Away, to your burdens! <sup>5</sup> And Pharaoh said, Behold the people of the land are now many, and ye wish to make them rest from their burdens. <sup>6</sup> And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying, <sup>7</sup> Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves. <sup>8</sup> And the number of the bricks they have made heretofore shall ye lay upon them: ye shall not diminish any of it, for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go [and] sacrifice to our God. <sup>9</sup> Let them put heavier labour on the men, that they may be taken up with it, and not regard vain words. <sup>10</sup> And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people, saying, Thus says Pharaoh: I will not give you straw: <sup>11</sup> go ye, get yourselves straw where ye may find it; but none of your work shall be diminished. <sup>12</sup> And the people were scattered abroad throughout the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw. <sup>13</sup> And the taskmasters urged [them], saying, Fulfil your labours, the daily work, as when there was straw. <sup>14</sup> And the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh`s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, [and] it was said, Why have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick, both yesterday and to-day, as heretofore? ¹⁵ Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, saying, Why dost thou deal thus with thy bondmen? ¹⁶ There is no straw given to thy bondmen, and they say to us, Make brick; and behold, thy bondmen are beaten, but it is the fault of thy people. ¹⁷ And he said, Ye are idle, idle! therefore ye say, Let us go and sacrifice to Jehovah. ¹⁸ And now go -- work! and straw shall not be given you, and ye shall deliver the measure of bricks. ¹⁹ And the officers of the children of Israel saw [that] it stood ill with them, because it was said, Ye shall not diminish anything from your bricks, the daily work. ²⁰ And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood there to meet them, as they came out from Pharaoh. ²¹ And they said to them, Jehovah look upon you and judge, that ye have made our odour to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his bondmen, putting a sword into their hand to kill us! ²² And Moses returned to Jehovah, and said, Lord, why hast thou done evil to this people? why now hast thou sent me? ²³ For ever since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all!

⁴ And I established also my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they were sojourners. ⁵ And I have heard also the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians have forced to serve, and I have remembered my covenant. ⁶ Therefore say unto the children of Israel, I am Jehovah, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their service, and I will redeem you with a stretched-out arm, and with great judgments.

¹ And Jehovah said to Moses, See, I have made thee God to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet. ² Thou shalt speak all that I command thee; and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land. ³ And I will render Pharaoh`s heart obdurate, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt. <sup>4</sup> And Pharaoh will not hearken unto you; and I will lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth my hosts, my people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments. <sup>5</sup> And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I stretch forth my hand on Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them. <sup>6</sup> And Moses and Aaron did as Jehovah had commanded them: so did they. <sup>7</sup> And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron was eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh. <sup>8</sup> And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, <sup>9</sup> When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Do a miracle for yourselves, -- then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy staff and cast [it] before Pharaoh -- it will become a serpent. <sup>10</sup> And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and did so, as Jehovah had commanded; and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh, and before his bondmen, and it became a serpent. <sup>11</sup> And Pharaoh also called the sages and the sorcerers; and they too, the scribes of Egypt, did so with their enchantments: <sup>12</sup> they cast down every man his staff, and they became serpents; but Aaron`s staff swallowed up their staves. ¹³ And Pharaoh`s heart was stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said. <sup>14</sup> And Jehovah said to Moses, Pharaoh`s heart is hardened: he refuseth to let the people go.

³² Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also. ³³ And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead [men]! ³⁴ And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders. ³⁵ And the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked of the Egyptians utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and clothing. ³⁶ And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians. ³⁷ And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, besides children. ³⁸ And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds -- very much cattle.

²⁷ I will send my fear before thee, and confound every people to which thou comest, and will make all thine enemies turn their back to thee. ²⁸ And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.

²⁸ And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. ²⁹ I will not drive them out from before thee in one year: lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. ³⁰ By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou art fruitful, and possess the land. ³¹ And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the river; for I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, that thou mayest dispossess them from before thee.

