¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of witness, the first day of the second month, and in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, ² "Take ye the sum of all the multitude of the children of Israel, in their kindreds and households of their fathers and number them by name all that are males, poll by poll, ³ from twenty years and above: even all that are able to go forth into war in Israel, thou and Aaron shall number them in their armies. ⁴ And with you shall be, of every tribe, a head man in the house of his father. ⁵ "And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: in Reuben, Elizur the son of Shedeur;

¹⁹ as the LORD commanded Moses, even so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai. ²⁰ And the children of Reuben, Israel's eldest son, in their generations, kindreds and houses of their fathers — when they were numbered every man by name, all that were males from twenty years and above, as many as were able to go forth in war - ²¹ were numbered in the tribe of Reuben, forty six thousand and five hundred. ²² Among the children of Simeon, their generation in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when every man's name was told, of all the males from twenty years and above, whatsoever was meet for the war - ²³ were numbered in the tribe of Simeon forty nine thousand and three hundred. ²⁴ Among the children of Gad, their generation in their kindreds and households of their fathers — when they were told by name, from twenty years and above, all that were mete for the war - ²⁵ were numbered in the tribe of Gad forty five thousand, six hundred and fifty. ²⁶ Among the children of Judah, their generation in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — by the number of names, from twenty years and above, all that were able to war - ²⁷ were told in the tribe of Judah seventy four thousand and six hundred. ²⁸ Among the children of Issachar, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when their names were counted, from twenty years and above, whatsoever was apt for war — ²⁹ were numbered in the tribe of Issachar fifty four thousand and four hundred. ³⁰ Among the children of Zebulun, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers —after the number of names, from twenty years and above, whosoever was mete for the war - ³¹ were counted in the tribe of Zebulun fifty seven thousand and four hundred. ³² Among the children of Joseph, first among the children of Ephraim, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when the names of all that were apt to the war were told, from twenty years and above - ³³ were in number in the tribe of Ephraim, forty thousand, and six hundred. ³⁴ Among the children of Manasseh, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when the names of all that were apt to war were told, ³⁵ from twenty and above — were numbered in the tribe of Manasseh thirty two thousand and two hundred. ³⁶ Among the children of Benjamin, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — by the tale of names, from twenty years and above of all that were mete for war - ³⁷ were numbered in the tribe of Benjamin thirty five thousand and four hundred. ³⁸ Among the children of Dan, their generation in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — in the sum of names of all that was apt to war, ³⁹ from twenty years and above — were numbered in the tribe of Dan fifty seven thousand and seven hundred. ⁴⁰ Among the children of Asher, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when they were summed by name, from twenty years and above, all that were apt to war - ⁴¹ were numbered in the tribe of Asher forty one thousand and five hundred. ⁴² Among the children of Naphtali, their generation in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when their names were told, from twenty years and above, whatsoever was mete to war - ⁴³ were numbered in the tribe of Naphtali fifty three thousand and four hundred. ⁴⁴ These are the numbers which Moses and Aaron numbered with the twelve princes of Israel: of every house of their fathers, a man. ⁴⁵ And all the numbers of the children of Israel, in the houses of their fathers, from twenty years and above, whatsoever was mete for the war in Israel, ⁴⁶ drew unto the sum of six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty. ⁴⁷ But the Levites in the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them. ⁴⁸ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, ⁴⁹ "Only see that thou number not the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel. ⁵⁰ But thou shalt appoint the Levites unto the habitation of witness, and to all the apparel thereof and unto all that longeth thereto. For they shall bear the tabernacle and all the ordinance thereof, and they shall minister it and shall pitch their tents round about it. ⁵¹ And when the tabernacle goeth forth, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is pitched, they shall set it up: for if any stranger come near, he shall die. ⁵² And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man in his own company and every man by his own standard throughout all their hosts. ⁵³ But the Levites shall pitch round about the habitation of witness, that there fall no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel, and the Levites shall wait upon the habitation of witness." ⁵⁴ And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.

¹ And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, that is to say in the land of Canaan. ² And these are the generations of Jacob. When Joseph was seventeen years old, he kept sheep with his brethren, and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah and of Zilpah his father's wives. And he brought unto their father an evil saying that was of them. ³ And Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he begat him in his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors. ⁴ When his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him and could not speak one kind word unto him. ⁵ Moreover, Joseph dreamed a dream and told it his brethren: wherefore they hated him yet the more. ⁶ And he said unto them, "Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed. ⁷ Behold, we were making sheaves in the field: and lo, my sheaf arose and stood upright, and yours stood round about and made obeisance to my sheaf." ⁸ Then said his brethren unto him, "What, shalt thou be our king or shalt thou reign over us?" And they hated him yet the more, because of his dream and of his words. ⁹ And he dreamed yet another dream and told it his brethren, saying, "Behold, I have had one dream more: me thought the sun and the moon and eleven stars made obeisance to me." ¹⁰ And when he had told it unto his father and his brethren, his father rebuked him, and said unto him, "What meaneth this dream which thou hast dreamed: shall I and thy mother and thy brethren come and fall on the ground before thee?" ¹¹ And his brethren hated him, but his father noted the saying. ¹² His brethren went to keep their father's sheep in Shechem, ¹³ and Israel said unto Joseph, "Do not thy brethren keep in Shechem? Come, that I may send thee to them." And he answered, "Here am I." ¹⁴ And he said unto him, "Go and see whether it be well with thy brethren and the sheep, and bring me word again." And sent him out of the vale of Hebron, for to go to Shechem. ¹⁵ And a certain man found him wandering out of his way in the field, and asked him what he sought. ¹⁶ And he answered, "I seek my brethren, tell me, I pray thee, where they keep sheep." ¹⁷ And the man said, "They are departed hence, for I heard them say, 'Let us go unto Dothan.'" Thus went Joseph after his brethren, and found them in Dothan. ¹⁸ And when they saw him afar off before he came at them, they took counsel against him, for to slay him, ¹⁹ and said one to another, "Behold, this dreamer cometh; ²⁰ come now and let us slay him and cast him into some pit, and let us say that some wicked beast hath devoured him, and let us see what his dreams will come to." ²¹ When Reuben heard that, he went about to rid him out of their hands, and said, "Let us not kill him." ²² And Reuben said moreover unto them, "Shed not his blood, but cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hands upon him." For he would have rid him out of their hands and delivered him to his father again. ²³ And as soon as Joseph was come unto his brethren, they stripped him out of his gay coat that was upon him, ²⁴ and they took him and cast him into a pit. But the pit was empty and had no water therein. ²⁵ And they sat them down to eat bread. And as they lift up their eyes and looked about, there came a company of Ishmaelites from Gilead, and their camels laden with spicery, balm, and myrrh, and were going down into Egypt. ²⁶ Then said Judah to his brethren, "What availeth it that we slay our brother, and keep his blood secret? ²⁷ Come on, let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hands be defiled upon him: for he is our brother and our flesh." And his brethren were content. ²⁸ Then as the Midianites merchant men passed by, they drew Joseph out of the pit and sold him unto the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. And they brought him into Egypt. ²⁹ And when Reuben came again unto the pit and found not Joseph there, he rent his clothes, ³⁰ and went again unto his brethren, saying, "The lad is not yonder, and whither shall I go?" ³¹ And they took Joseph's coat and killed a goat, and dipped the coat in the blood. ³² And they sent that gay coat and caused it to be brought unto their father and said, "This have we found: see, whether it be thy son's coat or no." ³³ And he knew it, saying, "It is my son's coat: a wicked beast hath devoured him, and Joseph is rent in pieces." ³⁴ And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth about his loins, and sorrowed for his son a long season. ³⁵ Then came all his sons and all his daughters to comfort him. And he would not be comforted, but said, "I will go down into the grave unto my son, mourning." And thus his father wept for him. ³⁶ And the Midianites sold him in Egypt unto Potiphar, a lord of Pharaoh's: and his chief marshal.

