| 001:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of
the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year
after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, |
| 001:002 | Take
ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families,
by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by
their polls; |
| 001:003 | From
twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel:
thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies. |
| 001:004 | And
with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of the house of
his fathers. |
| 001:005 | And
these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: of the tribe of Reuben;
Elizur the son of Shedeur. |

| 001:017 | And
Moses and Aaron took these men which are expressed by their names: |
| 001:018 | And
they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second
month, and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by the house
of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old
and upward, by their polls. |
| 001:019 | As
the LORD commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai. |
| 001:020 | And

| 001:043 | Those
that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Naphtali, were fifty and three
thousand and four hundred. |
| 001:044 | These
are those that were numbered, which Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes
of Israel, being twelve men: each one was for the house of his fathers. |
| 001:045 | So
were all those that were numbered of the children of Israel, by the house of
their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth
to war in Israel; |
| 001:046 | Even
all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and
five hundred and fifty. |
| 001:047 | But
the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
|
| 001:048 | For
the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying, |
| 001:049 | Only
thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among
the children of Israel: |
| 001:050 | But
thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all
the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear
the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it,
and shall encamp round about the tabernacle. |
| 001:051 | And
when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when
the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger
that cometh nigh shall be put to death. |
| 001:052 | And
the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp,
and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts. |
| 001:053 | But
the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there
be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites
shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony. |
| 001:054 | And
the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses,
so did they. |
|
| 002:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, | | 002:002 | Every
man of the children of Israel shall pitch by his own standard, with the ensign
of their father's house: far off about the tabernacle of the congregation shall
they pitch. |
| 002:003 | And
on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the standard of
the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies: and Nahshon the son of Amminadab
shall be captain of the children of Judah. |
| 002:004 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and fourteen
thousand and six hundred. |
| 002:005 | And
those that do pitch next unto him shall be the tribe of Issachar: and Nethaneel
the son of Zuar shall be captain of the children of Issachar. |
| 002:006 | And
his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and four thousand
and four hundred. |
| 002:007 | Then
the tribe of Zebulun: and Eliab the son of Helon shall be captain of the children
of Zebulun. |
| 002:008 | And
his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and seven thousand
and four hundred. |
| 002:009 | All
that were numbered in the camp of Judah were an hundred thousand and fourscore
thousand and six thousand and four hundred, throughout their armies. These
shall first set forth. |
| 002:010 | On
the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their
armies: and the captain of the children of Reuben shall be Elizur the son of
Shedeur. |
| 002:011 | And
his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were forty and six thousand
and five hundred. |
| 002:012 | And
those which pitch by him shall be the tribe of Simeon: and the captain of the
children of Simeon shall be Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. |
| 002:013 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and nine thousand
and three hundred. |
| 002:014 | Then
the tribe of Gad: and the captain of the sons of Gad shall be Eliasaph the
son of Reuel. |
| 002:015 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and five thousand
and six hundred and fifty. |
| 002:016 | All
that were numbered in the camp of Reuben were an hundred thousand and fifty
and one thousand and four hundred and fifty, throughout their armies. And they
shall set forth in the second rank. |
| 002:017 | Then
the tabernacle of the congregation shall set forward with the camp of the Levites
in the midst of the camp: as they encamp, so shall they set forward, every
man in his place by their standards. |
| 002:018 | On
the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their
armies: and the captain of the sons of Ephraim shall be Elishama the son of
Ammihud. |
| 002:019 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty thousand and five
hundred. |
| 002:020 | And
by him shall be the tribe of Manasseh: and the captain of the children of Manasseh
shall be Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. |
| 002:021 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and two thousand
and two hundred. |
| 002:022 | Then
the tribe of Benjamin: and the captain of the sons of Benjamin shall be Abidan
the son of Gideoni. |
| 002:023 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and five thousand
and four hundred. |
| 002:024 | All
that were numbered of the camp of Ephraim were an hundred thousand and eight
thousand and an hundred, throughout their armies. And they shall go forward
in the third rank. |
| 002:025 | The
standard of the camp of Dan shall be on the north side by their armies: and
the captain of the children of Dan shall be Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
|
| 002:026 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and two thousand
and seven hundred. |
| 002:027 | And
those that encamp by him shall be the tribe of Asher: and the captain of the
children of Asher shall be Pagiel the son of Ocran. |
| 002:028 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and one thousand
and five hundred. |
| 002:029 | Then
the tribe of Naphtali: and the captain of the children of Naphtali shall be
Ahira the son of Enan. |
| 002:030 | And
his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and three thousand
and four hundred. |
| 002:031 | All
they that were numbered in the camp of Dan were an hundred thousand and fifty
and seven thousand and six hundred. They shall go hindmost with their standards.
|
| 002:032 | These
are those which were numbered of the children of Israel by the house of their
fathers: all those that were numbered of the camps throughout their hosts were
six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty. |
| 002:033 | But
the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded
Moses. |
| 002:034 | And
the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses:
so they pitched by their standards, and so they set forward, every one after
their families, according to the house of their fathers. |
|
| 003:001
| These
also are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spake
with Moses in mount Sinai. | | 003:002 | And
these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar,
and Ithamar. |
| 003:003 | These
are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were anointed, whom he
consecrated to minister in the priest's office. |
| 003:004 | And
Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange fire before
the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar
and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the sight of Aaron their father.
|
| 003:005 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 003:006 | Bring
the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the priest, that they
may minister unto him. |
| 003:007 | And
they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before
the tabernacle of the congregation, to do the service of the tabernacle. |
| 003:008 | And
they shall keep all the instruments of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
|
| 003:009 | And
thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given
unto him out of the children of Israel. |
| 003:010 | And
thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall wait on their priest's
office: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death. |
| 003:011 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 003:012 | And
I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead
of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel:
therefore the Levites shall be mine; |
| 003:013 | Because
all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn in
the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man
and beast: mine shall they be: I am the LORD. |
| 003:014 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying, |
| 003:015 | Number
the children of Levi after the house of their fathers, by their families: every
male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them. |
| 003:016 | And
Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD, as he was commanded.
|
| 003:017 | And
these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.
|
| 003:018 | And
these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families; Libni, and Shimei.
|
| 003:019 | And
the sons of Kohath by their families; Amram, and Izehar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
|
| 003:020 | And
the sons of Merari by their families; Mahli, and Mushi. These are the families
of the Levites according to the house of their fathers. |
| 003:021 | Of
Gershon was the family of the Libnites, and the family of the Shimites: these
are the families of the Gershonites. |
| 003:022 | Those
that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from
a month old and upward, even those that were numbered of them were seven thousand
and five hundred. |
| 003:023 | The
families of the Gershonites shall pitch behind the tabernacle westward. |
| 003:024 | And
the chief of the house of the father of the Gershonites shall be Eliasaph the
son of Lael. |
| 003:025 | And
the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation shall
be the tabernacle, and the tent, the covering thereof, and the hanging for
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, |
| 003:026 | And
the hangings of the court, and the curtain for the door of the court, which
is by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about, and the cords of it for
all the service thereof. |
| 003:027 | And
of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family of the Izeharites,
and the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites: these are
the families of the Kohathites. |
| 003:028 | In
the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were eight thousand
and six hundred, keeping the charge of the sanctuary. |
| 003:029 | The
families of the sons of Kohath shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle southward.
|
| 003:030 | And
the chief of the house of the father of the families of the Kohathites shall
be Elizaphan the son of Uzziel. |
| 003:031 | And
their charge shall be the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the
altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary wherewith they minister, and the hanging,
and all the service thereof. |
| 003:032 | And
Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be chief over the chief of the Levites,
and have the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary. |
| 003:033 | Of
Merari was the family of the Mahlites, and the family of the Mushites: these
are the families of Merari. |
| 003:034 | And
those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males,
from a month old and upward, were six thousand and two hundred. |
| 003:035 | And
the chief of the house of the father of the families of Merari was Zuriel the
son of Abihail: these shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle northward.
|
| 003:036 | And
under the custody and charge of the sons of Merari shall be the boards of the
tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the sockets
thereof, and all the vessels thereof, and all that serveth thereto, |
| 003:037 | And
the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and
their cords. |
| 003:038 | But
those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle
of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping
the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the
stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death. |
| 003:039 | All
that were numbered of the Levites, which Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment
of the LORD, throughout their families, all the males from a month old and
upward, were twenty and two thousand. |
| 003:040 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Number all the firstborn of the males of the children
of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
|
| 003:041 | And
thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am the LORD) instead of all the firstborn
among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all
the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel. |
| 003:042 | And
Moses numbered, as the LORD commanded him, all the firstborn among the children
of Israel. |
| 003:043 | And
all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month old and upward,
of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred
and threescore and thirteen. |
| 003:044 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 003:045 | Take
the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and
the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be
mine: I am the LORD. |
| 003:046 | And
for those that are to be redeemed of the two hundred and threescore and thirteen
of the firstborn of the children of Israel, which are more than the Levites;
|
| 003:047 | Thou
shalt even take five shekels apiece by the poll, after the shekel of the sanctuary
shalt thou take them: (the shekel is twenty gerahs:) |
| 003:048 | And
thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them is to be redeemed,
unto Aaron and to his sons. |
| 003:049 | And
Moses took the redemption money of them that were over and above them that
were redeemed by the Levites: |
| 003:050 | Of
the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the money; a thousand three
hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:
|
| 003:051 | And
Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons,
according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses. |
|
| 004:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, | | 004:002 | Take
the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, after their families,
by the house of their fathers, |
| 004:003 | From
thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into
the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 004:004 | This
shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation,
about the most holy things: |
| 004:005 | And
when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall
take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of testimony with it: |
| 004:006 | And
shall put thereon the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread over it
a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves thereof. |
| 004:007 | And
upon the table of shewbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon
the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover withal: and
the continual bread shall be thereon: |
| 004:008 | And
they shall spread upon them a cloth of scarlet, and cover the same with a covering
of badgers' skins, and shall put in the staves thereof. |
| 004:009 | And
they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the light, and
his lamps, and his tongs, and his snuffdishes, and all the oil vessels thereof,
wherewith they minister unto it: |
| 004:010 | And
they shall put it and all the vessels thereof within a covering of badgers'
skins, and shall put it upon a bar. |
| 004:011 | And
upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with
a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the staves thereof: |
| 004:012 | And
they shall take all the instruments of ministry, wherewith they minister in
the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering
of badgers' skins, and shall put them on a bar: |
| 004:013 | And
they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth thereon:
|
| 004:014 | And
they shall put upon it all the vessels thereof, wherewith they minister about
it, even the censers, the fleshhooks, and the shovels, and the basons, all
the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread upon it a covering of badgers'
skins, and put to the staves of it. |
| 004:015 | And
when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all
the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the
sons of Kohath shall come to bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing,
lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
| 004:016 | And
to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertaineth the oil for
the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing
oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that therein is, in
the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof. |
| 004:017 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying, |
| 004:018 | Cut
ye not off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites:
|
| 004:019 | But
thus do unto them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach unto
the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them every
one to his service and to his burden: |
| 004:020 | But
they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, lest they die.
