|
001:001 | Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came
into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob. |
001:002 | Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, |
001:003 | Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin, |
001:004 | Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. |
001:005 | And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were
seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already. |
001:006 | And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that
generation. |
001:007 | And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was
filled with them. |
001:008 | Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not
Joseph. |
001:009 | And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the
children of Israel are more and mightier than we: |
001:010 | Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply,
and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join
also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of
the land. |
001:011 | Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them
with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom
and Raamses. |
001:012 | But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied
and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel. |
001:013 | And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with
rigour: |
001:014 | And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in
morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all
their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour. |
001:015 | And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which
the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: |
001:016 | And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew
women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill
him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. |
001:017 | But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt
commanded them, but saved the men children alive. |
001:018 | And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto
them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children
alive? |
001:019 | And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women
are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered
ere the midwives come in unto them. |
001:020 | Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people
multiplied, and waxed very mighty. |
001:021 | And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he
made them houses. |
001:022 | And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is
born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save
alive. |
002:001 | And there went a man of the
house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi. |
002:002 | And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when
she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three
months. |
002:003 | And when she could not longer hide him, she took
for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and
with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in
the flags by the river's brink. |
002:004 | And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would
be done to him. |
002:005 | And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash
herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the
river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she
sent her maid to fetch it. |
002:006 | And when she had opened it, she saw the child:
and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him,
and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children. |
002:007 | Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall
I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she
may nurse the child for thee? |
002:008 | And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the
maid went and called the child's mother. |
002:009 | And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this
child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy
wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it. |
002:010 | And the child grew, and she brought him unto
Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called
his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the
water. |
002:011 | And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was
grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on
their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew,
one of his brethren. |
002:012 | And he looked this way and that way, and when he
saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him
in the sand. |
002:013 | And when he went out the second day, behold, two
men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that
did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow? |
002:014 | And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge
over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the
Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is
known. |
002:015 | Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to
slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and
dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well. |
002:016 | Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and
they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water
their father's flock. |
002:017 | And the shepherds came and drove them away: but
Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. |
002:018 | And when they came to Reuel their father, he
said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day? |
002:019 | And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of
the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for
us, and watered the flock. |
002:020 | And he said unto his daughters, And where is he?
why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may
eat bread. |
002:021 | And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and
he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter. |
002:022 | And she bare him a son, and he called his name
Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange
land. |
002:023 | And it came to pass in process of time, that the
king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by
reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up
unto God by reason of the bondage. |
002:024 | And God heard their groaning, and God remembered
his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. |
002:025 | And God looked upon the children of Israel, and
God had respect unto them. |
003:001 | Now Moses kept the flock of
Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the
flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of
God, even to Horeb. |
003:002 | And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a
flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked,
and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not
consumed. |
003:003 | And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see
this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. |
003:004 | And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to
see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and
said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. |
003:005 | And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy
shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest
is holy ground. |
003:006 | Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the
God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And
Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. |
003:007 | And the LORD said, I have surely seen the
affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard
their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their
sorrows; |
003:008 | 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 land and a large, 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. |
003:009 | Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of
Israel is come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression
wherewith the Egyptians oppress them. |
003:010 | Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto
Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children
of Israel out of Egypt. |
003:011 | And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should
go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children
of Israel out of Egypt? |
003:012 | And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and
this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When
thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall
serve God upon this mountain. |
003:013 | And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto
the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of
your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to
me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? |
003:014 | And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he
said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM
hath sent me unto you. |
003:015 | And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou
say unto the children of Israel, the LORD God of your
fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God
of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever,
and this is my memorial unto all generations. |
003:016 | Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and
say unto them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of
Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying, I
have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you
in Egypt: |
003:017 | And I have said, I will bring you up out of the
affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the
Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk
and honey. |
003:018 | And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou
shalt come, thou and the elders of Israel, unto the king of
Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech
thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may
sacrifice to the LORD our God. |
003:019 | And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let
you go, no, not by a mighty hand. |
003:020 | And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt
with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof:
and after that he will let you go. |
003:021 | And I will give this people favour in the sight
of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye
go, ye shall not go empty. |
003:022 | But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour,
and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver,
and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon
your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the
Egyptians. |
|
004:001 | And Moses answered and said,
But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my
voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee. |
004:002 | And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine
hand? And he said, A rod. |
004:003 | And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast
it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled
from before it. |
004:004 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine
hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his hand,
and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand: |
004:005 | That they may believe that the LORD God of their
fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God
of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee. |
004:006 | And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now
thine hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his
bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous
as snow. |
004:007 | And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again.
And he put his hand into his bosom again; and plucked it out
of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again as his other
flesh. |
004:008 | And it shall come to pass, if they will not
believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first
sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign. |
004:009 | And it shall come to pass, if they will not
believe also these two signs, neither hearken unto thy
voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and
pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest
out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land. |
004:010 | And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not
eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken
unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow
tongue. |
004:011 | And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's
mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or
the blind? have not I the LORD? |
004:012 | Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth,
and teach thee what thou shalt say. |
004:013 | And he said, O my LORD, send, I pray thee, by the
hand of him whom thou wilt send. |
004:014 | And the anger of the LORD was kindled against
Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I
know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh
forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad
in his heart. |
004:015 | And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in
his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth,
and will teach you what ye shall do. |
004:016 | And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people:
and he shall be, even he shall be to thee instead of a
mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God. |
004:017 | And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand,
wherewith thou shalt do signs. |
004:018 | And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father
in law, and said unto him, Let me go, I pray thee, and
return unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see whether
they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace. |
004:019 | And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go,
return into Egypt: for all the men are dead which sought thy
life. |
004:020 | And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set
them upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and
Moses took the rod of God in his hand. |
004:021 | And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to
return into Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before
Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden
his heart, that he shall not let the people go. |
004:022 | And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the
LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn: |
004:023 | And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may
serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will
slay thy son, even thy firstborn. |
004:024 | And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that
the LORD met him, and sought to kill him. |
004:025 | Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the
foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said,
Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. |
004:026 | So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband
thou art, because of the circumcision. |
004:027 | And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the
wilderness to meet Moses. And he went, and met him in the
mount of God, and kissed him. |
004:028 | And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD
who had sent him, and all the signs which he had commanded
him. |
004:029 | And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together
all the elders of the children of Israel: |
004:030 | And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had
spoken unto Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the
people. |
004:031 | And the people believed: and when they heard that
the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had
looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads
and worshipped. |
|
005:001 | And afterward Moses and Aaron
went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel,
Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the
wilderness. |
005:002 | And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should
obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD,
neither will I let Israel go. |
005:003 | And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met
with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into
the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest he
fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword. |
005:004 | And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore
do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the people from their works? get
you unto your burdens. |
005:005 | And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land
now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens. |
005:006 | And Pharaoh commanded the same day the
taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying, |
005:007 | Ye shall no more give the people straw to make
brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for
themselves. |
005:008 | And the tale of the bricks, which they did make
heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish
ought thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cry, saying,
Let us go and sacrifice to our God. |
005:009 | Let there more work be laid upon the men, that
they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words. |
005:010 | And the taskmasters of the people went out, and
their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus
saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw. |
005:011 | Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet
not ought of your work shall be diminished. |
005:012 | So the people were scattered abroad throughout
all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw. |
005:013 | And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil
your works, your daily tasks, as when there was straw. |
005:014 | And the officers of the children of Israel, which
Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and
demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in
making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore? |
005:015 | Then the officers of the children of Israel came
and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus
with thy servants? |
005:016 | There is no straw given unto thy servants, and
they say to us, Make brick: and, behold, thy servants are
beaten; but the fault is in thine own people. |
005:017 | But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore
ye say, Let us go and do sacrifice to the LORD. |
005:018 | Go therefore now, and work; for there shall no
straw be given you, yet shall ye deliver the tale of bricks. |
005:019 | And the officers of the children of Israel did
see that they were in evil case, after it was said, Ye shall
not minish ought from your bricks of your daily task. |
005:020 | And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the
way, as they came forth from Pharaoh: |
005:021 | And they said unto them, The LORD look upon you,
and judge; because ye have made our savour to be abhorred in
the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put
a sword in their hand to slay us. |
005:022 | And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, LORD,
wherefore hast thou so evil entreated this people? why is it
that thou hast sent me? |
005:023 | For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name,
he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou
delivered thy people at all. |
|
006:001 | Then the LORD said unto Moses,
Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong
hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive
them out of his land. |
006:002 | And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am
the LORD: |
006:003 | And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto
Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH
was I not known to them. |
006:004 | And I have also established my covenant with
them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their
pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers. |
006:005 | And I have also heard the groaning of the
children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and
I have remembered my covenant. |