¹³ Remember Abraham, Isaac and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thyself, and saidst to them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give to your seed, and they shall possess [it] for ever!

² (and I will send an angel before thee, and dispossess the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite,)

¹¹ Observe what I command thee this day: behold, I will drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

³ If his offering be a burnt-offering of the herd, he shall present it a male without blemish: at the entrance of the tent of meeting shall he present it, for his acceptance before Jehovah.

¹⁰ And if his offering be of the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt-offering, he shall present it a male without blemish.

¹⁴ And if his offering to Jehovah be a burnt-offering of fowls, then he shall present his offering of turtle-doves, or of young pigeons.

¹⁷ and he shall split it open at its wings, [but] shall not divide [it] asunder; and the priest shall burn it on the altar on the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt-offering, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.

¹ And if his offering be a sacrifice of peace-offering, -- if he present [it] of the herd, whether a male or female, he shall present it without blemish before Jehovah.

⁶ And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace-offering to Jehovah be of small cattle, male or female, he shall present it without blemish.

² and said to Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, without blemish, and present [them] before Jehovah;

⁴ and a bullock and a ram for a peace-offering, to sacrifice before Jehovah; and an oblation mingled with oil; for to-day Jehovah will appear to you.

⁸ And if her hand cannot find what is sufficient for a sheep, she shall bring two turtle-doves or two young pigeons; one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her; and she shall be clean.

²² and two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, as his hand may be able to get: the one shall be a sin-offering, and the other a burnt-offering.

³⁰ And he shall offer one of the turtle-doves, or of the young pigeons, of what his hand was able to get;

³⁴ As one born among you shall the stranger who sojourneth with you be unto you; and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.

⁶ And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I Jehovah will make myself known to him in a vision, I will speak to him in a dream.

²⁴ Aaron shall be gathered unto his peoples; for he shall not enter into the land that I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my commandment at the waters of Meribah.

²¹ And he saw the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Firm is thy dwelling-place, and thy nest fixed in the rock; ²² But the Kenite shall be consumed, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.

¹³ And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy peoples, as Aaron thy brother was gathered,

² Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan, this shall be the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan according to the borders thereof. ³ Then your south side shall be from the wilderness of Zin alongside of Edom, and your southern border shall be from the end of the salt sea eastward;

⁵ And the border shall turn from Azmon unto the torrent of Egypt, and shall end at the sea.

⁷ Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill-country of the Amorites, and unto all the neighbouring places in the plain, in the mountain, and in the lowland, and in the south, and by the seaside, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. ⁸ Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

¹⁰ Jehovah your God hath multiplied you, and behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

²⁰ But you hath Jehovah taken, and hath brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, that ye might be to him a people of inheritance, as it is this day.

²² and Jehovah shewed signs and wonders, great and grievous, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes;

¹ When Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and shall cast out many nations from before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou,

¹⁸ fear them not; remember well what Jehovah thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all the Egyptians; ¹⁹ the great trials which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the powerful hand, and the stretched-out arm, whereby Jehovah thy God brought thee out: so will Jehovah thy God do unto all the peoples whom thou fearest.

¹⁹ And ye shall love the stranger; for ye have been strangers in the land of Egypt.

²² With seventy souls thy fathers went down into Egypt; and now Jehovah thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.

² And know ye this day ...; for [I speak] not with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, his greatness, his powerful hand, and his stretched-out arm, ³ and his signs and his acts which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land; ⁴ and what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and unto their chariots, over which he made the water of the Red sea flow as they pursued after you, and Jehovah destroyed them unto this day;

²⁴ Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours; from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the hinder sea shall your border be.

⁶ Be strong and courageous, fear them not, neither be afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God, he it is that goeth with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee.