¹ Joseph was brought unto Egypt, and Potiphar — a lord of Pharaoh's, and his chief marshal, an Egyptian — bought him of the Ishmaelites which brought him thither. ² And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a lucky fellow and continued in the house of his master the Egyptian. ³ And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand. ⁴ Wherefore he found grace in his master's sight, and served him. And his master made him ruler of his house, and put all that he had in his hand. ⁵ And as soon as he had made him ruler over his house and over all that he had, the LORD blessed this Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake, and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had: both in the house and also in the fields. ⁶ And therefore he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and looked upon nothing that was with him, save only on the bread which he ate. And Joseph was a goodly person and a well favored. ⁷ And it fortuned, after this, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, "Come lie with me." ⁸ But he denied, and said to her, "Behold, my master knoweth not what he hath in the house with me, but hath committed all that he hath to my hand. ⁹ He himself is not greater in the house than I, and hath kept nothing from me, but only thee because thou art his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, for to sin against God?" ¹⁰ And after this manner spake she to Joseph day by day; but he hearkened not unto her, to sleep near her or to be in her company. ¹¹ And it fortuned about the same season, that Joseph entered into the house, to do his business: and there was none of the household by, in the house. ¹² And she caught him by the garment, saying, "Come, sleep with me." And he left his garment in her hand and fled and got him out. ¹³ When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled out, ¹⁴ she called unto the men of the house, and told them, saying, "See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to do us shame: for he came in to me, for to have slept with me. But I cried with a loud voice. ¹⁵ And when he heard that I lift up my voice and cried, he left his garment with me and fled away and got him out." ¹⁶ And she laid up his garment by her, until her lord came home. ¹⁷ And she told him according to these words, saying, "This Hebrews' servant which thou hast brought unto us came in to me to do me shame. ¹⁸ But as soon as I lift up my voice and cried, he left his garment with me and fled out." ¹⁹ When his master heard the words of his wife which she told him, saying, "after this manner did thy servant to me," he waxed wroth. ²⁰ And he took Joseph and put him in prison: even in the place where the king's prisoners lay bound. And there continued he in prison, ²¹ but the LORD was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and got him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison; ²² which committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison house. And whatsoever was done there, that did he. ²³ And the keeper of the prison looked unto nothing that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him, and because that whatsoever he did, the LORD made it come luckily to pass.

²⁴ And he turned from them and wept, and then turned to them again and communed with them, and took out Simeon from among them and bound him before their eyes,

²⁰ And we answered my lord, 'We have a father that is old, and a young lad which he begat in his age: and the brother of the said lad is dead, and he is all that is left of that mother. And his father loveth him.'

³ And he said, "I am that mighty God of thy father, fear not to go down into Egypt. For I will make of thee there a great people. ⁴ I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will also bring thee up again, and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes."

¹ after these deeds, tidings were brought unto Joseph, that his father was sick. And he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. ² Then was it said unto Jacob, "Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee." And Israel took his strength unto him, and sat up on the bed, ³ and said unto Joseph, "God almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, ⁴ and said unto me, "Behold, I will make thee grow and will multiply thee, and will make a great number of people of thee, and will give this land unto thee, and unto thy seed after thee, unto an everlasting possession. ⁵ Now therefore thy two sons Manasseh and Ephraim which were born unto thee before I came to thee, into Egypt, shall be mine: even as Reuben and Simeon shall they be unto me.

⁵ Now therefore thy two sons Manasseh and Ephraim which were born unto thee before I came to thee, into Egypt, shall be mine: even as Reuben and Simeon shall they be unto me. ⁶ And the children which thou gettest after them, shall be thine own: but shall be called with the names of their brethren in their inheritances. ⁷ And after I came from Mesopotamia, Rachel died upon my hand in the land of Canaan, by the way: when I had but a field's breadth to go unto Ephrata. And I buried her there in the way to Ephrata which is now called Bethlehem." ⁸ And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, "What are these?" ⁹ And Joseph said unto his father, "They are my sons, which God hath given me here." And he said, "Bring them to me, and let me bless them." ¹⁰ And the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them to him, and he kissed them and embraced them. ¹¹ And Israel said unto Joseph, "I had not thought to have seen thy face, and yet lo, God hath showed it me and also thy seed." ¹² And Joseph took them away from his lap, and they fell on the ground before him. ¹³ Then took Joseph them both: Ephraim in his righthand, toward Israel's lefthand, and Manasseh in his lefthand, toward Israel's righthand, and brought them unto him. ¹⁴ And Israel stretched out his righthand and laid it upon Ephraim's head which was the younger, and his lefthand upon Manasseh's head, crossing his hands; for Manasseh was the elder. ¹⁵ And he blessed Joseph saying, "God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, and the God which hath fed me all my life long unto this day; ¹⁶ And the angel which hath delivered me from all evil, bless these lads: that they may be called after my name, and after my father Abraham and Isaac, and that they may grow and multiply upon the earth." ¹⁷ When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. And he lift up his father's hand, to have removed it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head, ¹⁸ and said unto his father, "Not so my father, for this is the eldest. Put thy righthand upon his head." ¹⁹ And his father would not, but said, "I know it well my son, I know it well. He shall be also a people and shall be great. But of a truth his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall be full of people."

