001:001
| Now
these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every
man and his household came with Jacob. |
001:002 | Reuben,
Simeon, Levi, and Judah, |
001:003 | Issachar,
Zebulun, and Benjamin, |
001:004 | Dan,
and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. |
001:005 | And
all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph
was in Egypt already. |
001:006 | And
Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation. |
001:007 | And
the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied,
and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them. |
001:008 | Now
there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. |
001:009 | And
he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more
and mightier than we: |
001:010 | Come
on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass,
that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and
fight against us, and so get them up out of the land. |
001:011 | Therefore
they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And
they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. |
001:012 | But
the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were
grieved because of the children of Israel. |
001:013 | And
the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour: |
001:014 | And
they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and
in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made
them serve, was with rigour. |
001:015 | And
the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one
was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: |
001:016 | And
he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them
upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter,
then she shall live. |
001:017 | But
the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but
saved the men children alive. |
001:018 | And
the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye
done this thing, and have saved the men children alive? |
001:019 | And
the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian
women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto
them. |
001:020 | Therefore
God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very
mighty. |
001:021 | And
it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
|
001:022 | And
Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast
into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive. |
|
002:001
| And
there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
| 002:002 | And
the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly
child, she hid him three months. |
002:003 | 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 therein; and she laid
it in the flags by the river's brink. |
002:004 | And
his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. |
002:005 | And
the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens
walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags,
she sent her maid to fetch it. |
002:006 | And
when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And
she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
|
002:007 | Then
said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse
of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? |
002:008 | And
Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's
mother. |
002:009 | And
Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me,
and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.
|
002:010 | And
the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became
her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out
of the water. |
002:011 | And
it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto
his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting
an Hebrew, one of his brethren. |
002:012 | And
he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he
slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. |
002:013 | And
when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together:
and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow? |
002:014 | And
he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill
me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this
thing is known. |
002:015 | Now
when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from
the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a
well. |
002:016 | Now
the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and
filled the troughs to water their father's flock. |
002:017 | And
the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them,
and watered their flock. |
002:018 | And
when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so
soon to day? |
002:019 | 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. |
002:020 | And
he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the
man? call him, that he may eat bread. |
002:021 | And
Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
|
002:022 | And
she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been
a stranger in a strange land. |
002:023 | And
it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children
of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came
up unto God by reason of the bondage. |
002:024 | And
God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with
Isaac, and with Jacob. |
002:025 | And
God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them. |
|
003:001
| 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, even to Horeb. | 003:002 | And
the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst
of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush
was not consumed. |
003:003 | And
Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is
not burnt. |
003:004 | And
when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the
midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. |
003:005 | And
he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the
place whereon thou standest is holy ground. |
003:006 | Moreover
he said, I am the God of thy 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 upon
God. |
003:007 | And
the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in
Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know
their sorrows; |
003:008 | And
I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring
them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing
with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and
the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites. |
003:009 | Now
therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I
have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them. |
003:010 | Come
now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth
my people the children of Israel out of Egypt. |
003:011 | And
Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should
bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? |
003:012 | And
he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee,
that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt,
ye shall serve God upon this mountain. |
003:013 | And
Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall
say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall
say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? |
003:014 | And
God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto
the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. |
003:015 | And
God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel,
the LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is
my memorial unto all generations. |
003:016 | Go,
and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, The LORD God of
your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me,
saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt:
|
003:017 | And
I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites,
and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.
|
003:018 | And
they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders of
Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD God of
the Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three days'
journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God. |
003:019 | And
I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty hand.
|
003:020 | And
I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will
do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go. |
003:021 | And
I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall
come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty. |
003:022 | But
every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her
house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put
them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
|
|
004:001
| And
Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken
unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee. | 004:002 | And
the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod. |
004:003 | And
he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became
a serpent; and Moses fled from before it. |
004:004 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And
he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand: |
004:005 | That
they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the
God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee. |
004:006 | And
the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And
he put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was
leprous as snow. |
004:007 | And
he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his
bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again
as his other flesh. |
004:008 | And
it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the
voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
|
004:009 | And
it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither
hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and
pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river
shall become blood upon the dry land. |
004:010 | And
Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore,
nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of
a slow tongue. |
004:011 | And
the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb,
or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD? |
004:012 | Now
therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt
say. |
004:013 | And
he said, O my LORD, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send.
|
004:014 | And
the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron
the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he
cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.
|
004:015 | And
thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy
mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do. |
004:016 | And
he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall be
to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God. |
004:017 | And
thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do signs. |
004:018 | And
Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and said unto him, Let
me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see
whether they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace. |
004:019 | And
the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt: for all the men
are dead which sought thy life. |
004:020 | And
Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon an ass, and he returned
to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the rod of God in his hand. |
004:021 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou
do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but I
will harden his heart, that he shall not let the people go. |
004:022 | And
thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my
firstborn: |
004:023 | And
I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to
let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn. |
004:024 | And
it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him, and sought to
kill him. |
004:025 | Then
Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast
it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. |
004:026 | So
he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art, because of the circumcision.
|
004:027 | And
the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went,
and met him in the mount of God, and kissed him. |
004:028 | And
Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent him, and all the signs
which he had commanded him. |
004:029 | And
Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of
Israel: |
004:030 | And
Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and did the
signs in the sight of the people. |
004:031 | And
the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children
of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their
heads and worshipped. |
|
005:001
| And
afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God
of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.
| 005:002 | And
Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go?
I know not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go. |
005:003 | And
they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee,
three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest
he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword. |
005:004 | And
the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the
people from their works? get you unto your burdens. |
005:005 | And
Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them
rest from their burdens. |
005:006 | And
Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers,
saying, |
005:007 | Ye
shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them
go and gather straw for themselves. |
005:008 | And
the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them;
ye shall not diminish ought thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cry,
saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God. |
005:009 | Let
there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let
them not regard vain words. |
005:010 | And
the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake
to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw. |
005:011 | Go
ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be
diminished. |
005:012 | So
the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather
stubble instead of straw. |
005:013 | And
the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil your works, your daily tasks, as
when there was straw. |
005:014 | And
the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's taskmasters had set
over them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your
task in making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore? |
005:015 | Then
the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying,
Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants? |
005:016 | There
is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and, behold,
thy servants are beaten; but the fault is in thine own people. |
005:017 | But
he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore ye say, Let us go and do sacrifice
to the LORD. |
005:018 | Go
therefore now, and work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye
deliver the tale of bricks. |
005:019 | And
the officers of the children of Israel did see that they were in evil case,
after it was said, Ye shall not minish ought from your bricks of your daily
task. |
005:020 | And
they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh:
|
005:021 | And
they said unto them, The LORD look upon you, and judge; because ye have made
our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,
to put a sword in their hand to slay us. |
005:022 | And
Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, LORD, wherefore hast thou so evil entreated
this people? why is it that thou hast sent me? |
005:023 | For
since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people;
neither hast thou delivered thy people at all. |
|
006:001
| Then
the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for
with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive
them out of his land. | 006:002 | And
God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: |
006:003 | And
I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty,
but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them. |
006:004 | And
I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan,
the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers. |
006:005 | And
I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians
keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant. |
006:006 | Wherefore
say unto the children of Israel, I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from
under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage,
and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments: |
006:007 | And
I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall
know that I am the LORD your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens
of the Egyptians. |
006:008 | And
I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the which I did swear to give
it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage:
I am the LORD. |
006:009 | And
Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses
for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage. |
006:010 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
006:011 | Go
in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go
out of his land. |
006:012 | And
Moses spake before the LORD, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not
hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised
lips? |
006:013 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the children
of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel
out of the land of Egypt. |
006:014 | These
be the heads of their fathers' houses: The sons of Reuben the firstborn of
Israel; Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi: these be the families of Reuben.
