²⁵ -- These are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter; and she bore these to Jacob: all the souls were seven. ²⁶ All the souls that came with Jacob to Egypt, that had come out of his loins, besides Jacob`s sons` wives: all the souls were sixty-six. ²⁷ And the sons of Joseph who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob that came to Egypt were seventy.

²⁸ And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.

³ And Jacob said to Joseph, The Almighty ?God appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,

³ And Jacob said to Joseph, The Almighty ?God appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, ⁴ and he said to me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a company of peoples; and will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting possession.

⁴ and he said to me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a company of peoples; and will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting possession.

⁷ And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was yet a certain distance to come to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath, that is, Bethlehem.

¹ And Jacob called his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, and I will tell you what will befall you at the end of days. ² Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob, And listen to Israel your father. ³ Reuben, thou art my firstborn, My might, and the firstfruits of my vigour: Excellency of dignity, and excellency of strength. ⁴ Impetuous as the waters, thou shalt have no pre-eminence; Because thou wentest up to thy father`s couch: Then defiledst thou [it]: he went up to my bed. <sup>5</sup> Simeon and Levi are brethren: Instruments of violence their swords. <sup>6</sup> My soul, come not into their council; Mine honour, be not united with their assembly; For in their anger they slew men, And in their wantonness houghed oxen. <sup>7</sup> Cursed be their anger, for it [was] violent; And their rage, for it [was] cruel! I will divide them in Jacob, And scatter them in Israel. <sup>8</sup> Judah -- [as to] thee, thy brethren will praise thee; Thy hand will be upon the neck of thine enemies; Thy father`s children will bow down to thee. ⁹ Judah is a young lion; From the prey, my son, thou art gone up. He stoopeth, he layeth himself down as a lion, And as a lioness: who will rouse him up? ¹⁰ The scepter will not depart from Judah, Nor the lawgiver from between his feet, Until Shiloh come, And to him will be the obedience of peoples. ¹¹ He bindeth his foal to the vine, And his ass`s colt to the choice vine; He washeth his dress in wine, And his garment in the blood of grapes. <sup>12</sup> The eyes are red with wine, And the teeth [are] white with milk. <sup>13</sup> Zebulun will dwell at the shore of the seas; Yea, he will be at the shore of the ships, And his side [toucheth] upon Sidon. <sup>14</sup> Issachar is a bony ass, Crouching down between two hurdles. <sup>15</sup> And he saw the rest that it was good, And the land that it was pleasant; And he bowed his shoulder to bear, And was a tributary servant. <sup>16</sup> Dan will judge his people, As another of the tribes of Israel. <sup>17</sup> Dan will be a serpent on the way, A horned snake on the path, Which biteth the horse`s heels, So that the rider falleth backwards. ¹⁸ I wait for thy salvation, O Jehovah. ¹⁹ Gad -- troops will rush upon him; But he will rush upon the heel. ²⁰ Out of Asher, his bread shall be fat, And he will give royal dainties. ²¹ Naphtali is a hind let loose; He giveth goodly words. ²² Joseph is a fruitful bough; A fruitful bough by a well; [His] branches shoot over the wall. ²³ The archers have provoked him, And shot at, and hated him; ²⁴ But his bow abideth firm, And the arms of his hands are supple By the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob. From thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel: ²⁵ From the ?God of thy father, and he will help thee; And from the Almighty, and he will bless thee -- With blessings of heaven from above, With blessings of the deep that lieth under, With blessings of the breast and of the womb. ²⁶ The blessings of thy father surpass the blessings of my ancestors, Unto the bounds of the everlasting hills: They shall be on the head of Joseph, And on the crown of the head of him that was separated from his brethren. ²⁷ Benjamin -- [as] a wolf will he tear to pieces; In the morning he will devour the prey, And in the evening he will divide the booty. ²⁸ All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father spoke to them; and he blessed them: every one according to his blessing he blessed them.

³¹ There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebecca his wife; and there I buried Leah.

³³ And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered his feet into the bed, and expired, and was gathered to his peoples.

²⁶ And Joseph died, a hundred and ten years old; and they embalmed him; and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

¹ And these are the names of the sons of Israel who had come into Egypt; with Jacob had they come, each with his household: ² Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;

² Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah; ³ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;

³ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin; ⁴ Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher.

⁴ Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher. ⁵ And all the souls that had come out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls; and Joseph was in Egypt.

⁷ And the children of Israel were fruitful, and swarmed and multiplied, and became exceeding strong; and the land was full of them.

