¹ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying, ² Reuenge the children of Israel of the Midianites, and afterwarde shalt thou be gathered vnto thy people. ³ And Moses spake to the people, saying, Harnesse some of you vnto warre, and let them goe against Midian, to execute the vengeance of the Lord against Midian. ⁴ A thousande of euery tribe throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye sende to the warre. ⁵ So there were taken out of the thousands of Israel, twelue thousande prepared vnto warre, of euery tribe a thousand. ⁶ And Moses sent them to the warre, euen a thousand of euery tribe, and sent them with Phinehas the sonne of Eleazar the Priest to the warre: and the holy instruments, that is, the trumpets to blow were in his hand. ⁷ And they warred against Midian, as the Lord had commanded Moses, and slue all the males. ⁸ They slue also the Kings of Midian among them that were slaine: Eui and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur and Reba fiue kings of Midian, and they slue Balaam the sonne of Beor with the sworde: ⁹ But the children of Israel tooke the women of Midian prisoners, and their children, and spoyled all their cattell, and all their flockes, and all their goods. ¹⁰ And they burnt all their cities, wherein they dwelt, and all their villages with fire. ¹¹ And they tooke all the spoyle and all the pray both of men and beastes. ¹² And they brought the captiues and that which they had taken, and the spoyle vnto Moses and to Eleazar the Priest, and vnto the Congregation of the children of Israel, into ye campe in the playne of Moab, which was by Iorden toward Iericho. ¹³ Then Moses and Eleazar the Priest, and all the princes of the Congregation went out of the campe to meete them. ¹⁴ And Moses was angry with the captaines of the hoste, with the captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer hundreds, which came from the warre and battel. ¹⁵ And Moses sayde vnto them, What? haue ye saued all the women? ¹⁶ Behold, these caused the children of Israel through the counsell of Balaam to commit a trespasse against the Lord, as concerning Peor, and there came a plague among the Congregation of the Lord. ¹⁷ Now therefore, slay all the males among the children, and kill all the women that haue knowen man by carnall copulation. ¹⁸ But all the women children that haue not knowen carnall copulation, keepe aliue for your selues. ¹⁹ And ye shall remaine without the host seuen dayes, all that haue killed any person, and all that haue touched any dead, and purifie both your selues and your prisoners the third day and the seuenth. ²⁰ Also ye shall purifie euery garment and all that is made of skins and al worke of goates heare, and all things made of wood. ²¹ And Eleazar ye Priest sayd vnto the men of warre, which went to the battel, This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord commanded Moses, ²² As for gold, and siluer, brasse, yron, tynne, and lead: ²³ Euen all that may abide the fire, yee shall make it goe through the fire, and it shalbe cleane: yet, it shalbe purified with the water of purification: and all that suffereth not the fire, yee shall cause to passe by the water. ²⁴ Ye shall wash also your clothes the seuenth day, and ye shalbe cleane: and afterward ye shall come into the Hoste. ²⁵ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying, ²⁶ Take the summe of the praie that was taken, both of persons and of cattell, thou and Eleazar the Priest, and the chiefe fathers of the Congregation. ²⁷ And deuide the praye betweene the souldiers that went to the warre, and all the Congregation. ²⁸ And thou shalt take a tribute vnto ye Lord of the men of warre, which went out to battel: one person of fiue hundreth, both of the persons, and of the beeues, and of the asses, and of the sheepe. ²⁹ Yee shall take it of their halfe and giue it vnto Eleazar the Priest, as an heaue offring of the Lord. ³⁰ But of the halfe of the children of Israel thou shalt take one, taken out of fiftie, both of the persons, of the beeues, of the asses, and of the sheepe, euen of all the cattel: and thou shalt giue them vnto the Leuites, which haue the charge of the Tabernacle of the Lord. ³¹ And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord had commanded Moses. ³² And the bootie, to wit, the rest of the praie which the men of warre had spoyled, was sixe hundreth seuentie and fiue thousand sheepe, ³³ And seuentie and two thousand beeues, ³⁴ And three score and one thousand asses, ³⁵ And two and thirtie thousande persons in all, of women that had lyen by no man. ³⁶ And the halfe, to wit, the part of them that went out to warre touching the nomber of sheepe, was three