²⁶ There is none like unto the ?God of Jeshurun, Who rideth upon the heavens to thy help, And in his majesty, upon the clouds. ²⁷ [Thy] refuge is the God of old, And underneath are the eternal arms; And he shall drive out the enemy from before thee, And shall say, Destroy [them]! ²⁸ And Israel shall dwell in safety alone, The fountain of Jacob, in a land of corn and new wine; Also his heavens shall drop down dew. ²⁹ Happy art thou, Israel! Who is like unto thee, a people saved by Jehovah, The shield of thy help, And the sword of thine excellency? And thine enemies shall come cringing to thee; And thou shalt tread upon their high places.

⁴ And Jehovah said unto him, This is the land that I swore unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it: I have caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither.

¹⁰ And also all that generation were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them, which knew not Jehovah, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.

¹⁷ And he said to him, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, shew me a sign that it is thou who talkest with me. ¹⁸ Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee, and bring forth my present, and set it before thee. And he said, I will tarry until thou come again. ¹⁹ And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid of the goats, and an ephah of flour in unleavened cakes: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to him under the terebinth, and presented it. ²⁰ And the Angel of God said to him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so. ²¹ And the Angel of Jehovah put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. And the Angel of Jehovah departed out of his sight.

²¹ And the Angel of Jehovah put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. And the Angel of Jehovah departed out of his sight. ²² And Gideon perceived that he was an angel of Jehovah; and Gideon said, Alas, Lord Jehovah! for because I have seen an angel of Jehovah face to face ... ²³ And Jehovah said to him, Peace be unto thee: fear not; thou shalt not die. ²⁴ And Gideon built there an altar to Jehovah, and called it Jehovah-shalom. To this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites.

³⁶ And Gideon said to God, If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said, ³⁷ behold, I put a fleece of wool on the threshing-floor; if dew shall be on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the ground, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said. ³⁸ And it was so. And when he rose up early on the morrow, he pressed the fleece together, and wrung dew out of the fleece, a bowl-full of water. ³⁹ And Gideon said to God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once! Let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it, I pray thee, be dry upon the fleece only, and upon all the ground let there be dew. ⁴⁰ And God did so that night, and it was dry upon the fleece only, but on all the ground there was dew.

²⁰ And it came to pass, as the flame went up from off the altar towards the heavens, that the Angel of Jehovah ascended in the flame of the altar; and Manoah and his wife looked on, and fell on their faces to the ground.

¹² Jehovah recompense thy work, and let thy reward be full from Jehovah the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to take refuge.

¹¹ And she vowed a vow, and said, O Jehovah of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man child, then I will give him to Jehovah all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.

⁹ (In former time in Israel, when a man went to ask counsel of God, he said, Come and let us go to the seer; for he that is now called a Prophet was in former time called a Seer.)

⁸ When Jacob had come into Egypt, and your fathers cried to Jehovah, then Jehovah sent Moses and Aaron, and they brought your fathers forth out of Egypt, and made them dwell in this place.

⁹ If they say thus to us, Stand still until we come to you, then we will stay in our place, and will not go up to them. ¹⁰ And if they say thus, Come up to us, then we will go up; for Jehovah has given them into our hand; and this shall be the sign to us.

¹² And David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul`s head; and they went away, and no man saw [it], and none knew [it], and none awaked, for they were all asleep; for a deep sleep from Jehovah had fallen upon them.

¹² When thy days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.

³ And David smote Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion by the river Euphrates.

¹¹ And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who came forth of my bowels, seeks my life: how much more now a Benjaminite? let him alone and let him curse; for Jehovah has bidden him.

⁹ There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals burned forth from it.

⁵ Although my house be not so before ?God, Yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, Ordered in every way and sure; For [this is] all my salvation, and every desire, Although he make [it] not to grow.

²¹ And Solomon ruled over all kingdoms from the river to the land of the Philistines, and as far as the border of Egypt: they brought presents, and served Solomon all the days of his life.

²⁶ And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom Jehovah had dispossessed before the children of Israel.)

⁸ And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, What [shall be] the sign that Jehovah will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of Jehovah the third day?

⁹ and eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance to the wilderness from the river Euphrates; for their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.