¹⁵ And Pharaoh heard of this matter, and sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from before Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian. And he sat by the well.

⁸ And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good and spacious land, unto a land flowing with milk and honey, unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

³ And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as the Almighty ?God; but by my name Jehovah I was not made known to them.

¹⁴ These are the heads of their fathers` houses: the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Enoch and Phallu, Hezron and Carmi: these are the families of Reuben. ¹⁵ -- And the sons of Simeon: Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Saul the son of a Canaanitish woman: these are the families of Simeon. ¹⁶ And these are the names of the sons of Levi, according to their generations: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari. And the years of the life of Levi were a hundred and thirty-seven years.

⁷ And they shall take of the blood, and put [it] on the two door-posts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.

¹⁵ Then the princes of Edom were amazed; The mighty men of Moab, trembling hath seized them; All the inhabitants of Canaan melted away. ¹⁶ Fear and dread fall upon them; By the greatness of thine arm they are still as a stone; Till thy people pass over, Jehovah, Till the people pass over that thou hast purchased.

¹⁵ And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi.

¹⁰ And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to the people, and hallow them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their clothes;

¹⁴ And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and hallowed the people; and they washed their clothes.

³ Thou shalt have no other gods before me. ⁴ Thou shalt not make thyself any graven image, or any form of what is in the heavens above, or what is in the earth beneath, or what is in the waters under the earth:

¹³ And ye shall be on your guard as to everything that I have said unto you; and shall make no mention of the name of other gods -- it shall not be heard in thy mouth.

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.

² And Aaron said to them, Break off the golden rings that are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring [them] to me. ³ Then all the people broke off the golden rings that were in their ears, and brought [them] to Aaron. ⁴ And he took [them] out of their hand, and fashioned it with a chisel and made of it a molten calf: and they said, This is thy god, Israel, who has brought thee up out of the land of Egypt!

²⁰ And he took the calf that they had made, and burned [it] with fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed [it] on the water, and made the children of Israel drink [it].

²⁴ For I will dispossess the nations before thee, and enlarge thy border, and no man shall desire thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the face of Jehovah thy God thrice in the year.

⁵ And whoever toucheth his bed shall wash his garments, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even.

¹⁶ And if he wash them not nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.

⁸ The nakedness of thy father`s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father`s nakedness.

¹ And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai in the tent of meeting, on the first of the second month, in the second year after their departure from the land of Egypt, saying, ² Take the sum of the whole assembly of the children of Israel, after their families, according to their fathers` houses, by the number of the names, every male, according to their polls; <sup>3</sup> from twenty years and upward, all that go forth to military service in Israel: ye shall number them according to their hosts, thou and Aaron. <sup>4</sup> And with you there shall be a man for every tribe, a man who is the head of his father`s house. ⁵ And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: for Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur;

²⁴ And ye shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean; and afterwards ye may come into the camp.

¹⁴ For the tribe of the children of the Reubenites according to their fathers` houses, and the tribe of the children of the Gadites according to their fathers` houses, have received, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance; ¹⁵ the two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side the Jordan of Jericho eastward, toward the sun-rising. ¹⁶ And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, ¹⁷ These are the names of the men who shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. ¹⁸ And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land. ¹⁹ And these are the names of the men: for the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh; ²⁰ and for the tribe of the children of Simeon, Samuel the son of Ammihud; ²¹ for the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon; ²² and for the tribe of the children of Dan, a prince, Bukki the son of Jogli; ²³ for the children of Joseph: for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, a prince, Hanniel the son of Ephod, ²⁴ and for the tribe of the children of Ephraim, a prince, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan; ²⁵ and for the tribe of the children of Zebulun, a prince, Elizaphan the son of Pharnach; ²⁶ and for the tribe of the children of Issachar, a prince, Phaltiel the son of Azzan; ²⁷ and for the tribe of the children of Asher, a prince, Ahihud the son of Shelomi; ²⁸ and for the tribe of the children of Naphtali, a prince, Phedahel the son of Ammihud.

⁷ Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

¹⁴ Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples that are round about you;

⁵ But thus shall ye deal with them: ye shall break down their altars, and shatter their statues, and hew down their Asherahs, and burn their graven images with fire.

²⁵ The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire; thou shalt not covet the silver and gold [that is] on them and take it unto thee, lest thou be ensnared therein; for it is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.