²⁷ "Benjamin is a ravishing wolf.

Which field Abraham bought of Ephron the Hittite for a possession to bury in. ³¹ There they buried Abraham and Sara his wife, there they buried Isaac and Rebecca his wife.

¹⁴ These be the heads of their father's houses.

²¹ Beware of him and hear his voice and anger him not: for he will not spare your misdeeds, yea and my name is in him. ²² But and if thou shalt hearken unto his voice and keep all that I shall tell thee, then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies and an adversary unto thine adversaries.

²² "There I will meet thee and will commune with thee from upon the mercy seat from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of witness, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.

¹² "When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel and tellest them, they shall give every man a reconciling of his soul unto the LORD, that there be no plague among them when thou tellest them.

¹⁴ And all that are numbered of them that are twenty years old and above shall give a heave offering unto the LORD.

¹⁸ And when the LORD had made an end of communing with Moses upon the mount Sinai, he gave him two tables of witness: which were of stone and written with the finger of God.

²⁶ he went and stood in the gate of the host and said, "If any man pertain unto the LORD, let him come to me." And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together and came unto him. ²⁷ And he said unto them, "Thus sayeth the LORD of Israel, 'Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the host: and slay every man his brother, every man his friend and every man his neighbor." ²⁸ And the children of Levi did as Moses had said. And there were slain of the people the same day, about three thousand men. ²⁹ Then Moses said, "Fill your hands unto the LORD this day, every man upon his son and upon his brother: to bring upon you a blessing this day."

²¹ This is the sum of the habitation of witness, which was counted at the commandment of Moses: and was the office of the Levites by the hand of Ithamar son to Aaron the priest.

²⁶ Every man offering half a sicle after the weight of the holy sicle among them that went to be numbered from twenty years old and above, among six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.

³² Thus was all the work of the habitation of the tabernacle of witness finished. And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD had commanded Moses.

⁴³ And Moses beheld all the work, and see, they had done it even as the LORD commanded: and then Moses blessed them.

² "In the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the habitation of the tabernacle of witness,

¹⁶ And Moses did according to all that the LORD commanded him. ¹⁷ Thus was the tabernacle reared up, the first month in the second year.

⁶ And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and Ithamar his eldest sons, "Uncover not your head, neither rent your clothes; lest ye die and wrath come upon all the people. Let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, beweep the burning which the LORD hath burnt.

¹⁰ "'There shall no stranger eat of the hallowed things, neither a guest of the priests, or a hired servant. ¹¹ But if the priest buy any fowl with money he may eat of it, and he also that is born in his house may eat of his bread. ¹² If the priest's daughter be married unto a stranger, she may not eat of the hallowed heave offerings. ¹³ Notwithstanding, if the priest's daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, but is returned unto her father's house again, she shall eat of her father's bread as well as she did in her youth. But there shall no stranger eat thereof.

³⁴ These are the commandments which the LORD gave Moses in charge to give unto the children of Israel in mount Sinai.

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of witness, the first day of the second month, and in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, ² "Take ye the sum of all the multitude of the children of Israel, in their kindreds and households of their fathers and number them by name all that are males, poll by poll,

Go with us and we will do thee good, for the LORD hath promised good unto Israel." ³⁰ And he said unto him, "I will not: but will go to mine own land and to my kindred." ³¹ And Moses said, "Oh nay, leave us not, for thou knowest where is best for us to pitch in the wilderness: and thou shalt be our eyes. ³² And if thou go with us, look what goodness the LORD showeth upon us, the same we will show upon thee." ³³ And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them in the three days' journey to search out a resting place for them. ³⁴ And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they went out of the tents. ³⁵ And when the ark went forth, Moses said, "Rise up LORD and let thine enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee flee before thee." ³⁶ And when the ark rested, he said, "Return LORD, unto the many thousands of Israel."

¹⁷ And I will come down and talk with thee there, and take of the spirit which is upon thee and put upon them, and they shall bear with thee in the burden of the people, and so shalt thou not bear alone.

² "Send men out to search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers, a man; and let them all be such as are rulers among them." ³ And Moses, at the commandment of the LORD, sent forth out of the wilderness of Paran such men as were all heads among the children of Israel, whose names are these: ⁴ In the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur. ⁵ In the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. ⁶ In the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. ⁷ In the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. ⁸ In the tribe of Ephraim, Hosea the son of Nun. ⁹ In the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. ¹⁰ In the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. ¹¹ In the tribe of Joseph, in the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi. ¹² In the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. ¹³ In the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. ¹⁴ In the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. ¹⁵ In the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.

² stood up before Moses, with other of the children of Israel: two hundred and fifty, heads of the congregation, and councilors, and men of fame.

⁴⁰ to be a remembrance unto the children of Israel, that no stranger which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer cense before the LORD, that he be not made like unto Korah and his company: as the LORD said unto him by the hand of Moses.

⁴⁶ And Moses said unto Aaron, "Take a censer and put fire therein out of the altar, and pour on cense, and go quickly unto the congregation and make an atonement for them. For there is wrath gone out from the LORD, and there is a plague begun."

³ And write Aaron's name upon the staff of Levi: for every headman over the houses of their fathers shall have a rod.

² And thy brethren also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father take with thee, and let them be joined unto thee and minister unto thee. And thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the tabernacle of witness. ³ And let them wait upon thee and upon all the tabernacle: only let them not come nigh the holy vessels and the altar, that both they and ye also die not. ⁴ And let them be by thee and wait on the tabernacle of witness, and on all the service of the tabernacle, and let no stranger come nigh unto you. ⁵ Wait therefore upon the holy place and upon the altar, that there fall no more wrath upon the children of Israel:

²² that the children of Israel henceforth come not nigh the tabernacle of witness, and bear sin and die.

¹¹ And Moses lift up his hand with his staff and smote the rock two times, and the water came out abundantly, and the multitude drank and their beasts also.

¹⁰ Who can tell the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? I pray God that my soul may die the death of the righteous, and that my last end may be like his!"

²³ For there is no sorcerer in Jacob, nor soothsayer in Israel. When the time cometh, it will be said of Jacob and of Israel, 'What God hath wrought!' ²⁴ Behold, the people shall rise up as a lioness and heave up himself as a lion; and shall not lie down again, until he have eaten of the prey and drunk of the blood of them that are slain!" ²⁵ And Balak said unto Balaam, "Neither curse them nor bless them."