|
| 004:021 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 004:022 | Take
also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout the houses of their fathers,
by their families; |
| 004:023 | From
thirty years old and upward until fifty years old shalt thou number them; all
that enter in to perform the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the
congregation. |
| 004:024 | This
is the service of the families of the Gershonites, to serve, and for burdens:
|
| 004:025 | And
they shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of the congregation,
his covering, and the covering of the badgers' skins that is above upon it,
and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, |
| 004:026 | And
the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the door of the gate of the
court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar round about, and their cords,
and all the instruments of their service, and all that is made for them: so
shall they serve. |
| 004:027 | At
the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons
of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all their service: and ye
shall appoint unto them in charge all their burdens. |
| 004:028 | This
is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of
the congregation: and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son
of Aaron the priest. |
| 004:029 | As
for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them after their families, by the
house of their fathers; |
| 004:030 | From
thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old shalt thou number them,
every one that entereth into the service, to do the work of the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
| 004:031 | And
this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tabernacle
of the congregation; the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and
the pillars thereof, and sockets thereof, |
| 004:032 | And
the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and
their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service: and by
name ye shall reckon the instruments of the charge of their burden. |
| 004:033 | This
is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their
service, in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the hand of Ithamar the
son of Aaron the priest. |
| 004:034 | And
Moses and Aaron and the chief of the congregation numbered the sons of the
Kohathites after their families, and after the house of their fathers, |
| 004:035 | From
thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth
into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation: |
| 004:036 | And
those that were numbered of them by their families were two thousand seven
hundred and fifty. |
| 004:037 | These
were they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all that might
do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, which Moses and Aaron did
number according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses. |
| 004:038 | And
those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, throughout their families,
and by the house of their fathers, |
| 004:039 | From
thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth
into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation, |
| 004:040 | Even
those that were numbered of them, throughout their families, by the house of
their fathers, were two thousand and six hundred and thirty. |
| 004:041 | These
are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, of all
that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and
Aaron did number according to the commandment of the LORD. |
| 004:042 | And
those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, throughout
their families, by the house of their fathers, |
| 004:043 | From
thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth
into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation, |
| 004:044 | Even
those that were numbered of them after their families, were three thousand
and two hundred. |
| 004:045 | These
be those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses
and Aaron numbered according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
|
| 004:046 | All
those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chief
of Israel numbered, after their families, and after the house of their fathers,
|
| 004:047 | From
thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that came
to do the service of the ministry, and the service of the burden in the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
| 004:048 | Even
those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred and
fourscore, |
| 004:049 | According
to the commandment of the LORD they were numbered by the hand of Moses, every
one according to his service, and according to his burden: thus were they numbered
of him, as the LORD commanded Moses. |
|
| 005:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 005:002 | Command
the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every
one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead: |
| 005:003 | Both
male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that
they defile not their camps, in the midst whereof I dwell. |
| 005:004 | And
the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp: as the LORD
spake unto Moses, so did the children of Israel. |
| 005:005 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 005:006 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that
men commit, to do a trespass against the LORD, and that person be guilty; |
| 005:007 | Then
they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense
his trespass with the principal thereof, and add unto it the fifth part thereof,
and give it unto him against whom he hath trespassed. |
| 005:008 | But
if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass unto, let the trespass
be recompensed unto the LORD, even to the priest; beside the ram of the atonement,
whereby an atonement shall be made for him. |
| 005:009 | And
every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they
bring unto the priest, shall be his. |
| 005:010 | And
every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest,
it shall be his. |
| 005:011 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 005:012 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside,
and commit a trespass against him, |
| 005:013 | And
a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and
be kept close, and she be defiled, and there be no witness against her, neither
she be taken with the manner; |
| 005:014 | And
the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she
be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of
his wife, and she be not defiled: |
| 005:015 | Then
shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering
for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon
it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering
of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance. |
| 005:016 | And
the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD: |
| 005:017 | And
the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that
is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the
water: |
| 005:018 | And
the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and uncover the woman's head,
and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering:
and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse:
|
| 005:019 | And
the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have
lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness with another
instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the
curse: |
| 005:020 | But
if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy husband, and if thou be defiled,
and some man have lain with thee beside thine husband: |
| 005:021 | Then
the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall
say unto the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people,
when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell; |
| 005:022 | And
this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly
to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen. |
| 005:023 | And
the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with
the bitter water: |
| 005:024 | And
he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth the curse:
and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter.
|
| 005:025 | Then
the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's hand, and shall
wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it upon the altar: |
| 005:026 | And
the priest shall take an handful of the offering, even the memorial thereof,
and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the
water. |
| 005:027 | And
when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that,
if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water
that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly
shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among
her people. |
| 005:028 | And
if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall
conceive seed. |
| 005:029 | This
is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to another instead of her
husband, and is defiled; |
| 005:030 | Or
when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he be jealous over his wife,
and shall set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon
her all this law. |
| 005:031 | Then
shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.
|
|
| 006:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 006:002 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall
separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto
the LORD: |
| 006:003 | He
shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar
of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes,
nor eat moist grapes, or dried. |
| 006:004 | All
the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree,
from the kernels even to the husk. |
| 006:005 | All
the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head:
until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD,
he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. |
| 006:006 | All
the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead
body. |
| 006:007 | He
shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother,
or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration of his God is upon
his head. |
| 006:008 | All
the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD. |
| 006:009 | And
if any man die very suddenly by him, and he hath defiled the head of his consecration;
then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day
shall he shave it. |
| 006:010 | And
on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the
priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: |
| 006:011 | And
the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt
offering, and make an atonement for him, for that he sinned by the dead, and
shall hallow his head that same day. |
| 006:012 | And
he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his separation, and shall bring
a lamb of the first year for a trespass offering: but the days that were before
shall be lost, because his separation was defiled. |
| 006:013 | And
this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled:
he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: |
| 006:014 | And
he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he lamb of the first year without
blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish
for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for peace offerings, |
| 006:015 | And
a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and wafers
of unleavened bread anointed with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink
offerings. |
| 006:016 | And
the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall offer his sin offering,
and his burnt offering: |
| 006:017 | And
he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, with
the basket of unleavened bread: the priest shall offer also his meat offering,
and his drink offering. |
| 006:018 | And
the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation,
and put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
|
| 006:019 | And
the priest shall take the sodden shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake
out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them upon the hands
of the Nazarite, after the hair of his separation is shaven: |
| 006:020 | And
the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: this is holy
for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoulder: and after that the
Nazarite may drink wine. |
| 006:021 | This
is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of his offering unto the LORD
for his separation, beside that that his hand shall get: according to the vow
which he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation. |
| 006:022 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 006:023 | Speak
unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children
of Israel, saying unto them, |
| 006:024 | The
LORD bless thee, and keep thee: |
| 006:025 | The
LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: |
| 006:026 | The
LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. |
| 006:027 | And
they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
|
|
| 007:001
| And
it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up the tabernacle, and
had anointed it, and sanctified it, and all the instruments thereof, both the
altar and all the vessels thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them;
| | 007:002 | That
the princes of Israel, heads of the house of their fathers, who were the princes
of the tribes, and were over them that were numbered, offered: |
| 007:003 | And
they brought their offering before the LORD, six covered wagons, and twelve
oxen; a wagon for two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they brought
them before the tabernacle. |
| 007:004 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 007:005 | Take
it of them, that they may be to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation;
and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, to every man according to his service.
|
| 007:006 | And
Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites. |
| 007:007 | Two
wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon, according to their service:
|
| 007:008 | And
four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Merari, according unto
their service, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. |
| 007:009 | But
unto the sons of Kohath he gave none: because the service of the sanctuary
belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders. |
| 007:010 | And
the princes offered for dedicating of the altar in the day that it was anointed,
even the princes offered their offering before the altar. |
| 007:011 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, They shall offer their offering, each prince on his
day, for the dedicating of the altar. |

| 008:006 | Take
the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them. |
| 008:007 | And
thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purifying
upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes,
and so make themselves clean. |
| 008:008 | Then
let them take a young bullock with his meat offering, even fine flour mingled
with oil, and another young bullock shalt thou take for a sin offering. |
| 008:009 | And
thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and
thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel together: |
| 008:010 | And
thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children of Israel shall
put their hands upon the Levites: |
| 008:011 | And
Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an offering of the children
of Israel, that they may execute the service of the LORD. |
| 008:012 | And
the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks: and thou
shalt offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering,
unto the LORD, to make an atonement for the Levites. |
| 008:013 | And
thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them
for an offering unto the LORD. |
| 008:014 | Thus
shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel: and the
Levites shall be mine. |
| 008:015 | And
after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of the tabernacle of the
congregation: and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them for an offering.