²⁵ No man shall be able to stand before you: the fear of you and the dread of you will Jehovah your God lay upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you.

²⁸ and a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of Jehovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods which ye have not known.

¹⁶ They moved him to jealousy with strange gods, With abominations did they provoke him to anger.

³⁶ For Jehovah will judge his people, And shall repent in favour of his servants; When he seeth that power is gone, And there is none shut up or left.

¹ And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. ² And he said, Jehovah came from Sinai, And rose up from Seir unto them; He shone forth from mount Paran, And he came from the myriads of the sanctuary; From his right hand [went forth] a law of fire for them. ³ Yea, he loveth the peoples, All his saints are in thy hand, And they sit down at thy feet; Each receiveth of thy words. ⁴ Moses commanded us a law, The inheritance of the congregation of Jacob. ⁵ And he was king in Jeshurun, When the heads of the people And the tribes of Israel were gathered together. ⁶ Let Reuben live, and not die; And let his men be few. ⁷ And this of Judah; and he said, Hear, Jehovah, the voice of Judah, And bring him unto his people; May his hands strive for them; And be thou a help to him against his oppressors. ⁸ And of Levi he said, Thy Thummim and thy Urim are for thy godly one, Whom thou didst prove at Massah, With whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah; ⁹ Who said to his father and to his mother, I see him not, And he acknowledged not his brethren, And knew not his own children; For they have observed thy word, And kept thy covenant. ¹⁰ They shall teach Jacob thine ordinances, And Israel thy law: They shall put incense before thy nostrils, And whole burnt-offering upon thine altar. ¹¹ Bless, Jehovah, his substance! And let the work of his hands please thee; Crush the loins of his adversaries, And of them that hate him, that they may never rise again! ¹² Of Benjamin he said, The beloved of Jehovah, -- he shall dwell in safety by him; He will cover him all the day long, And dwell between his shoulders. ¹³ And of Joseph he said, Blessed of Jehovah be his land! By the precious things of the heavens, By the dew, and by the deep that lieth beneath, ¹⁴ And by the precious fruits of the sun, And by the precious things put forth by the months, ¹⁵ And by the best things of the ancient mountains, And by the precious things of the everlasting hills, ¹⁶ And by the precious things of the earth and the fulness thereof. And let the good will of him that dwelt in the bush Come upon the head of Joseph, Upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren. ¹⁷ His majesty is as the firstling of his ox; And his horns are as the horns of a buffalo. With them shall he push the peoples Together to the ends of the earth. These are the myriads of Ephraim, And these are the thousands of Manasseh. ¹⁸ And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; And thou, Issachar, in thy tents! ¹⁹ They shall invite [the] peoples to the mountain; There they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness; For they will suck the abundance of the seas, And the hidden treasures of the sand. ²⁰ And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad! As a lion doth he dwell, and teareth the arm, even the top of the head. ²¹ And he provided the first part for himself, For there was reserved the portion of the lawgiver; And he came with the heads of the people; The justice of Jehovah and his judgments Hath he executed with Israel. ²² And of Dan he said, Dan is a young lion; He shall spring forth from Bashan. ²³ And of Naphtali he said, Naphtali, satisfied with favour, And full of the blessing of Jehovah, Possess thou the west and the south. ²⁴ And of Asher he said, Asher shall be blessed with sons; Let him be acceptable to his brethren, And let him dip his foot in oil. ²⁵ Iron and brass shall be thy bolts; And thy rest as thy days. 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.

²² And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them. ²³ And the house of Joseph sent to search out Bethel; now the name of the city before was Luz. ²⁴ And the guards saw a man come forth out of the city, and said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, how [we] may enter into the city, and we will shew thee kindness. ²⁵ And he shewed them how to enter into the city. And they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family. ²⁶ And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.

¹ And the Angel of Jehovah came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you; and as for you,

⁵ And they called the name of that place Bochim; and they sacrificed there to Jehovah.

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.

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.

²⁴ And Gideon said to them, I would desire a request of you: give me every man the earrings of his booty; for they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites. ²⁵ And they said, We will willingly give [them]. And they spread a garment, and cast therein every man the earrings of his booty. ²⁶ And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was a thousand seven hundred [shekels] of gold; besides the moons, and eardrops, and the purple garments that were on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were about their camels` necks. ²⁷ And Gideon made an ephod of them, and put it in his city, in Ophrah. And all Israel went thither a whoring after it; and it became a snare to Gideon, and to his house.