² and lift up his eyes and looked upon Israel as he lay with his tribes, and the spirit of God came upon him.

⁴ and said unto Moses, "Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up unto the LORD against the sun, that the wrath of the LORD may turn away from Israel."

⁸ and went after the man of Israel into the whorehouse, and thrust them through: both the man of Israel and also the woman even through the belly of her. And the plague ceased from the children of Israel. ⁹ And there died in the plague twenty four thousand.

¹⁴ The name of the Israelite which was smitten with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri the son of Salu, a lord of an ancient house among the Simeonites.

⁶² And the number of them was twenty three thousand, of all the males from a month old and above.

⁶⁴ And among these there was not a man of the number of the children of Israel which Moses and Aaron told in the wilderness of Sinai.

³⁰ And of the half of the children of Israel, take one of fifty of the women, of the oxen, of the asses and of the sheep, and of all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levites which wait upon the habitation of the LORD."

⁴⁷ And Moses took of this half that pertained unto the children of Israel: one of every fifty, both of the women and of the cattle, and gave them unto the Levites which waited upon the habitation of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

¹¹ 'None of the men that came out of Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land which I swore unto Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, because they have not continually followed me:

¹ These are the journeys of the children of Israel which went out of the land of Egypt with their armies under Moses and Aaron.

¹⁸ And ye shall take also a lord of every tribe to divide the land, ¹⁹ whose names are these: in the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh; ²⁰ and in the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud; ²¹ and in the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon; ²² and in the tribe of the children of Dan, the lord Bukki the son of Jogli; ²³ and among the children of Joseph: in the tribe of the children of Manasseh, the lord Hanniel the son of Ephod; ²⁴ and in the tribe of the children of Ephraim, the lord Kemuel the son of Shiphtan; ²⁵ and in the tribe of the sons of Zebulon, the lord Elizaphan the son of Parnach; ²⁶ and in the tribe of the children of Issachar, the lord Paltiel the son of Azzan; ²⁷ and in the tribe of the sons of Asher, the lord Ahihud the son of Shelomi; ²⁸ and in the tribe of the children of Naphtali, the lord Pedahel the son of Ammihud."

¹⁵ And then I took the heads of your tribes, men of wisdom and that were expert, and made them rulers over you: captains over thousands and over hundreds, over fifty and over ten, and officers among your tribes.

¹⁸ And I commanded you the same time, ye Reuben and Gad, saying, 'The LORD your God hath given you this land to enjoy it: see that ye go harnessed before your brethren the children of Israel, all that are men of war among you.

²² Thy fathers went down into Egypt with seventy souls, and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven in multitude.

³² But whatsoever I command you, that take heed ye do: and put nought thereto, nor take ought therefrom.

⁵ When a man taketh a new wife, he shall not go a warfare neither shall be charged with any business: but shall be free at home one year and rejoice with his wife which he hath taken.

¹ This is the blessing wherewith Moses, God's man, blessed the children of Israel before his death, ² saying, "The LORD came from Sinai, and showed his beams from Seir unto them; and appeared gloriously from mount Paran, and he came with thousands of saints, and in his righthand a law of fire for them. ³ How loved he the people? All his saints are in his hand. They shall set themselves down at thy feet, and receive of thy words. ⁴ Moses gave us a law which is the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob. ⁵ And he was in the fullness of the king, and held the rulers of the people together, with the tribes of Israel. ⁶ Reuben shall live and shall not die: but his people shall be few in number. This is the blessing of Judah." ⁷ And he said, "Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah and bring him unto his people: let his hands fight for him: but be thou his help against his enemies." ⁸ And unto Levi he said, "Thy perfectness and thy light be according unto the man of thy mercy, who thou hast tempted at Massah, when ye strove by the waters of strife. ⁹ He that sayeth unto his father and mother, 'I saw him not,' and unto his brethren, 'I knew not,' and to his son, 'I know not': for they have observed thy words and kept thy covenant. ¹⁰ They shall teach Jacob thy judgments and Israel thy laws. They shall put cense before thy nose and whole sacrifices upon thine altar. ¹¹ Bless, LORD, their power, and accept the works of their hands: smite the backs of them that rise against them and of them that hate them, that they rise not again." ¹² Unto Benjamin he said, "The LORD's darling shall dwell in safety by him and keep himself in the haven by him continually, and shall dwell between his shoulders." ¹³ And unto Joseph he said, "Blessed of the LORD is his land with the goodly fruits of heaven, with dew and with springs that lie beneath: ¹⁴ and with fruits of the increase of the sun and with ripe fruit of the months, ¹⁵ and with the tops of mountains that were from the beginning and with the dainties of hills that last ever, ¹⁶ and with goodly fruit of the earth and of the fullness thereof. And the goodwill of him that dwelleth in the bush shall come upon the head of Joseph and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from among his brethren. ¹⁷ His beauty is as a firstborn ox and his horns as the horns of an unicorn. And with them he shall push the nations together, even unto the ends of the world. These are the many thousands of Ephraim and the thousands of Manasseh."

¹⁷ His beauty is as a firstborn ox and his horns as the horns of an unicorn. And with them he shall push the nations together, even unto the ends of the world. These are the many thousands of Ephraim and the thousands of Manasseh." ¹⁸ And unto Zebulun he said, "Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out, and thou, Issachar, in thy tents. ¹⁹ They shall call the people unto the hill, and there they shall offer offerings of righteousness. For they shall suck of the abundance of the sea and of treasure hid in the sand." ²⁰ And unto Gad he said, "Blessed is the room-maker Gad. He dwelleth as a lion that catcheth the arm with the of the head. ²¹ He saw, therefore, his beginning, and that there was a portion there to hide the lawgiver; and he came with the heads of the people, and executed the righteousness of the LORD and his judgments with Israel." ²² And unto Dan he said, "Dan is a lion's whelp, he shall flow from Bashan." ²³ And unto Naphtali he said, "Naphtali, he shall have abundance of pleasure and shall be filled with the blessing of the LORD and shall have his possessions in the southwest." ²⁴ And of Asher he said, "Asher shall be blessed with children: he shall be acceptable unto his brethren and shall dip his foot in oil. ²⁵ Iron and brass shall hang on thy shoes and thine age shall be as thy youth. ²⁶ There is none like unto the God of Israel: he that sitteth upon heaven shall be thine help, whose glory is in the clouds: ²⁷ that is the dwelling place of God from the beginning, and from under the arms of the world. He hath cast out thine enemies before thee and said, 'Destroy.' ²⁸ And Israel shall dwell in safety alone. And the eyes of Jacob shall look upon a land of corn and wine. Moreover, his heaven shall drop with dew. ²⁹ Happy art thou Israel: who is like unto thee? A people that art saved by the LORD; thy shield, and helper, and sword of thy glory. And thine enemies shall hide themselves from thee, and thou shalt walk upon their high hills."

