The Pentateuch

copyright 2011, all rights reserved.

The Pentateuch consists of the first five books of the Bible:  Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy.  It is also called the law of Moses.  But Moses didn't invent those laws.

God gave them to Moses, and Moses gave them to the people.  

The Ten Commandments are found in Exodus chapter 20.  

Genesis gives us the creation of the world, the animals, birds, fish, and man.  God made a wife for Adam,  Eve.  After men had multiplied on earth and become very wicked, God told Noah to build an ark.  The flood killed everyone except eight souls--Noah and his family.  The land animals also started over from those carried in the ark. 

Exodus gives us the departing of Israel from Egyptian bondage.  Pharaoh, ruler of Egypt needed a lot of persuading, which God provided in the form of plagues against Egypt.  

One of God's laws in the book of Numbers, chapter 35, verse 33, says that murderers must be executed.  God requires capital punishment.  Of course, nations can choose to go against God, and not execute murderers, but disobeying God never turns out well.  

Generally, the European nations are not executing murderers.  Not surprisingly, many of those nations are close to bankruptcy.

Not that the United States is doing so extremely well, but then our nation is far from the God-fearing nation that it was when it was founded.  


___Genesis chapter 1 
 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
 2 And the earth was without form, and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep.  And the Spirit of God moved on the face of the waters.
 3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
 4 And God saw the light, that it was good, and God divided the light from the darkness.
 5 And God called the light Day, and he called the darkness Night.  And the evening and the morning were the first day.
 6 And God said, "Let there be a firmament in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament from the waters that were above the firmament, and it was so.
 8 And God called the firmament heaven.  And the evening and the morning were the second day.
 9 And God said, "Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear," and it was so.
 10 And God called the dry land earth, and the gathering together of the waters he called seas, and God saw that it was good.
 11 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the plant yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth," and it was so.
 12 And the earth brought forth grass, and plant yielding seed after its kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after its kind, and God saw that it was good.
 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
 14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years,
 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light on the earth," and it was so.
 16 And God made two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night, he made the stars also.
 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light on the earth,
 18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness, and God saw that it was good.
 19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
 20 And God said, "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and birds that will fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven."
 21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters produced abundantly after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind, and God saw that it was good.
 22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply in the earth."
 23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
 24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind," and it was so.
 25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the earth after its kind, and God saw that it was good.
 26 And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
 27 So God created man in his own image, he created him in the image of God, he created male and female.
 28 And God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."
 29 And God said, "See, I've given you every plant bearing seed, that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, to you it shall be for food.
 30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I've given every green plant for food," and it was so.
 31 And God saw everything that he had made, and see, it was very good.  And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

___Genesis chapter 2
 1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work that he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had made.
 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it, because in it he had rested from all his work that God created and made.
 4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,
 5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every plant of the field before it grew, for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
 6 But a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
 7 And the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
 8 And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and he put the man whom he had formed there.
 9 And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
 10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it was divided, and became four heads.
 11 The name of the first is Pison, that's the one that surrounds the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold,
 12 And the gold of that land is good, there's bdellium and the onyx stone.
 13 And the name of the second river is Gihon, it's the one that surrounds the whole land of Ethiopia.
 14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel, it's the one that goes toward the east of Assyria.  And the fourth river is Euphrates.
 15 And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, "Of every tree of the garden you can freely eat,
 17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it, for in the day that you eat of it you'll surely die."
 18 And the Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone, I'll make him a helper appropriate for him."
 19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called every living creature, that was the name of it.
 20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field, but for Adam there was not found a helper right for him.
 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead of it,
 22 And the rib, that the Lord God had taken from man, he made into a woman, and brought her to the man.
 23 And Adam said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh, she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of Man."
 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall stick with his wife, and they'll be one flesh.
 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

___Genesis chapter 3
 1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field that the Lord God had made.  And he said to the woman, "Yes, has God said, You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?"
 2 And the woman said to the serpent, "We can eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden,
 3 But of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, God said, You shall not eat of it, nor shall you touch it, or you'll die."
 4 And the serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die,
 5 For God knows that on the day you eat of it, then your eyes will be opened, and you'll be like gods, knowing good and evil."
 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make you wise, she took some of its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
 7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked, and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
 8 And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
 9 And the Lord God called to Adam, and said to him, "Where are you?"
 10 And he said, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself."
 11 And he said, "Who told you that you were naked?  Have you eaten of the tree that I commanded you not to eat of?"
 12 And the man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate."
 13 And the Lord God said to the woman, "What is this that you've done?"  And the woman said, "The serpent seduced me, and I ate."
 14 And the Lord God said to the serpent, "Because you've done this, you are cursed more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field, you'll go on your belly, and you'll eat dust all the days of your life,
 15 And I will put friction between you and the woman, and between your descendants and her descendants, your head will be bruised, and you'll bruise their heel."
 16 To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception, in sorrow you'll give birth to children, and your desire shall be to your husband, and he'll rule over you."
 17 And to Adam he said, "Because you've listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree about which I commanded you, You shall not eat of it, cursed is the ground for your sake, in sorrow you'll eat of it all the days of your life,
 18 It shall produce for you thorns also and thistles, and you'll eat the plants of the field,
 19 In the sweat of your face you'll eat bread, until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken, for you are dust, and to dust you'll return."
 20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of everyone living.
 21 For Adam also and for his wife the Lord God made coats of skins, and clothed them.
 22 And the Lord God said, "See, the man has become like one of us, to know good and evil, and now, so that he won't put out his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever,"
 23 Therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he'd been taken.
 24 So he drove out the man, and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden angels, and a flaming sword that turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

___Genesis chapter 4
 1 And Adam had sex with his wife, Eve, and she conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, "I've gotten a man from the Lord."
 2 And she again bore his brother Abel.  And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
 3 And in process of time, Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to the Lord.
 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat of it.  And the Lord had respect to Abel and to his offering,
 5 But to Cain and to his offering he didn't have respect.  And Cain was very angry, and his facial expression fell.
 6 And the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry?  And why has your facial expression fallen?
 7 If you do well, won't you be accepted?  And if you don't do well, sin lies at the door.  And his desire shall be to you, and you'll rule over him."
 8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother, and when they were in the field, Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and killed him.
 9 And the Lord said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?"  And he said, "I don't know, am I my brother's keeper?"
 10 And he said, "What have you done?  The voice of your brother's blood shouts to me from the ground.
 11 And now you are cursed from the earth, that has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand,
 12 From now on, when you till the ground, it won't yield to you its strength, you'll be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth."
 13 And Cain said to the Lord, "My punishment is more than I can cope with.
 14 See, you've driven me out this day from the face of the earth, and from your face I'll be hidden, and I'll be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth, and everyone that finds me shall kill me."
 15 And the Lord said to him, "Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold."  And the Lord set a mark on Cain, so that no one finding him would kill him.
 16 And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and lived in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
 17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and bore Enoch, and he built a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
 18 And to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad begat Mehujael, and Mehujael begat Methusael, and Methusael begat Lamech.
 19 And Lamech took to himself two wives, the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
 20 And Adah bore Jabal, he was the father of those who live in tents, and of such as have cattle.
 21 And his brother's name was Jubal, he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
 22 And Zillah, also bore Tubalcain, an instructor of every craftsman in brass and iron, and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.
 23 And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, "Hear my voice, you wives of Lamech, listen to my speech, for I've killed a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
 24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy sevenfold."
 25 And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and called his name Seth, "For God," said she, "has appointed me another child instead of Abel, whom Cain killed."
 26 And to Seth also there was born a son, and he called his name Enos, then men began to call on the name of the Lord.

___Genesis chapter 5

___Genesis chapter 6
 1 And when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,
 2 The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were attractive, and they took them wives of all that they chose.
 3 And the Lord said, "My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh, yet his days shall be one hundred twenty years."
 4 There were giants in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men that were of old, men of renown.
 5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
 6 And the Lord regretted that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
 7 And the Lord said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man, and animals, and the creeping thing, and the birds of the air, for I regret that I've made them."
 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.
 9 These are the generations of Noah, Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
 10 And Noah fathered three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
 11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
 12 And God looked at the earth, and see, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted his way on the earth.
 13 And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them, and see, I will destroy them with the earth.
 14 Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood, you shall make rooms in the ark, and shall pitch it inside and outside with pitch.
 15 And these are the dimensions that you'll make for the ark, The length of the ark shall be four hundred fifty feet, the width of it seventy five feet, and the height of it forty five feet.
 16 You shall make a window in the ark, and in eighteen inches you'll finish the top, and the door of the ark you'll set in the side of it, with lower, second, and third stories you shall make it.
 17 And see, I, even I, do bring a flood of water on the earth, to destroy all flesh, in which is the breath of life, from under heaven, and everything that is in the earth shall die.
 18 But with you I'll establish my covenant, and you'll come into the ark, you, and your sons, and your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
 19 And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every kind into the ark, to keep them alive with you, they shall be male and female.
 20 Of birds after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.
 21 And take to yourself of all food that is eaten, and you shall gather it to yourself, and it shall be for food for you, and for them.
 22 And Noah did that, according to all that God commanded him, that's what he did.

___Genesis chapter 7
 1 And the Lord said to Noah, "You come, and all your family into the ark, for I've seen you as righteous before me in this generation.
 2 Of every clean animal you shall take to yourself by sevens, the male and his female, and of animals that aren't clean by two, the male and his female.
 3 Of birds of the air also by sevens, the male and the female, to keep seed alive on the face of all the earth.
 4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living substance that I've made I'll destroy from off the face of the earth.
 5 And Noah did according to all that the Lord commanded him.
 6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was on the earth.
 7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
 8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth,
 9 Two and two went in to Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
 10 And after seven days, the waters of the flood were on the earth.
 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
 12 And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
 13 In the same day Noah entered, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark,
 14 They, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every kind.
 15 And they went in to Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, in which is the breath of life.
 16 And those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him, and the Lord shut him in.
 17 And the flood was on the earth forty days, and the waters increased, and lifted up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.
 18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark went on the surface of the waters.
 19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth, and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
 20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail, and the mountains were covered.
 21 And all flesh died that moved on the earth, both of birds, and of cattle, and of animals, and of every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man,
 22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.
 23 And every living substance was destroyed that was on the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven, and they were destroyed from the earth, and only Noah remained alive, and those who were with him in the ark.
 24 And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred fifty days.

___Genesis chapter 8
 1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark, and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters diminished,
 2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained,
 3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually, and after the end of one hundred fifty days the waters were much decreased.
 4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
 5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month, in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
 6 And at the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made,
 7 And he sent out a raven, that went out back and forth, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
 8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground,
 9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned to him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth, then he put out his hand, and took her, and pulled her to him into the ark.
 10 And he stayed yet seven more days, and again he sent out the dove out of the ark,
 11 And the dove came in to him in the evening, and see, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off, so Noah knew that the waters were gone from off the earth.
 12 And he stayed yet seven more days, and sent out the dove, which didn't return again to him anymore.
 13 And in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth, and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and see, the face of the ground was dry.
 14 And in the second month, on the twenty seventh day of the month, the earth was dried.
 15 And God spoke to Noah, saying,
 16 "Go out of the ark, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
 17 Take out with you every living thing that is with you, of all flesh, both of birds, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, so that they'll breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth."
 18 And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him,
 19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, and whatever creeps on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.
 20 And Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean beast, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
 21 And the Lord smelled a sweet odor, and the Lord said in his heart, "I won't again curse the ground anymore for man's sake, for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth, nor will I again strike anymore every living thing, as I have done.
 22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not stop."

___Genesis chapter 9
 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, and on every bird of the air, on all that moves on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea, into your hand they're delivered.
 3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you, like the green plant, I've given you all things.
 4 But flesh with the life of it, which is the blood of it, you shall not eat.
 5 And surely your blood of your lives I'll require, at the hand of every animal I'll require it, and at the hand of man, at the hand of every man's brother I'll require the life of man.
 6 Whoever sheds man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed, for in the image of God he made man.
 7 And you, be fruitful, and multiply, bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply in it."
 8 And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
 9 "And I, see, I establish my covenant with you, and with your descendants after you,
 10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the birds, of the cattle, and of every animal of the earth with you, from all that go out of the ark, to every animal of the earth.
 11 And I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh won't anymore be cut off by the waters of a flood, and there won't anymore be a flood to destroy the earth."
 12 And God said, "This is the token of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
 13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
 14 And when I bring a cloud over the earth, the bow shall be seen in the cloud,
 15 And I will remember my covenant, that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
 16 And the bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look at it, so that I'll remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
 17 And God said to Noah, "This is the token of the covenant, that I've established between me and all flesh that is on the earth."
 18 And the sons of Noah, that went out of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, and Ham is the father of Canaan.
 19 These are the three sons of Noah, and the whole earth was overspread from them.
 20 And Noah began to be a vinedresser, and he planted a vineyard,
 21 And he drank some of the wine, and got drunk, and he was uncovered inside his tent.
 22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
 23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father, and their faces were backward, and they didn't see their father's nakedness.
 24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.
 25 And he said, "Cursed is Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be to his brothers."
 26 And he said, "Blessed be the Lord God of Shem, and Canaan shall be his servant.
 27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall live in the tents of Shem, and Canaan shall be his servant."
 28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred fifty years.
 29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and he died.

___Genesis chapter 10
 1 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and to them sons were born after the flood.
 2 The sons of Japheth, Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
 3 And the sons of Gomer, Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
 4 And the sons of Javan, Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
 5 The islands of the Gentiles were divided in their lands by these, everyone according to his language, after their families, in their nations.
 6 And the sons of Ham, Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
 7 And the sons of Cush, Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha, and the sons of Raamah, Sheba, and Dedan.
 8 And Cush begat Nimrod, he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
 9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord, that's why it's said, "Even like Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord."
 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
 11 Asshur went out from that land and built Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
 12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah, that's a large city.
 13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
 14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.
 15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,
 16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
 17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
 18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite, and afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread around.
 19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you come to Gerar, to Gaza, as you go to Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even to Lasha.
 20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their countries, and in their nations.
 21 To Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, to him were children born.
 22 The children of Shem, Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
 23 And the children of Aram, Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
 24 And Arphaxad fathered Salah, and Salah fathered Eber.
 25 And two sons were born to Eber, the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.
 26 And Joktan fathered Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
 27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
 28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
 29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab, all these were the sons of Joktan.
 30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go to Sephar, a mountain of the east.
 31 These are the sons of Shem, according to their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.
 32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations, and by these the nations were divided in the earth after the flood.

___Genesis chapter 11
 1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
 2 And as they journeyed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
 3 And they said to each other, "Go to, let's make brick, and burn them thoroughly."  And they had brick for stone, and they had slime for mortar.
 4 And they said, "Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top will reach to heaven, and let us make for ourselves a name, so we won't be scattered around on the face of the whole earth."
 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, that the children of men built.
 6 And the Lord said, "See, it's one people, and they all have one language, and this they begin to do, and now nothing will be restrained from them, that they have imagined to do.
 7 Go to, let us go down, and there confuse their language, so they won't understand each other’s speech."
 8 So the Lord scattered them around from there on the face of all the earth, and they stopped building the city.
 9 That's why it's called Babel, because the Lord confounded the language of all the earth there, and from there the Lord scattered them around on the face of all the earth.
 10 These are the generations of Shem, Shem was a hundred years old, and fathered Arphaxad two years after the flood,
 11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
 12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and fathered Salah,
 13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred three years, and begat sons and daughters.
 14 And Salah lived thirty years, and fathered Eber,
 15 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred three years, and begat sons and daughters.
 16 And Eber lived four and thirty years, and fathered Peleg,
 17 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
 18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and fathered Reu,
 19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
 20 And Reu lived thirty two years, and fathered Serug,
 21 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
 22 And Serug lived thirty years, and fathered Nahor,
 23 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
 24 And Nahor lived twenty nine years, and fathered Terah,
 25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah one hundred nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.
 26 And Terah lived seventy years, and fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
 27 Now these are the generations of Terah, Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran, and Haran fathered Lot.
 28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
 29 And Abram and Nahor took wives, the name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
 30 But Sarai was barren, she had no child.
 31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan, and they came to Haran, and lived there.
 32 And the days of Terah were two hundred five years, and Terah died in Haran.

___Genesis chapter 12
 1 Now the Lord had said to Abram, "Get out of your country, and from your relatives, and from your father's house, to a land that I will show you,
 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, and you'll be a blessing.
 3 And I will bless those who bless you, and curse him that curses you, and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.
 4 So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken to him, and Lot went with him, and Abram was seventy five years old when he went out of Haran.
 5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gotten, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran, and they went out to go into the land of Canaan, and into the land of Canaan they went.
 6 And Abram passed through the land to the place of Sichem, to the plain of Moreh.  And the Canaanites were then in the land.
 7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said, "I'll give this land to your descendants," and he built an altar to the Lord there, who appeared to him.
 8 And he moved from there to a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east, and he built an altar there to the Lord, and called on the name of the Lord.
 9 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.
 10 And there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down into Egypt to live there temporarily, for the famine was grievous in the land.
 11 And when he was close to entering Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, "See, I know that you are a beautiful woman,
 12 Therefore when the Egyptians see you, they'll say, This is his wife, and they'll kill me, but they'll let you live.
 13 Please say you're my sister, so that it will be well with me for your sake, and my soul shall live because of you."
 14 And when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was beautiful.
 15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and brought her before Pharaoh, and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
 16 And he treated Abram well for her sake, and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.
 17 And the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
 18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, "What have you done to me?  Why didn't you tell me she was your wife?
 19 Why did you say, She is my sister?  I might have taken her as my wife, now therefore here's your wife, take her, and go your way."
 20 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

___Genesis chapter 13
 1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
 2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
 3 And he went on his journeys from the south to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai,
 4 To the place of the altar that he had made there at the first, and Abram called on the name of the Lord there.
 5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
 6 And the land was not able to bear them, so that they could live together, for their substance was great, so that they couldn't live together.
 7 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle, and the Canaanites and the Perizzites lived then in the land.
 8 And Abram said to Lot, "Let there be no strife, please, between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen, for we are brothers.
 9 Isn't the whole land before you?  Separate yourself, please, from me, if you take the left hand, then I'll go to the right, or if you go to the right hand, then I'll go to the left."
 10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
 11 Then Lot chose all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east, and they separated themselves from each other.
 12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
 13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord very much.
 14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, "Lift up now your eyes, and look from the place where you are northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward,
 15 For all the land that you see, I'll give it to you, and to your descendants forever.
 16 And I will make your seed like the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then shall your seed also be numbered.
 17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the width of it, for I will give it to you."
 18 Then Abram moved his tent, and came and lived in the plain of Mamre, that is in Hebron, and built an altar to the Lord there.

___Genesis chapter 14
 1 And in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations,
 2 These made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
 3 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
 4 They served Chedorlaomer twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
 5 And in the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings that were with him, and struck the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
 6 And the Horites in their Mount Seir, to Elparan, which is by the wilderness.
 7 And they returned, and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and struck all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that lived in Hazezontamar.
 8 And the king of Sodom went out, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar,) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim,
 9 With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, four kings with five.
 10 And the vale of Siddim was full of slime pits, and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there, and those who remained fled to the mountain.
 11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.
 12 And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
 13 And someone that had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew, for he lived in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner, and these were allies with Abram.
 14 And when Abram heard that his brother had been taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred eighteen of them, and pursued them to Dan.
 15 And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and struck them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
 16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
 17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
 18 And Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine, and he was the priest of the most high God.
 19 And he blessed him, and said, "Blessed be Abram by the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth,
 20 And blessed be the most high God, who has given your enemies into your hand."  And he gave him tithes of all.
 21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, and take the goods to yourself."
 22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted up my hand to the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
 23 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelace, and that I will not take anything that is yours, so you won't say, I've made Abram rich,
 24 Except for that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, let them take their portion."

___Genesis chapter 15
 1 After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, "Don't be afraid, Abram, I am your shield, and your very great reward."
 2 And Abram said, "Lord God, what will you give me, since I'm childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?"
 3 And Abram said, "See, to me you've given no child, and see, someone born in my house is my heir."
 4 And the word of the Lord came to him, saying, "This won't be your heir, but he that shall come out of your own body shall be your heir."
 5 And he brought him outside, and said, "Look now toward heaven, and count the stars, if you're able," and he said to him, "So shall your seed be."
 6 And he believed the Lord, and he counted it to him for righteousness.
 7 And he said to him, "I am the Lord that brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it."
 8 And he said, "Lord God, how will I know that I'll inherit it?"
 9 And he said to him, "Take me a heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon."
 10 And he took all these, and divided them in the middle, and laid each piece one against another, but the birds he didn't divide.
 11 And when the birds came down on the carcasses, Abram drove them away.
 12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell on Abram, and see, a horror of great darkness fell on him.
 13 And he said to Abram, "Know of a surety that your descendants shall be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them, and they shall afflict them four hundred years,
 14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, I will judge, and afterward they'll come out with great substance.
 15 And you'll go to your ancestors in peace, you'll be buried at a good old age.
 16 But in the fourth generation they'll come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full."
 17 And when the sun went down, and it was dark, there was a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
 18 On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your seed I've given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,
 19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
 20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
 21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."

___Genesis chapter 16
 1 Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no children, and she had a handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
 2 And Sarai said to Abram, "See, the Lord has restrained me from bearing, Please go in to my maid, perhaps I can obtain children by her."  And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
 3 And Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar, her Egyptian maid, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.
 4 And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived, and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
 5 And Sarai said to Abram, "My wrong be on you, I have given my maid into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes, the Lord judge between me and you."
 6 But Abram said to Sarai, "Your maid is in your hand, do with her as it pleases you."  And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
 7 And the angel of the Lord found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.
 8 And he said, "Hagar, Sarai's maid, where did you come from?  And where will you go?"  And she said, "I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai."
 9 And the angel of the Lord said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands."
 10 And the angel of the Lord said to her, "I will multiply your seed exceedingly, so that it shall not be numbered for multitude."
 11 And the angel of the Lord said to her, "See, you're with child, and shall bear a son, and shall call his name Ishmael, because the Lord has heard your affliction.
 12 And he will be a wild man, his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand will be against him, and he'll live in the presence of all his brothers."
 13 And she called the name of the Lord that spoke to her, "You, God, see me," for she said, "Have I also here looked after him that sees me?"
 14 So the well was called Beerlahairoi, see, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
 15 And Hagar bore Abram a son, and Abram called his son's name, that Hagar bore, Ishmael.
 16 And Abram was eighty six years old, when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.

___Genesis chapter 17
 1 And when Abram was ninety nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, "I am the Almighty God, walk before me, and be perfect.
 2 And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you very much."
 3 And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,
 4 "As for me, see, my covenant is with you, and you'll be a father of many nations.
 5 Nor shall your name anymore be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham, for I've made you a father of many nations.
 6 And I will make you very fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of you.
 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and you, and your children after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you, and to your children after you.
 8 And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land in which you're a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession, and I will be their God."
 9 And God said to Abraham, "You shall keep my covenant therefore, you, and your descendants after you in their generations.
 10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you, and your seed after you, every male child among you shall be circumcised.
 11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be a token of the covenant between me and you.
 12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money from any stranger, that is not of your descendants.
 13 He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with your money, must be circumcised, and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
 14 And the uncircumcised male child whose flesh of his foreskin hasn't been circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people, he has broken my covenant."
 15 And God said to Abraham, "As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
 16 And I will bless her, and give you a son also from her, yes, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations, kings of people shall be of her."
 17 Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, "Shall a child be born to him that is a hundred years old?  And shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?"
 18 And Abraham said to God, "O that Ishmael might live before you!"
 19 And God said, "Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed, and you'll call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
 20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you, see, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly.  Twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
 21 But my covenant I'll establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this set time in the next year."
 22 And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
 23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on the same day, as God had said to him.
 24 And Abraham was ninety nine years old, when he got circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
 25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
 26 Abraham was circumcised and Ishmael his son on the same day.
 27 And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money from the stranger, were circumcised with him.

___Genesis chapter 18
 1 And the Lord appeared to him in the plains of Mamre, and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day,
 2 And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and see, three men stood by him, and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
 3 And said, "My Lord, if now I have found favor in your sight, please don't go away from your servant,
 4 Let a little water, please, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree,
 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort you your hearts, after that you'll go, 'cause that's why you've come to your servant."  And they said, "Do what you've said."
 6 And Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah, and said, "Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes on the hearth."
 7 And Abraham ran to the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it to a young man, and he hurried to prepare it.
 8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf that he'd prepared, and set it before them, and he stood by them under the tree, and they ate.
 9 And they said to him, "Where is your wife Sarah?"  And he said, "See, in the tent."
 10 And he said, "I will certainly return to you according to the time of life, and see, Sarah your wife shall have a son."  And Sarah heard it in the tent door, that was behind him.
 11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age, and Sarah had stopped having menstrual periods.
 12 Therefore Sarah laughed inside herself, saying, "After I've grown shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?"
 13 And the Lord said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, who am old?
 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord?  At the time appointed I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son."
 15 Then Sarah denied, saying, "I didn't laugh," 'cause she was afraid.  And he said, "No, you laughed."
 16 And the men rose up from there, and looked toward Sodom, and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
 17 And the Lord said, "Shall I hide from Abraham the thing that I'll do,
 18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
 19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do what's right, so the Lord will bring on Abraham that which he has spoken about him."
 20 And the Lord said, "Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous,
 21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done entirely according to the cry of it, that has come to me, and if not, I will know."
 22 And the men turned their faces from there, and went toward Sodom, but Abraham stood yet before the Lord.
 23 And Abraham drew near, and said, "Will you also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
 24 Possibly there are fifty righteous in the city, will you also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are there?
 25 That be far from you to do like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, and that the righteous should be like the wicked, that be far from you, Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?"
 26 And the Lord said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous in the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes."
 27 And Abraham answered and said, "See now, I've taken on me to speak to the Lord, who am but dust and ashes,
 28 Possibly there shall lack five of the fifty righteous, will you destroy all the city for lack of five?"  And he said, "If I find forty five there, I will not destroy it."
 29 And he spoke to him yet again, and said, "Possibly there shall be forty found there."  And he said, "I will not do it for forty's sake."
 30 And he said to him, "Oh let the Lord not be angry, and I will speak, Possibly there shall thirty be found there."  And he said, "I will not do it, if I find thirty there."
 31 And he said, "See now, I have taken on me to speak to the Lord, Possibly there shall be twenty found there."  And he said, "I will not destroy it for twenty's sake."
 32 And he said, "Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once, possibly ten shall be found there."  And he said, "I will not destroy it for ten's sake."
 33 And the Lord went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.

___Genesis chapter 19
 1 And two angels went to Sodom at evening, and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom, and seeing them, Lot rose up to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground,
 2 And he said, "See now, my lords, turn in, please, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and you shall rise up early, and go on your ways."  And they said, "No, we'll stay in the street all night."
 3 And he greatly urged them, and they turned in to him, and entered into his house, and he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
 4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both old and young, all the people from every quarter,
 5 And they called to Lot, and said to him, "Where are the men that came into your house tonight?  Bring them out to us, so we can know them."
 6 And Lot went out at the door to them, and shut the door after him,
 7 And said, "Please, brothers, don't do so wickedly.
 8 See now, I have two daughters that are virgins, please let me bring them out to you, and do to them as seems good in your eyes, but to these men do nothing, for that's why they've come under the shadow of my roof."
 9 And they said, "Stand back."  And they said again, "This one fellow came in to stay for awhile, and now he wants to be a judge, now we'll deal worse with you, than with them."  And they pressed severely on the man, Lot, and nearly broke the door.
 10 But the men put out their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.
 11 And they struck the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
 12 And the men said to Lot, "Do you have any here besides?  Son in law, and your sons, and your daughters, and whatever you have in the city, bring them out of this place,
 13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them has grown great before the face of the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it."
 14 And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law, who married his daughters, and said, "Up, get out of this place, for the Lord will destroy this city."  But he seemed like someone kidding around to his sons in law.
 15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hurried Lot, saying, "Get up, take your wife, and your two daughters, that are here, so you won't be consumed in the sin of the city."
 16 And while he lingered, the men took hold of his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, the Lord being merciful to him, and they brought him out, and set him outside the city.
 17 And when they had brought them out, he said, "Escape for your life, don't look behind you, nor stay you in all the plain, escape to the mountain, so you won't be consumed.
 18 And Lot said to them, "Oh, not so, my Lord,
 19 See now, your servant has found grace in your sight, and you've magnified your mercy, that you've shown me in saving my life, and I can't escape to the mountain, or some evil might happen to me, and I die,
 20 See now, this city is near to flee to, and it's a little one, Oh, let me escape to it, (isn't it a little one?) and my soul shall live."
 21 And he said to him, "See, I have accepted you concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for which you've spoken.
 22 Hurry up, escape to it, for I can't do anything until you get there."  Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
 23 The sun had risen on the earth when Lot entered Zoar.
 24 Then the Lord rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven,
 25 And he destroyed those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.
 26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
 27 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord,
 28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and saw, and see, the smoke of the country went up like the smoke of a furnace.
 29 And when God destroyed the cities of the plain, God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the destruction, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.
 30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he was afraid to live in Zoar, and he lived in a cave, he and his two daughters.
 31 And the firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth,
 32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, so we can preserve seed of our father."
 33 And they made their father drink wine that night, and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father, and he didn't notice when she lay down, nor when she got up.
 34 And on the next day, the firstborn said to the younger, "See, I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine tonight also, and you go in, and lie with him, so we can preserve seed of our father."
 35 And they made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger got up, and lay with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down, nor when she got up.
 36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot pregnant by their father.
 37 And the firstborn bore a son, and called his name Moab, the same is the father of the Moabites to this day.
 38 And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Benammi, the same is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.

___Genesis chapter 20
 1 And Abraham journeyed from there toward the south country, and lived between Kadesh and Shur, and stayed for awhile in Gerar.
 2 And Abraham said about Sarah his wife, "She is my sister," and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
 3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, "See, you are but a dead man, for the woman that you've taken, for she is a man's wife."
 4 But Abimelech had not come near her, and he said, "Lord, will you kill also a righteous nation?
 5 Didn't he say to me, She is my sister?  And she, even she herself said, He is my brother, in the integrity of my heart and innocence of my hands I have done this."
 6 And God said to him in a dream, "Yes, I know that you did this in the integrity of your heart, for I also withheld you from sinning against me, therefore I didn't allow you to touch her.
 7 Now therefore restore to the man his wife, for he is a prophet, and he'll pray for you, and you'll live, and if you don't restore her, know you that you'll surely die, you, and all that are yours."
 8 Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears, and the men were very afraid.
 9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, "What have you done to us?  And how have I offended you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin?  You've done deeds to me that ought not to be done."
 10 And Abimelech said to Abraham, "What did you see, that caused you to do this thing?"
 11 And Abraham said, "Because I thought, surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they'll kill me for my wife's sake.
 12 And yet indeed she is my sister, she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she became my wife.
 13 And when God caused me to wander from my father's house, I said to her, this is your kindness that you'll show me, everywhere we go, say about me, he's my brother."
 14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and men servants, and women servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.
 15 And Abimelech said, "See, my land is before you, live where it pleases you."
 16 And to Sarah he said, "See, I've given your brother a thousand pieces of silver, see, he is to you a covering of the eyes, to all that are with you, and with all others, thus she was reproved."
 17 So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants, and they bore children.
 18 For the Lord had tightly closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.

___Genesis chapter 21
 1 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did to Sarah as he had spoken.
 2 For Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
 3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
 4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
 5 And Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him.
 6 And Sarah said, "God has made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me."
 7 And she said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would have given children suck?  For I have born him a son in his old age."
 8 And the child grew, and was weaned, and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.
 9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, that she had born to Abraham, mocking.
 10 So she said to Abraham, "Throw out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac."
 11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
 12 And God said to Abraham, "Let it not be grievous in your sight because of the lad, and because of your bondwoman, in all that Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice, for in Isaac shall your descendants be called.
 13 And also of the son of the bondwoman I will make a nation, because he is your descendant.
 14 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away, and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
 15 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.
 16 And she went, and sat down opposite him a good way off, like a bowshot, for she said, "Let me not see the death of the child."  And she sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and cried.
 17 And God heard the voice of the lad, and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar?  Don't be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.
 18 Get up, lift up the lad, and hold him in you hand, for I will make him a great nation."
 19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water, and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad a drink.
 20 And God was with the lad, and he grew, and lived in the wilderness, and became an archer.
 21 And he lived in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
 22 And at that time, Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do,
 23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that you won't deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son, but according to the kindness that I've done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you've been staying."
 24 And Abraham said, "I will swear."
 25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
 26 And Abimelech said, "I don't know who did this, nor did you tell me, nor did I hear about it until today."
 27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech, and both of them made a covenant.
 28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
 29 And Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs mean that you've set by themselves?"
 30 And he said, "These seven ewe lambs you'll take from my hand, so they'll be a witness for me, that I've dug this well."
 31 So he called that place Beersheba, because both of them swore there.
 32 Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba, then Abimelech got up, and Phichol the chief captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
 33 And Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
 34 And Abraham lived in the Philistines' land many days.

___Genesis chapter 22
 1 And after these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham," and he said, "See, I'm here."
 2 And he said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and get into the land of Moriah, and offer him there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains that I'll tell you about."
 3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and split the wood for the burnt offering, and got up, and went to the place about which God had told him.
 4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
 5 And Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the ass, and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and return to you."
 6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and they went both together.
 7 And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father," and he said, "Here I am, my son."  And he said, "See the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"
 8 And Abraham said, "My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering," so they went both together.
 9 And they came to the place that God had told him about, and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar on the wood.
 10 And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
 11 And the angel of the Lord called to him out of heaven, and said, "Abraham, Abraham," and he said, "Here I am."
 12 And he said, "Don't lay your hand on the lad, and don't do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you haven't withheld your son, your only son from me."
 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns, and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.
 14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh, as it is said to this day, In the mountain of the Lord it shall be seen.
 15 And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham out of heaven the second time,
 16 And said, "By myself I've sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,
 17 That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed like the stars of the heaven, and like the sand which is on the sea shore, and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies,
 18 And in your descendants shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."
 19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba, and Abraham lived at Beersheba.
 20 And after these things, Abraham was told, "Behold, Milcah, she has also born children to your brother Nahor,
 21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
 22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
 23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah, these eight did Milcah bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
 24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bore also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah."

___Genesis chapter 23
 1 And Sarah was one hundred twenty seven years old, these were the years of the life of Sarah.
 2 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba, the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan, and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
 3 And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,
 4 "I am a stranger and a visitor with you, give me a possession of a burying place with you, so I can bury my dead out of my sight."
 5 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
 6 "Hear us, my lord, you are a mighty prince among us, in the choice of our tombs bury your dead, none of us shall withhold from you his tomb, so you can bury your dead."
 7 And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, to the children of Heth.
 8 And he communed with them, saying, "If it is your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and speak for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,
 9 To give me the cave of Machpelah, that he has, that is in the end of his field, for as much money as it is worth he shall give it to me for a possession of a burying place among you.
 10 And Ephron lived among the children of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,
 11 "No, my lord, hear me, I give you the field and the cave that is in it, I give it to you, in the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you, bury your dead."
 12 And Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.
 13 And he spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, "But if you'll give it, please listen to me, I'll give you money for the field, take it from me, and I'll bury my dead there."
 14 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
 15 "My lord, listen to me, the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and you?  Bury therefore your dead."
 16 And Abraham listened to Ephron, and Abraham weighed the silver for Ephron, that he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current money with the merchant.
 17 And the field of Ephron, that was in Machpelah, that was before Mamre, the field, and the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the borders there, were made sure
 18 To Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
 19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre, the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan.
 20 And the field, and the cave that is in it, were made sure to Abraham for a possession of a burying place by the sons of Heth.

___Genesis chapter 24
 1 And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age, and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things.
 2 And Abraham said to his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, "Please put your hand under my thigh,
 3 And I'll make you swear by the Lord, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that you won't take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I live,
 4 But you'll go to my country, and to my kin, and take a wife for my son Isaac."
 5 And the servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman won't be willing to follow me to this land, should I then take your son back to the land you came from?"
 6 And Abraham said to him, "Beware that you don't take my son there again.
 7 The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kin, and who spoke to me, and that swore to me, saying, to your seed I'll give this land, he shall send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.
 8 And if the woman isn't willing to follow you, then you'll be clear from this oath, only don't take my son there again."
 9 And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning that matter.
 10 And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed, for all the goods of his master were in his hand, and he got up, and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.
 11 And he made his camels to kneel down outside the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, at the time that women go out to draw water.
 12 And he said, "O Lord God of my master Abraham, please send me good speed this day, and show kindness to my master Abraham.
 13 See, I stand here by the well of water, and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water,
 14 And let it be, that the young woman to whom I shall say, Please let down your pitcher so I can drink, and she'll say, Drink, and I'll give your camels water also, let her be the one that you've appointed for your servant Isaac, and thereby I'll know that you've shown kindness to my master."
 15 And before he had done speaking, see, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher on her shoulder.
 16 And the young woman was beautiful to look at, a virgin, no man had known her, and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
 17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, "Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher."
 18 And she said, "Drink, my lord," and she hurried, and let down her pitcher on her hand, and gave him drink.
 19 And when she had done giving him drink, she said, "I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking."
 20 And she hurried, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.
 21 And the man wondering at her held his peace, to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.
 22 And as the camels had finished drinking, the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold,
 23 And said, "Whose daughter are you?  Please tell me, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge in?"
 24 And she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, that she bore to Nahor."
 25 She said also to him, "We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in."
 26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord.
 27 And he said, "Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hasn't left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth, I being in the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master's brothers."
 28 And the young woman ran, and told those of her mother's house these things.
 29 And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban, and Laban ran out to the man, to the well.
 30 And when he saw the earring and bracelets on his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, "This is what the man said to me, he came to the man, and, see, he stood by the camels at the well."
 31 And he said, "Come in, you blessed of the Lord, why do you stand outside?  For I've prepared the house, and room for the camels."
 32 And the man came into the house, and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men's feet that were with him.
 33 And food was set before him to eat, but he said, "I won't eat, until I have told my errand."  And he said, "Tell us."
 34 And he said, "I am Abraham's servant.
 35 And the Lord has blessed my master greatly, and he has become great, and he has given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
 36 And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old, and to him he has given all that he has.
 37 And my master made me swear, saying, You shall not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live,
 38 But you shall go to my father's house, and to my kin, and take a wife for my son."
 39 And I said to my master, "Perhaps the woman won't follow me."
 40 And he said to me, "The Lord, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way, and you shall take a wife for my son of my kin, and of my father's house,
 41 Then you'll be clear from this oath, when you come to my kin, if they won't give you one, you'll be clear from my oath.
 42 And I came this day to the well, and said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way that I go,
 43 See, I stand by the well of water, and when the virgin comes out to draw water, and I say to her, Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink,
 44 And she says to me, Drink yourself, and I will also draw for your camels, let her be the woman whom the Lord has appointed for my master's son.
 45 And before I had done speaking in my heart, see, Rebekah came out with her pitcher on her shoulder, and she went down to the well, and drew water, and I said to her, Let me drink, please.
 46 And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and I will give your camels drink also, so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.
 47 And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter are you?  And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him, and I put the earring on her ear, and the bracelets on her hands.
 48 And I bowed down my head, and worshipped the Lord, and blessed the Lord God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter to his son.
 49 And now if you will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me, and if not, tell me, so I can turn to the right hand, or to the left."
 50 Then Laban and Bethuel answered, "The thing proceeds from the Lord, we can't speak to you bad or good.
 51 See, Rebekah is before you, take her, and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the Lord has spoken."
 52 And when Abraham's servant heard their words, he worshipped the Lord, bowing himself to the earth.
 53 And the servant brought out jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah, he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.
 54 And they ate and drink, he and the men that were with him, and waited all night, and they rose up in the morning, and he said, "Send me away to my master."
 55 And her brother and her mother said, "Let the young woman remain with us a few days, at least ten, after that she'll go."
 56 And he said to them, "Don't hinder me, seeing the Lord has prospered my way, send me away so I can go to my master."
 57 And they said, "We will call the young woman, and ask her."
 58 And they called Rebekah, and said to her, "Are you willing to go with this man?"  And she said, "I will go."
 59 And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.
 60 And they blessed Rebekah, and said to her, "You are our sister, be the mother of thousands of millions, and let your seed possess the gate of those who hate them."
 61 And Rebekah got up, and her young women, and they rode on the camels, and followed the man, and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
 62 And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi, for he lived in the south country.
 63 And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at evening, and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and the camels were coming.
 64 And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she got off the camel.
 65 For she had said to the servant, "What man is this that walks in the field to meet us?"  And the servant had said, "It is my master, so she took a veil, and covered herself."
 66 And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.
 67 And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and he loved her, and Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.

___Genesis chapter 25
 1 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
 2 And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
 3 And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan.  And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
 4 And the sons of Midian, Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah.  All these were the children of Keturah.
 5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
 6 But to the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.
 7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, one hundred seventy five years.
 8 Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.
 9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, that is before Mamre,
 10 The field that Abraham bought from the sons of Heth, Abraham was buried there, and Sarah his wife.
 11 And after the death of Abraham, God blessed his son Isaac, and Isaac lived by the well Lahairoi.
 12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham,
 13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations, the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth, and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
 14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
 15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah,
 16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles, twelve princes according to their nations.
 17 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, one hundred thirty seven years, and he gave up the ghost and died, and was gathered to his people.
 18 And they lived from Havilah to Shur, that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria, and he died in the presence of all his brothers.
 19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son, Abraham fathered Isaac,
 20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah as wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
 21 And Isaac entreated the Lord for his wife, because she was barren, and the Lord was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
 22 And the children struggled together inside her, and she said, "If it be so, why am I this way?"  And she went to inquire of the Lord.
 23 And the Lord said to her, "Two nations are in your womb, and two kinds of people shall be separated from your belly, and the one people shall be stronger than the other people, and the elder shall serve the younger.
 24 And when her days to receive deliverance were fulfilled, see, there were twins in her womb.
 25 And the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment, and they called his name Esau.
 26 And after that his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau's heel, and his name was called Jacob, and Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
 27 And the boys grew, and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field, and Jacob was a plain man, living in tents.
 28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his venison, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
 29 And Jacob made pottage, and Esau came from the field, and he was faint,
 30 And Esau said to Jacob, "Feed me, please, with that same red pottage, for I am faint," that's why he was called Edom.
 31 And Jacob said, "Sell me this day your birthright."
 32 And Esau said, "See, I am at the point to die, and what profit shall this birthright do to me?"
 33 And Jacob said, "Swear to me this day," and he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils, and he ate and drank, and rose up, and went his way, thus Esau despised his birthright.