|
006:015 | 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. |
006:016 | 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 an hundred thirty
and seven years. |
006:017 | The
sons of Gershon; Libni, and Shimi, according to their families. |
006:018 | And
the sons of Kohath; Amram, and Izhar, and Hebron, and Uzziel: and the years
of the life of Kohath were an hundred thirty and three years. |
006:019 | And
the sons of Merari; Mahali and Mushi: these are the families of Levi according
to their generations. |
006:020 | And
Amram took him Jochebed his father's sister to wife; and she bare him Aaron
and Moses: and the years of the life of Amram were an hundred and thirty and
seven years. |
006:021 | And
the sons of Izhar; Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri. |
006:022 | And
the sons of Uzziel; Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Zithri. |
006:023 | And
Aaron took him Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab, sister of Naashon, to wife;
and she bare him Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. |
006:024 | And
the sons of Korah; Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph: these are the families
of the Korhites. |
006:025 | And
Eleazar Aaron's son took him one of the daughters of Putiel to wife; and she
bare him Phinehas: these are the heads of the fathers of the Levites according
to their families. |
006:026 | 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. |
006:027 | These
are they which spake to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of
Israel from Egypt: these are that Moses and Aaron. |
006:028 | And
it came to pass on the day when the LORD spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt,
|
006:029 | That
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, I am the LORD: speak thou unto Pharaoh king
of Egypt all that I say unto thee. |
006:030 | And
Moses said before the LORD, Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall
Pharaoh hearken unto me? |
|
007:001
| And
the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron
thy brother shall be thy prophet. | 007:002 | Thou
shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto
Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land. |
007:003 | And
I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the
land of Egypt. |
007:004 | But
Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and
bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land
of Egypt by great judgments. |
007:005 | And
the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth mine hand
upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them. |
007:006 | And
Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded them, so did they. |
007:007 | And
Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when
they spake unto Pharaoh. |
007:008 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
007:009 | When
Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt
say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become
a serpent. |
007:010 | And
Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded:
and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it
became a serpent. |
007:011 | Then
Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt,
they also did in like manner with their enchantments. |
007:012 | For
they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod
swallowed up their rods. |
007:013 | And
he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had
said. |
007:014 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the
people go. |
007:015 | Get
thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou
shalt stand by the river's brink against he come; and the rod which was turned
to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand. |
007:016 | And
thou shalt say unto him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee,
saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold,
hitherto thou wouldest not hear. |
007:017 | Thus
saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will
smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river,
and they shall be turned to blood. |
007:018 | And
the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the
Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river. |
007:019 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine
hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon
their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood;
and that there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels
of wood, and in vessels of stone. |
007:020 | And
Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and
smote 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
to blood. |
007:021 | And
the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians
could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all
the land of Egypt. |
007:022 | And
the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart
was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the LORD had said. |
007:023 | And
Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he set his heart to this
also. |
007:024 | And
all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they
could not drink of the water of the river. |
007:025 | And
seven days were fulfilled, after that the LORD had smitten the river. |
|
008:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the
LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me. | 008:002 | And
if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
|
008:003 | And
the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into
thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house
of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
|
008:004 | And
the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy
servants. |
008:005 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy
rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs
to come up upon the land of Egypt. |
008:006 | And
Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up,
and covered the land of Egypt. |
008:007 | And
the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the
land of Egypt. |
008:008 | Then
Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat the LORD, that he may
take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people
go, that they may do sacrifice unto the LORD. |
008:009 | And
Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I intreat for thee, and
for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy
houses, that they may remain in the river only? |
008:010 | And
he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word: that thou mayest
know that there is none like unto the LORD our God. |
008:011 | And
the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants,
and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only. |
008:012 | And
Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the LORD because
of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh. |
008:013 | 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. |
008:014 | And
they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank. |
008:015 | But
when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened
not unto them; as the LORD had said. |
008:016 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the
dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
|
008:017 | And
they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote 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. |
008:018 | And
the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they
could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast. |
008:019 | Then
the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh's heart
was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said. |
008:020 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh;
lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let
my people go, that they may serve me. |
008:021 | Else,
if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon
thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and
the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the
ground whereon they are. |
008:022 | And
I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that
no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the
LORD in the midst of the earth. |
008:023 | And
I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this
sign be. |
008:024 | And
the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of
Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the
land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies. |
008:025 | And
Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your
God in the land. |
008:026 | And
Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination
of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination
of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us? |
008:027 | We
will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD
our God, as he shall command us. |
008:028 | And
Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God
in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me. |
008:029 | And
Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the LORD that the
swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people,
to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the
people go to sacrifice to the LORD. |
008:030 | And
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD. |
008:031 | 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.
|
008:032 | And
Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people
go. |
|
009:001
| Then
the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the
LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me. | 009:002 | For
if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still, |
009:003 | Behold,
the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle which is in the field, upon the horses,
upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: there shall
be a very grievous murrain. |
009:004 | And
the LORD shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt:
and there shall nothing die of all that is the children's of Israel. |
009:005 | And
the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the LORD shall do this thing
in the land. |
009:006 | And
the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died: but
of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one. |
009:007 | And
Pharaoh sent, and, behold, 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. |
009:008 | And
the LORD said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take to you handfuls of ashes of the
furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the heaven in the sight of Pharaoh.
|
009:009 | And
it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking
forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt.
|
009:010 | And
they took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled
it up toward heaven; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man,
and upon beast. |
009:011 | And
the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boil
was upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians. |
009:012 | And
the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as
the LORD had spoken unto Moses. |
009:013 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh,
and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go,
that they may serve me. |
009:014 | For
I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants,
and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all
the earth. |
009:015 | For
now I will stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people with pestilence;
and thou shalt be cut off from the earth. |
009:016 | And
in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power;
and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth. |
009:017 | As
yet exaltest thou thyself against my people, that thou wilt not let them go?
|
009:018 | Behold,
to morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such
as hath not been in Egypt since the foundation thereof even until now. |
009:019 | Send
therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field;
for upon every man and beast which shall be found in the field, and shall not
be brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die. |
009:020 | He
that feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants
and his cattle flee into the houses: |
009:021 | And
he that regarded not the word of the LORD left his servants and his cattle
in the field. |
009:022 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth thine hand toward heaven, that there
may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every
herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt. |
009:023 | And
Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the LORD sent thunder and
hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground; and the LORD rained hail upon
the land of Egypt. |
009:024 | So
there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous, such as there
was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. |
009:025 | And
the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field,
both man and beast; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every
tree of the field. |
009:026 | Only
in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.
|
009:027 | And
Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, I have sinned
this time: the LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked. |
009:028 | Intreat
the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail;
and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer. |
009:029 | And
Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad
my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be
any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD's. |
009:030 | But
as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear the LORD God.
|
009:031 | And
the flax and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the ear, and the
flax was bolled. |
009:032 | But
the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for they were not grown up. |
009:033 | And
Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands unto the
LORD: and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the
earth. |
009:034 | And
when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he
sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants. |
009:035 | And
the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the children of Israel
go; as the LORD had spoken by Moses. |
|
010:001
| And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart,
and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
| 010:002 | And
that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things
I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye
may know how that I am the LORD. |
010:003 | And
Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD
God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me?
let my people go, that they may serve me. |
010:004 | Else,
if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts
into thy coast: |
010:005 | And
they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the
earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth
unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out
of the field: |
010:006 | And
they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses
of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have
seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned
himself, and went out from Pharaoh. |
010:007 | And
Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us?
let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet
that Egypt is destroyed? |
010:008 | And
Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go,
serve the LORD your God: but who are they that shall go? |
010:009 | 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 unto the LORD. |
010:010 | And
he said unto 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. |
010:011 | Not
so: go now ye that are men, and serve the LORD; for that ye did desire. And
they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence. |
010:012 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for
the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb
of the land, even all that the hail hath left. |
010:013 | And
Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought
an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was
morning, the east wind brought the locusts. |
010:014 | And
the locust went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts
of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as
they, neither after them shall be such. |
010:015 | For
they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and
they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the
hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the
herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt. |
010:016 | Then
Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against
the LORD your God, and against you. |
010:017 | Now
therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and intreat the LORD
your God, that he may take away from me this death only. |
010:018 | And
he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD. |
010:019 | And
the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and
cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts
of Egypt. |
010:020 | But
the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of
Israel go. |
010:021 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there
may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. |
010:022 | And
Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness
in all the land of Egypt three days: |
010:023 | They
saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all
the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. |
010:024 | And
Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks
and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you. |
010:025 | And
Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we
may sacrifice unto the LORD our God. |
010:026 | Our
cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof
must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve
the LORD, until we come thither. |
010:027 | But
the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go. |
010:028 | And
Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face
no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die. |
010:029 | And
Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more. |
|
011:001
| And
the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and
upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go,
he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether. | 011:002 | Speak
now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and
every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver and jewels of gold. |
011:003 | And
the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover 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. |
011:004 | And
Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the midst
of Egypt: |
011:005 | And
all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first born of Pharaoh
that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that
is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts. |
011:006 | 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 any more. |
011:007 | But
against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against
man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between
the Egyptians and Israel. |
011:008 | And
all these thy servants shall come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto
me, saying, Get thee out, and all the people that follow thee: and after that
I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger. |
011:009 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you; that my wonders
may be multiplied in the land of Egypt. |
011:010 | And
Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened
Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of
his land. |
|
012:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, | 012:002 | This
month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month
of the year to you. |
012:003 | Speak
ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month
they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers,
a lamb for an house: |
012:004 | And
if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next
unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according
to his eating shall make your count for the lamb. |
012:005 | Your
lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out
from the sheep, or from the goats: |
012:006 | And
ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole
assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. |
012:007 | And
they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the
upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. |
012:008 | And
they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread;
and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. |
012:009 | Eat
not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head
with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof. |
012:010 | And
ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth
of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire. |
012:011 | And
thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and
your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD's passover.
|
012:012 | For
I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite 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. |
012:013 | And
the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when
I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you
to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. |
012:014 | And
this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to
the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance
for ever. |
012:015 | Seven
days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven
out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day
until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel. |
012:016 | And
in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day
there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done
in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you.