006:006 | Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am
the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of
the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and
I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great
judgments: |
006:007 | And I will take you to me for a people, and I
will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I am the LORD
your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of
the Egyptians. |
006:008 | And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning
the which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and
to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: I am the
LORD. |
006:009 | And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel:
but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and
for cruel bondage. |
006:010 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
006:011 | Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he
let the children of Israel go out of his land. |
006:012 | And Moses spake before the LORD, saying, Behold,
the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then
shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised lips? |
006:013 | And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, and
gave them a charge unto the children of Israel, and unto
Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out
of the land of Egypt. |
006:014 | These be the heads of their fathers' houses: The
sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel; Hanoch, and Pallu,
Hezron, and Carmi: these be the families of Reuben. |
006:015 | And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and Jamin, and
Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a
Canaanitish woman: these are the families of Simeon. |
006:016 | 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 an hundred
thirty and seven years. |
006:017 | The sons of Gershon; Libni, and Shimi, according
to their families. |
006:018 | And the sons of Kohath; Amram, and Izhar, and
Hebron, and Uzziel: and the years of the life of Kohath were
an hundred thirty and three years. |
006:019 | And the sons of Merari; Mahali and Mushi: these
are the families of Levi according to their generations. |
006:020 | And Amram took him Jochebed his father's sister
to wife; and she bare him Aaron and Moses: and the years of
the life of Amram were an hundred and thirty and seven
years. |
006:021 | And the sons of Izhar; Korah, and Nepheg, and
Zichri. |
006:022 | And the sons of Uzziel; Mishael, and Elzaphan,
and Zithri. |
006:023 | And Aaron took him Elisheba, daughter of
Amminadab, sister of Naashon, to wife; and she bare him
Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. |
006:024 | And the sons of Korah; Assir, and Elkanah, and
Abiasaph: these are the families of the Korhites. |
006:025 | And Eleazar Aaron's son took him one of the
daughters of Putiel to wife; and she bare him Phinehas:
these are the heads of the fathers of the Levites according
to their families. |
006:026 | These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom the LORD
said, Bring out the children of Israel from the land of
Egypt according to their armies. |
006:027 | These are they which spake to Pharaoh king of
Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt: these
are that Moses and Aaron. |
006:028 | And it came to pass on the day when the LORD
spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt, |
006:029 | That the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, I am the
LORD: speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say
unto thee. |
006:030 | And Moses said before the LORD, Behold, I am of
uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me? |
|
007:001 | And the LORD said unto Moses,
See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother
shall be thy prophet. |
007:002 | Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and
Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the
children of Israel out of his land. |
007:003 | And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply
my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt. |
007:004 | But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I
may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and
my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt
by great judgments. |
007:005 | And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD,
when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the
children of Israel from among them. |
007:006 | And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded
them, so did they. |
007:007 | And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron
fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh. |
007:008 | And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron,
saying, |
007:009 | When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a
miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy
rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a
serpent. |
007:010 | And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and
they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down
his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it
became a serpent. |
007:011 | Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the
sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like
manner with their enchantments. |
007:012 | For they cast down every man his rod, and they
became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. |
007:013 | And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he
hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said. |
007:014 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is
hardened, he refuseth to let the people go. |
007:015 | Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he
goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the
river's brink against he come; and the rod which was turned
to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand. |
007:016 | And thou shalt say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go,
that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold,
hitherto thou wouldest not hear. |
007:017 | Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that
I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in
mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they
shall be turned to blood. |
007:018 | And the fish that is in the river shall die, and
the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to
drink of the water of the river. |
007:019 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of
Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their
ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may
become blood; and that there may be blood throughout all the
land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of
stone. |
007:020 | And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD
commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters
that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the
sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the
river were turned to blood. |
007:021 | And the fish that was in the river died; and the
river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water
of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of
Egypt. |
007:022 | And the magicians of Egypt did so with their
enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did
he hearken unto them; as the LORD had said. |
007:023 | And Pharaoh turned and went into his house,
neither did he set his heart to this also. |
007:024 | And all the Egyptians digged round about the
river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the
water of the river. |
007:025 | And seven days were fulfilled, after that the
LORD had smitten the river. |
|
008:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my
people go, that they may serve me. |
008:002 | And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will
smite all thy borders with frogs: |
008:003 | And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly,
which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy
bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy
servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and
into thy kneadingtroughs: |
008:004 | And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and
upon thy people, and upon all thy servants. |
008:005 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over
the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up
upon the land of Egypt. |
008:006 | And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters
of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of
Egypt. |
008:007 | And the magicians did so with their enchantments,
and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt. |
008:008 | Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and
said, Intreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from
me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that
they may do sacrifice unto the LORD. |
008:009 | And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when
shall I intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy
people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, that
they may remain in the river only? |
008:010 | And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it
according to thy word: that thou mayest know that there is
none like unto the LORD our God. |
008:011 | And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from
thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they
shall remain in the river only. |
008:012 | And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and
Moses cried unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had
brought against Pharaoh. |
008:013 | And the LORD did according to the word of Moses;
and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages,
and out of the fields. |
008:014 | And they gathered them together upon heaps: and
the land stank. |
008:015 | But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he
hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD
had said. |
008:016 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it
may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt. |
008:017 | And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand
with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became
lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became
lice throughout all the land of Egypt. |
008:018 | And the magicians did so with their enchantments
to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice
upon man, and upon beast. |
008:019 | Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the
finger of God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he
hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said. |
008:020 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in
the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth
to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my
people go, that they may serve me. |
008:021 | Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold,
I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy
servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the
houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies,
and also the ground whereon they are. |
008:022 | And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen,
in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be
there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the LORD in the
midst of the earth. |
008:023 | And I will put a division between my people and
thy people: to morrow shall this sign be. |
008:024 | And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous
swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his
servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land
was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies. |
008:025 | And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and
said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land. |
008:026 | And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we
shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD
our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the
Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us? |
008:027 | We will go three days' journey into the
wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall
command us. |
008:028 | And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may
sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye
shall not go very far away: intreat for me. |
008:029 | And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I
will intreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart
from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to
morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not
letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD. |
008:030 | And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated
the LORD. |
008:031 | And the LORD did according to the word of Moses;
and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his
servants, and from his people; there remained not one. |
008:032 | And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also,
neither would he let the people go. |
|
009:001 | Then the LORD said unto Moses,
Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the LORD God of the
Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me. |
009:002 | For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold
them still, |
009:003 | Behold, the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle
which is in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon
the camels, upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: there shall
be a very grievous murrain. |
009:004 | And the LORD shall sever between the cattle of
Israel and the cattle of Egypt: and there shall nothing die
of all that is the children's of Israel. |
009:005 | And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To
morrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land. |
009:006 | And the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and
all the cattle of Egypt died: but of the cattle of the
children of Israel died not one. |
009:007 | And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not one
of the cattle of the Israelites dead. And the heart of
Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go. |
009:008 | And the LORD said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take
to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses
sprinkle it toward the heaven in the sight of Pharaoh. |
009:009 | And it shall become small dust in all the land of
Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon
man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt. |
009:010 | And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood
before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven; and
it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and
upon beast. |
009:011 | And the magicians could not stand before Moses
because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians,
and upon all the Egyptians. |
009:012 | And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and
he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto
Moses. |
009:013 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in
the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him,
Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go,
that they may serve me. |
009:014 | For I will at this time send all my plagues upon
thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people;
that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the
earth. |
009:015 | For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may
smite thee and thy people with pestilence; and thou shalt be
cut off from the earth. |
009:016 | And in very deed for this cause have I raised
thee up, for to shew in thee my power; and that my name may
be declared throughout all the earth. |
009:017 | As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people,
that thou wilt not let them go? |
009:018 | Behold, to morrow about this time I will cause it
to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt
since the foundation thereof even until now. |
009:019 | Send therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and
all that thou hast in the field; for upon every man and
beast which shall be found in the field, and shall not be
brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they
shall die. |
009:020 | He that feared the word of the LORD among the
servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee
into the houses: |
009:021 | And he that regarded not the word of the LORD
left his servants and his cattle in the field. |
009:022 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth thine
hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land
of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb of
the field, throughout the land of Egypt. |
009:023 | And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven:
and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along
upon the ground; and the LORD rained hail upon the land of
Egypt. |
009:024 | So there was hail, and fire mingled with the
hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all
the land of Egypt since it became a nation. |
009:025 | And the hail smote throughout all the land of
Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the
hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every tree of
the field. |
009:026 | Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of
Israel were, was there no hail. |
009:027 | And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron,
and said unto them, I have sinned this time: the LORD is
righteous, and I and my people are wicked. |
009:028 | Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be
no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go,
and ye shall stay no longer. |
009:029 | And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out
of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD;
and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more
hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the
LORD's. |
009:030 | But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye
will not yet fear the LORD God. |
009:031 | And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the
barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled. |
009:032 | But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for
they were not grown up. |
009:033 | And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and
spread abroad his hands unto the LORD: and the thunders and
hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the earth. |
009:034 | And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail
and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and
hardened his heart, he and his servants. |
009:035 | And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither
would he let the children of Israel go; as the LORD had
spoken by Moses. |
|
010:001 | And the LORD said unto Moses,
Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart
of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him: |
010:002 | And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son,
and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt,
and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know
how that I am the LORD. |
010:003 | And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and
said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, How
long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my
people go, that they may serve me. |
010:004 | Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold,
to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast: |
010:005 | And they shall cover the face of the earth, that
one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the
residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you
from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for
you out of the field: |
010:006 | And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of
all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which
neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen,
since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day.