⁶ And all the citizens of Shechem gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and went and made Abimelech king, by the memorial-oak that is in Shechem.

¹⁶ And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served Jehovah; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

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.

² And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem-Judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.

¹⁵ And she said, Behold, thy sister-in-law is gone back to her people and to her gods: return after thy sister-in-law.

¹¹ And all the people that were in the gate and the elders said, [We are] witnesses. Jehovah make the woman that cometh into thy house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel; and acquire power in Ephratah, and make thyself a name in Bethlehem;

¹ And there was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite. ² And he had two wives: the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah; and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. ³ And this man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to Jehovah of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of Jehovah, were there. ⁴ And it came to pass on the day that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and her daughters portions; ⁵ but to Hannah he used to give a double portion, for he loved Hannah; but Jehovah had shut up her womb. ⁶ And her adversary provoked her much also, to make her fret, because Jehovah had shut up her womb. ⁷ And [as] he did so year by year, as often as she went up to the house of Jehovah, she provoked her thus; and she wept and did not eat. ⁸ And Elkanah her husband said to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? Am not I better to thee than ten sons? ⁹ And Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk; (now Eli the priest sat upon the seat by the door-post of the temple of Jehovah;) ¹⁰ and she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Jehovah, and wept much. 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. ¹² And it came to pass as she continued praying before Jehovah, that Eli marked her mouth. ¹³ Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard; and Eli thought she was drunken. ¹⁴ And Eli said to her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee. ¹⁵ And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before Jehovah. ¹⁶ Take not thy handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my grief and provocation have I spoken hitherto. ¹⁷ And Eli answered and said, Go in peace; and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition which thou hast asked of him. ¹⁸ And she said, Let thy bondwoman find grace in thy sight. And the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more [as before]. ¹⁹ And they rose up early in the morning and worshipped before Jehovah, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and Jehovah remembered her. ²⁰ And it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bore a son, and called his name Samuel, [saying,] Because I have asked him of Jehovah. ²¹ And Elkanah her husband, and all his house, went up to sacrifice to Jehovah the yearly sacrifice and his vow. ²² But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, [I will wait] until the child is weaned; then will I bring him, that he may appear before Jehovah, and there abide for ever. ²³ And Elkanah her husband said to her, Do what is good in thy sight: abide until thou hast weaned him; only, may Jehovah fulfil his word. And the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him. ²⁴ And she took him up with her when she had weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a flask of wine, and brought him to the house of Jehovah to Shiloh; and the boy was young. ²⁵ And they slaughtered the bullock, and brought the boy to Eli. ²⁶ And she said, Oh my lord, [as] thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here to pray to Jehovah. ²⁷ For this boy I prayed; and Jehovah has granted me my petition which I asked of him. ²⁸ And also I have lent him to Jehovah: all the days that he lives, he is lent to Jehovah. And he worshipped Jehovah there.

¹⁹ And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas` wife, was with child, near to be delivered; and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her. ²⁰ And as she was dying, the women that stood by her said, Fear not; for thou hast borne a son. But she did not answer, neither did she take it to heart. ²¹ And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel; because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

³ And Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, If ye return to Jehovah with all your heart, put away the strange gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and apply your hearts unto Jehovah, and serve him only; and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.

¹² And Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, and said, Hitherto Jehovah has helped us.

² When thou goest from me to-day, thou shalt meet two men by Rachel`s sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to thee, The asses are found which thou wentest to seek, and behold, thy father has dismissed the matter of the asses, and is anxious about you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

⁷ And he took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, and sent throughout the territory of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, Whoever comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen! And the fear of Jehovah fell on the people, and they came out as one man.

¹⁵ And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the ravagers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked; for it was a trembling [from] God.

¹³ And they took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

¹ And it came to pass after this that David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And Jehovah said to him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.

³ And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household; and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.

¹¹ And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.

¹ Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

³ And all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah; and they anointed David king over Israel.

⁵ In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

²³ And who is like thy people, like Israel, the one nation in the earth that God went to redeem to be a people to himself, and to make himself a name, and to do for them great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thyself from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?

²¹ And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to thy father`s concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art become odious with thy father; and the hands of all that are with thee shall be strong. <sup>22</sup> So they spread a tent for Absalom upon the roof; and Absalom went in to his father`s concubines in the sight of all Israel.

¹⁷ And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and raised a very great heap of stones upon him. And all Israel fled every one to his tent. ¹⁸ Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a monument, which is in the king`s dale; for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance; and he called the monument after his own name; and it is called unto this day, Absalom`s memorial.

