1:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in

after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the
number of their names, every male by their polls; |
1:3 |
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. |
1:4 |
And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head

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

Even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and
three thousand and five hundred and fifty. |
1:47 |
But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered
among them. |
1:48 |
For the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying, |
1:49 |
Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the
sum of them among the children of Israel: |
1:50 |
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. |
1:51 |
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. |
1:52 |
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. |
1:53 |
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. |
1:54 |
And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD
commanded Moses, so did they. |
2:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
2:2 |
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. |
2:3 |
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. |

And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty
and five thousand and six hundred and fifty. |
2:16 |
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. |

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. |
2:18 |
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. |

of Ocran. |

and one thousand and five hundred. |
2:29 |
Then the tribe of Naphtali: and the captain of the children of
Naphtali shall be Ahira the son of Enan. |
2:30 |
And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty
and three thousand and four hundred. |
2:31 |
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. |
2:32 |
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. |
2:33 |
But the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
2:34 |
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. |
3:1 |
These also are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day
that the LORD spake with Moses in mount Sinai. |
3:2 |
And these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn,
and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. |
3:3 |
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were
anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office. |
3:4 |
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. |
3:5 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
3:6 |
Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the
priest, that they may minister unto him. |
3:7 |
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. |
3:8 |
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. |
3:9 |
And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they
are wholly given unto him out of the children of Israel. |
3:10 |
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. |
3:11 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
3:12 |
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; |
3:13 |
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. |
3:14 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying, |
3:15 |
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. |
3:16 |
And Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD, as
he was commanded. |
3:17 |
And these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and
Kohath, and Merari. |
3:18 |
And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families;

3:19 |
And the sons of Kohath by their families; Amram, and Izehar,

the Shimites: these are the families of the Gershonites. |
3:22 |
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. |
3:23 |
The families of the Gershonites shall pitch behind the tabernacle
westward. |
3:24 |
And the chief of the house of the father of the Gershonites shall
be Eliasaph the son of Lael. |
3:25 |
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, |
3:26 |
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. |
3:27 |
And of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family
of the Izeharites, and the family of the Hebronites, and the

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. |

3:31 |
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. |
3:32 |
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. |
3:33 |
Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites, and the family of the

3:34 |
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. |
3:35 |
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. |
3:36 |
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, |
3:37 |
And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets,
and their pins, and their cords. |
3:38 |
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. |
3:39 |
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. |
3:40 |
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. |
3:41 |
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. |
3:42 |
And Moses numbered, as the LORD commanded him, all the firstborn
among the children of Israel. |
3:43 |
And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month
old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty
and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen. |
3:44 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
3:45 |
Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children
of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle;
and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD. |
3:46 |
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; |
3:47 |
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:) |
3:48 |
And thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them
is to be redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons. |
3:49 |
And Moses took the redemption money of them that were over and
above them that were redeemed by the Levites: |
3:50 |
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: |
3:51 |
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. |
4:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
4:2 |
Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi,
after their families, by the house of their fathers, |
4:3 |
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. |
4:4 |
This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle
of the congregation, about the most holy things: |
4:5 |
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: |
4:6 |
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. |
4:7 |
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: |
4:8 |
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. |
4:9 |
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: |
4:10 |
And they shall put it and all the vessels thereof within a covering
of badgers' skins, and shall put it upon a bar. |
4:11 |
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: |
4:12 |
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: |
4:13 |
And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread
a purple cloth thereon: |
4:14 |
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. |
4:15 |
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. |
4:16 |
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. |
4:17 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying, |
4:18 |
Cut ye not off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from
among the Levites: |
4:19 |
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: |
4:20 |
But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered,
lest they die. |
4:21 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
4:22 |
Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout the houses
of their fathers, by their families; |
4:23 |
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. |
4:24 |
This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, to serve,
and for burdens: |
4:25 |
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, |
4:26 |
And the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the door of
the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the
altar round about, and their cords, and all the instruments of
their service, and all that is made for them: so shall they serve. |
4:27 |
At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service
of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in
all their service: and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all
their burdens. |
4:28 |
This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in
the tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge shall be
under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. |
4:29 |
As for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them after their
families, by the house of their fathers; |
4:30 |
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. |
4:31 |
And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their
service in the tabernacle of the congregation; the boards of
the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof,
and sockets thereof, |
4:32 |
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. |
4:33 |
This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according
to all their service, in the tabernacle of the congregation,
under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. |
4:34 |
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, |
4:35 |
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: |
4:36 |
And those that were numbered of them by their families were two
thousand seven hundred and fifty. |
4:37 |
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. |
4:38 |
And those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, throughout
their families, and by the house of their fathers, |
4:39 |
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, |
4:40 |
Even those that were numbered of them, throughout their families,
by the house of their fathers, were two thousand and six hundred
and thirty. |
4:41 |
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. |
4:42 |
And those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari,
throughout their families, by the house of their fathers, |
4:43 |
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, |
4:44 |
Even those that were numbered of them after their families, were
three thousand and two hundred. |
4:45 |
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. |
4:46 |
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, |
4:47 |
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. |
4:48 |
Even those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and
five hundred and fourscore, |
4:49 |
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. |
5:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
5:2 |
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: |
5:3 |
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. |
5:4 |
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. |
5:5 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
5:6 |
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; |
5:7 |
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. |
5:8 |
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. |
5:9 |
And every offering of all the holy things of the children of
Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his. |
5:10 |
And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any
man giveth the priest, it shall be his. |
5:11 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
5:12 |
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any
man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him, |
5:13 |
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; |
5:14 |
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: |
5:15 |
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. |
5:16 |
And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD: |
5:17 |
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: |
5:18 |
And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and uncover
the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands,
which is the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in
his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse: |
5:19 |
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: |
5:20 |
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: |
5:21 |
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; |
5:22 |
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. |
5:23 |
And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall
blot them out with the bitter water: |
5:24 |
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. |
5:25 |
Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's
hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and offer
it upon the altar: |
5:26 |
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. |
5:27 |
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. |
5:28 |
And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall
be free, and shall conceive seed. |
5:29 |
This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to another
instead of her husband, and is defiled; |
5:30 |
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. |
5:31 |
Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman
shall bear her iniquity. |
6:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
6:2 |
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: |
6:3 |
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. |
6:4 |
All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made
of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. |
6:5 |
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. |
6:6 |
All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall
come at no dead body. |
6:7 |
He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his
mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because
the consecration of his God is upon his head. |
6:8 |
All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD. |
6:9 |
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. |
6:10 |
And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young
pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation: |
6:11 |
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. |
6:12 |
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. |
6:13 |
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: |
6:14 |
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, |
6:15 |
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. |
6:16 |
And the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall offer
his sin offering, and his burnt offering: |
6:17 |
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. |
6:18 |
And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the
hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire which
is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings. |
6:19 |
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: |
6:20 |
And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the
LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave
shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine. |
6:21 |
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. |
6:22 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
6:23 |
Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall
bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, |
6:24 |
The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: |
6:25 |
The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto
thee: |
6:26 |
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. |
6:27 |
And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I
will bless them. |
7:1 |
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; |
7:2 |
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: |
7:3 |
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. |
7:4 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
7:5 |
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. |
7:6 |
And Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the
Levites. |
7:7 |
Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon, according
to their service: |
7:8 |
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. |
7:9 |
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. |
7:10 |
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. |
7:11 |
And the LORD said unto Moses, They shall offer their offering,
each prince on his day, for the dedicating of the altar. |
7:12 |
And he that offered his offering the first day was Nahshon the
son of Amminadab, of the tribe of Judah: |

