Genesis 1:1-31

1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now, the earth, had become waste and wild, and, darkness, was on the face of the roaring deep,––but, the Spirit of God, was brooding on the face of the waters.
3 And God said––Light, be. And light was. 4 And God saw the light, that it was, good,––and God divided, the light, from the, darkness; 5 and God called, the light, day, but, the darkness, called he, night. So it was evening––and it was morning, one day.
6 And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters,––and let it be a means of dividing, between waters and waters. 7 And God made the expanse, and it divided between the waters that were under the expanse and the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so. 8 And God called, the expanse, heavens. So it was evening––and it was morning, a, second day.
9 And God said––Let the waters under the heavens, be gathered together, into one place, and let the dry–ground appear. And it was so. 10 And God called, the dry–ground, land, but, the gathering together of the waters, called he, seas. And God saw that it was, good. 11 And God said––Let the land put–forth vegetation––herb yielding seed, fruit–tree, bearing fruit, after its kind, whose seed is within it on the land. And it was so. 12 And the land brought–forth vegetation––herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, whose seed is within it, after its kind. And God saw that it was, good. 13 So it was evening––and it was morning, a third day.
14 And God said––Let there be luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night,––and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years; 15 yea let them be for luminaries, in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so. 16 And God made the two great luminaries,––the greater luminary to rule the day, and the lesser luminary to rule the night, also the stars. 17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens,––to give light on the earth; 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was, good. 19 So it was evening––and it was morning, a fourth day.
20 And God said––Let the waters swarm [with] an abundance of living soul, and, birds, shall fly over the earth, over the face of the expanse of the heavens. 21 And God created the great sea–monsters,––and every living soul that moveth––[with] which the waters swarmed after their kind, and every winged bird––after its kind. And God saw that it was, good. 22 And God blessed them, saying,––Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let, the birds, multiply in the land. 23 So it was evening––and it was morning, a fifth day.
24 And God said––Let the land, bring forth, living soul, after its kind, tame–beast and creeping thing and wild–beast of the land, after its kind. And it was so. 25 And God made the wild–beast of the land, after its kind, and the tame–beast, after its kind, and every creeping thing of the ground, after its kind. And God saw that it was, good.
26 And God said––Let us make man in our image, after our likeness––and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens, and over the tame–beast––and over all the land, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth on the land. 27 And God created the man, in his own image, In the image of God, created he, him,––Male and female, created he, them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said to them––Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth, and subdue it,––and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth on the land.
29 And God said––Lo! I have given to you––every herb yielding seed which is on the face of all the land, and every tree wherein is the fruit of a tree, yielding seed,––to you, shall it be, for food; 30 and to every living thing of the land––and to every bird of the heavens, and to every thing that moveth on the land, wherein is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
31 And God saw every thing which he had made, and lo! it was, very good. So it was evening––and it was morning, the sixth day.

Exodus 18:13-27

13 Now it came to pass, on the morrow, that Moses sat, to judge the people,––and the people stood by Moses, from the morning, until the evening. 14 And, when Moses father–in–law saw all that, he, was doing for the people, he said––What is this thing which, thou, art doing for the people? Wherefore art, thou, sitting, alone, with, all the people, stationed by thee, from morning until evening? 15 And Moses said to his father–in–law,––Because the people come in unto me, to seek God: 16 When they have a matter, they come in unto me, then do I judge between a man and his neighbour,––and make known the statutes of God, and his laws. 17 Then said Moses’ father–in–law unto him,––Not good, is the thing that thou art doing. 18 Thou wilt get, quite worn out, both thou, and this people that is with thee,––for the thing is, too heavy for thee, thou canst not do it, alone. 19 Now, hearken thou to my voice––let me counsel thee, and may God be with thee: Be, thou, for, the people, in front of God, so shalt, thou, bring the matters unto God; 20 and shalt cause to shine upon them, the statutes and the laws,––and make known to them the way wherein they should go, and the work they should do. 21 Thou thyself, therefore, shalt look out, from among all the people––men of ability, reverers of God, men of fidelity, haters of extortion,––and place them over [them] as rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. 22 So shall they judge the people at any time, and it shall be, all the great matters, shall they bring in unto thee, but, all the small matters, shall, they themselves, judge,––so, lighten thou the burden for thyself, and let them bear it with thee. 23 If, this thing, thou wilt do, and God shall command thee, then shalt thou be able to endure,––yea, moreover, all this people, shall go in, unto their dwellings, contented. 24 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father–in–law, and did all that he had said; 25 and Moses chose men of ability out of all Israel, and set them to be heads over the people,––rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. 26 And they shall judge the people, at any time,––the hard matters, shall they bring in unto Moses, but, all the small matters, shall, they themselves, judge. 27 And Moses sent forth his father–in–law,––and he went his way by himself, unto his own land.

44 Wherefore, ye also, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are, not thinking, The Son of Man doth come. 45 Who then is the faithful and prudent servant, whom the master hath appointed over his household, to give them food in season? 46 Happy! that servant, whom his master, when he cometh, shall find so doing! 47 Verily, I say unto you––Over all his substance, will he appoint him. 48 But, if that wicked servant should say in his heart––My master, delayeth, 49 And begin to be striking his fellow–servants, and eating and drinking with the drunken, 50 The master of that servant, will have come, on a day when he is not expecting, and in an hour when he is not observing,–– 51 And will cut him asunder; and, his part, with the hypocrites, will appoint: There, shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth!