³ And David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women, concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in a house of confinement and maintained them, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up unto the day of their death, living in widowhood.

³¹ And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of Jehovah came saying, Israel shall be thy name;

¹⁰ And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.

¹² Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them and be clean? And he turned and went away in a rage. ¹³ And his servants drew near, and spoke to him and said, My father, [if] the prophet had bidden thee [do some] great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he says to thee, Wash and be clean?

¹⁹ And he said to him, Go in peace. And he departed from him a little way.

²⁹ And every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places that the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they dwelt.

³⁴ To this day they do after their former customs: they fear not Jehovah, neither do they after their statutes or after their ordinances, nor after the law and commandment that Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob, whom he named Israel.

¹ These are the sons of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah, Issachar and Zebulun, ² Dan, Joseph and Benjamin, Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

¹⁹ And Azubah died, and Caleb took him Ephrath, and she bore him Hur.

⁹ And Jabez was more honoured than his brethren; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bore him with pain.

¹ And the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn; but, inasmuch as he defiled his father`s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; but the genealogy is not registered according to the birthright,

²³ And this is the number of the men equipped for military service, who came to David to Hebron, to transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Jehovah. ²⁴ The children of Judah that bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, equipped for military service. ²⁵ Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valour for war, seven thousand one hundred. ²⁶ Of the children of Levi four thousand six hundred. ²⁷ And Jehoiada the prince of Aaron, and with him were three thousand seven hundred; ²⁸ and Zadok, a valiant young man, and his father`s house two and twenty chief men. <sup>29</sup> And of the children of Benjamin, the brethren of Saul, three thousand; but hitherto the greater part of them had adhered to the house of Saul. <sup>30</sup> And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valour, men of name in their fathers` houses. ³¹ And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were expressed by name, to come and make David king. ³² And of the children of Issachar, who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their bidding. ³³ Of Zebulun, such as went forth in the host, armed for war with all weapons of war, fifty thousand, keeping rank without double heart. ³⁴ And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them thirty-seven thousand with shield and spear. ³⁵ And of the Danites armed for war twenty-eight thousand six hundred. ³⁶ And of Asher such as went forth in the host, to set themselves in battle array, forty thousand. ³⁷ And from the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of weapons of war for battle, a hundred and twenty thousand. ³⁸ All of them men of war, keeping rank in battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king. ³⁹ And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brethren had prepared for them; ⁴⁰ and those too that were near them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought food on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen; provisions of meal, fig-cakes and raisin-cakes, and wine and oil, and oxen and sheep, abundantly; for there was joy in Israel.

²⁶ For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

¹⁶ And over the tribes of Israel were: for the Reubenites Eliezer the son of Zichri was the prince; for the Simeonites, Shephatiah the son of Maachah; ¹⁷ for the Levites, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel; for Aaron, Zadok; ¹⁸ for Judah, Elihu of the brethren of David; for Issachar, Omri the son of Michael; ¹⁹ for Zebulun, Jishmaiah the son of Obadiah; for Naphtali, Jerimoth the son of Azriel; ²⁰ for the children of Ephraim, Hosea the son of Azaziah; for the half tribe of Manasseh, Joel the son of Pedaiah; ²¹ for the half [tribe] of Manasseh in Gilead, Jiddo the son of Zechariah; for Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner; ²² for Dan, Azareel the son of Jeroham. These were the princes of the tribes of Israel.

¹⁴ And they smote all the cities round about Gerar, for the terror of Jehovah came upon them; and they spoiled all the cities, for there was very much spoil in them.

¹⁰ And the terror of Jehovah was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat.