|
012:017 | And
ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have
I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe
this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever. |
012:018 | In
the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened
bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even. |
012:019 | Seven
days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that
which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of
Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. |
012:020 | Ye
shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened
bread. |
012:021 | Then
Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and
take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. |
012:022 | And
ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason,
and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the
bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.
|
012:023 | For
the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood
upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door,
and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
|
012:024 | And
ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.
|
012:025 | And
it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the LORD will give
you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service. |
012:026 | And
it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye
by this service? |
012:027 | That
ye 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 smote the Egyptians, and
delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. |
012:028 | And
the children of Israel went away, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses and
Aaron, so did they. |
012:029 | And
it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn
of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle. |
012:030 | And
Pharaoh rose 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 one dead. |
012:031 | And
he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth
from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the
LORD, as ye have said. |
012:032 | Also
take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me
also. |
012:033 | And
the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of
the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men. |
012:034 | And
the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being
bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders. |
012:035 | And
the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed
of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: |
012:036 | And
the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they
lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.
|
012:037 | And
the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred
thousand on foot that were men, beside children. |
012:038 | And
a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very
much cattle. |
012:039 | And
they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt,
for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not
tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual. |
012:040 | Now
the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred
and thirty years. |
012:041 | And
it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame
day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land
of Egypt. |
012:042 | It
is a night to be much observed unto the LORD for bringing them out from the
land of Egypt: this is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children
of Israel in their generations. |
012:043 | And
the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover:
There shall no stranger eat thereof: |
012:044 | But
every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him,
then shall he eat thereof. |
012:045 | A
foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof. |
012:046 | In
one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh
abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof. |
012:047 | All
the congregation of Israel shall keep it. |
012:048 | And
when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, 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 as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person
shall eat thereof. |
012:049 | One
law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth
among you. |
012:050 | Thus
did all the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses and Aaron, so did
they. |
012:051 | And
it came to pass the selfsame day, that the LORD did bring the children of Israel
out of the land of Egypt by their armies. |
|
013:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 013:002 | Sanctify
unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of
Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine. |
013:003 | And
Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye 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. |
013:004 | This
day came ye out in the month Abib. |
013:005 | And
it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites,
and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which
he sware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey,
that thou shalt keep this service in this month. |
013:006 | Seven
days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast
to the LORD. |
013:007 | Unleavened
bread shall be eaten seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen
with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters.
|
013:008 | And
thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying, This is done because of that which
the LORD did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt. |
013:009 | And
it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between
thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand
hath the LORD brought thee out of Egypt. |
013:010 | Thou
shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year. |
013:011 | And
it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites,
as he sware unto thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it thee, |
013:012 | That
thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that openeth the matrix, and every firstling
that cometh of a beast which thou hast; the males shall be the LORD's. |
013:013 | And
every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not
redeem it, then thou shalt break his neck: and all the firstborn of man among
thy children shalt thou redeem. |
013:014 | And
it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this?
that thou shalt say unto him, By strength of hand the LORD brought us out from
Egypt, from the house of bondage: |
013:015 | And
it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that the LORD slew 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 openeth the matrix, being
males; but all the firstborn of my children I redeem. |
013:016 | And
it shall be for a token upon thine hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes:
for by strength of hand the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt. |
013:017 | And
it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not
through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for
God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return
to Egypt: |
013:018 | But
God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea:
and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt. |
013:019 | And
Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children
of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones
away hence with you. |
013:020 | And
they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of
the wilderness. |
013:021 | 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:
|
013:022 | He
took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night,
from before the people. |
|
014:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 014:002 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pihahiroth, between
Migdol and the sea, over against Baalzephon: before it shall ye encamp by the
sea. |
014:003 | For
Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land,
the wilderness hath shut them in. |
014:004 | And
I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will
be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know
that I am the LORD. And they did so. |
014:005 | And
it was told the king of Egypt 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? |
014:006 | And
he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him: |
014:007 | And
he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains
over every one of them. |
014:008 | 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 an high hand.
|
014:009 | 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. |
014:010 | And
when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold,
the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children
of Israel cried out unto the LORD. |
014:011 | And
they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken
us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to
carry us forth out of Egypt? |
014:012 | Is
not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that
we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians,
than that we should die in the wilderness. |
014:013 | And
Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation
of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have
seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. |
014:014 | The
LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. |
014:015 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children
of Israel, that they go forward: |
014:016 | But
lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it:
and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the
sea. |
014:017 | And
I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow
them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his
chariots, and upon his horsemen. |
014:018 | And
the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon
Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen. |
014:019 | And
the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind
them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind
them: |
014:020 | 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 came not near the other all the night. |
014:021 | 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. |
014:022 | And
the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground:
and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
|
014:023 | And
the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even
all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. |
014:024 | And
it came to pass, that in the morning watch the LORD looked unto the host of
the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the
host of the Egyptians, |
014:025 | And
took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians
said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them against
the Egyptians. |
014:026 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters
may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
|
014:027 | And
Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength
when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD
overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. |
014:028 | 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 so much
as one of them. |
014:029 | But
the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the
waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. |
014:030 | Thus
the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel
saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore. |
014:031 | And
Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people
feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses. |
|
015:001
| Then
sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying,
I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and
his rider hath he thrown into the sea. | 015:002 | The
LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God,
and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.
|
015:003 | The
LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. |
015:004 | Pharaoh's
chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are
drowned in the Red sea. |
015:005 | The
depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone. |
015:006 | Thy
right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath
dashed in pieces the enemy. |
015:007 | And
in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up
against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
|
015:008 | And
with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods
stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the
sea. |
015:009 | The
enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust
shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
|
015:010 | Thou
didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty
waters. |
015:011 | Who
is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness,
fearful in praises, doing wonders? |
015:012 | Thou
stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. |
015:013 | Thou
in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast
guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation. |
015:014 | The
people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants
of Palestina. |
015:015 | Then
the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall
take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away. |
015:016 | Fear
and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be
as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass
over, which thou hast purchased. |
015:017 | Thou
shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in
the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary,
O LORD, which thy hands have established. |
015:018 | The
LORD shall reign for ever and ever. |
015:019 | 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 upon them; but the children
of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. |
015:020 | 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. |
015:021 | And
Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously;
the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. |
015:022 | 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. |
015:023 | 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. |
015:024 | And
the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? |
015:025 | And
he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast
into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute
and an ordinance, and there he proved them, |
015:026 | And
said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and
wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments,
and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which
I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee. |
015:027 | And
they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten
palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters. |
|
016:001
| And
they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children
of Israel came unto 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. | 016:002 | And
the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and
Aaron in the wilderness: |
016:003 | And
the children of Israel said unto 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
did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness,
to kill this whole assembly with hunger. |
016:004 | Then
said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and
the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove
them, whether they will walk in my law, or no. |
016:005 | And
it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which
they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily. |
016:006 | And
Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At even, then ye shall
know that the LORD hath brought you out from the land of Egypt: |
016:007 | And
in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the LORD; for that he heareth
your murmurings against the LORD: and what are we, that ye murmur against us?
|
016:008 | 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; for that the LORD heareth your
murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are
not against us, but against the LORD. |
016:009 | And
Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel,
Come near before the LORD: for he hath heard your murmurings. |
016:010 | And
it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children
of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of
the LORD appeared in the cloud. |
016:011 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
016:012 | I
have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying,
At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread;
and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God. |
016:013 | And
it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and
in the morning the dew lay round about the host. |
016:014 | And
when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness
there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground. |
016:015 | And
when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna:
for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread
which the LORD hath given you to eat. |
016:016 | This
is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according
to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons;
take ye every man for them which are in his tents. |
016:017 | And
the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less. |
016:018 | And
when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over,
and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according
to his eating. |
016:019 | And
Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning. |
016:020 | Notwithstanding
they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning,
and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them. |
016:021 | And
they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when
the sun waxed hot, it melted. |
016:022 | And
it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two
omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.
|
016:023 | And
he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the
rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day,
and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you
to be kept until the morning. |
016:024 | And
they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither
was there any worm therein. |
016:025 | And
Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the LORD: to day
ye shall not find it in the field. |
016:026 | Six
days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it
there shall be none. |
016:027 | And
it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day
for to gather, and they found none. |
016:028 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my
laws? |
016:029 | See,
for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the
sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man
go out of his place on the seventh day. |
016:030 | So
the people rested on the seventh day. |
016:031 | And
the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander
seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey. |
016:032 | And
Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commandeth, Fill an omer of it
to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have
fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.
|
016:033 | And
Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and
lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations. |
016:034 | As
the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
|
016:035 | And
the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land
inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land
of Canaan. |
016:036 | Now
an omer is the tenth part of an ephah. |
|
017:001
| 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. | 017:002 | Wherefore
the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink.