¹⁴ and with him ten lords of every chief house a lord throughout all the tribes of Israel, which heads of their fathers' households were over the thousands of Israel.

¹⁵ And he answered him, "Oh Lord, wherewith should I save Israel? Behold my kindred is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house."

⁴⁴ And there were slain of Benjamin eighteen thousand, and all men of might. ⁴⁵ And they turned and fled to the wilderness ward and unto the rock of pomegranates. And the other slew by the way of the rest of them, five thousand men, and sticked unto them until they came to Gidom, and slew two thousand more of them. ⁴⁶ So that all that were slain that same day of Benjamin were twenty five thousand men that drew swords, and all men of might.

¹⁸ This is the generation of Perez: Perez begat Hezron,

²⁰ Amminadab begat Nahshon, Nahshon begat Salmon,

¹⁹ And he plagued the men of Bethshemesh, because they had seen the ark of the LORD. And he slew of the people fifty thousand and three score and ten persons. And the people lamented, because the LORD had slain so great a slaughter of them.

²² Then said Samuel, "Hath the LORD as great pleasure in burnt sacrifices and offerings, as he hath that thou shouldest obey his voice? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to give heed is better than the fat of rams.

⁷ he said unto his servants that stood about him, "Hear I pray you, you sons of Benjamin: will the son of Jesse also give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains over thousands and over hundreds,

²³ See therefore and know all the lurking places where he lurketh, and come again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you. And then if he be in the land, I will hunt him out with all the thousands of Judah.

⁷ And the LORD was wrath with Uzzah; and God smote him in the same place for his fault, and there he died by the ark of God.

¹ And the LORD was wroth again against Israel, and stirred up David against them, saying, "Go and number both Israel and Judah."

¹ And the LORD was wroth again against Israel, and stirred up David against them, saying, "Go and number both Israel and Judah." ² And forthwith the king said to Joab the captain of his Host, "Go abroad, I pray thee, throughout all the tribes of Israel, even from Dan to Beersheba, and number the people that I may know the number of them."

² And forthwith the king said to Joab the captain of his Host, "Go abroad, I pray thee, throughout all the tribes of Israel, even from Dan to Beersheba, and number the people that I may know the number of them." ³ And Joab said unto the king, "I beseech that the LORD thy God make the people as many more as they be: yea and a hundred times so many more, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see them. But how is it that my lord the king hath a lust in this thing?"

³ And Joab said unto the king, "I beseech that the LORD thy God make the people as many more as they be: yea and a hundred times so many more, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see them. But how is it that my lord the king hath a lust in this thing?" ⁴ Notwithstanding, the king's words prevailed against Joab and against all the captains of the Host. Then Joab and the captains of the Host went out from the king, to view the people of Israel. ⁵ And they passed over Jordan and pitched in Aroer on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the valley of Gad and so forth to Jazer. ⁶ And then they went to Gilead and to the nether land of Hodshi, and from thence to Dan-Jaan, and about to Sidon, ⁷ and came to the strong town of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Cananites, and then went out to the South of Judah even to Beersheba. ⁸ And so when they had been abroad throughout all the land they returned to Jerusalem again at the end of nine months and twenty days. ⁹ And then Joab delivered up the reckoning of the number of the people unto the king. And there were found in Israel nine hundred thousand men of might that drew swords. And the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.

⁹ And then Joab delivered up the reckoning of the number of the people unto the king. And there were found in Israel nine hundred thousand men of might that drew swords. And the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men. ¹⁰ And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And he said unto the LORD, "I have sinned exceedingly in that I have done. And now LORD take away the trespass of thy servant: for I have done foolishly."

²⁰ And Judah and Israel were many, even as the sand of the sea in number, eating, drinking, and making merry.

¹ And it came to pass, the four hundred and fourscore year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, and the fourth year of the reign of Solomon upon Israel, and the second month called Ziv, that he began to build the temple unto the LORD.

¹⁰ And Ram begat Amminadab: and Amminadab begat Nahshon, a lord among the children of Judah. ¹¹ And Nahshon begat Salmon; and Salma begat Boaz;

¹ The sons of Reuben, the eldest son of Israel: for he was the eldest. But because he defied his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel, and so he is not reckoned unto the birthright. ² For unto Judah which was mighty among his brethren, was given the principality before him. But the birthright was given Joseph.

