lengths, weights or amounts. ³⁶ Use honest scales and honest weights. Use honest dry measures. And use honest liquid measures. I am the Lord your God. I brought you out of Egypt.

³⁷ “ ‘Obey all my rules and laws. Follow them. I am the Lord.’ ”