And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?
|
017:003 | And
the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses,
and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill
us and our children and our cattle with thirst? |
017:004 | And
Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be
almost ready to stone me. |
017:005 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the
elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine
hand, and go. |
017:006 | Behold,
I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite
the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink.
And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. |
017:007 | 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? |
017:008 | Then
came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. |
017:009 | And
Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to
morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.
|
017:010 | So
Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron,
and Hur went up to the top of the hill. |
017:011 | And
it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when
he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. |
017:012 | But
Moses hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he
sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed 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. |
017:013 | And
Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. |
017:014 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse
it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek
from under heaven. |
017:015 | And
Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi: |
017:016 | For
he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek
from generation to generation. |
|
018:001
| 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; | 018:002 | Then
Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent
her back, |
018:003 | And
her two sons; of which the name of the one was Gershom; for he said, I have
been an alien in a strange land: |
018:004 | And
the name of the other was Eliezer; for the God of my father, said he, was mine
help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh: |
018:005 | And
Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into
the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God: |
018:006 | And
he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife,
and her two sons with her. |
018:007 | And
Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him;
and they asked each other of their welfare; and they came into the tent. |
018:008 | And
Moses told his father in law all that the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to
the Egyptians for Israel's sake, and all the travail that had come upon them
by the way, and how the LORD delivered them. |
018:009 | And
Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the LORD had done to Israel, whom
he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians. |
018:010 | And
Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath delivered you out of the hand of
the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people
from under the hand of the Egyptians. |
018:011 | Now
I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they
dealt proudly he was above them. |
018:012 | 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. |
018:013 | And
it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the
people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening. |
018:014 | And
when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What
is this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone,
and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even? |
018:015 | And
Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire
of God: |
018:016 | When
they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another,
and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws. |
018:017 | And
Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
|
018:018 | Thou
wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this
thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
|
018:019 | Hearken
now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be
thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:
|
018:020 | And
thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein
they must walk, and the work that they must do. |
018:021 | Moreover
thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as 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: |
018:022 | And
let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great
matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge:
so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.
|
018:023 | If
thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able
to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace. |
018:024 | So
Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had
said. |
018:025 | 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.
|
018:026 | And
they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses,
but every small matter they judged themselves. |
018:027 | And
Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.
|
|
019:001
| In
the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land
of Egypt, the same day came they into the wilderness of Sinai. | 019:002 | For
they were departed from Rephidim, and were come to the desert of Sinai, and
had pitched in the wilderness; and there Israel camped before the mount. |
019:003 | And
Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying,
Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
|
019:004 | Ye
have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings,
and brought you unto myself. |
019:005 | Now
therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall
be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
|
019:006 | And
ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the
words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. |
019:007 | And
Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces
all these words which the LORD commanded him. |
019:008 | And
all the people answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken we
will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the LORD. |
019:009 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people
may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told
the words of the people unto the LORD. |
019:010 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them to day and
to morrow, and let them wash their clothes, |
019:011 | And
be ready against the third day: for the third day the LORD will come down in
the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai. |
019:012 | And
thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves,
that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth
the mount shall be surely put to death: |
019:013 | There
shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through;
whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: when the trumpet soundeth long,
they shall come up to the mount. |
019:014 | And
Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people;
and they washed their clothes. |
019:015 | And
he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at your wives.
|
019:016 | And
it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there were thunders and
lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet
exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp trembled. |
019:017 | And
Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood
at the nether part of the mount. |
019:018 | And
mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in
fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole
mount quaked greatly. |
019:019 | And
when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses
spake, and God answered him by a voice. |
019:020 | And
the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the top of the mount: and the LORD
called Moses up to the top of the mount; and Moses went up. |
019:021 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, lest they break through
unto the LORD to gaze, and many of them perish. |
019:022 | And
let the priests also, which come near to the LORD, sanctify themselves, lest
the LORD break forth upon them. |
019:023 | And
Moses said unto the LORD, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou
chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about the mount, and sanctify it. |
019:024 | And
the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down, and thou shalt come up, thou,
and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people break through to
come up unto the LORD, lest he break forth upon them. |
019:025 | So
Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them. |
|
020:001
| And
God spake all these words, saying, | 020:002 | I
am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out
of the house of bondage. |
020:003 | Thou
shalt have no other gods before me. |
020:004 | Thou
shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that
is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water
under the earth. |
020:005 | Thou
shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God
am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto
the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; |
020:006 | And
shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
|
020:007 | Thou
shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not
hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. |
020:008 | Remember
the sabbath day, to keep it holy. |
020:009 | Six
days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: |
020:010 | But
the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do
any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant,
nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: |
020:011 | For
in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is,
and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and
hallowed it. |
020:012 | Honour
thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the
LORD thy God giveth thee. |
020:013 | Thou
shalt not kill. |
020:014 | Thou
shalt not commit adultery. |
020:015 | Thou
shalt not steal. |
020:016 | Thou
shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. |
020:017 | Thou
shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's
wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor
any thing that is thy neighbour's. |
020:018 | 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 removed,
and stood afar off. |
020:019 | And
they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God
speak with us, lest we die. |
020:020 | And
Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that
his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not. |
020:021 | And
the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where
God was. |
020:022 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel,
Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven. |
020:023 | Ye
shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods
of gold. |
020:024 | An
altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt
offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places
where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee. |
020:025 | And
if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone:
for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it. |
020:026 | Neither
shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered
thereon. |
|
021:001
| Now
these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them. | 021:002 | If
thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he
shall go out free for nothing. |
021:003 | If
he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then
his wife shall go out with him. |
021:004 | If
his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters;
the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
|
021:005 | And
if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children;
I will not go out free: |
021:006 | Then
his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the
door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with
an aul; and he shall serve him for ever. |
021:007 | And
if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the
menservants do. |
021:008 | If
she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he
let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power,
seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her. |
021:009 | And
if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner
of daughters. |
021:010 | If
he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage,
shall he not diminish. |
021:011 | And
if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
|
021:012 | He
that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death. |
021:013 | And
if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver him into his hand; then I will appoint
thee a place whither he shall flee. |
021:014 | But
if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou
shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die. |
021:015 | And
he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death. |
021:016 | And
he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he
shall surely be put to death. |
021:017 | And
he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death. |
021:018 | And
if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist,
and he die not, but keepeth his bed: |
021:019 | If
he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him
be quit: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to
be thoroughly healed. |
021:020 | And
if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand;
he shall be surely punished. |
021:021 | Notwithstanding,
if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
|
021:022 | If
men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her,
and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's
husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. |
021:023 | And
if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, |
021:024 | Eye
for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, |
021:025 | Burning
for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. |
021:026 | And
if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish;
he shall let him go free for his eye's sake. |
021:027 | And
if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth; he shall
let him go free for his tooth's sake. |
021:028 | If
an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned,
and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit. |
021:029 | But
if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified
to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or
a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
|
021:030 | If
there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his
life whatsoever is laid upon him. |
021:031 | Whether
he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall
it be done unto him. |
021:032 | If
the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master
thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned. |
021:033 | 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 fall therein; |
021:034 | The
owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them;
and the dead beast shall be his. |
021:035 | And
if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die; then they shall sell the live
ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide. |
021:036 | Or
if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath
not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.
