Chapter 20

1And Hashem spoke to Moshe:

va-y'-da-BAYR a-do-NAI el mo-SHEH lay-MOR

אוַיְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃

2Say further to B'nei Yisrael: Anyone among the Israelites, or among the strangers residing in Yisrael, who gives any of his offspring to Molech, shall be put to death; the people of the land shall pelt him with stones.

3And I will set My face against that man and will cut him off from among his people, because he gave of his offspring to Molech and so defiled My sanctuary and profaned My holy name.

4And if the people of the land should shut their eyes to that man when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and should not put him to death,