And the sons of Samuel: the eldest Joel and then Abijah. ²⁹ The sons of Merari: Mahli, and his son Libni, and his son Shimei, and his son Uzzah, ³⁰ and his son Shimea, and his son Haggiah, and his son Asaiah. ³¹ These be they which David set for to sing in the house of the LORD, after that the Ark had rest. ³² And they ministered before the dwelling place of the tabernacle of witness with singing, until Solomon had built the temple of the LORD in Jerusalem. And then they waited on their offices, according to the order of them. ³³ These are they that waited with their children of the sons of Kohath: Heman a singer, which was the son of Joel, the son of Samuel, ³⁴ the son of Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Eliel, the son of Toah, ³⁵ the son of Zuph, the son of Elkanah, the son of Mahath, the son of Amasai, ³⁶ the son of Elkanah, the son of Joel, the son of Azariah, the son of Zephaniah, ³⁷ the son of Tahath, the son of Assir, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, ³⁸ the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, the son of Israel. ³⁹ And his brother Asaph stood on his righthand, which was the son of Berechiah, the son of Shimea, ⁴⁰ the son of Michael, the son of Baaseiah, the son of Melchijah, ⁴¹ the son of Ethni, the son of Zerah, the son of Adaiah, ⁴² the son of Ethan, the son of Zimmah, the son of Shimei, ⁴³ the son of Jahath, the son of Gershom, the son of Levi. ⁴⁴ And their brethren the sons of Merari stood on the left hand: Ethan the son of Kishi, the son of Abdi, the son of Malluch, ⁴⁵ the son of Hashabiah, the son of Amaziah, the son of Hilkiah, ⁴⁶ the son of Amzi, the son of Bani, the son of Shemer, ⁴⁷ the son of Mahli, the son of Mushi, the son of Merari, the son of Levi. ⁴⁸ Their brethren the Levites were appointed unto all manner service of the tabernacle of the house of God. ⁴⁹ But Aaron and his sons burnt upon the altar of burnt offerings and on the altar of cense, and were appointed unto all that was to do in the place most holy, and to make an atonement for Israel in all points according as Moses the servant of God had commanded. ⁵⁰ These are the sons of Aaron: Eleazar, whose son was Phinehas, and his son Abishua, ⁵¹ and his son Bukki, and the son of him Uzzi, and his son Zerahiah, ⁵² and the son of him Meraioth, and his son Amariah, and the son of him Ahitub, ⁵³ and Zadoc his son, and Ahimaaz his son. ⁵⁴ And these are the dwelling places of them in their towns and coasts: I mean, of the sons of Aaron of the kindred of the Kohathites, for so their lot fell. ⁵⁵ They gave unto them Hebron in the land of Judah with the suburbs round about it. ⁵⁶ But the country and villages pertaining thereto, they gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh. ⁵⁷ And to the sons of Aaron they gave the franchised cities, Hebron and Libnah, with their suburbs; and Jattir and Eshtemoa with their suburbs; ⁵⁸ and Hilen with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs; ⁵⁹ and Ashan with her suburbs, and Bethshemesh with her suburbs. ⁶⁰ And out of the tribe of Benjamin, Geba and her suburbs, Alemath with her suburbs, Anathoth with her suburbs: so that all their cities among their kindreds were thirteen. ⁶¹ And unto the sons of Kohath the remnant of the kin of the tribe, were cities given out of the half tribe of Manasseh, by lot, ten cities. ⁶² And unto the sons of Gershom among their kindreds were given out of the tribe of Issachar and out of the tribe of Asher and out of the tribe of Naphtali, and out of the tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, thirteen cities. ⁶³ And unto the sons of Merari were given by lot among their kindreds and out of the tribe of Reuben, and out of the tribe of Gad, and out of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve cities. ⁶⁴ And the children of Israel gave the Levites such cities with their suburbs, ⁶⁵ and that by Lot, out of the tribe of children of Judah out of the tribe of Simeon and out of the tribe of the children of Benjamin: even the said cities that are rehearsed by name. ⁶⁶ And concerning the sons of Kohath, the cities of their coasts were of the tribe of Ephraim. ⁶⁷ In which tribe they gave unto them the cities of Refuge: Shechem in mount Ephraim with her suburbs, and Gezer with her suburbs, ⁶⁸ Jokmeam with her suburbs, Bethhoron with her suburbs, ⁶⁹ Aijalon with her suburbs, and Gathrimmon with her suburbs. ⁷⁰ And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, Aner with her suburbs, and Bileam with her suburbs among the kindreds of the remnant of the sons of Kohath. ⁷¹ And unto the sons of Gershom were given out of the kindred of the half tribe of Manasseh: Golan in Bashan with her suburbs and Ashtaroth with her suburbs. ⁷² And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kadesh with her suburbs, Daberath with her suburbs, ⁷³ Ramoth with her suburbs and Anem with her suburbs. ⁷⁴ And out of Asher, Mashal with her suburbs, Abdon with her suburbs, ⁷⁵ Hukok with her suburbs and Rehob with her suburbs. ⁷⁶ And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kadesh in Galilee with her suburbs, Hammon with her suburbs, and Kiriathjearim with her suburbs. ⁷⁷ And unto the rest of the children of Merari were given out of the tribe of Zebulun, Rimmono with her suburbs and Tabor with her suburbs. ⁷⁸ And on the other side Jordan by Jericho, even on the east side of Jordan, were given them out of the tribe of Reuben: Bezer in the wilderness with her suburbs, Jahzah with her suburbs, ⁷⁹ Kedemoth with her suburbs, Mephaath with her suburbs. ⁸⁰ And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, Mahanaim with her suburbs, ⁸¹ Heshbon with her suburbs, and Jazer with her suburbs.

¹ And Satan stood up against Israel, and persuaded David to number Israel. ² And David said to Joab and the rulers of the people, "Go ye and number Israel from Beersheba to Dan, and bring it to me that I may know the number of them."

⁵ and gave the number of the count of the people unto David. And all Israel were in number a thousand, thousand and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew sword. ⁶ But the Levites and Benjamin he counted not among them. For the king's deed seemed abominable to Joab.

¹ And when David was old and stricken in years, he made Solomon his son king over Israel. ² And then he gathered together all the lords of Israel with the priests and the Levites. ³ And the Levites were numbered from thirty years and above, and the tale of them in men, poll by poll, was thirty eight thousand. ⁴ Of which twenty four thousand were set to further the work of the house of the LORD. And six thousand were officers and judges. ⁵ Four thousand were porters and four thousand praised the LORD with such instruments as David had made to praise withal. ⁶ And David put an order among the children of Levi: Gershon, Kohath and Merari. ⁷ Of the Gershonites was Ladan and Shimei. ⁸ The sons of Ladan: the chief was Jehiel and then Zetham and Joel, three. ⁹ The sons of Shimei: Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the ancient heads of Ladan. ¹⁰ And the sons of Shimei were also Jahath, Zina, Jeush and Beriah: these four were the sons of Shimei. ¹¹ And Jahath was the chief, Zina the second. But Jeush and Beriah had not many sons, and therefore they were reckoned for one ancient household. ¹² The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel, four. ¹³ The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. And Aaron was appointed to consecrate in the place most holy, with his sons forever: and to burn the offerings before the LORD, and to minister, and to bless in his name forever. ¹⁴ And as for Moses the man of God, his children were named with the tribe of Levi. ¹⁵ The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer. ¹⁶ And of the sons of Gershom: Shebuel was the chief. ¹⁷ The sons of Eliezer: Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had no other sons: But the sons of Rehabiah were very many. ¹⁸ And of the sons of Izhar: Shelomith, the chief. ¹⁹ The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third and Jekameam the fourth. ²⁰ The sons of Uzziel: Micah the first and Isshiah the second. ²¹ The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish. ²² And Eleazar died and had no sons, but daughters only, which their brethren, the sons of Kish, took. ²³ The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jerimoth, three. ²⁴ These are the children of Levi in the households of their fathers the ancient heads, viewed and numbered by name and poll by poll from twenty year and above, to work in the service of the house of the LORD. ²⁵ For David said, "The LORD God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, and they shall dwell in Jerusalem forever. ²⁶ Moreover, the Levites should now no more bear the tabernacle and all the vessels that pertain to the service thereof." - ²⁷ But at the last commandment of David, the Levites were numbered from twenty years and above - ²⁸ "To wait at the hands of the sons of Aaron in the service of the house of the LORD, and to have the oversight of the courts and of the store houses, and of the purifying of all holy things, and of the work of the things that served for the house of God, ²⁹ as the shewbread, the fine flour, the meat offerings, the flawnes of sweet bread, and of the things baken in the frying pan, or broiled on the gridiron, and on all manner measures and size ³⁰ and to wait every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at evening. ³¹ And to wait on every offering of burnt sacrifices unto the LORD, the Sabbaths and first days of the months, and other feastful days by number and custom, was their office ever before the LORD. ³² And that they should wait on the tabernacle of witness and on the holy place, and on the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.