²⁶ And David built there an altar to Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from the heavens by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.

¹ And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

²³ And David took not their number from twenty years old and under; for Jehovah had said he would increase Israel as the stars of heaven.

²⁰ And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and courageous, and do it; fear not nor be dismayed: for Jehovah Elohim, my God, will be with thee; he will not leave thee, neither forsake thee, until all the work for the service of the house of Jehovah is finished.

²⁸ And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour; and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.

²⁶ And he ruled over all the kings from the river as far as the land of the Philistines, and up to the border of Egypt.

²¹ And Jehovah sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the princes and the captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. And he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels made him fall there with the sword.

²⁸ Behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof. And they brought the king word again.

⁷ Thou art the Same, Jehovah Elohim, who didst choose Abram and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham; ⁸ and foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest the covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, -- to give it to his seed; and thou hast performed thy words, for thou art righteous.

⁸ and foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest the covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, -- to give it to his seed; and thou hast performed thy words, for thou art righteous. ⁹ And thou sawest the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest their cry by the Red Sea; ¹⁰ and didst shew signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants, and upon all the people of his land; for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them, and thou didst make thee a name, as it is this day. ¹¹ And thou didst divide the sea before them, and they went through the midst of the sea on dry [ground]; and their pursuers thou threwest into the depths, as a stone into the mighty waters.

¹³ In thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men: -- ¹⁴ Fear came on me, and trembling, and made all my bones to shake;

²⁶ Thou shalt come to the grave in a ripe age, as a shock of corn is brought in in its season.

¹⁵ In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

¹⁷ And Job died, old and full of days.

³ But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.

³ But know that Jehovah hath set apart the pious [man] for himself: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him. ⁴ Be moved with anger, and sin not; meditate in your own hearts upon your bed, and be still. Selah. ⁵ Offer sacrifices of righteousness, and confide in Jehovah.

¹² For thou, Jehovah, wilt bless the righteous [man]; with favour wilt thou surround him as [with] a shield.

⁵ Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. ⁶ The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

² Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my ?God, my rock, in whom I will trust; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

¹ {[A Psalm] of David.} Jehovah is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

³⁷ Mark the perfect, and behold the upright, for the end of [that] man is peace;

⁵ Gather unto me my godly ones, those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice!

⁴ Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done what is evil in thy sight; that thou mayest be justified when thou speakest, be clear when thou judgest.

¹¹ And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.

⁴³ How he set his signs in Egypt, and his miracles in the field of Zoan; ⁴⁴ And turned their rivers into blood, and their streams, that they could not drink; ⁴⁵ He sent dog-flies among them, which devoured them, and frogs, which destroyed them; ⁴⁶ And he gave their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour unto the locust; ⁴⁷ He killed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with hail-stones; ⁴⁸ And he delivered up their cattle to the hail, and their flocks to thunderbolts. ⁴⁹ He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and distress, -- a mission of angels of woes. ⁵⁰ He made a way for his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence; ⁵¹ And he smote all the firstborn in Egypt, the first-fruits of their vigour in the tents of Ham.

⁹ Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

¹¹ For Jehovah Elohim is a sun and shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

¹⁷ Shew me a token for good, that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed; for thou, Jehovah, hast helped me and comforted me.

⁴ He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou find refuge: his truth is a shield and buckler.

¹¹ Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

¹¹ Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; ¹² When they were a few men in number, of small account, and strangers in it.

²³ And Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. ²⁴ And he made his people exceeding fruitful, and made them mightier than their oppressors. ²⁵ He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

²⁷ They set his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham. ²⁸ He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word. ²⁹ He turned their waters into blood, and caused their fish to die. ³⁰ Their land swarmed with frogs, -- in the chambers of their kings. ³¹ He spoke, and there came dog-flies, [and] gnats in all their borders. ³² He gave them hail for rain, [and] flaming fire in their land; ³³ And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees of their borders. ³⁴ He spoke, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, even without number; ³⁵ And they devoured every herb in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground. ³⁶ And he smote every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigour. ³⁷ And he brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was not one feeble among their tribes.

