The entire congregation brought him outside beyond the encampment, and they stoned him with stones, and he died, just as Adonoy commanded Moshe.

The Koren Jerusalem Bible

And all the congregation brought him outside the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord commanded Moshe.

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

And the entire congregation took him outside the camp [(whence it is seen that the stoning site is outside of beth-din and distant from it)], and they stoned him with stones and he died, as the L-rd had commanded Moses.

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

And the L-rd spoke to Moses, saying:

דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם וְעָשׂ֨וּ לָהֶ֥ם צִיצִ֛ת עַל־כַּנְפֵ֥י בִגְדֵיהֶ֖ם לְדֹרֹתָ֑ם וְנָ֥תְנ֛וּ עַל־צִיצִ֥ת הַכָּנָ֖ף פְּתִ֥יל תְּכֵֽלֶת׃

The Koren Jerusalem Bible

Speak to the children of Yisra᾽el, and bid them that they make them fringes in the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of each corner a thread of blue:

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

Speak to the children of Israel and say to them that they (shall) make for themselves tzitzith [fringes] on the corners of their garments throughout their generations; and they shall put on the tzitzith (on) the corner a strand of tcheleth [a bluish dye obtained from the chilazon (a kind of shell-fish)].

וְהָיָ֣ה לָכֶם֮ לְצִיצִת֒ וּרְאִיתֶ֣ם אֹת֗וֹ וּזְכַרְתֶּם֙ אֶת־כׇּל־מִצְוֺ֣ת יְהֹוָ֔ה וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם אֹתָ֑ם וְלֹֽא־תָת֜וּרוּ אַחֲרֵ֤י לְבַבְכֶם֙ וְאַחֲרֵ֣י עֵֽינֵיכֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־אַתֶּ֥ם זֹנִ֖ים אַחֲרֵיהֶֽם׃

Metsudah Chumash, Metsudah Publications, 2009

And it will be to you for fringes and you will look upon it and you will remember all of Adonoy’s commandments and you will perform them; and you will not search after [the desire of] your hearts and after your eyes which cause you to go astray.

The Koren Jerusalem Bible

and it shall be to you as a fringe, that you may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the Lord, and do them; and that you seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you go astray:

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

And it shall be for you for tzitzith, and you shall see it and you shall remember all the mitzvoth of the L-rd [(The gematria of "tzitzith" is 600, which, together with 8 (the strings) and 5 (the ties) gives 613 (the number of the mitzvoth)]. And you shall do them, and you shall not "spy out" [transgressions] after your hearts and after your eyes [the "procurers" of sin], after which you go astray.

לְמַ֣עַן תִּזְכְּר֔וּ וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם אֶת־כׇּל־מִצְוֺתָ֑י וִהְיִיתֶ֥ם קְדֹשִׁ֖ים לֵאלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם׃

In order that you will remember and perform all My commandments; and you will be holy unto your God.

that you may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

So that you remember and do all of My mitzvoth; and you shall be holy to your G-d.

אֲנִ֞י יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶ֗ם אֲשֶׁ֨ר הוֹצֵ֤אתִי אֶתְכֶם֙ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם לִהְי֥וֹת לָכֶ֖ם לֵאלֹהִ֑ים אֲנִ֖י יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃{פ}

I am Adonoy, your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am Adonoy your God.

The Koren Jerusalem Bible

I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Miżrayim, to be your God: I am the Lord your God.

The Rashi chumash by Rabbi Shraga Silverstein

I am the L-rd, [(trusted to reward)], your G-d, [(trusted to exact payment)], who took you out of the land of Egypt to be a G-d to you [i.e., so that you accept My decrees]; I am the L-rd your G-d [ — perforce! (You do not have the option of saying: "We shall not do the mitzvoth and not receive reward.")]