___Genesis chapter 26
 1 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham.  And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines to Gerar.
 2 And the Lord appeared to him, and said, "Don't go down into Egypt, live in the land that I shall tell you about,
 3 Live for a while in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you, for to you, and to your descendants, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath that I swore to Abraham your father,
 4 And I will make your descendants to multiply like the stars of heaven, and will give to your descendants all these countries, and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed,
 5 Because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws."
 6 And Isaac lived in Gerar,
 7 And the men of the place asked him about his wife, and he said, "She is my sister," for he was afraid to say, "She is my wife," or, said he, "The men of the place might kill me for Rebekah," because she was beautiful to look at.
 8 And when he had been there a long time, Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out of a window, and saw, and Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.
 9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, "See, she is surely your wife, and why did you say She is my sister?"  And Isaac said to him, "Because I said, So I won't die for her."
 10 And Abimelech said, What is this you've done to us?  One of the people might lightly have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us.
 11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, "He that touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death."
 12 Then Isaac planted in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold, and the Lord blessed him.
 13 And the man became great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great,
 14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants, and the Philistines envied him.
 15 For all the wells that his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with dirt.
 16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, "Go from us, for you are much mightier than we are."
 17 And Isaac departed from there, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and lived there.
 18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water, that they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham, and he called their names the same as his father had named them.
 19 And Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
 20 And the herdmen of Gerar strove with Isaac's herdmen, saying, "The water is ours," and he called the name of the well Esek, because they strove with him.
 21 And they dug another well, and strove for that also, and he called the name of it Sitnah.
 22 And he moved from there, and dug another well, and they didn't strive for that, and he called the name of it Rehoboth, and he said, "For now the Lord has made room for us, and we'll be fruitful in the land."
 23 And he went up from there to Beersheba.
 24 And the Lord appeared to him the same night, and said, "I am the God of Abraham your father, don't be afraid, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham's sake."
 25 And he built an altar there, and called on the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent there, and there Isaac's servants dug a well.
 26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
 27 And Isaac said to them, "Why do you come to me, since you hate me, and have sent me away from you?"
 28 And they said, "We saw certainly that the Lord was with you, and we said, Let there now be an oath between us, between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you,
 29 That you'll do us no hurt, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace, you are now the blessed of the Lord."
 30 And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
 31 And they got up in the morning, and swore to each other, and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
 32 And Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well that they had dug, and said to him, "We've found water."
 33 And he called it Shebah, therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.
 34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite,
 35 Which were a grief of mind to Isaac and to Rebekah.

___Genesis chapter 27
 1 And when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he couldn't see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said to him, "My son," and he said to him, "See, I am here."
 2 And he said, "See now, I am old, I don't know the day of my death,
 3 Now therefore please take, your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison,
 4 And make me savory meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, so I can eat, so my soul can bless you before I die."
 5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spoke to Esau his son.  And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
 6 And Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, "See, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
 7 Bring me venison, and make me savory meat, so I can eat, and bless you before the Lord before my death.
 8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to what I command you.
 9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from there two good kids of the goats, and I will make them savory meat for your father, such as he loves,
 10 And you'll bring it to your father, so he can eat, and bless you before his death."
 11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "See, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man,
 12 My father perhaps will feel me, and I'll seem to him to be a deceiver, and I'll bring a curse on me, and not a blessing."
 13 And his mother said to him, "On me be your curse, my son, only obey my voice, and go fetch them for me."
 14 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother, and his mother made savory meat, such as his father loved.
 15 And Rebekah took good clothes of her eldest son Esau, that were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son,
 16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
 17 And she gave the savory meat and the bread, that she'd prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
 18 And he came to his father, and said, "My father, and he said, Here am I, who are you, my son?"
 19 And Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn, I've done as you told me, please get up, sit and eat of my venison, so your soul will bless me."
 20 And Isaac said to his son, "How is it that you've found it so quickly, my son?"  And he said, "Because the Lord your God brought it to me."
 21 And Isaac said to Jacob, "Please come near, so I can feel you, my son, whether you are my very son Esau or not."
 22 And Jacob went near to Isaac his father, and he felt him, and said, "The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau."
 23 And he didn't discern him, because his hands were hairy, like his brother Esau's hands, so he blessed him.
 24 And he said, "Are you my very son Esau?"  And he said, I am.
 25 And he said, "Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, so my soul can bless you."  And he brought it near to him, and he ate, and he brought him wine, and he drank.
 26 And his father Isaac said to him, "Come near now, and kiss me, my son."
 27 And he came near, and kissed him, and he smelled the smell of his clothes, and blessed him, and said, "See, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that the Lord has blessed,
 28 Therefore God give you of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine,
 29 Let people serve you, and nations bow down to you, be lord over your brothers, and let your mother's sons bow down to you, cursed is everyone that curses you, and blessed be he that blesses you."
 30 And as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob had yet barely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
 31 And he also had made savory meat, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, "Let my father get up, and eat of his son's venison, so your soul can bless me."
 32 And Isaac his father said to him, "Who are you?"  And he said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."
 33 And Isaac trembled very much, and said, "Who?  Where is he that has taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before you came, and have blessed him?  Yes, and he shall be blessed."
 34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and very  bitter cry, and said to his father, "Bless me, even me also, O my father."
 35 And he said, "Your brother came with subtlety, and has taken away your blessing."
 36 And he said, "Is not he rightly named Jacob?  For he has supplanted me these two times, he took away my birthright, and see, now he has taken away my blessing."  And he said, "Haven't you reserved a blessing for me?"
 37 And Isaac answered and said to Esau, "See, I've made him your lord, and all his brothers I've given to him for servants, and with corn and wine I've sustained him, and what shall I do now to you, my son?"
 38 And Esau said to his father, "Do you have only one blessing, my father?  Bless me also, O my father."  And Esau lifted up his voice, and cried.
 39 And Isaac his father answered and said to him, "See, your dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above,
 40 And by your sword shall you live, and shall serve your brother, and it shall be when you shall have the dominion, that you'll break his yoke off your neck."
 41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, "The days of mourning for my father are at hand, then I'll kill my brother Jacob."
 42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah, and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, "See, your brother Esau, concerning you, comforts himself, purposing to kill you.
 43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice, and get up, flee to Laban my brother to Haran,
 44 And stay with him a few days, until your brother's fury turns away,
 45 Until your brother's anger turns away from you, and he forgets what you've done to him, then I will send, and fetch you from there, why should I be deprived of you both in one day?"
 46 And Rebekah said to Isaac, "I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth, if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these that are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?"

___Genesis chapter 28
 1 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said to him, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
 2 Get up, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father, and take a wife from there of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.
 3 And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, so that you'll become a multitude of people;
 4 And give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your seed with you, so that you'll inherit the land in which you're a stranger, that God gave to Abraham."
 5 And Isaac sent away Jacob, and he went to Padanaram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
 6 When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Padanaram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him instructions, saying, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,"
 7 And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and went to Padanaram,
 8 And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan didn't please Isaac his father,
 9 Then Esau went to Ishmael, and added to the wives that he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.
 10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
 11 And he stopped at a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set, and he took a stone from there, and placed it for his pillows, and laid down there to sleep.
 12 And he dreamed, and see a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven, and the angels of God were going up and down on it.
 13 And see, the Lord stood above it, and said, "I am the Lord God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac, the land on which you're lying, I'll give it to you, and to your seed,
 14 And your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you'll spread out to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south, and in you and in your seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
 15 And see, I'm with you, and will keep you in all places where you go, and will bring you again into this land, for I won't leave you, until I've done what I've told you about."
 16 And Jacob awoke from his sleep, and he said, "Surely the Lord is in this place, and I didn't know it."
 17 And he was afraid, and said, "How dreadful this place is!  This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven."
 18 And Jacob got up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on the top of it.
 19 And he called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.
 20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in the way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothes to wear,
 21 So that I come again to my father's house in peace, then shall the Lord be my God,
 22 And this stone, that I've set for a pillar, shall be God's house, and of all that you give me I will surely give a tenth to you."

___Genesis chapter 29
 1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land of the people of the east.
 2 And he looked, and see, a well in the field, and see, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it, for out of that well they watered the flocks, and a large stone was on the well's mouth.
 3 And all the flocks were gathered there, and they rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone back on the well's mouth in its place.
 4 And Jacob said to them, "My brothers, where are you from?"  And they said, "We're from Haran."
 5 And he said to them, "Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?"  And they said, "We know him."
 6 And he said to them, "Is he well?"  And they said, "He is well, and see, Rachel his daughter is coming with the sheep."
 7 And he said, "See, it is yet high day, and it's not time for the cattle to be gathered together, water the sheep, and go and feed them."
 8 And they said, "We can't, until all the flocks are gathered together, and 'til they roll the stone from the well's mouth, then we water the sheep."
 9 And while he yet talked with them, "Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she kept them."
 10 And when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
 11 And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and cried.
 12 And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son, and she ran and told her father.
 13 When Laban heard the news of Jacob his sister's son, he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house.  And he told Laban all these things.
 14 And Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh."  And he stayed with him the space of a month.
 15 And Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my brother, should you therefore serve me for nothing?  Tell me, what shall your wages be?"
 16 And Laban had two daughters, the name of the older one was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
 17 Leah was tender eyed, but Rachel was beautiful and well favored.
 18 And Jacob loved Rachel, and said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter."
 19 And Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you, than for me to give her to another man, stay with me."
 20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her.
 21 And Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, so I can go in to her."
 22 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.
 23 And in the evening, he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him, and he went in to her.
 24 And Laban gave to his daughter Leah, Zilpah his maid for a handmaid.
 25 And in the morning, see, it was Leah, and he said to Laban, "What is this that you've done to me?  Didn't I serve with you for Rachel?  Why then have you deceived me?"
 26 And Laban said, "It must not be so done in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.
 27 Fulfill her week, and we will give you this also for the service that you'll serve with me yet seven other years."
 28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week, and he gave him Rachel his daughter as wife also.
 29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid.
 30 And he went in also to Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.
 31 And when the Lord saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.
 32 And Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben, for she said, "Surely the Lord has looked at my affliction, now therefore my husband will love me."
 33 And she conceived again, and bore a son, and said, "Because the Lord has heard that I was hated, he has therefore given me this son also," and she called his name Simeon.
 34 And she conceived again, and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have born him three sons," therefore his name was called Levi.
 35 And she conceived again, and bore a son, and she said, "Now I'll praise the Lord," therefore she called his name Judah, and stopped bearing.

___Genesis chapter 30
 1 And when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, "Give me children, or else I die."
 2 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in God's place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"
 3 And she said, "Here's my maid Bilhah, go in to her, and she shall bear on my knees, so I can also have children by her."
 4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.
 5 And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
 6 And Rachel said, "God has judged me, and has also heard my voice," and has given me a son, therefore she called his name Dan.
 7 And Bilhah, Rachel's maid, conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.
 8 And Rachel said, "With great wrestlings, I've wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed," and she called his name Naphtali.
 9 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her to Jacob as wife.
 10 And Zilpah, Leah's maid, bore Jacob a son.
 11 And Leah said, "A troop is coming," and she called his name Gad.
 12 And Zilpah Leah's maid bore Jacob a second son.
 13 And Leah said, "I am happy, for the daughters will call me blessed," and she called his name Asher.
 14 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah.  Then Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me, some of your son's mandrakes."
 15 And she said to her, "Is it a small matter that you've taken my husband?  And do you want to take my son's mandrakes, too?"  And Rachel said, "Therefore he shall lie with you to night for your son's mandrakes."
 16 And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, "You must come in to me, for surely I have hired you with my son's mandrakes."  And he lay with her that night.
 17 And God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob the fifth son.
 18 And Leah said, "God has given me my wages, because I've given my maid to my husband," and she called his name Issachar.
 19 And Leah conceived again, and bore Jacob the sixth son.
 20 And Leah said, "God has given me a good dowry, now my husband will live with me, because I have born him six sons," and she called his name Zebulun.
 21 And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
 22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.
 23 And she conceived, and bore a son, and said, "God has taken away my reproach,"
 24 And she called his name Joseph, and said, "The Lord shall add to me another son."
 25 And when Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, so I can go to my own place, and to my country.
 26 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, and let me go, for you know my service that I've done for you."
 27 And Laban said to him, "Please, if I have found favor in your eyes, stay, for I have learned by experience that the Lord has blessed me for your sake."
 28 And he said, "Appoint me your wages, and I will give it."
 29 And he said to him, "You know how I have served you, and how your cattle were with me.
 30 For it was little that you had before I came, and it has now increased to a multitude, and the Lord has blessed you since my coming, and now how shall I provide for my own house also?"
 31 And he said, "What shall I give you?"  And Jacob said, "Don't give me anything, if you'll do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep your flock,
 32 I will go through all your flock to day, removing from there all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats, and of such shall be my hire.
 33 So shall my righteousness answer for me in the future, when it shall come for my hire before your face, each one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me."
 34 And Laban said, "O.K., we'll do that."
 35 And he removed that day the he goats that were ringstraked and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and each one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.
 36 And he set three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
 37 And Jacob took rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree, and made white streaks in them, and made the white appear that was in the rods.
 38 And he set the rods that he had made before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, so they would conceive when they came to drink.
 39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and produced cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
 40 And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban, and he put his own flocks by themselves, and didn't put them with Laban's cattle.
 41 And whenever the stronger cattle conceived, Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, so they would conceive among the rods.
 42 But when the cattle were feeble, he didn't put them in, so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
 43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.

___Genesis chapter 31
 1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, "Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and of what was our father's he has gotten all this glory."
 2 And Jacob saw the face of Laban, and see, it was not toward him as before.
 3 And the Lord said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers, and to your kin, and I will be with you."
 4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
 5 And said to them, "I see your father's face, that it is not toward me like before, but the God of my father has been with me.
 6 And you know that with all my power I've served your father.
 7 And your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times, but God didn't allow him to hurt me.
 8 If he said, The speckled shall be your wages, then all the cattle bore speckled, and if he said, The ringstraked shall be your wages, then all the cattle bore ringstraked.
 9 Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
 10 And at the time that the cattle conceived, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and see, the rams that jumped up on the cattle were ringstraked, speckled, and grisled.
 11 And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, Jacob, And I said, I am here.
 12 And he said, Lift up your eyes now, and see, all the rams that jump up on the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled, for I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
 13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar, and where you vowed a vow to me, now get up, get out of this land, and return to the land of your kin."
 14 And Rachel and Leah answered him, "Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
 15 Aren't we counted strangers by him?  For he has sold us, and has also quite devoured our money.
 16 For all the riches that God has taken from our father, that is 
ours, and our children's, now then, do whatever God has said to you."
 17 Then Jacob got up, and set his sons and his wives on camels,
 18 And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods that he had gotten, the cattle of his getting, that he had gotten in Padanaram, to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.
 19 And Laban went to shear his sheep, and Rachel had stolen the images that were her father's.
 20 And Jacob sneaked away unaware to Laban the Syrian, in that he didn't tell him that he was going.
 21 So he fled with all that he had, and he got up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward mount Gilead.
 22 And someone told Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled.
 23 And he took his brothers with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey, and they overtook him in Mount Gilead.
 24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, "Make sure you don't speak to Jacob either good or bad."
 25 Then Laban overtook Jacob.  Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain, and Laban with his brothers pitched in mount Gilead.
 26 And Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done, that you've stolen away unaware to me, and carried away my daughters, like captives taken by the sword?
 27 Why did you flee away secretly, and steal away from me, and didn't tell me, so I could send you away with laughter, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?
 28 And haven't allowed me to kiss my sons and my daughters?  You've now done foolishly in so doing.
 29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, Make sure you don't speak to Jacob either good or bad.
 30 And now, though you want to be gone, because you severely long for your father's house, yet why have you stolen my gods?"
 31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, "Because I was afraid, for I said, Perhaps you would take your daughters from me by force.
 32 With whomever you find your gods, let him not live, before our brothers discern what is yours with me, and take it.  For Jacob didn't know that Rachel had stolen them.
 33 And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two maidservants' tents, but he didn't find them.  Then he went out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.
 34 Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel's furniture, and sat on them.  And Laban searched all the tent, but didn't find them.
 35 And she said to her father, "Let it not displease my lord that I can't rise up before you, for the custom of women is on me."  And he searched, but didn't find the images.
 36 And Jacob was angry, and spoke sharply to Laban, and Jacob said to Laban, "What is my trespass?  What is my sin, that you've so hotly pursued after me?
 37 Now that you've searched all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff?  Set it here before my brothers and your brothers, so they can judge between us both.
 38 These twenty years I've been with you, your ewes and your she goats haven't cast their young, and the rams of your flock I haven't eaten.
 39 That which was torn by beasts I didn't bring to you, I bore the loss of it, you required it from my hand, whether stolen in the daytime, or stolen at night.
 40 Thus I was, in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes.
 41 Thus have I been twenty years in your house, I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your cattle, and you've changed my wages ten times.
 42 Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely you would have now sent me away empty.  God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and reprimanded you last night."
 43 And Laban answered and said to Jacob, "These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that you see is mine, and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children which they have given birth to?
 44 Now therefore come, let's make a covenant, me and you, and let it be for a witness between me and you."
 45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
 46 And Jacob said to his brothers, "Gather stones," and they took stones, and made a heap, and they ate there on the heap.
 47 And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha, but Jacob called it Galeed.
 48 And Laban said, "This heap is a witness between me and you this day."  Therefore the name of it was called Galeed,
 49 And Mizpah, for he said, "The Lord watch between me and you, when we are absent from each other.
 50 If you afflict my daughters, or if you take other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us, see, God is witness between me and you."
 51 And Laban said to Jacob, "Look at this heap, and look at this pillar, that I have piled up between me and you,
 52 This heap is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and that you shall not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
 53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us."  And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
 54 Then Jacob offered sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brothers to eat bread, and they ate bread, and stayed all night in the mountain.
 55 And early in the morning Laban got up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them, and Laban departed, and returned to his place.

___Genesis chapter 32
 1 And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
 2 And when Jacob saw them, he said, "This is God's host," and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
 3 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother to the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
 4 And he commanded them, saying, "Here's what to say to my lord Esau, your servant Jacob says, I've been staying with Laban until now,
 5 And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and women servants, and I have sent to tell my lord, so I'll find grace in your sight."
 6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and also he's coming to meet you, and four hundred men with him."
 7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed, and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands,
 8 And said, "If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the other company that is left shall escape."
 9 And Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the Lord who said to me, Return to your country, and to your kin, and I will deal well with you,
 10 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, that you've shown to your servant, for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I've become two bands.
 11 Deliver me, please, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau, for I fear him, so he won't come and strike me, and the mother with the children.
 12 And you said, I will surely do you good, and make your seed like the sand of the sea, that can't be numbered for multitude."
 13 And he lodged there that same night, and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother,
 14 Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
 15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.
 16 And he delivered them into the hands of his servants, every drove by themselves, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and put a space between drove and drove."
 17 And he commanded the one in front, saying, "When Esau my brother meets you, and asks you, Whose are you?  And where are you going?  And whose are these before you?"
 18 Then you shall say, "They are your servant Jacob's, it is a present sent to my lord Esau, and see, he is behind us, also."
 19 And so did he command the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, "Here's what to say to Esau, when you find him.
 20 And say also, See, your servant Jacob is behind us."  For he said, "I will pacify him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face, perhaps he will accept it from me."
 21 So the present went over before him, and he lodged that night with the group.
 22 And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two women servants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.
 23 And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over what he had.
 24 And Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day.
 25 And when he saw that he didn't prevail against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
 26 And he said, "Let me go, for the day is breaking."  And he said, "I won't let you go, unless you bless me."
 27 And he said to him, "What is your name?"  And he said, "Jacob."
 28 And he said, "Your name shall no more be called Jacob, but Israel, for like a prince you have power with God and with men, and have prevailed."
 29 And Jacob asked him, and said, "Please tell me your name."  And he said, "Why do you ask for my name?"  And he blessed him there.
 30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
 31 And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose on him, and he walked with difficulty with his thigh.
 32 Therefore the children of Israel don't eat of the sinew that shrank, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew that shrank.

___Genesis chapter 33
 1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and see, Esau came, and with him four hundred men.  And he divided the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two handmaids.
 2 And he put the handmaids and their children in front, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
 3 And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
 4 And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him, and they cried.
 5 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children, and said, "Who are those with you?"  And he said, "The children that God has graciously given your servant."
 6 Then the handmaidens came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves.
 7 And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed themselves, and afterward Joseph came near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
 8 And he said, "What did you mean by all this drove that I met?"  And he said, "These are to find grace in the sight of my lord."
 9 And Esau said, "I have enough, my brother, keep what you have for yourself."
 10 And Jacob said, "No, please, if I have now found grace in your sight, then receive my present from my hand, for therefore I have seen your face, as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.
 11 Please take my blessing that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough."  And he urged him, and he took it.
 12 And he said, "Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before you."
 13 And he said to him, "My lord knows that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me, and if men overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.
 14 Let my lord, please, pass over before his servant, and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that go before me and the children are able to endure, until I come to my lord to Seir."
 15 And Esau said, "Let me now leave with you some of the folk that are with me."  And he said, "No need for that.  Let me find grace in the sight of my lord."
 16 So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
 17 And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built a house, and made booths for his cattle, therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
 18 And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram, and pitched his tent before the city.
 19 And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, from the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred pieces of money.
 20 And he erected there an altar, and called it Elelohe-Israel.

___Genesis chapter 34
 1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, that she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
 2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.
 3 And his soul stuck with Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman, and spoke kindly to the young woman.
 4 And Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as wife."
 5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter, now his sons were with his cattle in the field, and Jacob said nothing until they had come.
 6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to commune with him.
 7 And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard it, and the men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had made foolishness in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter, which thing ought not to be done.
 8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, "The soul of my son Shechem longs for your daughter, please give her to him as wife.
 9 And make marriages with us, and give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.
 10 And you'll live with us, and the land shall be before you, live and trade in it, and get yourselves possessions in it."
 11 And Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find grace in your eyes, and what you shall say to me I will give.
 12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as you shall say to me, but give me the young woman as wife."
 13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
 14 And they said to them, "We can't do this thing, to give our sister to someone uncircumcised, for that would be a reproach to us,
 15 But in this will we consent to you, If you will be as we are, that every male of you gets circumcised,
 16 Then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will live with you, and we will become one people.
 17 But if you will not listen to us, to get circumcised; then we'll take our daughter, and we'll be gone."
 18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
 19 And the young man didn't defer to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he was more honorable than all the house of his father.
 20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
 21 These men are peaceable with us, therefore let them live in the land, and trade in it, for the land, see, it is large enough for them, let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
 22 Only in this will the men consent to us to live with us, to be one people, if every male among us gets circumcised, like they are circumcised.
 23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours?  Only let us consent to them, and they will live with us.
 24 And to Hamor and to Shechem his son, all that went out of the gate of his city listened, and every male got circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
 25 And on the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took each man his sword, and came on the city boldly, and killed all the males.
 26 And they killer Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.
 27 The sons of Jacob came on the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
 28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and what was in the city, and what was in the field,
 29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives they took captive, and spoiled all that was in the house.
 30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites, and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and kill me, and I shall be destroyed, I and my house."
 31 And they said, "Should he deal with our sister as with a prostitute?"

___Genesis chapter 35
 1 And God said to Jacob, "Get up, go up to Bethel, and live there, and make an altar to God there, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother."
 2 Then Jacob said to his household, and to all that were with him, "Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments,
 3 And let us get up, and go to Bethel, and I will make an altar to God there, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way that I went."
 4 And they gave Jacob all the strange gods that were in their hand, and all their earrings that were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the oak that was by Shechem.
 5 And they journeyed, and the terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn't pursue after the sons of Jacob.
 6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.
 7 And he built there an altar, and called the place Elbethel, because God appeared to him there, when he fled from the face of his brother.
 8 But Deborah, Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak, and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
 9 And God appeared to Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him.
 10 And God said to him, "Your name is Jacob, your name shall not anymore be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name, and he called his name Israel."
 11 And God said to him, "I am God Almighty, be fruitful and multiply, a nation and a company of nations shall be of you, and kings shall come out of your loins,
 12 And the land that I gave Abraham and Isaac, I'll give it to you, and to your seed after you I will give the land."
 13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him.
 14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, a pillar of stone, and he poured a drink offering on it, and he poured oil on it.
 15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.
 16 And they journeyed from Bethel, and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
 17 And when she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, "Don't be afraid, you'll have this son also."
 18 And as her soul was in departing, (for she died), she called his name Benoni, but his father called him Benjamin.
 19 And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.
 20 And Jacob set a pillar on her grave, that is the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.
 21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.
 22 And when Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine, and Israel heard it.  Now the sons of Jacob were twelve,
 23 The sons of Leah, Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun,
 24 The sons of Rachel, Joseph, and Benjamin,
 25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid, Dan, and Naphtali,
 26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid, Gad, and Asher, these are the sons of Jacob, that were born to him in Padanaram.
 27 And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre, to the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac were visitors.
 28 And the days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
 29 And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered to his people, being old and full of days, and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

___Genesis chapter 36

___Genesis chapter 37
 1 And Jacob lived in the land in which his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.
 2 These are the generations of Jacob.  Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers, and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph brought to his father their evil report.
 3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors.
 4 And when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him, and couldn't speak peaceably to him.
 5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers, and they hated him yet more.
 6 And he said to them, "Please listen to this dream that I've dreamed,
 7 For see, we were binding sheaves in the field, and see, my sheaf got up, and also stood upright, and see, your sheaves stood around, and bowed to my sheaf."
 8 And his brothers said to him, "Shall you indeed reign over us?  Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?"  And they hated him yet more for his dreams, and for his words.
 9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, See, I have dreamed another dream, and, see, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars bowed to me.
 10 And he told it to his father, and to his brothers, and his father rebuked him, and said to him, "What is this dream that you've dreamed?  Shall I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow down ourselves to you to the earth?"
 11 And his brothers envied him, but his father observed the saying.
 12 And his brothers went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
 13 And Israel said to Joseph, "Don't your brothers feed the flock in Shechem?  Come, and I will send you to them."  And he said to him, "Here I am."
 14 And he said to him, "Go, please, see whether it is well with your brothers, and well with the flocks, and bring me word again."  So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
 15 And a certain man found him, and see, he was wandering in the field, and the man asked him, saying, "What are you looking for?"
 16 And he said, "I'm looking for my brothers, tell me, please, where they feed their flocks."
 17 And the man said, "They've gone from here, for I heard them say, Let's go to Dothan."  And Joseph went after his brothers, and found them in Dothan.
 18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near, they conspired against him to kill him.
 19 And they said to each other, "See, this dreamer is coming.
 20 Come now therefore, and let us kill him, and throw him into some pit, and we'll say, Some evil beast has devoured him, and we shall see what will become of his dreams."
 21 And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands, and said, "Let's not kill him."
 22 And Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood, but throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hand on him," so he could rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to his father again.
 23 And when Joseph had come to his brothers, they stripped Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colors that was on him,
 24 And they took him, and threw him into a pit, and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
 25 And they sat down to eat bread, and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and see, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.
 26 And Judah said to his brothers, "What profit is it if we kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
 27 Come, and let's sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let our hand not be on him, for he is our brother and our flesh."  And his brothers were content.
 28 Then Midianite merchantmen passed by, and they lifted Joseph up out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver, and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
 29 And Reuben returned to the pit, and see, Joseph was not in the pit, and he tore his clothes.
 30 And he returned to his brothers, and said, "The child is not, and I, where shall I go?"
 31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood,
 32 And they sent the coat of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, "This have we found, know now whether it's your son's coat or not."
 33 And he knew it, and said, "It is my son's coat, an evil beast has devoured him, Joseph is no doubt torn in pieces."
 34 And Jacob tore his clothes, and dressed in sackcloth, and mourned for his son many days.
 35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and he said, "For I will go down into the grave to my son mourning."  Thus his father cried for him.
 36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, and captain of the guard.

___Genesis chapter 38
 1 And at that time, Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
 2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah, and he took her, and went in to her.
 3 And she conceived, and bore a son, and he named him Er.
 4 And she conceived again, and bore a son, and she named him Onan.
 5 And she conceived yet again, and bore a son, and named him Shelah, and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
 6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.
 7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord killed him.
 8 And Judah said to Onan, "Go in to your brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to your brother."
 9 And Onan knew that the seed wouldn't be his, and when he went in to his brother's wife, he spilled it on the ground, so that he wouldn't give seed to his brother.
 10 And the thing that he did displeased the Lord, so he killed him also.
 11 Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter in law, "Remain a widow in your father's house, until Shelah my son is grown," for he said, "So that he won't perhaps die also, like his brothers did."  And Tamar went and lived in her father's house.
 12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died, and Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
 13 And it was told to Tamar, saying, "See your father in law goes up to Timnath to shear his sheep."
 14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered herself with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath, for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given to him as wife.
 15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a prostitute, because she had covered her face.
 16 And he turned to her by the way, and said, "Go to, please, let me come in to you, (for he didn't know that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What will you give me, so you can come in to me?"
 17 And he said, "I will send you a kid from the flock."  And she said, "Will you give me a pledge, 'til you send it?"
 18 And he said, "What pledge shall I give you?"  And she said, "Your signet, and your bracelets, and your staff that is in your hand."  And he gave it to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
 19 And she arose, and went away, and laid her vail off, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
 20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman's hand, but he didn't find her.
 21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, "Where is the prostitute, that was openly by the way side?"  And they said, "There was no prostitute in this place."
 22 And he returned to Judah, and said, "I can't find her, and also the men of the place said, that there was no prostitute in this place."
 23 And Judah said, "Let her receive it, so we won't be ashamed, see, I sent this kid, and you haven't found her."
 24 And about three months afterward, it was told Judah, saying, "Tamar your daughter in law has played the harlot, and also, see, she is with child by whoredom."  And Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burnt."
 25 When she was brought out, she sent to her father in law, saying, "By the man, whose these are, I am with child," and she said, "Discern, please, whose are these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff."
 26 And Judah acknowledged them, and said, "She has been more righteous than I, because I didn't give her to Shelah my son."  And he knew her again no more.
 27 And in the time of her travail, see, twins were in her womb.
 28 And when she travailed, the one put out his hand, and the midwife took and bound on his hand a red thread, saying, "This one came out first."
 29 And as he pulled back his hand, see, his brother came out, and she said, "How have you broken out?  This breach is on you," therefore he was named Pharez.
 30 And afterward his brother came out, that had the red thread on his hand, and he was named Zarah.

___Genesis chapter 39
 1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hands of the Ishmeelites, who had brought him down there.
 2 And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man, and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
 3 And his master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
 4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him, and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
 5 And from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, the Lord blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake, and the blessing of the Lord was on all that he had in the house, and in the field.
 6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and he didn't know anything he had, except the bread that he ate.  And Joseph was an attractive person, and well favored.
 7 And after these things, his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph, and she said, "Lie with me."
 8 But he refused, and said to his master's wife, "See, my master doesn't know what is with me in the house, and he has committed all that he has to my hand,
 9 There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife, how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"
 10 And as she spake to Joseph day by day, he didn't listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
 11 And about this time, Joseph went into the house to do his business, and there were none of the men of the house there inside.
 12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, "Lie with me," and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got out.
 13 And when she saw that he'd left his garment in her hand, and had fled,
 14 She called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, "See, he has brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us, he came in to me to lie with me, and I shouted with a loud voice,
 15 And when he heard me lift up my voice and shout, he left his garment with me, and fled, and got out."
 16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
 17 And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, "The Hebrew servant, that you brought to us, came in to me to mock me,
 18 And as I lifted up my voice and shouted, he left his garment with me, and fled out."
 19 And when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, "This is what your servant did to me, his anger was kindled."
 20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were bound, and he was there in the prison.
 21 But the Lord was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
 22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison, and whatever they did there, he was the doer of it.
 23 The keeper of the prison looked not to anything that was under his hand, because the Lord was with him, and whatever he did, the Lord made it to prosper.

___Genesis chapter 40
 1 And after these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
 2 And Pharaoh was angry against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
 3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
 4 And the captain of the guard put them in Joseph's care, and he served them, and they continued a while in ward.
 5 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, that were bound in the prison.
 6 And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked at them, and see, they were sad.
 7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"
 8 And they said to him, "We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it."  And Joseph said to them, "Don't interpretations belong to God?  Please tell me the dreams."
 9 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, see, a vine was before me,
 10 And in the vine were three branches, and it was as though it budded, and its blossoms shot out.  And the clusters of it produced ripe grapes,
 11 And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand."
 12 And Joseph said to him, "This is the interpretation of it, The three branches are three days,
 13 Yet within three days Pharaoh shall lift up your head, and restore you to your place, and you'll deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, like before when you were his butler.
 14 But think on me when it shall be well with you, and show kindness to me, please, and tell Pharaoh about me, and bring me out of this house,
 15 For indeed I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and here also I've done nothing deserving imprisonment."
 16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, "I also was in my dream, and, see, I had three white baskets on my head,
 17 And in the top basket there were all kinds of bakery products for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head."
 18 And Joseph answered and said, "This is the interpretation ot it, The three baskets are three days,
 19 Yet within three days Pharaoh shall lift up your head from you, and shall hang you on a tree, and the birds shall eat your flesh from you."
 20 And the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, he made a feast to all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
 21 And he restored the chief butler to his butlership again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand,
 22 But he hung the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
 23 Yet the chief butler didn't remember Joseph, but forgot him.

___Genesis chapter 41
 1 And at the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamed, and see, he stood by the river.
 2 And see, out of the river came seven well favored kine and fat fleshed, and they fed in a meadow.
 3 And see, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favored and lean fleshed, and stood by the other kine on the bank of the river.
 4 And the ill favored and lean fleshed kine ate up the seven well favored and fat kine.  So Pharaoh awoke.
 5 And he slept and dreamed the second time, and see, seven ears of corn came up on one stalk, rank and good.
 6 And see, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprang up after them.
 7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears.  And Pharaoh awoke, and see, it was a dream.
 8 And in the morning his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men of it, and Pharaoh told them his dream, but there was no one that could interpret them to Pharaoh.
 9 Then the chief butler spoke to Pharaoh, saying, "I do remember my faults this day,
 10 Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in jail in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker,
 11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he, we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
 12 And there was there with us a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams, to each man according to his dream he interpreted.
 13 And as he interpreted to us, so it was, me he restored to my office, and him he hung."
 14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him in a hurry out of the dungeon, and he shaved himself, and changed his clothes, and came to Pharaoh.
 15 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one that can interpret it, and I have heard about you, that you can understand a dream to interpret it."
 16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, "It is not in me, God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace."
 17 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "In my dream, see, I stood on the bank of the river,
 18 And see, out of the river came seven kine, fat fleshed and well favored, and they fed in a meadow,
 19 And see, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favored and lean fleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness,
 20 And the lean and the ill favored kine ate up the first seven fat kine, 
 21 And when they had eaten them up, it couldn't be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ill favored, as at the beginning.  So I awoke.
 22 And I saw in my dream, and see, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good,
 23 And see, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprang up after them,
 24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears, and I told this to the magicians, but there was no one that could explain it to me."
 25 And Joseph said to Pharaoh, "The dream of Pharaoh is one, God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
 26 The seven good kine are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years, the dream is one.
 27 And the seven thin and ill favored kine that came up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.
 28 This is the thing that I've spoken to Pharaoh, What God is about to do he has shown to Pharaoh.
 29 See, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt,
 30 And there shall arise after them seven years of famine, and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine shall consume the land,
 31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land because of the famine following, for it shall be very bad.
 32 And because the dream was given to Pharaoh twice, it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly make it happen.
 33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
 34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years.
 35 And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and store up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities.
 36 And that food shall be for store to the land for the seven years of famine, that shall be in the land of Egypt, so the land is not destroyed by the famine."
 37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
 38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find such a man as this is, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?"
 39 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God has shown you all this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you are,
 40 You shall be over my house, and according to your word shall all my people be ruled, only in the throne will I be greater than you."
 41 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt."
 42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain around his neck,
 43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot that he had, and they shouted before him, "Bow the knee, and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt."
 44 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I am Pharaoh, and without you shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."
 45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah, and he gave him as wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah, priest of On.  And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
 46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt.  And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
 47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth produced by handfuls.
 48 And he gathered up all the food of the seven years, that were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities, the food of the field, that was around every city, he laid up in the cities.
 49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
 50 And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, that Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bore to him.
 51 And Joseph named the firstborn Manasseh, "For God," said he, "has made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house."
 52 And he named the second Ephraim, "For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction."
 53 And the seven years of plenteousness in the land of Egypt ended.
 54 And the seven years of drought began to come, according as Joseph had said, and the drought was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
 55 And when all the land of Egypt was hungry, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph, do what he tells you."
 56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth, And Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians, and the famine became severe in the land of Egypt.
 57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph to buy corn, because the famine was so severe in all lands.

___Genesis chapter 42
 1 Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, "Why do you look at each other?"
 2 And he said, "See, I've heard there is corn in Egypt, get down there, and buy for us from there, so we can live, and not die."
 3 And Joseph's ten brothers went down to buy corn in Egypt.
 4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob didn't send with his brothers, for he said, So that no mischief will happen to him.
 5 And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
 6 And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land, and Joseph's brothers came, and bowed themselves down before him with their faces to the earth.
 7 And Joseph saw his brothers, and he knew them, but made himself strange to them, and spoke roughly to them, and he said to them, "Where do you come from?"  And they said, "From the land of Canaan to buy food."
 8 And Joseph knew his brothers, but they didn't know not him.
 9 And Joseph remembered the dreams that he'd dreamed about them, and said to them, "You are spies, you've come to see the nakedness of the land."
 10 And they said to him, "No, my lord, your servants have come to buy food.
 11 We are all one man's sons, we are honest men, your servants are not spies."
 12 And he said to them, "No, you've come to see the nakedness of the land."
 13 And they said, "Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and see, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not."
 14 And Joseph said to them, "That is what I said to you, you are spies,
 15 Here's how you'll be tested, By the life of Pharaoh you won't go from here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
 16 Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, and you'll be kept in prison, so your words can be proven, whether there is any truth in you, or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you're spies."
 17 And he put them all together into jail three days.
 18 And Joseph said to them the third day, "This do, and live, for I fear God,
 19 If you're honest men, let one of your brothers be bound in the house of your prison, go, carry corn for the famine of your houses,
 20 But bring your youngest brother to me, so shall your words be verified, and you won't die."  And they did so.
 21 And they said to each other, "We are truly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he asked us, and we would not listen, that's why this distress has come on us."
 22 And Reuben answered them, saying, "Didn't I tell you, Don't sin against the child, and you wouldn't listen?  Therefore, see, his blood is required."
 23 And they didn't know that Joseph understood them, for he spoke to them by an interpreter.
 24 And he turned himself around from them, and cried, and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.
 25 Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the trip, and thus he did to them.
 26 And they loaded the corn on their donkeys, and departed from there.
 27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey food in the inn, he saw his money, for see, it was in his sack's mouth.
 28 And he said to his brothers, "My money is restored, and see, it is in my sack, and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying to each other, "What is this that God has done to us?"
 29 And they came to Jacob their father to the land of Canaan, and told him all that happened to them, saying,
 30 "The man, who is the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and thought we were there to spy on that nation.
 31 And we said to him, We are honest men, we are not spies,
 32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father, one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
 33 And the man, the lord of the country, said to us, Here's how I'll know that you are honest men, leave one of your brothers here with me, and take food for the famine of your households, and be gone,
 34 And bring your youngest brother to me, then I'll know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men, then I'll give you back your brother, and you'll traffic in the land."
 35 And as they emptied their sacks, see, every man's bundle of money was in his sack, and when both they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.
 36 And Jacob their father said to them, "You've bereaved me of my children, Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and you want to take Benjamin away, all these things are against me."
 37 And Reuben spoke to his father, saying, "Kill my two sons, if I don't bring him to you, deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him back you."
 38 And he said, "My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is left alone, if mischief happens to him on the way that you go, then you'll bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave."

___Genesis chapter 43
 1 And the famine was severe in the land.
 2 And when they had eaten up the corn that they had brought out of Egypt, their father said to them, "Go again, buy us a little food."
 3 And Judah spoke to him, saying, "The man did solemnly protest to us, saying, You won't see my face, unless your brother is with you.
 4 If you'll send our brother with us, we'll go down and buy you food,
 5 But if you won't send him, we won't go down, for the man said to us, you won't see my face, unless your brother is with you."
 6 And Israel said, "Why did you deal so badly with me, as to tell the man whether you had another brother?"
 7 And they said, "The man asked us directly about our condition, and about our kin, saying, Is your father still alive?  Do you have another brother?  And so we told him, could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?"
 8 And Judah said to Israel his father, "Send the lad with me, and we'll get up and go, so we can live, and not die, both we, and you, and also our little ones.
 9 I will be surety for him, from my hand you'll require him, if I don't bring him back to you, and set him before you, then let me bear the blame forever,
 10 For if we hadn't waited, by now we'd have returned the second time."
 11 And their father Israel said to them, If it must be so now, do this, take some of the best fruits in the land in your containers, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds,
 12 And take double money in your hand, and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand, perhaps it was an oversight,
 13 Take also your brother, and get up, go again to the man,
 14 And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, so that he'll send away your other brother, and Benjamin.  If I'm bereaved of my children, I'm bereaved."
 15 And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin, and got up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
 16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, "Bring these men home, and kill some meat, and make ready, for these men shall eat with me at noon."
 17 And the man did as Joseph said, and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
 18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house, and they said, "We're being brought in because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time, so he can seek occasion against us, and fall on us, and take us for bondmen, and our donkeys.
 19 And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,
 20 And said, "O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food,
 21 And when we came to the hotel, we opened our sacks, and see, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight, and we've brought it back in our hand.
 22 And we've brought other money brought down in our hands to buy food, we can't tell who put our money in our sacks."
 23 And he said, "Peace be to you, don't be afraid, your God, and the God of your father, has given you treasure in your sacks, I had your money."  And he brought Simeon out to them.
 24 And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet, and he gave their donkeys food.
 25 And they made ready the present for when Joseph came at noon, for they heard that they would eat bread there.
 26 And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present that was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
 27 And he asked them about their welfare, and said, "Is your father well, the old man about whom you spoke?  Is he still alive?"
 28 And they answered, "Your servant our father is in good health, he is still alive.  And they bowed down their heads.
 29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, "Is this your younger brother, about whom you spoke to me?  And he said, God be gracious to you, my son."
 30 And Joseph hurried, for he yearned for his brother, and he looked for a place to cry, and he entered into his room, and cried there.
 31 And he washed his face, and went out, and restrained himself, and said, "Bring bread."
 32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, who were with him, by themselves, because the Egyptians couldn't eat bread with the Hebrews, for that is an abomination to the Egyptians.
 33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth, and the men showed their surprise to each other.
 34 And he took and sent portions to them from before him, but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as any of theirs.  And they drank, and were merry with him.

___Genesis chapter 44
 1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, "Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth.
 2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money."  And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.
 3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their donkeys.
 4 And when they had gone out of the city, and not yet far off, Joseph said to his steward, "Up, follow after the men, and when you overtake them, say to them, Why have you repaid evil for good?
 5 Isn't this the cup in which my lord drinks, and by which he divines?  You've done evil in so doing."
 6 And he overtook them, and he spoke to them the same words.
 7 And they said to him, "Why does my lord say these words?  God forbid that your servants should do according to this thing,
 8 See, the money that we found in our sacks' mouths, we brought back to you out of the land of Canaan, how then could we steal out of your lord's house silver or gold?
 9 With whomever of your servants it is found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen."
 10 And he said, "Now also let it be according to your words, he with whom it is found shall be my servant, and you shall be blameless."
 11 Then every man speedily took down his sack to the ground, and opened their sacks.
 12 And he searched, and began at the eldest, and went to the youngest, and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
 13 Then they tore their clothes, and loaded their donkeys, and returned to the city.
 14 And Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, for he was still there, and they fell before him on the ground.
 15 And Joseph said to them, "What deed is this that you have done?  Don't you know that such a man as I can certainly divine?"
 16 And Judah said, "What shall we say to my lord?  What shall we speak?  Or how shall we clear ourselves?  God has found out the sin of your servants, see, we are my lord's servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup was found."
 17 And he said, "God forbid that I should do so, but the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant, and as for you, get you up in peace to your father."
 18 Then Judah came near to him, and said, "Oh my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord's ears, and let your anger not burn against your servant, for you are like Pharaoh.
 19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Have you a father, or a brother?
 20 And we said to my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one, and his brother is dead, and only he is left from his mother, and his father loves him.
 21 And you said to your servants, Bring him down to me, so I can see him.
 22 And we said to my lord, The lad can't leave his father, for if he would leave his father, his father would die.
 23 And you said to your servants, Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you'll see my face no more.
 24 And when we went up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
 25 And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food.
 26 And we said, We can't go down, if our youngest brother is with us, then we'll go down, for we can't see the man's face, unless our youngest brother is with us.
 27 And your servant my father said to us, you know that my wife bore me two sons,
 28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces, and I haven't seen him since,
 29 And if you take this also from me, and mischief happens to him, you'll bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
 30 Now therefore when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us, seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life,
 31 It when he sees that the lad is not with us, he'll die, and your servants shall bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to the grave.
 32 For your servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to you, then I shall bear the blame to my father forever.
 33 Now therefore, please, let your servant stay instead of the lad a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brothers.
 34 For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad is not with me?  So that I won't see the evil that shall come on my father."