⁴² For he remembered his holy word, [and] Abraham his servant;

⁴⁴ And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the labour of the peoples:

³¹ And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore.

¹³ With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

¹¹⁴ Thou art my hiding-place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

³ Lo, children are an inheritance from Jehovah, [and] the fruit of the womb a reward.

⁹ Who sent signs and miracles into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants;

¹⁴ For Jehovah will judge his people, and will repent in favour of his servants.

⁵ I cried unto thee, Jehovah; I said, Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.

⁴ He counteth the number of the stars; he giveth names to them all.

¹⁸ The wicked worketh a deceitful work; but he that soweth righteousness hath a sure reward.

¹² Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but the desire [that] cometh to pass is a tree of life.

² A wise servant shall rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part in the inheritance among the brethren.

²¹ He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child, shall in the end have him as a son.

⁵ Every word of +God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

²³ under an odious [woman] when she is married, and a handmaid when she is heir to her mistress.

⁷ I acquired servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of herds and flocks, above all that had been in Jerusalem before me.

³ If a man beget a hundred [sons], and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, but his soul be not filled with good, and also he have no burial, I say an untimely birth is better than he.

⁷ and the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit return unto God who gave it.

¹¹ Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God; ask for it in the deep, or in the height above.

⁵ My heart crieth out for Moab; their fugitives [have fled] unto Zoar, unto Eglath-Sheli-shijah: for by the ascent of Luhith, with weeping they go up by it; for in the way of Horonaim they raise up a cry of destruction.

⁵ And it shall be as when the reaper gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; yea, it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.

¹² And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah shall beat out from the flood of the river unto the torrent of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, [ye] children of Israel.

⁴ Say to them that are of a timid heart, Be strong, fear not; behold your God: vengeance cometh, the recompense of God! He will come himself, and save you.

¹⁰ -- Fear not, for I [am] with thee; be not dismayed, for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

¹⁴ Fear not, thou worm Jacob, ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith Jehovah, and thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

¹ But now thus saith Jehovah, that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called [thee] by thy name; thou art mine.

⁵ Fear not, for I [am] with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

² thus saith Jehovah, that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, who helpeth thee, Fear not, Jacob, my servant, and thou, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

⁸ Fear not, neither be afraid. Have I not caused thee to hear from that time, and have declared it? and ye are my witnesses. Is there a +God beside me? yea, there is no Rock: I know not any.

¹² I, [even] I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou fearest a man that shall die, and the son of man that shall become as grass;

³ Incline your ear, and come unto me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the sure mercies of David.

⁵ even unto them will I give in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

¹ The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from before the evil. ² He entereth into peace: they rest in their beds, [each one] that hath walked in his uprightness.

¹ For Zion`s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem`s sake I will not be still, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a torch that burneth.

¹ At that time, saith Jehovah, they shall bring forth the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves; ² and they shall spread them out to the sun and to the moon and to all the host of the heavens, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and which they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried; they shall be for dung upon the face of the ground.

⁴ which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Hearken unto my voice and do them, according to all that I command you; so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God:

¹ Righteous art thou, Jehovah, when I plead with thee; yet will I speak with thee of [thy] judgments. Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? [wherefore] are all they at ease that deal very treacherously?

³¹ Behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: ³² not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day of my taking them by the hand, to lead them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they broke, although I was a husband unto them, saith Jehovah. ³³ For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, saith Jehovah: I will put my law in their inward parts, and will write it in their heart; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. ³⁴ And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Jehovah; for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith Jehovah: for I will pardon their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more.

⁴⁰ And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not draw back from them, to do them good; and I will put my fear in their heart, that they may not turn aside from me.

²⁰ Thus saith Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant [in respect] of the day, and my covenant [in respect] of the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season, ²¹ [then] shall also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites, the priests, my ministers. ²² As the host of the heavens cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.