And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of the congregation
to speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto
him from off the mercy seat that was upon the ark of testimony,
from between the two cherubims: and he spake unto him. |
8:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
8:2 |
Speak unto Aaron and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps,
the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick. |
8:3 |
And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the
candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses. |
8:4 |
And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, unto the
shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, was beaten work: according
unto the pattern which the LORD had shewed Moses, so he made
the candlestick. |
8:5 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
8:6 |
Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse
them. |
8:7 |
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. |
8:8 |
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. |
8:9 |
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: |
8:10 |
And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children
of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites: |
8:11 |
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. |
8:12 |
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. |
8:13 |
And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons,
and offer them for an offering unto the LORD. |
8:14 |
Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children
of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine. |
8:15 |
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. |
8:16 |
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. |
8:17 |
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. |
8:18 |
And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children
of Israel. |
8:19 |
And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons
from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children
of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to make
an atonement for the children of Israel: that there be no plague
among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come
nigh unto the sanctuary. |
8:20 |
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. |
8:21 |
And the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes;
and Aaron offered them as an offering before the LORD; and Aaron
made an atonement for them to cleanse them. |
8:22 |
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. |
8:23 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
8:24 |
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: |
8:25 |
And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon
the service thereof, and shall serve no more: |
8:26 |
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. |
9:1 |
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, |
9:2 |
Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed
season. |
9:3 |
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. |
9:4 |
And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should
keep the passover. |
9:5 |
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. |
9:6 |
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: |
9:7 |
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? |
9:8 |
And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the
LORD will command concerning you. |
9:9 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
9:10 |
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. |
9:11 |
The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep
it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. |
9:12 |
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. |
9:13 |
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. |
9:14 |
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. |
9:15 |
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. |
9:16 |
So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance
of fire by night. |
9:17 |
And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after
that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where
the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents. |
9:18 |
At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed,
and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched: as long as the
cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents. |
9:19 |
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. |
9:20 |
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. |
9:21 |
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. |
9:22 |
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. |
9:23 |
At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and
at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the
charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand
of Moses. |
10:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
10:2 |
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. |
10:3 |
And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble
themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
10:4 |
And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which
are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves
unto thee. |
10:5 |
When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts
shall go forward. |
10:6 |
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. |
10:7 |
But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall
blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. |
10:8 |
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. |
10:9 |
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. |
10:10 |
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. |
10:11 |
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. |
10:12 |
And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness
of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran. |
10:13 |
And they first took their journey according to the commandment
of the LORD by the hand of Moses. |
10:14 |
In the first place went the standard of the camp of the children
of Judah according to their armies: and over his host was Nahshon
the son of Amminadab. |
10:15 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was
Nethaneel the son of Zuar. |
10:16 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was
Eliab the son of Helon. |
10:17 |
And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and
the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle. |
10:18 |
And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according
to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur. |
10:19 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was
Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. |
10:20 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph
the son of Deuel. |
10:21 |
And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the
other did set up the tabernacle against they came. |
10:22 |
And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward
according to their armies: and over his host was Elishama the
son of Ammihud. |
10:23 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was
Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. |
10:24 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was
Abidan the son of Gideoni. |
10:25 |
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. |
10:26 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel
the son of Ocran. |
10:27 |
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was
Ahira the son of Enan. |
10:28 |
Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according
to their armies, when they set forward. |
10:29 |
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. |
10:30 |
And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine
own land, and to my kindred. |
10:31 |
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. |
10:32 |
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. |
10:33 |
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. |
10:34 |
And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when they went
out of the camp. |
10:35 |
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. |
10:36 |
And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the many thousands
of Israel. |
11:1 |
And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the
LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the
LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost
parts of the camp. |
11:2 |
And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the
LORD, the fire was quenched. |
11:3 |
And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire
of the LORD burnt among them. |
11:4 |
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? |
11:5 |
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: |
11:6 |
But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside
this manna, before our eyes. |
11:7 |
And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as
the colour of bdellium. |
11:8 |
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. |
11:9 |
And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell
upon it. |
11:10 |
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. |
11:11 |
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? |
11:12 |
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? |
11:13 |
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for
they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. |
11:14 |
I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too
heavy for me. |
11:15 |
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. |
11:16 |
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. |
11:17 |
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. |
11:18 |
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. |
11:19 |
Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither
ten days, nor twenty days; |
11:20 |
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? |
11:21 |
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. |
11:22 |
Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice
them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for
them, to suffice them? |
11:23 |
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. |
11:24 |
And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD,
and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and
set them round about the tabernacle. |
11:25 |
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. |
11:26 |
But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the
one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit
rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but
went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the
camp. |
11:27 |
And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and
Medad do prophesy in the camp. |
11:28 |
And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young
men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. |
11:29 |
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! |
11:30 |
And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. |
11:31 |
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. |
11:32 |
And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and
all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered
least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for
themselves round about the camp. |
11:33 |
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. |
11:34 |
And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because
there they buried the people that lusted. |
11:35 |
And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth;
and abode at Hazeroth. |
13:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
13:2 |
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. |
13:3 |
And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness
of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel. |
13:4 |
And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the
son of Zaccur. |
13:5 |
Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. |
13:6 |
Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
13:7 |
Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. |
13:8 |
Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun. |
13:9 |
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. |
13:10 |
Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. |
13:11 |
Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi
the son of Susi. |
13:12 |
Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. |
13:13 |
Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. |
13:14 |
Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. |
13:15 |
Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. |
13:16 |
These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the
land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. |
13:17 |
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: |
13:18 |
And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein,
whether they be strong or weak, few or many; |
13:19 |
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; |
13:20 |
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. |
13:21 |
So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of
Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath. |
13:22 |
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.) |
13:23 |
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. |
13:24 |
The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster
of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence. |
13:25 |
And they returned from searching of the land after forty days. |
13:26 |
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. |
13:27 |
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. |
13:28 |
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. |
13:29 |
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. |
13:30 |
And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go
up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome
it. |
13:31 |
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. |
13:32 |
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. |
13:33 |
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. |
14:1 |
And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and
the people wept that night. |
14:2 |
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! |
14:3 |
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? |
14:4 |
And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let
us return into Egypt. |
14:5 |
Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly
of the congregation of the children of Israel. |
14:6 |
And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which
were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes: |
14:7 |
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. |
14:8 |
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. |
14:9 |
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. |
14:10 |
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. |
14:11 |
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? |
14:12 |
I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and
will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they. |
14:13 |
And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it,
(for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;) |
14:14 |
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. |
14:15 |
Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations
which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying, |
14:16 |
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. |
14:17 |
And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according
as thou hast spoken, saying, |
14:18 |
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. |
14:19 |
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. |
14:20 |
And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word: |
14:21 |
But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the
glory of the LORD. |
14:22 |
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; |
14:23 |
Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers,
neither shall any of them that provoked me see it: |
14:24 |
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. |
14:25 |
(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. |
14:26 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
14:27 |
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. |
14:28 |
Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have
spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: |
14:29 |
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. |
14:30 |
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. |
14:31 |
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. |
14:32 |
But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. |
14:33 |
And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years,
and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the
wilderness. |
14:34 |
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. |
14:35 |
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. |
14:36 |
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, |
14:37 |
Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land,
died by the plague before the LORD. |
14:38 |
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. |
14:39 |
And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel:
and the people mourned greatly. |
14:40 |
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. |
14:41 |
And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment
of the LORD? but it shall not prosper. |
14:42 |
Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten
before your enemies. |
14:43 |
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. |
14:44 |
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. |
14:45 |
Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt
in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto
Hormah. |
15:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
15:2 |
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, |
15:3 |
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: |
15:4 |
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. |
15:5 |
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. |
15:6 |
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. |
15:7 |
And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an
hin of wine, for a sweet savour unto the LORD. |
15:8 |
And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for
a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings unto the
LORD: |
15:9 |
Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth
deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil. |
15:10 |
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. |
15:11 |
Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for
a lamb, or a kid. |
15:12 |
According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do
to every one according to their number. |
15:13 |
All that are born of the country shall do these things after
this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet
savour unto the LORD. |
15:14 |
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. |
15:15 |
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. |
15:16 |
One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger
that sojourneth with you. |
15:17 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
15:18 |
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye
come into the land whither I bring you, |
15:19 |
Then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land,
ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the LORD. |
15:20 |
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. |
15:21 |
Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an heave
offering in your generations. |
15:22 |
And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments,
which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses, |
15:23 |
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; |
15:24 |
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. |
15:25 |
And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation
of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for
it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice
made by fire unto the LORD, and their sin offering before the
LORD, for their ignorance: |
15:26 |
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. |
15:27 |
And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a
she goat of the first year for a sin offering. |
15:28 |
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. |
15:29 |
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. |
15:30 |
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. |
15:31 |
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. |
15:32 |
And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they
found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. |
15:33 |
And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses
and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. |
15:34 |
And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should
be done to him. |
15:35 |
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. |
15:36 |
And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned
him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
15:37 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
15:38 |
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: |
15:39 |
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: |
15:40 |
That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy
unto your God. |
15:41 |
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. |
16:1 |
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi,
and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of
Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men: |
16:2 |
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: |
16:3 |
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? |
16:4 |
And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face: |
16:5 |
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. |
16:6 |
This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company; |
16:7 |
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. |
16:8 |
And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi: |
16:9 |
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? |
16:10 |
And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the
sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also? |
16:11 |
For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together
against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him? |
16:12 |
And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab:
which said, We will not come up: |
16:13 |
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? |
16:14 |
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. |
16:15 |
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. |
16:16 |
And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before
the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow: |
16:17 |
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. |
16:18 |
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. |
16:19 |
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. |
16:20 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
16:21 |
Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may
consume them in a moment. |
16:22 |
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? |
16:23 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
16:24 |
Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the
tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. |
16:25 |
And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders
of Israel followed him. |
16:26 |
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. |
16:27 |
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. |
16:28 |
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. |
16:29 |
If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited
after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hath not sent
me. |
16:30 |
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. |
16:31 |
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: |
16:32 |
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. |
16:33 |
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. |
16:34 |
And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of
them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also. |
16:35 |
And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two
hundred and fifty men that offered incense. |
16:36 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
16:37 |
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. |
16:38 |
The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them
make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they
offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and
they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel. |
16:39 |
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: |
16:40 |
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. |
16:41 |
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. |
16:42 |
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. |
16:43 |
And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation. |
16:44 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
16:45 |
Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them
as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces. |
16:46 |
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. |
16:47 |
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. |
16:48 |
And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague
was stayed. |
16:49 |
Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven
hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah. |
16:50 |
And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation: and the plague was stayed. |
18:1 |
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. |
18:2 |
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. |
18:3 |
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. |
18:4 |
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. |
18:5 |
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. |
18:6 |
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. |
18:7 |
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. |
18:8 |
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. |
18:9 |
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. |
18:10 |
In the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat
it: it shall be holy unto thee. |
18:11 |
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. |
18:12 |
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. |
18:13 |
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. |
18:14 |
Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine. |
18:15 |
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. |
18:16 |
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. |
18:17 |
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. |
18:18 |
And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and
as the right shoulder are thine. |
18:19 |
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. |
18:20 |
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. |
18:21 |
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. |
18:22 |
Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the
tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die. |
18:23 |
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. |
18:24 |
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. |
18:25 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
18:26 |
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. |
18:27 |
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. |
18:28 |
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. |
18:29 |
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. |
18:30 |
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. |
18:31 |
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. |
18:32 |
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. |
19:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, |
19:2 |
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: |
19:3 |
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: |
19:4 |
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: |
19:5 |
And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her
flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn: |
19:6 |
And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet,
and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer. |
19:7 |
Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his
flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and
the priest shall be unclean until the even. |
19:8 |
And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and
bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even. |
19:9 |
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. |
19:10 |
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. |
19:11 |
He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven
days. |
19:12 |
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. |
19:13 |
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. |
19:14 |
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. |
19:15 |
And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it,
is unclean. |
19:16 |
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. |
19:17 |
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: |
19:18 |
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: |
19:19 |
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. |
19:20 |
But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself,
that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation, because
he hath defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water of separation
hath not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean. |
19:21 |
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. |
19:22 |
And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean;
and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even. |
20:1 |
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. |
20:2 |
And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered
themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. |
20:3 |
And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God
that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD! |
20:4 |
And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into
this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? |
20:5 |
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. |
20:6 |
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. |
20:7 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
20:8 |
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. |
20:9 |
And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded
him. |
20:10 |
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? |
20:11 |
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. |
20:12 |
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. |
20:13 |
This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel
strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them. |
20:14 |
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: |
20:15 |
How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt
a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers: |
20:16 |
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: |
20:17 |
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. |
20:18 |
And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come
out against thee with the sword. |
20:19 |
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. |
20:20 |
And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against
him with much people, and with a strong hand. |
20:21 |
Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border:
wherefore Israel turned away from him. |
20:22 |
And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed
from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor. |
20:23 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the
coast of the land of Edom, saying, |
20:24 |
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. |
20:25 |
Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount
Hor: |
20:26 |
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. |
20:27 |
And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount
Hor in the sight of all the congregation. |
20:28 |
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. |
20:29 |
And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned
for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel. |
21:1 |
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. |
21:2 |
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. |
21:3 |
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. |
21:4 |
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. |
21:5 |
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. |
21:6 |
And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit
the people; and much people of Israel died. |
21:7 |
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. |
21:8 |
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. |
21:9 |
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. |
21:10 |
And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth. |
21:11 |
And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the
wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrising. |
21:12 |
From thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared. |
21:13 |
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. |
21:14 |
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, |
21:15 |
And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the dwelling
of Ar, and lieth upon the border of Moab. |
21:16 |
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. |
21:17 |
Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it: |
21:18 |
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: |
21:19 |
And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth: |
21:20 |
And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab,
to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon. |
21:21 |
And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying, |
21:22 |
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. |
21:23 |
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. |
21:24 |
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. |
21:25 |
And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the
cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof. |
21:26 |
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who
had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his
land out of his hand, even unto Arnon. |
21:27 |
Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon,
let the city of Sihon be built and prepared: |
21:28 |
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. |
21:29 |
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. |
21:30 |
We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and
we have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto
Medeba. |
21:31 |
Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. |
21:32 |
And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages
thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there. |
21:33 |
And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the
king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people,
to the battle at Edrei. |
21:34 |
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. |
21:35 |
So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there
was none left him alive: and they possessed his land. |
22:1 |
And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains
of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho. |
22:2 |
And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the
Amorites. |
22:3 |
And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many:
and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel. |