___Genesis chapter 45
 1 Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all those who stood by him, and he shouted, "Cause every man to go out from me."  And no man stood with him, while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
 2 And he cried out loud, and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard.
 3 And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph, is my father still alive?"  And his brothers couldn't answer him, for they were troubled at his presence.
 4 And Joseph said to his brothers, "Please come near to me."  And they came near.  And he said, "I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
 5 Now therefore don't be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me into Egypt, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
 6 For these two years the famine has been in the land, and yet there are five years, in which there'll be no harvest.
 7 And God sent me before you to preserve you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
 8 So now it was not you that sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
 9 Hurry up, and go up to my father, and say to him, Thus says your son Joseph, God has made me lord of all Egypt, come down to me, don't wait,
 10 And you'll live in the land of Goshen, and you'll be near to me, you, and your children, and your children's children, and your flocks, and your herds, and all that you have,
 11 And I'll nourish you there, for there are still five years of famine, so that you, and your household, and all that you have, don't come to poverty.
 12 And see, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
 13 And you shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen, and you shall hurry and bring down my father here."
 14 And he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck, and cried, and Benjamin cried on his neck.
 15 Also he kissed all his brothers, and cried on them, and after that his brothers talked with him.
 16 And the news of it was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, "Joseph's brothers have come," and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
 17 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, "Do this, load your animals, and go, get youselves to the land of Canaan,
 18 And take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and you'll eat the fat of the land.
 19 Now you are commanded, do this, take wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
 20 Also don't worry about your stuff, for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours."
 21 And the children of Israel did so, and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
 22 To all of them he gave each man changes of clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of clothing.
 23 And he sent to his father like this, ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with corn and bread and meat for his father by the way.
 24 So he sent his brothers away, and they departed, and he said to them, "See that you don't have a falling out on the way."
 25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan to Jacob their father,
 26 And told him, saying, "Joseph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt."  And Jacob's heart fainted, for he didn't believe them.
 27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, that he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived,
 28 And Israel said, "It is enough, Joseph my son is still alive, I'll go and see him before I die."

___Genesis chapter 46
 1 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
 2 And God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob."  And he said, "Here I am."
 3 And he said, "I am God, the God of your father, don't be afraid to go down into Egypt, for I will make of you a great nation there,
 4 I will go down with you into Egypt, and I will also surely bring you up again, and Joseph shall put his hand on your eyes."
 5 And Jacob got up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons that Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
 6 And they took their cattle, and their goods, that they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob, and all his seed with him,
 7 His sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and he brought all his descendants with him into Egypt.
 8 And these are the names of the children of Israel, that went into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.
 9 And the sons of Reuben, Hanoch, and Phallu, and Hezron, and Carmi.
 10 And the sons of Simeon, Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitish woman.
 11 And the sons of Levi, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
 12 And the sons of Judah, Er, and Onan, and Shelah, and Pharez, and Zerah, but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan.  And the sons of Pharez were Hezron and Hamul.
 13 And the sons of Issachar, Tola, and Phuvah, and Job, and Shimron.
 14 And the sons of Zebulun, Sered, and Elon, and Jahleel.
 15 These are the sons of Leah, that she bore to Jacob in Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah, all the souls of his sons and his daughters were thirty three.
 16 And the sons of Gad, Ziphion, and Haggi, Shuni, and Ezbon, Eri, and Arodi, and Areli.
 17 And the sons of Asher, Jimnah, and Ishuah, and Isui, and Beriah, and Serah their sister, and the sons of Beriah, Heber, and Malchiel.
 18 These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob, sixteen souls.
 19 The sons of Rachel Jacob's wife, Joseph, and Benjamin.
 20 And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bore to him.
 21 And the sons of Benjamin were Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, and Naaman, Ehi, and Rosh, Muppim, and Huppim, and Ard.
 22 These are the sons of Rachel, that were born to Jacob, all the souls were fourteen.
 23 And the sons of Dan, Hushim.
 24 And the sons of Naphtali, Jahzeel, and Guni, and Jezer, and Shillem.
 25 These are the sons of Bilhah, that Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and she bore these to Jacob, all the souls were seven.
 26 All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, that came out of his body, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls were sixty six;
 27 And the sons of Joseph, that were born him in Egypt, were two souls, all the souls of the house of Jacob, that came into Egypt, were seventy.
 28 And he sent Judah before him to Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen.
 29 And Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and presented himself to him, and he fell on his neck, and cried on his neck a good while.
 30 And Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are still alive."
 31 And Joseph said to his brothers, and to his father's house, "I will go up, and show Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers, and my father's house, that were in the land of Canaan, have come to me,
 32 And the men are shepherds, for their trade has been to feed cattle, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.
 33 And when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What is your occupation?
 34 You shall say, your servants' trade has been about cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and also our fathers, so that you can live in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is thought to be dirty by the Egyptians."

___Genesis chapter 47
 1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, "My father and my brothers, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, have come out of the land of Canaan, and see, they are in the land of Goshen."
 2 And he took some of his brothers, five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
 3 And Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?"  And they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers."
 4 They said also to Pharaoh, "We have come to be visitors in the land, for your servants have no pasture for their flocks, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan, now therefore, please let your servants live in the land of Goshen."
 5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, "Your father and your brothers have come to you,
 6 The land of Egypt is before you, in the best of the land make your father and brothers to live, in the land of Goshen let them live, and if you know any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle."
 7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
 8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, "How old are you?"
 9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred thirty years, few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage."
 10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.
 11 And Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
 12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brothers, and all his father's household, with bread, according to their families.
 13 And there was no bread in all the land, for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted because of the famine.
 14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought, and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
 15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence?  For the money is gone."
 16 And Joseph said, "Give your cattle, and I will give you for your cattle, if there's no money."
 17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the donkeys, and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year.
 18 When that year had ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, "We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent, my lord also has our herds of cattle, there is not any left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands,
 19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land?  Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh, and give us seed, so we can live, and not die, so that the land won't be desolate."
 20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for each of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine prevailed over them, so the land became Pharaoh's.
 21 And as for the people, he moved them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end of it.
 22 Only the land of the priests he didn't buy, for the priests had a portion assigned to them by Pharaoh, and ate their portion that Pharaoh gave them, so they didn't sell their lands.
 23 Then Joseph said to the people, "See, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh, see, here is seed for you, and you shall plant the land.
 24 And in the harvest, you shall give one fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for those of your households, and for food for your little ones."
 25 And they said, "You've saved our lives, let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants."
 26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have one fifth, except the land of the priests only, that didn't become Pharaoh's.
 27 And Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen, and they had possessions in it, and grew, and multiplied very much.
 28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, so the whole age of Jacob was one hundred forty seven years.
 29 And the time came near for Israel to die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, "If now I have found grace in your sight, put, I pray you, your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me, please don't bury me, in Egypt,
 30 But I will lie with my fathers, and you'll carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace."  And he said, "I will do as you have said."
 31 And he said, "Swear to me."  And he swore to him.  And Israel bowed himself on the bed's head.

___Genesis chapter 48
 1 And after these things, someone told Joseph, "See, your father is sick," and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
 2 And someone told Jacob, and said, "See, your son Joseph is coming to you," and Israel strengthened himself, and sat on the bed.
 3 And Jacob said to Joseph, "God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
 4 And said to me, See, I will make you fruitful, and multiply you, and I will make of you a multitude of people, and will give this land to your seed after you for an everlasting possession.
 5 And now your two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, that were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine, like Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
 6 And your issue, that you beget after them, shall be yours, and shall be called after the name of their brothers in their inheritance.
 7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was but a little way to come to Ephrath, and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath, the same is Bethlehem."
 8 And Israel saw Joseph's sons, and said, "Who are these?"
 9 And Joseph said to his father, "They are my sons, whom God has given me in this place."  And he said, "Please bring them to me, and I will bless them."
 10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see.  And he brought them near to him, and he kissed them, and embraced them.
 11 And Israel said to Joseph, I had not thought to see your face, and, see, God has shown me also your seed.
 12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
 13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near to him.
 14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it on Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh was the firstborn.
 15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, "God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God that fed me all my life long to this day,
 16 The Angel who redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and let them grow into a multitude in the earth."
 17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him, and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.
 18 And Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father, for this is the firstborn, put your right hand on his head."
 19 And his father refused, and said, "I know it, my son, I know it, he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great, but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations."
 20 And he blessed them that day, saying, "In you shall Israel bless, saying, God make you like Ephraim and as Manasseh," and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
 21 And Israel said to Joseph, "See, I'm dying, but God shall be with you, and bring you again to the land of your fathers.
 22 Also I've given to you one portion above your brothers, that I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow."

___Genesis chapter 49
 1 And Jacob called to his sons, and said, "Gather yourselves together, so I can tell you what will happen to you in the last days.
 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, you sons of Jacob, and listen to your father Israel.
 3 Reuben, you're my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power,
 4 Unstable as water, you won't excel, because you went up to your father's bed, then you defiled it, he went up to my couch.
 5 Simeon and Levi are brothers, instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.
 6 O my soul, don't come into their secret, to their assembly, my honor, don't be united, for in their anger they killed a man, and in their self will they dug down a wall.
 7 Cursed be their anger, for it was fierce and it was cruel, I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.
 8 Judah, you are he whom your brothers shall praise, your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies, your father's children shall bow down before you.
 9 Judah is a lion's whelp, from the prey, my son, you have gone up, he stooped down, he couched like a lion, and like an old lion, who shall rouse him up?
 10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to him shall the gathering of the people be.
 11 Tying his foal to the vine, and his ass's colt to the choice vine, he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes,
 12 His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
 13 Zebulun shall live at the haven of the sea, and he shall be for a haven of ships, and his border shall be to Zidon.
 14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens,
 15 And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was pleasant, and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a bondservant.
 16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
 17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that bites the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
 18 I have waited for your salvation, O Lord.
 19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him, but he shall overcome at the last.
 20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
 21 Naphtali is a hind let loose, he gives goodly words.
 22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well, whose branches run over the wall,
 23 The archers have severly grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him,
 24 But his bow lived in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob, (from there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel,)
 25 By the God of your father, who shall help you, and by the Almighty, who shall bless you with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lies under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb,
 26 The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of my ancestors to the farthest bound of the everlasting hills, they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brothers.
 27 Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf, in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil."
 28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is it that their father spoke to them, and blessed them, everyone according to his blessing he blessed them.
 29 And he commanded them, and said to them, "I am to be gathered to my people, bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
 30 In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, that is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, that Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a burying place.
 31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife, there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I buried Leah.
 32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is in it was from the children of Heth.
 33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered to his people.

___Genesis chapter 50
 1 And Joseph fell on his father's face, and cried on him, and kissed him.
 2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father, and the physicians embalmed Israel.
 3 And forty days were fulfilled for him, 'cause that's what they do when they embalm, and the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.
 4 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
 5 My father made me swear, saying, See, I'm dying, in my grave that I've dug for myself in the land of Canaan is where you shall bury me.  Now therefore let me go up, please, and bury my father, and I'll come back."
 6 And Pharaoh said, "Go up, and bury your father, like he made you swear."
 7 And Joseph went up to bury his father, and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
 8 And all the house of Joseph, and his brothers, and his father's house, only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
 9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen, and it was a very large company.
 10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, that is beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very severe lamentation, and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
 11 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, "This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians," so the name of it was called Abelmizraim, which is beyond Jordan.
 12 And his sons did to him according as he commanded them,
 13 For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a burying place from Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.
 14 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
 15 And when Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "Joseph will perhaps hate us, and will certainly repay us for all the evil that we did to him."
 16 And they sent a messenger to Joseph, saying, "Your father commanded before he died, saying,
 17 So shall you say to Joseph, Please forgive now the sins of your brothers, for they did to you evil, and now, please forgive the sins of the servants of the God of your father."  And Joseph cried when they spoke to him.
 18 And his brothers also went and fell down before his face, and they said, "See, we are your servants."
 19 And Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
 20 But as for you, you thought evil against me, but God meant it for good, to make it happen, as it is this day, to save many people alive.
 21 Now therefore don't be afraid, I will nourish you, and your little ones."  And he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
 22 And Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father's house, and Joseph lived one hundred ten years.
 23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation, the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up on Joseph's knees.
 24 And Joseph said to his brothers, "I'm dying, and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land to the land that he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."
 25 And Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, "God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here."
 26 So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

___Exodus chapter 1
 1 Now these are the names of the children of Israel, that came into Egypt, every man and his household came with Jacob.
 2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
 3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
 4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
 5 And all the souls that came out of the body of Jacob were seventy souls, for Joseph was in Egypt already.
 6 And Joseph died, and all his brothers, and all that generation.
 7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and became very mighty, and the land was filled with them.
 8 Now there rose up a new king over Egypt, who hadn't known Joseph.
 9 And he said to his people, See, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we,
 10 Come on, let us deal wisely with them, so that they don't multiply, and so it doesn't happen that, when a war comes along, they join with our enemies, and fight against us, and so get themselves out of the land.
 11 Therefore they set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens.  And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.
 12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew.  And they were grieved because of the children of Israel.
 13 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with harshness,
 14 And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they made them serve, was with harshness.
 15 And the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah,
 16 And he said, "When you do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the stools, if it's a son, then kill him, but if it's a daughter, then she shall live."
 17 But the midwives feared God, and didn't do like the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
 18 And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?"
 19 And the midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are lively, and receive deliverance before the midwives come in to them."
 20 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and became very strong.
 21 And because the midwives feared God, he made them houses.
 22 And Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, "Every son that is born you shall throw into the river, and every daughter you shall let live."

___Exodus chapter 2
 1 And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a daughter of Levi.
 2 And the woman conceived, and bore a son, and when she saw him that he was a proper child, she hid him three months.
 3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child in it, and she laid it in the flags by the river's bank.
 4 And his sister stood afar off, to see what would be done to him.
 5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river, and her maids walked along by the river's side, and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
 6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child, and see, the baby cried.  And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
 7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call you a nurse of the Hebrew women, so she can nurse the child for you?"
 8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go."  And the maid went and called the child's mother.
 9 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give you your wages."  And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
 10 And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son.  And she called his name Moses, and she said, "Because I took him out of the water."
 11 And in those days, when Moses had grown, he went out to his brothers, and looked at their burdens, and he spied an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
 12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
 13 And when he went out the second day, see, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other, and he said to him that did the wrong, "Why did you strike your fellow?"
 14 And he said, "Who made you a prince and a judge over us?  Do you intend to kill me, like you killed the Egyptian?"  And Moses feared, and said, "Surely this thing is known."
 15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses.  But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
 16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
 17 And the shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
 18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, "How is it that you've come so soon today?"
 19 And they said, "An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock."
 20 And he said to his daughters, "And where is he?  Why is it that you have left the man?  Call him, so he can eat bread."
 21 And Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
 22 And she bore him a son, and he called his name Gershom, for he said, "I've been a stranger in a strange land."
 23 And in process of time, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
 24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
 25 And God looked at the children of Israel, and God had respect for them.

___Exodus chapter 3
 1 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, to Horeb.
 2 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the middle of a bush, and he looked, and see, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
 3 And Moses said, "I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt."
 4 And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the middle of the bush, and said, "Moses, Moses."  And he said, "Here I am."
 5 And he said, "Don't come near here, put off your shoes from your feet, for the place on which you stand is holy ground."
 6 Also he said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob."  And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.
 7 And the Lord said, "I've surely seen the affliction of my people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows,
 8 And I've come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
 9 Now therefore, see, the cry of the children of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
 10 Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, so you can bring out my people the children of Israel out of Egypt."
 11 And Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring out the children of Israel out of Egypt?"
 12 And he said, "Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be a token to you, that I have sent you, When you've brought the people out of Egypt, you'll serve God on this mountain."
 13 And Moses said to God, "See, when I come to the children of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they say to me, What is his name?  What shall I say to them?"
 14 And God said to Moses, "I am that I am," and he said, "Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, I am has sent me to you."
 15 And God said also to Moses, "Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you, this is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.
 16 Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, I have surely visited you, and have seen what is done to you in Egypt,
 17 And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
 18 And they shall listen to your voice, and you shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and you shall say to him, The Lord God of the Hebrews has met with us, and now let us go, please, three days' journey into the wilderness, so we can sacrifice to the Lord our God.
 19 And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty hand.
 20 And I will stretch out my hand, and strike Egypt with all my wonders that I'll do among them, and after that he'll let you go.
 21 And I will give these people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and when you go, you won't go empty,
 22 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbor, and of her that is visiting in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing, and you'll put them on your sons, and on your daughters, and you'll spoil the Egyptians."

___Exodus chapter 4
 1 And Moses answered and said, "But see, they won't believe me, nor listen to my voice, for they'll say, The Lord hasn't appeared to you."
 2 And the Lord said to him, "What is that in your hand?"  And he said, "A rod."
 3 And he said, "Throw it on the ground."  And he threw it on the ground, and it became a snake, and Moses ran from it.
 4 And the Lord said to Moses, "Put out your hand, and take it by the tail."  And he put out his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand,
 5 "So that they'll believe that the Lord God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you."
 6 And the Lord said furthermore to him, "Now put your hand into your bosom."  And he put his hand into his bosom, and when he took it out, see, his hand was leprous like snow.
 7 And he said, "Put your hand back into bosom."  And he put his hand back into his bosom, and pulled it out of his bosom, and see, it had gone back like his other flesh.
 8 And if they won't believe you, nor listen to the voice of the first sign, they'll believe the voice of the other sign.
 9 And if they won't believe those two signs, nor listen to your voice, you shall take of the water from the river, and pour it on the dry land, and the water that you take out of the river shall become blood on the dry land.
 10 And Moses said to the Lord, "O my Lord, I'm not a good speaker, neither until now, nor since you've spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue."
 11 And the Lord said to him, "Who made man's mouth?  Or who makes those who can't speak, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind?  Haven't I, the Lord?
 12 Now therefore go, and I'll be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall say."
 13 And he said, "O my Lord, please send, by the hand of him whom you'll send."
 14 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses, and he said, "Isn't Aaron the Levite your brother?  I know that he can speak well.  And also, see, he's coming out to meet you, and when he sees you, he'll be glad in his heart.
 15 And you'll speak to him, and put words in his mouth, and I'll be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do.
 16 And he shall be your spokesman to the people, and he shall be, even he shall be to you instead of a mouth, and you shall be to him instead of God.
 17 And you shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do signs."
 18 And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and said to him, "Let me go, please, and return to my brothers that are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive."  And Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."
 19 And the Lord said to Moses in Midian, "Go, return into Egypt, for all the men are dead who wanted you dead."
 20 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them on an donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt, and Moses took the rod of God in his hand.
 21 And the Lord said to Moses, "When you go to return into Egypt, see that you do all those wonders before Pharaoh, that I've put in your hand, but I will harden his heart, so he won't let the people go.
 22 And you shall say to Pharaoh, Thus says the Lord, Israel is my son, my firstborn,
 23 And I say to you, Let my son go, so he can serve me, and if you refuse to let him go, see, I'll kill your son, your firstborn."
 24 And on the way in the hotel, the Lord met him, and tried to kill him.
 25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and threw it at his feet, and said, "Surely you're a bloody husband to me."
 26 So he let him go, then she said, "You're a bloody husband, because of the circumcision."
 27 And the Lord said to Aaron, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moses."  And he went, and met him in the mountain of God, and kissed him.
 28 And Moses told Aaron all the words of the Lord who had sent him, and all the signs that he had commanded him.
 29 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel,
 30 And Aaron spoke all the words that the Lord had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.
 31 And the people believed, and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked at their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.

___Exodus chapter 5
 1 And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, "Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, so they can hold a feast to me in the wilderness."
 2 And Pharaoh said, "Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go?  I don't know the Lord, nor will I let Israel go."
 3 And they said, "The God of the Hebrews has met with us, let us go, please, three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice to the Lord our God, so he won't fall on us with pestilence, or with the sword."
 4 And the king of Egypt said to them, "Why do you, Moses and Aaron, let the people stop working?  Get to your burdens."
 5 And Pharaoh said, "Behold, the people of the land now are many, and you make them rest from their burdens."
 6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
 7 "You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick, as before, let them go and gather straw for themselves.
 8 And the total number of bricks that they made before, you shall require from them, you shall not diminish any of it, for they are idle, therefore they shout, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.
 9 Lay more work on the men, so they will labor in it, and let them not pay attention to vain words."
 10 And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying, "Thus says Pharaoh, I won't give you straw.
 11 Go get yourselves straw where you can find it, yet not any of your work shall be diminished."
 12 So the people were scattered around throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.
 13 And the taskmasters hurried them, saying, "Fulfil your works, your daily tasks, like when there was straw."
 14 And the officers of the children of Israel, that Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded of, "Why haven't you fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today, like before?"
 15 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and called to Pharaoh, saying, "Why do you deal this way with your servants?
 16 No straw has been given to your servants, and they say to us, Make brick, and see, your servants were beaten, but the fault is in your own people."
 17 But he said, "You are idle, you are idle, that's why you say, Let us go and do sacrifice to the Lord.
 18 Therefore go now, and work, for no straw shall be given to you, yet you shall deliver the number of bricks."
 19 And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in an evil case, after it was said, you shall not diminish any from the bricks of your daily task.
 20 And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came out from Pharaoh,
 21 And they said to them, The Lord look at you, and judge, because you've made us to be hated in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us.
 22 And Moses returned to the Lord, and said, "Lord, why have you treated these people so badly?  Why is it that you've sent me?
 23 For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has done evil to these people, nor have you delivered your people at all."

___Exodus chapter 6
 1 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Now you'll see what I'll do to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand he'll let them go, and with a strong hand he'll drive them out of his land."
 2 And God spoke to Moses, and said to him, "I am the Lord,
 3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name Jehovah, I wasn't known to them.
 4 And I've also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they were strangers.
 5 And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered my covenant.
 6 So say to the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I'll bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I'll rid you out of their bondage, and I'll redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments,
 7 And I'll take you to myself for a people, and I'll be to you a God, and you'll know that I'm the Lord your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
 8 And I'll bring you into the land, concerning which I swore to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, and I'll give it you for a heritage, I am the Lord."
 9 And Moses told these things to the children of Israel, but they didn't listen to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.
 10 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 11 "Go in, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to let the children of Israel go out of his land."
 12 And Moses spoke before the Lord, saying, "See, the children of Israel haven't listened to me, how then shall Pharaoh listen me, who am of uncircumcised lips?"
 13 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and gave them a charge to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
 14 These are the heads of their fathers' houses, The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi, these are the families of Reuben.
 15 And the sons of Simeon, Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitish woman, these are the families of Simeon.
 16 And these are the names of the sons of Levi according to their generations, Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari, and the years of the life of Levi were one hundred thirty seven years.
 17 The sons of Gershon, Libni, and Shimi, according to their families.
 18 And the sons of Kohath, Amram, and Izhar, and Hebron, and Uzziel, and the years of the life of Kohath were one hundred thirty three years.
 19 And the sons of Merari, Mahali and Mushi, these are the families of Levi according to their generations.
 20 And Amram took Jochebed his father's sister as wife, and she bore him Aaron and Moses, and the years of the life of Amram were one hundred thirty seven years.
 21 And the sons of Izhar, Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri.
 22 And the sons of Uzziel, Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Zithri.
 23 And Aaron took Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab, sister of Naashon, as wife, and she bore him Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
 24 And the sons of Korah, Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph, these are the families of the Korhites.
 25 And Eleazar Aaron's son took one of the daughters of Putiel as wife, and she bore him Phinehas, these are the heads of the fathers of the Levites according to their families.
 26 These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom the Lord said, "Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their armies."
 27 These are those who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt, these are that Moses and Aaron.
 28 And on the day when the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,
 29 The Lord spake to Moses, saying, "I am the Lord, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say to you."
 30 And Moses said before the Lord, "See, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how is Pharaoh going to listen to me?"

___Exodus chapter 7
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
 2 You shall speak all that I command you, and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, to send the children of Israel out of his land.
 3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
 4 But Pharaoh won't listen to you, so I can lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
 5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them."
 6 And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, they did so.
 7 And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
 8 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 9 "When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Show me a miracle, then you shall say to Aaron, Take your rod, and throw it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a snake."
 10 And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did what the Lord had commanded, and Aaron threw down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a snake.
 11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and those who practiced witchcraft, now the magicians of Egypt, they also did likewise with their enchantments.
 12 For each man threw down his rod, and they became snakes, but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
 13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he didn't listen to them, as the Lord had said.
 14 And the Lord said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is hardened; he refuses to let the people go.
 15 Get you to Pharaoh in the morning, see, he goes out to the water, and you shall stand by the river's bank waiting for him, and you shall take in your hand the rod that turned into a snake.
 16 And you shall say to him, The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, Let my people go, so they can serve me in the wilderness, and, see, until now you wouldn't listen.
 17 Thus says the Lord, In this you'll know that I am the Lord, see, I'll strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters that are in the river, and they'll be turned into blood.
 18 And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall stink, and the Egyptians shall hate to drink of the water of the river."
 19 And the Lord spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take your rod, and stretch out your hand on the waters of Egypt, on their streams, on their rivers, and on their ponds, and on all their pools of water, so they'll become blood, and so there'll be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in containers of wood, and in containers of stone.
 20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded, and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants, and all the waters that were in the river were turned into blood.
 21 And the fish that were in the river died, and the river stank, and the Egyptians couldn't drink of the water of the river, and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
 22 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments, and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, nor did he listen to them, as the Lord had said.
 23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, nor did he set his heart on this either.
 24 And all the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink, for they couldn't drink of the water of the river.
 25 And seven days were fulfilled, after the Lord had struck the river.

___Exodus chapter 8
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says the Lord, Let my people go, so they can serve me.
 2 And if you refuse to let them go, see, I'll strike all your borders with frogs,
 3 And the river shall produce frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs,
 4 And the frogs shall come up on you, and on your people, and on all your servants."
 5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, "Say to Aaron, Stretch out your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt."
 6 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
 7 And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
 8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, "Intreat the Lord, so he'll take away the frogs from me, and from my people, and I'll let the people go, so they can do sacrifice to the Lord."
 9 And Moses said to Pharaoh, "Glory over me, when shall I intreat for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, so they'll remain in the river only?"
 10 And he said, "Tomorrow."  And he said, "Be it according to your word, so that you'll know that there is no one like the Lord our God.
 11 And the frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people, they'll remain in the river only."
 12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses called to the Lord because of the frogs that he'd brought against Pharaoh.
 13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
 14 And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
 15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart, and wouldn't listen to them, as the Lord had said.
 16 And the Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it will become lice throughout all the land of Egypt."
 17 And they did so, for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast, all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
 18 And the magicians did likewise with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn't, so there were lice on man, and on beast.
 19 Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God," and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them, as the Lord had said.
 20 And the Lord said to Moses, "Get up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, see, he comes out to the water, and say to him, Thus says the Lord, Let my people go, so they can serve me.
 21 Otherwise, if you won't let my people go, see, I'll send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses, and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they are.
 22 And I will separate on that day the land of Goshen, where my people live, so that no swarms of flies shall be there, so that you'll know that I am the Lord on the earth.
 23 And I will put a division between my people and your people, this sign shall be tomorrow."
 24 And the Lord did so, and a grievous swarm of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt, the land was ruined because of the swarm of flies.
 25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, "Go sacrifice to your God in the land."
 26 And Moses said, It's not right to do so, for we'll sacrifice what the Egyptians hate to the Lord our God, see, shall we sacrifice what the Egyptians hate before their eyes, and won't they stone us?
 27 We'll go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he shall command us.
 28 And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, so you can sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away, intreat for me.
 29 And Moses said, "See, I go out from you, and I'll intreat the Lord that the swarms of flies will depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow, but let Pharaoh not deal deceitfully anymore in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord."
 30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the Lord.
 31 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, there remained not one.
 32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, nor would he let the people go.

___Exodus chapter 9
 1 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, so they can serve me.
 2 For if you refuse to let them go, and will hold them still,
 3 Behold, the hand of the Lord is on your cattle that are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the oxen, and on the sheep, there shall be a very grievous cattle disease.
 4 And the Lord shall separate between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and nothing shall die of all that is the children's of Israel."
 5 And the Lord appointed a set time, saying, "Tomorrow the Lord shall do this thing in the land."
 6 And the Lord did that thing on the next day, and all the cattle of Egypt died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel not one died.
 7 And Pharaoh sent, and see, there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead.  And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
 8 And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, "Take handfuls of ashes from the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward heaven in the sight of Pharaoh.
 9 And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking out with sores on man, and on beast, throughout all the land of Egypt."
 10 And they took ashes from the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven, and it became a boil breaking forth with sores on man, and on beast.
 11 And the magicians couldn't stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boil was on the magicians, and on all the Egyptians.
 12 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn't listen to them, as the Lord had said to Moses.
 13 And the Lord said to Moses, "Get up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, so they can serve me.
 14 For I will at this time send all my plagues on your heart, and on your servants, and on your people, so that you'll know that there is none like me in all the earth.
 15 For now I will stretch out my hand, so I can strike you and your people with pestilence, and you'll be cut off from the earth.
 16 And as a matter of fact, for this reason I've raised you up, for to show in you my power, and so my name will be declared throughout all the earth.
 17 As yet do you exalt yourself against my people, so that you won't let them go?
 18 Behold, tomorrow about this time I'll cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hasn't been in Egypt since the foundation of it until now.
 19 Therefore send now, and gather your cattle, and all that you have in the field, for on every man and beast that shall be found in the field, and isn't brought home, the hail shall come down on them, and they'll die."
 20 He that feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses,
 21 And he that didn't regard the word of the Lord left his servants and his cattle in the field.
 22 And the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that there will be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every plant in the field, throughout the land of Egypt."
 23 And Moses stretched out his rod toward heaven, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along on the ground, and the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt.
 24 So there was hail, and fire mixed with the hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
 25 And the hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast, and the hail struck every plant of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
 26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
 27 And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time, the Lord is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
 28 Intreat the Lord (for it is enough) so that there are no more mighty thunderings and hail, and I will let you go, and you'll stay no longer.
 29 And Moses said to him, "As soon as I've gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the Lord, and the thunder shall cease, nor shall there be anymore hail, so that you'll know that the earth is the Lord's.
 30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you won't yet fear the Lord God."
 31 And the flax and the barley was struck, for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled.
 32 But the wheat and the rye were not struck, for they were not yet grown up.
 33 And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to the Lord, and the thunders and hail stopped, and the rain was not poured on the earth.
 34 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had stopped, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
 35 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the children of Israel go, as the Lord had spoken by Moses.

___Exodus chapter 10
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, so I can show these my signs before him,
 2 And so that you'll tell in the ears of your son, and of your son's son, what things I've done in Egypt, and my signs that I've done among them, so that you'll know that I'm the Lord."
 3 And Moses and Aaron came in to Pharaoh, and said to him, "Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews, How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me?  Let my people go, so they can serve me.
 4 Otherwise, if you refuse to let my people go, see, tomorrow I'll bring the locusts into your coast,
 5 And they'll cover the face of the earth, so no one can see the earth, and they shall eat what remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree that grows for you out of the field,
 6 And they shall fill your houses, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, that neither your fathers, nor your fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth 'til this day."  And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
 7 And Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long shall this man be a snare to us?  Let the men go, so they can serve the Lord their God, don't you yet know that Egypt has been destroyed?"
 8 And Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve the Lord your God, but who are they that shall go?"
 9 And Moses said, "We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go, for we must hold a feast to the Lord."
 10 And he said to them, "Let the Lord be so with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones, look to it, for evil is before you.
 11 Not so, go now you that are men, and serve the Lord, since you desired it."  And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
 12 And the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so they'll come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every plant of the land, everything that the hail has left."
 13 And Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all that night, and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
 14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt, they were very grievous, before them there were no such locusts, nor after them shall be such.
 15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every plant of the land, and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left, and no green thing remained in the trees, or in the plants of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
 16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron hurriedly, and he said, "I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
 17 Now therefore please forgive my sin only this once, and intreat the Lord your God, so that he'll take away from me this death only."
 18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the Lord.
 19 And the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and threw them into the Red sea, there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt.
 20 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he wouldn't let the children of Israel go.
 21 And the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that there will be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness that will be felt."
 22 And Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days,
 23 They didn't see each other, nor did anyone rise from his place for three days, but all the children of Israel had light in their dwelling places.
 24 And Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, "Go serve the Lord, only let your flocks and your herds remain, let your little ones also go with you."
 25 And Moses said, "You must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, so that we can sacrifice to the Lord our God.
 26 Our cattle also shall go with us, there shall not a hoof be left behind, for we must take from them to serve the Lord our God, and we don't know with what we must serve the Lord, until we come there."
 27 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
 28 And Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me, take heed to yourself, see my face no more, for on that day you see my face you'll die."
 29 And Moses said, "You've spoken well, I will see your face again no more."

___Exodus chapter 11
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "Yet will I bring one more plague on Pharaoh, and on Egypt, afterward he will let you go from here, when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out from here completely.
 2 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow from his neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold."
 3 And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians.  Also the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight of the people.
 4 And Moses said, "Thus says the Lord, About midnight I'll go through Egypt,
 5 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill, and all the firstborn of animals.
 6 And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it anymore.
 7 But against any of the children of Israel not a dog shall move its tongue, against man or beast, so that you'll know that the Lord puts a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.
 8 And all these your servants shall come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, Get out, and all the people that follow you, and after that I'll go out."  And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.
 9 And the Lord said to Moses, "Pharaoh won't listen to you, so that my wonders will be multiplied in the land of Egypt."
 10 And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, and the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he wouldn't let the children of Israel go out of his land.

___Exodus chapter 12
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
 2 "This month shall be to you the beginning of months, it shall be the first month of the year to you.
 3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month each man shall take to himself a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for a household,
 4 And if the household is too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the souls, every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb.
 5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year, you shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats,
 6 And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month, and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.
 7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, in which they shall eat it.
 8 And they shall eat the flesh on that night, roasted with fire, and unleavened bread, and they shall eat it with bitter herbs.
 9 Don't eat it raw, nor soaked in water, but roasted with fire, his head with his legs, and with what pertains to it.
 10 And you shall let nothing of it remain until the morning, and that which remains of it until the morning you shall burn with fire.
 11 And thus shall you eat it, with your midsections clothed, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and you shall eat it in haste, it is the Lord's passover.
 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast, and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment, I am the Lord.
 13 And the blood shall be to you a token on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
 14 And this day shall be to you for a memorial, and you shall keep it as a feast to the Lord throughout your generations, you shall keep it as a feast by an ordinance forever.
 15 Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread, the first day you shall put away yeast out of your houses, for whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
 16 And on the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation to you, no kind of work shall be done in them, except that which every man needs to eat, that only may be done by you.
 17 And you shall observe the feast of unleavened bread, for in this same day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt, therefore you shall observe this day in your generations by an ordinance forever.
 18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty first day of the month at evening.
 19 Seven days shall no leaven be found in your houses, for whoever eats that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger, or born in the land.
 20 You shall eat nothing leavened, in all your dwelling places shall you eat unleavened bread."
 21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said to them, "Draw out and take yourselves a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.
 22 And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the horizontal beam above the door and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason, and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
 23 For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on the horizontal beam above the door, and on the two side posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not allow the destroyer to come in to your houses to strike you.
 24 And you shall observe this thing for an ordinance to you and to your sons forever.
 25 And when you've come to the land that the Lord will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this service.
 26 And when your children say to you, What do you mean by this service?
 27 You shall say, It is the sacrifice of the Lord's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians, and delivered our houses."  And the people bowed the head and worshipped.
 28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, they did so.
 29 And at midnight the Lord struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.
 30 And Pharaoh got up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not someone dead.
 31 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, "Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both you and the children of Israel, and go, serve the Lord, as you have said.
 32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also."
 33 And the Egyptians were urgent on the people, so they could send them out of the land in haste, for they said, "We're all dead men."
 34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading troughs being bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.
 35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses, and they borrowed from the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothes,
 36 And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent to them such things as they required.  And they spoiled the Egyptians.
 37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children.
 38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them, and flocks, and herds, very much cattle.
 39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough that they brought out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were pushed out of Egypt, and couldn't wait, nor had they prepared for themselves any food.
 40 Now the temporary stay of the children of Israel, who lived in Egypt, was four hundred thirty years.
 41 And at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, the same day, all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.
 42 It is a night to be much observed to the Lord for bringing them out from the land of Egypt, this is that night of the Lord to be observed by all the children of Israel in their generations.
 43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the passover, No stranger shall eat of it,
 44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when you've circumcised him, then he shall eat of it.
 45 A foreigner and a hired servant shall not eat of it.
 46 In one house shall it be eaten, you shalt not carry out any of the flesh out of the house, nor shall you break a bone of it.
 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.
 48 And when a stranger shall visit with you, and will keep the passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it, and he shall be like one that is born in the land, for no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

 49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and to the stranger that visits among you.
 50 Thus did all the children of Israel, as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.
 51 And the same day, the Lord brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.

___Exodus chapter 13
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Sanctify to me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast, it is mine."
 3 And Moses said to the people, "Remember this day, in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage, for by strength of hand the Lord brought you out from this place, there shall no leavened bread be eaten.
 4 This day you came out in the month Abib.
 5 And it shall be when the Lord shall bring you into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, that he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month.
 6 Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the Lord.
 7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days, and there shall no leavened bread be seen with you, nor shall there be leaven seen with you in all your quarters.
 8 And you shall show your son in that day, saying, This is done because of that which the Lord did to me when I came out of Egypt.
 9 And it shall be for a sign to you on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, so that the Lord's law will be in your mouth, for with a strong hand has the Lord brought you out of Egypt.
 10 You shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.
 11 And it shall be when the Lord shall bring you into the land of the Canaanites, as he swore to you and to your fathers, and shall give it to you,
 12 That you shall set apart to the Lord all that open the matrix, and every firstling that comes from an animal that you have, the males shall be the Lord's.
 13 And every firstling of an donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, 
and if you won't redeem it, then you shall break its neck, and all the firstborn of man among your children you shall redeem.
 14 And it shall be when your son asks you in time to come, saying, What is this?  That you shall say to him, By strength of hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, from the house of bondage,
 15 And when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, the Lord killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of beast, therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that open the matrix, being males, but all the firstborn of my children I redeem.
 16 And it shall be for a token on your hand, and for frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt."
 17 And when Pharaoh had let the people go, God didn't lead them through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near, for God said, So that the people won't repent when they see war, and return to Egypt,
 18 But God led the people around, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea, and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.
 19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had strictly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones away from here with you.
 20 And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
 21 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, to go by day and night,
 22 He didn't take away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.

___Exodus chapter 14
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baalzephon, you shall encamp before it by the sea.
 3 For Pharaoh will say about the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has shut them in.
 4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, so he will follow after them, and I will be honored on Pharaoh, and on all his host, so that the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord."  And they did so.
 5 And the king of Egypt was told that the people fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, "Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"
 6 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him,
 7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
 8 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel, and the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
 9 But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.
 10 And when Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and see, the Egyptians marched after them, and they were very afraid, and the children of Israel shouted to the Lord.
 11 And they said to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness?  Why have you dealt thus with us, to carry us out of Egypt?
 12 Is not this the word that we told you in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, so we can serve the Egyptians?  For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness."
 13 And Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, that he will show to you today, for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you'll see them no more forever.
 14 The Lord shall fight for you, and you shall be quiet."
 15 And the Lord said to Moses, "Why do you shout to me?  Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward,
 16 But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it, and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the middle of the sea.
 17 And I, see, I'll harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they'll follow them, and I will get myself honor on Pharaoh, and on all his host, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.
 18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I've gotten myself honor on Pharaoh, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.
 19 And the angel of God, that went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them, and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them,
 20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these, so that the one didn't come near the other all night.
 21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
 22 And the children of Israel went into the middle of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
 23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the middle of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
 24 And in the morning watch the Lord looked to the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
 25 And took off their chariot wheels, so that they drove them heavily, so that the Egyptians said, "Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians."
 26 And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters will come back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.
 27 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared, and the Egyptians fled against it, and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
 28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them, there remained not one of them.
 29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
 30 Thus the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the sea shore.
 31 And Israel saw that great work that the Lord did on the Egyptians, and the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord, and his servant Moses.

___Exodus chapter 15
 1 Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying, "I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously, the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
 2 The Lord is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation, he is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
 3 The Lord is a man of war, the Lord is his name.
 4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host he has thrown into the sea, his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
 5 The depths have covered them, they sank to the bottom like a stone.
 6 Your right hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power, your right hand, O Lord, has dashed in pieces the enemy.
 7 And in the greatness of your excellency you've overthrown those who rose up against you, you sent out your anger that consumed them like stubble.
 8 And with the blast of your nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright like a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
 9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil, my lust shall be satisfied on them, I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
 10 You blew with your wind, the sea covered them, they sank like lead in the mighty waters.
 11 Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods?  Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
 12 You stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed them.
 13 You in your mercy have led out the people that you've redeemed, you've guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
 14 The people shall hear, and be afraid, sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestine.
 15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed, the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold of them, all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
 16 Fear and dread shall fall on them, by the greatness of your arm they'll be as still as a stone, 'til your people pass over, O Lord, 'til the people pass over, that you've purchased.
 17 You'll bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, in the place, O Lord, that you've made for yourself to live in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, that your hands have established.
 18 The Lord shall reign forever and always.
 19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea on them, but the children of Israel went on dry land in the middle of the sea."
 20 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
 21 And Miriam answered them, "Sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously, the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea."
 22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur, and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
 23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter, therefore the name of it was called Marah.
 24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"
 25 And he shouted to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree, which when he had thrown into the waters, the waters were made sweet, there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he tested them,
 26 And said, "If you'll diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I'll put none of these diseases on you, that I have brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord that heals you."
 27 And they came to Elim, where there were twelve wells of water, and seventy palm trees, and they encamped there by the waters.