|
| 008:016 | For
they are wholly given unto me from among the children of Israel; instead of
such as open every womb, even instead of the firstborn of all the children
of Israel, have I taken them unto me. |
| 008:017 | For
all the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine, both man and beast: on
the day that I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt I sanctified them
for myself. |
| 008:018 | And
I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel. |
| 008:019 | And
I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the
children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle
of the congregation, and to make an atonement for the children of Israel: that
there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel
come nigh unto the sanctuary. |
| 008:020 | And
Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, did to
the Levites according unto all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the
Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them. |
| 008:021 | And
the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered
them as an offering before the LORD; and Aaron made an atonement for them to
cleanse them. |
| 008:022 | And
after that went the Levites in to do their service in the tabernacle of the
congregation before Aaron, and before his sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses
concerning the Levites, so did they unto them. |
| 008:023 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 008:024 | This
is it that belongeth unto the Levites: from twenty and five years old and upward
they shall go in to wait upon the service of the tabernacle of the congregation:
|
| 008:025 | And
from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon the service thereof,
and shall serve no more: |
| 008:026 | But
shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle of the congregation, to
keep the charge, and shall do no service. Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites
touching their charge. |
|
| 009:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of
the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, | | 009:002 | Let
the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season. |
| 009:003 | In
the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his appointed
season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies
thereof, shall ye keep it. |
| 009:004 | And
Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
|
| 009:005 | And
they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in
the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so
did the children of Israel. |
| 009:006 | And
there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they
could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before
Aaron on that day: |
| 009:007 | And
those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore
are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in his appointed
season among the children of Israel? |
| 009:008 | And
Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command
concerning you. |
| 009:009 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 009:010 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity
shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet
he shall keep the passover unto the LORD. |
| 009:011 | The
fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with
unleavened bread and bitter herbs. |
| 009:012 | They
shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according
to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it. |
| 009:013 | But
the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the
passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because
he brought not the offering of the LORD in his appointed season, that man shall
bear his sin. |
| 009:014 | And
if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto the
LORD; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner
thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger,
and for him that was born in the land. |
| 009:015 | And
on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle,
namely, the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle
as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning. |
| 009:016 | So
it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
|
| 009:017 | And
when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children
of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children
of Israel pitched their tents. |
| 009:018 | At
the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment
of the LORD they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they
rested in their tents. |
| 009:019 | And
when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children
of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not. |
| 009:020 | And
so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to
the commandment of the LORD they abode in their tents, and according to the
commandment of the LORD they journeyed. |
| 009:021 | And
so it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the morning, and that the cloud
was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether it was by day or
by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed. |
| 009:022 | Or
whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon
the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the children of Israel abode in their tents,
and journeyed not: but when it was taken up, they journeyed. |
| 009:023 | At
the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and at the commandment
of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment
of the LORD by the hand of Moses. |
|
| 010:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 010:002 | Make
thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou
mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of
the camps. |
| 010:003 | And
when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves
to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 010:004 | And
if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the
thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. |
| 010:005 | When
ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
|
| 010:006 | When
ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side
shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys. |
| 010:007 | But
when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall
not sound an alarm. |
| 010:008 | And
the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall
be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations. |
| 010:009 | And
if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye
shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the
LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies. |
| 010:010 | Also
in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings
of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings,
and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for
a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God. |
| 010:011 | And
it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year,
that the cloud was taken up from off the tabernacle of the testimony. |
| 010:012 | And
the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai;
and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran. |
| 010:013 | And
they first took their journey according to the commandment of the LORD by the
hand of Moses. |
| 010:014 | In
the first place went the standard of the camp of the children of Judah according
to their armies: and over his host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. |
| 010:015 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son
of Zuar. |
| 010:016 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of
Helon. |
| 010:017 | And
the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari
set forward, bearing the tabernacle. |
| 010:018 | And
the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies: and
over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur. |
| 010:019 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son
of Zurishaddai. |
| 010:020 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
|
| 010:021 | And
the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other did set up
the tabernacle against they came. |
| 010:022 | And
the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to
their armies: and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud. |
| 010:023 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son
of Pedahzur. |
| 010:024 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of
Gideoni. |
| 010:025 | And
the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which was the
rereward of all the camps throughout their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer
the son of Ammishaddai. |
| 010:026 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.
|
| 010:027 | And
over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of
Enan. |
| 010:028 | Thus
were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when
they set forward. |
| 010:029 | And
Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law,
We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you:
come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good
concerning Israel. |
| 010:030 | And
he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to
my kindred. |
| 010:031 | And
he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to
encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes. |
| 010:032 | And
it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness the LORD
shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee. |
| 010:033 | And
they departed from the mount of the LORD three days' journey: and the ark of
the covenant of the LORD went before them in the three days' journey, to search
out a resting place for them. |
| 010:034 | And
the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when they went out of the camp.
|
| 010:035 | And
it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, LORD,
and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before
thee. |
| 010:036 | And
when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the many thousands of Israel.
|
|
| 011:001
| And
when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard it;
and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed
them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp. | | 011:002 | And
the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire
was quenched. |
| 011:003 | And
he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt
among them. |
| 011:004 | And
the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of
Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat? |
| 011:005 | We
remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the
melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick: |
| 011:006 | But
now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before
our eyes. |
| 011:007 | And
the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium.
|
| 011:008 | And
the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it
in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it
was as the taste of fresh oil. |
| 011:009 | And
when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it. |
| 011:010 | Then
Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door
of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was
displeased. |
| 011:011 | And
Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore
have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this
people upon me? |
| 011:012 | Have
I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say
unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child,
unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? |
| 011:013 | Whence
should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying,
Give us flesh, that we may eat. |
| 011:014 | I
am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
|
| 011:015 | And
if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found
favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness. |
| 011:016 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel,
whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and
bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there
with thee. |
| 011:017 | And
I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which
is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of
the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone. |
| 011:018 | And
say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow, and ye shall
eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give
us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will
give you flesh, and ye shall eat. |
| 011:019 | Ye
shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty
days; |
| 011:020 | But
even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome
unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which is among you, and have
wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt? |
| 011:021 | And
Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen;
and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
|
| 011:022 | Shall
the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the
fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? |
| 011:023 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD's hand waxed short? thou shalt see now
whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. |
| 011:024 | And
Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the
seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
|
| 011:025 | And
the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that
was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that,
when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease. |
| 011:026 | But
there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and
the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they were
of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied
in the camp. |
| 011:027 | And
there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy
in the camp. |
| 011:028 | And
Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered
and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. |
| 011:029 | And
Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD's
people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them! |
| 011:030 | And
Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. |
| 011:031 | And
there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and
let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as
it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it
were two cubits high upon the face of the earth. |
| 011:032 | And
the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day,
and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and
they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp. |
| 011:033 | And
while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of
the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with
a very great plague. |
| 011:034 | And
he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because there they buried
the people that lusted. |
| 011:035 | And
the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
|
|
| 013:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 013:002 | Send
thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children
of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a
ruler among them. |
| 013:003 | And
Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran:
all those men were heads of the children of Israel. |
| 013:004 | And
these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
|
| 013:005 | Of
the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. |
| 013:006 | Of
the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
| 013:007 | Of
the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. |
| 013:008 | Of
the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun. |
| 013:009 | Of
the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. |
| 013:010 | Of
the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. |
| 013:011 | Of
the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
|
| 013:012 | Of
the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. |
| 013:013 | Of
the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. |
| 013:014 | Of
the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. |
| 013:015 | Of
the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. |
| 013:016 | These
are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called
Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. |
| 013:017 | And
Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you
up this way southward, and go up into the mountain: |
| 013:018 | And
see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they
be strong or weak, few or many; |
| 013:019 | And
what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities
they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds; |
| 013:020 | And
what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein,
or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now
the time was the time of the firstripe grapes. |
| 013:021 | So
they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob,
as men come to Hamath. |
| 013:022 | And
they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and
Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before
Zoan in Egypt.) |
| 013:023 | And
they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with
one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they
brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs. |
| 013:024 | The
place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the
children of Israel cut down from thence. |
| 013:025 | And
they returned from searching of the land after forty days. |
| 013:026 | And
they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the
children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back
word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of
the land. |
| 013:027 | And
they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and
surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it. |
| 013:028 | Nevertheless
the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and
very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there. |
| 013:029 | The
Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites,
and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea,
and by the coast of Jordan. |
| 013:030 | And
Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and
possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. |
| 013:031 | But
the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people;
for they are stronger than we. |
| 013:032 | And
they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the
children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search
it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that
we saw in it are men of a great stature. |
| 013:033 | And
there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we
were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. |
|
| 014:001
| And
all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept
that night. | | 014:002 | And
all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the
whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of
Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness! |
| 014:003 | And
wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that
our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return
into Egypt? |
| 014:004 | And
they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
|
| 014:005 | Then
Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation
of the children of Israel. |
| 014:006 | And
Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that
searched the land, rent their clothes: |
| 014:007 | And
they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land,
which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land. |
| 014:008 | If
the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us;
a land which floweth with milk and honey. |
| 014:009 | Only
rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for
they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD is
with us: fear them not. |
| 014:010 | But
all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the glory of the LORD
appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation before all the children of Israel.