|
|
022:001
| If
a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore
five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep. | 022:002 | If
a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood
be shed for him. |
022:003 | If
the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should
make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
|
022:004 | If
the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or
sheep; he shall restore double. |
022:005 | 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; of the best of his own field, and of
the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution. |
022:006 | If
fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing
corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely
make restitution. |
022:007 | If
a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen
out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double. |
022:008 | If
the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto
the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
|
022:009 | For
all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment,
or for any manner of lost thing which another challengeth to be his, the cause
of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn,
he shall pay double unto his neighbour. |
022:010 | If
a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast,
to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it: |
022:011 | Then
shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand
unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he
shall not make it good. |
022:012 | And
if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
|
022:013 | If
it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make
good that which was torn. |
022:014 | And
if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof
being not with it, he shall surely make it good. |
022:015 | But
if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired
thing, it came for his hire. |
022:016 | And
if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely
endow her to be his wife. |
022:017 | If
her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according
to the dowry of virgins. |
022:018 | Thou
shalt not suffer a witch to live. |
022:019 | Whosoever
lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death. |
022:020 | He
that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly
destroyed. |
022:021 | Thou
shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the
land of Egypt. |
022:022 | Ye
shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child. |
022:023 | If
thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear
their cry; |
022:024 | And
my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives
shall be widows, and your children fatherless. |
022:025 | If
thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be
to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury. |
022:026 | If
thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto
him by that the sun goeth down: |
022:027 | For
that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he
sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear;
for I am gracious. |
022:028 | Thou
shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people. |
022:029 | Thou
shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors:
the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me. |
022:030 | Likewise
shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with
his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me. |
022:031 | And
ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of
beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs. |
|
023:001
| Thou
shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an
unrighteous witness. | 023:002 | Thou
shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause
to decline after many to wrest judgment: |
023:003 | Neither
shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause. |
023:004 | If
thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring
it back to him again. |
023:005 | If
thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest
forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him. |
023:006 | Thou
shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause. |
023:007 | Keep
thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not:
for I will not justify the wicked. |
023:008 | And
thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the
words of the righteous. |
023:009 | Also
thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing
ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. |
023:010 | And
six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
|
023:011 | But
the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy
people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like
manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard. |
023:012 | Six
days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine
ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may
be refreshed. |
023:013 | And
in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention
of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth. |
023:014 | Three
times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year. |
023:015 | Thou
shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread
seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for
in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:) |
023:016 | And
the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown
in the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year,
when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field. |
023:017 | Three
items in the year all thy males shall appear before the LORD God. |
023:018 | Thou
shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall
the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning. |
023:019 | The
first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the
LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. |
023:020 | Behold,
I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into
the place which I have prepared. |
023:021 | Beware
of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions:
for my name is in him. |
023:022 | But
if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be
an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. |
023:023 | For
mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the
Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
and I will cut them off. |
023:024 | Thou
shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works:
but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. |
023:025 | And
ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water;
and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. |
023:026 | There
shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy
days I will fulfil. |
023:027 | I
will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou
shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee. |
023:028 | And
I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite,
and the Hittite, from before thee. |
023:029 | I
will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become
desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. |
023:030 | By
little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased,
and inherit the land. |
023:031 | And
I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even unto the sea of the Philistines,
and from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the
land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee. |
023:032 | Thou
shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. |
023:033 | They
shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me: for if thou
serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee. |
|
024:001
| And
he said unto Moses, Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu,
and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off. | 024:002 | And
Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither
shall the people go up with him. |
024:003 | And
Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments:
and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the
LORD hath said will we do. |
024:004 | And
Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and
builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve
tribes of Israel. |
024:005 | And
he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings,
and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD. |
024:006 | And
Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he
sprinkled on the altar. |
024:007 | And
he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and
they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient. |
024:008 | And
Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the
blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these
words. |
024:009 | Then
went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
|
024:010 | And
they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved
work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
|
024:011 | And
upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw
God, and did eat and drink. |
024:012 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I
will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written;
that thou mayest teach them. |
024:013 | And
Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of
God. |
024:014 | And
he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you:
and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do,
let him come unto them. |
024:015 | And
Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount. |
024:016 | And
the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six
days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
|
024:017 | And
the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the
mount in the eyes of the children of Israel. |
024:018 | And
Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and
Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights. |
|
025:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 025:002 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that
giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering. |
025:003 | And
this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
|
025:004 | And
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, |
025:005 | And
rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood, |
025:006 | Oil
for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense, |
025:007 | Onyx
stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate. |
025:008 | And
let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. |
025:009 | According
to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern
of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it. |
025:010 | And
they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the
length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and
a half the height thereof. |
025:011 | And
thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay
it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about. |
025:012 | And
thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners
thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the
other side of it. |
025:013 | And
thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. |
025:014 | And
thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the
ark may be borne with them. |
025:015 | The
staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it. |
025:016 | And
thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee. |
025:017 | And
thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the
length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. |
025:018 | And
thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them,
in the two ends of the mercy seat. |
025:019 | And
make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even
of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. |
025:020 | And
the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat
with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy
seat shall the faces of the cherubims be. |
025:021 | And
thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt
put the testimony that I shall give thee. |
025:022 | And
there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy
seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony,
of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
|
025:023 | Thou
shalt also make a table of shittim wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof,
and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
|
025:024 | And
thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round
about. |
025:025 | And
thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt
make a golden crown to the border thereof round about. |
025:026 | And
thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners
that are on the four feet thereof. |
025:027 | Over
against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the
table. |
025:028 | And
thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that
the table may be borne with them. |
025:029 | And
thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof,
and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. |
025:030 | And
thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway. |
025:031 | And
thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick
be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers,
shall be of the same. |
025:032 | And
six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick
out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other
side: |
025:033 | Three
bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop and a flower in one branch; and three
bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in
the six branches that come out of the candlestick. |
025:034 | And
in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their
knops and their flowers. |
025:035 | And
there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according
to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick. |
025:036 | Their
knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it shall be one beaten work
of pure gold. |
025:037 | And
thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof,
that they may give light over against it. |
025:038 | And
the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. |
025:039 | Of
a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels. |
025:040 | And
look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the
mount. |
|
026:001
| Moreover
thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and
blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make
them. | 026:002 | The
length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of
one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure.
|
026:003 | The
five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains
shall be coupled one to another. |
026:004 | And
thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge
in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another
curtain, in the coupling of the second. |
026:005 | Fifty
loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in
the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops

thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with
the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle. |

026:008 | The
length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain
four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure. |
026:009 | And

and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle. |
026:010 | And
thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost
in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth
the second. |
026:011 | And
thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and
couple the tent together, that it may be one. |
026:012 | And
the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that
remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle. |
026:013 | And
a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth
in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of
the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it. |
026:014 | And
thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering
above of badgers' skins. |
026:015 | And
thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up. |
026:016 | Ten
cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the

026:018 | And
thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side
southward. |
026:019 | And
thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets
under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for
his two tenons. |
026:020 | And
for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty
boards: |
026:021 | And

026:023 | And
two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.
|
026:024 | And
they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together
above the head of it unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall
be for the two corners. |
026:025 | And
they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two
sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. |
026:026 | And

the tabernacle, |
026:027 | And
five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars
for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward. |
026:028 | And
the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end. |
026:029 | And
thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places
for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold. |
026:030 | And
thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was
shewed thee in the mount. |
026:031 | And
thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen
of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made: |
026:032 | And
thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their
hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver. |
026:033 | And
thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither
within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you
between the holy place and the most holy. |
026:034 | And
thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy
place. |
026:035 | And
thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against
the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put
the table on the north side. |
026:036 | And
thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and
scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework. |
026:037 | And

027:003 | And
thou shalt make his pans to receive his ashes, and his shovels, and his basons,
and his fleshhooks, and his firepans: all the vessels thereof thou shalt make
of brass. |
027:004 | And
thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon the net shalt
thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof. |
027:005 | And
thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may
be even to the midst of the altar. |
027:006 | And
thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood, and overlay them
with brass. |
027:007 | And
the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two
sides of the altar, to bear it. |
027:008 | Hollow
with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall
they make it. |
027:009 | And
thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward there
shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen of an hundred cubits long
for one side: |

027:017 | All
the pillars round about the court shall be filleted with silver; their hooks

027:018 | The
length of the court shall be an hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty every
where, and the height five cubits of fine twined linen, and their sockets of

027:019 | All
the vessels of the tabernacle in all the service thereof, and all the pins
thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass. |
027:020 | And
thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring thee pure oil olive
beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn always. |
027:021 | In
the tabernacle of the congregation without the vail, which is before the testimony,
Aaron and his sons shall order it from evening to morning before the LORD:
it shall be a statute for ever unto their generations on the behalf of the
children of Israel. |
|
028:001
| And
take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the
children of Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office, even
Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons. | 028:002 | And
thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
|
028:003 | And
thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the
spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that
he may minister unto me in the priest's office. |
028:004 | And
these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod,
and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make
holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto
me in the priest's office. |
028:005 | And
they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen. |
028:006 | And
they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and
fine twined linen, with cunning work. |
028:007 | It
shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof;
and so it shall be joined together. |
028:008 | And
the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according
to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined linen. |
028:009 | And
thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children
of Israel: |
028:010 | Six
of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other
stone, according to their birth. |
028:011 | With
the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou
engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt
make them to be set in ouches of gold. |
028:012 | And
thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of
memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before
the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial. |
028:013 | And
thou shalt make ouches of gold; |
028:014 | And
two chains of pure gold at the ends; of wreathen work shalt thou make them,
and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches. |
028:015 | And
thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work
of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet,
and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it. |
028:016 | Foursquare
it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall
be the breadth thereof. |
028:017 | And
thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first
row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
|
028:018 | And
the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond. |
028:019 | And
the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst. |
028:020 | And
the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold
in their inclosings. |
028:021 | And
the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according
to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall
they be according to the twelve tribes. |
028:022 | And
thou shalt make upon the breastplate chains at the ends of wreathen work of
pure gold. |
028:023 | And
thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two
rings on the two ends of the breastplate. |
028:024 | And
thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings which are on
the ends of the breastplate. |
028:025 | And
the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two
ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it. |
028:026 | And
thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends
of the breastplate in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod
inward. |
028:027 | And
two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and shalt put them on the two sides
of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart thereof, over against the other
coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod. |
028:028 | And
they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the
ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod,
and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod. |
028:029 | And
Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of
judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial
before the LORD continually. |
028:030 | And
thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and
they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in before the LORD: and Aaron
shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the
LORD continually. |
028:031 | And
thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue. |
028:032 | And
there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have
a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of
an habergeon, that it be not rent. |
028:033 | And
beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple,
and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them
round about: |
028:034 | A
golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem
of the robe round about. |
028:035 | And
it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth
in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die
not. |
028:036 | And
thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings
of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. |
028:037 | And
thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront
of the mitre it shall be. |
028:038 | And
it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the
holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts;
and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before
the LORD. |
028:039 | And
thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre
of fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle of needlework. |
028:040 | And
for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles,
and bonnets shalt thou make for them, for glory and for beauty. |
028:041 | And
thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him; and shalt
anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister
unto me in the priest's office. |
028:042 | And
thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; from the loins
even unto the thighs they shall reach: |
028:043 | And
they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle
of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the
holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for
ever unto him and his seed after him. |
|
029:001
| And
this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them, to minister
unto me in the priest's office: Take one young bullock, and two rams without
blemish, | 029:002 | And
unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened tempered with oil, and wafers unleavened
anointed with oil: of wheaten flour shalt thou make them. |
029:003 | And
thou shalt put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the
bullock and the two rams. |
029:004 | And
Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, and shalt wash them with water. |
029:005 | And
thou shalt take the garments, and put upon Aaron the coat, and the robe of
the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the curious
girdle of the ephod: |
029:006 | And
thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and put the holy crown upon the mitre.