²² As the host of the heavens cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me. ²³ And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying, ²⁴ Hast thou not seen what this people have spoken, saying, The two families that Jehovah had chosen, he hath even cast them off? And they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them. ²⁵ Thus saith Jehovah: If my covenant of day and night [stand] not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of the heavens and the earth, ²⁶ [then] will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so as not to take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will turn their captivity, and will have mercy on them.

¹⁸ And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, -- the calf which they cut in twain, and passed between the parts thereof, ¹⁹ -- the princes of Judah and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf;

²⁴ Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

¹ Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], on the fifth of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

⁴ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

²⁴ And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity; and the vision that I had seen went up from me.

³ and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: A great eagle with great wings, long-pinioned, full of feathers, which was of divers colours, came unto Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar.

⁷ And there was another great eagle with great wings and many feathers; and behold, from the beds of her plantation, this vine did bend her roots unto him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might water it.

²³ And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up.

¹ In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing is true, but the appointed time of trial is long; and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision. ² In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks: ³ I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three full weeks were fulfilled. ⁴ And on the four-and-twentieth day of the first month, I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel: ⁵ and I lifted up mine eyes and looked, and behold, a certain man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz; ⁶ and his body was like a chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet as the look of burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. ⁷ And I Daniel alone saw the vision; and the men that were with me saw not the vision, but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves. ⁸ And I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; and my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

⁸ And I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; and my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength. ⁹ And I heard the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, I fell into a deep stupor on my face, and my face to the ground.

⁹ And I heard the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, I fell into a deep stupor on my face, and my face to the ground. ¹⁰ And behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and the palms of my hands. ¹¹ And he said unto me, O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words which I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And as he spoke this word unto me, I stood trembling. ¹² And he said unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come because of thy words. ¹³ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. ¹⁴ And I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people at the end of the days: for the vision is yet for [many] days. ¹⁵ And as he was speaking with me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb. ¹⁶ And behold, one after the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; and I opened my mouth and spoke, and said unto him that stood before me, My lord, by reason of the vision my pains are turned upon me, and I retain no strength.

¹³ But do thou go thy way until the end; and thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.

⁵ And the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. ⁶ And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goeth forth. And he said, This is their resemblance in all the land. ⁷ And behold, there was lifted up a round plate of lead; and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. ⁸ And he said, This is Wickedness: and he cast her into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. ⁹ And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; and they had wings like the wings of a stork; and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heavens. ¹⁰ And I said to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these carry the ephah? ¹¹ And he said unto me, To build it a house in the land of Shinar; and it shall be established, and set there upon its own base.

²⁶ And he says to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then, having arisen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

²⁸ And there met him, when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes, two possessed by demons, coming out of the tombs, exceeding dangerous, so that no one was able to pass by that way.

²⁸ And be not afraid of those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but fear rather him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. ²⁹ Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall to the ground without your Father; ³⁰ but of you even the hairs of the head are all numbered. ³¹ Fear not therefore; *ye* are better than many sparrows.

⁴ and as he sowed, some [grains] fell along the way, and the birds came and devoured them;

³² *I* am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not God of [the] dead, but of [the] living.

³² and *ye*, fill ye up the measure of your fathers. ³³ Serpents, offspring of vipers, how should ye escape the judgment of hell? ³⁴ Therefore, behold, *I* send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes; and [some] of them ye will kill and crucify, and [some] of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will persecute from city to city; ³⁵ so that all righteous blood shed upon the earth should come upon *you*, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.

⁵ And the angel answering said to the women, Fear not *ye*, for I know that ye seek Jesus the crucified one.

¹³ But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zacharias, because thy supplication has been heard, and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.

¹⁸ And Zacharias said to the angel, How shall I know this, for *I* am an old man, and my wife advanced in years?

³⁰ And the angel said to her, Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God;

³⁴ But Mary said to the angel, How shall this be, since I know not a man?

²⁴ and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of [the] Lord: A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.