hundreth seuen and thirtie thousand, and fiue hundreth. ³⁷ And the Lordes tribute of the sheepe was sixe hundreth and seuentie and fiue: ³⁸ And the beeues were six and thirty thousad, whereof the Lordes tribute was seuentie and two. ³⁹ And the asses were thirtie thousande and fiue hundreth, whereof the Lordes tribute was three score and one: ⁴⁰ And of persons sixtene thousand, whereof the Lordes tribute was two and thirtie persons. ⁴¹ And Moses gaue the tribute of the Lordes offring vnto Eleazar the Priest, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ⁴² And of the halfe of the children of Israel, which Moses deuided from the men of warre, ⁴³ (For the halfe that perteined vnto the Congregation, was three hundreth thirtie and seuen thousand sheepe and fiue hundreth, ⁴⁴ And sixe and thirtie thousand beeues, ⁴⁵ And thirtie thousand asses, and fiue hudreth, ⁴⁶ And sixteene thousande persons) ⁴⁷ Moses, I say, tooke of the halfe that perteined vnto the children of Israel, one taken out of fiftie, both of the persons, and of the cattell, and gaue them vnto the Leuites, which haue the charge of the Tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ⁴⁸ Then the captaines which were ouer thousandes of the hoste, the captaines ouer the thousandes, and the captaines ouer the hundreds came vnto Moses: ⁴⁹ And saide to Moses, Thy seruants haue taken the summe of the men of warre which are vnder our authoritie, and there lacketh not one man of vs. ⁵⁰ We haue therefore brought a present vnto the Lord, what euery man found of iewels of golde, bracelets, and cheines, rings, eare ringes, and ornaments of the legges, to make an atonement for our soules before the Lord. ⁵¹ And Moses and Eleazar the Priest tooke the golde of them, and all wrought iewels, ⁵² And all the golde of the offring that they offered vp to the Lord (of the captaines ouer thousands and hundreds) was sixteene thousande seuen hundreth and fiftie shekels, ⁵³ (For the men of warre had spoyled, euery man for him selfe) ⁵⁴ And Moses and Eleazar the Priest tooke the golde of the captaines ouer the thousandes, and ouer the hundreds, and brought it into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, for a memoriall of the children of Israel before the Lord.

¹ Now after this so it was, that Absalom the sonne of Dauid hauing a fayre sister, whose name was Tamar, Amnon the sonne of Dauid loued her. ² And Amnon was so sore vexed, that he fell sicke for his sister Tamar: for she was a virgin, and it seemed hard to Amnon to doe any thing to her. ³ But Amnon had a friend called Ionadab, the sonne of Shimeah Dauids brother: and Ionadab was a very subtile man. ⁴ Who sayde vnto him, Why art thou the Kings sonne so leane from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? Then Amnon answered him, I loue Tamar my brother Absaloms sister. ⁵ And Ionadab sayd vnto him, Lie downe on thy bed, and make thy selfe sicke: and when thy father shall come to see thee, say vnto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and giue me meate, and let her dresse meate in my sight, that I may see it, and eate it of her hand. ⁶ So Amnon lay downe, and made himselfe sicke: and when the King came to see him, Amnon sayde vnto the King, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may receiue meate at her hand. ⁷ Then Dauid sent home to Tamar, saying, Goe now to thy brother Amnons house, and dresse him meate. ⁸ So Tamar went to her brother Amnons house, and he lay downe: and she tooke floure, and knead it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes. ⁹ And she tooke a pan, and powred them out before him, but he would not eat. Then Amnon saide, Cause ye euery man to goe out from me: so euery man went out from him. ¹⁰ Then Amnon said vnto Tamar, Bring the meate into the chamber, that I may eate of thine hand. And Tamar tooke the cakes which shee had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother. ¹¹ And when she had set them before him to eate, he tooke her, and sayd vnto her, Come, lye with me, my sister. ¹² But shee answered him, Nay, my brother, doe not force me: for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: commit not this follie. ¹³ And I, whither shall I cause my shame to goe? and thou shalt be as one of the fooles in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, speake to the King, for he will not denie me vnto thee. ¹⁴ Howbeit he would not hearken vnto her voyce, but being stronger then she, forced her, and lay with her. ¹⁵ Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred wherewith he hated her, was greater then the loue, wherewith hee had loued her: and Amnon sayde vnto her, Vp, get thee hence. ¹⁶ And she answered