¹ On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people; and there was found written in it that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever; ² because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and with water, and had hired Balaam against them, to curse them; but our God turned the curse into blessing. ³ And it came to pass, when they heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude. ⁴ And before this, Eliashib the priest, who had the oversight of the chambers of the house of our God, a kinsman of Tobijah, ⁵ had prepared for him a great chamber, where formerly they laid the oblations, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine and the oil, which was commanded for the Levites and the singers and the doorkeepers, and the heave-offerings of the priests. ⁶ And during all that [time] I was not at Jerusalem; for in the two-and-thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I came to the king; and after some time I obtained leave of the king. ⁷ And I came to Jerusalem, and observed the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobijah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. ⁸ And it grieved me much, and I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobijah out of the chamber. ⁹ And I commanded, and they purified the chambers; and thither brought I again the vessels of the house of God, the oblation and the frankincense. ¹⁰ And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given, and that the Levites and the singers that did the work had fled every one to his field. ¹¹ Then I contended with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I gathered them together and set them in their place. ¹² And all Judah brought the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil into the storehouses. ¹³ And I made storekeepers over the storehouses: Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah; and subordinate to them, Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for they were esteemed faithful, and their office was to distribute to their brethren. ¹⁴ Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds which I have done for the house of my God, and for the charges thereof! ¹⁵ In those days I saw in Judah some treading winepresses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading them on asses; as also wine, grapes and figs, and all manner of burdens; and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day; and I protested in the day on which they sold the victuals. ¹⁶ Men of Tyre also dwelt therein, who brought fish and all manner of ware, and sold it on the sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem. ¹⁷ And I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, What evil thing is this which ye do, profaning the sabbath day? ¹⁸ Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us and upon this city? And ye will bring more wrath against Israel by profaning the sabbath. ¹⁹ And it came to pass, that when it began to be dark in the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut; and I commanded that they should not be opened till after the sabbath. And I set [some] of my servants at the gates, so that no burden should be brought in on the sabbath day. ²⁰ And the dealers and sellers of all kind of ware passed the night without Jerusalem once or twice. ²¹ And I testified against them, and said to them, Why do ye pass the night before the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came not on the sabbath. ²² And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to hallow the sabbath day. Remember this also for me, my God, and spare me according to thy great loving-kindness! ²³ In those days also I saw Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, [and] of Moab. ²⁴ And their children spoke half in the language of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews` language, but according to the language of each people. ²⁵ And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them and plucked off their hair, and adjured them by God [saying], Ye shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. ²⁶ Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among the many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel; but even him did foreign wives cause to sin. ²⁷ And should we hearken to you to do all this great evil, to act unfaithfully to our God by marrying foreign wives? ²⁸ And [one] of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite; and I chased him from me. ²⁹ Remember them, my God, for they are polluters of the priesthood, and of the covenant of the priesthood and of the Levites! ³⁰ And I purified them from all foreigners, and appointed the charges of the priests and the Levites, every one in his service; ³¹ and for the wood-offering, at times appointed, and for the first-fruits. Remember me, O my God, for good!

⁵ And it was so, when the days of the feasting were gone about, that Job sent and hallowed them; and he rose up early in the morning, and offered up burnt-offerings [according to] the number of them all; for Job said, It may be that my children have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

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

⁵ There were they in great fear; for God is in the generation of the righteous.

¹⁰ For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol, neither wilt thou allow thy Holy One to see corruption.

¹ {To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. On Alamoth. A song.} God is our refuge and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.

⁴ He hath chosen our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

¹⁵ And call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

² Wash me fully from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

⁷ Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

¹³ I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee, ¹⁴ Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

¹⁷ Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou hast made strong for thyself.

¹⁵ He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him.

² I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. When wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart. ³ I will set no thing of Belial before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. ⁴ A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know evil. ⁵ Whoso secretly slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy; him that hath a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer. ⁶ Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me. ⁷ He that practiseth deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that speaketh falsehoods shall not subsist in my sight.

¹ {[A Psalm] of David.} Bless Jehovah, O my soul; and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name! ² Bless Jehovah, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: ³ Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases; ⁴ Who redeemeth thy life from the pit, who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies; ⁵ Who satisfieth thine old age with good [things]; thy youth is renewed like the eagle`s.

⁶ Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,

⁸ Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

¹ I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications; ² For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during [all] my days.

¹⁶ Yea, Jehovah! for I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds. ¹⁷ I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of Jehovah. ¹⁸ I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people,

¹⁹ Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them; Jah will I praise. ²⁰ This is the gate of Jehovah: the righteous shall enter therein. ²¹ I will give thee thanks, for thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation. ²² [The] stone which the builders rejected hath become the head of the corner:

⁶ Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah, we found it in the fields of the wood.

⁶ in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he will make plain thy paths.

¹ Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and draw near to hear, rather than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they know not that they do evil.

⁴ When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.

⁴ When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed. ⁵ Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.

⁵ Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. ⁶ Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an inadvertence. Wherefore should God be wroth at thy voice, and destroy the work of thy hands?

⁵ they are also afraid of what is high, and terrors are in the way, and the almond is despised, and the grasshopper is a burden, and the caper-berry is without effect; (for man goeth to his age-long home, and the mourners go about the streets;) ⁶ -- before the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be shattered at the fountain, or the wheel be broken at the cistern; ⁷ and the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit return unto God who gave it.