|
| 014:011 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long
will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among
them? |
| 014:012 | I
will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of
thee a greater nation and mightier than they. |
| 014:013 | And
Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest
up this people in thy might from among them;) |
| 014:014 | And
they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that
thou LORD art among this people, that thou LORD art seen face to face, and
that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day
time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night. |
| 014:015 | Now
if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have
heard the fame of thee will speak, saying, |
| 014:016 | Because
the LORD was not able to bring this people into the land which he sware unto
them, therefore he hath slain them in the wilderness. |
| 014:017 | And
now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast
spoken, saying, |
| 014:018 | The
LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression,
and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon
the children unto the third and fourth generation. |
| 014:019 | Pardon,
I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according unto the greatness of
thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
|
| 014:020 | And
the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word: |
| 014:021 | But
as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD.
|
| 014:022 | Because
all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt
and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not
hearkened to my voice; |
| 014:023 | Surely
they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall
any of them that provoked me see it: |
| 014:024 | But
my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed
me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall
possess it. |
| 014:025 | (Now
the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) Tomorrow turn you,
and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea. |
| 014:026 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
| 014:027 | How
long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have
heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
|
| 014:028 | Say
unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears,
so will I do to you: |
| 014:029 | Your
carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you,
according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have
murmured against me. |
| 014:030 | Doubtless
ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell
therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. |
| 014:031 | But
your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and
they shall know the land which ye have despised. |
| 014:032 | But
as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. |
| 014:033 | And
your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms,
until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness. |
| 014:034 | After
the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each
day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall
know my breach of promise. |
| 014:035 | I
the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that
are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed,
and there they shall die. |
| 014:036 | And
the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the
congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,
|
| 014:037 | Even
those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague
before the LORD. |
| 014:038 | But
Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men
that went to search the land, lived still. |
| 014:039 | And
Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned
greatly. |
| 014:040 | And
they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain,
saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the LORD hath promised:
for we have sinned. |
| 014:041 | And
Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but
it shall not prosper. |
| 014:042 | Go
not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.
|
| 014:043 | For
the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by
the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will
not be with you. |
| 014:044 | But
they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant
of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp. |
| 014:045 | Then
the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and
smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah. |
|
| 015:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 015:002 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land
of your habitations, which I give unto you, |
| 015:003 | And
will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice
in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to
make a sweet savour unto the LORD, of the herd or of the flock: |
| 015:004 | Then
shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD bring a meat offering of
a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil. |
| 015:005 | And
the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shalt thou prepare with
the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb. |
| 015:006 | Or
for a ram, thou shalt prepare for a meat offering two tenth deals of flour
mingled with the third part of an hin of oil. |
| 015:007 | And
for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an hin of wine, for
a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
| 015:008 | And
when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing
a vow, or peace offerings unto the LORD: |
| 015:009 | Then
shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour
mingled with half an hin of oil. |
| 015:010 | And
thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, for an offering
made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
| 015:011 | Thus
shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid.
|
| 015:012 | According
to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do to every one according
to their number. |
| 015:013 | All
that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering
an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
| 015:014 | And
if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations,
and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as
ye do, so he shall do. |
| 015:015 | One
ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger
that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye
are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD. |
| 015:016 | One
law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with
you. |
| 015:017 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 015:018 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land
whither I bring you, |
| 015:019 | Then
it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall offer up
an heave offering unto the LORD. |
| 015:020 | Ye
shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an heave offering: as
ye do the heave offering of the threshingfloor, so shall ye heave it. |
| 015:021 | Of
the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an heave offering in your
generations. |
| 015:022 | And
if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the LORD hath
spoken unto Moses, |
| 015:023 | Even
all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that
the LORD commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations; |
| 015:024 | Then
it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the
congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a
burnt offering, for a sweet savour unto the LORD, with his meat offering, and
his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a
sin offering. |
| 015:025 | And
the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children
of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall
bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD, and their sin
offering before the LORD, for their ignorance: |
| 015:026 | And
it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the
stranger that sojourneth among them; seeing all the people were in ignorance.
|
| 015:027 | And
if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first
year for a sin offering. |
| 015:028 | And
the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sinneth ignorantly, when
he sinneth by ignorance before the LORD, to make an atonement for him; and
it shall be forgiven him. |
| 015:029 | Ye
shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, both for him that
is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth
among them. |
| 015:030 | But
the soul that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the land, or
a stranger, the same reproacheth the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from
among his people. |
| 015:031 | Because
he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken his commandment, that
soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him. |
| 015:032 | And
while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that
gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. |
| 015:033 | And
they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and
unto all the congregation. |
| 015:034 | And
they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
|
| 015:035 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation
shall stone him with stones without the camp. |
| 015:036 | And
all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones,
and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
| 015:037 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 015:038 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the
borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon
the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue: |
| 015:039 | And
it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all
the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your
own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: |
| 015:040 | That
ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God. |
| 015:041 | I
am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your
God: I am the LORD your God. |
|
| 016:001
| Now
Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and
Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took
men: | | 016:002 | And
they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred
and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
|
| 016:003 | And
they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said
unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy,
every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves
above the congregation of the LORD? |
| 016:004 | And
when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face: |
| 016:005 | And
he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD
will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto
him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him. |
| 016:006 | This
do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company; |
| 016:007 | And
put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it
shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take
too much upon you, ye sons of Levi. |
| 016:008 | And
Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi: |
| 016:009 | Seemeth
it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from
the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service
of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister
unto them? |
| 016:010 | And
he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with
thee: and seek ye the priesthood also? |
| 016:011 | For
which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the
LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him? |
| 016:012 | And
Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will
not come up: |
| 016:013 | Is
it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with
milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether
a prince over us? |
| 016:014 | Moreover
thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given
us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these
men? we will not come up. |
| 016:015 | And
Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering:
I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them. |
| 016:016 | And
Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and
they, and Aaron, to morrow: |
| 016:017 | And
take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the
LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron,
each of you his censer. |
| 016:018 | And
they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon,
and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and
Aaron. |
| 016:019 | And
Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
|
| 016:020 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
| 016:021 | Separate
yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
|
| 016:022 | And
they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all
flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
|
| 016:023 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 016:024 | Speak
unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah,
Dathan, and Abiram. |
| 016:025 | And
Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed
him. |
| 016:026 | And
he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents
of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their's, lest ye be consumed in all
their sins. |
| 016:027 | So
they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side:
and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their
wives, and their sons, and their little children. |
| 016:028 | And
Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these
works; for I have not done them of mine own mind. |
| 016:029 | If
these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the
visitation of all men; then the LORD hath not sent me. |
| 016:030 | But
if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them
up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit;
then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. |
| 016:031 | And
it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the
ground clave asunder that was under them: |
| 016:032 | And
the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all
the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods. |
| 016:033 | They,
and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth
closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. |
| 016:034 | And
all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said,
Lest the earth swallow us up also. |
| 016:035 | And
there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty
men that offered incense. |
| 016:036 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 016:037 | Speak
unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of
the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed. |
| 016:038 | The
censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad
plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD,
therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of
Israel. |
| 016:039 | And
Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt
had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar: |
| 016:040 | To
be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of
the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not
as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.
|
| 016:041 | But
on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against
Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD. |
| 016:042 | And
it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against
Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold,
the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. |
| 016:043 | And
Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 016:044 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 016:045 | Get
you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment.