³² And that they should wait on the tabernacle of witness and on the holy place, and on the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.

¹ And David and the captains of the host appointed out to do service, the sons of Asaph of Heman and Jeduthun, which did prophesy with harps, psalteries and cymbals. And they were numbered unto the work according to their office. ² The sons of Asaph: Zaccur, Joseph, Nethaniah, Asharelah, to wait on Asaph which prophesied by the king. ³ The sons of Jeduthun: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Hashabiah and Mattithiah-Shimei, six, at the hands of their fathers Jeduthun, with harps: which Jeduthun prophesied for to thank and praise the LORD. ⁴ The sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamtiezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir and Mahazioth. ⁵ All these were of the sons of Heman the king's seer of visions with the word of God, to lift up the horn. God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters. ⁶ All these were at the hand of their father to sing in the house of the LORD with cymbals, psalteries and harps in the service of the house of God. And at the hand of the king was Asaph, Jeduthun and Heman: ⁷ But the multitude of them were with their brethren that were cunning in the song of the LORD. And the number of all that taught, were two hundred and fourscore and eight. ⁸ And they cast Lots indifferently how they should wait: the small as well as the great, the scholar as well as the schoolmaster. ⁹ And the first lot of Asaph fell to Joseph. The second to Gedaliah with his brethren and sons, twelve persons. ¹⁰ The third fell to Zaccur with his sons and brethren, being twelve persons. ¹¹ The fourth to Izri with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹² The fifth to Nethaniah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹³ The sixth to Bukkiah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁴ The seventh to Jesharelah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁵ The eighth to Jeshaiah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁶ The ninth to Mattaniah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁷ The tenth to Shimei with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁸ The eleventh to Azarel with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ¹⁹ The twelfth to Hashabiah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²⁰ The thirteenth to Shubael with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²¹ The fourteenth to Mattithiah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²² The fifteenth to Jerimoth with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²³ The sixteenth to Hananiah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²⁴ The seventeenth to Joshbekashah with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²⁵ The eighteenth to Hanani with his sons and brethren, twelve persons. ²⁶ The nineteenth to Mallothi with his sons and brethren, twelve persons.

¹ So speak of the children of Israel: in the number of them were ancient heads and captains of thousands and hundreds, and officers that served the king in all things according to the companies that came in or went out, month by month throughout all the months of the year. And every company had twenty four thousand. ² Over the first company in the first month, was Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel. And in his number twenty four thousand. ³ And the chiefest of all the captains in the host of the first month was of the children of Perez. ⁴ Over the company of the second month Dodai an Ahohite, and in his host was Mikloth a ruler. And in his company were twenty four thousand. ⁵ The chief captain of the third host in the third month, was Benaiah the son of Jehoiada the priest. And in his host twenty four thousand. ⁶ This is the Benaiah mighty among thirty and above thirty. And in his part was Ammizabad his son. ⁷ The fourth captain in the fourth month was Asahel the brother of Joab, and Zebadiah his son after him. And in his host were twenty four thousand. ⁸ The fifth captain in the fifth month was: Shamhuth the Izrahite: and in his host were twenty four thousand. ⁹ The sixth captain in the sixth month was Ira the son of Ikkesh a Tekoite: and in his host were twenty four thousand. ¹⁰ The seventh captain in the seventh month was Helez the Pelonite, of the children of Ephraim: and in his host twenty four thousand. ¹¹ The eighth Captain in the eighth month was Sibbecai an Hushathite of the kin of Sarah. And in his host twenty four thousand. ¹² The ninth Captain in the ninth month was Abiezer an Antothite of the sons of Benjamin: and in his host twenty four thousand. ¹³ The tenth captain in the tenth month, was Maharai the Netophathite of the Zerahites. And in his host twenty four thousand. ¹⁴ The eleventh month, was Benaiah the Pirathonite of the children of Ephraim: and in his host twenty four thousand. ¹⁵ The twelfth Captain in the twelfth month, was Heldai the Netophathite of Othniel, and in his host twenty four thousand. ¹⁶ And the rulers over the tribes of Israel were these. Among the Reubenites, was Eliezer the son of Zichri. Among the Simeonites, was Shephatiah the son of Maacah. ¹⁷ Among the Levites, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel. Among the Aaronites, Zadok. ¹⁸ In Judah, Elihu of the brethren of David. In Issachar, Omri the son of Michael. ¹⁹ In Zebulun, Ishmaiah the son of Obadiah. In Naphtali, Jerimoth the son of Azriel. ²⁰ Among the children of Ephraim, Hosea the son of Azaziah. In the half tribe of Manasseh, Joel the son of Pedaiah. ²¹ Of the half tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zachariah. In Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner. ²² In Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham. These are the lords in the tribes of Israel. ²³ But David took not the number of them under twenty years: for the LORD said he would increase Israel like unto the stars of the sky. ²⁴ And Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number. And though he finished it not, yet there fell wrath for that upon Israel. And therefore the number was not put in the chronicles of king David.

³ And Abijah made a battle with an Host of fighting men of four hundred thousand chosen men. And Jeroboam put in array to fight against him, with eight hundred thousand picked men and strong.

¹⁰ But with us is the LORD our God whom we have not forsaken, and the priests of the sons of Aaron ministering unto the LORD, and the Levites in office:

¹³ And he had great substance in the cities of Judah, and fighting men and men of might in Jerusalem. ¹⁴ And this is the order in the houses of their fathers, of the captains over thousands in Judah: Adnah the captain, and with him of fighting men three hundred thousand.

¹⁴ And this is the order in the houses of their fathers, of the captains over thousands in Judah: Adnah the captain, and with him of fighting men three hundred thousand.

¹⁴ And this is the order in the houses of their fathers, of the captains over thousands in Judah: Adnah the captain, and with him of fighting men three hundred thousand. ¹⁵ And next to him, Jehohanan a captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.

¹⁵ And next to him, Jehohanan a captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.