And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh. |
010:007 | And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long
shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they
may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet that
Egypt is destroyed? |
010:008 | And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto
Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your God:
but who are they that shall go? |
010:009 | And Moses said, We will go with our young and
with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our
flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a
feast unto the LORD. |
010:010 | And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with
you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it;
for evil is before you. |
010:011 | Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the
LORD; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from
Pharaoh's presence. |
010:012 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may
come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the
land, even all that the hail hath left. |
010:013 | And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land
of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land
all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning,
the east wind brought the locusts. |
010:014 | And the locust went up over all the land of
Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous
were they; before them there were no such locusts as they,
neither after them shall be such. |
010:015 | For they covered the face of the whole earth, so
that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of
the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had
left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees,
or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt. |
010:016 | Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste;
and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and
against you. |
010:017 | Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only
this once, and intreat the LORD your God, that he may take
away from me this death only. |
010:018 | And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the
LORD. |
010:019 | And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind,
which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea;
there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt. |
010:020 | But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he
would not let the children of Israel go. |
010:021 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land
of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. |
010:022 | And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven;
and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt
three days: |
010:023 | They saw not one another, neither rose any from
his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had
light in their dwellings. |
010:024 | And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye,
serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be
stayed: let your little ones also go with you. |
010:025 | And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices
and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our
God. |
010:026 | Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not
an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve
the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve
the LORD, until we come thither. |
010:027 | But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he
would not let them go. |
010:028 | And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take
heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou
seest my face thou shalt die. |
010:029 | And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see
thy face again no more. |
|
011:001 | And the LORD said unto Moses,
Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt;
afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go,
he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether. |
011:002 | Speak now in the ears of the people, and let
every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her
neighbour, jewels of silver and jewels of gold. |
011:003 | And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight
of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in
the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and
in the sight of the people. |
011:004 | And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About
midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: |
011:005 | And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall
die, from the first born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his
throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is
behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts. |
011:006 | And there shall be a great cry throughout all the
land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be
like it any more. |
011:007 | But against any of the children of Israel shall
not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may
know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the
Egyptians and Israel. |
011:008 | And all these thy servants shall come down unto
me, and bow down themselves unto me, saying, Get thee out,
and all the people that follow thee: and after that I will
go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger. |
011:009 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not
hearken unto you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the
land of Egypt. |
011:010 | And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before
Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he
would not let the children of Israel go out of his land. |
|
012:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses
and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, |
012:002 | This month shall be unto you the beginning of
months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. |
012:003 | Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel,
saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to
them every man a lamb, according to the house of their
fathers, a lamb for an house: |
012:004 | And if the household be too little for the lamb,
let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it
according to the number of the souls; every man according to
his eating shall make your count for the lamb. |
012:005 | Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the
first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the
goats: |
012:006 | And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day
of the same month: and the whole assembly of the
congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. |
012:007 | And they shall take of the blood, and strike it
on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the
houses, wherein they shall eat it. |
012:008 | And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast
with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they
shall eat it. |
012:009 | Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water,
but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the
purtenance thereof. |
012:010 | And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the
morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye
shall burn with fire. |
012:011 | And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded,
your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye
shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD's passover. |
012:012 | For I will pass through the land of Egypt this
night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of
Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt
I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. |
012:013 | And the blood shall be to you for a token upon
the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will
pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to
destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. |
012:014 | And this day shall be unto you for a memorial;
and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your
generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for
ever. |
012:015 | Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even
the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses:
for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until
the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel. |
012:016 | And in the first day there shall be an holy
convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy
convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them,
save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of
you. |
012:017 | And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened
bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies
out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this
day in your generations by an ordinance for ever. |
012:018 | In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the
month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one
and twentieth day of the month at even. |
012:019 | Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your
houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even
that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel,
whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. |
012:020 | Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your
habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread. |
012:021 | Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel,
and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according
to your families, and kill the passover. |
012:022 | And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it
in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and
the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and
none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the
morning. |
012:023 | For the LORD will pass through to smite the
Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and
on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and
will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to
smite you. |
012:024 | And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance
to thee and to thy sons for ever. |
012:025 | And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the
land which the LORD will give you, according as he hath
promised, that ye shall keep this service. |
012:026 | And it shall come to pass, when your children
shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? |
012:027 | That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the
LORD's passover, who passed over the houses of the children
of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and
delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and
worshipped. |
012:028 | And the children of Israel went away, and did as
the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. |
012:029 | And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD
smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the
firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the
firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all
the firstborn of cattle. |
012:030 | And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his
servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry
in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one
dead. |
012:031 | And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and
said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both
ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye
have said. |
012:032 | Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have
said, and be gone; and bless me also. |
012:033 | And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people,
that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they
said, We be all dead men. |
012:034 | And the people took their dough before it was
leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their
clothes upon their shoulders. |
012:035 | And the children of Israel did according to the
word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of
silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: |
012:036 | And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight
of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as
they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians. |
012:037 | And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses
to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were
men, beside children. |
012:038 | And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and
flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. |
012:039 | And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough
which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not
leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could
not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any
victual. |
012:040 | Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who
dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. |
012:041 | And it came to pass at the end of the four
hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to
pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land
of Egypt. |
012:042 | It is a night to be much observed unto the LORD
for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that
night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of
Israel in their generations. |
012:043 | And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is
the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger eat
thereof: |
012:044 | But every man's servant that is bought for money,
when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof. |
012:045 | A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat
thereof. |
012:046 | In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not
carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house;
neither shall ye break a bone thereof. |
012:047 | All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. |
012:048 | And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and
will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be
circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he
shall be as one that is born in the land: for no
uncircumcised person shall eat thereof. |
012:049 | One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and
unto the stranger that sojourneth among you. |
012:050 | Thus did all the children of Israel; as the LORD
commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. |
012:051 | And it came to pass the selfsame day, that the
LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of
Egypt by their armies. |
|
013:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying, |
013:002 | Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever
openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man
and of beast: it is mine. |
013:003 | And Moses said unto the people, Remember this
day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of
bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out
from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. |
013:004 | This day came ye out in the month Abib. |
013:005 | And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee
into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the
Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he sware
unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and
honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month. |
013:006 | Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and
in the seventh day shall be a feast to the LORD. |
013:007 | Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and
there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither
shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters. |
013:008 | And thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying,
This is done because of that which the LORD did unto me when
I came forth out of Egypt. |
013:009 | And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine
hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD's
law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the
LORD brought thee out of Egypt. |
013:010 | Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his
season from year to year. |
013:011 | And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee
into the land of the Canaanites, as he sware unto thee and
to thy fathers, and shall give it thee, |
013:012 | That thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that
openeth the matrix, and every firstling that cometh of a
beast which thou hast; the males shall be the LORD's. |
013:013 | And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem
with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt
break his neck: and all the firstborn of man among thy
children shalt thou redeem. |
013:014 | And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time
to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him,
By strength of hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from
the house of bondage: |
013:015 | And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly
let us go, that the LORD slew all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of
beast: therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth
the matrix, being males; but all the firstborn of my
children I redeem. |
013:016 | And it shall be for a token upon thine hand, and
for frontlets between thine eyes: for by strength of hand
the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt. |
013:017 | And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the
people go, that God led them not through the way of the land
of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said,
Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and
they return to Egypt: |
013:018 | But God led the people about, through the way of
the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel
went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt. |
013:019 | And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for
he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God
will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away
hence with you. |
013:020 | And they took their journey from Succoth, and
encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness. |
013:021 | And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar
of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar
of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: |
013:022 | He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day,
nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people. |
|
014:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying, |
014:002 | Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn
and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea,
over against Baalzephon: before it shall ye encamp by the
sea. |
014:003 | For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel,
They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut
them in. |
014:004 | And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall
follow after them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and
upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the
LORD. And they did so. |
014:005 | And it was told the king of Egypt that the people
fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was
turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done
this, that we have let Israel go from serving us? |
014:006 | And he made ready his chariot, and took his
people with him: |
014:007 | And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all
the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them. |
014:008 | And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king
of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and
the children of Israel went out with an high hand. |
014:009 | But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the
horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his
army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside
Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon. |
014:010 | And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of
Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians
marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the
children of Israel cried out unto the LORD. |
014:011 | And they said unto Moses, Because there were no
graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the
wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry
us forth out of Egypt? |
014:012 | Is not this the word that we did tell thee in
Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the
Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the
Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness. |
014:013 | And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not,
stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he
will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen
to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. |
014:014 | The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold
your peace. |
014:015 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest
thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they
go forward: |
014:016 | But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine
hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel
shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. |
014:017 | And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the
Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me
honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his
chariots, and upon his horsemen. |
014:018 | And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD,
when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his
chariots, and upon his horsemen. |
014:019 | And the angel of God, which went before the camp
of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of
the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind
them: |
014:020 | And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and
the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them,
but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came
not near the other all the night. |
014:021 | And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea;
and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind
all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters
were divided. |
014:022 | And the children of Israel went into the midst of
the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto
them on their right hand, and on their left. |
014:023 | And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them
to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's horses, his
chariots, and his horsemen. |
014:024 | And it came to pass, that in the morning watch
the LORD looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the
pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of
the Egyptians, |
014:025 | And took off their chariot wheels, that they
drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee
from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them
against the Egyptians. |
014:026 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the
Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen. |
014:027 | And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea,
and the sea returned to his strength when the morning
appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD
overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. |
014:028 | And the waters returned, and covered the
chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that
came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as
one of them. |
014:029 | But the children of Israel walked upon dry land
in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto
them on their right hand, and on their left. |
014:030 | Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the
hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead
upon the sea shore. |
014:031 | And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did
upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and
believed the LORD, and his servant Moses. |
|
015:001 | Then sang Moses and the
children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I
will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the
horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. |
015:002 | The LORD is my strength and song, and he is
become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an
habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him. |
015:003 | The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. |
015:004 | Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into
the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red
sea. |
015:005 | The depths have covered them: they sank into the
bottom as a stone. |
015:006 | Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in
power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the
enemy. |
015:007 | And in the greatness of thine excellency thou
hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest
forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble. |
015:008 | And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters
were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap,
and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. |
015:009 | The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I
will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them;
I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. |
015:010 | Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered
them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. |
015:011 | Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods?
who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises,
doing wonders? |
015:012 | Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth
swallowed them. |
015:013 | Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which
thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength
unto thy holy habitation. |
015:014 | The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow
shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. |
015:015 | Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the
mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all
the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away. |
015:016 | Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the
greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone;
till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass
over, which thou hast purchased. |
015:017 | Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the
mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which
thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O
LORD, which thy hands have established. |
015:018 | The LORD shall reign for ever and ever. |
015:019 | For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his
chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD
brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the
children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. |
015:020 | And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron,
took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after
her with timbrels and with dances. |
015:021 | And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD,
for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider
hath he thrown into the sea. |
015:022 | So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and
they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went
three days in the wilderness, and found no water. |
015:023 | And when they came to Marah, they could not drink
of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the
name of it was called Marah. |
015:024 | And the people murmured against Moses, saying,
What shall we drink? |
015:025 | And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed
him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the
waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and
an ordinance, and there he proved them, |
015:026 | And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the
voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right
in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and
keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases
upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am
the LORD that healeth thee. |
015:027 | And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of
water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped
there by the waters. |
|
016:001 | And they took their journey
from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel
came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and
Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their
departing out of the land of Egypt. |
016:002 | And the whole congregation of the children of
Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness: |
016:003 | And the children of Israel said unto them, Would
to God we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of
Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat
bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this
wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger. |
016:004 | Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will
rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out
and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them,
whether they will walk in my law, or no. |
016:005 | And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day
they shall prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be
twice as much as they gather daily. |
016:006 | And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of
Israel, At even, then ye shall know that the LORD hath
brought you out from the land of Egypt: |
016:007 | And in the morning, then ye shall see the glory
of the LORD; for that he heareth your murmurings against the
LORD: and what are we, that ye murmur against us? |
016:008 | And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD
shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the
morning bread to the full; for that the LORD heareth your
murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we?
your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD. |
016:009 | And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the
congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the
LORD: for he hath heard your murmurings. |
016:010 | And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the
whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they
looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the
LORD appeared in the cloud. |
016:011 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
016:012 | I have heard the murmurings of the children of
Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh,
and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye
shall know that I am the LORD your God. |
016:013 | And it came to pass, that at even the quails came
up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay
round about the host. |
016:014 | And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold,
upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round
thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground. |
016:015 | And when the children of Israel saw it, they said
one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was.