And they fell upon their faces. |
| 016:046 | And
Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar,
and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement
for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun. |
| 016:047 | And
Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation;
and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense,
and made an atonement for the people. |
| 016:048 | And
he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed. |
| 016:049 | Now
they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside
them that died about the matter of Korah. |
| 016:050 | And
Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
and the plague was stayed. |
|
| 018:001
| And
the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee
shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall
bear the iniquity of your priesthood. | | 018:002 | And
thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou
with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee: but thou
and thy sons with thee shall minister before the tabernacle of witness. |
| 018:003 | And
they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they
shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither
they, nor ye also, die. |
| 018:004 | And
they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the
congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not
come nigh unto you. |
| 018:005 | And
ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that
there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel. |
| 018:006 | And
I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of
Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the service of
the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 018:007 | Therefore
thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for everything
of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your priest's
office unto you as a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall
be put to death. |
| 018:008 | And
the LORD spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge of mine
heave offerings of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel; unto
thee have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to thy sons, by an ordinance
for ever. |
| 018:009 | This
shall be thine of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every oblation
of their's, every meat offering of their's, and every sin offering of their's,
and every trespass offering of their's which they shall render unto me, shall
be most holy for thee and for thy sons. |
| 018:010 | In
the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be
holy unto thee. |
| 018:011 | And
this is thine; the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings
of the children of Israel: I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons and
to thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean
in thy house shall eat of it. |
| 018:012 | All
the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the wheat, the firstfruits
of them which they shall offer unto the LORD, them have I given thee. |
| 018:013 | And
whatsoever is first ripe in the land, which they shall bring unto the LORD,
shall be thine; every one that is clean in thine house shall eat of it. |
| 018:014 | Every
thing devoted in Israel shall be thine. |
| 018:015 | Every
thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring unto the LORD,
whether it be of men or beasts, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstborn
of man shalt thou surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt
thou redeem. |
| 018:016 | And
those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem, according
to thine estimation, for the money of five shekels, after the shekel of the
sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs. |
| 018:017 | But
the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a
goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood
upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for
a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
| 018:018 | And
the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder
are thine. |
| 018:019 | All
the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer
unto the LORD, have I given thee, and thy sons and thy daughters with thee,
by a statute for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD unto
thee and to thy seed with thee. |
| 018:020 | And
the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither
shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among
the children of Israel. |
| 018:021 | And,
behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance,
for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the
congregation. |
| 018:022 | Neither
must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation,
lest they bear sin, and die. |
| 018:023 | But
the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and
they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your
generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance. |
| 018:024 | But
the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering
unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said
unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. |
| 018:025 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 018:026 | Thus
speak unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye take of the children of
Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then
ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the LORD, even a tenth part of
the tithe. |
| 018:027 | And
this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as though it were the
corn of the threshingfloor, and as the fulness of the winepress. |
| 018:028 | Thus
ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the LORD of all your tithes, which
ye receive of the children of Israel; and ye shall give thereof the LORD's
heave offering to Aaron the priest. |
| 018:029 | Out
of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of the LORD, of all the
best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it. |
| 018:030 | Therefore
thou shalt say unto them, When ye have heaved the best thereof from it, then
it shall be counted unto the Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor,
and as the increase of the winepress. |
| 018:031 | And
ye shall eat it in every place, ye and your households: for it is your reward
for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation. |
| 018:032 | And
ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved from it the best
of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel,
lest ye die. |
|
| 019:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, | | 019:002 | This
is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto
the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein
is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke: |
| 019:003 | And
ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without
the camp, and one shall slay her before his face: |
| 019:004 | And
Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of
her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times: |
| 019:005 | And
one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood,
with her dung, shall he burn: |
| 019:006 | And
the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into
the midst of the burning of the heifer. |
| 019:007 | Then
the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and
afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until
the even. |
| 019:008 | And
he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in
water, and shall be unclean until the even. |
| 019:009 | And
a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up
without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation
of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for
sin. |
| 019:010 | And
he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger
that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever. |
| 019:011 | He
that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days. |
| 019:012 | He
shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall
be clean: but if he purify not himself the third day, then the seventh day
he shall not be clean. |
| 019:013 | Whosoever
toucheth the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifieth not himself,
defileth the tabernacle of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel:
because the water of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean;
his uncleanness is yet upon him. |
| 019:014 | This
is the law, when a man dieth in a tent: all that come into the tent, and all
that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days. |
| 019:015 | And
every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it, is unclean. |
| 019:016 | And
whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword in the open fields, or a
dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days. |
| 019:017 | And
for an unclean person they shall take of the ashes of the burnt heifer of purification
for sin, and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel: |
| 019:018 | And
a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it
upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons that were there,
and upon him that touched a bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave: |
| 019:019 | And
the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day, and on the
seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify himself, and wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at even. |
| 019:020 | But
the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall
be cut off from among the congregation, because he hath defiled the sanctuary
of the LORD: the water of separation hath not been sprinkled upon him; he is
unclean. |
| 019:021 | And
it shall be a perpetual statute unto them, that he that sprinkleth the water
of separation shall wash his clothes; and he that toucheth the water of separation
shall be unclean until even. |
| 019:022 | And
whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; and the soul that
toucheth it shall be unclean until even. |
|
| 020:001
| Then
came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of
Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there,
and was buried there. | | 020:002 | And
there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together
against Moses and against Aaron. |
| 020:003 | And
the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died
when our brethren died before the LORD! |
| 020:004 | And
why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that
we and our cattle should die there? |
| 020:005 | And
wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this
evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates;
neither is there any water to drink. |
| 020:006 | And
Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory
of the LORD appeared unto them. |
| 020:007 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 020:008 | Take
the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother,
and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water,
and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give
the congregation and their beasts drink. |
| 020:009 | And
Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him. |
| 020:010 | And
Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he
said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?
|
| 020:011 | And
Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the
water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.
|
| 020:012 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify
me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this
congregation into the land which I have given them. |
| 020:013 | This
is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD,
and he was sanctified in them. |
| 020:014 | And
Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother
Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us: |
| 020:015 | How
our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and
the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers: |
| 020:016 | And
when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath
brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the
uttermost of thy border: |
| 020:017 | Let
us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not pass through the fields,
or through the vineyards, neither will we drink of the water of the wells:
we will go by the king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to
the left, until we have passed thy borders. |
| 020:018 | And
Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee
with the sword. |
| 020:019 | And
the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the high way: and if I
and my cattle drink of thy water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without
doing anything else, go through on my feet. |
| 020:020 | And
he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much
people, and with a strong hand. |
| 020:021 | Thus
Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned
away from him. |
| 020:022 | And
the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh,
and came unto mount Hor. |
| 020:023 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land
of Edom, saying, |
| 020:024 | Aaron
shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not enter into the land which
I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word
at the water of Meribah. |
| 020:025 | Take
Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor: |
| 020:026 | And
strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall
be gathered unto his people, and shall die there. |
| 020:027 | And
Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight
of all the congregation. |
| 020:028 | And
Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and
Aaron died there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from
the mount. |
| 020:029 | And
when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty
days, even all the house of Israel. |
|
| 021:001
| And
when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, heard tell that Israel
came by the way of the spies; then he fought against Israel, and took some
of them prisoners. | | 021:002 | And
Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver this
people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities. |
| 021:003 | And
the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites;
and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and he called the name of
the place Hormah. |
| 021:004 | And
they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land
of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
|
| 021:005 | And
the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought
us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither
is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread. |
| 021:006 | And
the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and
much people of Israel died. |
| 021:007 | Therefore
the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against
the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that he take away the serpents
from us. And Moses prayed for the people. |
| 021:008 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole:
and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon
it, shall live. |
| 021:009 | And
Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass,
that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass,
he lived. |
| 021:010 | And
the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth. |
| 021:011 | And
they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which
is before Moab, toward the sunrising. |
| 021:012 | From
thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared. |
| 021:013 | From
thence they removed, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the
wilderness that cometh out of the coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the
border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites. |
| 021:014 | Wherefore
it is said in the book of the wars of the LORD, What he did in the Red sea,
and in the brooks of Arnon, |
| 021:015 | And
at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the dwelling of Ar, and lieth
upon the border of Moab. |
| 021:016 | And
from thence they went to Beer: that is the well whereof the LORD spake unto
Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water. |
| 021:017 | Then
Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it: |
| 021:018 | The
princes digged the well, the nobles of the people digged it, by the direction
of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:
|
| 021:019 | And
from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth: |
| 021:020 | And
from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah,
which looketh toward Jeshimon. |
| 021:021 | And
Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying, |
| 021:022 | Let
me pass through thy land: we will not turn into the fields, or into the vineyards;
we will not drink of the waters of the well: but we will go along by the king's
high way, until we be past thy borders. |
| 021:023 | And
Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered
all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness: and
he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel. |
| 021:024 | And
Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from Arnon
unto Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon: for the border of the children
of Ammon was strong. |
| 021:025 | And
Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites,
in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof. |
| 021:026 | For
Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against
the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto
Arnon. |
| 021:027 | Wherefore
they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be
built and prepared: |
| 021:028 | For
there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon: it hath
consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the high places of Arnon. |
| 021:029 | Woe
to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh: he hath given his sons
that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
|
| 021:030 | We
have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and we have laid them
waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba. |
| 021:031 | Thus
Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. |
| 021:032 | And
Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove
out the Amorites that were there. |
| 021:033 | And
they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went
out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei. |
| 021:034 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand,
and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto
Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon. |
| 021:035 | So
they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left
him alive: and they possessed his land. |
|
| 022:001
| And
the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this
side Jordan by Jericho. | | 022:002 | And
Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites. |
| 022:003 | And
Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed
because of the children of Israel. |
| 022:004 | And
Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall this company lick up all that
are round about us, as the ox licketh up the grass of the field. And Balak
the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time. |
| 022:005 | He
sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor, which is by
the river of the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, Behold,
there is a people come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the earth,
and they abide over against me: |
| 022:006 | Come
now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for
me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive
them out of the land: for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and
he whom thou cursest is cursed. |
| 022:007 | And
the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination
in their hand; and they came unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak.
|
| 022:008 | And
he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring you word again,
as the LORD shall speak unto me: and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam.
|
| 022:009 | And
God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee? |
| 022:010 | And
Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto
me, saying, |
| 022:011 | Behold,
there is a people come out of Egypt, which covereth the face of the earth:
come now, curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to overcome them, and
drive them out. |
| 022:012 | And
God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the
people: for they are blessed. |
| 022:013 | And
Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak, Get you
into your land: for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you. |
| 022:014 | And
the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth
to come with us. |
| 022:015 | And
Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they. |
| 022:016 | And
they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, Let
nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me: |
| 022:017 | For
I will promote thee unto very great honour, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest
unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people. |
| 022:018 | And
Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me
his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD
my God, to do less or more. |
| 022:019 | Now
therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what
the LORD will say unto me more. |
| 022:020 | And
God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, If the men come to call thee,
rise up, and go with them; but yet the word which I shall say unto thee, that
shalt thou do. |
| 022:021 | And
Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes
of Moab. |
| 022:022 | And
God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in
the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his
two servants were with him. |
| 022:023 | And
the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn
in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field:
and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way. |
| 022:024 | But
the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this
side, and a wall on that side. |
| 022:025 | And
when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself unto the wall, and
crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again. |
| 022:026 | And
the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was
no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left. |
| 022:027 | And
when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's
anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff. |
| 022:028 | And
the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I
done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? |
| 022:029 | And
Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a
sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. |
| 022:030 | And
the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever
since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he
said, Nay. |
| 022:031 | Then
the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing
in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and
fell flat on his face. |
| 022:032 | And
the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass
these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is
perverse before me: |
| 022:033 | And
the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned
from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive. |
| 022:034 | And
Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for I knew not that
thou stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease thee, I
will get me back again. |
| 022:035 | And
the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word
that I shall speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak. So Balaam went with the
princes of Balak. |
| 022:036 | And
when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto a city
of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast. |
| 022:037 | And
Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore
camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour? |
| 022:038 | And
Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all
to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.
|
| 022:039 | And
Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjathhuzoth. |
| 022:040 | And
Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were
with him. |
| 022:041 | And
it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into
the high places of Baal, that thence he might see the utmost part of the people.
|
|
| 023:001
| And
Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven
oxen and seven rams. | | 023:002 | And
Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar
a bullock and a ram. |
| 023:003 | And
Balaam said unto Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I will go: peradventure
the LORD will come to meet me: and whatsoever he sheweth me I will tell thee.