22:4 |
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. |
22:5 |
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: |
22:6 |
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. |
22:7 |
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. |
22:8 |
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. |
22:9 |
And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee? |
22:10 |
And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab,
hath sent unto me, saying, |
22:11 |
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. |
22:12 |
And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt
not curse the people: for they are blessed. |
22:13 |
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. |
22:14 |
And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and
said, Balaam refuseth to come with us. |
22:15 |
And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than
they. |
22:16 |
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: |
22:17 |
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. |
22:18 |
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. |
22:19 |
Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that
I may know what the LORD will say unto me more. |
22:20 |
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. |
22:21 |
And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went
with the princes of Moab. |
22:22 |
And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of
the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he
was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him. |
22:23 |
And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and
his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of
the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to
turn her into the way. |
22:24 |
But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a
wall being on this side, and a wall on that side. |
22:25 |
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. |
22:26 |
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. |
22:27 |
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. |
22:28 |
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? |
22:29 |
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. |
22:30 |
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. |
22:31 |
Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel
of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand:
and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face. |
22:32 |
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: |
22:33 |
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. |
22:34 |
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. |
22:35 |
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. |
22:36 |
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. |
22:37 |
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? |
22:38 |
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. |
22:39 |
And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjathhuzoth. |
22:40 |
And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to
the princes that were with him. |
22:41 |
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. |
23:1 |
And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare
me here seven oxen and seven rams. |
23:2 |
And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered
on every altar a bullock and a ram. |
23:3 |
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. |
23:4 |
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. |
23:5 |
And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto
Balak, and thus thou shalt speak. |
23:6 |
And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice,
he, and all the princes of Moab. |
23:7 |
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. |
23:8 |
How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy,
whom the LORD hath not defied? |
23:9 |
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. |
23:10 |
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! |
23:11 |
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. |
23:12 |
And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that
which the LORD hath put in my mouth? |
23:13 |
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. |
23:14 |
And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah,
and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every
altar. |
23:15 |
And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while
I meet the LORD yonder. |
23:16 |
And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said,
Go again unto Balak, and say thus. |
23:17 |
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? |
23:18 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear;
hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor: |
23:19 |
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? |
23:20 |
Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed;
and I cannot reverse it. |
23:21 |
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. |
23:22 |
God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength
of an unicorn. |
23:23 |
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! |
23:24 |
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. |
23:25 |
And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless
them at all. |
23:26 |
But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying,
All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do? |
23:27 |
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. |
23:28 |
And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward
Jeshimon. |
23:29 |
And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare
me here seven bullocks and seven rams. |
23:30 |
And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a
ram on every altar. |
24:1 |
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. |
24:2 |
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. |
24:3 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor
hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: |
24:4 |
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: |
24:5 |
How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel! |
24:6 |
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. |
24:7 |
He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall
be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and
his kingdom shall be exalted. |
24:8 |
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. |
24:9 |
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. |
24:10 |
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. |
24:11 |
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. |
24:12 |
And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers
which thou sentest unto me, saying, |
24:13 |
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? |
24:14 |
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. |
24:15 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor
hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: |
24:16 |
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: |
24:17 |
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. |
24:18 |
And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession
for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly. |
24:19 |
Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall
destroy him that remaineth of the city. |
24:20 |
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. |
24:21 |
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. |
24:22 |
Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry
thee away captive. |
24:23 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when
God doeth this! |
24:24 |
And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict
Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for
ever. |
24:25 |
And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak
also went his way. |
25:1 |
And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom
with the daughters of Moab. |
25:2 |
And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods:
and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods. |
25:3 |
And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the
LORD was kindled against Israel. |
25:4 |
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. |
25:5 |
And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his
men that were joined unto Baalpeor. |
25:6 |
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. |
25:7 |
And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest,
saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin
in his hand; |
25:8 |
And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust
both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through
her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. |
25:9 |
And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand. |
25:10 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
25:11 |
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. |
25:12 |
Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace: |
25:13 |
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. |
25:14 |
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. |
25:15 |
And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi,
the daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of a chief
house in Midian. |
25:16 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
25:17 |
Vex the Midianites, and smite them: |
25:18 |
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. |
26:1 |
And it came to pass after the plague, that the LORD spake unto
Moses and unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying, |
26:2 |
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. |
26:3 |
And Moses and Eleazar the priest spake with them in the plains
of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying, |
26:4 |
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. |
26:5 |
Reuben, the eldest son of Israel: the children of Reuben; Hanoch,
of whom cometh the family of the Hanochites: of Pallu, the family
of the Palluites: |
26:6 |
Of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites: of Carmi, the family
of the Carmites. |
26:7 |
These are the families of the Reubenites: and they that were
numbered of them were forty and three thousand and seven hundred
and thirty. |
26:8 |
And the sons of Pallu; Eliab. |
26:9 |
And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram. This is
that Dathan and 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: |
26:10 |
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. |
26:11 |
Notwithstanding the children of Korah died not. |
26:12 |
The sons of Simeon after their families: of Nemuel, the family
of the Nemuelites: of Jamin, the family of the Jaminites: of
Jachin, the family of the Jachinites: |
26:13 |
Of Zerah, the family of the Zarhites: of Shaul, the family of
the Shaulites. |
26:14 |
These are the families of the Simeonites, twenty and two thousand
and two hundred. |
26:15 |
The children of Gad after their families: of Zephon, the family
of the Zephonites: of Haggi, the family of the Haggites: of Shuni,
the family of the Shunites: |
26:16 |
Of Ozni, the family of the Oznites: of Eri, the family of the
Erites: |
26:17 |
Of Arod, the family of the Arodites: of Areli, the family of
the Arelites. |
26:18 |
These are the families of the children of Gad according to those
that were numbered of them, forty thousand and five hundred. |
26:19 |
The sons of Judah were Er and Onan: and Er and Onan died in the
land of Canaan. |
26:20 |
And the sons of Judah after their families were; of Shelah, the
family of the Shelanites: of Pharez, the family of the Pharzites:
of Zerah, the family of the Zarhites. |
26:21 |
And the sons of Pharez were; of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites:
of Hamul, the family of the Hamulites. |
26:22 |
These are the families of Judah according to those that were
numbered of them, threescore and sixteen thousand and five hundred. |
26:23 |
Of the sons of Issachar after their families: of Tola, the family

Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according
to the number of names. |
26:54 |
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. |
26:55 |
Notwithstanding the land shall be divided by lot: according to
the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit. |
26:56 |
According to the lot shall the possession thereof be divided
between many and few. |

26:62 |
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. |
26:63 |
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. |
26:64 |
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. |
26:65 |
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. |
27:1 |
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. |
27:2 |
And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and
before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, saying, |
27:3 |
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. |
27:4 |
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. |
27:5 |
And Moses brought their cause before the LORD. |
27:6 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
27:7 |
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. |
27:8 |
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. |
27:9 |
And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance
unto his brethren. |
27:10 |
And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance
unto his father's brethren. |
27:11 |
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. |
27:12 |
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. |
27:13 |
And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto
thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered. |
27:14 |
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. |
27:15 |
And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying, |
27:16 |
Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man
over the congregation, |
27:17 |
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. |
27:18 |
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; |
27:19 |
And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation;
and give him a charge in their sight. |
27:20 |
And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the
congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient. |
27:21 |
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. |
27:22 |
And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua,
and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation: |
27:23 |
And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the
LORD commanded by the hand of Moses. |
28:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
28:2 |
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. |
28:3 |
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. |
28:4 |
The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb
shalt thou offer at even; |
28:5 |
And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled
with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil. |
28:6 |
It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount
Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. |
28:7 |
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. |
28:8 |
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. |
28:9 |
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: |
28:10 |
This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual
burnt offering, and his drink offering. |
28:11 |
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; |
28:12 |
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; |
28:13 |
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. |
28:14 |
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. |
28:15 |
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. |
28:16 |
And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover
of the LORD. |
28:17 |
And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days
shall unleavened bread be eaten. |
28:18 |
In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no
manner of servile work therein: |
28:19 |
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: |
28:20 |
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; |
28:21 |
A several tenth deal shalt thou offer for every lamb, throughout
the seven lambs: |
28:22 |
And one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you. |
28:23 |
Ye shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning,
which is for a continual burnt offering. |
28:24 |
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. |
28:25 |
And on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye
shall do no servile work. |
28:26 |
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: |
28:27 |
But ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savour unto