him, There is no cause: this euill (to put mee away) is greater then the other that thou diddest vnto me: but he would not heare her, ¹⁷ But called his seruant that serued him, and sayd, Put this woman now out from me, and locke the doore after her. ¹⁸ (And she had a garment of diuers coulours vpon her: for with such garments were the Kings daughters that were virgins, apparelled) Then his seruant brought her out, and locked the doore after her. ¹⁹ And Tamar put ashes on her head and rent the garment of diuers colours which was on her, and layde her hand on her head, and went her way crying. ²⁰ And Absalom her brother sayd vnto her, Hath Amnon thy brother bene with thee? Now yet be still, my sister: he is thy brother: let not this thing grieue thine heart. So Tamar remayned desolate in her brother Absaloms house. ²¹ But when King Dauid heard all these things, he was very wroth. ²² And Absalom sayde vnto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar. ²³ And after the time of two yeeres, Absalom had sheepesherers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim, and Absalom called all the Kings sonnes. ²⁴ And Absalom came to the King and sayd, Beholde now, thy seruant hath sheepesherers: I pray thee, that the King with his seruants would goe with thy seruant. ²⁵ But the King answered Absalom, Nay my sonne, I pray thee, let vs not goe all, lest we be chargeable vnto thee. Yet Absalom lay sore vpon him: howbeit he would not go, but thanked him. ²⁶ Then sayd Absalom, But, I pray thee, shall not my brother Amnon goe with vs? And the king answered him, Why should he go with thee? ²⁷ But Absalom was instant vpon him, and he sent Amnon with him, and all the Kings children. ²⁸ Now had Absalom commanded his seruants, saying, Marke now when Amnons heart is merry with wine, and when I say vnto you, Smite Amnon, kill him, feare not, for haue not I commanded you? be bold therefore, and play the men. ²⁹ And the seruantes of Absalom did vnto Amnon, as Absalom had commanded: and al the Kings sonnes arose, and euery man gate him vp vpon his mule, and fled. ³⁰ And while they were in the way, tydings came to Dauid, saying, Absalom hath slaine al the Kings sonnes, and there is not one of them left. ³¹ Then the King arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the ground, and all his seruants stoode by with their clothes rent. ³² And Ionadab the sonne of Shimeah Dauids brother answered and sayde, Let not my lord suppose that they haue slayne all the yong men the Kings sonnes: for Amnon onely is dead, because Absalom had reported so, since hee forced his sister Tamar. ³³ Nowe therefore let not my lord the King take the thing so grieuously, to thinke that all ye Kings sonnes are dead: for Amnon only is dead. ³⁴ Then Absalom fled: and the yong man that kept the watch, lift vp his eyes, and looked, and behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behinde him. ³⁵ And Ionadab said vnto the King, Behold, ye Kings sonnes come: as thy seruant sayd, so it is. ³⁶ And assoone as hee had left speaking, behold, the Kings sonnes came, and lift vp their voyces, and wept: and the King also and all his seruants wept exceedingly sore. ³⁷ But Absalom fled away, and went to Talmai the sonne of Ammihur King of Geshur: and Dauid mourned for his sonne euery day. ³⁸ So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three yeeres. ³⁹ And King Dauid desired to go forth vnto Absalom, because he was pacified concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.

²⁵ But if a man finde a betrothed mayde in the field, and force her, and lye with her, then the man that lay with her, shall dye alone: ²⁶ And vnto the mayd thou shalt do nothing, because there is in the mayde no cause of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour and woundeth him to death, so is this matter. ²⁷ For he found her in the fieldes: the betrothed mayde cryed, and there was no man to succour her. ²⁸ If a man finde a mayde that is not betrothed, and take her, and lye with her, and they be founde,

²³ If a maid be betrothed vnto an husband, and a man finde her in the towne and lye with her, ²⁴ Then shall yee bring them both out vnto the gates of the same citie, and shall stone them with stones to death: the mayde because she cried not, being in the citie, and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbours wife: so thou shalt put away euill from among you.

²⁸ If a man finde a mayde that is not betrothed, and take her, and lye with her, and they be founde, ²⁹ Then the man that lay with her, shall giue vnto the maydes father fiftie shekels of siluer: and she shalbe his wife, because he hath humbled her: he can not put her away all his life.