And he went to an high place. |
| 023:004 | And
God met Balaam: and he said unto him, I have prepared seven altars, and I have
offered upon every altar a bullock and a ram. |
| 023:005 | And
the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus
thou shalt speak. |
| 023:006 | And
he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all
the princes of Moab. |
| 023:007 | And
he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab hath brought me from
Aram, out of the mountains of the east, saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come,
defy Israel. |
| 023:008 | How
shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD
hath not defied? |
| 023:009 | For
from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the
people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations. |
| 023:010 | Who
can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let
me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his! |
| 023:011 | And
Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine
enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether. |
| 023:012 | And
he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath
put in my mouth? |
| 023:013 | And
Balak said unto him, Come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence
thou mayest see them: thou shalt see but the utmost part of them, and shalt
not see them all: and curse me them from thence. |
| 023:014 | And
he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven
altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar. |
| 023:015 | And
he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet the LORD
yonder. |
| 023:016 | And
the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again unto Balak,
and say thus. |
| 023:017 | And
when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes
of Moab with him. And Balak said unto him, What hath the LORD spoken? |
| 023:018 | And
he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; hearken unto me,
thou son of Zippor: |
| 023:019 | God
is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent:
hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make
it good? |
| 023:020 | Behold,
I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse
it. |
| 023:021 | He
hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel:
the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them. |
| 023:022 | God
brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. |
| 023:023 | Surely
there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against
Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What
hath God wrought! |
| 023:024 | Behold,
the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion:
he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the
slain. |
| 023:025 | And
Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all. |
| 023:026 | But
Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying, All that the
LORD speaketh, that I must do? |
| 023:027 | And
Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee unto another place;
peradventure it will please God that thou mayest curse me them from thence.
|
| 023:028 | And
Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward Jeshimon. |
| 023:029 | And
Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven
bullocks and seven rams. |
| 023:030 | And
Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
|
|
| 024:001
| And
when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at
other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
| | 024:002 | And
Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his tents according
to their tribes; and the spirit of God came upon him. |
| 024:003 | And
he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the
man whose eyes are open hath said: |
| 024:004 | He
hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty,
falling into a trance, but having his eyes open: |
| 024:005 | How
goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel! |
| 024:006 | As
the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees
of lign aloes which the LORD hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
|
| 024:007 | He
shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters,
and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. |
| 024:008 | God
brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn:
he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce
them through with his arrows. |
| 024:009 | He
couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up?
Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee. |
| 024:010 | And
Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together:
and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold,
thou hast altogether blessed them these three times. |
| 024:011 | Therefore
now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honour; but,
lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honour. |
| 024:012 | And
Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest
unto me, saying, |
| 024:013 | If
Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the
commandment of the LORD, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what
the LORD saith, that will I speak? |
| 024:014 | And
now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee
what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days. |
| 024:015 | And
he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the
man whose eyes are open hath said: |
| 024:016 | He
hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most
High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having
his eyes open: |
| 024:017 | I
shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come
a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite
the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. |
| 024:018 | And
Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies;
and Israel shall do valiantly. |
| 024:019 | Out
of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that
remaineth of the city. |
| 024:020 | And
when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the
first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish for ever.
|
| 024:021 | And
he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy
dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock. |
| 024:022 | Nevertheless
the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive. |
| 024:023 | And
he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
|
| 024:024 | And
ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall
afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever. |
| 024:025 | And
Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his
way. |
|
| 025:001
| And
Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters
of Moab. | | 025:002 | And
they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did
eat, and bowed down to their gods. |
| 025:003 | And
Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled
against Israel. |
| 025:004 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up
before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned
away from Israel. |
| 025:005 | And
Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined
unto Baalpeor. |
| 025:006 | And,
behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a
Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation
of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
| 025:007 | And
when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he
rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand; |
| 025:008 | And
he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through,
the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed
from the children of Israel. |
| 025:009 | And
those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand. |
| 025:010 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 025:011 | Phinehas,
the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away
from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that
I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy. |
| 025:012 | Wherefore
say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace: |
| 025:013 | And
he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting
priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the
children of Israel. |
| 025:014 | Now
the name of the Israelite that was slain, even that was slain with the Midianitish
woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.
|
| 025:015 | And
the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of
Zur; he was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian. |
| 025:016 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 025:017 | Vex
the Midianites, and smite them: |
| 025:018 | For
they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter
of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their
sister, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake. |
|
| 026:001
| And
it came to pass after the plague, that the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Eleazar
the son of Aaron the priest, saying, | | 026:002 | Take
the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, from twenty years
old and upward, throughout their fathers' house, all that are able to go to
war in Israel. |
| 026:003 | And
Moses and Eleazar the priest spake with them in the plains of Moab by Jordan
near Jericho, saying, |
| 026:004 | Take
the sum of the people, from twenty years old and upward; as the LORD commanded
Moses and the children of Israel, which went forth out of the land of Egypt.

Abiram, which were famous in the congregation, who strove against Moses and
against Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against the LORD: |
| 026:010 | And
the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when
that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and
they became a sign. |
| 026:011 | Notwithstanding
the children of Korah died not. |

| 026:051 | These
were the numbered of the children of Israel, six hundred thousand and a thousand
seven hundred and thirty. |
| 026:052 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 026:053 | Unto
these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according to the number
of names. |
| 026:054 | To
many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less
inheritance: to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those
that were numbered of him. |
| 026:055 | Notwithstanding
the land shall be divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their
fathers they shall inherit. |
| 026:056 | According
to the lot shall the possession thereof be divided between many and few. |
| 026:057 | And

| 026:060 | And
unto Aaron was born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. |
| 026:061 | And
Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the LORD. |
| 026:062 | And
those that were numbered of them were twenty and three thousand, all males
from a month old and upward: for they were not numbered among the children
of Israel, because there was no inheritance given them among the children of
Israel. |
| 026:063 | These
are they that were numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the
children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho. |
| 026:064 | But
among these there was not a man of them whom Moses and Aaron the priest numbered,
when they numbered the children of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai. |
| 026:065 | For
the LORD had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there
was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the
son of Nun. |
|
| 027:001
| Then
came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the
son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of
Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah,
and Milcah, and Tirzah. | | 027:002 | And
they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes
and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
saying, |
| 027:003 | Our
father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them that gathered
themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah; but died in his
own sin, and had no sons. |
| 027:004 | Why
should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he
hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our
father. |
| 027:005 | And
Moses brought their cause before the LORD. |
| 027:006 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 027:007 | The
daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession
of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance
of their father to pass unto them. |
| 027:008 | And
thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die, and have
no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his daughter. |
| 027:009 | And
if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
|
| 027:010 | And
if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father's
brethren. |
| 027:011 | And
if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his
kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it: and it
shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded
Moses. |
| 027:012 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land
which I have given unto the children of Israel. |
| 027:013 | And
when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron
thy brother was gathered. |
| 027:014 | For
ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the
congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water
of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin. |
| 027:015 | And
Moses spake unto the LORD, saying, |
| 027:016 | Let
the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
|
| 027:017 | Which
may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead
them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be
not as sheep which have no shepherd. |
| 027:018 | And
the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is
the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him; |
| 027:019 | And
set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give
him a charge in their sight. |
| 027:020 | And
thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of
the children of Israel may be obedient. |
| 027:021 | And
he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after
the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go out, and at
his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him,
even all the congregation. |
| 027:022 | And
Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before
Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation: |
| 027:023 | And
he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by
the hand of Moses. |
|
| 028:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 028:002 | Command
the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my
sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer
unto me in their due season. |
| 028:003 | And
thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall
offer unto the LORD; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for
a continual burnt offering. |
| 028:004 | The
one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer
at even; |
| 028:005 | And
a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth
part of an hin of beaten oil. |
| 028:006 | It
is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet
savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. |
| 028:007 | And
the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb:
in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the LORD
for a drink offering. |
| 028:008 | And
the other lamb shalt thou offer at even: as the meat offering of the morning,
and as the drink offering thereof, thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by
fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
| 028:009 | And
on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth
deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering
thereof: |
| 028:010 | This
is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering,
and his drink offering. |
| 028:011 | And
in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the LORD;
two young bullocks, and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without spot;
|
| 028:012 | And
three tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one bullock;
and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one
ram; |
| 028:013 | And
a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil for a meat offering unto one
lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto
the LORD. |
| 028:014 | And
their drink offerings shall be half an hin of wine unto a bullock, and the
third part of an hin unto a ram, and a fourth part of an hin unto a lamb: this
is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year. |
| 028:015 | And
one kid of the goats for a sin offering unto the LORD shall be offered, beside
the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering. |
| 028:016 | And
in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the LORD. |
| 028:017 | And
in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened
bread be eaten. |
| 028:018 | In
the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile
work therein: |
| 028:019 | But
ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering unto the LORD;
two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven lambs of the first year: they shall
be unto you without blemish: |
| 028:020 | And
their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil: three tenth deals shall
ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram; |
| 028:021 | A
several tenth deal shalt thou offer for every lamb, throughout the seven lambs:
|
| 028:022 | And
one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you. |
| 028:023 | Ye
shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning, which is for a
continual burnt offering. |
| 028:024 | After
this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the
sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD: it shall be offered
beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering. |
| 028:025 | And
on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile
work. |
| 028:026 | Also
in the day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering unto the LORD,
after your weeks be out, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no
servile work: |
| 028:027 | But
ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the LORD; two young
bullocks, one ram, seven lambs of the first year; |
| 028:028 | And
their meat offering of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals unto one bullock,
two tenth deals unto one ram, |
| 028:029 | A
several tenth deal unto one lamb, throughout the seven lambs; |
| 028:030 | And
one kid of the goats, to make an atonement for you. |
| 028:031 | Ye
shall offer them beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat offering,
(they shall be unto you without blemish) and their drink offerings. |
|
| 029:001
| And
in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy
convocation; ye shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets
unto you. | | 029:002 | And
ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the LORD; one young
bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year without blemish: |
| 029:003 | And
their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals for
a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram, |
| 029:004 | And
one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: |
| 029:005 | And
one kid of the goats for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you: |
| 029:006 | Beside
the burnt offering of the month, and his meat offering, and the daily burnt
offering, and his meat offering, and their drink offerings, according unto
their manner, for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. |
| 029:007 | And
ye shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month an holy convocation; and
ye shall afflict your souls: ye shall not do any work therein: |
| 029:008 | But
ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the LORD for a sweet savour; one young
bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year; they shall be unto you
without blemish: |
| 029:009 | And
their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals to
a bullock, and two tenth deals to one ram, |
| 029:010 | A
several tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: |
| 029:011 | One
kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the sin offering of atonement,
and the continual burnt offering, and the meat offering of it, and their drink
offerings. |
| 029:012 | And
on the fifteenth day of the seventh month ye shall have an holy convocation;
ye shall do no servile work, and ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven
days: |
| 029:013 | And
ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour
unto the LORD; thirteen young bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the
first year; they shall be without blemish: |
| 029:014 | And
their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals unto
every bullock of the thirteen bullocks, two tenth deals to each ram of the
two rams, |
| 029:015 | And
a several tenth deal to each lamb of the fourteen lambs: |
| 029:016 | And
one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering,
his meat offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:017 | And
on the second day ye shall offer twelve young bullocks, two rams, fourteen
lambs of the first year without spot: |
| 029:018 | And
their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams,
and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:019 | And
one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering,
and the meat offering thereof, and their drink offerings. |
| 029:020 | And
on the third day eleven bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs of the first year
without blemish; |
| 029:021 | And
their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams,
and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:022 | And
one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat
offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:023 | And
on the fourth day ten bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the first year
without blemish: |
| 029:024 | Their
meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams, and
for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:025 | And
one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering,
his meat offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:026 | And
on the fifth day nine bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the first year
without spot: |
| 029:027 | And
their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams,
and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:028 | And
one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat
offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:029 | And
on the sixth day eight bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the first
year without blemish: |
| 029:030 | And
their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams,
and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:031 | And
one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, his meat
offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:032 | And
on the seventh day seven bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the first
year without blemish: |
| 029:033 | And
their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullocks, for the rams,
and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:034 | And
one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, his meat
offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:035 | On
the eighth day ye shall have a solemn assembly: ye shall do no servile work
therein: |
| 029:036 | But
ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour
unto the LORD: one bullock, one ram, seven lambs of the first year without
blemish: |
| 029:037 | Their
meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullock, for the ram, and for
the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the manner: |
| 029:038 | And
one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat
offering, and his drink offering. |
| 029:039 | These
things ye shall do unto the LORD in your set feasts, beside your vows, and
your freewill offerings, for your burnt offerings, and for your meat offerings,
and for your drink offerings, and for your peace offerings. |
| 029:040 | And
Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded
Moses. |
|
| 030:001
| And
Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel,
saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded. | | 030:002 | If
a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond;
he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out
of his mouth. |
| 030:003 | If
a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a bond, being in
her father's house in her youth; |
| 030:004 | And
her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and
her father shall hold his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and
every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand. |
| 030:005 | But
if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows,
or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the LORD
shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her. |
| 030:006 | And
if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips,
wherewith she bound her soul; |
| 030:007 | And
her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it:
then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall
stand. |
| 030:008 | But
if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make
her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith
she bound her soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall forgive her. |
| 030:009 | But
every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound
their souls, shall stand against her. |
| 030:010 | And
if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;
|
| 030:011 | And
her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then
all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall
stand. |
| 030:012 | But
if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatsoever
proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her
soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD shall
forgive her. |
| 030:013 | Every
vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish
it, or her husband may make it void. |
| 030:014 | But
if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day; then he establisheth
all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he confirmeth them, because
he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them. |
| 030:015 | But
if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them; then he
shall bear her iniquity. |
| 030:016 | These
are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife,
between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's
house. |
|
| 031:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 031:002 | Avenge
the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered
unto thy people. |
| 031:003 | And
Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the war, and
let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the LORD of Midian. |
| 031:004 | Of
every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send
to the war. |
| 031:005 | So
there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe,
twelve thousand armed for war. |
| 031:006 | And
Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them and Phinehas the
son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy instruments, and the trumpets
to blow in his hand. |
| 031:007 | And
they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew
all the males. |
| 031:008 | And
they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of them that were slain; namely,
Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian: Balaam also
the son of Beor they slew with the sword. |
| 031:009 | And
the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and their little
ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all
their goods. |
| 031:010 | And
they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles,
with fire. |
| 031:011 | And
they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts. |
| 031:012 | And
they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and Eleazar
the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp
at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho. |
| 031:013 | And
Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went
forth to meet them without the camp. |
| 031:014 | And
Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands,
and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle. |
| 031:015 | And
Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? |
| 031:016 | Behold,
these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit
trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among
the congregation of the LORD. |
| 031:017 | Now
therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that
hath known man by lying with him. |
| 031:018 | But
all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive
for yourselves. |
| 031:019 | And
do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person,
and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives
on the third day, and on the seventh day. |
| 031:020 | And
purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats'
hair, and all things made of wood. |
| 031:021 | And
Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This
is the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses; |
| 031:022 | Only
the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead, |
| 031:023 | Every
thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it
shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation:
and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go through the water. |
| 031:024 | And
ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward
ye shall come into the camp. |
| 031:025 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 031:026 | Take
the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar
the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation: |
| 031:027 | And
divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who
went out to battle, and between all the congregation: |
| 031:028 | And
levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which went out to battle: one
soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses,
and of the sheep: |
| 031:029 | Take
it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for an heave offering
of the LORD. |
| 031:030 | And
of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one portion of fifty, of
the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, of all manner
of beasts, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle
of the LORD. |
| 031:031 | And
Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses. |
| 031:032 | And
the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had caught, was
six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep, |
| 031:033 | And
threescore and twelve thousand beeves, |
| 031:034 | And
threescore and one thousand asses, |
| 031:035 | And
thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by
lying with him. |
| 031:036 | And
the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number
three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:
|
| 031:037 | And
the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
|
| 031:038 | And
the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was threescore
and twelve. |
| 031:039 | And
the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD's tribute
was threescore and one. |
| 031:040 | And
the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was thirty and
two persons. |
| 031:041 | And
Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave offering, unto Eleazar the
priest, as the LORD commanded Moses. |
| 031:042 | And
of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
|
| 031:043 | (Now
the half that pertained unto the congregation was three hundred thousand and
thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep, |
| 031:044 | And
thirty and six thousand beeves, |
| 031:045 | And
thirty thousand asses and five hundred, |
| 031:046 | And
sixteen thousand persons;) |
| 031:047 | Even
of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty, both of
man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of
the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
| 031:048 | And
the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands,
and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses: |
| 031:049 | And
they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war which
are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us. |
| 031:050 | We
have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath gotten,
of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to
make an atonement for our souls before the LORD. |
| 031:051 | And
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
|
| 031:052 | And
all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains
of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred
and fifty shekels. |
| 031:053 | (For
the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.) |
| 031:054 | And
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and
of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a
memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD. |
|
| 032:001
| Now
the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of
cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that,
behold, the place was a place for cattle; | | 032:002 | The
children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses, and to
Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying, |
| 032:003 | Ataroth,
and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and
Nebo, and Beon, |
| 032:004 | Even
the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land
for cattle, and thy servants have cattle: |
| 032:005 | Wherefore,
said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto
thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan. |
| 032:006 | And
Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your
brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here? |
| 032:007 | And
wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over
into the land which the LORD hath given them? |
| 032:008 | Thus
did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land. |
| 032:009 | For
when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged
the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land
which the LORD had given them. |
| 032:010 | And
the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying, |
| 032:011 | Surely
none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward,
shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob;
because they have not wholly followed me: |
| 032:012 | Save
Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they
have wholly followed the LORD. |
| 032:013 | And
the LORD's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the
wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the
sight of the LORD, was consumed. |
| 032:014 | And,
behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men,
to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel. |
| 032:015 | For
if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness;
and ye shall destroy all this people. |
| 032:016 | And
they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle,
and cities for our little ones: |
| 032:017 | But
we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have
brought them unto their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced
cities because of the inhabitants of the land. |
| 032:018 | We
will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited
every man his inheritance. |
| 032:019 | For
we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our
inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward. |
| 032:020 | And
Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before
the LORD to war, |
| 032:021 | And
will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven
out his enemies from before him, |
| 032:022 | And
the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be
guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession
before the LORD. |
| 032:023 | But
if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure
your sin will find you out. |
| 032:024 | Build
you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which
hath proceeded out of your mouth. |
| 032:025 | And
the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy
servants will do as my lord commandeth. |
| 032:026 | Our
little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the
cities of Gilead: |
| 032:027 | But
thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle,
as my lord saith. |
| 032:028 | So
concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun,
and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel: |
| 032:029 | And
Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will
pass with you over Jordan, every man armed to battle, before the LORD, and
the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead
for a possession: |
| 032:030 | But
if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among
you in the land of Canaan. |
| 032:031 | And
the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD
hath said unto thy servants, so will we do. |
| 032:032 | We
will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession
of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be our's. |
| 032:033 | And
Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben,
and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon
king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with
the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.