And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD
hath given you to eat. |
016:016 | This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded,
Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for
every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye
every man for them which are in his tents. |
016:017 | And the children of Israel did so, and gathered,
some more, some less. |
016:018 | And when they did mete it with an omer, he that
gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little
had no lack; they gathered every man according to his
eating. |
016:019 | And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the
morning. |
016:020 | Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses;
but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred
worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them. |
016:021 | And they gathered it every morning, every man
according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it
melted. |
016:022 | And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they
gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all
the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses. |
016:023 | And he said unto them, This is that which the
LORD hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath
unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and
seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over
lay up for you to be kept until the morning. |
016:024 | And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses
bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm
therein. |
016:025 | And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a
sabbath unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the
field. |
016:026 | Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh
day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none. |
016:027 | And it came to pass, that there went out some of
the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found
none. |
016:028 | And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye
to keep my commandments and my laws? |
016:029 | See, for that the LORD hath given you the
sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread
of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go
out of his place on the seventh day. |
016:030 | So the people rested on the seventh day. |
016:031 | And the house of Israel called the name thereof
Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste
of it was like wafers made with honey. |
016:032 | And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD
commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your
generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have
fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the
land of Egypt. |
016:033 | And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an
omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD,
to be kept for your generations. |
016:034 | As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up
before the Testimony, to be kept. |
016:035 | And the children of Israel did eat manna forty
years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat
manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of
Canaan. |
016:036 | Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah. |
|
017:001 | And all the congregation of the children of Israel
journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys,
according to the commandment of the LORD, and pitched in
Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink. |
017:002 | Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and
said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto
them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD? |
017:003 | And the people thirsted there for water; and the
people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this
that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and
our children and our cattle with thirst? |
017:004 | And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall
I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me. |
017:005 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the
people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy
rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand,
and go. |
017:006 | Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the
rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there
shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And
Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. |
017:007 | And he called the name of the place Massah, and
Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel,
and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among
us, or not? |
017:008 | Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in
Rephidim. |
017:009 | And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men,
and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the
top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand. |
017:010 | So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and
fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the
top of the hill. |
017:011 | And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand,
that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek
prevailed. |
017:012 | But Moses hands were heavy; and they took a
stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron
and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and
the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until
the going down of the sun. |
017:013 | And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with
the edge of the sword. |
017:014 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a
memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua:
for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from
under heaven. |
017:015 | And Moses built an altar, and called the name of
it Jehovahnissi: |
017:016 | For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the
LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to
generation. |
|
018:001 | When Jethro, the priest of
Midian, Moses' father in law, heard of all that God had done for
Moses, and for Israel his people, and that the LORD had brought
Israel out of Egypt; |
018:002 | Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah,
Moses' wife, after he had sent her back, |
018:003 | And her two sons; of which the name of the one
was Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien in a strange
land: |
018:004 | And the name of the other was Eliezer; for the
God of my father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me
from the sword of Pharaoh: |
018:005 | And Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his
sons and his wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he
encamped at the mount of God: |
018:006 | And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law
Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons
with her. |
018:007 | And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and
did obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other of
their welfare; and they came into the tent. |
018:008 | And Moses told his father in law all that the
LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's
sake, and all the travail that had come upon them by the
way, and how the LORD delivered them. |
018:009 | And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which
the LORD had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of
the hand of the Egyptians. |
018:010 | And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath
delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of
the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from
under the hand of the Egyptians. |
018:011 | Now I know that the LORD is greater than all
gods: for in the thing wherein they dealt proudly he was
above them. |
018:012 | And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt
offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the
elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in law
before God. |
018:013 | And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat
to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the
morning unto the evening. |
018:014 | And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did
to the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest
to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the
people stand by thee from morning unto even? |
018:015 | And Moses said unto his father in law, Because
the people come unto me to enquire of God: |
018:016 | When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I
judge between one and another, and I do make them know the
statutes of God, and his laws. |
018:017 | And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing
that thou doest is not good. |
018:018 | Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this
people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for
thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone. |
018:019 | Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee
counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people
to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God: |
018:020 | And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws,
and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the
work that they must do. |
018:021 | Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people
able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating
covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of
thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and
rulers of tens: |
018:022 | And let them judge the people at all seasons: and
it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto
thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it
be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with
thee. |
018:023 | If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee
so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people
shall also go to their place in peace. |
018:024 | So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in
law, and did all that he had said. |
018:025 | And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and
made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers
of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. |
018:026 | And they judged the people at all seasons: the
hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter
they judged themselves. |
018:027 | And Moses let his father in law depart; and he
went his way into his own land. |
|
019:001 | In the third month, when the
children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the
same day came they into the wilderness of Sinai. |
019:002 | For they were departed from Rephidim, and were
come to the desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the
wilderness; and there Israel camped before the mount. |
019:003 | And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called
unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to
the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; |
019:004 | Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and
how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto
myself. |
019:005 | Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed,
and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure
unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: |
019:006 | And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and
an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak
unto the children of Israel. |
019:007 | And Moses came and called for the elders of the
people, and laid before their faces all these words which
the LORD commanded him. |
019:008 | And all the people answered together, and said,
All that the LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned
the words of the people unto the LORD. |
019:009 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto
thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak
with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the
words of the people unto the LORD. |
019:010 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people,
and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash
their clothes, |
019:011 | And be ready against the third day: for the third
day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people
upon mount Sinai. |
019:012 | And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round
about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up
into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever
toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death: |
019:013 | There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall
surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or
man, it shall not live: when the trumpet soundeth long, they
shall come up to the mount. |
019:014 | And Moses went down from the mount unto the
people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their
clothes. |
019:015 | And he said unto the people, Be ready against the
third day: come not at your wives. |
019:016 | And it came to pass on the third day in the
morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a
thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet
exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp
trembled. |
019:017 | And Moses brought forth the people out of the
camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of
the mount. |
019:018 | And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke,
because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke
thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole
mount quaked greatly. |
019:019 | And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long,
and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered
him by a voice. |
019:020 | And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the
top of the mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the top of
the mount; and Moses went up. |
019:021 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge the
people, lest they break through unto the LORD to gaze, and
many of them perish. |
019:022 | And let the priests also, which come near to the
LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon
them. |
019:023 | And Moses said unto the LORD, The people cannot
come up to mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us, saying, Set
bounds about the mount, and sanctify it. |
019:024 | And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down,
and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let
not the priests and the people break through to come up unto
the LORD, lest he break forth upon them. |
019:025 | So Moses went down unto the people, and spake
unto them. |
|
020:001 | And God spake all these words,
saying, |
020:002 | I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee
out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. |
020:003 | Thou shalt have no other gods before me. |
020:004 | Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or
that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under
the earth. |
020:005 | Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor
serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto
the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; |
020:006 | And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that
love me, and keep my commandments. |
020:007 | Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God
in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that
taketh his name in vain. |
020:008 | Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. |
020:009 | Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: |
020:010 | But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD
thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy
son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant,
nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: |
020:011 | For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh
day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and
hallowed it. |
020:012 | Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days
may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth
thee. |
020:013 | Thou shalt not kill. |
020:014 | Thou shalt not commit adultery. |
020:015 | Thou shalt not steal. |
020:016 | Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy
neighbour. |
020:017 | Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou
shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant,
nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing
that is thy neighbour's. |
020:018 | And all the people saw the thunderings, and the
lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain
smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood
afar off. |
020:019 | And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and
we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die. |
020:020 | And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God
is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your
faces, that ye sin not. |
020:021 | And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew
near unto the thick darkness where God was. |
020:022 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say
unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked
with you from heaven. |
020:023 | Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither
shall ye make unto you gods of gold. |
020:024 | An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and
shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace
offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I
record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee. |
020:025 | And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou
shalt not build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy
tool upon it, thou hast polluted it. |
020:026 | Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine
altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon. |
|
021:001 | Now these are the judgments
which thou shalt set before them. |
021:002 | If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall
serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. |
021:003 | If he came in by himself, he shall go out by
himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with
him. |
021:004 | If his master have given him a wife, and she have
born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall
be her master's, and he shall go out by himself. |
021:005 | And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my
master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: |
021:006 | Then his master shall bring him unto the judges;
he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post;
and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and
he shall serve him for ever. |
021:007 | And if a man sell his daughter to be a
maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do. |
021:008 | If she please not her master, who hath betrothed
her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell
her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he
hath dealt deceitfully with her. |
021:009 | And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he
shall deal with her after the manner of daughters. |
021:010 | If he take him another wife; her food, her
raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish. |
021:011 | And if he do not these three unto her, then shall
she go out free without money. |
021:012 | He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be
surely put to death. |
021:013 | And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver him
into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he
shall flee. |
021:014 | But if a man come presumptuously upon his
neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from
mine altar, that he may die. |
021:015 | And he that smiteth his father, or his mother,
shall be surely put to death. |
021:016 | And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or
if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death. |
021:017 | And he that curseth his father, or his mother,
shall surely be put to death. |
021:018 | And if men strive together, and one smite another
with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth
his bed: |
021:019 | If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff,
then shall he that smote him be quit: only he shall pay for
the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly
healed. |
021:020 | And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with
a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely
punished. |
021:021 | Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he
shall not be punished: for he is his money. |
021:022 | If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so
that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow:
he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's
husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges
determine. |
021:023 | And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give
life for life, |
021:024 | Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot
for foot, |
021:025 | Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for
stripe. |
021:026 | And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the
eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free
for his eye's sake. |
021:027 | And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or
his maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his
tooth's sake. |
021:028 | If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die:
then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not
be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit. |
021:029 | But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in
time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he
hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a
woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be
put to death. |
021:030 | If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he
shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid
upon him. |
021:031 | Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a
daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto
him. |
021:032 | If the ox shall push a manservant or a
maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels
of silver, and the ox shall be stoned. |
021:033 | And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall
dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall
therein; |
021:034 | The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give
money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be
his. |
021:035 | And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die;
then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of
it; and the dead ox also they shall divide. |
021:036 | Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push
in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall
surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own. |
|
022:001 | If a man shall steal an ox, or
a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for
an ox, and four sheep for a sheep. |
022:002 | If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten
that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him. |
022:003 | If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be
blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if
he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft. |
022:004 | If the theft be certainly found in his hand
alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore
double. |
022:005 | If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be
eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another
man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best
of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution. |
022:006 | If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that
the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be
consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely
make restitution. |
022:007 | If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money
or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house;
if the thief be found, let him pay double. |
022:008 | If the thief be not found, then the master of the
house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he
have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods. |
022:009 | For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox,
for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost
thing which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both
parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges
shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour. |
022:010 | If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an
ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be
hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it: |
022:011 | Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them
both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's
goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he
shall not make it good. |
022:012 | And if it be stolen from him, he shall make
restitution unto the owner thereof. |
022:013 | If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it
for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn. |
022:014 | And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and
it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he
shall surely make it good. |
022:015 | But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not
make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire. |
022:016 | And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed,
and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife. |
022:017 | If her father utterly refuse to give her unto
him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins. |
022:018 | Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. |
022:019 | Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put
to death. |
022:020 | He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the
LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed. |
022:021 | Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress
him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. |
022:022 | Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless
child. |
022:023 | If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at
all unto me, I will surely hear their cry; |
022:024 | And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you
with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your
children fatherless. |
022:025 | If thou lend money to any of my people that is
poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither
shalt thou lay upon him usury. |
022:026 | If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to
pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth
down: |
022:027 | For that is his covering only, it is his raiment
for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to
pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am
gracious. |
022:028 | Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the
ruler of thy people. |
022:029 | Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy
ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons
shalt thou give unto me. |
022:030 | Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with
thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the
eighth day thou shalt give it me. |
022:031 | And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall
ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye
shall cast it to the dogs. |
|
023:001 | Thou shalt not raise a false
report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous
witness. |
023:002 | Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil;
neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to
wrest judgment: |
023:003 | Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his
cause. |
023:004 | If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going
astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. |
023:005 | If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying
under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou
shalt surely help with him. |
023:006 | Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in
his cause. |
023:007 | Keep thee far from a false matter; and the
innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify
the wicked. |
023:008 | And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift
blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the
righteous. |
023:009 | Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye
know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in
the land of Egypt. |
023:010 | And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt
gather in the fruits thereof: |
023:011 | But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and
lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what
they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner
thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard. |
023:012 | Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the
seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may
rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be
refreshed. |
023:013 | And in all things that I have said unto you be
circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods,
neither let it be heard out of thy mouth. |
023:014 | Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in
the year. |
023:015 | Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread:
(thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded
thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it
thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me
empty:) |
023:016 | And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy
labours, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of
ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast
gathered in thy labours out of the field. |
023:017 | Three items in the year all thy males shall
appear before the LORD God. |
023:018 | Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice
remain until the morning. |
023:019 | The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou
shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt
not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. |
023:020 | Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee
in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have
prepared. |
023:021 | Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him
not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name
is in him. |
023:022 | But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do
all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine
enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. |
023:023 | For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring
thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the
Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the
Jebusites: and I will cut them off. |
023:024 | Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve
them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly
overthrow them, and quite break down their images. |
023:025 | And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he
shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take
sickness away from the midst of thee. |
023:026 | There shall nothing cast their young, nor be
barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil. |
023:027 | I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy
all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all
thine enemies turn their backs unto thee. |
023:028 | And I will send hornets before thee, which shall
drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from
before thee. |
023:029 | I will not drive them out from before thee in one
year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the
field multiply against thee. |
023:030 | By little and little I will drive them out from
before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land. |
023:031 | And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even
unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert unto
the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land
into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee. |
023:032 | Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with
their gods. |
023:033 | They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make
thee sin against me: for if thou serve their gods, it will
surely be a snare unto thee. |
|
024:001 | And he said unto Moses, Come
up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy
of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off. |
024:002 | And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but
they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up
with him. |
024:003 | And Moses came and told the people all the words
of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people
answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the
LORD hath said will we do. |
024:004 | And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and
rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the
hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of
Israel. |
024:005 | And he sent young men of the children of Israel,
which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace
offerings of oxen unto the LORD. |
024:006 | And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in
basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. |
024:007 | And he took the book of the covenant, and read in
the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD
hath said will we do, and be obedient. |
024:008 | And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the
people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which
the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. |
024:009 | Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu,
and seventy of the elders of Israel: |
024:010 | And they saw the God of Israel: and there was
under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone,
and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. |
024:011 | And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he
laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink. |
024:012 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into
the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of
stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written;
that thou mayest teach them. |
024:013 | And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and
Moses went up into the mount of God. |
024:014 | And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for
us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur
are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him
come unto them. |
024:015 | And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud
covered the mount. |
024:016 | And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai,
and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he
called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud. |
024:017 | And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like
devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the
children of Israel. |
024:018 | And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and
gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty
days and forty nights. |
|
025:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying, |
025:002 | Speak unto the children of Israel, that they
bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly
with his heart ye shall take my offering. |
025:003 | And this is the offering which ye shall take of
them; gold, and silver, and brass, |
025:004 | And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats' hair, |
025:005 | And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and
shittim wood, |
025:006 | Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and
for sweet incense, |
025:007 | Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod,
and in the breastplate. |
025:008 | And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may
dwell among them. |
025:009 | According to all that I shew thee, after the
pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the
instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it. |
025:010 | And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two
cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit
and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the
height thereof. |
025:011 | And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within
and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a
crown of gold round about. |
025:012 | And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it,
and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings
shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other
side of it. |
025:013 | And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and
overlay them with gold. |
025:014 | And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by
the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them. |
025:015 | The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they
shall not be taken from it. |
025:016 | And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony
which I shall give thee. |
025:017 | And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold:
two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a
cubit and a half the breadth thereof. |
025:018 | And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of
beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the
mercy seat. |
025:019 | And make one cherub on the one end, and the other
cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye
make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. |
025:020 | And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings
on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their
faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall
the faces of the cherubims be. |
025:021 | And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the
ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I
shall give thee. |
025:022 | And there I will meet with thee, and I will
commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between
the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony,
of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the
children of Israel. |
025:023 | Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood: two
cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth
thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. |
025:024 | And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and

feet thereof. |
025:027 | Over against the border shall the rings be for
places of the staves to bear the table. |
025:028 | And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with
them. |
025:029 | And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and
spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to
cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. |
025:030 | And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread
before me alway. |
025:031 | And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold:
of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and
his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall
be of the same. |
025:032 | And six branches shall come out of the sides of
it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side,
and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side: |
025:033 | Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop
and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like
almonds in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in
the six branches that come out of the candlestick. |
025:034 | And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made
like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers. |
025:035 | And there shall be a knop under two branches of
the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a
knop under two branches of the same, according to the six
branches that proceed out of the candlestick. |
025:036 | Their knops and their branches shall be of the
same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold. |
025:037 | And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and
they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light
over against it. |
025:038 | And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes
thereof, shall be of pure gold. |
025:039 | Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with
all these vessels. |
025:040 | And look that thou make them after their pattern,
which was shewed thee in the mount. |
|
026:001 | Moreover thou shalt make the
tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and
purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou
make them. |
026:002 | The length of one curtain shall be eight and
twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits:
and every one of the curtains shall have one measure. |
026:003 | The five curtains shall be coupled together one

curtain, in the coupling of the second. |
026:005 | Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain,
and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain
that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may

026:006 | And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and
couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall
be one tabernacle. |

loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second. |
026:011 | And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and
put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together,
that it may be one. |
026:012 | And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of
the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over
the backside of the tabernacle. |
026:013 | And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the
other side of that which remaineth in the length of the
curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the
tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it. |

026:032 | And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of
shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of
gold, upon the four sockets of silver. |
026:033 | And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches,
that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of
the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between
the holy place and the most holy. |
026:034 | And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of
the testimony in the most holy place. |
026:035 | And thou shalt set the table without the vail,

027:004 | And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of
brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in
the four corners thereof. |
027:005 | And thou shalt put it under the compass of the
altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the

027:007 | And the staves shall be put into the rings, and
the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear

cause the lamp to burn always. |
027:021 | In the tabernacle of the congregation without the
vail, which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons
shall order it from evening to morning before the LORD: it
shall be a statute for ever unto their generations on the
behalf of the children of Israel. |
|
028:001 | And take thou unto thee Aaron
thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of
Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office,
even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons. |
028:002 | And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy
brother for glory and for beauty. |
028:003 | And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise
hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that
they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he
may minister unto me in the priest's office. |
028:004 | And these are the garments which they shall make;
a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered
coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy
garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may
minister unto me in the priest's office. |
028:005 | And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine linen. |
028:006 | And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue,
and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with

028:007 | It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof
joined at the two edges thereof; and so it shall be joined
together. |
028:008 | And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is
upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work
thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and
fine twined linen. |
028:009 | And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on

028:010 | Six of their names on one stone, and the other
six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their
birth. |
028:011 | With the work of an engraver in stone, like the
engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones
with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make
them to be set in ouches of gold. |
028:012 | And thou shalt put the two stones upon the
shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the
children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before
the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial. |
028:013 | And thou shalt make ouches of gold; |
028:014 | And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of
wreathen work shalt thou make them, and fasten the wreathen
chains to the ouches. |
028:015 | And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment
with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt
make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet,
and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it. |
028:016 | Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span
shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth
thereof. |
028:017 | And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even
four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a
topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row. |
028:018 | And the second row shall be an emerald, a
sapphire, and a diamond. |
028:019 | And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an
amethyst. |
028:020 | And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a
jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings. |
028:021 | And the stones shall be with the names of the
children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like