___Exodus chapter 16
 1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
 2 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness,
 3 And the children of Israel said to them, "Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we ate bread to the full, for you've brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger."
 4 Then the Lord said to Moses, "See, I'll rain bread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, so I can test them, whether they'll walk in my law, or not.
 5 And it on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily."
 6 And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, "At evening, then you'll know that the Lord has brought you out from the land of Egypt,
 7 And in the morning, then you shall see the glory of the Lord, because he hears your murmurings against the Lord, and what are we, that you murmur against us?"
 8 And Moses said, "This shall be, when the Lord shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full, because the Lord hears your murmurings that you murmur against him, and what are we?  Your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord."
 9 And Moses spoke to Aaron, "Say to all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your murmurings."
 10 And as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wilderness, and see, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.
 11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 12 "I've heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, speak to them, saying, In the evening you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread, and you shall know that I am the Lord your God.
 13 And in the evening even the quails came up, and covered the camp, and in the morning the dew lay around the people.
 14 And when the dew that lay there had gone up, see, on the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
 15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to each other, "It is manna," for they didn't know what it was.  And Moses said to them, "This is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
 16 This is the thing that the Lord has commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your people, take every man for those who are in his tents."
 17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.
 18 And when they measured it with an omer, he that gathered much had no excess, and he that gathered little had no lack, they gathered every man according to his eating.
 19 And Moses said, "Let no man leave of it 'til the morning."
 20 But they didn't listen to Moses, but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank, and Moses was angry with them.
 21 And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating, and when the sun got hot, it melted.
 22 And on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each man, and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.
 23 And he said to them, "This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is the rest of the holy sabbath to the Lord, bake that which you will bake today, and seethe what you will seethe, and that which remains lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
 24 And they laid it up 'til the morning, as Moses said to do, and it didn't stink, nor was there any worm in it.
 25 And Moses said, "Eat that today, for today is a sabbath to the Lord, today you won't find it in the field.
 26 Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none."
 27 And there went out some of the people on the seventh day to gather, and they found none.
 28 And the Lord said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?
 29 See, because the Lord has given you the sabbath, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days, stay every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
 30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
 31 And the house of Israel called the name of it Manna, and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.
 32 And Moses said, "This is the thing that the Lord commands, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations, so they can see the bread with which I've fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out from the land of Egypt."
 33 And Moses said to Aaron, "Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna in it, and lay it up before the Lord, to be kept for your generations.
 34 As the Lord commanded Moses," so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
 35 And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited, they ate manna, until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
 36 Now an omer is one tenth of an ephah.

 1 And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, and pitched in Rephidim, and there was no water for the people to drink.
 2 So the people chided with Moses, and said, "Give us water so we can drink."  And Moses said to them, "Why do you chide with me?  Why do you tempt the Lord?"
 3 And the people thirsted there for water, and the people murmured against Moses, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?"
 4 And Moses shouted to the Lord, saying, "What shall I do to this people?  They are almost ready to stone me."
 5 And the Lord said to Moses, "Go on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel, and your rod, with which you struck the river, take in your hand, and go.
 6 See, I'll stand before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you'll strike the rock, and water will come out of it, so the people can drink."  And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
 7 And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, "Is the Lord among us, or not?"
 8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
 9 And Moses said to Joshua, "Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek, tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand."
 10 So Joshua did what Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
 11 And when Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
 12 But Moses' hands were heavy, and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it, and Aaron and Hur held up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side, and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
 13 And Joshua slaughtered Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
 14 And the Lord said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua, for I will completely put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven."
 15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi,
 16 For he said, "Because the Lord has sworn that the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation."

___Exodus chapter 18
 1 When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and that the Lord had brought Israel out of Egypt,
 2 Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her back,
 3 And her two sons, of which the name of one was Gershom, for he said, "I have been an alien in a strange land,"
 4 And the name of the other was Eliezer, "For the God of my father," said he, "was my help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh,"
 5 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mountain of God,
 6 And he said to Moses, "I your father in law, Jethro, have come to you, and your wife, and her two sons with her."
 7 And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and bowed, and kissed him, and they asked each other about their welfare, and they came into the tent.
 8 And Moses told his father in law all that the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, and all the travail that had come on them by the way, and how the Lord delivered them.
 9 And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness that the Lord had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.
 10 And Jethro said, "Blessed be the Lord, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
 11 Now I know that the Lord is greater than all gods, for in the thing in which they dealt proudly he was above them."
 12 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God, and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in law before God.
 13 And on the next day, Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood by Moses from the morning to the evening.
 14 And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, "What is this thing that you do to the people?  Why do you sit alone, and all the people stand by you from morning to evening?"
 15 And Moses said to his father in law, "Because the people come to me to inquire of God,
 16 When they have a matter, they come to me, and I judge between them, and I tell them the statutes of God, and his laws."
 17 And Moses' father in law said to him, "The thing that you're doing is not good.
 18 You'll surely wear away, both you, and these people that are with you, for this thing is too heavy for you, you're not able to perform it yourself alone.
 19 Listen now to my voice, I'll give you advice, and God shall be with you, You be for the people toward God, so that you'll bring the causes to God,
 20 And you shall teach them ordinances and laws, and shall show them the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do.
 21 Also you shall provide out of all the people able men, that fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness, and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens,
 22 And let them judge the people at all seasons, and it shall be, that every important matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they shall judge, so it shall be easier for yourself, and they shall bear the burden with you.
 23 If you'll do this thing, and God commands you so, then you'll be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace."
 24 So Moses listened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.
 25 And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
 26 And they judged the people at all seasons, the hard causes they brought to Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.
 27 And Moses let his father in law depart, and he went his way into his own land.

___Exodus chapter 19
 1 In the third month, after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, the same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
 2 For they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness, and Israel camped there before the mountain.
 3 And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him out of the mountain, saying, "Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel,
 4 You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I carried you on eagles' wings, and brought you to myself.
 5 Now therefore, if you'll obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then you shall be a peculiar treasure to me above all people, for all the earth is mine,
 6 And you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.  These are the words that you shall speak to the children of Israel."
 7 And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words that the Lord commanded him.
 8 And all the people answered together, and said, "All that the Lord has spoken we will do."  And Moses returned the words of the people to the Lord.
 9 And the Lord said to Moses, "See, I come to you in a thick cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever."  And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
 10 And the Lord said to Moses, "Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes,
 11 And be ready for the third day, for the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
 12 And you shall set bounds around to the people, saying, Take heed to yourselves, so that you don't go up into the mountain, or touch the border of it, whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death,
 13 Not a hand shall touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through, whether it's animal or man, it shall not live, when the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain."
 14 And Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.
 15 And he said to the people, "Be ready for the third day, abstain from sex."
 16 And on the third day in the morning, there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the voice of the trumpet very loud, so that all the people that were in the camp trembled.
 17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
 18 And Mount Sinai was completely smiking, because the Lord descended on it in fire, and the smoke of it ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
 19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and became louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
 20 And the Lord came down on Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain, and the Lord called Moses up to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
 21 And the Lord said to Moses, "Go down, charge the people, so they won't break through to the Lord to gaze, and many of them die.
 22 And let the priests also, who come near to the Lord, sanctify themselves, so the Lord won't hurt them."
 23 And Moses said to the Lord, "The people can't come up to Mount Sinai, for you charged us, saying, Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it."
 24 And the Lord said to him, "Away, get down, and you shall come up, you, and Aaron with you, but don't let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, so he won't hurt them."
 25 So Moses went down to the people, and spoke to them.

___Exodus chapter 20
 1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
 2 "I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
 3 You shall have no other gods before me.
 4 You shall not make for yourselves any engraved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth,
 5 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the sins of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
 6 And showing mercy to thousands of those who love me, and keep my commandments.
 7 You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord won't hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
 9 Six days shall you labor, and do all your work,
 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord your God, in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is inside your gates,
 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day, so the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
 12 Honor your father and your mother, so your days will be long on the land that the Lord your God gives you.
 13 You shall not kill.
 14 You shall not commit adultery.
 15 You shall not steal.
 16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
 17 You shall not covet your neighbor's house, you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's."
 18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking, and when the people saw it, they moved, and stood far off.
 19 And they said to Moses, "You speak with us, and we will listen, but don't let God speak with us, so we don't die."
 20 And Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid, for God has come to test you, and so that his fear will be before your faces, so that you don't sin."
 21 And the people stood far off, and Moses went near the thick darkness where God was.
 22 And the Lord said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, you've seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
 23 You shall not make with me gods of silver, nor shall you make for yourselves gods of gold.
 24 An altar of earth you shall make for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings, and your peace offerings, your sheep, and your oxen, in all places where I record my name, I will come to you, and I will bless you.
 25 And if you want to make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of cut stone, for if you lift up your tool on it, you've polluted it.
 26 Nor shall you go up by steps to my altar, so your nakedness won't be discovered on it."

___Exodus chapter 21
 1 "Now these are the judgments that you shall set before them.
 2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years, and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
 3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself, if he was married, then his wife shall go out with him.
 4 If his master has given him a wife, and she has born him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
 5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children, I don't want to go out free,
 6 Then his master shall take him to the judges, he shall also take him to the door, or to the door post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him forever.
 7 And if a man sells his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out like the menservants do.
 8 If she doesn't please her master, who has gotten engaged to her, then he shall let her be redeemed, to sell her to a strange nation he shall have no power, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.
 9 And if his son has gotten engaged to her, he shall deal as with daughters.
 10 If he takes for himself another wife, her food, her clothes, and her duty of marriage, he shall not diminish.
 11 And if he doesn't do these three to her, then she shall go out free without money.
 12 He that strikes a man, so that he dies, shall be surely put to death.
 13 And if a man doesn't lie in wait, but God delivers him into his hand, then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee to.
 14 But if a man comes presumptuously on his neighbor, to kill him with sneakiness, you shall take him from my altar, so he can die.
 15 And he that strikes his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
 16 And he that steals a man, and sells him, or if he's found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
 17 And he that curses his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
 18 And if men fight together, and one strikes another with a stone, or with his fist, and he doesn't die, but keeps his bed,
 19 If he rises again, and walks out on his staff, then he that struck him shall get off, only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
 20 And if a man strikes his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he dies under his hand, he shall be surely punished.
 21 But if he continues a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his money.
 22 If men fight, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit departs from her, and yet no mischief follows, he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay on him, and he shall pay as the judges determine.
 23 And if any mischief follows, then you shall give life for life,
 24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
 25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
 26 And if a man strikes the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, so that it's destroyed, he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
 27 And if he strikes out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.
 28 If an ox gores a man or a woman, so that they die, then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten, but the owner of the ox shall get off.
 29 But if the ox was in the habit of pushing with his horn in the past, and it has been testified to his owner, and he hasn't kept him in, but that he has killed a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
 30 If there is laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatever is laid on him.
 31 Whether he has gored a son, or has gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done to him.
 32 If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant, he shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
 33 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass falls in it,
 34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money to the owner of them, and the dead beast shall be his.
 35 And if one man's ox hurt another's, so that it dies, then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it, and they shall also divide the dead ox .
 36 Or if it's known that the ox used to push in the past, and his owner hasn't kept him in, he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead shall be his own."

___Exodus chapter 22
 1 "If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kills it, or sells it, he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
 2 If a thief is caught breaking up, and is struck and he dies, no blood shall be shed for him.
 3 If the sun has risen on him, there shall be blood shed for him, for he should make full restitution, if he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
 4 If the theft is certainly found in his hand alive, whether it is ox, or donkey, or sheep, he shall restore double.
 5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field, from the best of his own field, and from the best of his own vineyard, he shall make restitution.
 6 If fire breaks out, and catches in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, is consumed by it, he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
 7 If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it's stolen out of the man's house, if the thief is found, let him pay double.
 8 If the thief isn't found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, to see whether he has put his hand to his neighbor's goods.
 9 For all kinds of trespass, whether it's for ox, for ass, for sheep, for clothing, or for any kind of lost thing, which another challenges to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges, and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double to his neighbor.
 10 If a man delivers to his neighbor a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep, or any animal, to keep, and it dies, or gets hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it,
 11 Then shall an oath of the Lord be between them both, that he hasn't put his hand to his neighbor's goods, and the owner of it shall accept it, and he shall not make it good.
 12 And if it is stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
 13 If it has been torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
 14 And if a man borrows anything from his neighbor, and it gets hurt, or dies, the owner of it not being with it, he shall surely make it good.
 15 But if the owner of it was with it, he shall not make it good, if it is a hired thing, it came for his wages.
 16 And if a man entices a maid that is not engaged, and lies with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
 17 If her father completely refuses to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
 18 You shall not allow a witch to live.
 19 Whosoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.
 20 He that sacrifices to any god except to the Lord only, he shall be completely destroyed.
 21 You shalt not vex a stranger, nor oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
 22 You shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
 23 If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry,
 24 And my anger shall become hot, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
 25 If you lend money to any of my people that is poor by you, you shall not be to him like a usurer, you shall not make him pay interest.
 26 If you at all take your neighbor's clothing as pledge, you shalt return it to him by sundown,
 27 For that is his covering only, it is his clothing for his skin, on what shall he sleep?  And when he shouts to me, I will hear, for I am gracious.
 28 You shall not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of your people.
 29 You shall not delay to offer the first of your ripe fruits, and of your liquors, the firstborn of your sons shall you give to me.
 30 Likewise shalt you do with your oxen, and with your sheep, seven days it shall be with its mother, on the eighth day you shall give it to me.
 31 And you shall be holy men to me, nor shall you eat any flesh that is torn by beasts in the field, you shall throw it to the dogs."

___Exodus chapter 23
 1 "You shall not raise a false report, don't put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
 2 You shall not follow a multitude to do evil, nor shall you speak in a cause to decline after many to pervert justice,
 3 Nor shall you hide yourself from the cause of a poor man who's been done wrong.
 4 If you meet your enemy's ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.
 5 If you see the donkey of him that hates you lying under its burden, and would prefer not to help him, you shall surely help him.
 6 You shalt not pervert the justice of your poor in his cause.
 7 Keep far from a false matter, and don't kill the innocent and righteous, for I will not justify the wicked.
 8 And you shall take no bribe, for the bribe blinds the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous.
 9 Also you shalt not oppress a stranger, for you know the heart of a stranger, since you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
 10 And you shall plant your land six years, and shall gather in the fruits of it,
 11 But the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie still, so that the poor of your people can eat, and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat.  You shall deal similarly with your vineyard, and with your oliveyard.
 12 Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest, so that your ox and your donkey can rest, and the son of your handmaid, and the stranger, will be refreshed.
 13 And in all things that I've said to you take into consideration everything that pertains, and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.
 14 Three times in the year you shall keep a feast to me.
 15 You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread, (you shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded you, in the time appointed of the month Abib, for in it you came out from Egypt, and no one shall appear before me empty,)
 16 And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, that you've planted in the field, and the feast of in-gathering, which is in the end of the year, when you've gathered in your labors out of the field.
 17 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord God.
 18 You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread, nor shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning.
 19 The first of the first fruits of your land you shall bring into the house of the Lord your God.  You shall not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.
 20 See, I send an Angel before you, to keep you in the way, and to bring you into the place that I've prepared.
 21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, don't provoke him, for he won't pardon your transgressions, for my name is in him.
 22 But if you indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.
 23 For my Angel shall go before you, and bring you in to the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, and I will cut them off.
 24 You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their doings, but you shall completely destroy them, and completely break down their images.
 25 And you shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless your bread, and your water, and I will take sickness away from among you.
 26 Nothing shall cast their young, nor be barren, in your land, the number of your days I'll fulfil.
 27 I'll send my fear before you, and will destroy all the people to whom you come, and I'll make all your enemies turn their backs to you.
 28 And I'll send hornets before you, that will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.
 29 I won't drive them out from before you in one year, so the land doesn't become desolate, and the beasts of the field don't multiply against you.
 30 By little and little I'll drive them out from before you, until you're increased, and inherit the land.
 31 And I will set your bounds from the Red sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river, for I'll deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you'll drive them out before you.
 32 You shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
 33 They shall not live in your land, so they don't make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you."

___Exodus chapter 24
 1 And he said to Moses, "Come up to the Lord, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship far off.
 2 And Moses alone shall come near the Lord, but they shall not come near, nor shall the people go up with him."
 3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the judgments, and all the people answered unanimously, "All the words that the Lord has said we will do."
 4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and got up early in the morning, and built an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
 5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the Lord.
 6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
 7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people, and they said, "All that the Lord has said we will do, and be obedient."
 8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, "See the blood of the covenant, that the Lord has made with you concerning all these words."
 9 Then Moses went up, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel,
 10 And they saw the God of Israel, and there was under his feet like a paved work of a sapphire stone, and like the body of heaven in its clearness.
 11 And on the nobles of the children of Israel he didn't lay his hand, also they saw God, and ate and drank.
 12 And the Lord said to Moses, "Come up to me into the mountain, and be there, and I'll give you tables of stone, and a law, and commandments that I've written, so you'll teach them."
 13 And Moses rose up, and his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of God.
 14 And he said to the elders, "Wait for us here, until we come back to you, and see, Aaron and Hur are with you, if any man has any matters to do, let him come to them."
 15 And Moses went up into the mountain, and a cloud covered the mountain.
 16 And the glory of the Lord stayed on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days, and the seventh day he called to Moses out of the middle of the cloud.
 17 And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.
 18 And Moses went into the middle of the cloud, and got himself up into the mountain, and Moses was in the mountain forty days and forty nights.

___Exodus chapter 25
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, for them to bring me an offering, of every man that gives it willingly with his heart you shall take my offering.
 3 And this is the offering that you shall take from them, gold, and silver, and brass,
 4 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair,
 5 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood,
 6 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
 7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
 8 And let them make me a sanctuary, so I can live among them.
 9 According to all that I show you, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments of it, like that you shall make it.
 10 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood, forty five inches shall be the length of it, and twenty seven inches the width of it, and twenty seven inches the height of it.
 11 And you shall plate it with pure gold, inside and outside you shall plate it, and shall make on it a crown of gold around it.
 12 And you shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners of it, and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.
 13 And you shalt make staves of shittim wood, and plate them with gold.
 14 And you shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, so that the ark will be carried with them.
 15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark, they shall not be taken from it.
 16 And you shalt put into the ark the testimony that I'll give you.

 14 You shall keep the sabbath therefore, for it is holy to you, everyone that defiles it shall surely be put to death, for whoever does any work in it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
 15 Six days may work be done, but on the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord, whoever does any work on the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
 16 So the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
 17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever, for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
 18 And he gave to Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him on Mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written by the finger of God."

___Exodus chapter 32
 1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Get up, make us gods, that will go before us, for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him."
 2 And Aaron said to them, "Break off the golden earrings, that are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me."
 3 And all the people broke off the golden earrings that were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
 4 And he received them from them, and fashioned it with an engraving tool, after he had made it into a cast in foundry calf, and they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, that brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
 5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it, and Aaron made proclamation, and said, "Tomorrow is a feast to the Lord."
 6 And they rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings, and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
 7 And the Lord said to Moses, "Go, get down, for your people, that you brought out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves,
 8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way that I commanded them, they have made themselves a cast in foundry calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, These are your gods, O Israel, that have brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
 9 And the Lord said to Moses, "I have seen this people, and see, it is a stiff necked people,
 10 Now therefore let me alone, so my anger will grow hot against them, and so that I will consume them, and I will make of you a great nation."
 11 And Moses begged the Lord his God, and said, "Lord, why does your anger grow hot against your people, that you've brought out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
 12 Why should the Egyptians say, For mischief he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth?  Turn from your fierce anger, and repent of this evil against your people.
 13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, I will multiply your seed like the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of I'll give to your seed, and they shall inherit it forever."
 14 And the Lord repented of the evil that he thought to do to his people.
 15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand, the tables were written on both sides, on the one side and on the other they were written.
 16 And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tables.
 17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is a noise of war in the camp."
 18 And he said, "It is not the voice of those who shout for mastery, nor is it the voice of those who shout for being overcome, but the noise of those who sing, I hear."
 19 And as soon as he came near the camp, he saw the calf, and the dancing, and Moses' anger became hot, and he threw the tables out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.
 20 And he took the calf that they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and spread it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
 21 And Moses said to Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that you've brought so great a sin on them?"
 22 And Aaron said, "Let the anger of my lord not be hot, you know the people, that they are set on mischief.
 23 For they said to me, Make us gods, that will go before us, for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him.
 24 And I said to them, Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.  So they gave it to me, then I threw it into the fire, and there came out this calf."
 25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked, (for Aaron had made them naked to their shame among their enemies,)
 26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Who is on the Lord's side?  Let him come to me."  And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
 27 And he said to them, "Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and kill every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor."
 28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses, and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
 29 For Moses had said, "Consecrate yourselves to day to the Lord, every man on his son, and on his brother, so he will put a blessing on you this day."
 30 And on the next day, Moses said to the people, "You've sinned a great sin, and now I'll go up to the Lord, perhaps I'll make an atonement for your sin."
 31 And Moses returned to the Lord, and said, "Oh, these people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.
 32 Yet now, if you'll forgive their sin--, and if not, erase me, please, out of your book that you've written."
 33 And the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me I'll erase out of my book.
 34 Therefore now go, lead the people to the place of which I've spoken to you, see, my Angel shall go before you, but in the day when I visit, I will visit their sin on them."
 35 And the Lord plagued the people, because they made the calf, that Aaron made.

___Exodus chapter 33
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "Depart, and go up from here, you and the people that you've brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land that I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, to your seed I'll give it,
 2 And I'll send an angel before you, and I'll drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite,
 3 To a land flowing with milk and honey, for I won't go up among you, for you are a stiff necked people, so that I don't consume you on the way."
 4 And when the people heard this bad news, they mourned, and no man put on his ornaments.
 5 For the Lord had said to Moses, "Say to the children of Israel, you are a stiff necked people, I will come up among you in a moment, and consume you, therefore now put off your ornaments from you, so that I'll know what to do to you."
 6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by Mount Horeb.
 7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it outside the camp, far off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation.  And everyone who sought the Lord went out to the tabernacle of the congregation, that was outside the camp.
 8 And when Moses went out to the tabernacle, all the people got up, and stood every man at his tent door, and watched Moses, until he had gone into the tabernacle.
 9 And as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
 10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
 11 And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, like a man speaks to his friend.  And he turned again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, didn't depart out of the tabernacle.
 12 And Moses said to the Lord, "See, you said to me, Bring up this people, and you haven't let me know whom you'll send with me.  Yet you've said, I know you by name, and you've also found grace in my sight.
 13 Now therefore, please, if I've found grace in your sight, show me now your way, so I can know you, so I can find grace in your sight, and consider that this nation is your people."
 14 And he said, "My presence shall go with you, and I'll give you rest."
 15 And he said to him, "If your presence doesn't go with me, don't carry us up from here.
 16 For how shall it be known here that I and your people have found grace in your sight?  Is it not in that you go with us?  So shall we be separated, I and your people, from all the people that are on the face of the earth."
 17 And the Lord said to Moses, "I will do this thing also that you've said, for you've found grace in my sight, and I know you by name."
 18 And he said, "I beg you, show me your glory."
 19 And he said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I'll proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy."
 20 And he said, "You can't see my face, for there shall no man see me, and live."
 21 And the Lord said, "See, there is a place by me, and you'll stand on a rock,
 22 And while my glory passes by, I'll put you in a clift of the rock, and will cover you with my hand while I pass by,
 23 And I will take away my hand, and you'll see my back parts, but my face won't be seen."

___Exodus chapter 34
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "Cut two tables of stone like the first, and I'll write on these tables the words that were in the first tables, that you broke.
 2 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me in the top of the mountain.
 3 And no man shall come up with you, and don't let any man be seen throughout all the mountain, nor let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain."
 4 And he cut two tables of stone like the first, and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, like the Lord had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.
 5 And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord.
 6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, "The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, long suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the sin of the fathers on the children, and on the children's children, to the third and to the fourth generation."
 8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
 9 And he said, "If now I have found grace in your sight, O Lord, let my Lord, please, go among us, for they are a stiff necked people, and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance."
 10 And he said, "See, I make a covenant, before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation, and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord, for it is a terrible thing that I'll do with you.
 11 Observe that which I command you this day, see, I drive out before you the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
 12 Take heed to yourself, so you don't make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you go, so it won't be for a snare among you,
 13 But you shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves,
 14 For you shall worship no other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God,
 15 So you don't make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice to their gods, and someone calls you, and you eat of his sacrifice,
 16 And you take of their daughters for your sons, and their daughters go whoring after their gods, and make your sons go whoring after their gods.
 17 You shall make you no gods from melted metal.
 18 The feast of unleavened bread you shall keep.  Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, like I commanded you, in the time of the month Abib, for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt.
 19 All that opens the womb is mine, and every firstling among your cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.
 20 But the firstling of an ass you shalt redeem with a lamb, and if you don't redeem him, then you shall break its neck.  All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem.  And no one shall appear before me empty.
 21 Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest, in earing time and in harvest you shall rest.
 22 And you shall observe the feast of weeks, of the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of in gathering at the year's end.
 23 Three times a the year all your men children shall appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
 24 For I will throw out the nations before you, and enlarge your borders, nor shall any man desire your land, when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times a year.
 25 You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven, nor shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left until the morning.
 26 The first of the first fruits of your land you shall bring to the house of the Lord your God.  You shall not boil a kid in his mother's milk."
 27 And the Lord said to Moses, "Write these words, for after the meaning of these words I've made a covenant with you and with Israel."
 28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights, he neither ate bread, nor drank water.  And he wrote on the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
 29 And when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mountain, Moses didn't know that the skin of his face shined while he talked with him.
 30 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, see, the skin of his face shined, and they were afraid to come near him.
 31 And Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him, and Moses talked with them.
 32 And afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in Mount Sinai.
 33 And until Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face.
 34 But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out.  And he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel what he had been commanded.
 35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shined, and Moses put the vail on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

___Exodus chapter 35
 1 And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and said to them, "These are the words that the Lord has commanded, that you should do them.
 2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of rest to the Lord, whoever does work in it shall be put to death.
 3 You shall not start a fire throughout your habitations on the sabbath day."
 4 And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing that the Lord commanded, saying,
 5 Take from among youselves an offering to the Lord, whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the Lord, gold, and silver, and brass,
 6 And blue, and purple, and red, and fine linen, and goats' hair,
 7 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood,
 8 And oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,
 9 And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate.
 10 And every wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the Lord has commanded,
 11 The tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its taches, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets,
 12 The ark, and the staves of it, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,
 13 The table, and its staves, and all its containers, and the showbread,
 14 The candlestick also for the light, and its furniture, and its lamps, with the oil for the light,
 15 And the incense altar, and its staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle,
 16 The altar of burnt offering, with its brass grate, its staves, and all its containers, the wash basin and its base,
 17 The hangings of the court, its pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court,
 18 The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords,
 19 The cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office."
 20 And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.
 21 And they came, everyone whose heart stirred him up, and everyone whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the Lord's offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.
 22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold, and every man that offered, offered an offering of gold to the Lord.
 23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and red cloth, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them.
 24 Everyone that offered an offering of silver and brass brought the Lord's offering, and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought it.
 25 And all the women that were wise hearted did the spinning with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of red, and of fine linen.
 26 And all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair.
 27 And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate,
 28 And spice, and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.
 29 The children of Israel brought a willing offering to the Lord, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all kinds of work that the Lord had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.
 30 And Moses said to the children of Israel, "See, the Lord has called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
 31 And he has filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,
 32 And to devise curious works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
 33 And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to make any kind of cunning work.
 34 And he has put in his heart to teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
 35 He has filled them with wisdom of heart, to work all kinds of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in red, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of those who do any work, and of those who devise cunning work.

___Exodus chapter 36
 1 Then Bezaleel and Aholiab worked, and every wise hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all kinds of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded.
 2 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it,
 3 And they received from Moses all the offering, that the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it out of.  And they also brought to him free offerings every morning.
 4 And all the wise men, that did all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work that they made,
 5 And they spoke to Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which the Lord commanded to make."
 6 And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, "Let neither man nor woman make anymore work for the offering of the sanctuary."  So the people were restrained from bringing.
 7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
 8 And every wise hearted man among them that did the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and red, with angels of cunning work did he make them.
 9 The length of one curtain was forty two feet, and the width of one curtain six feet, the curtains were all the same size.
 10 And he coupled the five curtains to each other, and the other five curtains he coupled to each other.
 11 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the edge in the coupling, likewise he made in the farthest side of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.
 12 He made fifty loops in one curtain, and fifty loops he made in the edge of the curtain that was in the coupling of the second, the loops held one curtain to another.
 13 And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains to each other with the taches, so it became one tabernacle.
 14 And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle, he made eleven curtains.
 15 The length of one curtain was forty five feet, and six feet was the width of one curtain, the eleven curtains were the same size.
 16 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.
 17 And he made fifty loops on the farthest edge of the curtain in the coupling, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that couples the second.
 18 And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, so that it would be one.
 19 And he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that.
 20 And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up.
 21 The length of a board was fifteen feet, and the width of a board twenty seven inches.
 22 One board had two tenons, equally distant from each other, he did like that for all the boards of the tabernacle.

 24 And forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards, two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
 25 And for the other side of the tabernacle, that is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,
 26 And their forty sockets of silver, two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

 30 And there were eight boards, and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, two sockets under every board.
 31 And he made bars of shittim wood, five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
 32 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the sides westward.

 1 And of the blue, and purple, and red, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 2 And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and red, and fine twined linen.
 3 And they beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to work it in the blue, and in the purple, and in the red, and in the fine linen, with cunning work.
 4 They made shoulder pieces for it, to couple it together, by the two edges it was coupled together.
 5 And the curious girdle of his ephod, that was on it, was of the same, according to the work of it, of gold, blue, and purple, and red, and fine twined linen, as the Lord commanded Moses.

 14 And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a seal of verification, everyone with his name, according to the twelve tribes.
 15 And they made on the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathen work of pure gold.
 16 And they made two ouches of gold, and two gold rings, and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate.
 17 And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.

 20 And they made two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the front of it, opposite the other coupling of it, above the curious girdle of the ephod.
 21 And they tied the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, so it would be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and so the breastplate wouldn't come loose from ephod, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 22 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.
 23 And there was a hole in the middle of the robe, like the hole of a chain mail vest, with a band around the hole, so it wouldn't tear.
 24 And they made on the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and red, and twined linen.

___Exodus chapter 40
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "On the first day of the first month you shall set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
 3 And you shall put in it the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
 4 And you shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order on it, and you shall bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps of it.
 5 And you shall set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.
 6 And you shall set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
 7 And you shalt set the wash basin between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shall put water in it.
 8 And you shall set up the court around it, and hang up the hanging at the court gate.
 9 And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is in it, and shall hallow it, and all the containers of it, and it shall be holy.
 10 And you shall anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all its containers, and sanctify the altar, and it shall be an altar most holy.
 11 And you shall anoint the wash basin and its base, and sanctify it.
 12 And you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
 13 And you shall put on Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him, so he can minister to me in the priest's office.
 14 And you shall bring his sons, and clothe them with coats,
 15 And you shall anoint them, like you anointed their father, so they can minister to me in the priest's office, for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
 16 Thus did Moses, according to all that the Lord commanded him, so did he.
 17 And in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was raised up.
 18 And Moses raised up the tabernacle, and fastened its sockets, and set up the boards of it, and put in the bars of it, and raised up its pillars.
 19 And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above on it, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 20 And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark,
 21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 22 And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, on the side of the tabernacle northward, outside the vail.
 23 And he set the bread in order on it before the Lord, like the Lord had commanded Moses.
 24 And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, opposite the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
 25 And he lighted the lamps before the Lord, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 26 And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail,
 27 And he burnt sweet incense on it, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 28 And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.
 29 And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meat offering, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 30 And he set the wash basin between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash with.
 31 And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet there,
 32 When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near the altar, they washed, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 33 And he reared up the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court gate.  So Moses finished the work.
 34 Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
 35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud stayed on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
 36 And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys,
 37 But if the cloud wasn't taken up, then they didn't journey 'til the day that it was taken up.
 38 For the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.

 11 And he shall put off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.
 12 And the fire on the altar shall be burning in it, it shall not be put out, and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it, and he shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings.
 13 The fire shall always be burning on the altar, it shall never go out.
 14 And this is the law of the meat offering, the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord, before the altar.
 15 And he shall take his handful from it, of the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil of it, and all the frankincense that is on the meat offering, and shall burn it on the altar for a sweet odor, even the memorial of it, to the Lord.
 16 And the remainder of it shall Aaron and his sons eat, with unleavened bread it shall be eaten in the holy place, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall eat it.
 17 It shall not be baked with leaven.  I have given it to them for their portion of my offerings made by fire, it is most holy, as is the sin offering, and as the trespass offering.
 18 All the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it.  It shall be a statute forever in your generations concerning the offerings of the Lord made by fire, everyone that touches them shall be holy."
 19 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 20 "This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, that they shall offer to the Lord in the day when he is anointed, one tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a perpetual meat offering, half of it in the morning, and half of it at night.
 21 It shall be made with oil in a pan, and when it is baked, you shall bring it in, and you shall offer the baked pieces of the meat offering for a sweet odor to the Lord.
 22 And the priest of his sons that is anointed instead of him shall offer it, it is a statute forever to the Lord, it shall be completely burnt.
 23 For every meat offering for the priest shall be completely burnt, it shall not be eaten."
 24 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 25 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin offering, In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the Lord, it is most holy.
 26 The priest that offers it for sin shall eat it, it shall be eaten in the holy place, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 27 Whatever touches the flesh of it shall be holy, and when there is sprinkled some of the blood of it on any garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled in the holy place.
 28 But the clay pot in which it was sodden shall be broken, and if it is sodden in a brass pot, it shall be scoured, and rinsed in water.
 29 All the males among the priests shall eat of it, it is most holy.
 30 And no sin offering, from which any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation for the removing of sin in the holy place, shall be eaten, it shall be burnt in the fire."

___Leviticus chapter 7
 1 "Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering, it is most holy.
 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the trespass offering, and he shall sprinkle the blood of it around on the altar.
 3 And he shall offer of it all of its fat, the rump, and the fat that covers the inwards,
 4 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, that is by the flanks, and the caul that is above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,
 5 And the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to the Lord, it is a trespass offering.
 6 Every male among the priests shall eat of it, it shall be eaten in the holy place, it is most holy.
 7 Like the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering, there is one law for them, the priest that makes atonement with it shall have it.
 8 And the priest that offers any man's burnt offering, the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering that he has offered.
 9 And all the meat offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying pan, and in the pan, shall be the priest's that offers it.
 10 And every meat offering, mixed with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, equal shares.
 11 And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that he shall offer to the Lord.
 12 If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed with oil, of fried fine flour.
 13 Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.
 14 And of it he shall offer one out of the whole offering for a heave offering to the Lord, and it shall be the priest's that sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings.
 15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered, he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
 16 But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offers his sacrifice, and on the next day also, the remainder of it shall be eaten,
 17 But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
 18 And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be credited to him that offers it, it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eats of it shall bear his sin.
 19 And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten, it shall be burnt with fire, and as for the flesh, all that are clean shall eat of it.
 20 But the soul that eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that pertain to the Lord, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.
 21 Also the soul that touches any unclean thing, like the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean thing, and eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that pertain to the Lord, that soul shall be cut off from his people."
 22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 23 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, You shall eat no kind of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
 24 And the fat of the animal that dies by itself, and the fat of that which is torn by animals, may be used in any other use, but you shall in no way eat it.
 25 For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, the soul that eats it shall be cut off from his people.
 26 Also you shall eat no kind of blood, whether it is of bird or of animal, in any of your dwellings.
 27 Whatever soul it is that eats any kind of blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people."
 28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 29 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, He that offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to the Lord shall bring his offering to the Lord of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
 30 His own hands shall bring the offerings of the Lord made by fire, the fat with the breast, he shall bring it, so that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before the Lord.
 31 And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
 32 And the right shoulder you shall give to the priest for a heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
 33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
 34 For the wave breast and the heave shoulder I have taken from the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons by a statute forever from among the children of Israel.
 35 This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to the Lord in the priest's office,
 36 Which the Lord commanded to be given to them from the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, by a statute forever throughout their generations.
 37 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meat offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the peace offerings,
 38 That the Lord commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, on the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations to the Lord, in the wilderness of Sinai."

___Leviticus chapter 8
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread,
 3 And gather all the congregation together to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation."
 4 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and the assembly was gathered together to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 5 And Moses said to the congregation, This is the thing that the Lord commanded to be done.
 6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.
 7 And he put on him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod on him, and he clothed him with the curious girdle of the ephod, and tied it to him with it.
 8 And he put the breastplate on him, also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
 9 And he put the priest's hat on his head, also on the priest's hat, on its front, he put the golden plate, the holy crown, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 10 And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them.
 11 And he sprinkled from it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its containers, both the wash basin and his base, to sanctify them.
 12 And he poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.
 13 And Moses brought Aaron's sons, and put coats on them, and clothed them with girdles, and put hats on them, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 14 And he brought the bullock for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bullock for the sin offering.
 15 And he killed it, and Moses took the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar around it with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured the blood at the bottom of the altar, and sanctified it, to make peace with God on it.
 16 And he took all the fat that was on the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses burned it on the altar.
 17 But the bullock, and its hide, its flesh, and its dung, he burnt with fire outside the camp, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 18 And he brought the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
 19 And he killed it, and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar around it.
 20 And he cut the ram into pieces, and Moses burnt the head, and the pieces, and the fat.
 21 And he washed the inwards and the legs in water, and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar, it was a burnt sacrifice for a sweet odor, and an offering made by fire to the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 22 And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
 23 And he killed it, and Moses took some of the blood of it, and put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.
 24 And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put some of the blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet, and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar around it.
 25 And he took the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that was on the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right shoulder,
 26 And out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before the Lord, he took one unleavened cake, and a cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and put them on the fat, and on the right shoulder,
 27 And he put all of it on Aaron's hands, and on his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the Lord.
 28 And Moses took them off their hands, and burnt them on the altar on the burnt offering, they were consecrations for a sweet odor, it is an offering made by fire to the Lord.
 29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before the Lord, for of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 30 And Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood that was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, and on his garments, and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him, and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
 31 And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of consecrations, like I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.
 32 And that which remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire.
 33 And you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation in seven days, until the days of your consecration have ended, for seven days shall he consecrate you.
 34 As he has done this day, so the Lord has commanded to do, to make an atonement for you.
 35 Therefore you shall stay at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation day and night seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, so you don't die, for so I've been commanded."
 36 So Aaron and his sons did all things that the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.

___Leviticus chapter 9
 1 And on the eighth day, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel,
 2 And he said to Aaron, "Take a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
 3 And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, Take a kid of the goats for a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering,
 4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a meat offering mixed with oil, for today the Lord will appear to you."
 5 And they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the congregation came near and stood before the Lord.
 6 And Moses said, "This is the thing that the Lord commanded that you should do, and the glory of the Lord shall appear to you."
 7 And Moses said to Aaron, "Go to the altar, and offer your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make an atonement for yourself, and for the people, and offer the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them, like the Lord commanded."
 8 Aaron therefore went to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, that was for himself.
 9 And the sons of Aaron brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar,
 10 But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burned on the altar, like the Lord commanded Moses.
 11 And the flesh and the hide he burned with fire outside the camp.
 12 And he killed the burnt offering, and Aaron's sons presented to him the blood, that he sprinkled around it on the altar.
 13 And they presented the burnt offering to him, with the pieces of it, and the head, and he burned them on the altar.
 14 And he washed the inwards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar.
 15 And he brought the people's offering, and took the goat that was the sin offering for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, like the first.
 16 And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the manner.
 17 And he brought the meat offering, and took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.
 18 He also killed the bullock and the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings that was for the people, and Aaron's sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar around it,
 19 And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and what covers the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver,
 20 And they put the fat on the breasts, and he burned the fat on the altar,
 21 And Aaron waved the breasts and the right shoulder for a wave offering before the Lord, like Moses commanded.
 22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
 23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people, and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people.
 24 And a fire came out from before the Lord, and consumed on the altar the burnt offering and the fat, which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.

___Leviticus chapter 10
 1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and put incense on it, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he didn't command them to do.
 2 And fire went out from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.
 3 Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the Lord spoke, saying, I will be sanctified in those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified."  And Aaron kept quiet.
 4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Come near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp."
 5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, like Moses had said.
 6 And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, "Don't uncover your heads, nor tear your clothes, so you don't die, and so anger doesn't come on all the people, but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning that the Lord has kindled.
 7 And you shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, so you don't die, for the anointing oil of the Lord is on you."  And they did according to the word of Moses.
 8 And the Lord spoke to Aaron, saying,
 9 "Don't drink wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the tabernacle of the congregation, so you don't die, it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations,
 10 And so that you'll put a difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean,
 11 And so that you'll teach the children of Israel all the statutes that the Lord has spoken to them by the hand of Moses."
 12 And Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons that were left, "Take the meat offering that remains of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar, for it is most holy,
 13 And you shall eat it in the holy place, because it is your due, and your sons' due, of the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, for so I've been commanded.
 14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you, for they are your due, and your sons' due, which have been given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel.
 15 They shall bring the heave shoulder and the wave breast with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the Lord, and it shall be yours, and your sons' with you, by a statute forever, like the Lord has commanded.
 16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and see, it was burnt, and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left alive, saying,
 17 "Why haven't you eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God has given it you to carry the sin of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord?
 18 See, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place, you should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, like I commanded."
 19 And Aaron said to Moses, "See, this day they've offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord, and such things have happened to me, and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been accepted in the sight of the Lord?"

 20 And when Moses heard that, he was satisfied.

___Leviticus chapter 11
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These are the animals that you shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
 3 Whatever has a divided hoof, and is split footed, and chews the cud among the animals, you can eat.
 4 But these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those that divide the hoof, like the camel, because it chews the cud, but doesn't have a divided hoof, it is unclean to you.
 5 And the coney, because it chews the cud, but doesn't have a divided hoof, it is unclean to you.
 6 And the hare, because it chews the cud, but doesn't divide the hoof, it is unclean to you.
 7 And the swine, though it has a divided hoof, and is split-footed, yet it doesn't chew the cud, it is unclean to you.
 8 You shall not eat of their flesh , and their carcase you shall not touch, they are unclean to you.
 9 These you shall eat of all that are in the waters, whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, those you shall eat.
 10 And all that don't have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing that is in the waters, they shall be garbage to you,
 11 They shall be garbage to you, you shall not eat their flesh, but you shall hate their dead bodies.
 12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be garbage to you.
 13 And these are those that you shall have as garbage among the birds, they shall not be eaten, they are garbage, the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
 14 And the vulture, and the kite after its kind,
 15 Every raven after its kind,
 16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after its kind,
 17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
 18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
 19 And the stork, the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
 20 All birds that creep, going on all four, shall be garbage to you.
 21 Yet these you can eat of every flying creeping thing that goes on all four, that have legs above their feet, to jump with on the earth,
 22 These you can eat, the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.
 23 But all other flying creeping things, that have four feet, shall be garbage to you.
 24 And for these you shall be unclean, whoever touches the dead body of them shall be unclean until evening.
 25 And whoever carries any of the dead bodies of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening.
 26 The dead bodies of every animal that has a divided hoof, and is not split footed, and doesn't chew the cud, are unclean to you, everyone that touches them shall be unclean.
 27 And whatever goes on its paws, among all kinds of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean to you, whoever touches their carcase shall be unclean until the evening.
 28 And he that carries the dead body of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening, they are unclean to you.
 29 These also shall be unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,
 30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
 31 These are unclean to you among all that creep, whoever touches them, when they are dead, shall be unclean until evening.
 32 And on whatever any of them falls, when they are dead, it shall be unclean, whether it's any container of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever container it is, in which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until evening, so it shall be cleansed.
 33 And every clay pot, into which any of them falls, whatever is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.
 34 Of all food that can be eaten, that on which such water comes shall be unclean, and all drink that can be drunk in every such container shall be unclean.
 35 And everything on which any part of their carcase falls shall be unclean, whether it is oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down, for they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
 36 But a fountain or pit, in which there is plenty of water, shall be clean, but that which touches their dead body shall be unclean.
 37 And if any part of their dead body falls on any planting seed that is to be planted, it shall be clean.
 38 But if any water has been put on the seed, and any part of their carcase falls on it, it shall be unclean to you.
 39 And if any animal dies, of which you can eat, he that touches the dead body of it shall be unclean until evening.
 40 And he that eats of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening, he also that carries the dead body of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening.
 41 And every creeping thing that creeps on the earth shall be seen as garbage, it shall not be eaten.
 42 Whatever goes on the belly, and whatever goes on all four, or whatever has more feet among all creeping things that creep on the earth, those you shall not eat, for they are garbage.
 43 You shall not make yourselves polluted with any creeping thing that creeps, nor shall you make yourselves unclean with them, so that you're defiled by them.
 44 For I am the Lord your God, you shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy, for I am holy, nor shall you defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that creeps on the earth.
 45 For I am the Lord that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God, you shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
 46 This is the law of the animals, and of the birds, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
 47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the animal that can be eaten and the animal that can't be eaten."