¹⁵ And next to him, Jehohanan a captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand. ¹⁶ And by his side, Amasiah the son of Zichri, willing unto the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men.

¹⁶ And by his side, Amasiah the son of Zichri, willing unto the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men.

¹⁶ And by his side, Amasiah the son of Zichri, willing unto the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men. ¹⁷ And of the children of Benjamin, Eliada was a man of might, and had with him, armed with bows and shields, two hundred thousand.

¹⁷ And of the children of Benjamin, Eliada was a man of might, and had with him, armed with bows and shields, two hundred thousand.

¹⁷ And of the children of Benjamin, Eliada was a man of might, and had with him, armed with bows and shields, two hundred thousand. ¹⁸ And by his side Jehozabad, with whom were a hundred and eighty thousand trimmed for war.

¹⁸ And by his side Jehozabad, with whom were a hundred and eighty thousand trimmed for war. ¹⁹ These waited on the king, besides those which the king had put in strong cities throughout all Judah.

¹¹ And Uzziah had a host of fighting men that went out to war in the army and were told and numbered by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah an officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king's lords. ¹² And the whole number of the ancient heads of the men of might were two thousand and six hundred, ¹³ and under the hands of them was the army of the host, three hundred and seven thousand, and five hundred that made war with might and strength, to help the king against his enemies.

⁵⁹ And these went up also: Telmelah, Telharsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer; but they could not show their father's house, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel.

²⁵ and weighed them there the silver and gold and vessels for the heave offering unto the house of our God, which the king and his lords of his counsel and princes, and all Israel that were at hand, had given to the heave offering: ²⁶ And there weighed I them, under their hand, six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and in silver vessel a hundred talents, and in gold a hundred talents, ²⁷ twenty cups of gold of a thousand drams, and two costly ornaments of good brass, as clear as gold, ²⁸ and said unto them, "Ye are holy unto the LORD, therefore are these vessels holy also, and so is the silver and the gold that is given of a good will unto the LORD God of your fathers: ²⁹ Watch ye therefore and keep it, till ye weigh it down before the chief priests and Levites, and ancient fathers of Israel at Jerusalem in the chests of the house of the LORD." ³⁰ Then took the priests and the Levites that weighed silver and gold and vessel, to bring it to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.

³³ But on the fourth day was the silver and gold and vessels weighed in the house of our God under the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest, and with him Eleazar the son of Phinehas, and with them Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, the Levites, ³⁴ according to the number and weight of every one. And the weight was all written up at the same time.

⁶¹ And these went up also, Telmelah, Telharsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not show their father's house, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel.

⁸ The Levites were these: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, over the office of thanksgiving, they and their brethren:

²² And in the time of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan and Jaddua, were the chief fathers among the Levites and the priests written under the reign of Darius the Persian.

⁴⁷ In the time of Zerubbabel, and Nehemiah, did all Israel give portions unto the singers and porters, every day his portion, and they gave things hallowed unto the Levites, and the Levites gave things that were sanctified, unto the children of Aaron.

⁵ for he had made him a great chest, and there had they afore time laid the meat offerings, frankincense, vessel, and the tithes of corn, wine and oil - according to the commandment given to the Levites, singers and porters - and the heave offerings of the priests.

¹⁰ And I perceived that the portions of the Levites were not given them, for the which cause the Levites and singers were fled, everyone, to his land for to work. ¹¹ Then reproved I the rulers, and said, "Why forsake we the house of God?" But I gathered them together, and set them in their place. ¹² Then brought all Judah the tithes of corn, wine and oil unto the treasury. ¹³ And I made treasurers over the treasure, even Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah, and under their hand Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithful, and their office was to distribute unto their brethren.

²² And I said unto the Levites which were clean, that they should come and keep the gates, to hallow the Sabbath day. Think upon me, O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to thy great mercy!

⁴ For there the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, to testify unto Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

³¹ The Prophets teach falsely, and the priests follow them, and my people hath pleasure therein. What will come thereof at the last?

¹⁵ Therefore thus sayeth the LORD of Hosts concerning the prophets, "Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall. For from the prophets of Jerusalem is the sickness of hypocrisy come into all the land."

² And thou Bethlehem Ephrata, art little among the thousands of Judah: Out of thee shall come one, unto me, which shall be the governour in Israel: whose outgoing hath been from the beginning, and from everlasting.

² Abraham begat Isaac; Isaac begat Jacob; Jacob begat Judah and his brethren;

² Abraham begat Isaac; Isaac begat Jacob; Jacob begat Judah and his brethren; ³ Judah begat Perez and Zerah of Tamar; Perez begat Hezron; Hezron begat Ram; ⁴ Ram begat Amminadab; Amminadab begat Nahshon; Nahshon begat Salmon; ⁵ Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab; Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; Obed begat Jesse;

³ To him the porter openeth the door, and the sheep hear his voice; And he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.

²⁸ Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, whereof the holy ghost hath made you overseers: to rule the congregation of God, which he hath purchased with his blood. ²⁹ For I am sure of this: that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, which will not spare the flock. ³⁰ Moreover, of your own selves shall men arise speaking perverse things, to draw disciples after them. ³¹ Therefore awake and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one of you, both night and day with tears.

¹³ Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine. ¹⁴ Despise not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee through prophecy, and with laying on of the hands of an elder. ¹⁵ These things exercise, and give thyself unto them, that it may be seen how thou profitest in all things. ¹⁶ Take heed unto thyself and unto learning, and continue therein. For if thou shalt so do, thou shalt save thyself, and them that hear thee.

² Preach the word, be fervent; be it in season, or out of season. Improve, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

⁶ But he whose kindred is not counted among them, received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.

¹¹ Through faith Sarah also received strength to be with child, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful which had promised. ¹² And therefore sprang thereof one — and of one which was as good as dead — so many in multitude, as the stars of the sky, and as the sand of the sea shore which is innumerable.

⁹ After this I beheld, and lo a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and people, and tongues, stood before the seat, and before the lamb, clothed with long white garments, and palms in their hands, ¹⁰ and cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be ascribed to him that sitteth upon the seat of our God, and unto the lamb." ¹¹ And all the angels stood in the compass of the seat, and of the elders and of the four beasts, and fell before the seat on their faces, and worshipped God, ¹² saying, amen, "Blessing and glory, wisdom and thanks, and honour, and power and might, be unto our God, for evermore, amen." ¹³ And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, "What are these which are arrayed in long white garments, and whence came they?" ¹⁴ And I said unto him, "Lord, thou knowest."
