1. The Lord said to Moses:
2. Speak to the whole Israelite community and tell them: Be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.
3. Each of you revere your mother and father, and keep my sabbaths. I, the Lord, am your God.
4. Do not turn aside to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I, the Lord, am your God.
5. When you sacrifice your communion sacrifice to the Lord, you shall sacrifice it so that it is acceptable on your behalf.