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. |
29:7 |
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: |
29:8 |
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: |

and for your meat offerings, and for your drink offerings, and

29:40 |
And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the
LORD commanded Moses. |
30:1 |
And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children
of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded. |
30:2 |
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. |
30:3 |
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; |
30:4 |
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. |
30:5 |
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. |
30:6 |
And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered
ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul; |
30:7 |
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. |
30:8 |
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. |
30:9 |
But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith
they have bound their souls, shall stand against her. |
30:10 |
And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by
a bond with an oath; |
30:11 |
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. |
30:12 |
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. |
30:13 |
Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband
may establish it, or her husband may make it void. |
30:14 |
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. |
30:15 |
But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard
them; then he shall bear her iniquity. |
30:16 |
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. |
31:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
31:2 |
Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt
thou be gathered unto thy people. |
31:3 |
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. |
31:4 |
Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel,
shall ye send to the war. |
31:5 |
So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand
of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. |
31:6 |
And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them
and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with
the holy instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his hand. |
31:7 |
And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded
Moses; and they slew all the males. |
31:8 |
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. |
31:9 |
And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives,
and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle,
and all their flocks, and all their goods. |
31:10 |
And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their
goodly castles, with fire. |
31:11 |
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and
of beasts. |
31:12 |
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. |
31:13 |
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the
congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp. |
31:14 |
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains
over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the
battle. |
31:15 |
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? |
31:16 |
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. |
31:17 |
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill
every woman that hath known man by lying with him. |
31:18 |
But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying
with him, keep alive for yourselves. |
31:19 |
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. |
31:20 |
And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and
all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood. |
31:21 |
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; |
31:22 |
Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin,
and the lead, |
31:23 |
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. |
31:24 |
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall
be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp. |
31:25 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
31:26 |
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: |
31:27 |
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: |
31:28 |
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: |
31:29 |
Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for
an heave offering of the LORD. |
31:30 |
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. |
31:31 |
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses. |
31:32 |
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, |
31:33 |
And threescore and twelve thousand beeves, |
31:34 |
And threescore and one thousand asses, |
31:35 |
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had
not known man by lying with him. |
31:36 |
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: |
31:37 |
And the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore
and fifteen. |
31:38 |
And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD's
tribute was threescore and twelve. |
31:39 |
And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which
the LORD's tribute was threescore and one. |
31:40 |
And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's tribute
was thirty and two persons. |
31:41 |
And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave offering,
unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses. |
31:42 |
And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from
the men that warred, |
31:43 |
(Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three
hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five
hundred sheep, |
31:44 |
And thirty and six thousand beeves, |
31:45 |
And thirty thousand asses and five hundred, |
31:46 |
And sixteen thousand persons;) |
31:47 |
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. |
31:48 |
And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains
of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses: |
31:49 |
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. |
31:50 |
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. |
31:51 |
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even
all wrought jewels. |
31:52 |
And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the
LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds,
was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels. |
31:53 |
(For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.) |
31:54 |
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. |
32:1 |
Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very
great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer,
and the land of Gilead, that, behold, the place was a place for
cattle; |
32:2 |
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, |
32:3 |
Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh,
and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon, |
32:4 |
Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation
of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle: |
32:5 |
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. |
32:6 |
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? |
32:7 |
And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel
from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them? |
32:8 |
Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to
see the land. |
32:9 |
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. |
32:10 |
And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware,
saying, |
32:11 |
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: |
32:12 |
Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the
son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD. |
32:13 |
And the LORD's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made
them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation,
that had done evil in the sight of the LORD, was consumed. |
32:14 |
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. |
32:15 |
For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them
in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people. |
32:16 |
And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds
here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones: |
32:17 |
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. |
32:18 |
We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel
have inherited every man his inheritance. |
32:19 |
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. |
32:20 |
And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will
go armed before the LORD to war, |
32:21 |
And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until
he hath driven out his enemies from before him, |
32:22 |
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. |
32:23 |
But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the
LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out. |
32:24 |
Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep;
and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth. |
32:25 |
And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto
Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth. |
32:26 |
Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall
be there in the cities of Gilead: |
32:27 |
But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before
the Lord to battle, as my lord saith. |
32:28 |
So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua
the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children
of Israel: |
32:29 |
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: |
32:30 |
But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have
possessions among you in the land of Canaan. |
32:31 |
And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered,
saying, As the LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we do. |
32:32 |
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. |
32:33 |
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. |
32:34 |
And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer, |
32:35 |
And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah, |
32:36 |
And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep. |
32:37 |
And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim, |
32:38 |
And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah:
and gave other names unto the cities which they builded. |
32:39 |
And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead,
and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it. |
32:40 |
And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh; and he
dwelt therein. |
32:41 |
And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns thereof,
and called them Havothjair. |