___Leviticus chapter 12
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a woman has conceived seed, and given birth to a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days, according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
 3 And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
 4 And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying thirty three days, she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying have been fulfilled.
 5 But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation, and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying sixty six days.
 6 And when the days of her purifying have been fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to the priest,
 7 Who shall offer it before the Lord, and make an atonement for her, and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood.  This is the law for her that has given birth to a male or a female.
 8 And if she's not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering, and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean."

___Leviticus chapter 13
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
 2 "When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it's in the skin of his flesh like the plague of leprosy, then he shall be brought to Aaron the priest, or to one of his sons the priests,
 3 And the priest shall look at the plague in the skin of the flesh, and when the hair in the plague has turned white, and the plague in sight is deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy, and the priest shall look at him, and pronounce him unclean.
 4 If the bright spot is white in the skin of his flesh, and is not deeper in sight than the skin, and the hair of it hasn't turned white, then the priest shall shut him up that has the plague for seven days,
 5 And the priest shall look at him the seventh day, and see, if the plague in his sight has stopped, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, then the priest shall shut him up for seven days more,
 6 And the priest shall look at him again the seventh day, and see, if the plague is somewhat dark, and the plague hasn't spread in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean, it is just a scab, and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
 7 But if the scab has spread a lot in the skin, after he has been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen by the priest again,
 8 And if the priest sees that the scab spreads in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a leprosy.
 9 When the plague of leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought to the priest,
 10 And the priest shall see him, and if the rising is white in the skin, and it has turned the hair white, and there is living raw flesh in the rising,
 11 It is an old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up, for he is unclean.
 12 And if a leprosy breaks out in the skin, and the leprosy covers all the skin of him that has the plague from his head even to his foot, wherever the priest looks,
 13 Then the priest shall consider, and see, if the leprosy has covered all his flesh, he shall pronounce him clean that has the plague, it has all turned white, he is clean.
 14 But when raw flesh appears in him, he shall be unclean.
 15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean, for the raw flesh is unclean, it is a leprosy.
 16 Or if the raw flesh turns back, and has changed to white, he shall come to the priest,
 17 And the priest shall see him, and if the plague has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce him clean that has the plague, he is clean.
 18 The flesh also in which, in the skin of it, was a boil, and has healed,
 19 And in place of the boil there is a white rising, or a bright spot, white, and a little reddish, and it is shown to the priest,
 20 And if, when the priest sees it, it is in sight lower than the skin, and the hair of it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil.
 21 But if the priest looks at it, and there are no white hairs in it, and if it's not lower than the skin, but is somewhat dark, then the priest shall shut him up seven days,
 22 And if it spreads much in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a plague.
 23 But if the bright spot stays in its place, and doesn't spread, it is a burning boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
 24 Or, if there is any flesh, in the skin of which there is a hot burning, and the quick flesh that burns has a white bright spot, a little reddish, or white,
 25 Then the priest shall look on it, and if the hair in the bright spot has turned white, and it is in sight deeper than the skin, it is a leprosy broken out of the burning, so the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is the plague of leprosy.
 26 But if the priest looks at it, and there's no white hair in the bright spot, and it is no lower than the other skin, but is a little dark, then the priest shall shut him up seven days,
 27 And the priest shall look at him the seventh day, and if it has spread a lot in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is the plague of leprosy.
 28 And if the bright spot stays in its place, and doesn't spread in the skin, but is a little dark, it is a rising of the burning, and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is an inflammation of the burning.
 29 If a man or woman has a plague on the head or the beard,
 30 Then the priest shall see the plague, and if it's in sight deeper than the skin, and there is in it a yellow thin hair, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a dry scall, a leprosy on the head or beard.
 31 And if the priest looks at the plague of the scall, and it is not in sight deeper than the skin, and if there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall shut him up that has the plague of the scall seven days,
 32 And on the seventh day the priest shall look at the plague, and if the scall doesn't spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the scall is not in sight deeper than the skin,
 33 He shall be shaved, but he shall not shave the scall, and the priest shall shut him up that has the scall seven days more,
 34 And on the seventh day the priest shall look at the scall, and if the scall hasn't spread in the skin, nor is in sight deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean, and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
 35 But if the scall has spread a lot in the skin after his cleansing,
 36 Then the priest shall look at him, and see, if the scall has spread in the skin, the priest shall not seek for yellow hair, he is unclean.
 37 But if the scall has stopped in his sight, and black hair has grown up in it, the scall has healed, he is clean, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
 38 If a man also or a woman has in the skin of their flesh white bright spots,
 39 Then the priest shall look, and if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh are darkish white, it is a freckled spot that grows in the skin, he is clean.
 40 And the man whose hair has fallen off his head, he is bald, yet he is clean.
 41 And he that has his hair fallen off from the part of his head toward his face, he is forehead bald, yet he is clean.
 42 And if there is in the bald head, or bald forehead, a white reddish sore, it is a leprosy that has sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
 43 Then the priest shall look at it, and if the rising of the sore is white reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appears in the skin of the flesh,
 44 He is a leprous man, he is unclean, the priest shall pronounce him completely unclean, his plague is in his head.
 45 And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothes shall be torn, and his head bare, and he shall put a covering on his upper lip, and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
 46 All the days in which the plague shall be in him he shall be defiled, he is unclean, he shall live alone, his habitation shall be outside the camp.
 47 The garment also that the plague of leprosy is in, whether it's a woolen garment, or a linen garment,
 48 Whether it's in the warp, or woof, of linen, or of wool, whether in a skin, or in anything made of skin,
 49 And if the plague is greenish or reddish in the garment, or in the skin, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be shown to the priest,
 50 And the priest shall look at the plague, and shut up whoever has the plague seven days,
 51 And he shall look at the plague on the seventh day, if the plague has spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, or in any work that is made of skin, the plague is a fretting leprosy, it is unclean.
 52 He shall therefore burn that garment, whether warp or woof, in wool or in linen, or anything of skin, in which the plague is, for it is a fretting leprosy, it shall be burnt in the fire.
 53 And if the priest shall look, and the plague has not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin,
 54 Then the priest shall command that they wash the thing in which the plague is, and he shall shut it up seven days more,
 55 And the priest shall look at the plague, after it's been washed, and see, if the plague has not changed its color, and the plague has not spread, it is unclean, you shall burn it in the fire, it has fret inward, whether it's bare inside or outside.
 56 And if the priest looks, and the plague is somewhat dark after it's been washed, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the woof,
 57 And if it still appears in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in anything of skin, it is a spreading plague, you shall burn the thing in which the plague is with fire.
 58 And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatever thing of skin it is, that you shall wash, if the plague has gone from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean.
 59 This is the law of the plague of leprosy in a garment of wool or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or anything of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean."

___Leviticus chapter 14
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing, He shall be brought to the priest,
 3 And the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall look, and if the plague of leprosy has healed in the leper,
 4 Then shall the priest command to take for the person that is to be cleansed two clean, living birds, and cedar wood, and red cloth, and hyssop,
 5 And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in clay pot over running water,
 6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the red cloth, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water,
 7 And he shall sprinkle on him that is to be cleansed from leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
 8 And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water, so he'll be clean, and after that he shall come into the camp, and shall wait outside out of his tent seven days.
 9 But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, he shall shave off all his hair, and he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water, and he shall be clean.
 10 And on the eighth day he shall take two male lambs without blemish, and one female lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.
 11 And the priest that makes him clean shall present the man that is to be made clean, and those things, before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
 12 And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the Lord,
 13 And he shall kill the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin offering and the burnt offering, in the holy place, for as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the trespass offering, it is most holy,
 14 And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot,
 15 And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand,
 16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord,
 17 And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand, the priest shall put on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the blood of the trespass offering,
 18 And the remainder of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall pour on the head of him that is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord.
 19 And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness, and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering,
 20 And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering on the altar, and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and he shall be clean.
 21 And if he is poor, and can't get so much, then he shall take one lamb for a trespass offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him, and one tenth deal of fine flour mixed with oil for a meat offering, and a log of oil,
 22 And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get, and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.
 23 And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the Lord.
 24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the Lord,
 25 And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot,
 26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand,
 27 And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord,
 28 And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the trespass offering,
 29 And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before the Lord.
 30 And he shall offer one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons, such as he can get,
 31 Such as he is able to get, one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering, and the priest shall make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the Lord.
 32 This is the law of him that has the plague of leprosy, whose hand is not able to get that which pertains to his cleansing."
 33 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 34 "When you've come into the land of Canaan, that I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession,
 35 And he that owns the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seems to me there is like a plague in the house,
 36 Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest goes into it to see the plague, so that all that is in the house isn't made unclean, and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house,
 37 And he shall look at the plague, and if the plague is in the walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight are lower than the wall,
 38 Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days,
 39 And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look, and see, if the plague has spread in the walls of the house,
 40 Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall throw them into an unclean place outside the city,
 41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped inside all around, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off outside the city into an unclean place,
 42 And they shall take other stones, and put them instead of those stones, and he shall take other mortar, and shall plaster the house.
 43 And if the plague comes back, and breaks out in the house, after he has taken away the stones, and after he has scraped the house, and after it has been plastered,
 44 Then the priest shall come and look, and if the plague has spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house, it is unclean.
 45 And he shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the wood of it, and all the mortar of the house, and he shall carry them out of the city into an unclean place.
 46 Also he that goes into the house all the while that it was shut up shall be unclean until evening.
 47 And he that lies in the house shall wash his clothes, and he that eats in the house shall wash his clothes.
 48 And if the priest shall come in, and look at it, and the plague hasn't spread in the house, after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague has been healed.
 49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and red cloth, and hyssop,
 50 And he shall kill one of the birds in a clay pot over running water,
 51 And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the red cloth, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the killed bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times,
 52 And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the red cloth,
 53 But he shall let the living bird go outside the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.
 54 This is the law for all kinds of plague of leprosy, and scall,
 55 And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,
 56 And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot,
 57 To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean, this is the law of leprosy."

 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When any man has a running issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean.
 3 And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue, whether his flesh runs with his issue, or his flesh has stopped from his issue, it is his uncleanness.
 4 Every bed on which he that has the issue lies is unclean, and everything on which he sits, shall be unclean.
 5 And whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 6 And he that sits on anything on which he sat that has the issue, shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 7 And he that touches the flesh of him that has the issue shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 8 And if he that has the issue spits on him that is clean, then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 9 And whatever saddle he rides on that has the issue shall be unclean.
 10 And whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until evening, and he that carries any of those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 11 And whomever he touches that has the issue, and hasn't rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 12 And the clay pot that he touches who has the issue shall be broken, and every container of wood shall be rinsed in water.
 13 And when he that has an issue has been cleansed from his issue, then he shall number to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean.
 14 And on the eighth day he shall take for himself two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and come before the Lord to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and give them to the priest,
 15 And the priest shall offer them, one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord for his issue.
 16 And if any man's seed of copulation goes out of him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until evening.
 17 And every garment, and every skin, on which is the seed of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until evening.
 18 The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of copulation, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until evening.
 19 And if a woman has an issue, and her issue in her flesh is blood, she shall be put apart seven days, and whoever touches her shall be unclean until evening.
 20 And everything that she lies on in her separation shall be unclean, everything also that she sits on shall be unclean.
 21 And whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 22 And whosoever touches anything that she sat on shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 23 And if it is on her bed, or on anything on which she sits, when he touches it, he shall be unclean until evening.
 24 And if any man lies with her at all, and her flowers are on him, he shall be unclean seven days, and all the bed on which he lies shall be unclean.
 25 And if a woman has blood going out of her many days out of the time of her separation, or if it runs beyond the time of her separation, all the days of the issue of her uncleanness shall be like the days of her separation, she shall be unclean.
 26 Every bed on which she lies all the days of her issue shall be to her like the bed of her separation, and whatever she sits on shall be unclean, like the uncleanness of her separation.
 27 And whoever touches those things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening.
 28 But if she is cleansed from her issue, then she shall number to herself seven days, and after that she shall be clean.
 29 And on the eighth day she shall take for herself two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, and bring them to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 30 And the priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and the priest shall make an atonement for her before the Lord for the flow of her uncleanness.
 31 Thus you shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness, so that they don't die in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that is among them.
 32 This is the law of him that has an issue, and of him whose seed goes from him, and is defiled by it,
 33 And of her that is sick of her menstrual fluids, and of him that has a flow, of the man, and of the woman, and of him that lies with her that is unclean."

___Leviticus chapter 16
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the Lord, and died,
 2 And the Lord said to Moses, "Speak to Aaron your brother, that he shouldn't come just any time into the holy place inside the vail before the mercy seat, that is on the ark, so that he doesn't die, for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.
 3 Thus Aaron shall come into the holy place, with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
 4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen pants on his flesh, and shall be clothed with a linen girdle, and he shall be attired with the linen priest's hat, these are holy garments, therefore he shall wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
 5 And he shall take two kids of the goats from the congregation of the children of Israel for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
 6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
 7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 8 And Aaron shall draw straws for the two goats, one straw for the Lord, and the other straw for the scapegoat.
 9 And Aaron shall bring the goat on which the Lord's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
 10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
 11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering that is for himself,
 12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it inside the vail,
 13 And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, so that the cloud of the incense will cover the mercy seat that is on the testimony, so he doesn't die.
 14 And he shall take some of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat eastward, and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
 15 Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring its blood inside the vail, and do with that blood like he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat,
 16 And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins, and he shall do like that for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remains among them among their uncleanness.
 17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goes in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he comes out, and has made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel.
 18 And he shall go out to the altar that is before the Lord, and make an atonement for it, and shall take some of the blood of the bullock, and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar around it.
 19 And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
 20 And when he has made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat,
 21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the sins of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness,
 22 And the goat shall carry on him all their sins to a land not inhabited, and he shall let the goat go in the wilderness.
 23 And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there,
 24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come out, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
 25 And he shall burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.
 26 And he that let the goat go for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.
 27 And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall someone carry outside the camp, and they shall burn their skins in the fire, and their flesh, and their dung.
 28 And he that burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
 29 And this shall be a statute forever to you, that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it is one of your own country, or a stranger that is a visitor among you,
 30 For on that day the priest shall make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, so that you'll be clean from all your sins before the Lord.
 31 It shall be a sabbath of rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls, by a statute forever.
 32 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office instead of his father, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, the holy garments,
 33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
 34 And this shall be an everlasting statute to you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year."  And he did as the Lord commanded Moses.

___Leviticus chapter 17
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, This is the thing that the Lord has has commanded, saying,
 3 Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, that kills an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that kills it outside of the camp,
 4 And doesn't bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord, blood shall be imputed to that man, he has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people,
 5 So that the children of Israel will bring their sacrifices that they offer in the open field, so that they'll bring them to the Lord, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to the priest, and offer them for peace offerings to the Lord.
 6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet odor to the Lord.
 7 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices to devils, after whom they have gone whoring.  This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.
 8 And you shall say to them, Whichever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who are visiting among you, that offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
 9 And doesn't bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it to the Lord, that man shall be cut off from among his people.
 10 And whatever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that are visitors among you, that eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul that eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
 11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make an atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes an atonement for the soul.
 12 Therefore I said to the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger that visits among you eat blood.
 13 And whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that's a visitor among you, who hunts and catches any animal or bird that can be eaten, he shall pour out the blood of it, and cover it with dust.
 14 For it is the life of all flesh, the blood of it is for the life of it, therefore I said to the children of Israel, you shall eat the blood of no kind of flesh, for the life of all flesh is the blood of it, whoever eats it shall be cut off.
 15 And every soul that eats that which died of itself, or that which was torn by animals, whether it is one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until evening, then he shall be clean.
 16 But if he doesn't wash them, nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his sin."

___Leviticus chapter 18
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I am the Lord your God.
 3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, where you lived, you shall not do, and after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, you shall not do, nor shall you walk in their ordinances.
 4 You shall do my judgments, and keep my ordinances, to walk in them, I am the Lord your God.
 5 You shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments, which if a man does, he shall live in them, I am the Lord.
 6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness, I am the Lord.
 7 The nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother, you shall not uncover, she is your mother, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
 8 The nakedness of your father's wife you shall not uncover, it is your father's nakedness.
 9 The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or daughter of your mother, whether she is born at home, or born somewhere else, their nakedness you shall not uncover.
 10 The nakedness of your son's daughter, or of your daughter's daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover, for theirs is your own nakedness.
 11 The nakedness of your father's wife's daughter, begotten by your father, she is your sister, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
 12 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister, she is your father's near kinswoman.
 13 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, for she is your mother's near kinswoman.
 14 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother, you shall not approach to his wife, she is your aunt.
 15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter in law, she is your son's wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
 16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife, it is your brother's nakedness.
 17 You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, nor shall you take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness, for they are her near kinswomen, it is wickedness.
 18 Nor shall you take a wife that is your wife's sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her lifetime.
 19 Also you shall not approach to a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
 20 Also you shall not lie carnally with your neighbor's wife, to defile yourself with her.
 21 And you shall not let any of your children pass through the fire to Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God, I am the Lord.
 22 Men shall not lie with men like with women, it is abomination.
 23 Nor shall you lie with any beast to defile yourself with them, nor shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down before it, it is confusion.
 24 Don't defile yourselves in any of these things, for in all these the nations have been defiled that I threw out before you,
 25 And the land is defiled, so I visit its sin on it, and the land itself vomits out its inhabitants.
 26 You shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations, nor any of your own nation, nor any stranger that visits among you,
 27 (For all these abominations the men of the land have done, that were before you, and the land is defiled,)
 28 So that the land doesn't vomit you out also, when you defile it, like it vomited  out the nations that were before you.
 29 For whoever shall commit any of these abominations, the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
 30 Therefore you shall keep my ordinances, so that you don't commit any of these abominable customs, that were committed before you, and so that you don't defile yourselves in them, I am the Lord your God."

 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them, you shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy.

 4 Don't turn to idols, nor make for yourselves gods shaped from melted metal, I am the Lord your God.
 5 And if you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, you shall offer it at your own will.
 6 It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day, and if any of it remains until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.
 7 And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is dirty, it shall not be accepted.
 8 Therefore everyone that eats it shall bear his sin, because he has profaned a holy thing of the Lord, and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
 9 And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not completely reap the corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
 10 And you shall not glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather every grape of your vineyard, you shall leave them for the poor and stranger, I am the Lord your God.
 11 You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to each other.

 13 You shalt not cheat your neighbor, nor rob him, the wages of him that is hired shall not remain with you all night until the morning.
 14 You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind, but shall fear your God, I am the Lord.
 15 You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, you shall not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty, but in righteousness you shall judge your neighbor.

 17 You shall not hate your brother in your heart, you shall in any wise rebuke your neighbor, and not allow sin on him.

 20 And whoever lies carnally with a woman that is a bondmaid, engaged to a man, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her, she shall be scourged, they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
 21 And he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, a ram for a trespass offering.
 22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the Lord for his sin that he has, and he shall be forgiven for the sin that he has done.
 23 And when you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall see the fruit of it as uncircumcised, three years it shall be as uncircumcised to you, it shall not be eaten.
 24 But in the fourth year all the fruit of it shall be holy to praise the Lord with.
 25 And in the fifth year you shall eat of the fruit of it, so that it will yield to you the increase of it, I am the Lord your God.
 26 You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor shall you use enchantment, nor observe times.

 34 But the stranger that lives with you shall be to you like someone born among you, and you shall love him like yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt, I am the Lord your God.
 35 You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in weight, or in measuring.
 36 You shall have honest balances, honest weights, an honest ephah, and an honest hin, I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
 37 Therefore you shall observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them, I am the Lord."

___Leviticus chapter 20
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Again, you shall say to the children of Israel, Whoever he is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that visit in Israel, that gives any of his children to Molech, he shall surely be put to death, the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
 3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his children to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
 4 And if the people of the land in any way hide their eyes from the man, when he gives of his children to Molech, and don't kill him,
 5 Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
 6 And the soul that turns after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go whoring after them, I will set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
 7 Make yourselves holy therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.
 8 And you shall keep my statutes, and do them, I am the Lord who makes you holy.
 9 For everyone that curses his father or his mother shall be surely put to death, he has cursed his father or his mother, his blood shall be on himself.
 10 And the man that commits adultery with another man's wife, with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
 11 And the man that lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness, both of them shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be on themselves.
 12 And if a man lies with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death, they have made confusion, their blood shall be on themselves.
 13 If a man also lies with mankind, like they lie with a woman, both of them have committed a filthy act, they shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be on them.
 14 And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness, they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they, so that there is no wickedness among you.
 15 And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death, and you shall kill the beast.
 16 And if a woman approaches to any beast, and lies down at it, you shall kill the woman, and the beast, they shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be on themselves.
 17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness, it is a wicked thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people, he has uncovered his sister's nakedness, he shall carry his sin.
 18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness, he has discovered her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood, and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
 19 And you shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, nor of your father's sister, for he uncovers his near kin, they shall bear their sin.
 20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness, they shall bear their sin, they shall die childless.
 21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing, he has uncovered his brother's nakedness, they shall be childless.
 22 You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them, so that the land, where I bring you to live there, doesn't vomit you out.
 23 And you shall not walk in the ways of the nations that I threw out before you, for they committed all these things, and therefore I hated them.
 24 But I have said to you, you shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land that flows with milk and honey, I am the Lord your God, who has separated you from other people.
 25 You shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean birds and clean, and you shall not make your souls dirty by beast, or by bird, or by any kind of living thing that creeps on the ground, that I have separated from you as unclean.
 26 And you shall be holy to me, for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from other people, so that you would be mine.
 27 A man also or woman that has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death, they shall stone them with stones, their blood shall be on themselves."

___Leviticus chapter 21
 1 And the Lord said to Moses, "Speak to the priests the sons of Aaron, and say to them, No one shall be defiled for the dead among his people,
 2 But for his kin, that is near to him, that is, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
 3 And for his sister a virgin, that is close to him, who has had no husband, for her may he be defiled.
 4 But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
 5 They shall not make baldness on their head, nor shall shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
 6 They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God, for the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and the bread of their God, they offer, therefore they shall be holy.
 7 They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane, nor shall they take a woman put away from her husband, for he is holy to his God.
 8 You shall sanctify him therefore, for he offers the bread of your God, he shall be holy to you, for I the Lord who sanctifies you am holy.
 9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by playing the whore, she profanes her father, she shall be burnt with fire.
 10 And he that is the high priest among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor tear his clothes,
 11 Nor shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother,
 12 Nor shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God, for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is on him, I am the Lord.
 13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
 14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or a prostitute, these shall he not take, but he shall take a virgin of his own people as wife.
 15 Nor shall he profane his children among his people, for I the Lord sanctify him."
 16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 17 "Speak to Aaron, saying, Whoever he is of your seed in their generations that has any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
 18 For whatever man he is that has a blemish, he shall not approach, a blind man, or a lame, or he that has a flat nose, or anything extra,
 19 Or a man that is broken footed, or broken handed,
 20 Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that has a blemish in his eye, or is scurvy, or scabbed, or has his stones broken,
 21 No man that has a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come near to offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire, he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
 22 He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
 23 Only he shall not go in to the vail, nor come near the altar, because he has a blemish, so that he doesn't profane my sanctuaries, for I the Lord sanctify them."
 24 And Moses told it to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel.

___Leviticus chapter 22
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they don't profane my holy name in the things that they make holy to me, I am the Lord.
 3 Say to them, Whoever he is of all your seed among your generations, that goes to the holy things, that the children of Israel hallow to the Lord, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence, I am the Lord.
 4 Whatever man of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or has a fluid going from him, he shall not eat of the holy things, until he's clean.  And whoever touches anything that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed of copulation goes from him,
 5 Or whoever touches any creeping thing, by which he becomes unclean, or a man from whom he can catch uncleanness, whatever uncleanness he has,
 6 The soul that has touched any such shall be unclean until evening, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he washes his flesh with water.
 7 And when the sun is down, he shall be clean, and shall afterward eat of the holy things, because it is his food.
 8 That which dies of itself, or is torn by animals, he shall not eat to defile himself with it, I am the Lord.
 9 They shall therefore keep my ordinance, so they don't carry sin for it, and die therefore, if they profane it, I the Lord sanctify them.
 10 There shall no stranger eat of the holy thing, a visitor of the priest, or a hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.
 11 But if the priest buys any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house, they shall eat of his food.
 12 If the priest's daughter also is married to a stranger, she may not eat of an offering of the holy things.
 13 But if the priest's daughter is a widow, or divorced, and has no child, and has returned to her father's house, like in her youth, she shall eat of her father's food, but no stranger shall eat of it.
 14 And if a man eats of a holy thing unknowingly, then he shall add twenty percent to it, and shall give it to the priest with the holy thing.
 15 And they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel that they offer to the Lord,
 16 Or allow them to carry the sin of trespass, when they eat their holy things, for I the Lord make them holy."
 17 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 18 "Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, Whoever he is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his sacrifice for all his vows, and for all his free will offerings, that they will offer to the Lord for a burnt offering,
 19 You shall offer of your own free will, a male without blemish, of the beef, of the sheep, or of the goats.
 20 But whatever has a blemish, you shall not offer, since it won't be acceptable for you.
 21 And whoever offers a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord to fulfill his vow, or a free will offering in beef or sheep, it shall be perfect to be accepted, there shall be no blemish in it.
 22 Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, you shall not offer these to the Lord, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to the Lord.
 23 Either a bullock or a lamb that has any extra parts or any missing parts, you can offer it for a freewill offering, but for a vow it won't be accepted.
 24 You shall not offer to the Lord that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut, nor shall you make any offering of it in your land.
 25 Nor from a stranger's hand shall you offer the bread of your God from any of these, because their corruption is in them, and blemishes are in them, they shall not be accepted for you."
 26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 27 "When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is born, then it shall be seven days under its mother, and from the eighth day and from then on, it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire to the Lord.
 28 And whether it is a cow or female sheep, you shall not kill it and its young both on the same day.
 29 And when you want to offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Lord, offer it at your own will.
 30 On the same day it shall be eaten up, you shall leave none of it until the next day, I am the Lord.
 31 Therefore you shall keep my commandments, and do them, I am the Lord.
 32 Nor shall you profane my holy name, but I will be holy among the children of Israel, I am the Lord who makes you holy,
 33 Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God, I am the Lord."

___Leviticus chapter 23
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, Concerning the feasts of the Lord, that you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are my feasts.
 3 Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, a holy convocation, you shall do no work in it, it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.
 4 These are the feasts of the Lord, even holy convocations, that you shall proclaim in their seasons.
 5 On the fourteenth day of the first month at evening is the Lord's passover.
 6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to the Lord, seven days you must eat unleavened bread.
 7 In the first day you shall have a holy convocation, you shall do no servile work in it.
 8 But you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord seven days, in the seventh day is a holy convocation, you shall do no servile work in it."
 9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 10 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you've come into the land that I give to you, and shall reap the harvest of it, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest,
 11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you, on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
 12 And you shall offer that day when you wave the sheaf, a he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering to the Lord.
 13 And the meat offering of it shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to the Lord for a sweet odor, and the drink offering of it shall be of wine, one fourth of a hin.
 14 And you shall eat no bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the same day that you have brought an offering to your God, it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
 15 And you shall count for yourselves from the next day after the sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, seven sabbaths shall be complete,
 16 Until the next day after the seventh sabbath you shall number fifty days, and you shall offer a new meat offering to the Lord.
 17 You shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals, they shall be of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven, they are the first fruits to the Lord.
 18 And you shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of the first year, and one young bullock, and two rams, they shall be for a burnt offering to the Lord, with their meat offering, and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire, of sweet odor to the Lord.
 19 Then you shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of peace offerings.
 20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first fruits for a wave offering before the Lord, with the two lambs, they shall be holy to the Lord for the priest.
 21 And you shall proclaim on the same day, so it will be a holy convocation to you, you shall do no servile work in it, it shall be a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
 22 And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not completely clean the corners of your field when you reap, nor shall you gather any gleaning of your harvest, you shall leave them for the poor, and for the stranger, I am the Lord your God."
 23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 24 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
 25 You shall do no servile work in it, but you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord."
 26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 27 "Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement, it shall be a holy convocation to you, and you shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire to the Lord.
 28 And you shall do no work on that day, for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the Lord your God.
 29 For whatever soul it is that shall not be afflicted on that day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
 30 And whatever soul it is that does any work on that day, the same soul I will destroy from among his people.
 31 You shall do no kind of work, it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
 32 It shall be to you a sabbath of rest, and you shall afflict your souls, on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening until evening, you shall celebrate your sabbath."
 33 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 34 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days to the Lord.
 35 On the first day shall be a holy convocation, you shall do no servile work in it.
 36 Seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation to you, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, it is a solemn assembly, and you shall do no servile work in it.
 37 These are the feasts of the Lord, that you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, everything on its day,
 38 Beside the sabbaths of the Lord, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, that you give to the Lord.
 39 Also on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a feast to the Lord seven days, on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.
 40 And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the boughs of good trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days.
 41 And you shall keep it a feast to the Lord seven days in the year.  It shall be a statute forever in your generations, you shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
 42 You shall live in booths seven days, all that are Israelites born shall live in booths,
 43 So that your generations will know that I made the children of Israel to live in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, I am the Lord your God."
 44 And Moses declared to the children of Israel the feasts of the Lord.

___Leviticus chapter 24
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Command the children of Israel, to bring to you pure beaten olive oil for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.
 3 Outside the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, Aaron shall order it from the evening to the morning before the Lord continually, it shall be a statute forever in your generations.
 4 He shall order the lamps on the pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
 5 And you shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it, two tenth deals shall be in one cake.
 6 And you shall set them in two rows, six in a row, on the pure table before the Lord.
 7 And you shall put pure frankincense on each row, so it will be on the bread for a memorial, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
 8 He shall set it in order every sabbath before the Lord continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
 9 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons', and they shall eat it in the holy place, for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the Lord made by fire by a perpetual statute."
 10 And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel, and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel fought together in the camp,
 11 And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the Lord, and cursed.  And they brought him to Moses, (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan,)
 12 And they put him in ward, so the mind of the Lord would be shown to them.
 13 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 14 "Bring out him that has cursed outside the camp, and let all that heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
 15 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
 16 And he that blasphemes the name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him, as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemes the name of the Lord, shall be put to death.
 17 And he that kills any man shall surely be put to death.
 18 And he that kills a beast shall make it good, beast for beast.
 19 And if a man causes a blemish in his neighbor, as he has done, so shall it be done to him,
 20 Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, as he has caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done back to him.
 21 And he that kills a beast, he shall restore it, and he that kills a man, he shall be put to death.
 22 You shall have one kind of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country, for I am the Lord your God."
 23 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should bring him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones.  And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.

___Leviticus chapter 25
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in Mount Sinai, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land that I give you, then the land shall keep a sabbath to the Lord.
 3 Six years you shall plant your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard, and gather in the fruit of it,
 4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest to the land, a sabbath for the Lord, you shall neither plant your field, nor prune your vineyard.
 5 That which grows of its own accord of your harvest you shall not reap, nor gather the grapes of your vine undressed, for it is a year of rest to the land.
 6 And the sabbath of the land shall be food for you, for you, and for your servant, and for your maid, and for your hired servant, and for your stranger that is visiting with you,
 7 And for your cattle, and for the animals that are in your land, shall all the increase of it be food.
 8 And you shall number seven sabbaths of years to you, seven times seven years, and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty nine years.
 9 Then you shall cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement you shall make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
 10 And you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all the inhabitants of it, it shall be a jubilee to you, and you shall return every man to his possession, and you shall return every man to his family.
 11 That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you, you shall not plant, nor reap that which grows of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of your vine undressed.
 12 For it is the jubilee, it shall be holy to you, you shall eat the increase of it out of the field.
 13 In the year of this jubilee you shall return every man to his possession.
 14 And if you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy anything from your neighbor's hand, you shall not oppress each other,
 15 According to the number of years after the jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor, and according to the number of years of the fruits he shall sell to you,
 16 According to the multitude of years you shalt increase the price of it, and according to the fewness of years you shall diminish the price of it, for according to the number of the years of the fruits does he sell to you.
 17 You shall not therefore oppress each other, but you shall fear your God, for I am the Lord your God.
 18 So you shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them, and you shall live in the land in safety.
 19 And the land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and live in it in safety.
 20 And if you shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year?  See, we shall not plant, nor gather in our increase,
 21 Then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.
 22 And you shall plant the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the ninth year, until its fruits come in you shall eat of the old store.
 23 The land shall not be sold forever, for the land is mine, for you are strangers and visitors with me.
 24 And in all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.
 25 If your brother has grown poor, and has sold away some of his possession, and if any of his relatives come to redeem it, then he shall redeem what his brother sold.
 26 And if the man has no one to redeem it, and he himself is able to redeem it,
 27 Then let him count the years of the sale of it, and restore the excess to the man to whom he sold it, so he can return to his possession.
 28 But if he is not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that has bought it until the year of jubilee, and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return to his possession.
 29 And if a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then he can redeem it within a whole year after it is sold, within a full year he can redeem it.
 30 And if it isn't redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established forever to him that bought it throughout his generations, it shall not go out in the jubilee.
 31 But the houses of the villages that have no wall around them shall be counted as the fields of the country, they can be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
 32 But, the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, the Levites can redeem at any time.
 33 And if a man buys from the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
 34 But the field of the suburbs of their cities can't be sold, for it is their perpetual possession.
 35 And if your brother has grown poor, and fallen in decay with you, then you shall relieve him, yes, though he is a stranger, or a visitor, so that he can live with you.
 36 Don't take interest from him, or increase, but fear your God, so that your brother can live with you.
 37 You shall not give him your money at interest, nor lend him your food for increase.
 38 I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
 39 And if your brother that lives by you has grown poor, and has been sold to you, you shall not compel him to serve like a bond servant,
 40 But like a hired servant, and as a visitor, he shall be with you, and shall serve you until the year of jubile,
 41 And then he shall depart from you, both he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers he shall return.
 42 For they are my servants, that I brought out of the land of Egypt, they shall not be sold as bondmen.
 43 You shall not rule over him with rigor, but shall fear your God.
 44 Both your bondmen, and your bondmaids, that you shall have, shall be of the heathen that are around you, you shall buy bondmen and bondmaids from them.
 45 Also of the children of the strangers that are visitors among you, from them you shall buy, and from their families that are with you, that they fathered in your land, and they shall be your possession.
 46 And you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession, they shall be your bondmen forever, but over your brothers, the children of Israel, you shall not rule over each other with rigor.
 47 And if a visitor or stranger grows rich by you, and your brother that dwells by him grows poor, and sells himself to the stranger or visitor by you, or to the stock of the stranger's family,
 48 After he has been sold he can be redeemed again, one of his brothers can redeem him,
 49 Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is near of kin to him of his family can redeem him, or if he is able, he can redeem himself.
 50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him to the year of jubilee, and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of years, according to the time of a hired servant shall it be with him.
 51 If there are yet many years behind, according to them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
 52 And if few years remain until the year of jubilee, then he shall count with him, and according to his years shall he give him back the price of his redemption.
 53 And as a yearly hired servant he shall be with him, and the other shall not rule with rigor over him in your sight.
 54 And if he has not been redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, both he, and his children with him.
 55 For to me the children of Israel are servants, they are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt, I am the Lord your God."

___Leviticus chapter 26
 1 "You shall make for yourselves no idols nor graven image, nor rear up a standing image, nor shall you set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down to it, for I am the Lord your God.
 2 You shall keep my sabbaths, and show reverence to my sanctuary, I am the Lord.
 3 If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them,
 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
 5 And your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the planting time, and you shall eat your bread to the full, and live in your land safely.
 6 And I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one shall make you afraid, and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, nor shall the sword go through your land.
 7 And you shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
 8 And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight, and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
 9 For I will have respect to you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
 10 And you shall eat old store, and bring out the old because of the new.
 11 And I will set my tabernacle among you, and my soul shall not hate you.
 12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people.
 13 I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you wouldn't be their bondmen, and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
 14 But if you won't listen to me, and won't do all these commandments,
 15 And if you shall despise my statutes, or if your soul hates my judgments, so that you won't do all my commandments, but that you break my covenant,
 16 I also will do this to you, I will appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart, and you shall plant your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
 17 And I will set my face against you, and you shall be killed before your enemies, those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you.
 18 And if, for all of this, you still won't listen to me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
 19 And I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your heaven like iron, and your earth like brass,
 20 And your strength shall be spent in vain, for your land shall not yield its increase, nor shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
 21 And if you walk contrary to me, and won't listen to me, I will bring seven times more plagues on you according to your sins.
 22 I will also send wild beasts among you, that shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number, and your highways shall be desolate.
 23 And if you will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary to me,
 24 Then I will also walk contrary to you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
 25 And I will bring a sword on you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant, and when you are gathered together in your cities, I will send the pestilence among you, and you shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
 26 And when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver your bread back to you by weight, and you shall eat, and not be satisfied.
 27 And if for all this you still won't listen to me, but walk contrary to me,
 28 Then I will also walk contrary to you in fury, and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
 29 And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and you shall eat the flesh of your daughters.
 30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and throw your dead bodies on the dead bodies of your idols, and my soul shall hate you.
 31 And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not smell your sweet odors.
 32 And I will bring the land into desolation, and your enemies that live in it shall be astonished at it.
 33 And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you, and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.
 34 Then the land shall enjoy its sabbaths, as long as it lies desolate, and you are in your enemies' land, then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.
 35 As long as it lies desolate it shall rest, because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when you lived on it.
 36 And on those who are left alive of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee, like fleeing from a sword, and they shall fall when no one pursues.
 37 And they shall fall on each other, as it were before a sword, when no one pursues, and you shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
 38 And you shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
 39 And those who are left of you shall pine away in their sin in your enemies' lands, and also in the sins of their fathers they shall pine away with them.
 40 If they shall confess their sin, and the sin of their fathers, with their trespass that they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary to me,
 41 And that I also have walked contrary to them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies, if then their uncircumcised hearts are humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their sin,
 42 Then I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and I will also remember my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.
 43 The land also shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its sabbaths, while it lies desolate without them, and they shall accept of the punishment of their sin, because they despised my judgments, and because their soul hated my statutes.
 44 And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not throw them away, nor will I hate them, to destroy them completely, and to break my covenant with them, for I am the Lord their God.
 45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, so that I would be their God, I am the Lord."
 46 These are the statutes and judgments and laws, that the Lord made between him and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

___Leviticus chapter 27
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons shall be for the Lord by your estimation.
 3 And your estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old up to sixty years old, even your estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
 4 And if it is a female, then your estimation shall be thirty shekels.
 5 And if it is from five years old even to twenty years old, then your estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
 6 And if it is from a month old even to five years old, then your estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female your estimation shall be three shekels of silver.
 7 And if it is from sixty years old and above, if it is a male, then your estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
 8 But if he is poorer than your estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him, according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
 9 And if it is a beast, of which men bring an offering to the Lord, all that any man gives of such to the Lord shall be holy.
 10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good, and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange of it shall be holy.
 11 And if it is any unclean beast, from which they don't offer a sacrifice to the Lord, then he shall present the beast before the priest,
 12 And the priest shall value it, whether it is good or bad, as you value it, who is the priest, so shall it be.
 13 But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add twenty percent of it to your estimation.
 14 And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy to the Lord, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it is good or bad, as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
 15 And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add twenty percent of the money of your estimation to it, and it shall be his.
 16 And if a man shall sanctify to the Lord some part of a field of his possession, then your estimation shall be according to the seed of it, a homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
 17 If he sanctifies his field from the year of jubilee, according to your estimation it shall stand.
 18 But if he sanctifies his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain, to the year of the jubilee, and it shall be abated from your estimation.
 19 And if he that sanctified the field will in any way redeem it, then he shall add twenty percent of the money of your estimation to it, and it shall be assured to him.
 20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore.
 21 But the field, when it goes out in the jubilee, shall be holy to the Lord, like a field devoted, the possession of it shall be the priest's.
 22 And if a man sanctifies to the Lord a field that he has bought, that is not of the fields of his possession,
 23 Then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your estimation, to the year of the jubilee, and he shall give your estimation in that day, like a holy thing to the Lord.
 24 In the year of the jubilee, the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land used to belong.
 25 And all your estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary, twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
 26 Only the firstling of the beasts, that should be the Lord's firstling, no man shall sanctify it, whether it is ox, or sheep, it is the Lord's.
 27 And if it is of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to your estimation, and shall add twenty percent to it, or if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your estimation.
 28 But no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to the Lord of all that he has, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed, every devoted thing is most holy to the Lord.
 29 No one devoted, that shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed, but shall surely be put to death.
 30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's, it is holy to the Lord.
 31 And if a man will at all redeem any of his tithes, he shall add to it twenty percent of it.
 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the Lord.
 33 He shall not search whether it is good or bad, nor shall he change it, and if he changes it at all, then both it and the change of it shall be holy, it shall not be redeemed."
 34 These are the commandments, that the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in Mount Sinai.

 50 But thou shall appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the containers of it, and over all things that belong to it, they shall carry the tabernacle, and all the containers of it, and they shall minister to it, and shall encamp around the tabernacle.
 51 And when the tabernacle sets forward, the Levites shall take it down, and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up, and the stranger that comes near shall be put to death.

 40 And the Lord said to Moses, "Number all the firstborn of the males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
 41 And you shall take the Levites for me (I am the Lord) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel."
 42 And Moses numbered, as the Lord commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
 43 And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty two thousand two hundred seventy three.
 44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 45 "Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle, and the Levites shall be mine, I am the Lord.
 46 And for those that are to be redeemed of the two hundred seventy three of the firstborn of the children of Israel, which are more than the Levites,
 47 You shall take five shekels each by the poll, after the shekel of the sanctuary shall you take them, (the shekel is twenty gerahs,)
 48 And you shall give the money, with which the odd number of them is to be redeemed, to Aaron and to his sons."
 49 And Moses took the redemption money of those who were over and above those who were redeemed by the Levites,
 50 Of the firstborn of the children of Israel he took the money, a thousand three hundred sixty five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary,
 51 And Moses gave the money of those who were redeemed to Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.

 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 2 "Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, after their families, by the house of their fathers,
 3 From thirty years old and older until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
 4 This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy things,
 5 And when the camp sets forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering veil, and cover the ark of testimony with it,
 6 And shall put on it the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread over it a cloth completely of blue, and shall put in the staves of it.
 7 And on the table of showbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put on it the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover with, and the continual bread shall be on it,
 8 And they shall spread on them a red cloth, and cover the same with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put in the staves of it.
 9 And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the light, and its lamps, and its tongs, and its snuff dishes, and all the oil containers of it, with which they minister to it,
 10 And they shall put it and all the containers of it inside a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put it on a bar.
 11 And on the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the staves of it,
 12 And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, with which they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put them on a bar,

 14 And they shall put on it all the containers of it, with which they minister about it, the censers, the flesh hooks, and the shovels, and the basins, all the containers of the altar, and they shall spread on it a covering of badgers' skins, and put in the staves of it.
 15 And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the containers of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward, after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to carry it, but they shall not touch any holy thing, so that they don't die.  These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
 16 And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertains the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that is in it, in the sanctuary, and in the containers of it.
 17 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 18 "Don't cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites,
 19 But do this with them, so that they can live, and not die, when they approach the most holy things, Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them each one to his service and to his burden,
 20 But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, so they don't die."
 21 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 22 "Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout the houses of their fathers, by their families,
 23 From thirty years old and older up to fifty years old you shall number them, all that enter in to perform the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.