|
029:007 | Then
shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him.
|
029:008 | And
thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them. |
029:009 | And
thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the bonnets
on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and
thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons. |
029:010 | And
thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the congregation:
and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock.
|
029:011 | And
thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
029:012 | And
thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock, and put it upon the horns of the
altar with thy finger, and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar.
|
029:013 | And
thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul that is
above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn
them upon the altar. |
029:014 | But
the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with
fire without the camp: it is a sin offering. |
029:015 | Thou
shalt also take one ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon
the head of the ram. |
029:016 | And
thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood, and sprinkle it round
about upon the altar. |
029:017 | And
thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash the inwards of him, and his legs,
and put them unto his pieces, and unto his head. |
029:018 | And
thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the
LORD: it is a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD. |
029:019 | And
thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands
upon the head of the ram. |
029:020 | Then
shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon the tip of
the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and
upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot,
and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about. |
029:021 | And
thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil,
and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon
the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his garments,
and his sons, and his sons' garments with him. |
029:022 | Also
thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the rump, and the fat that covereth
the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat
that is upon them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of consecration:
|
029:023 | And
one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket
of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD: |
029:024 | And
thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and
shalt wave them for a wave offering before the LORD. |
029:025 | And
thou shalt receive them of their hands, and burn them upon the altar for a
burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the LORD: it is an offering made
by fire unto the LORD. |
029:026 | And
thou shalt take the breast of the ram of Aaron's consecration, and wave it
for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be thy part. |
029:027 | And
thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering, and the shoulder of the
heave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration,
even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons: |
029:028 | And
it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by a statute for ever from the children of
Israel: for it is an heave offering: and it shall be an heave offering from
the children of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace offerings, even their
heave offering unto the LORD. |
029:029 | And
the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons' after him, to be anointed therein,
and to be consecrated in them. |
029:030 | And
that son that is priest in his stead shall put them on seven days, when he
cometh into the tabernacle of the congregation to minister in the holy place.
|
029:031 | And
thou shalt take the ram of the consecration, and seethe his flesh in the holy
place. |
029:032 | And
Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in
the basket by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
029:033 | And
they shall eat those things wherewith the atonement was made, to consecrate
and to sanctify them: but a stranger shall not eat thereof, because they are
holy. |
029:034 | And
if ought of the flesh of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain unto the
morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten,
because it is holy. |
029:035 | And
thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and to his sons, according to all things which
I have commanded thee: seven days shalt thou consecrate them. |
029:036 | And
thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement: and
thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and
thou shalt anoint it, to sanctify it. |
029:037 | Seven
days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it; and it shall
be an altar most holy: whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy. |
029:038 | Now
this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of the first
year day by day continually. |
029:039 | The
one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer
at even: |
029:040 | And
with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an
hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.
|
029:041 | And
the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto according to
the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof,
for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD. |
029:042 | This
shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door
of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you,
to speak there unto thee. |
029:043 | And
there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be
sanctified by my glory. |
029:044 | And
I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify
also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office. |
029:045 | And
I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God. |
029:046 | And
they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them forth out of
the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God. |
|
030:001
| And
thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make
it. | 030:002 | A
cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare
shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof
shall be of the same. |
030:003 | And
thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides thereof
round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of
gold round about. |
030:004 | And
two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the two corners
thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for
places for the staves to bear it withal. |
030:005 | And
thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. |
030:006 | And
thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before
the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee. |
030:007 | And
Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the
lamps, he shall burn incense upon it. |
030:008 | And
when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual
incense before the LORD throughout your generations. |
030:009 | Ye
shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering;
neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon. |
030:010 | And
Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the
blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement
upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD. |
030:011 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:012 | When
thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall
they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest
them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them. |
030:013 | This
they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half
a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an
half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD. |
030:014 | Every
one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above,
shall give an offering unto the LORD. |
030:015 | The
rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel,
when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.
|
030:016 | And
thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint
it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a
memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement
for your souls. |
030:017 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:018 | Thou
shalt also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to wash withal:
and thou shalt put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar,
and thou shalt put water therein. |
030:019 | For
Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat: |
030:020 | When
they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water,
that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn
offering made by fire unto the LORD: |
030:021 | So
they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it shall
be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their
generations. |
030:022 | Moreover
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:023 | Take
thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and
of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of
sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels, |
030:024 | And
of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil
olive an hin: |
030:025 | And
thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the
art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil. |
030:026 | And
thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark
of the testimony, |
030:027 | And
the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the
altar of incense, |
030:028 | And
the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot.
|
030:029 | And
thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them
shall be holy. |
030:030 | And
thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister
unto me in the priest's office. |
030:031 | And
thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy
anointing oil unto me throughout your generations. |
030:032 | Upon
man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any other like it,
after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you. |
030:033 | Whosoever
compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall
even be cut off from his people. |
030:034 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha,
and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there
be a like weight: |
030:035 | And
thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary,
tempered together, pure and holy: |
030:036 | And
thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in
the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be
unto you most holy. |
030:037 | And
as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according
to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD. |
030:038 | Whosoever
shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his
people. |
|
031:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 031:002 | See,
I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe
of Judah: |
031:003 | And
I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding,
and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, |
031:004 | To
devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, |
031:005 | And
in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all
manner of workmanship. |
031:006 | And
I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe
of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that
they may make all that I have commanded thee; |
031:007 | The
tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy
seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle, |
031:008 | And
the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture,
and the altar of incense, |
031:009 | And
the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,
|
031:010 | And
the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the
garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office, |
031:011 | And
the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that
I have commanded thee shall they do. |
031:012 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
031:013 | Speak
thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall
keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that
ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. |
031:014 | Ye
shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth
it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that
soul shall be cut off from among his people. |
031:015 | Six
days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the
LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to
death. |
031:016 | Wherefore
the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout
their generations, for a perpetual covenant. |
031:017 | It
is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the
LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
|
031:018 | And
he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount
Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of
God. |
|
032:001
| And
when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people
gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods,
which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up
out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him. | 032:002 | And
Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears
of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
|
032:003 | And
all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and
brought them unto Aaron. |
032:004 | And
he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after
he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which
brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. |
032:005 | And
when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation,
and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD. |
032:006 | And
they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought
peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to
play. |
032:007 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest
out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves: |
032:008 | They
have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have
made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto,
and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the
land of Egypt. |
032:009 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked
people: |
032:010 | Now
therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I
may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation. |
032:011 | And
Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot
against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt
with great power, and with a mighty hand? |
032:012 | Wherefore
should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to
slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth?
Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. |
032:013 | Remember
Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own
self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven,
and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they
shall inherit it for ever. |
032:014 | And
the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. |
032:015 | And
Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony
were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side
and on the other were they written. |
032:016 | And
the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven
upon the tables. |
032:017 | And
when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses,
There is a noise of war in the camp. |
032:018 | And
he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it
the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing
do I hear. |
032:019 | And
it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf,
and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of
his hands, and brake them beneath the mount. |
032:020 | And
he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground
it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel
drink of it. |
032:021 | And
Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought
so great a sin upon them? |
032:022 | And
Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people,
that they are set on mischief. |
032:023 | For
they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this
Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what
is become of him. |
032:024 | And
I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave
it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf. |
032:025 | And
when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto
their shame among their enemies:) |
032:026 | Then
Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let
him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto
him. |
032:027 | And
he said unto them, Thus saith 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 slay
every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
|
032:028 | And
the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of
the people that day about three thousand men. |
032:029 | For
Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today to the LORD, even every man upon
his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this
day. |
032:030 | And
it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned
a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make
an atonement for your sin. |
032:031 | And
Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great
sin, and have made them gods of gold. |
032:032 | Yet
now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out
of thy book which thou hast written. |
032:033 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot
out of my book. |
032:034 | Therefore
now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold,
mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will
visit their sin upon them. |
032:035 | And
the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
|
|
033:001
| And
the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up hence, thou and the people which
thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware
unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it:
| 033:002 | And
I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite,
and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: |
033:003 | Unto
a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee;
for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way. |
033:004 | And
when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put
on him his ornaments. |
033:005 | For
the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked
people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee:
therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto
thee. |
033:006 | And
the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount
Horeb. |
033:007 | And
Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the
camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass,
that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation,
which was without the camp. |
033:008 | And
it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people
rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until
he was gone into the tabernacle. |
033:009 | And
it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended,
and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. |
033:010 | 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. |
033:011 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend.