¹⁶ Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; -- cease to do evil,

²⁰ In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made [each] for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

¹⁹ For the people shall dwell in Zion, at Jerusalem. Thou shalt weep no more; he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; as he heareth it, he will answer thee.

²² And ye shall defile the silver covering of your graven images, and the gold overlaying of your molten images; thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth: Out! shalt thou say unto it.

² When thou passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

¹¹ -- Depart, depart, go out from thence, touch not what is unclean; go out of the midst of her, be ye clean, that bear the vessels of Jehovah.

⁷ Wherefore should I pardon thee? Thy children have forsaken me, and swear by them that are not God. I have satiated them, and they have committed adultery, and they troop to the harlots` house.

²⁷ Thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy fornication, on the hills, in the fields, -- thine abominations, have I seen. Woe unto thee, Jerusalem! Wilt thou not be made clean? after how long a time yet?

²⁰ Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no-gods?

³ Jehovah hath appeared from afar unto me, [saying,] Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love; therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn thee.

¹² They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city; when they pour out their soul into their mothers` bosom.

³¹ Cast away from you all your transgressions wherewith ye have transgressed, and make you a new heart and a new spirit: why then will ye die, house of Israel?

⁷ and I said unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I [am] Jehovah your God.

²⁵ And I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your uncleannesses and from all your idols will I cleanse you.

¹ And these are the names of the tribes: From the north end along the way of Hethlon, as one entereth into Hamath, Hazar-enan, the border of Damascus northward unto near Hamath -- the east and west side [belonging] to him -- shall Dan have one [portion]. ² And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side, Asher one. ³ And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west side, Naphtali one. ⁴ And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west side, Manasseh one. ⁵ And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west side, Ephraim one. ⁶ And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the west side, Reuben one. ⁷ And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west side, Judah one. ⁸ And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the heave-offering that ye shall offer, five and twenty thousand [cubits] in breadth, and in length as one of the parts from the east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it. ⁹ The heave-offering that ye shall offer unto Jehovah shall be five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth. ¹⁰ And for them, for the priests, shall be the holy heave-offering, toward the north five and twenty thousand, and toward the west the breadth ten thousand, and toward the east the breadth ten thousand, and toward the south the length five and twenty thousand: and the sanctuary of Jehovah shall be in the midst of it. ¹¹ [It shall be] for the priests that are hallowed of the sons of Zadok, who kept my charge and went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray. ¹² And this offering heaved from the heave-offering of the land shall be unto them a thing most holy, by the border of the Levites. ¹³ And answering to the border of the priests, the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth: the whole length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand. ¹⁴ And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the first-fruits of the land: for it is holy unto Jehovah. ¹⁵ And the five thousand that are left in the breadth over against the five and twenty thousand, shall be a common [place] for the city, for dwellings and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst of it. ¹⁶ And these shall be the measures thereof: the north side four thousand and five hundred [cubits], and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred. ¹⁷ And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty [cubits], and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and toward the east two hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty. ¹⁸ And the residue in length, alongside the holy heave-offering, shall be ten thousand eastward and ten thousand westward: it shall be alongside the holy heave-offering; and the increase thereof shall be for the support of them that serve the city. ¹⁹ And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel. ²⁰ The whole heave-offering shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand; ye shall offer the holy heave-offering foursquare with the possession of the city. ²¹ And the rest shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy heave-offering and of the possession of the city, in front of the five and twenty thousand of the heave-offering toward the east border, and westward in front of the five and twenty thousand toward the west border, answering to the [other] portions: it shall be for the prince; and the holy heave-offering and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst of it. ²² And from the possession of the Levites and from the possession of the city, being in the midst of that which shall be the prince`s, between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for the prince. ²³ And as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin one [portion]. ²⁴ And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon one. ²⁵ And by the border of Simeon, from the east side unto the west side, Issachar one. ²⁶ And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west side, Zebulun one. ²⁷ And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west side, Gad one. ²⁸ And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be from Tamar [to] the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, by the torrent, unto the great sea. ²⁹ This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions, saith the Lord Jehovah. ³⁰ And these are the goings out of the city. On the north side, four thousand and five hundred [cubits] by measure. ³¹ And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward: the gate of Reuben, one; the gate of Judah, one; the gate of Levi, one. ³² And at the east side four thousand and five hundred, and three gates: the gate of Joseph, one; the gate of Benjamin, one; the gate of Dan, one. ³³ And at the south side four thousand and five hundred [cubits] by measure, and three gates: the gate of Simeon, one; the gate of Issachar, one; the gate of Zebulun, one. ³⁴ At the west side four thousand and five hundred, [and] their three gates: the gate of Gad, one; the gate of Asher, one; the gate of Naphtali, one. ³⁵ Round about it was eighteen thousand [cubits]; and the name of the city from that day, Jehovah is there.