|
| 032:034 | And
the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer, |
| 032:035 | And
Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah, |
| 032:036 | And
Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep. |
| 032:037 | And
the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim, |
| 032:038 | And
Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah: and gave other
names unto the cities which they builded. |
| 032:039 | And
the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and
dispossessed the Amorite which was in it. |
| 032:040 | And
Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt therein. |
| 032:041 | And
Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns thereof, and called
them Havothjair. |
| 032:042 | And
Nobah went and took Kenath, and the villages thereof, and called it Nobah,
after his own name. |
|
| 033:001
| These
are the journeys of the children of Israel, which went forth out of the land
of Egypt with their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron. | | 033:002 | And
Moses wrote their goings out according to their journeys by the commandment
of the LORD: and these are their journeys according to their goings out. |
| 033:003 | And
they departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the
first month; on the morrow after the passover the children of Israel went out
with an high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians. |
| 033:004 | For
the Egyptians buried all their firstborn, which the LORD had smitten among
them: upon their gods also the LORD executed judgments. |
| 033:005 | And
the children of Israel removed from Rameses, and pitched in Succoth. |
| 033:006 | And
they departed from Succoth, and pitched in Etham, which is in the edge of the
wilderness. |
| 033:007 | And
they removed from Etham, and turned again unto Pihahiroth, which is before
Baalzephon: and they pitched before Migdol. |
| 033:008 | And
they departed from before Pihahiroth, and passed through the midst of the sea
into the wilderness, and went three days' journey in the wilderness of Etham,
and pitched in Marah. |
| 033:009 | And
they removed from Marah, and came unto Elim: and in Elim were twelve fountains
of water, and threescore and ten palm trees; and they pitched there. |
| 033:010 | And
they removed from Elim, and encamped by the Red sea. |
| 033:011 | And
they removed from the Red sea, and encamped in the wilderness of Sin. |
| 033:012 | And
they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin, and encamped in Dophkah.
|
| 033:013 | And
they departed from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush. |
| 033:014 | And
they removed from Alush, and encamped at Rephidim, where was no water for the
people to drink. |
| 033:015 | And
they departed from Rephidim, and pitched in the wilderness of Sinai. |
| 033:016 | And
they removed from the desert of Sinai, and pitched at Kibrothhattaavah. |
| 033:017 | And
they departed from Kibrothhattaavah, and encamped at Hazeroth. |
| 033:018 | And
they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah. |
| 033:019 | And
they departed from Rithmah, and pitched at Rimmonparez. |
| 033:020 | And
they departed from Rimmonparez, and pitched in Libnah. |
| 033:021 | And
they removed from Libnah, and pitched at Rissah. |
| 033:022 | And
they journeyed from Rissah, and pitched in Kehelathah. |
| 033:023 | And
they went from Kehelathah, and pitched in mount Shapher. |
| 033:024 | And
they removed from mount Shapher, and encamped in Haradah. |
| 033:025 | And
they removed from Haradah, and pitched in Makheloth. |
| 033:026 | And
they removed from Makheloth, and encamped at Tahath. |
| 033:027 | And
they departed from Tahath, and pitched at Tarah. |
| 033:028 | And
they removed from Tarah, and pitched in Mithcah. |
| 033:029 | And
they went from Mithcah, and pitched in Hashmonah. |
| 033:030 | And
they departed from Hashmonah, and encamped at Moseroth. |
| 033:031 | And
they departed from Moseroth, and pitched in Benejaakan. |
| 033:032 | And
they removed from Benejaakan, and encamped at Horhagidgad. |
| 033:033 | And
they went from Horhagidgad, and pitched in Jotbathah. |
| 033:034 | And
they removed from Jotbathah, and encamped at Ebronah. |
| 033:035 | And
they departed from Ebronah, and encamped at Eziongaber. |
| 033:036 | And
they removed from Eziongaber, and pitched in the wilderness of Zin, which is
Kadesh. |
| 033:037 | And
they removed from Kadesh, and pitched in mount Hor, in the edge of the land
of Edom. |
| 033:038 | And
Aaron the priest went up into mount Hor at the commandment of the LORD, and
died there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel were come out
of the land of Egypt, in the first day of the fifth month. |
| 033:039 | And
Aaron was an hundred and twenty and three years old when he died in mount Hor.
|
| 033:040 | And
king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south in the land of Canaan, heard
of the coming of the children of Israel. |
| 033:041 | And
they departed from mount Hor, and pitched in Zalmonah. |
| 033:042 | And
they departed from Zalmonah, and pitched in Punon. |
| 033:043 | And
they departed from Punon, and pitched in Oboth. |
| 033:044 | And
they departed from Oboth, and pitched in Ijeabarim, in the border of Moab.
|
| 033:045 | And
they departed from Iim, and pitched in Dibongad. |
| 033:046 | And
they removed from Dibongad, and encamped in Almondiblathaim. |
| 033:047 | And
they removed from Almondiblathaim, and pitched in the mountains of Abarim,
before Nebo. |
| 033:048 | And
they departed from the mountains of Abarim, and pitched in the plains of Moab
by Jordan near Jericho. |
| 033:049 | And
they pitched by Jordan, from Bethjesimoth even unto Abelshittim in the plains
of Moab. |
| 033:050 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
|
| 033:051 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye are passed over Jordan
into the land of Canaan; |
| 033:052 | Then
ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy
all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down
all their high places: |
| 033:053 | And
ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have
given you the land to possess it. |
| 033:054 | And
ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families: and
to the more ye shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give
the less inheritance: every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his
lot falleth; according to the tribes of your fathers ye shall inherit. |
| 033:055 | But
if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then
it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks
in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein
ye dwell. |
| 033:056 | Moreover
it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them.
|
|
| 034:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | | 034:002 | Command
the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan;
(this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land
of Canaan with the coasts thereof:) |
| 034:003 | Then
your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of
Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward:
|
| 034:004 | And
your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on
to Zin: and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea,
and shall go on to Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon: |
| 034:005 | And
the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the
goings out of it shall be at the sea. |
| 034:006 | And
as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this
shall be your west border. |
| 034:007 | And
this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for
you mount Hor: |
| 034:008 | From
mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath; and the
goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad: |
| 034:009 | And
the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazarenan:
this shall be your north border. |
| 034:010 | And
ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham: |
| 034:011 | And
the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and
the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth
eastward: |
| 034:012 | And
the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the
salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about. |
| 034:013 | And
Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall
inherit by lot, which the LORD commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and
to the half tribe: |
| 034:014 | For
the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers,
and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers,
have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received
their inheritance: |
| 034:015 | The
two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side
Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising. |
| 034:016 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 034:017 | These
are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the
priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. |
| 034:018 | And
ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance.
|
| 034:019 | And
the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
|
| 034:020 | And
of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud. |
| 034:021 | Of
the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. |
| 034:022 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli. |
| 034:023 | The
prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh,
Hanniel the son of Ephod. |
| 034:024 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
|
| 034:025 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
|
| 034:026 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
|
| 034:027 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
|
| 034:028 | And
the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.
|
| 034:029 | These
are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children
of Israel in the land of Canaan. |
|
| 035:001
| And
the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
| | 035:002 | Command
the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance
of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give also unto the Levites
suburbs for the cities round about them. |
| 035:003 | And
the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of them shall be for
their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts. |
| 035:004 | And
the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach
from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about. |
| 035:005 | And
ye shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits,
and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand
cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in
the midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities. |
| 035:006 | And
among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites there shall be six cities
for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither:
and to them ye shall add forty and two cities. |
| 035:007 | So
all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight
cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs. |
| 035:008 | And
the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of
Israel: from them that have many ye shall give many; but from them that have
few ye shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites
according to his inheritance which he inheriteth. |
| 035:009 | And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 035:010 | Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan
into the land of Canaan; |
| 035:011 | Then
ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer
may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares. |
| 035:012 | And
they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer
die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment. |
| 035:013 | And
of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge. |
| 035:014 | Ye
shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three cities shall ye give
in the land of Canaan, which shall be cities of refuge. |
| 035:015 | These
six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the
stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that killeth any
person unawares may flee thither. |
| 035:016 | And
if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer:
the murderer shall surely be put to death. |
| 035:017 | And
if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he
is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death. |
| 035:018 | Or
if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die,
he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death. |
| 035:019 | The
revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he
shall slay him. |
| 035:020 | But
if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
|
| 035:021 | Or
in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely
be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the
murderer, when he meeteth him. |
| 035:022 | But
if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without
laying of wait, |
| 035:023 | Or
with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him,
that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm: |
| 035:024 | Then
the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according
to these judgments: |
| 035:025 | And
the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of
blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither
he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which
was anointed with the holy oil. |
| 035:026 | But
if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his
refuge, whither he was fled; |
| 035:027 | And
the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the city of his refuge,
and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
|
| 035:028 | Because
he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high
priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into
the land of his possession. |
| 035:029 | So
these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations
in all your dwellings. |
| 035:030 | Whoso
killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses:
but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die. |
| 035:031 | Moreover
ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of
death: but he shall be surely put to death. |
| 035:032 | And
ye shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the city of his refuge,
that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
|
| 035:033 | So
ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land:
and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the
blood of him that shed it. |
| 035:034 | Defile
not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD
dwell among the children of Israel. |