And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun,
a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle. |
033:012 | And
Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and
thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said,
I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. |
033:013 | Now
therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy
way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider
that this nation is thy people. |
033:014 | And
he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. |
033:015 | And
he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. |
033:016 | For
wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy
sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and
thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth. |
033:017 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken:
for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name. |
033:018 | And
he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. |
033:019 | And
he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim
the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious,
and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy. |
033:020 | And
he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
|
033:021 | And
the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a
rock: |
033:022 | And
it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a
clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: |
033:023 | And
I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall
not be seen. |
|
034:001
| And
the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first:
and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables,
which thou brakest. | 034:002 | And
be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present
thyself there to me in the top of the mount. |
034:003 | And
no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all
the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount. |
034:004 | And
he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in
the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and
took in his hand the two tables of stone. |
034:005 | And
the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the
name of the LORD. |
034:006 | And
the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful
and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, |
034:007 | Keeping
mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that
will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon
the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth
generation. |
034:008 | And
Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. |
034:009 | And
he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O LORD, let my LORD, I pray
thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity
and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance. |
034:010 | And
he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels,
such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the
people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible
thing that I will do with thee. |
034:011 | Observe
thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the
Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite,
and the Jebusite. |
034:012 | Take
heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land
whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee: |
034:013 | But
ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
|
034:014 | For
thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a
jealous God: |
034:015 | Lest
thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring
after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and
thou eat of his sacrifice; |
034:016 | And
thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring
after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods. |
034:017 | Thou
shalt make thee no molten gods. |
034:018 | The
feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened
bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month
Abib thou camest out from Egypt. |
034:019 | All
that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether
ox or sheep, that is male. |
034:020 | But
the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him
not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt
redeem. And none shall appear before me empty. |
034:021 | Six
days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time
and in harvest thou shalt rest. |
034:022 | And
thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest,
and the feast of ingathering at the year's end. |
034:023 | Thrice
in the year shall all your menchildren appear before the LORD God, the God
of Israel. |
034:024 | For
I will cast out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall
any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy
God thrice in the year. |
034:025 | Thou
shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice
of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning. |
034:026 | The
first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the
LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. |
034:027 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these
words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel. |
034:028 | And
he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat
bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant,
the ten commandments. |
034:029 | And
it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables
of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist
not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. |
034:030 | And
when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his
face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him. |
034:031 | And
Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned
unto him: and Moses talked with them. |
034:032 | And
afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment
all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai. |
034:033 | And
till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face. |
034:034 | 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 spake unto the children of Israel that
which he was commanded. |
034:035 | And
the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face
shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak
with him. |
|
035:001
| And
Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of Israel together, and
said unto them, These are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye
should do them. | 035:002 | Six
days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy
day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put
to death. |
035:003 | Ye
shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day. |
035:004 | And
Moses spake unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, This
is the thing which the LORD commanded, saying, |
035:005 | Take
ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart,
let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass, |
035:006 | And
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, |
035:007 | And
rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood, |
035:008 | And
oil for the light, and spices for anointing oil, and for the sweet incense,
|
035:009 | And
onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the breastplate. |
035:010 | And
every wise hearted among you shall come, and make all that the LORD hath commanded;
|
035:011 | The
tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his taches, and his boards, his bars,
his pillars, and his sockets, |
035:012 | The
ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,
|
035:013 | The
table, and his staves, and all his vessels, and the shewbread, |
035:014 | The
candlestick also for the light, and his furniture, and his lamps, with the
oil for the light, |
035:015 | And
the incense altar, and his staves, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense,
and the hanging for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle, |
035:016 | The
altar of burnt offering, with his brasen grate, his staves, and all his vessels,
the laver and his foot, |
035:017 | The
hangings of the court, his pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for
the door of the court, |
035:018 | The
pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the court, and their cords, |
035:019 | 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.
|
035:020 | And
all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the presence of
Moses. |
035:021 | And
they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one 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. |
035:022 | 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 unto the LORD. |
035:023 | And
every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen,
and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them. |
035:024 | Every
one that did offer 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. |
035:025 | And
all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought
that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and
of fine linen. |
035:026 | And
all the women whose heart stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair. |
035:027 | And
the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for
the breastplate; |
035:028 | And
spice, and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the sweet
incense. |
035:029 | The
children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the LORD, every man and
woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which
the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses. |
035:030 | And
Moses said unto the children of Israel, See, the LORD hath called by name Bezaleel
the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; |
035:031 | And
he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and
in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship; |
035:032 | And
to devise curious works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, |
035:033 | And
in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to make any
manner of cunning work. |
035:034 | And
he hath put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. |
035:035 | Them
hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of work, of the engraver,
and of the cunning workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple,
in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any
work, and of those that devise cunning work. |
|
036:001
| Then
wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD
put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the
service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded. | 036:002 | And
Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart
the LORD had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up to come
unto the work to do it: |
036:003 | And
they received of Moses all the offering, which the children of Israel had brought
for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought
yet unto him free offerings every morning. |
036:004 | And
all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man
from his work which they made; |
036:005 | And
they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the
service of the work, which the LORD commanded to make. |
036:006 | And
Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the
camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering
of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing. |
036:007 | For
the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
|
036:008 | And
every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the tabernacle made
ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with
cherubims of cunning work made he them. |
036:009 | The
length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain
four cubits: the curtains were all of one size. |
036:010 | And
he coupled the five curtains one unto another: and the other five curtains
he coupled one unto another. |
036:011 | And
he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling:
likewise he made in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling
of the second. |
036:012 | Fifty
loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain
which was in the coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to another.
|
036:013 | And
he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with
the taches: so it became one tabernacle. |
036:014 | And
he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains
he made them. |
036:015 | The
length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of
one curtain: the eleven curtains were of one size. |
036:016 | And
he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves. |
036:017 | And
he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge of the curtain in the coupling,
and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.
|
036:018 | And
he made fifty taches of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be
one. |
036:019 | And
he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of
badgers' skins above that. |
036:020 | And
he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing up. |
036:021 | The
length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and
a half. |
036:022 | One
board had two tenons, equally distant one from another: thus did he make for
all the boards of the tabernacle. |
036:023 | And
he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side southward:
|
036:024 | And
forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards; two sockets under
one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two
tenons. |
036:025 | And
for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he
made twenty boards, |
036:026 | And
their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets
under another board. |
036:027 | And
for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards. |
036:028 | And
two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides. |
036:029 | And
they were coupled beneath, and coupled together at the head thereof, to one
ring: thus he did to both of them in both the corners. |
036:030 | And
there were eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver,
under every board two sockets. |
036:031 | And
he made bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
|
036:032 | 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. |
036:033 | And
he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the
other. |
036:034 | And
he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places
for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold. |
036:035 | And
he made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with
cherubims made he it of cunning work. |
036:036 | And
he made thereunto four pillars of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold:
their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver. |
036:037 | And
he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine twined linen, of needlework; |
036:038 | And
the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their chapiters and
their fillets with gold: but their five sockets were of brass. |
|
037:001
| And
Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length
of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the
height of it: | 037:002 | And
he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold
to it round about. |
037:003 | And
he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even
two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.
|
037:004 | And
he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold. |
037:005 | And
he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
|
037:006 | And
he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof,
and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof. |
037:007 | And
he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the
two ends of the mercy seat; |
037:008 | One
cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that
side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
|
037:009 | And
the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings
over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward
were the faces of the cherubims. |
037:010 | And
he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was the length thereof, and a
cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof: |
037:011 | And
he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.
|
037:012 | Also
he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth round about; and made a crown
of gold for the border thereof round about. |
037:013 | And
he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners
that were in the four feet thereof. |
037:014 | Over
against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.