the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall

at the ends of wreathen work of pure gold. |
028:023 | And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two
rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the two ends

028:024 | And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of
gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the
breastplate. |
028:025 | And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains
thou shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the
shoulderpieces of the ephod before it. |
028:026 | And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou
shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the
border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward. |
028:027 | And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and
shalt put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath,
toward the forepart thereof, over against the other coupling
thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod. |
028:028 | And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings
thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue,
that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and
that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod. |
028:029 | And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of
Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when
he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the
LORD continually. |
028:030 | And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment
the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's
heart, when he goeth in before the LORD: and Aaron shall
bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart
before the LORD continually. |
028:031 | And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of
blue. |
028:032 | And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in
the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work
round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an
habergeon, that it be not rent. |
028:033 | And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make
pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round
about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round
about: |
028:034 | A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell
and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about. |
028:035 | And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his
sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place
before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not. |
028:036 | And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and
grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO
THE LORD. |
028:037 | And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may
be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall
be. |
028:038 | And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron
may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children
of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall
be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted
before the LORD. |
028:039 | And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen,
and thou shalt make the mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt
make the girdle of needlework. |
028:040 | And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make coats, and
thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt thou
make for them, for glory and for beauty. |
028:041 | And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother,
and his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate
them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in
the priest's office. |
028:042 | And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover
their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they
shall reach: |
028:043 | And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons,
when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation,
or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the
holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall
be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him. |
|
029:001 | And this is the thing that
thou shalt do unto them to hallow them, to minister unto me in
the priest's office: Take one young bullock, and two rams
without blemish, |
029:002 | And unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened
tempered with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil:
of wheaten flour shalt thou make them. |
029:003 | And thou shalt put them into one basket, and
bring them in the basket, with the bullock and the two rams. |
029:004 | And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shalt wash
them with water. |
029:005 | And thou shalt take the garments, and put upon
Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod,
and the breastplate, and gird him with the curious girdle of
the ephod: |
029:006 | And thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and
put the holy crown upon the mitre. |
029:007 | Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour
it upon his head, and anoint him. |
029:008 | And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon
them. |
029:009 | And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and
his sons, and put the bonnets on them: and the priest's
office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou
shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons. |
029:010 | And thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought
before the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron and his
sons shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock. |
029:011 | And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD,
by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. |
029:012 | And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock,
and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger, and
pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar. |
029:013 | And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the
inwards, and the caul that is above the liver, and the two
kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them upon
the altar. |
029:014 | But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and
his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is
a sin offering. |
029:015 | Thou shalt also take one ram; and Aaron and his
sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram. |
029:016 | And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take
his blood, and sprinkle it round about upon the altar. |
029:017 | And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash
the inwards of him, and his legs, and put them unto his
pieces, and unto his head. |
029:018 | And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar:
it is a burnt offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour,
an offering made by fire unto the LORD. |
029:019 | And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and
his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram. |
029:020 | Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his
blood, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron,
and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the
thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their
right foot, and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round
about. |
029:021 | And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the
altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron,
and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the
garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and
his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him. |
029:022 | Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the
rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul
above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is
upon them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of
consecration: |
029:023 | And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled
bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened
bread that is before the LORD: |
029:024 | And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and
in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them for a wave
offering before the LORD. |
029:025 | And thou shalt receive them of their hands, and
burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet
savour before the LORD: it is an offering made by fire unto
the LORD. |
029:026 | And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of
Aaron's consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before
the LORD: and it shall be thy part. |
029:027 | And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave
offering, and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is
waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the
consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that
which is for his sons: |
029:028 | And it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by a
statute for ever from the children of Israel: for it is an
heave offering: and it shall be an heave offering from the
children of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace
offerings, even their heave offering unto the LORD. |
029:029 | And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons'
after him, to be anointed therein, and to be consecrated in
them. |
029:030 | And that son that is priest in his stead shall
put them on seven days, when he cometh into the tabernacle
of the congregation to minister in the holy place. |
029:031 | And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration,
and seethe his flesh in the holy place. |
029:032 | And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the
ram, and the bread that is in the basket by the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation. |
029:033 | And they shall eat those things wherewith the
atonement was made, to consecrate and to sanctify them: but
a stranger shall not eat thereof, because they are holy. |
029:034 | And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations,
or of the bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt
burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because
it is holy. |
029:035 | And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and to his
sons, according to all things which I have commanded thee:
seven days shalt thou consecrate them. |
029:036 | And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a
sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the
altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou
shalt anoint it, to sanctify it. |
029:037 | Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the
altar, and sanctify it; and it shall be an altar most holy:
whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy. |
029:038 | Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the
altar; two lambs of the first year day by day continually. |
029:039 | The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and
the other lamb thou shalt offer at even: |
029:040 | And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour
mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and
the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering. |
029:041 | And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and
shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the
morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a
sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD. |
029:042 | This shall be a continual burnt offering
throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you, to
speak there unto thee. |
029:043 | And there I will meet with the children of
Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory. |
029:044 | And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the
congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron
and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office. |
029:045 | And I will dwell among the children of Israel,
and will be their God. |
029:046 | And they shall know that I am the LORD their God,
that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may
dwell among them: I am the LORD their God. |
|
030:001 | And thou shalt make an altar
to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it. |
030:002 | A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit
the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits
shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof shall be of
the same. |
030:003 | And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top
thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns
thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round
about. |
030:004 | And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under
the crown of it, by the two corners thereof, upon the two
sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for places
for the staves to bear it withal. |
030:005 | And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with gold. |
030:006 | And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by
the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over
the testimony, where I will meet with thee. |
030:007 | And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every
morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense
upon it. |
030:008 | And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he
shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the
LORD throughout your generations. |
030:009 | Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor
burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour
drink offering thereon. |
030:010 | And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns
of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of
atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it
throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD. |
030:011 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:012 | When thou takest the sum of the children of
Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a
ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them;
that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest
them. |
030:013 | This they shall give, every one that passeth
among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel
of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half
shekel shall be the offering of the LORD. |
030:014 | Every one that passeth among them that are
numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an
offering unto the LORD. |
030:015 | The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall
not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering
unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls. |
030:016 | And thou shalt take the atonement money of the
children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of
the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a
memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to
make an atonement for your souls. |
030:017 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:018 | Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his
foot also of brass, to wash withal: and thou shalt put it
between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar,
and thou shalt put water therein. |
030:019 | For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and
their feet thereat: |
030:020 | When they go into the tabernacle of the
congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not;
or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn
offering made by fire unto the LORD: |
030:021 | So they shall wash their hands and their feet,
that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to
them, even to him and to his seed throughout their
generations. |
030:022 | Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
030:023 | Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of
pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half
so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet
calamus two hundred and fifty shekels, |
030:024 | And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the
shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin: |
030:025 | And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment,
an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it
shall be an holy anointing oil. |
030:026 | And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the
congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony, |
030:027 | And the table and all his vessels, and the
candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense, |
030:028 | And the altar of burnt offering with all his
vessels, and the laver and his foot. |
030:029 | And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be
most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy. |
030:030 | And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and
consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the
priest's office. |
030:031 | And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel,
saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto me
throughout your generations. |
030:032 | Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither
shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of
it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you. |
030:033 | Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever
putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off
from his people. |
030:034 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee
sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; these sweet
spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be a like
weight: |
030:035 | And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection
after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and
holy: |
030:036 | And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and
put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the
congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto
you most holy. |
030:037 | And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye
shall not make to yourselves according to the composition
thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD. |
030:038 | Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell
thereto, shall even be cut off from his people. |
|
031:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying, |
031:002 | See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of
Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: |
031:003 | And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in
wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all
manner of workmanship, |
031:004 | To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in
silver, and in brass, |
031:005 | And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in
carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. |
031:006 | And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the
son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of
all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may
make all that I have commanded thee; |
031:007 | The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark
of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and
all the furniture of the tabernacle, |
031:008 | And the table and his furniture, and the pure
candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of
incense, |
031:009 | And the altar of burnt offering with all his
furniture, and the laver and his foot, |
031:010 | And the cloths of service, and the holy garments
for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to
minister in the priest's office, |
031:011 | And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the
holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee
shall they do. |
031:012 | And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
031:013 | Speak thou also unto the children of Israel,
saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign
between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may
know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. |
031:014 | Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is
holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be
put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that
soul shall be cut off from among his people. |
031:015 | Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is
the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any
work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. |
031:016 | Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the
sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their
generations, for a perpetual covenant. |
031:017 | It is a sign between me and the children of
Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and
earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed. |
031:018 | And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end
of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of
testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God. |
|
032:001 | And when the people saw that
Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered
themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us
gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man
that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is
become of him. |
032:002 | And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden
earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons,
and of your daughters, and bring them unto me. |
032:003 | And all the people brake off the golden earrings
which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron. |
032:004 | And he received them at their hand, and fashioned
it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf:
and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought
thee up out of the land of Egypt. |
032:005 | And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before
it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a
feast to the LORD. |
032:006 | And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered
burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people
sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. |
032:007 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down;
for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of
Egypt, have corrupted themselves: |
032:008 | They have turned aside quickly out of the way
which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf,
and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and
said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee
up out of the land of Egypt. |
032:009 | And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this
people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: |
032:010 | Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax
hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will
make of thee a great nation. |
032:011 | And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said,
LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which
thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great
power, and with a mighty hand? |
032:012 | Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say,
For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the
mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth?
Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against
thy people. |
032:013 | Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy
servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst
unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven,
and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto
your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. |
032:014 | And the LORD repented of the evil which he
thought to do unto his people. |
032:015 | And Moses turned, and went down from the mount,
and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the
tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and
on the other were they written. |
032:016 | And the tables were the work of God, and the
writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables. |
032:017 | And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as
they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in
the camp. |
032:018 | And he said, It is not the voice of them that
shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry
for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I
hear. |
032:019 | And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto
the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses'
anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands,
and brake them beneath the mount. |
032:020 | And he took the calf which they had made, and
burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed
it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of
it. |
032:021 | And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people
unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them? |
032:022 | And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax
hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief. |
032:023 | For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall
go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us
up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of
him. |
032:024 | And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold,
let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it
into the fire, and there came out this calf. |
032:025 | And when Moses saw that the people were naked;
(for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their
enemies:) |
032:026 | Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and
said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And
all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. |
032:027 | And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of
Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and
out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every
man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man
his neighbour. |
032:028 | And the children of Levi did according to the
word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about
three thousand men. |
032:029 | For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today
to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his
brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day. |
032:030 | And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses
said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I
will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an
atonement for your sin. |
032:031 | And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh,
this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods
of gold. |
032:032 | Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if
not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast
written. |
032:033 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath
sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. |
032:034 | Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place
of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall
go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will
visit their sin upon them. |
032:035 | And the LORD plagued the people, because they
made the calf, which Aaron made. |
|
033:001 | And the LORD said unto Moses,
Depart, and go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast
brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware
unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will
I give it: |
033:002 | And I will send an angel before thee; and I will
drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and
the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: |
033:003 | Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I
will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a
stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way. |
033:004 | And when the people heard these evil tidings,
they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments. |
033:005 | For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the
children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come
up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee:
therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may
know what to do unto thee. |
033:006 | And the children of Israel stripped themselves of
their ornaments by the mount Horeb. |
033:007 | And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it
without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the
Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that
every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle
of the congregation, which was without the camp. |
033:008 | And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the
tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man
at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone
into the tabernacle. |
033:009 | And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the
tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the
door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. |
033:010 | And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at
the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and
worshipped, every man in his tent door. |
033:011 | And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a
man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the
camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man,
departed not out of the tabernacle. |
033:012 | And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest
unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know
whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee
by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. |
033:013 | Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace
in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee,
that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this
nation is thy people. |
033:014 | And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and
I will give thee rest. |
033:015 | And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with
me, carry us not up hence. |
033:016 | For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy
people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou
goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people,
from all the people that are upon the face of the earth. |
033:017 | And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this
thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace
in my sight, and I know thee by name. |
033:018 | And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. |
033:019 | And he said, I will make all my goodness pass
before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before
thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and
will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy. |
033:020 | And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for
there shall no man see me, and live. |
033:021 | And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by
me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock: |
033:022 | And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth
by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will
cover thee with my hand while I pass by: |
033:023 | And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt
see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen. |
|
034:001 | And the LORD said unto Moses,
Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will
write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables,
which thou brakest. |
034:002 | And be ready in the morning, and come up in the
morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in
the top of the mount. |
034:003 | And no man shall come up with thee, neither let
any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the
flocks nor herds feed before that mount. |
034:004 | And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the
first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up
unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in
his hand the two tables of stone. |
034:005 | And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood
with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD. |
034:006 | And the LORD passed by before him, and
proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious,
longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, |
034:007 | Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity
and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear
the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children, and upon the children's children, unto the third
and to the fourth generation. |
034:008 | And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward
the earth, and worshipped. |
034:009 | And he said, If now I have found grace in thy
sight, O LORD, let my LORD, I pray thee, go among us; for it
is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our
sin, and take us for thine inheritance. |
034:010 | And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before
all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done
in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people
among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it
is a terrible thing that I will do with thee. |
034:011 | Observe thou that which I command thee this day:
behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the
Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the
Hivite, and the Jebusite. |
034:012 | Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant
with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it
be for a snare in the midst of thee: |
034:013 | But ye shall destroy their altars, break their
images, and cut down their groves: |
034:014 | For thou shalt worship no other god: for the
LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God: |
034:015 | Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of
the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do
sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat
of his sacrifice; |
034:016 | And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons,
and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make
thy sons go a whoring after their gods. |
034:017 | Thou shalt make thee no molten gods. |
034:018 | The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep.
Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded
thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib
thou camest out from Egypt. |
034:019 | All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every
firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is
male. |
034:020 | But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem
with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou
break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt
redeem. And none shall appear before me empty. |
034:021 | Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day
thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt
rest. |
034:022 | And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the
firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering
at the year's end. |
034:023 | Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren
appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel. |
034:024 | For I will cast out the nations before thee, and
enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land,
when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy God
thrice in the year. |
034:025 | Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the
passover be left unto the morning. |
034:026 | The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou
shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt
not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. |
034:027 | And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these
words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a
covenant with thee and with Israel. |
034:028 | And he was there with the LORD forty days and
forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And
he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten
commandments. |
034:029 | And it came to pass, when Moses came down from
mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand,
when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that
the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. |
034:030 | And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw
Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were
afraid to come nigh him. |
034:031 | And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the
rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses
talked with them. |
034:032 | And afterward all the children of Israel came
nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had
spoken with him in mount Sinai. |
034:033 | And till Moses had done speaking with them, he
put a vail on his face. |
034:034 | But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak
with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he
came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which
he was commanded. |
034:035 | And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses,
that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail
upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. |
|
035:001 | And Moses gathered all the
congregation of the children of Israel together, and said unto
them, These are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye
should do them. |
035:002 | Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh
day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to
the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to
death. |
035:003 | Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your
habitations upon the sabbath day. |
035:004 | And Moses spake unto all the congregation of the
children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD
commanded, saying, |
035:005 | Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD:
whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an
offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass, |
035:006 | And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats' hair, |
035:007 | And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and
shittim wood, |
035:008 | And oil for the light, and spices for anointing
oil, and for the sweet incense, |
035:009 | And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the
ephod, and for the breastplate. |
035:010 | And every wise hearted among you shall come, and
make all that the LORD hath commanded; |
035:011 | The tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his
taches, and his boards, his bars, his pillars, and his
sockets, |
035:012 | The ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy
seat, and the vail of the covering, |
035:013 | The table, and his staves, and all his vessels,
and the shewbread, |
035:014 | The candlestick also for the light, and his
furniture, and his lamps, with the oil for the light, |
035:015 | And the incense altar, and his staves, and the
anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for
the door at the entering in of the tabernacle, |
035:016 | The altar of burnt offering, with his brasen
grate, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his
foot, |
035:017 | The hangings of the court, his pillars, and their
sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court, |
035:018 | The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the
court, and their cords, |
035:019 | The cloths of service, to do service in the holy
place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the
garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office. |
035:020 | And all the congregation of the children of
Israel departed from the presence of Moses. |
035:021 | And they came, every one whose heart stirred him
up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they
brought the LORD's offering to the work of the tabernacle of
the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy
garments. |
035:022 | And they came, both men and women, as many as
were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings,
and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man
that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD. |
035:023 | And every man, with whom was found blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and
red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them. |
035:024 | Every one that did offer an offering of silver
and brass brought the LORD's offering: and every man, with
whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service,
brought it. |
035:025 | And all the women that were wise hearted did spin
with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both
of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen. |
035:026 | And all the women whose heart stirred them up in
wisdom spun goats' hair. |
035:027 | And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to
be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate; |
035:028 | And spice, and oil for the light, and for the
anointing oil, and for the sweet incense. |
035:029 | The children of Israel brought a willing offering
unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made them
willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had
commanded to be made by the hand of Moses. |
035:030 | And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See,
the LORD hath called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the
son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; |
035:031 | And he hath filled him with the spirit of God, in
wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all
manner of workmanship; |
035:032 | And to devise curious works, to work in gold, and
in silver, and in brass, |
035:033 | And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in
carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work. |
035:034 | And he hath put in his heart that he may teach,
both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of
Dan. |
035:035 | Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to work
all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning
workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in
scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them
that do any work, and of those that devise cunning work. |
|
036:001 | Then wrought Bezaleel and
Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom
and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the
service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had
commanded. |
036:002 | And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every
wise hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom,
even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the
work to do it: |
036:003 | And they received of Moses all the offering,
which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the
service of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they
brought yet unto him free offerings every morning. |
036:004 | And all the wise men, that wrought all the work
of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they
made; |
036:005 | And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people
bring much more than enough for the service of the work,
which the LORD commanded to make. |
036:006 | And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to
be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man
nor woman make any more work for the offering of the
sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing. |
036:007 | For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the
work to make it, and too much. |
036:008 | And every wise hearted man among them that
wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine
twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with
cherubims of cunning work made he them. |
036:009 | The length of one curtain was twenty and eight
cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the
curtains were all of one size. |
036:010 | And he coupled the five curtains one unto
another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto
another. |
036:011 | And he made loops of blue on the edge of one
curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made
in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of
the second. |
036:012 | Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty
loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the
coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to
another. |
036:013 | And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled the
curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one
tabernacle. |
036:014 | And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent
over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them. |
036:015 | The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and
four cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven
curtains were of one size. |
036:016 | And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and
six curtains by themselves. |
036:017 | And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge
of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon
the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second. |
036:018 | And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the
tent together, that it might be one. |
036:019 | And he made a covering for the tent of rams'
skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that. |
036:020 | And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim
wood, standing up. |
036:021 | The length of a board was ten cubits, and the
breadth of a board one cubit and a half. |
036:022 | One board had two tenons, equally distant one
from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the