32:42 |
And Nobah went and took Kenath, and the villages thereof, and
called it Nobah, after his own name. |
33:1 |
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. |
33:2 |
And Moses wrote their goings out according to their journeys
by the commandment of the LORD: and these are their journeys
according to their goings out. |
33:3 |
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. |
33:4 |
For the Egyptians buried all their firstborn, which the LORD
had smitten among them: upon their gods also the LORD executed
judgments. |
33:5 |
And the children of Israel removed from Rameses, and pitched
in Succoth. |
33:6 |
And they departed from Succoth, and pitched in Etham, which is
in the edge of the wilderness. |
33:7 |
And they removed from Etham, and turned again unto Pihahiroth,
which is before Baalzephon: and they pitched before Migdol. |
33:8 |
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. |
33:9 |
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. |
33:10 |
And they removed from Elim, and encamped by the Red sea. |
33:11 |
And they removed from the Red sea, and encamped in the wilderness
of Sin. |
33:12 |
And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin, and
encamped in Dophkah. |
33:13 |
And they departed from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush. |
33:14 |
And they removed from Alush, and encamped at Rephidim, where
was no water for the people to drink. |
33:15 |
And they departed from Rephidim, and pitched in the wilderness
of Sinai. |
33:16 |
And they removed from the desert of Sinai, and pitched at Kibrothhattaavah. |
33:17 |
And they departed from Kibrothhattaavah, and encamped at Hazeroth. |
33:18 |
And they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah. |
33:19 |
And they departed from Rithmah, and pitched at Rimmonparez. |
33:20 |
And they departed from Rimmonparez, and pitched in Libnah. |
33:21 |
And they removed from Libnah, and pitched at Rissah. |
33:22 |
And they journeyed from Rissah, and pitched in Kehelathah. |
33:23 |
And they went from Kehelathah, and pitched in mount Shapher. |
33:24 |
And they removed from mount Shapher, and encamped in Haradah. |
33:25 |
And they removed from Haradah, and pitched in Makheloth. |
33:26 |
And they removed from Makheloth, and encamped at Tahath. |
33:27 |
And they departed from Tahath, and pitched at Tarah. |
33:28 |
And they removed from Tarah, and pitched in Mithcah. |
33:29 |
And they went from Mithcah, and pitched in Hashmonah. |
33:30 |
And they departed from Hashmonah, and encamped at Moseroth. |
33:31 |
And they departed from Moseroth, and pitched in Benejaakan. |
33:32 |
And they removed from Benejaakan, and encamped at Horhagidgad. |
33:33 |
And they went from Horhagidgad, and pitched in Jotbathah. |
33:34 |
And they removed from Jotbathah, and encamped at Ebronah. |
33:35 |
And they departed from Ebronah, and encamped at Eziongaber. |
33:36 |
And they removed from Eziongaber, and pitched in the wilderness
of Zin, which is Kadesh. |
33:37 |
And they removed from Kadesh, and pitched in mount Hor, in the
edge of the land of Edom. |
33:38 |
And Aaron the priest went up into mount Hor at the commandment
of the LORD, and died there, in the fortieth year after the children
of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the first day
of the fifth month. |
33:39 |
And Aaron was an hundred and twenty and three years old when
he died in mount Hor. |
33:40 |
And king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south in the
land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel. |
33:41 |
And they departed from mount Hor, and pitched in Zalmonah. |
33:42 |
And they departed from Zalmonah, and pitched in Punon. |
33:43 |
And they departed from Punon, and pitched in Oboth. |
33:44 |
And they departed from Oboth, and pitched in Ijeabarim, in the
border of Moab. |
33:45 |
And they departed from Iim, and pitched in Dibongad. |
33:46 |
And they removed from Dibongad, and encamped in Almondiblathaim. |
33:47 |
And they removed from Almondiblathaim, and pitched in the mountains
of Abarim, before Nebo. |
33:48 |
And they departed from the mountains of Abarim, and pitched in
the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho. |
33:49 |
And they pitched by Jordan, from Bethjesimoth even unto Abelshittim
in the plains of Moab. |
33:50 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan
near Jericho, saying, |
33:51 |
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye
are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan; |
33:52 |
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: |
33:53 |
And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell
therein: for I have given you the land to possess it. |
33:54 |
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. |
33:55 |
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. |
33:56 |
Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as
I thought to do unto them. |
34:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
34:2 |
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:) |
34:3 |
Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along
by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost
coast of the salt sea eastward: |
34:4 |
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: |
34:5 |
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. |
34:6 |
And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea
for a border: this shall be your west border. |
34:7 |
And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall
point out for you mount Hor: |
34:8 |
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: |
34:9 |
And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of
it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border. |
34:10 |
And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham: |
34:11 |
And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east
side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto
the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward: |
34:12 |
And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of
it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the
coasts thereof round about. |
34:13 |
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: |
34:14 |
For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house
of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according
to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance;
and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance: |
34:15 |
The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance
on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising. |
34:16 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
34:17 |
These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto
you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. |
34:18 |
And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land
by inheritance. |
34:19 |
And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb
the son of Jephunneh. |
34:20 |
And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of
Ammihud. |
34:21 |
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. |
34:22 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the
son of Jogli. |
34:23 |
The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children
of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod. |
34:24 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel
the son of Shiphtan. |
34:25 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan
the son of Parnach. |
34:26 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel
the son of Azzan. |
34:27 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud
the son of Shelomi. |
34:28 |
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel
the son of Ammihud. |
34:29 |
These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance
unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan. |
35:1 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan
near Jericho, saying, |
35:2 |
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. |
35:3 |
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. |
35:4 |
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. |
35:5 |
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. |
35:6 |
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. |
35:7 |
So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be
forty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs. |
35:8 |
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. |
35:9 |
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
35:10 |
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye
be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan; |
35:11 |
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. |
35:12 |
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. |
35:13 |
And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have
for refuge. |
35:14 |
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. |
35:15 |
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. |
35:16 |
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. |
35:17 |
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. |
35:18 |
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. |
35:19 |
The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he
meeteth him, he shall slay him. |
35:20 |
But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait,
that he die; |
35:21 |
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. |
35:22 |
But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon
him any thing without laying of wait, |
35:23 |
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: |
35:24 |
Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the
revenger of blood according to these judgments: |
35:25 |
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. |
35:26 |
But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of
the city of his refuge, whither he was fled; |
35:27 |
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: |
35:28 |
Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until
the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high
priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession. |
35:29 |
So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout
your generations in all your dwellings. |
35:30 |
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. |
35:31 |
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. |
35:32 |
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. |
35:33 |
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. |
35:34 |
Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein
I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel. |