|
037:015 | And
he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the
table. |
037:016 | And
he made the vessels which were upon the table, his dishes, and his spoons,
and his bowls, and his covers to cover withal, of pure gold. |
037:017 | And
he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick;
his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the
same: |
037:018 | And
six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick
out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the
other side thereof: |
037:019 | Three
bowls made after the fashion of almonds in one branch, a knop and a flower;
and three bowls made like almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so
throughout the six branches going out of the candlestick. |
037:020 | And
in the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, his knops, and his flowers:
|
037:021 | And
a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the
same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches
going out of it. |
037:022 | Their
knops and their branches were of the same: all of it was one beaten work of
pure gold. |
037:023 | And
he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers, and his snuffdishes, of pure gold.
|
037:024 | Of
a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the vessels thereof. |
037:025 | And
he made the incense altar of shittim wood: the length of it was a cubit, and
the breadth of it a cubit; it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height
of it; the horns thereof were of the same. |
037:026 | And
he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it, and the sides thereof round
about, and the horns of it: also he made unto it a crown of gold round about.
|
037:027 | And
he made two rings of gold for it under the crown thereof, by the two corners
of it, upon the two sides thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal.
|
037:028 | And
he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold. |
037:029 | And
he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, according
to the work of the apothecary. |
|
038:001
| And
he made the altar of burnt offering of shittim wood: five cubits was the length
thereof, and five cubits the breadth thereof; it was foursquare; and three
cubits the height thereof. | 038:002 | And
he made the horns thereof on the four corners of it; the horns thereof were
of the same: and he overlaid it with brass. |
038:003 | And
he made all the vessels of the altar, the pots, and the shovels, and the basons,
and the fleshhooks, and the firepans: all the vessels thereof made he of brass.
|
038:004 | And
he made for the altar a brasen grate of network under the compass thereof beneath
unto the midst of it. |
038:005 | And
he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for
the staves. |
038:006 | And
he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with brass. |
038:007 | And
he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar, to bear it withal;
he made the altar hollow with boards. |
038:008 | And
he made the laver of brass, and the foot of it of brass, of the lookingglasses
of the women assembling, which assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation. |
038:009 | And
he made the court: on the south side southward the hangings of the court were
of fine twined linen, an hundred cubits: |
038:010 | Their
pillars were twenty, and their brasen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars
and their fillets were of silver. |
038:011 | And
for the north side the hangings were an hundred cubits, their pillars were
twenty, and their sockets of brass twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their
fillets of silver. |
038:012 | And
for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their
sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver. |
038:013 | And
for the east side eastward fifty cubits. |
038:014 | The
hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits; their pillars three,
and their sockets three. |
038:015 | And
for the other side of the court gate, on this hand and that hand, were hangings
of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. |
038:016 | All
the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen. |
038:017 | And
the sockets for the pillars were of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their
fillets of silver; and the overlaying of their chapiters of silver; and all
the pillars of the court were filleted with silver. |
038:018 | And
the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework, of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the
height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court.
|
038:019 | And
their pillars were four, and their sockets of brass four; their hooks of silver,
and the overlaying of their chapiters and their fillets of silver. |
038:020 | And
all the pins of the tabernacle, and of the court round about, were of brass.
|
038:021 | This
is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was
counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites,
by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest. |
038:022 | And
Bezaleel the son Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that
the LORD commanded Moses. |
038:023 | And
with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and
a cunning workman, and an embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet,
and fine linen. |
038:024 | All
the gold that was occupied for the work in all the work of the holy place,
even the gold of the offering, was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred
and thirty shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary. |
038:025 | And
the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was an hundred talents,
and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the
shekel of the sanctuary: |
038:026 | A
bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary,
for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for
six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men. |
038:027 | And
of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary, and
the sockets of the vail; an hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent
for a socket. |
038:028 | And
of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he made hooks for the
pillars, and overlaid their chapiters, and filleted them. |
038:029 | And
the brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two thousand and four hundred
shekels. |
038:030 | And
therewith he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and the brasen altar, and the brasen grate for it, and all the vessels of the
altar, |
038:031 | And
the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate, and
all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about.
|
|
039:001
| And
of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service
in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded
Moses. | 039:002 | And
he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
|
039:003 | And
they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to work it
in the blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen,
with cunning work. |
039:004 | They
made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it together: by the two edges was it
coupled together. |
039:005 | And
the curious girdle of his ephod, that was upon it, was of the same, according
to the work thereof; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined
linen; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:006 | And
they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold, graven, as signets are
graven, with the names of the children of Israel. |
039:007 | And
he put them on the shoulders of the ephod, that they should be stones for a
memorial to the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:008 | And
he made the breastplate of cunning work, like the work of the ephod; of gold,
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen. |
039:009 | It
was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span was the length thereof,
and a span the breadth thereof, being doubled. |
039:010 | And
they set in it four rows of stones: the first row was a sardius, a topaz, and
a carbuncle: this was the first row. |
039:011 | And
the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond. |
039:012 | And
the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst. |
039:013 | And
the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper: they were inclosed in ouches
of gold in their inclosings. |
039:014 | And
the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according
to their names, like the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according
to the twelve tribes. |
039:015 | And
they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathen work of pure
gold. |
039:016 | And
they made two ouches of gold, and two gold rings; and put the two rings in
the two ends of the breastplate. |
039:017 | And
they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the
breastplate. |
039:018 | And
the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches, and
put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it. |
039:019 | And
they made two rings of gold, and put them on the two ends of the breastplate,
upon the border of it, which was on the side of the ephod inward. |
039:020 | And
they made two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the ephod
underneath, toward the forepart of it, over against the other coupling thereof,
above the curious girdle of the ephod. |
039:021 | And
they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the ephod with
a lace of blue, that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and
that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as the LORD commanded
Moses. |
039:022 | And
he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue. |
039:023 | And
there was an hole in the midst of the robe, as the hole of an habergeon, with
a band round about the hole, that it should not rend. |
039:024 | And
they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and twined linen. |
039:025 | And
they made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon
the hem of the robe, round about between the pomegranates; |
039:026 | A
bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, round about the hem of the
robe to minister in; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:027 | And
they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for his sons, |
039:028 | And
a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches
of fine twined linen, |
039:029 | And
a girdle of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, of needlework;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:030 | And
they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing,
like to the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. |
039:031 | And
they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten it on high upon the mitre; as the
LORD commanded Moses. |
039:032 | Thus
was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished:
and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses,
so did they. |
039:033 | And
they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the tent, and all his furniture, his
taches, his boards, his bars, and his pillars, and his sockets, |
039:034 | And
the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the covering of badgers' skins, and
the vail of the covering, |
039:035 | The
ark of the testimony, and the staves thereof, and the mercy seat, |
039:036 | The
table, and all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread, |
039:037 | The
pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof, even with the lamps to be set in
order, and all the vessels thereof, and the oil for light, |
039:038 | And
the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging
for the tabernacle door, |
039:039 | The
brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his staves, and all his vessels, the
laver and his foot, |
039:040 | The
hangings of the court, his pillars, and his sockets, and the hanging for the
court gate, his cords, and his pins, and all the vessels of the service of
the tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation, |
039:041 | The
cloths of service to do service in the holy place, and the holy garments for
Aaron the priest, and his sons' garments, to minister in the priest's office.
|
039:042 | According
to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel made all the
work. |
039:043 | And
Moses did look upon all the work, and, behold, they had done it as the LORD
had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them. |
|
040:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 040:002 | On
the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent
of the congregation. |
040:003 | And
thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the
vail. |
040:004 | And
thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set
in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps
thereof. |
040:005 | And
thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony,
and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle. |
040:006 | And
thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle
of the tent of the congregation. |
040:007 | And
thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar,
and shalt put water therein. |
040:008 | And
thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court
gate. |
040:009 | And
thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that
is therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall
be holy. |
040:010 | And
thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his vessels, and
sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy. |
040:011 | And
thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it. |
040:012 | And
thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, and wash them with water. |
040:013 | And
thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him;
that he may minister unto me in the priest's office. |
040:014 | And
thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats: |
040:015 | And
thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister
unto me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting
priesthood throughout their generations. |
040:016 | Thus
did Moses: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he. |
040:017 | And
it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first day of
the month, that the tabernacle was reared up. |
040:018 | And
Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set up the boards
thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars. |
040:019 | And
he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the
tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:020 | And
he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark,
and put the mercy seat above upon the ark: |
040:021 | And
he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering,
and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:022 | And
he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle
northward, without the vail. |
040:023 | And
he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded
Moses. |
040:024 | And
he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table,
on the side of the tabernacle southward. |
040:025 | And
he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:026 | And
he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail: |
040:027 | And
he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:028 | And
he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle. |
040:029 | And
he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle of the tent
of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:030 | And
he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put
water there, to wash withal. |
040:031 | And
Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat: |
040:032 | When
they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the
altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:033 | And
he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up
the hanging of the court gate. So Moses finished the work. |
040:034 | Then
a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled
the tabernacle. |
040:035 | And
Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the
cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. |
040:036 | And
when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel
went onward in all their journeys: |
040:037 | But
if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it
was taken up. |
040:038 | For
the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by
night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