 25 And they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of the congregation, its covering, and the covering of the badgers' skins that is on top of it, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
 26 And the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar and around it, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and all that is made for them, that's how they'll serve.
 27 At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all their service, and you shall appoint to them in charge all their burdens.
 28 This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation, and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
 29 As for the sons of Merari, you shall number them after their families, by the house of their fathers,
 30 From thirty years old and older up to fifty years old you shall number them, everyone that enters into the service, to do the work of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 31 And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tabernacle of the congregation, the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars of it, and the pillars of it, and sockets of it,
 32 And the pillars of the court and around it, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service, and by name you shall reckon the instruments of the charge of their burden.
 33 This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest."

___Numbers chapter 5
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and everyone that has something flowing out, and whoever is defiled by the dead,
 3 Both male and female you shall put out, you shall put them outside the camp, so that they don't defile their camps, among which I live."
 4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out outside the camp, as the Lord spoke to Moses, the children of Israel did so.
 5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 6 "Speak to the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the Lord, and that person is guilty,
 7 Then they shall confess their sin that they have done, and he shall repay his trespass with the principal of it, and add to it twenty percent of it, and give it to him against whom he has trespassed.
 8 But if the man has no kinsman to repay the trespass to, let the trespass be repaid to the Lord, to the priest, beside the ram of the atonement, by which an atonement shall be made for him.
 9 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his.
 10 And every man's hallowed things shall be his, whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his."
 11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 12 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, If any man's wife goes aside, and commits a trespass against him,
 13 And a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and is kept close, and she is defiled, and there is no witness against her, nor does she get pregnant,
 14 And the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is defiled, or if the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is not defiled,
 15 Then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal, he shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing sin to remembrance.
 16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the Lord,
 17 And the priest shall take holy water in a clay pot, and the priest shall take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle, and put it into the water,
 18 And the priest shall set the woman before the Lord, and uncover the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering, and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causes the curse,
 19 And the priest shall charge her with an oath, and say to the woman, If no man has lain with you, and if you haven't gone aside to uncleanness with someone else instead of your husband, be free from this bitter water that causes the curse,
 20 But if you've gone aside to another instead of your husband, and if you're defiled, and some man has lain with you beside your husband,
 21 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say to the woman, The Lord make you a curse and an oath among your people, when the Lord makes your thigh to rot, and your belly to swell,
 22 And this water that causes the curse shall go into your bowels, to make your belly swell, and your thigh to rot, and the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
 23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water,
 24 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causes the curse, and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter.
 25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the offering before the Lord, and offer it on the altar,
 26 And the priest shall take a handful of the offering, the memorial of it, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water.
 27 And when he has made her drink the water, then it shall occur that, if she is defiled, and has done trespass against her husband, that the water that causes the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot, and the woman shall be a curse among her people.
 28 And if the woman isn't defiled, but is clean, then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
 29 This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goes aside to another instead of her husband, and is defiled,
 30 Or when the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the Lord, and the priest shall execute on her all this law.
 31 Then the man shall be guiltless from sin, and this woman shall bear her sin.

___Numbers chapter 6
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves to the Lord,
 3 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, nor shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried.
 4 All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk.
 5 All the days of the vow of his separation no razor shall come on his head, until the days are fulfilled, in which he separates himself to the Lord, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.
 6 All the days that he separates himself to the Lord, he shall not come near a dead body.
 7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die, because the consecration of his God is on his head.
 8 All the days of his separation, he is holy to the Lord.
 9 And if any man dies very suddenly by him, and he has defiled the head of his consecration, then he shall shave his head on the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day he shall shave it.
 10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
 11 And the priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement for him, because he sinned by the dead, and shall hallow his head that same day.
 12 And he shall consecrate to the Lord the days of his separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a trespass offering, but the days that were before shall be lost, because his separation was defiled.
 13 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
 14 And he shall offer his offering to the Lord, one he lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one female lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, and one male sheep without blemish for peace offerings,
 15 And a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings.
 16 And the priest shall bring them before the Lord, and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering,
 17 And he shall offer the male sheep for a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, with the basket of unleavened bread, the priest shall offer also his meat offering, and his drink offering.
 18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire that is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
 19 And the priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the hands of the Nazarite, after the hair of his separation has been shaved,
 20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the Lord, this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoulder, and after that the Nazarite can drink wine.
 21 This is the law of the Nazarite who has vowed, and of his offering to the Lord for his separation, beside that which his hand shall get, according to the vow that he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation."
 22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 23 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, In this way you shall bless the children of Israel, saying to them,
 24 The Lord bless you, and keep you,
 25 The Lord make his face shine on you, and be gracious to you,
 26 The Lord lift up his countenance on you, and give you peace.
 27 And they shall put my name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them."

 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to Aaron, and say to him, When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light opposite the candlestick."
 3 And Aaron did so, he lighted the lamps of it opposite the candlestick, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 4 And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, to the shaft of it, to the flowers of it, was beaten work, according to the pattern that the Lord had shown Moses, so he made the candlestick.
 5 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 6 "Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
 7 And thus shall you do to them, to cleanse them, sprinkle water of purifying on them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean.
 8 Then let them take a young bullock with its meat offering, fine flour mixed with oil, and you shall take another young bullock for a sin offering.
 9 And you shall bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation, and you shall gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel together,
 10 And you shall bring the Levites before the Lord, and the children of Israel shall put their hands on the Levites,
 11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the Lord for an offering of the children of Israel, so they can execute the service of the Lord.
 12 And the Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bullocks, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, to the Lord, to make an atonement for the Levites.
 13 And you shall set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering to the Lord.
 14 Thus shall you separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
 15 And after that the Levites shall go in to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and you shall cleanse them, and offer them for an offering.
 16 For they are completely given to me from among the children of Israel, instead of such as open every womb, instead of the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I've taken them to me.
 17 For all the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine, both man and beast, on the day that I struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt I sanctified them for myself.
 18 And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel.
 19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make an atonement for the children of Israel, so that there is no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary."
 20 And Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, did to the Levites according to all that the Lord commanded Moses concerning the Levites, the children of Israel did so to them.
 21 And the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as an offering before the Lord, and Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them.
 22 And after that the Levites went in to do their service in the tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his sons, as the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, they did so to them.
 23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 24 "This is what pertains to the Levites, from twenty five years old and older they shall go in to wait on the service of the tabernacle of the congregation,
 25 And from the age of fifty years they shall stop waiting on the service of it, and shall serve no more,
 26 But shall minister with their brothers in the tabernacle of the congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service.  Thus shall you do to the Levites concerning their charge."

___Numbers chapter 9
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
 2 "Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at its appointed season.
 3 In the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, you shall keep it in its appointed season, according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies of it, you shall keep it."
 4 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
 5 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at evening in the wilderness of Sinai, according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
 6 And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, so that they couldn't keep the passover on that day, and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day,
 7 And those men said to him, "We are defiled by the dead body of a man, why are we kept back, so that we can't offer an offering of the Lord in its appointed season among the children of Israel?"
 8 And Moses said to them, "Stand still, and I will hear what the Lord will command concerning you."
 9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 10 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or is in a journey far off, yet he shall keep the passover to the Lord.
 11 The fourteenth day of the second month at evening they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
 12 They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break any bone of it, according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
 13 But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and chooses not to keep the passover, the same soul shall be cut off from among his people, because he didn't bring the offering of the Lord in its appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
 14 And if a stranger shall visit among you, and will keep the passover to the Lord, according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner of it, so shall he do, you shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land."
 15 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony, and at evening there was on the tabernacle like the appearance of fire, until the morning.
 16 So it was always, the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
 17 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed, and in the place where the cloud was, the children of Israel pitched their tents there.
 18 At the commandment of the Lord the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the Lord they pitched, as long as the cloud stayed on the tabernacle they rested in their tents.
 19 And when the cloud stayed on the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the Lord, and didn't journey.
 20 And so it was, when the cloud was a few days on the tabernacle, according to the commandment of the Lord they stayed in their tents, and according to the commandment of the Lord they journeyed.
 21 And so it was, when the cloud stayed from evening 'til the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed, whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
 22 Or whether it was two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud stayed on the tabernacle, remaining on it, the children of Israel stayed in their tents, and didn't journey, but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
 23 At the commandment of the Lord they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of the Lord they journeyed, they kept the charge of the Lord, at the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

___Numbers chapter 10
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Make for yourselves two trumpets of silver, of a whole piece you shall make them, so that you can use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
 3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to you at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 4 And if they blow with only one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
 5 When you blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
 6 When you blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey, they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
 7 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
 8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets, and they shall be to you for an ordinance forever throughout your generations.
 9 And if you go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresses you, then you shall blow an alarm with the trumpets, and you shall be remembered before the Lord your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies.
 10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings, so that they will be to you for a memorial before your God, I am the Lord your God."
 11 On the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle of the testimony.
 12 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai, and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.
 13 And they first took their journey according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
 14 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the children of Judah according to their armies, and over his host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
 15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar.
 16 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
 17 And the tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward, carrying the tabernacle.
 18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies, and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
 19 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
 20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
 21 And the Kohathites set forward, carrying the sanctuary, and the others set up the tabernacle for when they came.
 22 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to their armies, and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud.
 23 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
 24 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
 25 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which was the rearmost of all the camps throughout their hosts, and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
 26 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.
 27 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
 28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they set forward.
 29 And Moses said to Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law, "We are journeying to the place of which the Lord said, I will give it to you, come with us, and we will do you good, for the Lord has spoken good concerning Israel."
 30 And he said to him, "I won't go, but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives."
 31 And he said, "Don't leave us, please, since you know how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and you can be eyes for us.
 32 And it shall be, if you go with us, yes, it shall be, that what goodness the Lord shall do to us, we will do the same to you."
 33 And they departed from the mountain of the Lord three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them in the three days' journey, to search out a resting place for them.
 34 And the cloud of the Lord was on them by day, when they went out of the camp.
 35 When the ark set forward, Moses said, "Rise up, Lord, and let your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate you flee before you."
 36 And when it rested, he said, "Return, O Lord, to the many thousands of Israel."

___Numbers chapter 11
 1 And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord, and the Lord heard it, and his anger was kindled, and the fire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed those who were in the outermost parts of the camp.
 2 And the people cried to Moses, and when Moses prayed to the Lord, the fire was quenched.
 3 And he called the name of the place Taberah, because the fire of the Lord burned among them.
 4 And the mixed multitude that was among them started lusting, and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, "Who shall give us flesh to eat?
 5 We remember the fish, that we ate in Egypt freely, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic,
 6 But now our soul has dried away, there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes."
 7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and the color of it like the color of bdellium.
 8 And the people went around, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it, and the taste of it was like the taste of fresh oil.
 9 And when the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna fell on it.
 10 Then Moses heard the people crying throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent, and the anger of the Lord was kindled greatly, also Moses was displeased.
 11 And Moses said to the Lord, "Why have you afflicted your servant?  And why have I not found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
 12 Have I conceived all this people?  Have I begotten them, that you should say to me, Carry them in your bosom, like a nursing father bears the sucking child, to the land that you promised to their fathers?
 13 From where would I have flesh to give to all this people?  For they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, so that we can eat.
 14 I am not able to carry all these people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
 15 And if you deal thus with me, kill me, please, out of hand, if I have found favor in your sight, and let me not see my wretchedness."
 16 And the Lord said to Moses, "Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people, and officers over them, and bring them to the tabernacle of the congregation, so that they can stand there with you.
 17 And I will come down and talk with you there, and I will take some of the spirit that is on you, and will put it on them, and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so that you don't carry it yourself alone.
 18 And say to the people, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat flesh, for you've wept in the ears of the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat?  For it was well with us in Egypt, therefore the Lord will give you flesh, and you shall eat.
 19 You shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days,
 20 But a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you, because you have despised the Lord who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why did we come out of Egypt?"
 21 And Moses said, "The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen, and you have said, I will give them flesh, so they can eat a whole month.
 22 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them?  Or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?"
 23 And the Lord said to Moses, Has the Lord's hand grown short?  You shall see now whether my word shall happen to you or not."
 24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the Lord, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the tabernacle.
 25 And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took some of the spirit that was on him, and gave it to the seventy elders, and it occurred that, when the spirit rested on them, they prophesied, and did not stop.
 26 But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad, and the spirit rested on them, and they were of those who were written, but didn't go out to the tabernacle, and they prophesied in the camp.
 27 And a young man ran, and told Moses, and said, "Eldad and Medad prophesy in the camp."
 28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, said, "My lord Moses, forbid them."
 29 And Moses said to him, "Are you envious for my sake?  Would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit on them!"
 30 And Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
 31 And a wind went out from the Lord, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, like a day's journey on this side, and like a day's journey on the other side, around the camp, and like three feet high on the face of the earth.
 32 And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails, he that gathered least gathered ten homers, and they spread them all around for themselves around the camp.
 33 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, before it was chewed, the wrath of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague.
 34 And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah, because there they buried the people that lusted.
 35 And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah to Hazeroth, and stayed at Hazeroth.

___Numbers chapter 12
 1 And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married, for he had married an Ethiopian woman.
 2 And they said, "Has the Lord indeed spoken only by Moses?  Hasn't he also spoken by us?"  And the Lord heard it.
 3 (Now the man Moses was very meek, more than all the men who were on the face of the earth.)
 4 And the Lord spoke suddenly to Moses, and to Aaron, and to Miriam, "Come out you three to the tabernacle of the congregation."  And the three came out.
 5 And the Lord came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam, and they both stepped forth.
 6 And he said, "Hear now my words, If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known to him in a vision, and will speak to him in a dream.
 7 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all my house.
 8 With him I will speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches, and the similitude of the Lord he shall see, why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?"
 9 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against them, and he departed.
 10 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle, and see, Miriam became leprous, white as snow, and Aaron looked at Miriam, and see, she was leprous.
 11 And Aaron said to Moses, "Alas, my lord, I beg of you, don't lay the sin on us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which we have sinned.
 12 Let her not be like a dead person, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother's womb."
 13 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, "Heal her now, O God, I beg of you."
 14 And the Lord said to Moses, "If her father had only spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days?  Let her be shut out from the camp seven days, and after that let her be received in again."
 15 And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days, and the people didn't journey 'til Miriam was brought in again.
 16 And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.

___Numbers chapter 13
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Send men, so they can search the land of Canaan, that I give to the children of Israel, of every tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a ruler among them."
 3 And Moses by the commandment of the Lord sent them from the wilderness of Paran, all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
 4 And these were their names, of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
 5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
 6 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
 7 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
 8 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun.
 9 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.
 10 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.
 11 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
 12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
 13 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.
 14 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.
 15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
 16 These are the names of the men that Moses sent to spy out the land.  And Moses called Oshea, the son of Nun, Jehoshua.
 17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, Go up this way southward, and go up into the mountain,
 18 And see the land, what it is, and the people that live in it, whether they are strong or weak, few or many,
 19 And what the land is that they live in, whether it is good or bad, and what cities are like that they live in, whether in tents, or in strong holds,
 20 And what the land is, whether it is fat or lean, whether or not there is wood in it.  And be of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land.  Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.
 21 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, as you come to Hamath.
 22 And they ascended by the south, and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were.  (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
 23 And they came to the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they carried it between two of them on a staff, and they brought some of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
 24 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from there.
 25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
 26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh, and brought back word to them, and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.
 27 And they told him, "We came to the land where you sent us, and surely it flows with milk and honey, and this is the fruit of it.
 28 However, the people are strong that live in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great, and also we saw the children of Anak there.
 29 The Amalekites live in the land of the south, and the Hittites, and the Jebusites and the Amorites live in the mountains, and the Canaanites live by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan."
 30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, "Let us go up at once, and possess it, for we are well able to overcome it."
 31 But the men that went up with him said, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are."
 32 And they brought up an evil report about the land that they had searched to the children of Israel, saying, "The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eats up the inhabitants of it, and all the people that we saw in it are big and tall men.
 33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, who come from the giants, and we were in our own sight like grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight."

___Numbers chapter 14
 1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried, and the people cried that night.
 2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, and the whole congregation said to them, "Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt!  Or would God we had died in this wilderness!
 3 And why has the Lord brought us to this land, to fall by the sword, so that our wives and our children will be a prey?  Wouldn't it have been better for us to return into Egypt?"
 4 And they said to each other, "Let's choose a leader, and let's return to Egypt."
 5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
 6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who searched the land, tore their clothes,
 7 And they spoke to all the company of the children of Israel, saying, "The land, that we passed through to search it, is a very good land.
 8 If the Lord delights in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us, a land that flows with milk and honey.
 9 Only don't rebel against the Lord, nor fear the people of the land, for they are bread for us, their defense has departed from them, and the Lord is with us, don't fear them."
 10 But all the congregation said stone them with stones.  And the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.
 11 And the Lord said to Moses, "How long will these people provoke me?  And how long will it be before they believe me, for all the signs that I have shown among them?
 12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of you a greater nation and mightier than they are."
 13 And Moses said to the Lord, "Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for you brought up this people in your might from among them,)
 14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, for they have heard that you Lord are among this people, that you Lord are seen face to face, and that your cloud stands over them, and that you go before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
 15 Now if you shall kill all these people like one man, then the nations that have heard the fame of you will say,
 16 Because the Lord was not able to bring these people into the land that he promised them, therefore he has killed them in the wilderness.
 17 And now, I beg of you, let the power of my Lord be great, according as you have spoken, saying,
 18 The Lord is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving sin and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the sins of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.
 19 Pardon, I beg of you, the sin of these people according to the greatness of your mercy, and as you have forgiven these people, from Egypt even until now."
 20 And the Lord said, "I have pardoned according to your word,
 21 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.
 22 Because all those men who have seen my glory, and my miracles, that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not listened to my voice,
 23 Surely they shall not see the land that I swore to their fathers, nor shall any of them that provoked me see it,
 24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him will I bring into the land into which he went, and his seed shall possess it.
 25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites live in the valley.) Tomorrow, turn and get into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea."
 26 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 27 "How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, who murmur against me?  I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, that they murmur against me.
 28 Say to them, As truly as I live, says the Lord, as you have spoken in my ears, so I will do to you,
 29 Your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness, and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me,
 30 Doubtless you shall not come into the land, concerning which I swore to make you live in it, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
 31 But your little ones, that you said would be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land that you have despised.
 32 But as for you, your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness.
 33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your dead bodies are wasted in the wilderness.
 34 After the number of the days in which you searched the land, forty days, each day for a year, you shall bear your sins, forty years, and you shall know my breach of promise.
 35 I the Lord have said, I will surely do it to all this evil congregation, that have gathered together against me, in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die."
 36 And the men, that Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander on the land,
 37 Those men that brought up the evil report on the land, died by the plague before the Lord.
 38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of the men that went to search the land, continued to live.
 39 And Moses told these sayings to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned greatly.
 40 And they rose up early in the morning, and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, "See, we're here, and will go up to the place that the Lord has promised, for we have sinned."
 41 And Moses said, "Why now do you transgress the commandment of the Lord?  But it won't prosper.
 42 Don't go up, for the Lord is not among you, so that you're not smitten before your enemies.
 43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you'll fall by the sword, because you've turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you."
 44 But they presumed to go up to the hill top, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and Moses, didn't depart out of the camp.
 45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites who lived in that hill, and struck them, and discomfited them, as far as Hormah."

___Numbers chapter 15
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you've come into the land of your habitations, that I give to you,
 3 And will make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet odor to the Lord, of the herd, or of the flock,
 4 Then he that offers his offering to the Lord shall bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mixed with one fourth of a hin of oil.
 5 And the one fourth of a hin of wine for a drink offering shall you prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.
 6 Or for a ram, you shall prepare for a meat offering two tenth deals of flour mixed with one third of a hin of oil.
 7 And for a drink offering you shall offer one third of a hin of wine, for a sweet odor to the Lord.
 8 And when you prepare a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings to the Lord,
 9 Then he shall bring with a bullock, a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour mixed with half a hin of oil.
 10 And you shall bring for a drink offering half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet odor to the Lord.
 11 Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid.
 12 According to the number that you shall prepare, so shall you do to everyone according to their number.
 13 All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet odor to the Lord.
 14 And if a stranger visits with you, or whoever is among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet odor to the Lord, as you do, so he shall do.
 15 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that visits with you, an ordinance forever in your generations, as you are, so shall the stranger be before the Lord.
 16 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that visits with you."
 17 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 18 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land I'm bringing you to,
 19 Then it shall be that, when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall offer up a heave offering to the Lord.
 20 You shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for a heave offering, as you do the heave offering of the threshing floor, so shall you heave it.
 21 Of the first of your dough you shall give to the Lord a heave offering in your generations.
 22 And if you've erred, and not observed all these commandments that the Lord has spoken to Moses,
 23 All that the Lord has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the Lord commanded Moses, and from now on among your generations,
 24 Then it shall be, if anything is committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet odor to the Lord, with its meat offering, and its drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering.
 25 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them, for it is ignorance, and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire to the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord, for their ignorance,
 26 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that visits among them, seeing that all the people were in ignorance.
 27 And if any soul sins through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering.
 28 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sins ignorantly, when he sins by ignorance before the Lord, to make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.
 29 You shall have one law for him that sins through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that visits among them.
 30 But the soul that does anything presumptuously, whether he is born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproaches the Lord, and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
 31 Because he has despised the word of the Lord, and has broken his commandment, that soul shall completely be cut off, his sin shall be on him."
 32 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks on the sabbath day.
 33 And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
 34 And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
 35 And the Lord said to Moses, "The man shall be surely put to death, all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp."
 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 37 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 38 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them to make themselves fringes on the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put on the fringe of the borders a ribbon of blue,
 39 And it shall be to you for a fringe, so that you can look at it, and remember all the commandments of the Lord, and do them, and that you don't seek after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to go a whoring,
 40 So that you will remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.
 41 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God, I am the Lord your God."

___Numbers chapter 16
 1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men,
 2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown,
 3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, "You take too much on you, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the Lord is among them, why then do you lift up yourselves above the congregation of the Lord?"
 4 And when Moses heard it, he fell on his face,
 5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, "Tomorrow the Lord will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him, even him whom he has chosen will he cause to come near to him.
 6 This do, Take censers, Korah, and all his company,
 7 And put fire in them, and put incense in them before the Lord tomorrow, and it shall be that the man whom the Lord chooses, he shall be holy, you take too much on you, you sons of Levi."
 8 And Moses said to Korah, "Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi,
 9 Does it seem but a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?
 10 And he has brought you near to him, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you, and do you seek the priesthood also?
 11 For which cause both you and all your company have gathered together against the Lord, and what is Aaron, that you murmur against him?"
 12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, who said, "We will not come up,
 13 Is it a small thing that you've brought us up out of a land that flows with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, unless you totally make yourself a prince over us?
 14 Also you haven't brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards, do you want to put out the eyes of these men?  We won't come up."
 15 And Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, "Don't respect their offering, I haven't taken one ass from them, nor have I hurt one of them."
 16 And Moses said to Korah, "Be before the Lord, you and all your group, you, and them, and Aaron, tomorrow,
 17 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring before the Lord every man his censer, two hundred fifty censers, you also, and Aaron, each of you his censer."
 18 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense on it, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
 19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.
 20 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 21 "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, so that I can consume them in a moment."
 22 And they fell on their faces, and said, "O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?"
 23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 24 "Speak to the congregation, saying, Get up from around the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram."
 25 And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.
 26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, "Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, so you're not consumed in all their sins."
 27 So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side, and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
 28 And Moses said, "Hereby you'll know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, for I have not done them of my own mind.
 29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, then the Lord has not sent me.
 30 But if the Lord does a new thing, and the earth opens its mouth, and swallows them up, with all that pertains to them, and they go down quickly into the pit, then you shall understand that these men have provoked the Lord."
 31 As he had made an end of speaking all these words, the ground split apart that was under them,
 32 And the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that pertained to Korah, and all their goods.
 33 They, and all that pertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed on them, and they perished from among the congregation.
 34 And all Israel that were around them fled at the cry of them, for they said, "So the earth doesn't swallow us up also."
 35 And a fire came out from the Lord, and consumed the two hundred fifty men that offered incense.
 36 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 37 "Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, to take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire yonder, for they are hallowed.
 38 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the Lord, therefore they are hallowed, and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel."
 39 And Eleazar the priest took the brass censers, with which those who were burnt had offered, and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar,
 40 To be a memorial to the children of Israel, so that no stranger, that is not of the seed of Aaron, comes near to offer incense before the Lord, so that he is not like Korah, and like his company, as the Lord said to him by the hand of Moses.
 41 But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, "You've killed the people of the Lord."
 42 When the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation, and see, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
 43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
 44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 45 "Get you up from among this congregation, so that I can consume them as in a moment."  And they fell on their faces.
 46 And Moses said to Aaron, "Take a censer, and put fire in it from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly to the congregation, and make an atonement for them, for anger has gone out from the Lord, the plague has begun."
 47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the middle of the congregation, and, see, the plague had begun among the people, and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
 48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague stopped.
 49 Now those who died in the plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, beside those who died in connection with the matter of Korah.
 50 And Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the plague had stopped.

___Numbers chapter 17
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and take from everyone of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods, and write every man's name on his rod.
 3 And you shall write Aaron's name on the rod of Levi, for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.
 4 And you shall lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.
 5 And the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom, and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, by which they murmur against you."
 6 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and everyone of their princes each gave him a rod, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, twelve rods, and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.
 7 And Moses laid up the rods before the Lord in the tabernacle of witness.
 8 And on the next day Moses went into the tabernacle of witness, and see, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi had budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.
 9 And Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord to all the children of Israel, and they looked, and took every man his rod.
 10 And the Lord said to Moses, "Bring Aaron's rod back before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels, and you shall quite take away their murmurings from me, so they don't die."
 11 And Moses did so, as the Lord commanded him, so did he.
 12 And the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, "See, we die, we perish, we all perish.
 13 Whoever comes any where near to the tabernacle of the Lord shall die, shall we be consumed with dying?"

___Numbers chapter 18
 1 And the Lord said to Aaron, "You and your sons and your father's house with you shall bear the sin of the sanctuary, and you and your sons with you shall bear the sin of your priesthood.
 2 And your brothers also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring with you, so that they will be joined to you, and minister to you, but you and your sons with you shall minister before the tabernacle of witness.
 3 And they shall keep your charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle, only they shall not come near the containers of the sanctuary and the altar, so that neither they die, nor you also die.
 4 And they shall be joined to you, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle, and a stranger shall not come near to you.
 5 And you shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, so that there is no wrath anymore on the children of Israel.
 6 And I, see, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the children of Israel, to you they are given as a gift for the Lord, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 7 Therefore you and your sons with you shall keep your priest's office for everything of the altar, and inside the veil, and you shall serve, I have given your priest's office to you as a service of gift, and the stranger that comes near shall be put to death."
 8 And the Lord spoke to Aaron, "See, I also have given you the charge of my heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel, I have given them to you by reason of the anointing, and to your sons, by an ordinance forever.
 9 This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire, every oblation of theirs, every meat offering of theirs, and every sin offering of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render to me, shall be most holy for you and for your sons.
 10 In the most holy place you shall eat it, every male shall eat it, it shall be holy to you.
 11 And this is yours, the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the children of Israel, I have given them to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, by a statute forever, everyone that is clean in your house shall eat of it.
 12 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the wheat, the first fruits of them that they shall offer to the Lord, I have given them to you.
 13 And whatever is first ripe in the land, which they shall bring to the Lord, shall be yours, everyone that is clean in your house shall eat of it.
 14 Everything devoted in Israel shall be yours.
 15 Everything that opens the womb in all flesh, which they bring to the Lord, whether it is of men or beasts, shall be yours, but the firstborn of man you shall surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts you shall redeem.
 16 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shall you redeem, according to your estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
 17 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you shall not redeem, they are holy, you shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet odor to the Lord.

 18 And the flesh of them shall be yours, like the wave breast and like the right shoulder are yours.
 19 I've given to you all the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to the Lord, and your sons and your daughters with you, by a statute forever, it is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord to you and to your children with you."
 20 And the Lord spoke to Aaron, "You shall have no inheritance in their land, nor shall you have any part among them, I am your part and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
 21 And see, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service that they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 22 Nor must the children of Israel from now on come near the tabernacle of the congregation, so they don't bear sin, and die.
 23 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall carry their sin, it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance.
 24 But the tithes of the children of Israel, that they offer as a heave offering to the Lord, I have given to the Levites to inherit, therefore I have said to them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance."
 25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 26 "Thus speak to the Levites, and say to them, When you take from the children of Israel the tithes that I've given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall offer up a heave offering of it for the Lord, one tenth of the tithe.
 27 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned to you, as though it were the corn of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the winepress.
 28 Thus you also shall offer a heave offering to the Lord of all your tithes, that you receive from the children of Israel, and you shall give of it the Lord's heave offering to Aaron the priest.
 29 Out of all your gifts you shall offer every heave offering of the Lord, of all the best of it, even the hallowed part of it out of it.
 30 Therefore you shall say to them, When you've heaved the best of it from it, then it shall be counted to the Levites like the increase of the threshing floor, and like the increase of the winepress.
 31 And you shall eat it in every place, you and your households, for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation.
 32 And you shall carry no sin because of it, when you've heaved from it the best of it, nor shall you pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, so you don't die."

___Numbers chapter 19
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
 2 "This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord has commanded, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, to bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no blemish, and on which no yoke has come,
 3 And you shall give her to Eleazar the priest, so that he can bring her outside the camp, and someone shall kill her before his face,
 4 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle some of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times,
 5 And someone shall burn the heifer in his sight, her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, he shall burn,
 6 And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and red cloth, and throw it into the middle of the burning of the heifer.
 7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until evening.
 8 And he that burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until evening.
 9 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up outside the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation, it is a purification for sin.
 10 And he that gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until evening, and it shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger that visits among them, for a statute forever.
 11 He that touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
 12 He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean, but if he doesn't purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
 13 Whoever touches the dead body of any man that is dead, and doesn't purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of the Lord, and that soul shall be cut off from Israel, because the water of separation was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean, his uncleanness is yet on him.
 14 This is the law, when a man dies in a tent, all that come into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.
 15 And every open container, that has no covering tied on it, is unclean.
 16 And whoever touches someone killed by a sword in the open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
 17 And for an unclean person they shall take some of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall be put to it in a container,
 18 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, and on all the containers, and on the persons that were there, and on him that touched a bone, or someone killed, or someone dead, or a grave,
 19 And the clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day, and on the seventh day he shall purify himself, and wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.
 20 But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the Lord, the water of separation hasn't been sprinkled on him, he is unclean.
 21 And it shall be a perpetual statute to them, that he that sprinkles the water of separation shall wash his clothes, and he that touches the water of separation shall be unclean until evening.
 22 And whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean, and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening."

___Numbers chapter 20
 1 Then the children of Israel came, the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month, and the people lived in Kadesh, and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
 2 And there was no water for the congregation, and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
 3 And the people found fault with Moses, and said, "Would God that we had died when our brothers died before the Lord!
 4 And why have you brought up the congregation of the Lord into this wilderness, so that we and our cattle would die here?
 5 And why have you made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in to this evil place?  It is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates, nor is there any water to drink."
 6 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell on their faces, and the glory of the Lord appeared to them.
 7 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 8 "Take the rod, and gather the assembly together, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, and it shall give forth its water, and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock, so you shall give the congregation and their animals drink."
 9 And Moses took the rod from before the Lord, as he commanded him.
 10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said to them, "Hear now, you rebels, must we fetch you water out of this rock?"
 11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he struck the rock twice, and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their animals also.
 12 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Because you didn't believe me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this congregation into the land that I have given them."
 13 This is the water of Meribah, because the children of Israel strove with the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.
 14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, "Thus says your brother Israel, You know all the travail that has fallen on us,
 15 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have lived in Egypt a long time, and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers,
 16 And when we cried to the Lord, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and has brought us out of Egypt, and see, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of your border,
 17 Please let us pass, through you country, we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, nor will we drink of the water of the wells, we will go by the king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your borders."
 18 And Edom said to him, "You shall not pass by me, or I'll come out against you with the sword."
 19 And the children of Israel said to him, "We will go by the highway, and if I and my cattle drink of your water, then I will pay for it, I will only, without doing anything else, go through on foot."
 20 And he said, "You shall not go through."  And Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
 21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
 22 And the children of Israel, the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came to Mount Hor.
 23 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
 24 "Aaron shall be gathered to his people, for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
 25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor,
 26 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son, and Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and shall die there."
 27 And Moses did as the Lord commanded, and they went up into Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
 28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son, and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
 29 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, all the house of Israel.

___Numbers chapter 21
 1 And when king Arad the Canaanite, who lived in the south, heard that Israel came by the way of the spies, then he fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners.
 2 And Israel vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, "If you'll indeed deliver these people into my hand, then I will completely destroy their cities."
 3 And the Lord listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites, and they completely destroyed them and their cities, and he called the name of the place Hormah.
 4 And they journeyed from Mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to go around the land of Edom, and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
 5 And the people spoke against God, and against Moses, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness?  For there is no bread, nor is there any water, and our soul loathes this light bread."
 6 And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, and many people of Israel died.
 7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against you, pray to the Lord, so that he'll take away the serpents from us."  And Moses prayed for the people.
 8 And the Lord said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole, and it shall occur, that everyone that is bitten, when he looks on it, shall live."
 9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it on a pole, and if a serpent had bitten any man, when he saw the serpent of brass, he lived.
 10 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth.
 11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sun rising.
 12 From there they moved, and pitched in the valley of Zared.
 13 From there they moved, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the coasts of the Amorites, for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
 14 So it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord, What he did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,
 15 And at the stream of the brooks that goes down to the dwelling of Ar, and lies on the border of Moab.
 16 And from there they went to Beer, that is the well about which the Lord spoke to Moses, "Gather the people together, and I will give them water."
 17 Then Israel sang this song, "Spring up, O well, sing to it,
 18 The princes dug the well, the nobles of the people dug it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves."  And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah,
 19 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
 20 And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, that looks toward Jeshimon.
 21 And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
 22 "Let me pass through your land, we will not turn into the fields, or into the vineyards, we will not drink of the waters of the well, but we will go along by the king's highway, until we've gone past your borders."
 23 And Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
 24 And Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from Arnon to Jabbok, up to the children of Ammon, for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
 25 And Israel took all these cities, and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages of it.
 26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, up to Arnon.
 27 So those who speak in proverbs say, "Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared,
 28 For a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon, it has consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the high places of Arnon.
 29 Woe to you, Moab!  You are undone, O people of Chemosh, he has given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity to Sihon king of the Amorites.
 30 We have shot at them, Heshbon has perished up to Dibon, and we have laid them waste up to Nophah, that reaches to Medeba."
 31 Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
 32 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages of it, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
 33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan, and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei.
 34 And the Lord said to Moses, "Don't be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land, and you'll do to him like you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon."
 35 So they struck him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was no one left alive to him, and they possessed his land.

___Numbers chapter 22
 1 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side of Jordan by Jericho.
 2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
 3 And Moab was very afraid of the people, because they were many, and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
 4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, "Now shall this company lick up all that are around us, like the ox licks up the grass of the field."  And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.
 5 He sent messengers therefore to Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, "See, there is a people that has come out from Egypt, see, they cover the face of the earth, and they live opposite me,
 6 Come now therefore, please, curse these people for me, for they are too mighty for me, perhaps I'll prevail, so that we can strike them, and so that I can drive them out of the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed."
 7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand, and they came to Balaam, and spoke to him the words of Balak.
 8 And he said to them, "Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again, as the Lord shall speak to me," and the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam.
 9 And God came to Balaam, and said, "What men are these with you?"
 10 And Balaam said to God, "Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent to me, saying,
 11 See, there is a people that's come out of Egypt, that covers the face of the earth, come now, curse them for me, perhaps I'll be able to overcome them, and drive them out."
 12 And God said to Balaam, "You shall not go with them, you shall not curse the people, for they are blessed."
 13 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said to the princes of Balak, "Go back to your land, for the Lord refuses to give me permission to go with you."
 14 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went to Balak, and said, "Balaam refuses to come with us."
 15 And Balak sent again princes, more, and more honorable than the others.
 16 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, "Thus says Balak the son of Zippor, Please let nothing hinder you from coming to me,
 17 For I will promote you to very great honor, and I will do whatever you say to me, come therefore, please, curse for me these people."
 18 And Balaam answered the servants of Balak, "If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I can't go beyond the word of the Lord my God, to do less or more.
 19 Now therefore, plsase, wait also here this night, so that I will know what more the Lord will say to me."
 20 And God came to Balaam at night, and said to him, "If the men come to call you, rise up, and go with them, but yet the word which I shall say to you, you shall do that."
 21 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
 22 And God's anger was kindled because he went, and the angel of the Lord stood in the way for an adversary against him.  Now he was riding on his ass, and his two servants were with him.
 23 And the ass saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand, and the ass turned aside out off the road, and went into the field, and Balaam struck the ass, to turn her onto the road.
 24 But the angel of the Lord stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
 25 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she thrust herself against the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall, and he struck her again.
 26 And the angel of the Lord went further, and stood in a narrow place, where there was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
 27 And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she fell down under Balaam, and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he struck the ass with a staff.
 28 And the Lord opened the mouth of the ass, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you've struck me these three times?"
 29 And Balaam said to the ass, "Because you've mocked me, I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now would I kill you."
 30 And the ass said to Balaam, "Am I not your ass, on which you've ridden ever since I was yours until this day?  Did I ever do like that to you?"  And he said, "No."
 31 Then the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand, and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.
 32 And the angel of the Lord said to him, "Why have you struck your ass these three times?  See, I went out to withstand you, because your way is perverse before me,
 33 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times, unless she had turned from me, surely now also I would have killed you, and saved her alive."
 34 And Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, "I have sinned, for I didn't know that you stood in the way against me, now therefore, if it displeases you, I will go back again."
 35 And the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but only the word that I shall speak to you, that's what you'll say."  So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
 36 And when Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to meet him to a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, that is in the utmost coast.
 37 And Balak said to Balaam, "Didn't I earnestly send to you to call you?  Why didn't you come to me?  Am I not able indeed to promote you to honor?"
 38 And Balaam said to Balak, "See, I've come to you, Do I now have any power at all to say anything?  The word that God puts in my mouth, that's what I'll say."
 39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjathhuzoth.
 40 And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.
 41 And on the next day, Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, so that from there he could see the utmost part of the people.

___Numbers chapter 23
 1 And Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams."
 2 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
 3 And Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go, perhaps the Lord will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me I will tell you."  And he went to a high place.
 4 And God met Balaam, and he said to him, "I have prepared seven altars, and I have offered on every altar a bullock and a ram."
 5 And the Lord put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak."
 6 And he returned to him, and see, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
 7 And he took up his parable, and said, "Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.
 8 How shall I curse whom God has not cursed?  Or how shall I defy, whom the Lord has not defied?
 9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I look at him, see, the people shall live alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.
 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of one fourth of Israel?  Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!"
 11 And Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me?  I took you to curse my enemies, and see, you've completely blessed them."
 12 And he answered, "Must I not take heed to speak what the Lord has put in my mouth?"
 13 And Balak said to him, "Please come, with me to another place, from where you can see them, you shall see only the utmost part of them, and shall not see them all, and curse them for me from there."
 14 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
 15 And he said to Balak, "Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet the Lord over there."
 16 And the Lord met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, "Go again to Balak, and say thus."
 17 And when he came to him, see, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him.  And Balak said to him, "What has the Lord spoken?"
 18 And he took up his parable, and said, "Rise up, Balak, and hear, listen to me, you son of Zippor,
 19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor the son of man, that he should change his mind, has he said, and shall he not do it?  Or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
 20 See, I have received commandment to bless, and he has blessed, and I can't reverse it.
 21 He has not seen sin in Jacob, nor has he seen perverseness in Israel, the Lord his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
 22 God brought them out of Egypt, he has strength like a wild bull.
 23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, nor is there any divination against Israel, according to this time it shall be said about Jacob and about Israel, What has God done!
 24 See, the people shall rise up like a great lion, and lift up themselves like a young lion, he shall not lie down until he eats of the prey, and drinks the blood of the slain."
 25 And Balak said to Balaam, "Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all."
 26 But Balaam answered Balak, "Didn't I tell you, All that the Lord says, I must do?"
 27 And Balak said to Balaam, "Please come, I will bring you to another place, perhaps it will please God that you can curse them for me from there."
 28 And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks toward Jeshimon.
 29 And Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams."
 30 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

___Numbers chapter 24
 1 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he didn't go, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
 2 And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel living in his tents according to their tribes, and the spirit of God came on him.
 3 And he took up his parable, and said, "Balaam the son of Beor has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said,
 4 He has said, who heard the words of God, who saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open,
 5 How good are your tents, O Jacob, and your tabernacles, O Israel!
 6 Like the valleys they are spread forth, like gardens by the river's side, like the trees of lign aloes that the Lord has planted, and like cedar trees beside the waters.
 7 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.
 8 God brought him out of Egypt, he has strength like a wild bull, he shall eat up the nations that are his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
 9 He couched, he lay down like a lion, and like a great lion, who shall stir him up?  Blessed is he that blesses you, and cursed is he that curses you."
 10 And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he struck his hands together, and Balak said to Balaam, "I called you to curse my enemies, and, see, you've completely blessed them these three times.
 11 Therefore now flee to your place, I thought to promote you to great honor, but, see, the Lord has kept you back from honor."
 12 And Balaam said to Balak, "Didn't I say also to your messengers that you sent to me, saying,
 13 If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I can't go beyond the commandment of the Lord, to do either good or bad of my own mind, but what the Lord says, that's what I'll say?
 14 And now, see, I go to my people, come therefore, and I will tell you what these people shall do to your people in the latter days."
 15 And he took up his parable, and said, "Balaam the son of Beor has said, and the man whose eyes are open has said,
 16 He has said, who heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, who saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open,
 17 I shall see him, but not now, I shall see him, but not near, a Star shall come out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall strike the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
 18 And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies, and Israel shall do valiantly.
 19 He that shall have dominion shall come out of Jacob, and shall destroy him that remains of the city."
 20 And when he looked at Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, "Amalek was the first of the nations, but his latter end shall be that he perishes forever."
 21 And he looked at the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, "Strong is your dwelling place, and you put your nest in a rock.
 22 But the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry you away captive."
 23 And he took up his parable, and said, "Alas, who shall live when God does this!
 24 And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish forever."
 25 And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place, and Balak also went his way.

___Numbers chapter 25
 1 And Israel lived in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
 2 And they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.
 3 And Israel joined himself to Baalpeor, and the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel.
 4 And the Lord said to Moses, "Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the Lord opposite the sun, so that the fierce anger of the Lord will be turned away from Israel."
 5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, "Kill everyone his men that were joined to Baalpeor."
 6 And see, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
 7 And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand,
 8 And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly.  So the plague was stopped from the children of Israel.
 9 And those that died in the plague were twenty four thousand.
 10 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 11 "Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my anger away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, so that I didn't consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.
 12 Wherefore say, See, I give to him my covenant of peace,
 13 And he shall have it, and his descendants after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel."
 14 Now the name of the Israelite that was killed, that was killed with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.
 15 And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur, he was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian.
 16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 17 "Vex the Midianites, and strike them,
 18 For they vex you with their wiles, with which they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who was killed on the day of the plague for Peor's sake."