³² Fear not, little flock, for it has been the good pleasure of your Father to give you the kingdom.

² And he said, Brethren and fathers, hearken. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran, ³ and said to him, Go out of thy land and out of thy kindred, and come into the land which I will shew thee. ⁴ Then going out of the land of the Chaldeans he dwelt in Charran, and thence, after his father died, he removed him into this land in which *ye* now dwell. ⁵ And he did not give him an inheritance in it, not even what his foot could stand on; and promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when he had no child. ⁶ And God spoke thus: His seed shall be a sojourner in a strange land, and they shall enslave them and evil entreat [them] four hundred years; ⁷ and the nation to which they shall be in bondage will *I* judge, said God; and after these things they shall come forth and serve me in this place.

¹⁷ But as the time of promise drew near which God had promised to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,

⁸ And Saul rose up from the earth, and his eyes being opened he saw no one. But leading [him] by the hand they brought him into Damascus. ⁹ And he was three days without seeing, and neither ate nor drank.

¹⁰ And he became hungry and desired to eat. But as they were making ready an ecstasy came upon him: ¹¹ and he beholds the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as a great sheet, [bound] by [the] four corners [and] let down to the earth; ¹² in which were all the quadrupeds and creeping things of the earth, and the fowls of the heaven. ¹³ And there was a voice to him, Rise, Peter, slay and eat. ¹⁴ And Peter said, In no wise, Lord; for I have never eaten anything common or unclean. ¹⁵ And [there was] a voice again the second time to him, What God has cleansed, do not *thou* make common. ¹⁶ And this took place thrice, and the vessel was straightway taken up into heaven. ¹⁷ And as Peter doubted in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold also the men who were sent by Cornelius, having sought out the house of Simon, stood at the gate,

²² And they said, Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man, and fearing God, and borne witness to by the whole nation of the Jews, has been divinely instructed by a holy angel to send for thee to his house, and hear words from thee.

³⁶ For David indeed, having in his own generation ministered to the will of God, fell asleep, and was added to his fathers and saw corruption.

⁹ And a certain youth, by name Eutychus, sitting at the window-opening, overpowered by deep sleep, while Paul discoursed very much at length, having been overpowered by the sleep, fell from the third story down to the bottom, and was taken up dead.

³ for what does the scripture say? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. ⁴ Now to him that works the reward is not reckoned as of grace, but of debt: ⁵ but to him who does not work, but believes on him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness. ⁶ Even as David also declares the blessedness of the man to whom God reckons righteousness without works:

⁹ [Does] this blessedness then [rest] on the circumcision, or also on the uncircumcision? For we say that faith has been reckoned to Abraham as righteousness.

¹¹ And he received [the] sign of circumcision [as] seal of the righteousness of faith which [he had] being in uncircumcision, that he might be [the] father of all them that believe being in uncircumcision, that righteousness might be reckoned to them also;

¹³ For [it was] not by law that the promise was to Abraham, or to his seed, that he should be heir of [the] world, but by righteousness of faith.

¹⁸ who against hope believed in hope to his becoming father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be:

²⁰ and hesitated not at the promise of God through unbelief; but found strength in faith, giving glory to God; ²¹ and being fully persuaded that what he has promised he is able also to do; ²² wherefore also it was reckoned to him as righteousness. ²³ Now it was not written on his account alone that it was reckoned to him, ²⁴ but on ours also, to whom, believing on him who has raised from among [the] dead Jesus our Lord, ²⁵ who has been delivered for our offences and has been raised for our justification, it will be reckoned.

⁷ nor because they are seed of Abraham [are] all children: but, In Isaac shall a seed be called to thee. ⁸ That is, [they that are] the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned as seed.

²² Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or [the] world, or life, or death, or things present, or things coming, all are yours;

¹⁹ how that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their offences; and putting in us the word of that reconciliation.