³⁵ Round about it was eighteen thousand [cubits]; and the name of the city from that day, Jehovah is there.

⁴ They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

¹³ And I will visit upon her the days of the Baals, wherein she burned incense to them, and decked herself with her rings and jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, saith Jehovah.

⁴ Yea, he wrestled with the Angel, and prevailed; he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spoke with us,

⁸ And thou, O tower of the flock, hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, yea, the first dominion shall come, -- the kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.

² (And thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall he come forth unto me [who is] to be Ruler in Israel: whose goings forth are from of old, from the days of eternity.)

² Hear, ye mountains, Jehovah`s controversy, and ye, unchanging foundations of the earth; for Jehovah hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel.

¹⁵ Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth glad tidings, that publisheth peace! Celebrate thy feasts, Judah, perform thy vows: for the wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.

¹ Now Jesus having been born in Bethlehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, behold magi from the east arrived at Jerusalem, saying,

⁶ And *thou* Bethlehem, land of Juda, art in no wise the least among the governors of Juda; for out of thee shall go forth a leader who shall shepherd my people Israel.

¹⁶ Then Herod, seeing that he had been mocked by the magi, was greatly enraged; and sent and slew all the boys which [were] in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years and under, according to the time which he had accurately inquired from the magi.

¹⁶ Then Herod, seeing that he had been mocked by the magi, was greatly enraged; and sent and slew all the boys which [were] in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years and under, according to the time which he had accurately inquired from the magi. ¹⁷ Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremias the prophet, saying, ¹⁸ A voice has been heard in Rama, weeping, and great lamentation: Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

¹⁸ A voice has been heard in Rama, weeping, and great lamentation: Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

⁸ And there were shepherds in that country abiding without, and keeping watch by night over their flock.

²⁰ But God said to him, Fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee; and whose shall be what thou hast prepared?

⁴⁶ And Jesus, having cried with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit. And having said this, he expired.

³¹ And their eyes were opened, and they recognised him. And he disappeared from them.

¹⁰ Jesus says to him, He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all. ¹¹ For he knew him that delivered him up: on account of this he said, Ye are not all clean.

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,

⁸ And he gave to him [the] covenant of circumcision; and thus he begat Isaac and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

⁵⁹ And they stoned Stephen, praying, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

²⁶ and ye see and hear that this Paul has persuaded and turned away a great crowd, not only of Ephesus, but almost of all Asia, saying that they are no gods which are made with hands.

¹ It is universally reported [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as [is] not even among the nations, so that one should have his father`s wife.

⁷ Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

¹⁵ and what consent of Christ with Beliar, or what part for a believer along with an unbeliever? ¹⁶ and what agreement of God`s temple with idols? for *ye* are [the] living God`s temple; according as God has said, I will dwell among them, and walk among [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be to me a people. ¹⁷ Wherefore come out from the midst of them, and be separated, saith [the] Lord, and touch not [what is] unclean, and *I* will receive you; ¹⁸ and I will be to you for a Father, and ye shall be to me for sons and daughters, saith [the] Lord Almighty.

¹ Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us purify ourselves from every pollution of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in God`s fear.

⁸ But then indeed, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods;

¹⁵ But she shall be preserved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and love and holiness with discretion.

²² let us approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water.

⁸ Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse [your] hands, sinners, and purify [your] hearts, ye double-minded.

¹ Laying aside therefore all malice and all guile and hypocrisies and envyings and all evil speakings, ² as newborn babes desire earnestly the pure mental milk of the word, that by it ye may grow up to salvation,

²³ but others save with fear, snatching [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

⁴ And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred [and] forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of [the] sons of Israel: ⁵ out of [the] tribe of Juda, twelve thousand sealed; out of [the] tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Gad, twelve thousand; ⁶ out of [the] tribe of Aser, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Nepthalim, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand; ⁷ out of [the] tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Levi, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand; ⁸ out of [the] tribe of Zabulun, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand sealed.

¹⁴ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