___Numbers chapter 26
 1 And after the plague, the Lord spoke to Moses and to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying,
 2 "Take the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, from twenty years old and older, throughout their fathers' house, all that are able to go to war in Israel."
 3 And Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
 4 "Take the sum of the people, from twenty years old and older, as the Lord commanded Moses and the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt.

___Numbers chapter 27
 1 Then the daughters of Zelophehad came, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
 2 And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
 3 "Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of those who gathered themselves together against the Lord in the company of Korah, but died in his own sin, and had no sons.
 4 Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he has no son?  Give to us therefore a possession among the brothers of our father."
 5 And Moses brought their cause before the Lord.
 6 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 7 "The daughters of Zelophehad speak right, you shall surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brothers, and you shall cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
 8 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a man dies, and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
 9 And if he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
 10 And if he have no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father's brothers.
 11 And if his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it, and it shall be to the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the Lord commanded Moses."
 12 And the Lord said to Moses, "Get up into this Mount Abarim, and see the land that I've given to the children of Israel.
 13 And when you've seen it, you also shall be gathered to people, like Aaron your brother was gathered.
 14 For you rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes, that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin."
 15 And Moses spoke to the Lord, saying,
 16 "Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
 17 Who will go out before them, and who will go in before them, and who will lead them out, and who will bring them in, so that the congregation of the Lord are not like sheep that have no shepherd."
 18 And the Lord said to Moses, "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay your hand on him,
 19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation, and give him a charge in their sight.
 20 And you shall put some of your honor on him, so that all the congregation of the children of Israel will be obedient.
 21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask advice for him after the judgment of Urim before the Lord, at his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, all the congregation."
 22 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation,
 23 And he laid his hands on him, and gave him a charge, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.

___Numbers chapter 28
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Command the children of Israel, and say to them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet odor to me, you shall observe to offer to me in their due season.
 3 And you shall say to them, This is the offering made by fire that you shall offer to the Lord, two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering.
 4 The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at evening,
 5 And one tenth of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mixed with one fourth of a hin of beaten oil.
 6 It is a continual burnt offering, that was ordained in Mount Sinai for a sweet odor, a sacrifice made by fire to the Lord.
 7 And the drink offering of it shall be one fourth of a hin for the one lamb, in the holy place you shall cause the strong wine to be poured to the Lord for a drink offering.
 8 And the other lamb you shall offer at evening, like the meat offering of the morning, and like the drink offering of it, you shall offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet odor to the Lord.
 9 And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, and the drink offering of it,
 10 This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
 11 And in the beginnings of your months you shall offer a burnt offering to the Lord, two young bullocks, and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without spot,
 12 And three tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, for one bullock, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, for one ram,
 13 And a several tenth deal of flour mixed with oil for a meat offering to one lamb, for a burnt offering of a sweet odor, a sacrifice made by fire to the Lord.
 14 And their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine to a bullock, 
and one third of a hin to a ram, and one fourth of a hin to a lamb, this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.
 15 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering to the Lord shall be offered, beside the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
 16 And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the Lord.
 17 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast, seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
 18 In the first day shall be a holy convocation, you shall do no kind of servile work in it,
 19 But you shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering to the Lord, two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven lambs of the first year, they shall be to you without blemish,
 20 And their meat offering shall be of flour mixed with oil, three tenth deals shall you offer for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram,
 21 A several tenth deal you shall offer for every lamb, throughout the seven lambs,
 22 And one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you.
 23 You shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.
 24 After this manner you shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet odor to the Lord, it shall be offered beside the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
 25 And on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation, you shall do no servile work.
 26 Also in the day of the first fruits, when you bring a new meat offering to the Lord, after your weeks are out, you shall have a holy convocation, you shall do no servile work,
 27 But you shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet odor to the Lord, two young bullocks, one ram, seven lambs of the first year,
 28 And their meat offering of flour mixed with oil, three tenth deals to one bullock, two tenth deals to one ram,
 29 A several tenth deal to one lamb, throughout the seven lambs,

 40 And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the Lord commanded Moses.

___Numbers chapter 30
 1 And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing that the Lord has commanded.
 2 If a man vows a vow to the Lord, or swears an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.
 3 If a woman also vows a vow to the Lord, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth,
 4 And her father hears her vow, and her bond with which she has bound her soul, and her father shall be silent to her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she has bound her soul shall stand.
 5 But if her father disallows her on the day that he hears, not any of her vows, or of her bonds with which she has bound her soul, shall stand, and the Lord shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
 6 And if she at all had a husband, when she vowed, or uttered anything out of her lips, with which she bound her soul,
 7 And her husband heard it, and was silent to her in the day that he heard it, then her vows shall stand, and her bonds with which she bound her soul shall stand.
 8 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it, then he shall make her vow that she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, with which she bound her soul, of no effect, and the Lord shall forgive her.
 9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, with which they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
 10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
 11 And her husband heard it, and was silent to her, and didn't disallow her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand.
 12 But if her husband has completely made them void on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand, her husband has made them void, and the Lord shall forgive her.
 13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
 14 But if her husband completely stays silent to her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows, or all her bonds, that are on her, he confirms them, because he was silent to her on the day that he heard them.
 15 But if he shall in any way make them void after he has heard them, then he shall bear her sin."
 16 These are the statutes, that the Lord commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's house.

___Numbers chapter 31
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites, afterward you shall be gathered to your people."
 3 And Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm some of yourselves for the war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the Lord against Midian.
 4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, you shall send to the war."
 5 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand from every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
 6 And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his hand.
 7 And they warred against the Midianites, as the Lord commanded Moses, and they killed all the males.
 8 And they killed the kings of Midian, beside the rest of those who were killed, namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian, they also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
 9 And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods.
 10 And they burned all their cities in which they lived, and all their good castles, with fire.
 11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
 12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho.
 13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside the camp.
 14 And Moses was angry with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, who came from the battle.
 15 And Moses said to them, "Have you saved all the women alive?
 16 See, these caused the children of Israel, through the advice of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord.
 17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that has known man by lying with him.
 18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
 19 And stay outside the camp seven days, whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any dead, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
 20 And purify all your clothing, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood."
 21 And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war that went to the battle, "This is the ordinance of the law that the Lord commanded Moses,
 22 Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
 23 Everything that will survive the fire, you shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean, but it shall be purified with the water of separation, and all that won't survive the fire you shall make go through the water.
 24 And you shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean, and afterward you shall come into the camp."
 25 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 26 "Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation,
 27 And divide the prey into two parts, between those who took the war on them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation,
 28 And levy a tribute to the Lord of the men of war who went out to battle, one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep,
 29 Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for a heave offering of the Lord.
 30 And of the children of Israel's half, you shall take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, of all kinds of animals, and give them to the Levites, who keep the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord."
 31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.
 32 And the booty, being the rest of the prey that the men of war had caught, was six hundred seventy thousand five thousand sheep,
 33 And seventy two thousand beeves,
 34 And sixty one thousand asses,
 35 And thirty two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
 36 And the half, that was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty seven thousand five hundred sheep,
 37 And the Lord's tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy five.
 38 And the beeves were thirty six thousand, of which the Lord's tribute was seventy two.
 39 And the asses were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the Lord's tribute was sixty one.
 40 And the persons were sixteen thousand, of which the Lord's tribute was thirty two persons.
 41 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the Lord's heave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 42 And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
 43 (Now the half that pertained to the congregation was three hundred thirty seven thousand five hundred sheep,
 44 And thirty six thousand beeves,
 45 And thirty thousand five hundred asses,
 46 And sixteen thousand persons,)
 47 Of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
 48 And the officers who were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near Moses,
 49 And they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our charge, and not one man of us is lacking.
 50 We have therefore brought an offering for the Lord, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the Lord.
 51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, all wrought jewels.
 52 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the Lord, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels.
 53 (For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
 54 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord.

___Numbers chapter 32
 1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle, and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that, see, the place was a place for cattle,
 2 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,
 3 "Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
 4 The country that the Lord struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and your servants have cattle,"
 5 So they said, "If we have found grace in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession, and don't take us over Jordan."
 6 And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, "Shall your brothers go to war, and shall you sit here?
 7 And why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land that the Lord has given them?
 8 That's what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.
 9 For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, so that they wouldn't go into the land that the Lord had given them.
 10 And the Lord's anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,
 11 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and older, shall see the land that I promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not completely followed me,
 12 Except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have completely followed the Lord.
 13 And the Lord's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord, was consumed.
 14 And see, you have risen up instead of your fathers, an increase of sinful men, to sharpen even more the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.
 15 For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness, and you'll destroy all these people."
 16 And they came near him, and said, "We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones,
 17 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place, and our little ones shall live in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
 18 We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.
 19 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side of Jordan eastward."
 20 And Moses said to them, "If you'll do this thing, if you'll go armed before the Lord to war,
 21 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the Lord, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
 22 And the land is subdued before the Lord, then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless before the Lord, and before Israel, and this land shall be your possession before the Lord.
 23 But if you won't do so, see, you've sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out.
 24 Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep, and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth."
 25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, "Your servants will do as our lord commands.
 26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead,
 27 But your servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle, as our lord said.
 28 So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel,
 29 And Moses said to them, "If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed to battle, before the Lord, and the land shall be subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession,
 30 But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan."
 31 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, "As the Lord has said to your servants, that's what we'll do.
 32 We will pass over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, so that the possession of our inheritance on this side of Jordan will be ours."
 33 And Moses gave them, to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities of it in the coasts, the cities of the country around there.
 34 And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
 35 And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
 36 And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities, and folds for sheep.
 37 And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
 38 And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah, and gave other names to the cities that they built.
 39 And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites that were in it.
 40 And Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh, and he lived in it.
 41 And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns of it, and called them Havothjair.
 42 And Nobah went and took Kenath, and the villages of it, and called it Nobah, after his own name.

___Numbers chapter 33
 1 These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt with their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.
 2 And Moses wrote their goings out according to their journeys by the commandment of the Lord, and these are their journeys according to their goings out.
 3 And they departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month, on the next day after the passover the children of Israel went out with a high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians.
 4 For the Egyptians buried all their firstborn, that the Lord had struck among them, on their gods also the Lord executed judgments.
 5 And the children of Israel moved from Rameses, and pitched in Succoth.
 6 And they departed from Succoth, and pitched in Etham, which is in the edge of the wilderness.
 7 And they moved from Etham, and turned again to Pihahiroth, that is before Baalzephon, and they pitched before Migdol.
 8 And they departed from before Pihahiroth, and passed through the middle of the sea into the wilderness, and went three days' journey in the wilderness of Etham, and pitched in Marah.
 9 And they moved from Marah, and came to Elim, and in Elim there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees, and they pitched there.
 10 And they moved from Elim, and encamped by the Red sea.
 11 And they moved from the Red sea, and encamped in the wilderness of Sin.
 12 And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin, and encamped in Dophkah.
 13 And they departed from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush.
 14 And they moved from Alush, and encamped at Rephidim, where there was no water for the people to drink.
 15 And they departed from Rephidim, and pitched in the wilderness of Sinai.
 16 And they moved from the desert of Sinai, and pitched at Kibrothhattaavah.
 17 And they departed from Kibrothhattaavah, and encamped at Hazeroth.
 18 And they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah.
 19 And they departed from Rithmah, and pitched at Rimmonparez.
 20 And they departed from Rimmonparez, and pitched in Libnah.
 21 And they moved from Libnah, and pitched at Rissah.
 22 And they journeyed from Rissah, and pitched in Kehelathah.
 23 And they went from Kehelathah, and pitched in mount Shapher.
 24 And they moved from Mount Shapher, and encamped in Haradah.
 25 And they moved from Haradah, and pitched in Makheloth.
 26 And they moved from Makheloth, and encamped at Tahath.
 27 And they departed from Tahath, and pitched at Tarah.
 28 And they moved from Tarah, and pitched in Mithcah.
 29 And they went from Mithcah, and pitched in Hashmonah.
 30 And they departed from Hashmonah, and encamped at Moseroth.
 31 And they departed from Moseroth, and pitched in Benejaakan.
 32 And they moved from Benejaakan, and encamped at Horhagidgad.
 33 And they went from Horhagidgad, and pitched in Jotbathah.
 34 And they moved from Jotbathah, and encamped at Ebronah.
 35 And they departed from Ebronah, and encamped at Eziongaber.
 36 And they moved from Eziongaber, and pitched in the wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.
 37 And they moved from Kadesh, and pitched in Mount Hor, in the edge of the land of Edom.
 38 And Aaron the priest went up into Mount Hor at the commandment of the Lord, and died there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the first day of the fifth month.
 39 And Aaron was one hundred twenty three years old when he died in Mount Hor.
 40 And king Arad the Canaanite, who lived in the south in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel.
 41 And they departed from Mount Hor, and pitched in Zalmonah.
 42 And they departed from Zalmonah, and pitched in Punon.
 43 And they departed from Punon, and pitched in Oboth.
 44 And they departed from Oboth, and pitched in Ijeabarim, in the border of Moab.
 45 And they departed from Iim, and pitched in Dibongad.
 46 And they moved from Dibongad, and encamped in Almondiblathaim.
 47 And they moved from Almondiblathaim, and pitched in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo.
 48 And they departed from the mountains of Abarim, and pitched in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
 49 And they pitched by Jordan, from Bethjesimoth even to Abelshittim in the plains of Moab.
 50 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
 51 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you've passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan,
 52 Then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places,
 53 And you shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and live in it, for I have given you the land to possess it.
 54 And you shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families, and to the more you shall give the larger inheritance, and to the fewer you shall give the smaller inheritance, every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falls, according to the tribes of your fathers you shall inherit.
 55 But if you won't drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then those that you let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land in which you live.
 56 Also I shall do to you, as I thought to do to them."

___Numbers chapter 34
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 2 "Command the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan, (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan with the coasts of it,)
 3 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward,
 4 And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin, and the going forth of it shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea, and shall go on to Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon,
 5 And the border shall circle from Azmon to the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.
 6 And as for the western border, you shall have the great sea for a border, this shall be your west border.
 7 And this shall be your north border, from the great sea you shall point out for yourselves Mount Hor,
 8 From Mount Hor you shall point out your border to the entrance of Hamath, and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad,
 9 And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazarenan, this shall be your north border.
 10 And you shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham,
 11 And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain, and the border shall descend, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward,
 12 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the salt sea, this shall be your land with the coasts of it around there."
 13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, "This is the land that you shall inherit by lot, that the Lord commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe,
 14 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance,
 15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side of Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sun rising."
 16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 17 "These are the names of the men that shall divide the land to you, Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
 18 And you shall take one prince from every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance.
 19 And the names of the men are these, Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
 20 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
 21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
 22 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli.
 23 The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod.
 24 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.

 26 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
 27 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
 28 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud."
 29 These are those whom the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance to the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.

___Numbers chapter 35
 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
 2 "Command the children of Israel, that they give to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to live in, and you shall give also to the Levites suburbs for the cities around them.
 3 And they shall have the cities to live in, and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
 4 And the suburbs of the cities, that you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward five hundred yards all around.
 5 And you shall measure from outside the city on the east side one thousand yards, and on the south side one thousand yards, and on the west side one thousand yards, and on the north side one thousand yards, and the city shall be in the middle, this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
 6 And among the cities that you shall give to the Levites there shall be six cities for refuge, that you shall appoint for the manslayer, so he can flee there, and to them you shall add forty two cities.
 7 So all the cities that you shall give to the Levites shall be forty eight cities, you shall give them with their suburbs.
 8 And the cities that you shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel, from those who have many you shall give many, but from those who have few you shall give few, everyone shall give of his cities to the Levites according to his inheritance that he inherits."
 9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
 10 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you've come over Jordan into the land of Canaan,
 11 Then you shall appoint cities to be cities of refuge for you, so the slayer can flee there, who kills any person unintentionally.
 12 And they shall be to you cities for refuge from the avenger, so the manslayer doesn't die, until he stands before the congregation in judgment.
 13 And of these cities that you shall give, you shall have six cities for refuge.
 14 You shall give three cities on this side of Jordan, and three cities you shall give in the land of Canaan, that shall be cities of refuge.
 15 These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the visitor among them, so that everyone that kills any person unintentionally can flee there.
 16 And if he strikes him with an instrument of iron, so that he dies, he is a murderer, the murderer shall surely be put to death.
 17 And if he strikes him by throwing a stone with which he could die, and he dies, he is a murderer, the murderer shall surely be put to death.
 18 Or if he strikes him with a hand weapon of wood, with which he could die, and he dies, he is a murderer, the murderer shall surely be put to death.
 19 The revenger of blood himself shall kill the murderer, when he meets him, he shall kill him.
 20 But if he thrusts him of hatred, or hurls at him by laying of wait, so that he dies,
 21 Or in enmity smites him with his hand, so that he dies, he that struck him shall surely be put to death, for he is a murderer, the revenger of blood shall kill the murderer, when he meets him.
 22 But if he thrusts him suddenly without hatred, or has thrown at him anything without laying of wait,
 23 Or with any stone, with which a man could die, not seeing him, 
and throws it at him, so that he dies, and was not his enemy, and didn't seek his harm,
 24 Then the congregation shall judge between the killer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments,
 25 And the congregation shall deliver the killer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, where he had fled, and he shall stay in it until the death of the high priest, that was anointed with the holy oil.
 26 But if the killer shall at any time come outside the border of the city of his refuge, where he has fled to,
 27 And the revenger of blood finds him outside the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kills the slayer, he shall not be guilty of blood,
 28 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest, but after the death of the high priest the killer shall return to the land of his possession.
 29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
 30 Whoever kills any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses, but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.
 31 Also you shall take no fine for the life of a murderer, that is guilty of death, but he shall be surely put to death.
 32 And you shall take no fine for him that has fled to the city of his refuge, so that he should come again to live in the land, until the death of the priest.
 33 So you shall not pollute the land in which you are, for blood defiles the land, and the land can't be cleansed from the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of him that shed it.
 34 Therefore don't defile the land that you'll inhabit, in which I live, for I the Lord live among the children of Israel."

___Numbers chapter 36
 1 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spoke before Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel,
 2 And they said, "The Lord commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel, and my lord was commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
 3 And if they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then their inheritance shall be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe to which they are received, so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
 4 And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then their inheritance shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe to which they are received, so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."
 5 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying, "The tribe of the sons of Joseph has spoken well.
 6 This is the thing that the Lord commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best, only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.
 7 So the inheritance of the children of Israel won't remove from tribe to tribe, for everyone of the children of Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
 8 And every daughter, that possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, so that the children of Israel will enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.
 9 Nor shall the inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe, but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
 10 As the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad,
 11 For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father's brothers' sons,
 12 And they were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
 13 These are the commandments and the judgments, that the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses to the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
 
___Deuteronomy chapter 1
 1 These are the words that Moses spoke to all Israel on this side of Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain opposite the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
 2 (There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadeshbarnea.)
 3 And in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that the Lord had given him in commandment to them,
 4 After he had killed Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived at Astaroth in Edrei,
 5 On this side of Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,
 6 "The Lord our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, You have lived long enough in this mountain,
 7 Turn and take your journey, and go to the mountain of the Amorites, and to all the places near there, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and to Lebanon, to the great river, the river Euphrates.
 8 See, I have set the land before you, go in and possess the land that the Lord promised to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them.
 9 And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I am not able to carry you myself alone,
 10 The Lord your God has multiplied you, and see, you are this day like the stars of heaven for multitude.
 11 (The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times as many more as you are, and bless you, as he has promised you!)
 12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
 13 Take wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.
 14 And you answered me, and said, The thing that you've spoken is good for us to do.
 15 So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.
 16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brothers, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.
 17 You shall not respect persons in judgment, but you shall hear the small as well as the great, you shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God's, and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it to me, and I will hear it.
 18 And I commanded you at that time all the things that you should do.
 19 And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, that you saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, like the Lord our God commanded us, and we came to Kadeshbarnea.
 20 And I said to you, You've come to the mountain of the Amorites, that the Lord our God gives to us.
 21 See, the Lord your God has set the land before you, go up and possess it, as the Lord God of your fathers has said to you, don't be afraid, nor be discouraged.
 22 And you came near me everyone of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.
 23 And the saying pleased me well, and I took twelve men of you, one per tribe,
 24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.
 25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land that the Lord our God gives us.
 26 But you wouldn't go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God,
 27 And you murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
 28 Where shall we go up?  Our brothers have discouraged our heart, saying, The people are greater and taller than we are, the cities are great and walled up to heaven, and also we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.
 29 Then I said to you, Don't dread, nor be afraid of them.
 30 The Lord your God who goes before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
 31 And in the wilderness, where you've seen how the Lord your God carries you, like a man carries his son, in all the way that you went, until you came into this place.
 32 Yet in this thing you didn't believe the Lord your God,
 33 Who went in the way before you, to search out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in a cloud by day.
 34 And the Lord heard the voice of your words, and was angry, and swore, saying,
 35 Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see that good land, that I promised to give to your fathers,
 36 Except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, he shall see it, and to him I will give the land that he has walked on, and to his children, because he has completely followed the Lord.
 37 Also the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, saying, You also shall not go in there.
 38 But Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, he shall go in there, encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
 39 Also your little ones, that you said would be a prey, and your children, who in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in there, and to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.
 40 But as for you, turn and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
 41 Then you answered me, We have sinned against the Lord, we will go up and fight, according to all that the Lord our God commanded us.  And when you had girded on every man his weapons of war, you were ready to go up into the hill.
 42 And the Lord said to me, Say to them, Don't go up, nor fight, for I am not among you, so you won't be struck before your enemies.
 43 So I spoke to you, and you wouldn't listen, but rebelled against the commandment of the Lord, and went presumptuously up into the hill.
 44 And the Amorites, who lived in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, like bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, as far as Hormah.
 45 And you returned and wept before the Lord, but the Lord wouldn't listen to your voice, nor give ear to you.
 46 So you lived in Kadesh many days, according to the days that you lived there."

___Deuteronomy chapter 2
 1 "Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, like the Lord said to me, and we circled Mount Seir many days.
 2 And the Lord spoke to me, saying,
 3 You've circled this mountain long enough, turn northward.
 4 And command the people, saying, You are to pass through the coast of your brothers the children of Esau, who live in Seir, and they shall be afraid of you, take good heed to yourselves therefore,
 5 Don't mess with them, for I will not give you any of their land, no, not so much as a foot width, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
 6 You shall buy food from them for money, so you can eat, and you shall also buy water from them for money, so you can drink.
 7 For the Lord your God has blessed you in all the works of your hand, he knows your walking through this great wilderness, these forty years the Lord your God has been with you, you've lacked nothing.
 8 And when we passed by from our brothers the children of Esau, who lived in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, and from Eziongaber, we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
 9 And the Lord said to me, Don't distress the Moabites, nor contend with them in battle, for I will not give you any of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.
 10 The Emims lived in it in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, like the Anakims,
 11 Who also were accounted giants, like the Anakims, but the Moabites call them Emims.
 12 The Horims also lived in Seir before, but the children of Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and lived instead of them, like Israel did to the land of his possession, that the Lord gave them.
 13 Now rise up, I said, and get over the brook Zered.  And we went over the brook Zered.
 14 And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea, until we had come over the brook Zered, was thirty eight years, until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out from among the host, like the Lord swore to them.
 15 For indeed the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from among the host, until they were consumed.
 16 So when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
 17 The Lord spoke to me, saying,
 18 You are to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, today,
 19 And when you come near opposite the children of Ammon, don't distress them, nor mess with them, for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon any possession, because I've given it to the children of Lot for a possession.
 20 (That also was seen as a land of giants, giants lived in it in old time, and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims,
 21 A people great, and many, and tall, like the Anakims, but the Lord destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them, and lived instead of them,
 22 Like he did to the children of Esau, who live in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims from before them, and they succeeded them, and lived instead of them until this day,
 23 And the Avims who live in Hazerim, as far as Azzah, the Caphtorims, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and lived instead of them.)
 24 Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon, see, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land, begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
 25 This day I will begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report about you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.
 26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
 27 Let me pass through your land, I will go along by the high way, I will neither turn to the right hand nor to the left.
 28 You shall sell me food for money, so I can eat, and give me water for money, so I can drink, only I will pass through on my feet,
 29 (Like the children of Esau who live in Seir, and the Moabites who live in Ar, did to me,) until I pass over Jordan into the land that the Lord our God gives us.
 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon wouldn't let us pass by him, for the Lord your God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, so that he would deliver him into your hand, as we see this day.
 31 And the Lord said to me, See, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before you, begin to possess, so you can inherit his land.
 32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Jahaz.
 33 And the Lord our God delivered him before us, and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.
 34 And we took all his cities at that time, and completely destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left no one remaining,
 35 We took only the cattle for a prey for ourselves, and the spoil of the cities that we took.
 36 From Aroer, that is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is by the river, as far as Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us, the Lord our God delivered all to us,
 37 Only you didn't come to the land of the children of Ammon, nor to any place of the river Jabbok, nor to the cities in the mountains, nor to whatever the Lord our God said not to go to."

___Deuteronomy chapter 3
 1 "Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan, and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
 2 And the Lord said to me, Don't be afraid of him, for I will deliver him and all his people, and his land, into your hand, and you shall do to him like you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.
 3 So the Lord our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people, and we struck him until no one remained to him.
 4 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city that we didn't take from them, sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
 5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars, beside unwalled towns a great many.
 6 And we completely destroyed them, like we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, completely destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.
 7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey for ourselves.
 8 And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side of Jordan, from the river of Arnon as far as mount Hermon,
 9 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion, and the Amorites call it Shenir,)
 10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
 11 For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants, see, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron, is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon?  The length of it was thirteen and one half feet, and the width of it was six feet.
 12 And this land, that we took at that time, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, and half Mount Gilead, and the cities of it, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
 13 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half tribe of Manasseh, all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, that was called the land of giants.
 14 Jair the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob to the coasts of Geshuri and Maachathi, and called them by his own name, Bashanhavothjair, until this day.
 15 And I gave Gilead to Machir.
 16 And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites, I gave from Gilead to the river Arnon half the valley, and the border to the river Jabbok, that is the border of the children of Ammon,
 17 The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast of it, from Chinnereth as far as the sea of the plain, the salt sea, under Ashdothpisgah eastward.
 18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, The Lord your God has given you this land to possess it, you shall pass over armed before your brothers the children of Israel, all that can fight in the war.
 19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I know that you have much cattle,) shall live in your cities that I've given to you,
 20 Until the Lord has given rest to your brothers, as well as to you, and until they also possess the land that the Lord your God has given to them beyond Jordan, and then you shall return every man to his possession, that I have given you.
 21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Your eyes have seen all that the Lord your God has done to these two kings, so shall the Lord do to all the kingdoms where you pass.
 22 You shall not fear them, for the Lord your God shall fight for you.
 23 And I besought the Lord at that time, saying,
 24 O Lord God, you've begun to show your servant your greatness, and your mighty hand, for what God is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to your works, and according to your might?
 25 Please let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond Jordan, that good mountain, and Lebanon.
 26 But the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, and wouldn't listen to me, and the Lord said to me, Let it be sufficient for you, don't talk to me anymore about this matter.
 27 Get up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up your eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and see it with your eyes, for you won't go over this Jordan.
 28 But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him, for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land that you shall see.
 29 So we lived in the valley opposite Bethpeor."

___Deuteronomy chapter 4
 1 "Now therefore listen, O Israel, to the statutes and to the judgments, that I teach you, to do them, so that you'll live, and go in and possess the land that the Lord God of your fathers gives you.
 2 You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor shall you diminish anything from it, so that you'll keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you.
 3 Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baalpeor, for all the men that followed Baalpeor, the Lord your God has destroyed them from among you.
 4 But you that stuck with the Lord your God are alive every one of you this day.
 5 See, I have taught you statutes and judgments, as the Lord my God commanded me, so that you should do so in the land where you go to possess it.
 6 Therefore keep and do them, for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, that shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
 7 For what nation is there so great, who has God so near them, as the Lord our God is in all things that we call on him for?
 8 And what nation is there so great, that has statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, that I set before you this day?
 9 Only take heed to yourselves, and keep your soul diligently, so you don't forget the things that your eyes have seen, and so they don't depart from your heart all the days of your life, but teach them to your sons, and your grandsons,
 10 Especially the day that you stood before the Lord your God in Horeb, when the Lord said to me, Gather the people together for me, and I will make them hear my words, so they will learn to fear me all the days that they live on the earth, and so they will teach their children.
 11 And you came near and stood under the mountain, and the mountain burned with fire to the middle of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
 12 And the Lord spoke to you out of the middle of the fire, you heard the voice of the words, but saw no shape, you only heard a voice.
 13 And he declared to you his covenant, that he commanded you to perform, ten commandments, and he wrote them on two tables of stone.
 14 And the Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, so that you would do them in the land where you go over to possess it.
 15 Therefore take good heed to yourselves, for you saw no kind of shape on the day that the Lord spoke to you in Horeb out of the middle of the fire,
 16 So that you don't corrupt yourselves, and make youselves a graven image, the likeness of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
 17 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flies in the air,
 18 The likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth,
 19 And so you don't lift up your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and all the host of heaven, should be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord your God has divided to all nations under the whole heaven.
 20 But the Lord has taken you, and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as you are this day.
 21 Furthermore the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that I would not go over Jordan, and that I would not go in to that good land, that the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance,
 22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan, but you'll go over, and possess that good land.
 23 Take heed to yourselves, so you don't forget the covenant of the Lord your God that he made with you, and make yourselves a graven image, or the likeness of anything, that the Lord your God has forbidden you.
 24 For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
 25 When you shall beget children, and grandchildren, and you shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of anything, and shall do evil in the sight of the Lord your God, to provoke him to anger,
 26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that you shall soon completely perish from off the land where you're going over Jordan to possess it, you shall not prolong your days on it, but shall completely be destroyed.
 27 And the Lord shall scatter you among the nations, and you shall be left few in number among the heathen, where the Lord shall lead you.
 28 And there you shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, that can neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
 29 But if from there you'll seek the Lord your God, you'll find him, if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.
 30 When you're in tribulation, and all these things have come on you, in the latter days, if you turn to the Lord your God, and shall be obedient to his voice,
 31 (For the Lord your God is a merciful God,) he will not forsake you, nor destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers that he swore to them.
 32 For ask now about the days that are past, that were before you, since the day that God created man on the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven to the other, whether there has been any such thing as this great thing is, or has been heard like it?

 33 Did people ever hear the voice of God speaking out of the middle of the fire, like you've heard, and live?
 34 Or has God assayed to go and take for himself a nation out from among another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
 35 To you it was shown, so you would know that the Lord he is God, there is no one else beside him.
 36 Out of heaven he made you to hear his voice, so he would instruct you, and on earth he showed you his great fire, and you heard his words out of the middle of the fire.
 37 And because he loved your fathers, therefore he chose their descendants after them, and brought you out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt,
 38 To drive out nations from before you greater and mightier than you are, to bring you in, to give you their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.
 39 Know therefore this day, and consider it in your heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and on the earth beneath, there is no one else.
 40 You shall therefore keep his statutes, and his commandments, that I command you this day, so that it will go well with you, and with your children after you, and so that you will prolong your days on the earth, that the Lord your God gives you, forever.
 41 Then Moses separated three cities on this side of Jordan toward the sunrising,
 42 So that the killer could flee there, who killed his neighbor unintentionally, and didn't hate him in the past, and so that fleeing to one of those cities he would live,
 43 Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites, and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites, and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.
 44 And this is the law that Moses set before the children of Israel,
 45 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel, after they came out of Egypt,
 46 On this side of Jordan, in the valley opposite Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel struck, after they had come out of Egypt,
 47 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, that were on this side of Jordan toward the sunrising,
 48 From Aroer, that is by the bank of the river Arnon, to Mount Sion, which is Hermon,
 49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, to the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah."

___Deuteronomy chapter 5
 1 And Moses called all Israel, and said to them, "Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments that I speak in your ears today, so that you'll learn them, and keep, and do them.
 2 The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
 3 The Lord didn't make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, who are all of us alive here today.
 4 The Lord talked with you face to face in the mountain out of the middle of the fire,
 5 (I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to show you the word of the Lord, for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn't go up into the mountain,) saying,
 6 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
 7 You shall have no other gods before me.
 8 You shall not make for yourselves any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters lower than the earth,
 9 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the sins of the fathers on the children up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
 10 And showing mercy to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
 11 You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
 12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, like the Lord your God has commanded you.
 13 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work,
 14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord your God, in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger that is inside your gates, so that your manservant and your maidservant can rest as well as you.
 15 And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm, therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.
 16 Honor your father and your mother, like the Lord your God has commanded you, so that your days will be prolonged, and so that it will go well with you, in the land that the Lord your God gives you.
 17 You shall not kill.
 18 Nor shall you commit adultery.
 19 Nor shall you steal.
 20 Nor shall you give false testimony against your neighbor.
 21 Nor shall you desire your neighbor's wife, nor shall you covet your neighbor's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or anything that is your neighbor's.
 22 The Lord spoke these words to all your assembly in the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a large voice, and he added no more.  And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them to me.
 23 And when you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, (for the mountain burned with fire,) you came near me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders,
 24 And you said, See, the Lord our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire, we have seen this day that God talks with man, and he lives.
 25 Now therefore why should we die?  For this great fire will consume us, if we hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore, then we shall die.
 26 For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
 27 Go near, and hear all that the Lord our God shall say, and speak to us all that the Lord our God shall speak to you, and we will hear it, and do it.
 28 And the Lord heard the voice of your words, when you spoke to me, and the Lord said to me, I have heard the voice of the words of these people, that they have spoken to you, they have well said all that they have spoken.
 29 O that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, so that it would be well with them, and with their children forever!
 30 Go and say to them, Get into your tents again.
 31 But as for you, stand here by me, and I will speak to you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, that you shall teach them, so that they can do them in the land that I give them to possess it.
 32 You shall observe to do therefore as the Lord your God has commanded you, you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
 33 You shall walk in all the ways that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you'll live, and so that it will be well with you, and so that you'll prolong your days in the land that you'll possess."

___Deuteronomy chapter 6
 1 "Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, that the Lord your God commanded to teach you, so that you'll do them in the land where you go to possess it,
 2 So that you will fear the Lord your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments that I command you, you, and your son, and your grandson, all the days of your life, and so that your days will be prolonged.
 3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it, so that it will be well with you, and so that you'll increase mightily, like the Lord God of your fathers has promised you, in the land that flows with milk and honey.
 4 Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord,
 5 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
 6 And these words, that I command you this day, shall be in your heart,
 7 And you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk about them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
 8 And you shall tie them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be like frontlets between your eyes.
 9 And you shall write them on the posts of your house, and on your gates.
 10 And it shall be, when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land that he promised to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you great and good cities, that you didn't build,
 11 And houses full of all good things, that you didn't fill, and wells dug that you didn't dig, vineyards and olive trees that you didn't plant, when you shall have eaten and are full,
 12 Then beware so you don't forget the Lord, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
 13 You shall fear the Lord your God, and serve him, and shall swear by his name.
 14 You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people that are around you,
 15 (For the Lord your God is a jealous God among you) so the anger of the Lord your God isn't kindled against you, and doesn't destroy you from off the face of the earth.
 16 You shall not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted him in Massah.
 17 You shall diligently keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, that he has commanded you.
 18 And you shall do what is right and good in the sight of the Lord, so that it will be well with you, and so that you'll go in and possess the good land that the Lord swore to your fathers,
 19 To throw out all your enemies from before you, like the Lord has said.
 20 And when your son asks you in time to come, saying, What do the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments mean, that the Lord our God has commanded you?
 21 Then you shall say to your son, We were Pharaoh's bondmen in Egypt, and the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand,
 22 And the Lord showed signs and wonders, great and severe, on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his household, before our eyes,
 23 And he brought us out from there, so that he would bring us in, to give us the land that he promised to our fathers.
 24 And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, so that he would preserve us alive, as it is this day.
 25 And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us."

___Deuteronomy chapter 7
 1 "When the Lord your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, and has thrown out many nations before you, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you,
 2 And when the Lord your God shall deliver them before you, you shall strike them, and completely destroy them, you shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them,
 3 Nor shall you make marriages with them, you shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
 4 For they will turn away your son from following me, so that they will serve other gods, so the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and destroy you suddenly.
 5 But here's how you'll deal with them, you shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their engraved images with fire.
 6 For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, the Lord your God has chosen you to be a special people to himself, above all people that are on the face of the earth.
 7 The Lord did not set his love on you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people, for you were the fewest of all people,
 8 But because the Lord loved you, and because he wanted to keep the oath that he had promised to your fathers, the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
 9 Know therefore that the Lord your God, he is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and mercy with those who love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
 10 And repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them, he will not be slack to him that hates him, he will repay him to his face.
 11 You shall therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, that I command you this day, to do them.
 12 So if you listen to these judgments, and keep and do them, the Lord your God shall keep with you the covenant and the mercy that he promised to your fathers,
 13 And he will love you, and bless you, and multiply you, he will also bless the fruit of your womb, and the fruit of your land, your corn, and your wine, and your oil, the increase of your kine, and the flocks of your sheep, in the land that he promised to your fathers to give you.
 14 You shal be blessed above all people, there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
 15 And the Lord will take away from you all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, that you know, on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
 16 And you shall consume all the people that the Lord your God shall deliver to you, your eye shall have no pity on them, nor shall you serve their gods, for that would be a trap for you.
 17 If you shall say in your heart, These nations are more than I, how can I dispossess them?
 18 You shall not be afraid of them, but shall well remember what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt,
 19 The great temptations that your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the stretched out arm, by which the Lord your God brought you out, so shall the Lord your God do to all the people of whom you are afraid.
 20 Also the Lord your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves from you, are destroyed.
 21 You shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is among you, a mighty God and terrible.
 22 And the Lord your God will put out those nations before you by little and little, you can't consume them at once, so the beasts of the field don't multiply against you.
 23 But the Lord your God shall deliver them to you, and shall destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they are destroyed.
 24 And he shall deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall destroy their name from under heaven, no man shall be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.
 25 The engraved images of their gods you shall burn with fire, you shall not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it to yourself, so you're not snared in it, for it is an abomination to the Lord your God.
 26 Nor shall you bring an abomination into your house, so you don't become a cursed thing like it, but you shall completely detest it, and you shall completely hate it, for it is a cursed thing."

___Deuteronomy chapter 8
 1 "All the commandments that I command you this day, you shall observe to do, so that you'll live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land that the Lord promised to your fathers.
 2 And you shall remember all the way that the Lord your God led you these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you, and to prove you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments, or not.
 3 And he humbled you, and allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna, that you didn't know, nor did your fathers know, so that he would make you know that man doesn't live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord does man live.
 4 Your clothes didn't grow old on you, nor did your foot swell, these forty years.
 5 You shall also consider in your heart, that, like a man spanks his son, so the Lord your God spanks you.
 6 Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
 7 For the Lord your God brings you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills,
 8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates, a land of olive oil, and honey,
 9 A land in which you shall eat bread without scarceness, you shall not lack



2 And you shall remember all the way that the Lord your God led you these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you, and to prove you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments, or not.
 3 And he humbled you, and allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna, that you didn't know, nor did your fathers know, so that he would make you know that man doesn't live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord does man live.
 4 Your clothes didn't grow old on you, nor did your foot swell, these forty years.
 5 You shall also consider in your heart, that, like a man spanks his son, so the Lord your God spanks you.
 6 Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
 7 For the Lord your God brings you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills,
 8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates, a land of olive oil, and honey,
 9 A land in which you shall eat bread without scarceness, you shall not lack anything in it, a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you can dig brass.
 10 When you've eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land that he has given you.
 11 Beware that you don't forget the Lord your God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, that I command you this day,
 12 So that when you've eaten and are full, and have built good houses, and lived in them,
 13 And when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold has multiplied, and all that you have has multiplied,
 14 Then your heart won't be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage,
 15 Who led you through that great and terrible wilderness, in which were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water, who brought water out of the rock of flint for you,
 16 Who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers didn't know, so that he could humble you, and so that he could test you, to do you good at your end,
 17 And you don't say in your heart, My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.
 18 But you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he that gives you power to get wealth, so he can establish his covenant that he promised to your fathers, as it is this day.
 19 And it shall be, if you at all forget the Lord your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that you'll surely perish.
 20 Like the nations that the Lord destroys before your face, so you'll perish, because you wouldn't be obedient to the voice of the Lord your God."

___Deuteronomy chapter 9
 1 "Hear, O Israel, You are to pass over Jordan this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than yourself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,
 2 A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom you know, and about whom you've heard, Who can stand before the children of Anak!
 3 Understand therefore this day, that the Lord your God is he that goes over before you, like a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before your face, so shall you drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the Lord has said to you.
 4 Don't speak in your heart, after the Lord your God has cast them out from before you, saying, For my righteousness the Lord has brought me in to possess this land, but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord drives them out from before you.
 5 Not for your righteousness, or for the uprightness of your heart, do you go to possess their land, but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord your God drives them out from before you, and so that he can perform the word that the Lord promised to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
 6 Understand therefore, that the Lord your God doesn't give you this good land to possess it for your righteousness, for you are a stiffnecked people.
 7 Remember, and don't forget, how you provoked the Lord your God to anger in the wilderness, from the day that you departed out of the land of Egypt, until you came to this place, you've been rebellious against the Lord.
 8 Also in Horeb you provoked the Lord to anger, so that the Lord was angry with you and came close to destroying you.
 9 When I had gone up into the mountain to receive the stone tablets, the tablets of the covenant that the Lord made with you, then I stayed in the mountain forty days and forty nights, I didn't eat bread nor drank water,
 10 And the Lord delivered to me two tablets of stone written by the finger of God, and on them was written according to all the words that the Lord spoke with you in the mountain out of the fire in the day of the assembly.
 11 And at the end of forty days and forty nights, the Lord gave me the two tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant.
 12 And the Lord said to me, Get up, get down quickly from here, for your people that you've brought out of Egypt have corrupted themselves, they've quickly turned aside out of the way that I commanded them, they have made them a metal image cast in the foundry.
 13 Furthermore the Lord spoke to me, saying, I have seen these people, and see, they are a stiffnecked people,
 14 Let me alone, so I can destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven, and I will make out of you a nation mightier and greater than them.
 15 So I turned and came down from the mountain, and the mountain burned with fire, and the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands.
 16 And I looked, and see, you had sinned against the Lord your God, and had made for yourselves a cast in foundry metal calf, you had turned aside quickly out of the way that the Lord had commanded you.
 17 And I took the two tables, and threw them out of my two hands, and broke them before your eyes.
 18 And I fell down before the Lord, like at the first, forty days and forty nights, I neither ate bread, nor drank water, because of all your sins that you sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
 19 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, with which the Lord was angry against you to destroy you.  But the Lord listened to me at that time also.
 20 And the Lord was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him, and I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
 21 And I took your sin, the calf that you had made, and burnt it with fire, and stomped on it, and ground it very small, until it was as small as dust, and I threw the dust of it into the brook that descended out of the mountain.
 22 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, you provoked the Lord to anger.
 23 Likewise when the Lord sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying, Go up and possess the land that I've given you, then you rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God, and you didn't believe him, and didn't listen to his voice.
 24 You've been rebellious against the Lord from the day that I knew you.
 25 Thus I fell down before the Lord forty days and forty nights, like I fell down at the first, because the Lord had said he would destroy you.
 26 I prayed therefore to the Lord, and said, O Lord God, don't destroy your people and your inheritance, that you've redeemed through your greatness, that you've brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
 27 Remember your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, don't look at the stubbornness of these people, nor at their wickedness, nor at their sin,
 28 So that the land that you brought us out of doesn't say, Because the Lord was not able to bring them into the land that he promised them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.
 29 Yet they are your people and your inheritance, that you brought out by your mighty power and by your stretched out arm."