⁶ Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. ⁷ Know then that they that are on the principle of faith, these are Abraham`s sons; <sup>8</sup> and the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the nations on the principle of faith, announced beforehand the glad tidings to Abraham: In thee all the nations shall be blessed. <sup>9</sup> So that they who are on the principle of faith are blessed with believing Abraham. <sup>10</sup> For as many as are on the principle of works of law are under curse. For it is written, Cursed is every one who does not continue in all things which [are] written in the book of the law to do them; <sup>11</sup> but that by law no one is justified with God [is] evident, because The just shall live on the principle of faith; <sup>12</sup> but the law is not on the principle of faith; but, He that shall have done these things shall live by them. <sup>13</sup> Christ has redeemed us out of the curse of the law, having become a curse for us, (for it is written, Cursed [is] every one hanged upon a tree,) <sup>14</sup> that the blessing of Abraham might come to the nations in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. <sup>15</sup> Brethren, (I speak according to man,) even man`s confirmed covenant no one sets aside, or adds other dispositions to. ¹⁶ But to Abraham were the promises addressed, and to his seed: he does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed; which is Christ. ¹⁷ Now I say this, A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which took place four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

¹⁷ Now I say this, A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which took place four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

²⁸ But *ye*, brethren, after the pattern of Isaac, are children of promise.

¹⁶ forbidding us to speak to the nations that they may be saved, that they may fill up their sins always: but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.

¹⁵ Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line the word of truth.

¹² whom I have sent back to thee: [but do *thou* receive] him, that is, *my* bowels:

¹ God having spoken in many parts and in many ways formerly to the fathers in the prophets,

¹³ For God, having promised to Abraham, since he had no greater to swear by, swore by himself, ¹⁴ saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee; ¹⁵ and thus, having had long patience, he got the promise. ¹⁶ For men indeed swear by a greater, and with them the oath is a term to all dispute, as making matters sure. ¹⁷ Wherein God, willing to shew more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of his purpose, intervened by an oath, ¹⁸ that by two unchangeable things, in which [it was] impossible that God should lie, we might have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before us, ¹⁹ which we have as anchor of the soul, both secure and firm, and entering into that within the veil,

³⁵ Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense. ³⁶ For ye have need of endurance in order that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.

⁸ By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and went out, not knowing where he was going.

⁸ By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and went out, not knowing where he was going. ⁹ By faith he sojourned as a stranger in the land of promise as a foreign country, having dwelt in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with [him] of the same promise; ¹⁰ for he waited for the city which has foundations, of which God is [the] artificer and constructor. ¹¹ By faith also Sarah herself received strength for [the] conception of seed, and [that] beyond a seasonable age; since she counted him faithful who promised. ¹² Wherefore also there have been born of one, and that of one become dead, even as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the countless sand which [is] by the sea shore.

¹² Wherefore also there have been born of one, and that of one become dead, even as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the countless sand which [is] by the sea shore. ¹³ All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar off and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

¹³ All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar off and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth. ¹⁴ For they who say such things shew clearly that they seek [their] country. ¹⁵ And if they had called to mind that from whence they went out, they had had opportunity to have returned; ¹⁶ but now they seek a better, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.

⁵ [Let your] conversation [be] without love of money, satisfied with [your] present circumstances; for *he* has said, I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee. ⁶ So that, taking courage, we may say, The Lord [is] my helper, and I will not be afraid: what will man do unto me?

²⁰ But the God of peace, who brought again from among [the] dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, in [the power of the] blood of [the] eternal covenant,

²³ And the scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness, and he was called Friend of God.

⁸ But let not this one thing be hidden from you, beloved, that one day with [the] Lord [is] as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. ⁹ [The] Lord does not delay his promise, as some account of delay, but is longsuffering towards you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

¹⁷ And when I saw him I fell at his feet as dead; and he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not; *I* am the first and the last,

³ And I heard a loud voice out of the heaven, saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he shall tabernacle with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, their God. ⁴ And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall not exist any more, nor grief, nor cry, nor distress shall exist any more, for the former things have passed away.