___Deuteronomy chapter 10
 1 "At that time the Lord said to me, Cut for yourself two tables of stone like the first, and come up to me into the mountain, and make for yourself an ark of wood.
 2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables that you broke, and you shall put them in the ark.
 3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and cut two tables of stone like the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand.
 4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, that the Lord spoke to you in the mountain out of the fire in the day of the assembly, and the Lord gave them to me.
 5 And I turned around and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark that I had made, and there they are, like the Lord commanded me.
 6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera, there Aaron died, and there he was buried, and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office instead of him.
 7 From there, they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
 8 At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister to him, and to bless in his name, until this day.
 9 So Levi has no part nor inheritance with his brothers, the Lord is his inheritance, as the Lord your God promised him.
 10 And I stayed in the mountain, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights, and the Lord listened to me at that time also, and the Lord wouldn't destroy you.
 11 And the Lord said to me, Get up, take your journey before the people, so that they will go in and possess the land that I promised to their fathers to give to them.
 12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require from you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord your God with all the heart and with all the soul,
 13 To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, that I command you this day for your good?
 14 See, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's your God, the earth also, with all that is in it.
 15 Only the Lord took delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their descendants after them, you above all people, as it is this day.
 16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and don't be stubborn any longer.
 17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, who doesn't regard persons, and doesn't take bribes,
 18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the stranger, in giving him food and clothes.
 19 Therefore love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
 20 You shall fear the Lord your God, him shall you serve, and you shall stick to him, and swear by his name.
 21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and terrible things that your eyes have seen.
 22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons, and now the Lord your God has made you like the stars of heaven for multitude."

___Deuteronomy chapter 11
 1 "Therefore you shall love the Lord your God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always.
 2 And know this day, for I speak not with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the Lord your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
 3 And his miracles, and his acts that he did in Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land,
 4 And what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots, how he made the water of the Red sea overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the Lord has destroyed them until this day,
 5 And what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came into this place,
 6 And what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, among all of Israel,
 7 But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the Lord that he did.
 8 Therefore you shall keep all the commandments that I command you this day, so that you'll be strong, and go in and possess the land, where you go to possess it,
 9 And so that you'll prolong your days in the land that the Lord promised to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land that flows with milk and honey.
 10 For the land, where you go in to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt, that you came out of, where thou planted your seed, and watered it with your foot, like a garden of herbs,
 11 But the land, where you go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water from the rain of heaven,
 12 A land that the Lord your God cares for, the eyes of the Lord your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year until the end of the year.
 13 And if you listen diligently to my commandments that I command you today, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
 14 I will give you the rain of your land in due season, the first rain and the latter rain, so that you can gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.
 15 And I will send grass in your fields for your cattle, so that you can eat and be full.
 16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart isn't deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them,
 17 And then the Lord's anger is kindled against you, and he shuts up the heaven, so that there's no rain, and so that the land doesn't yield its fruit, and so you don't perish quickly from off the good land that the Lord gives you.
 18 Therefore you shall store these words that I speak in your heart and in your soul, and tie them for a sign on your hand, so they'll be like frontlets between your eyes.
 19 And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
 20 And you shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates,
 21 So that your days will be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land that the Lord promised to your fathers to give them, like the days of heaven on the earth.
 22 For if you'll diligently keep all these commandments that I command you, to do them, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to stick to him,
 23 Then the Lord will drive out all these nations from before you, and you'll possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
 24 Every place on which the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours, from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the farthest sea shall your coast be.
 25 No man shall be able to stand before you, for the Lord your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you tread on, as he has said to you.
 26 See, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse,
 27 A blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, that I command you this day,
 28 And a curse, if you won't obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of the way that I command you today, to go after other gods, that you haven't known.
 29 And when the Lord your God has brought you into the land where you go to possess it, you shall put the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
 30 Aren't they on the other side Jordan, by the way where the sun goes down, in the land of the Canaanites, who live in the champaign over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh?
 31 For you'll pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land that the Lord your God gives you, and you'll possess it, and live in it.
 32 And you shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments that I set before you today."

___Deuteronomy chapter 12
 1 "These are the statutes and judgments, that you shall observe to do in the land that the Lord God of your fathers gives you to possess, all the days that you live on the earth.
 2 You shall utterly destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall possess served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree,
 3 And you shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire, and you shall cut down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
 4 You shall not do so to the Lord your God.
 5 But you shall seek to the place that the Lord your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even to his habitation, and there you shall come,
 6 And there you shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings from your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks,
 7 And you shall eat before the Lord your God there, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which the Lord your God has blessed you.
 8 You shall not do according to all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes.
 9 For you haven't yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, that the Lord your God gives you.
 10 But when you go over Jordan, and live in the land that the Lord your God gives you to inherit, and when he gives you rest from all your enemies all around, so that you live in safety,
 11 Then there shall be a place that the Lord your God shall choose to cause his name to live there, and there you shall bring all that I command you, your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows that you vow to the Lord,
 12 And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that is inside your gates, since he has no part nor inheritance with you.
 13 Take heed to yourself that you don't offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see,
 14 But in the place that the Lord shall choose in one of your tribes, you shall offer your burnt offerings there, and there you shall do all that I command you.
 15 But you can kill and eat flesh in all your gates, whatever your soul lusts for, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you, the unclean and the clean may eat of it, like of the roebuck, and of the hart.
 16 Only you shall not eat the blood, you shall pour it on the ground like water.
 17 You may not eat inside your gates the tithe of your corn, or of your wine, or of your oil, or the firstlings of your herds or of your flock, nor any of your vows that you vow, nor your freewill offerings, or heave offering of your hand,
 18 But you must eat them before the Lord your God in the place that the Lord your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that is inside your gates, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God in all that you put your hands to.
 19 Take heed to yourself that you don't forsake the Levite as long as you live on the earth.
 20 When the Lord your God shall enlarge your border, as he has promised you, and you say, I will eat flesh, because your soul longs to eat flesh, you can eat flesh, whatever your soul lusts for.
 21 If the place that the Lord your God has chosen to put his name there is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which the Lord has given you, as I have commanded you, and you shall eat in your gates whatever your soul lusts for.
 22 Like the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so you shall eat them, the unclean and the clean alike shall eat of them.
 23 Only be sure that you don't eat the blood, for the blood is the life, and you may not eat the life with the flesh.
 24 You shall not eat it, you shall pour it on the earth like water.
 25 You shall not eat it, so it will go well with you, and with your children after you, when you do what is right in the sight of the Lord.
 26 Only your holy things that you have, and your vows, 
you shall take, and go to the place that the Lord shall choose,
 27 And you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of the Lord your God, and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of the Lord your God, and you shall eat the flesh.
 28 Observe and hear all these words that I command you, so it will go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when thou do what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.
 29 When the Lord your God shall cut off the nations from before you, where you go to possess them, and you replace them, and live in their land,
 30 Watch yourself so you're not snared by following them, after they are destroyed from before you, and so you don't inquire after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods?  I will do likewise.
 31 You shall not do so to the Lord your God, for they have done to their gods everything that is dirty to the Lord, that he hates, for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.
 32 Whatever things I command you, observe to do them, you shall not add to them, nor take away from them."

___Deuteronomy chapter 13
 1 "If a prophet arises among you, or a dreamer of dreams, and gives you a sign or a wonder,
 2 And the sign or the wonder occurs, about which he spoke to you, saying, Let us go after other gods, which you've not known, and let us serve them,
 3 You shall not listen to the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
 4 You shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and you shall serve him, and stick to him.
 5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death, because he has spoken to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to put you out of the way that the Lord your God commanded you to walk in.  So you shall put the evil away from among you.
 6 If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend, who is like your own soul, entices you secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, that you haven't known, you, nor your fathers,
 7 Namely, of the gods of the people that are around you, near you, or far off from you, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth,
 8 You shall not agree with him, nor listen to him, nor shall your eye pity him, nor shall you spare, nor shall you conceal him,
 9 But you shall surely kill him, your hand shall be first on him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
 10 And you shall stone him with stones, so that he dies, because he has sought to push you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
 11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is among you.
 12 If you shall hear that in one of your cities, that the Lord your God has given you to live there, saying,
 13 Certain men, the children of Belial, have gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, that you haven't known,
 14 Then you shall inquire, and make search, and ask diligently, and see, if it's true, and the thing is certain, that such abomination has been done among you,
 15 You shall surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it completely, and all that is in it, and the cattle of it, with the edge of the sword.
 16 And you shall gather all the spoil of it into the middle of the street of it, and shall burn the city with fire, and all the spoil of it, every bit, for the Lord your God, and it shall be a heap forever, it shall not be built again.
 17 And nothing of the cursed thing shall stick to your hand, so that the Lord will turn from the fierceness of his anger, and show you mercy, and have compassion on you, and multiply you, as he has sworn to your fathers,
 18 When you shall listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep all his commandments that I command you this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the Lord your God."

___Deuteronomy chapter 14
 1 "You are the children of the Lord your God, you shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
 2 For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a peculiar people to himself, above all the nations that are on the earth.
 3 You shall not eat any dirty thing.
 4 These are the animals that you shall eat, the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
 5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
 6 And every beast that has a split hoof, and divides the cleft into two claws, and chews the cud among the beasts, you shall eat that.
 7 But these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those that divide the split hoof, like the camel, and the hare, and the coney, for they chew the cud, but don't divide the hoof, therefore they are unclean to you.
 8 And the swine, because it divides the hoof, yet doesn't chew the cud, it is unclean to you, you shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
 9 These you shall eat of all that are in the waters, all that have fins and scales you shall eat,
 10 And whatever doesn't have fins and scales you may not eat, it is unclean to you.
 11 Of all clean birds you shall eat.
 12 But these are those of which you shall not eat, the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
 13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after its kind,
 14 And every raven after his kind,
 15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after its kind,
 16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
 17 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
 18 And the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
 19 And every creeping thing that flies is unclean to you, they shall not be eaten.
 20 But of all clean fowls you may eat.
 21 You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself, you shall give it to the stranger that is in your gates, so he can eat it, or you can sell it to an alien, for you are a holy people to the Lord your God.  You shall not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.
 22 You shall truly tithe all the increase of your seed, that the field produces year by year.
 23 And you shalt eat before the Lord your God, in the place that he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of your corn, of your wine, and of your oil, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks, so that you will learn to fear the Lord your God always.
 24 And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it, or if the place is too far from you, which the Lord your God shall choose to set his name there, when the Lord your God has blessed you,
 25 Then you shall turn it into money, and tie up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place that the Lord your God shall choose,
 26 And you shall pay that money for whatever your soul lusts for, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul desires, and you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice, you, and your household,
 27 And the Levite that is within your gates, you shall not forsake him, for he has no part nor inheritance with you.
 28 At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your increase the same year, and shall store it up inside your gates,
 29 And the Levite, (because he has no part nor inheritance with you,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied, so that the Lord your God will bless you in all the work of your hand that you do."

___Deuteronomy chapter 15
 1 "At the end of every seven years you shall make a release.
 2 And this is the manner of the release, every creditor that lends anything to his neighbor shall release it, he shall not require it from his neighbor, or from his brother, because it is called the Lord's release.
 3 From a foreigner, you can require it again, but that which is yours with your brother your hand shall release,
 4 Except when there shall be no poor among you, for the Lord shall greatly bless you in the land that the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it,
 5 Only if you carefully listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to observe to do all these commandments that I command you this day.
 6 For the Lord your God blesses you, as he promised you, and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow, and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you.
 7 If there is a poor man among you of one of your brothers within any of your gates in your land that the Lord your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother,
 8 But you shall open your hand wide to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wants.
 9 Beware that there's not a thought in your wicked heart, saying, "The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand," and your eye be evil against your poor brother, and you give him nothing, and he cries to the Lord against you, and it be sin to you.
 10 You shall surely give him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the Lord your God shall bless you in all your works, and in all that you put your hand to.
 11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land, therefore I command you, saying, You shall open your hand wide to your brother, to your poor, and to your needy, in your land.
 12 And if your brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you, and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you shalt let him go free from you.
 13 And when you send him out free from you, you shall not let him go away empty,
 14 You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, and out of your field, and out of your winepress, of that with which the Lord your God has blessed you, you shall give to him.
 15 And you shall remember that you were a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God redeemed you, therefore I command you this thing today.
 16 And it shall be, if he says to you, I will not go away from you, because he loves you and your house, because he is well off with you,
 17 Then you shall take an aul, and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall be your servant forever.  And also to your maidservant you shall do likewise.
 18 It shall not seem hard to you, when you send him away free from you, for he has been worth a double hired servant to you, in serving you six years, and the Lord your God shall bless you in all that thou do.
 19 All the firstling males that come from your herd and from your flock, you shall sanctify to the Lord your God, you shall do no work with the firstling of your bullock, nor shear the firstling of your sheep.
 20 You shall eat it before the Lord your God year by year in the place that the Lord shall choose, you and your household.
 21 And if there's any blemish in it, like if it is lame, or blind, or has any ill blemish, you shall not sacrifice it to the Lord your God.
 22 You shall eat it inside your gates, the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, like the roebuck, and like the hart.
 23 Only you shall not eat the blood of it, you shall pour it on the ground like water."

___Deuteronomy chapter 16
 1 "Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover to the Lord your God, for in the month of Abib the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night.
 2 You shall therefore sacrifice the passover to the Lord your God, from the flock and the herd, in the place that the Lord shall choose to place his name there.
 3 You shall eat no leavened bread with it, seven days shall you eat unleavened bread with it, the bread of affliction, for you came out of the land of Egypt in haste, so that you will remember the day when you came out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.
 4 And no leavened bread shall be seen with you in all your coast seven days, nor shall anything of the flesh, that you sacrificed the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.
 5 You may not sacrifice the passover inside any of your gates that the Lord your God gives you,
 6 But at the place which the Lord your God shall choose to place his name in, there you shall sacrifice the passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you came out of Egypt.
 7 And you shall roast and eat it in the place that the Lord your  God shall choose, and you shall turn in the morning, and go to your tents.
 8 Six days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to the Lord your God, you shall do no work in it.
 9 Seven weeks you shall number to yourselves, begin to number the seven weeks from the time that you begin to put the sickle to the corn.
 10 And you shall keep the feast of weeks to the Lord your God with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, that you shall give to the Lord your God, according as the Lord your God has blessed you,
 11 And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that is within your gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow that are among you, in the place which the Lord your God has chosen to place his name there.
 12 And you shall remember that you were a bondman in Egypt, and you shall observe and do these statutes.
 13 You shall observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after you've gathered in your corn and your wine,
 14 And you shall rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within your gates.
 15 You shall keep a solemn feast to the Lord your God seven days in the place that the Lord shall choose, because the Lord your God shall bless you in all your increase, and in all the works of your hands, therefore you shall surely rejoice.
 16 All your males shall appear three times a year before the Lord your God in the place that he shall choose, in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles, and they shall not appear before the Lord empty,
 17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.
 18 You shall make judges and officers for yourselves in all your gates, that the Lord your God gives you, throughout your tribes, and they shall judge the people with fair judgment.
 19 You shall not pervert judgment, you shall not respect persons, nor take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous.
 20 That which is completely fair you shall follow, so that you'll live, and inherit the land that the Lord your God gives you.
 21 You shall not plant a grove of any trees for yourself near the altar of the Lord your God, that you shall make for yourselves.
 22 Nor shall you set up any image, that the Lord your God hates."

___Deuteronomy chapter 17
 1 "You shall not sacrifice to the Lord your God any bullock, or sheep, in which is a blemish, or any bad part, for that is a dirty thing to the Lord your God.
 2 If there is found among you, within any of your gates that the Lord your God gives you, man or woman, that has done wickedness in the sight of the Lord your God, in transgressing his covenant,
 3 And has gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, that I have not commanded,
 4 And it is told to you, and you've heard of it, and inquired diligently, and see, it is true, and the thing certain, that such abomination has been done in Israel,
 5 Then you shall bring forth that man or that woman, who has committed that wicked thing, to your gates, even that man or that woman, and shall stone them with stones, until they die.
 6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death, but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
 7 The hands of the witnesses shall be first on him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people.  So you shall put the evil away from among you.
 8 If a matter arises too hard for you in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within your gates, then you shall arise, and get up into the place that the Lord your God shall choose,
 9 And you shall come to the priests the Levites, and to the judge that shall be in those days, and inquire, and they shall show you the sentence of judgment,
 10 And you shall do according to the sentence, which those of that place which the Lord shall choose shall show you, and you shall observe to do according to all that they inform you,
 11 According to the sentence of the law that they shall teach you, and you shall do according to the judgment that they shall tell you, you shall not decline from the sentence that they shall show you, to the right hand, nor to the left.
 12 And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not listen to the priest that stands to minister there before the Lord your God, or to the judge, that man shall die, and you shall put away the evil from Israel.
 13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
 14 When you've come to the land that the Lord your God gives you, and shall possess it, and shall live in it, and shall say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are around me,
 15 You shall be careful to set him king over you, whom the Lord your God shall choose, one from among your brothers shall you set king over you, you may not set a stranger over you, who is not your brother.
 16 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses, since the Lord has said to you, from now on, you shall return no more that way.
 17 Nor shall he multiply wives to himself, so that his heart doesn't turn away, nor shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
 18 And it shall be, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites,
 19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read in it all the days of his life, so that he will learn to fear the Lord his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them,
 20 So that his heart is not lifted up above his brothers, and so that he doesn't turn aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left, so that he will prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, among Israel."

___Deuteronomy chapter 18
 1 "The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel, they shall eat the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and his inheritance.
 2 Therefore they shall have no inheritance among their brothers, the Lord is their inheritance, as he has said to them.
 3 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it is ox or sheep, and they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
 4 The firstfruit also of your corn, of your wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, you shall give him.
 5 For the Lord your God has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the Lord, him and his sons forever.
 6 And if a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he was staying, and comes with all the desire of his mind to the place that the Lord shall choose,
 7 Then he shall minister in the name of the Lord his God, like all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before the Lord.
 8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which comes from the sale of his patrimony.
 9 When you've come into the land that the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
 10 There shall not be found among you anyone that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that uses divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,
 11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
 12 For all that do these things are an abomination to the Lord, and because of these abominations the Lord your God drives them out from before you.
 13 You shall be perfect with the Lord your God.
 14 For these nations, that you shall possess, listened to observers of times, and to diviners, but as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do so.
 15 The Lord your God will raise up to you a Prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me, you shall listen to him,
 16 According to all that you desired from the Lord your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, "Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, nor let me see this great fire anymore, so I don't die."
 17 And the Lord said to me, "They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
 18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like you, and will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
 19 And it shall occur, that whoever will not listen to my words that he shall speak in my name, I will require it from him.
 20 But the prophet who shall presume to speak a word in my name, that I haven't commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
 21 And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word that the Lord hasn't spoken?
 22 When a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thing doesn't follow, nor occurs, that is the thing that the Lord has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously, you shall not be afraid of him."

___Deuteronomy chapter 19
 1 "When the Lord your God has cut off the nations, whose land the Lord your God gives you, and you replace them, and live in their cities, and in their houses,
 2 You shall separate three cities for yourselves in the middle of your land that the Lord your God gives you to possess it.
 3 You shall prepare a way, and divide the coasts of your land that the Lord your God gives you to inherit, into three parts, so that every slayer can flee there.
 4 And this is the case of the slayer, who shall flee there, so that he can live, Whoever kills his neighbor ignorantly, whom he didn't hate in the past,
 5 Like when a man goes into the woods with his neighbor to cut wood, and his hand makes a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slips from the helve, and lands on his neighbor, so that he dies, he shall flee to one of those cities, and live,
 6 So that the avenger of the blood doesn't pursue the slayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and kill him, because he was not worthy of death, since he didn't hate him previously.
 7 So I command you, saying, "You shall separate three cities for yourselves.
 8 And if the Lord your God enlarges your coast, as he has sworn to your fathers, and gives you all the land that he promised to give to your fathers,
 9 If you'll keep all these commandments to do them, that I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to walk always in his ways, then you shall add three cities more for yourselves, beside these three,
 10 So that innocent blood is not shed in your land that the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance, and so blood be on you.
 11 But if any man hates his neighbor, and lies in wait for him, and rises up against him, and smites him mortally so that he dies, and flees into one of these cities,
 12 Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him from there, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, so that he'll die.
 13 Your eye shall not pity him, but you shall put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel, so that it will go well with you.
 14 You shall not remove your neighbor's landmark, that those of old time have set in your inheritance, that you shall inherit in the land that the Lord your God gives you to possess it.
 15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins, at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
 16 If a false witness rises up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong,
 17 Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges, that shall be in those days,
 18 And the judges shall make diligent inquisition, and see, if the witness is a false witness, and has testified falsely against his brother,
 19 Then you shall do to him like he had thought to have done to his brother, so you shall put the evil away from among you.
 20 And those who remain shall hear, and fear, and shall from then on commit no more any such evil among you.
 21 And your eye shall not pity, but life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot."

 1 "When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses, and chariots, and a people more than you, don't be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is with you, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
 2 And it shall be, when you've come near the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak to the people,
 3 And shall say to them, Hear, O Israel, you approach this day to battle against your enemies, don't let your hearts faint, don't be afraid, and do not tremble, and don't be terrified because of them,
 4 For the Lord your God is he that goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
 5 And the officers shall speak to the people, saying, What man is there that has built a new house, and has not dedicated it?  Let him go and return to his house, so he doesn't die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.
 6 And what man is he that has planted a vineyard, and has not yet eaten of it?  Let him also go and return to his house, so he doesn't die in the battle, and another man eat of it.
 7 And what man is there that has betrothed a wife, and has not taken her?  Let him go and return to his house, so he doesn't die in the battle, and another man take her.
 8 And the officers shall speak further to the people, and they shall say, What man is there that is fearful and fainthearted?  Let him go and return to his house, so his brothers' hearts don't faint like his heart.
 9 And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking to the people, that they shall make captains of the armies to lead the people.
 10 When you come near a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace to it.
 11 And it shall be, if it gives you an answer of peace, and opens to you, then it shall be, that all the people that are found in it shall be tributaries to you, and they shall serve you.
 12 And if it will make no peace with you, but will make war against you, then you shall lay seige against it,
 13 And when the Lord your God has delivered it into your hands, you shall smite every male of it with the edge of the sword,
 14 But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, all the spoil of it, you shall take to yourself, and you shall eat the spoil of your enemies, that the Lord your God has given you.
 15 Thus shall you do to all the cities that are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.
 16 But of the cities of these people, that the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance, you shall save nothing alive that breathes,
 17 But you shall completely destroy them, namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, as the Lord your God has commanded you,
 18 So that they don't teach you to do after all their abominations, that they've done to their gods, so you would sin against the Lord your God.
 19 When thou besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, you shall not destroy the trees of it by forcing an axe against them, for you can eat from them, and you shall not cut them down (for the tree of the field is man's life) to employ them in the siege,
 20 Only the trees that you know are not trees for food, you shall destroy and cut them down, and you shall build bulwarks against the city that makes war with you, until it's subdued."

 1 "If someone is found slain in the land that the Lord your God gives you to possess it, lying in the field, and it is not known who has killed him,
 2 Then your elders and your judges shall come out, and they shall measure to the cities that are around him that has been killed,
 3 And it shall be, that the city that is next to the slain man, the elders of that city shall take a heifer, that hasn't been worked with, and that hasn't pulled in the yoke,
 4 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer to a rough valley, that is neither eared nor planted, and shall strike off the heifer's neck there in the valley,
 5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near, for the Lord your God has chosen them to minister to him, and to bless in the name of the Lord, and by their word shall every controversy and every stroke be tried,
 6 And all the elders of that city, that are next to the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer that has been beheaded in the valley,
 7 And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, nor have our eyes seen it.
 8 Be merciful, O Lord, to your people Israel, whom you've redeemed, and don't lay innocent blood to the charge of your people of Israel.  And the blood shall be forgiven them.
 9 So shall you put away the guilt of innocent blood from among you, when you shall do that which is right in the sight of the Lord.
 10 When you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord your God has delivered them into your hands, and you've taken them captive,
 11 And see among the captives a beautiful woman, and have a desire toward her, so that you would have her as your wife,
 12 Then you shall bring her home to your house, and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails,
 13 And she shall put the clothes of her captivity off of her, and shall remain in your house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month, and after that you shal go in to her, and be her husband, and she shall be your wife.
 14 And it shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall let her go where she wants, but you shall not sell her at all for money, you shall not make merchandise of her, because you've humbled her.
 15 If a man has two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated, and if the firstborn son is hers that was hated,
 16 Then it shall be, when he makes his sons to inherit that which he has, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, who is indeed the firstborn,
 17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated as the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength, the right of the firstborn is his.
 18 If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, won't listen to them,
 19 Then his father and his mother shall take hold of him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place,
 20 And they shall say to the elders of his city, This, our son, is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice, he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
 21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, so that he dies, so shall you put evil away from among you, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
 22 And if a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he is to be put to death, and you hang him on a tree,
 23 His body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall bury him that day, (for he that has been hanged is accursed by God,) so that your land is not defiled that the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance."

 3 In like manner shall you do with his ass, and so shall you do with his clothes, and with all lost things of your brother's, that he has lost, and you've found, shall you do likewise, you may not hide yourself.
 4 You shall not see your brother's ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide yourself from them, you shall help him to lift them up again.
 5 The woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman's garment, for all that do so are detestable to the Lord your God.
 6 If a bird's nest happens to be before you on the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they are young ones, or eggs, and the adult sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the adult with the young,

 14 And gives occasions of speech against her, and brings up an evil name on her, and says, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found that she was not a virgin,
 15 Then the father of the damsel, and her mother, shall take and bring out the tokens of the damsel's virginity to the elders of the city in the gate,
 16 And the damsel's father shall say to the elders, I gave my daughter to this man as wife, and he hates her,
 17 And see, he has given occasions of speech against her, saying, "I found your daughter not a virgin, and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity.  And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
 18 And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him,
 19 And they shall fine him in a hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the damsel, because he has brought up an evil name on a virgin of Israel, and she shall be his wife, he may not put her away all his days.
 20 But if this thing is true, and the tokens of virginity are not found for the damsel,
 21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones so that she dies, because she has done foolishness in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house, so you shall put evil away from among you.
 22 If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman, so shall you put away evil from Israel.

 24 Then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them with stones so that they die, the damsel, because she didn't scream, being in the city, and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor's wife, so you shall put away evil from among you.
 25 But if a man finds an engaged damsel in the field, and the man forces her, and lies with her, then the man only that lay with her shall die,
 26 But to the damsel you shall do nothing, there no sin worthy of death in the damsel, for as when a man rises against his neighbor, and kills him, even so is this matter,
 27 For he found her in the field, and the engaged damsel screamed, and there was no one to save her.
 28 If a man finds a damsel that is a virgin, who is not engaged, and lays hold on her, and lies with her, and they are found,
 29 Then the man that lay with her shall give to the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.

 7 And when we cried to the Lord God of our fathers, the Lord heard our voice, and looked at our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression,
 8 And the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders,
 9 And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land that flows with milk and honey.
 10 And now, see, I have brought the firstfruits of the land, which you, O Lord, have given me.  And you shall set it before the Lord your God, and worship before the Lord your God,

 12 When you've made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, so that they can eat within your gates, and be filled,
 13 Then you shall say before the Lord your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandments that you've commanded me, I haven't transgressed your commandments, nor have I forgotten them,
 14 I have not eaten of it in my mourning, nor have I taken away anything of it for any unclean use, nor given anything of it for the dead, but I have listened to the voice of the Lord my God, and have done according to all that you've commanded me.

 49 The Lord shall bring a nation against you from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you won't understand,
 50 A nation of fierce facial expression, that won't regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,
 51 And he shall eat the fruit of your cattle, and the fruit of your land, until you're destroyed, who also won't leave you either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of your kine, or flocks of your sheep, until he has destroyed you.
 52 And he shall besiege you in all your gates, until your high and fenced walls come down, in which you trusted, throughout all your land, and he shall besiege you in all your gates throughout all your land, that the Lord your God has given you.
 53 And you'll eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters, that the Lord your God has given you, in the siege, and in the restriction, with which your enemies shall distress you,
 54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remainder of his children that he shall leave,
 55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he has nothing left him in the siege, and in the restriction, with which your enemies shall distress you in all your gates.
 56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who wouldn't adventure to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,
 57 And toward her young one that comes out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear, for she shall eat them for lack of all things secretly in the siege and restriction with which your enemy shall distress you in your gates.
 58 If you won't observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, so that you'll fear this glorious and fearful name, The Lord Your God,
 59 Then the Lord will make your plagues wonderful, and the plagues of your descendants, big plagues, and of long continuance, and severe sicknesses, and of long continuance.
 60 Also he will bring on you all the diseases of Egypt, that you were afraid of, and they shall stick to you.
 61 Also every sickness, and every plague, that is not written in the book of this law, the Lord will bring those on you, until you're destroyed.
 62 And you'll be left few in number, although you were like the stars of heaven for multitude, because you wouldn't obey the voice of the Lord your God.
 63 And it shall occur, that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nothing, and you'll be plucked from off the land where you go to possess it.
 64 And the Lord shall scatter you among all people, from the one end of the earth to the other, and you'll serve other gods there, that neither you nor your fathers have known, wood and stone.
 65 And among these nations you'll find no rest, nor shall the sole of your foot have rest, but the Lord shall give you there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind,
 66 And your life shall hang in doubt before you, and you'll be afraid day and night, and shall have no assurance of your life,
 67 In the morning you'll say, Would God it were evening!  And at evening you'll say, Would God it were morning!  For the fear of your heart with which you'll fear, and for the sight of your eyes that you'll see.
 68 And the Lord shall bring you into Egypt again by ships, by the way by which I spoke to you, You shalt see it again no more, and there you'll be sold to your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you."

___Deuteronomy chapter 29
 1 These are the words of the covenant, that the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the covenant that he made with them in Horeb.
 2 And Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, "You've seen all that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
 3 The great temptations that your eyes have seen, the signs, and those great miracles,
 4 Yet the Lord hasn't given you a heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
 5 And I've led you forty years in the wilderness, your clothes have not grown old on you, and your shoes haven't grown old on your feet.
 6 You haven't eaten bread, nor have you drunk wine or strong drink, so that you would know that I am the Lord your God.
 7 And when you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us to battle, and we struck them,
 8 And we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to half the tribe of Manasseh.
 9 Therefore keep the words of this covenant, and do them, so you'll prosper in all that you do.
 10 You stand this day, all of you, before the Lord your God, your captains of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, with all the men of Israel,
 11 Your little ones, your wives, and your stranger that is in your camp, from the cutter of your wood to the drawer of your water,
 12 So that you would enter into covenant with the Lord your God, and into his oath, that the Lord your God makes with you this day,
 13 So that he will establish you today for a people for himself, and so that he will be to you a God, as he has said to you, and as he has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
 14 And not with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,
 15 But with him that stands here with us this day before the Lord our God, and also with him that is not here with us this day,
 16 (For you know how we have lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the nations that you passed by,
 17 And you've seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, that were among them,)
 18 So there won't be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turns away this day from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations, so there won't be among you a root that produces gall and wormwood,
 19 And it happens, when he hears the words of this curse, that he blesses himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of my heart, to add drunkenness to thirst,
 20 The Lord will not spare him, but then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie on him, and the Lord shall blot out his name from under heaven.
 21 And the Lord shall separate him for evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law,
 22 So that the generation to come of your children that shall rise up after you, and the stranger that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses that the Lord has laid on it,
 23 And that the whole land of it is sulphur, and salt, and burning, that it is not planted, nor yields fruit, nor does any grass grow in it, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, that the Lord overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath,
 24 All nations shall say, Why has the Lord done this to this land?  What does the heat of this great anger mean?
 25 Then men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord God of their fathers, that he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt,
 26 For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they didn't know, and whom he had not given to them,
 27 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring on it all the curses that are written in this book,
 28 And the Lord uprooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and threw them into another land, as it is this day.
 29 The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, so that we can do all the words of this law."

___Deuteronomy chapter 30
 1 "And it shall occur, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, that I've set before you, and you shall remember them among all the nations, where the Lord your God has driven you,
 2 And shall return to the Lord your God, and shall obey his voice according to all that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart, and with all you soul,
 3 That then the Lord your God will undo your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the nations, where the Lord your God has scattered you.
 4 If any of yours have been driven out to the uttermost parts of heaven, from there the Lord your God will gather you, and from there he will fetch you,
 5 And the Lord your God will bring you into the land that your fathers possessed, and you'll possess it, and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
 6 And the Lord your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your descendants, to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, so that you'll live.
 7 And the Lord your God will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
 8 And you'll return and obey the voice of the Lord, and do all his commandments that I command you this day.
 9 And the Lord your God will make you plenteous in every work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your cattle, and in the fruit of your land, for good, for the Lord will again rejoice over you for good, like he rejoiced over your fathers,
 10 If you'll listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes that are written in this book of the law, and if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
 11 For this commandment that I command you this day, is not hidden from you, nor is it far off.
 12 It is not in heaven, so that you should say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it to us, so that we can hear it, and do it?
 13 Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you should say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, so we can hear it, and do it?
 14 But the word is very near you, in your mouth, and in your heart, so that you can do it.
 15 See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil,
 16 In that I command you this day to love the Lord your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, so that you can live and multiply, and the Lord your God shall bless you in the land where you go to possess it.
 17 But if your heart turns away, so that you won't hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them,
 18 I denounce to you this day, that you'll surely perish, and that you won't prolong your days on the land, that you pass over Jordan to go to possess it.
 19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing, therefore choose life, so that both you and your descendants will live,
 20 So that you will love the Lord your God, and so that you'll obey his voice, and so you'll stick to him, for he is your life, and the length of your days, so that you'll live in the land that the Lord promised to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them."

___Deuteronomy chapter 31
 1 And Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel.
 2 And he said to them, "I am one hundred twenty years old this day, I can no more go out and come in, also the Lord has said to me, You shall not go over this Jordan.
 3 The Lord your God, he will go over before you, and he will destroy these nations from before you, and you'll possess them, and Joshua, he shall go over before you, as the Lord has said.
 4 And the Lord shall do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorites, and to the land of them, whom he destroyed.
 5 And the Lord shall give them up before your face, so that you can do to them according to all the commandments that I've commanded you.
 6 Be strong and of good courage, don't be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is he that goes with you, he will not fail you, nor forsake you.
 7 And Moses called to Joshua, and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage, for you must go with these people to the land that the Lord has promised to their fathers to give them, and you shall cause them to inherit it.
 8 And the Lord is he that goes before you, he will be with you, he will not fail you, nor forsake you, don't fear, nor be dismayed."
 9 And Moses wrote this law, and gave it to the priests the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel.
 10 And Moses commanded them, saying, "At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,
 11 When all Israel has come to appear before the Lord your God in the place that he shall choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
 12 Gather the people together, men, and women, and children, and your stranger that is within your gates, so that they'll hear, and so that they'll learn, and fear the Lord your God, and observe to do all the words of this law,
 13 And so that their children, that haven't known anything, will hear, and learn to fear the Lord your God, as long as you live in the land where you go over Jordan to possess it."
 14 And the Lord said to Moses, "See, your days approach that you must die, call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, so that I can give him a command."  And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tabernacle of the congregation.
 15 And the Lord appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of a cloud, and the pillar of the cloud stood over the door of the tabernacle.
 16 And the Lord said to Moses, "See, you'll sleep with your fathers, and these people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, where they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant that I've made with them.
 17 Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall happen to them, so that they will say in that day, Haven't these evils come on us, because our God is not among us?
 18 And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils that they shall have done, in that they have turned to other gods.
 19 Now therefore write this song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Israel, put it in their mouths, so that this song will be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
 20 For when I shall have brought them into the land that I promised to their fathers, that flows with milk and honey, and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and grown fat, then they'll turn to other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.
 21 And it shall occur, when many evils and troubles have happened to them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness, for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their descendants, for I know their imaginations that they have, even now, before I have brought them into the land that I promised."
 22 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel.
 23 And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a command, and said, "Be strong and of a good courage, for you shall bring the children of Israel into the land that I promised them, and I will be with you."
 24 And when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
 25 Moses commanded the Levites, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying,
 26 "Take this book of the law, and put it inside of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, so it will be there for a witness against you.
 27 For I know your rebellion, and you stiff neck, see, while I am yet alive with you this day, you've been rebellious against the Lord, and how much more after my death?
 28 Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, so I can speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.
 29 For I know that after my death you'll completely corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way that I've commanded you, and evil will happen to you in the latter days, because you'll do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands."
 30 And Moses spoke in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.

___Deuteronomy chapter 32
 1 "Give ear, O you heavens, and I will speak, and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
 2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distill like the dew, like the small rain on the tender herb, and like the showers on the grass,
 3 Because I will publish the name of the Lord, ascribe greatness to our God.
 4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice, a God of truth and without sin, just and right is he.
 5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children, they are a perverse and crooked generation.
 6 Do you thus repay the Lord, O foolish people and unwise?  Is not he your father that has bought you?  Hasn't he made you, and established you?
 7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations, ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you.
 8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
 9 For the Lord's portion is his people, Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
 10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness, he led him around, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
 11 Like an eagle stirs up her nest, flutters over her young, spreads out her wings, takes them, carries them on her wings,
 12 So the Lord alone led him, and there was no strange god with him.
 13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, so he could eat the increase of the fields, and he made him suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock,
 14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat, and you drank the pure blood of the grape.
 15 But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked, you've become fat, you've grown thick, you're covered with fatness, then he forsook God who made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
 16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, they provoked him to anger with abominations.
 17 They sacrificed to devils, not to God, to gods whom they didn't know, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers didn't fear.
 18 You are unmindful of the Rock that begat you, and have forgotten God that formed you.
 19 And when the Lord saw it, he hated them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
 20 And he said, "I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be, for they are a very perverse generation, children in whom is no faith.
 21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God, they have provoked me to anger with their vanities, and I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people, I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
 22 For a fire is kindled in my anger, and shall burn to the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with its increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
 23 I will heap mischiefs on them, I will use up my arrows on them.
 24 They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction, I will also send the teeth of beasts on them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
 25 The sword outside, and terror inside, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.
 26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to stop from among men,
 27 Were it not that I feared the anger of the enemy, so their adversaries won't behave themselves strangely, and so they won't say, Our hand is high, and the Lord hasn't done all this.
 28 For they are a nation void of advice, nor is there any understanding in them.
 29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
 30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up?
 31 For their rock is not like our Rock, our enemies themselves being judges.
 32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah, their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter,
 33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
 34 Isn't this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
 35 To me belongs vengeance, and recompence, their foot shall slide in due time, for the day of their calamity near, and the things that shall come on them hurry.
 36 For the Lord shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, and there is no one shut up, or left.
 37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
 38 That ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings?  Let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
 39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me, I kill, and I make alive, I wound, and I heal, nor is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
 40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live forever.
 41 If I whet my glittering sword, and my hand takes hold on judgment, I will render vengeance to my enemies, and will reward those who hate me.
 42 I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges on the enemy.
 43 Rejoice, O you nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will repay vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful to his land, and to his people."
 44 And Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
 45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel,
 46 And he said to them, "Set your hearts to all the words that I testify among you this day, that you shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
 47 For it is not a vain thing for you, because it is your life, and through this thing you shall prolong your days in the land, where you go over Jordan to possess it."
 48 And the Lord spoke to Moses that same day, saying,
 49 "Get up into this mountain Abarim, to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is opposite Jericho, and look at the land of Canaan, that I give to the children of Israel for a possession,
 50 And die in the mountain where you go up, and be gathered to your people, like Aaron your brother died in Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people,
 51 Because you trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin, because you didn't sanctify me among the children of Israel.
 52 Yet you shall see the land before you, but you shall not go there to the land that I give the children of Israel."

___Deuteronomy chapter 33
 1 And this is the blessing, with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
 2 And he said, "The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir to them, he shined out from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints, from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
 3 Yes, he loved the people, all his saints are in your hand, and they sat down at your feet, everyone shall receive of your words.
 4 Moses commanded us a law, the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.
 5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.
 6 Let Reuben live, and not die, and let his men not be few.
 7 And this is the blessing of Judah, and he said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him to his people, let his hands be sufficient for him, and be a help to him from his enemies.
 8 And of Levi he said, Let your Thummim and your Urim be with your holy one, whom you proved at Massah, and with whom you strove at the waters of Meribah,
 9 Who said to his father and to his mother, I have not seen him, nor did he acknowledge his brothers, nor did he know his own children, for they have observed your word, and kept your covenant.
 10 They shall teach Jacob your judgments, and Israel your law, they shall put incense before you, and whole burnt sacrifice on your altar.
 11 Bless his substance, Lord, and accept the work of his hands, strike through the loins of those who rise against him, and of those who hate him, so that they don't rise again.
 12 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall live in safety by him, and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall live between his shoulders.
 13 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath,
 14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
 15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,
 16 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness of it, and for the good will of him that lived in the bush, let the blessing come on the head of Joseph, and on the top of the head of him that was separated from his brothers.
 17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like horns of the rhinoceros, with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth, and they are the tens of thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
 18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out, and, Issachar, in your tents.
 19 They shall call the people to the mountain, there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness, for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hidden in the sand.
 20 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlarges Gad, he lives like a lion, and tears the arm with the crown of the head.
 21 And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, he was seated, and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with Israel.
 22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp, he shall leap from Bashan.
 23 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favor, and full with the blessing of the Lord, possess the west and the south.
 24 And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children, let him be acceptable to his brothers, and let him dip his foot in oil.
 25 Your shoes shall be iron and brass, and as your days, so shall your strength be.
 26 There is no one like the God of Jeshurun, who rides on the heaven in your help, and in his excellency on the sky.
 27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms, and he shall thrust out the enemy from before you, and shall say, Destroy them.
 28 Israel then shall live in safety alone, the fountain of Jacob shall be on a land of corn and wine, also his heavens shall drop down dew.
 29 Happy are you, O Israel, who is like you, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of your help, and who is the sword of your excellency!  And your enemies shall be found liars to you, and you shall tread on their high places."

___Deuteronomy chapter 34
 1 And Moses went up from the plains of Moab to the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is opposite Jericho.  And the Lord showed him all the land of Gilead, as far as Dan,
 2 And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, as far as the farthest sea,
 3 And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, to Zoar.
 4 And the Lord said to him, "This is the land that I promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, I will give it to your descendants, I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shalt not go over there."
 5 So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord.
 6 And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Bethpeor, but no man knows about his tomb to this day.
 7 And Moses was one hundred twenty years old when he died, his eye was not dim, nor his natural force decreased.
 8 And the children of Israel cried for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, so the days of crying and mourning for Moses were ended.
 9 And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him, and the children of Israel listened to him, and did as the Lord commanded Moses.
 10 And there didn't arise a prophet since in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,
 11 In all the signs and the wonders, that the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
 12 And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror that Moses showed in the sight of all Israel.