tabernacle. |
036:023 | And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty
boards for the south side southward: |
036:024 | And forty sockets of silver he made under the
twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two
tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two
tenons. |
036:025 | And for the other side of the tabernacle, which
is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards, |
036:026 | And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets
under one board, and two sockets under another board. |
036:027 | And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he
made six boards. |
036:028 | And two boards made he for the corners of the
tabernacle in the two sides. |
036:029 | And they were coupled beneath, and coupled
together at the head thereof, to one ring: thus he did to
both of them in both the corners. |
036:030 | And there were eight boards; and their sockets
were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two
sockets. |
036:031 | And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the
boards of the one side of the tabernacle, |
036:032 | And five bars for the boards of the other side of
the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the
tabernacle for the sides westward. |
036:033 | And he made the middle bar to shoot through the
boards from the one end to the other. |
036:034 | And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made
their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid
the bars with gold. |
036:035 | And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and
scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it of
cunning work. |
036:036 | And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim
wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold;
and he cast for them four sockets of silver. |
036:037 | And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door of
blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of
needlework; |
036:038 | And the five pillars of it with their hooks: and
he overlaid their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but
their five sockets were of brass. |
|
037:001 | And Bezaleel made the ark of
shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a
cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the
height of it: |
037:002 | And he overlaid it with pure gold within and
without, and made a crown of gold to it round about. |
037:003 | And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set
by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side
of it, and two rings upon the other side of it. |
037:004 | And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid
them with gold. |
037:005 | And he put the staves into the rings by the sides
of the ark, to bear the ark. |
037:006 | And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two
cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and
a half the breadth thereof. |
037:007 | And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of
one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat; |
037:008 | One cherub on the end on this side, and another
cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat
made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof. |
037:009 | And the cherubims spread out their wings on high,
and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their
faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the
faces of the cherubims. |
037:010 | And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits
was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and
a cubit and a half the height thereof: |
037:011 | And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made
thereunto a crown of gold round about. |
037:012 | Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth
round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof
round about. |
037:013 | And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put
the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet
thereof. |
037:014 | Over against the border were the rings, the
places for the staves to bear the table. |
037:015 | And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with gold, to bear the table. |
037:016 | And he made the vessels which were upon the
table, his dishes, and his spoons, and his bowls, and his
covers to cover withal, of pure gold. |
037:017 | And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of
beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his
branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the
same: |
037:018 | And six branches going out of the sides thereof;
three branches of the candlestick out of the one side
thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the
other side thereof: |
037:019 | Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in
one branch, a knop and a flower; and three bowls made like
almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so
throughout the six branches going out of the candlestick. |
037:020 | And in the candlestick were four bowls made like
almonds, his knops, and his flowers: |
037:021 | And a knop under two branches of the same, and a
knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the same, according to the six branches going
out of it. |
037:022 | Their knops and their branches were of the same:
all of it was one beaten work of pure gold. |
037:023 | And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers,
and his snuffdishes, of pure gold. |
037:024 | Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the
vessels thereof. |
037:025 | And he made the incense altar of shittim wood:
the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit;
it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the
horns thereof were of the same. |
037:026 | And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top
of it, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of
it: also he made unto it a crown of gold round about. |
037:027 | And he made two rings of gold for it under the
crown thereof, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides
thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal. |
037:028 | And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with gold. |
037:029 | And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure
incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the
apothecary. |
|
038:001 | And he made the altar of burnt
offering of shittim wood: five cubits was the length thereof,
and five cubits the breadth thereof; it was foursquare; and
three cubits the height thereof. |
038:002 | And he made the horns thereof on the four corners
of it; the horns thereof were of the same: and he overlaid
it with brass. |
038:003 | And he made all the vessels of the altar, the
pots, and the shovels, and the basons, and the fleshhooks,
and the firepans: all the vessels thereof made he of brass. |
038:004 | And he made for the altar a brasen grate of
network under the compass thereof beneath unto the midst of
it. |
038:005 | And he cast four rings for the four ends of the
grate of brass, to be places for the staves. |
038:006 | And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with brass. |
038:007 | And he put the staves into the rings on the sides
of the altar, to bear it withal; he made the altar hollow
with boards. |
038:008 | And he made the laver of brass, and the foot of
it of brass, of the lookingglasses of the women assembling,
which assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation. |
038:009 | And he made the court: on the south side
southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined
linen, an hundred cubits: |
038:010 | Their pillars were twenty, and their brasen
sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets
were of silver. |
038:011 | And for the north side the hangings were an
hundred cubits, their pillars were twenty, and their sockets
of brass twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets
of silver. |
038:012 | And for the west side were hangings of fifty
cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks
of the pillars and their fillets of silver. |
038:013 | And for the east side eastward fifty cubits. |
038:014 | The hangings of the one side of the gate were
fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets
three. |
038:015 | And for the other side of the court gate, on this
hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their
pillars three, and their sockets three. |
038:016 | All the hangings of the court round about were of
fine twined linen. |
038:017 | And the sockets for the pillars were of brass;
the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver; and
the overlaying of their chapiters of silver; and all the
pillars of the court were filleted with silver. |
038:018 | And the hanging for the gate of the court was
needlework, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the
height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the
hangings of the court. |
038:019 | And their pillars were four, and their sockets of
brass four; their hooks of silver, and the overlaying of
their chapiters and their fillets of silver. |
038:020 | And all the pins of the tabernacle, and of the
court round about, were of brass. |
038:021 | This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the
tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the
commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the
hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest. |
038:022 | And Bezaleel the son Uri, the son of Hur, of the
tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses. |
038:023 | And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of
the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and a cunning workman, and an
embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet, and fine
linen. |
038:024 | All the gold that was occupied for the work in
all the work of the holy place, even the gold of the
offering, was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and
thirty shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary. |
038:025 | And the silver of them that were numbered of the
congregation was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven
hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the shekel
of the sanctuary: |
038:026 | A bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel,
after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went
to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six
hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and
fifty men. |
038:027 | And of the hundred talents of silver were cast
the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the vail;
an hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent for a
socket. |
038:028 | And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and
five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid
their chapiters, and filleted them. |
038:029 | And the brass of the offering was seventy
talents, and two thousand and four hundred shekels. |
038:030 | And therewith he made the sockets to the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation, and the brasen altar,
and the brasen grate for it, and all the vessels of the
altar, |
038:031 | And the sockets of the court round about, and the
sockets of the court gate, and all the pins of the
tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about. |
|
039:001 | And of the blue, and purple,
and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the
holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD
commanded Moses. |
039:002 | And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen. |
039:003 | And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and
cut it into wires, to work it in the blue, and in the
purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen, with
cunning work. |
039:004 | They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it
together: by the two edges was it coupled together. |
039:005 | And the curious girdle of his ephod, that was
upon it, was of the same, according to the work thereof; of
gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:006 | And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches
of gold, graven, as signets are graven, with the names of
the children of Israel. |
039:007 | And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod,
that they should be stones for a memorial to the children of
Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:008 | And he made the breastplate of cunning work, like
the work of the ephod; of gold, blue, and purple, and
scarlet, and fine twined linen. |
039:009 | It was foursquare; they made the breastplate
double: a span was the length thereof, and a span the
breadth thereof, being doubled. |
039:010 | And they set in it four rows of stones: the first
row was a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this was the
first row. |
039:011 | And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a
diamond. |
039:012 | And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an
amethyst. |
039:013 | And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a
jasper: they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their
inclosings. |
039:014 | And the stones were according to the names of the
children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like
the engravings of a signet, every one with his name,
according to the twelve tribes. |
039:015 | And they made upon the breastplate chains at the
ends, of wreathen work of pure gold. |
039:016 | And they made two ouches of gold, and two gold
rings; and put the two rings in the two ends of the
breastplate. |
039:017 | And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in
the two rings on the ends of the breastplate. |
039:018 | And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they
fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the
shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it. |
039:019 | And they made two rings of gold, and put them on
the two ends of the breastplate, upon the border of it,
which was on the side of the ephod inward. |
039:020 | And they made two other golden rings, and put
them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the
forepart of it, over against the other coupling thereof,
above the curious girdle of the ephod. |
039:021 | And they did bind the breastplate by his rings
unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it
might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the
breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as the LORD
commanded Moses. |
039:022 | And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work,
all of blue. |
039:023 | And there was an hole in the midst of the robe,
as the hole of an habergeon, with a band round about the
hole, that it should not rend. |
039:024 | And they made upon the hems of the robe
pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined
linen. |
039:025 | And they made bells of pure gold, and put the
bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe,
round about between the pomegranates; |
039:026 | A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a
pomegranate, round about the hem of the robe to minister in;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:027 | And they made coats of fine linen of woven work
for Aaron, and for his sons, |
039:028 | And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of
fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen, |
039:029 | And a girdle of fine twined linen, and blue, and
purple, and scarlet, of needlework; as the LORD commanded
Moses. |
039:030 | And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure
gold, and wrote upon it a writing, like to the engravings of
a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. |
039:031 | And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten
it on high upon the mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
039:032 | Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the
tent of the congregation finished: and the children of
Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses,
so did they. |
039:033 | And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the
tent, and all his furniture, his taches, his boards, his
bars, and his pillars, and his sockets, |
039:034 | And the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the
covering of badgers' skins, and the vail of the covering, |
039:035 | The ark of the testimony, and the staves thereof,
and the mercy seat, |
039:036 | The table, and all the vessels thereof, and the
shewbread, |
039:037 | The pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof,
even with the lamps to be set in order, and all the vessels
thereof, and the oil for light, |
039:038 | And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and
the sweet incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle door, |
039:039 | The brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his
staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot, |
039:040 | The hangings of the court, his pillars, and his
sockets, and the hanging for the court gate, his cords, and
his pins, and all the vessels of the service of the
tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation, |
039:041 | The cloths of service to do service in the holy
place, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his
sons' garments, to minister in the priest's office. |
039:042 | According to all that the LORD commanded Moses,
so the children of Israel made all the work. |
039:043 | And Moses did look upon all the work, and,
behold, they had done it as the LORD had commanded, even so
had they done it: and Moses blessed them. |
|
040:001 | And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying, |
040:002 | On the first day of the first month shalt thou
set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation. |
040:003 | And thou shalt put therein the ark of the
testimony, and cover the ark with the vail. |
040:004 | And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in
order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and
thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps
thereof. |
040:005 | And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the
incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging
of the door to the tabernacle. |
040:006 | And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt
offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of
the congregation. |
040:007 | And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of
the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein. |
040:008 | And thou shalt set up the court round about, and
hang up the hanging at the court gate. |
040:009 | And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint
the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow
it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy. |
040:010 | And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt
offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and
it shall be an altar most holy. |
040:011 | And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and
sanctify it. |
040:012 | And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them
with water. |
040:013 | And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments,
and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto
me in the priest's office. |
040:014 | And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them
with coats: |
040:015 | And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint
their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's
office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting
priesthood throughout their generations. |
040:016 | Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD
commanded him, so did he. |
040:017 | And it came to pass in the first month in the
second year, on the first day of the month, that the
tabernacle was reared up. |
040:018 | And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened
his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the
bars thereof, and reared up his pillars. |
040:019 | And he spread abroad the tent over the
tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it;
as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:020 | And he took and put the testimony into the ark,
and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above
upon the ark: |
040:021 | And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and
set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the
testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:022 | And he put the table in the tent of the
congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward,
without the vail. |
040:023 | And he set the bread in order upon it before the
LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
040:024 | And he put the candlestick in the tent of the
congregation, over against the table, on the side of the
tabernacle southward. |
040:025 | And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the
LORD commanded Moses. |
040:026 | And he put the golden altar in the tent of the
congregation before the vail: |
040:027 | And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD
commanded Moses. |
040:028 | And he set up the hanging at the door of the
tabernacle. |
040:029 | And he put the altar of burnt offering by the
door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and
offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering; as
the LORD commanded Moses. |
040:030 | And he set the laver between the tent of the
congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash
withal. |
040:031 | And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their
hands and their feet thereat: |
040:032 | When they went into the tent of the congregation,
and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the
LORD commanded Moses. |
040:033 | And he reared up the court round about the
tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the
court gate. So Moses finished the work. |
040:034 | Then a cloud covered the tent of the
congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the
tabernacle. |
040:035 | And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of
the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the
glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. |
040:036 | And when the cloud was taken up from over the
tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their
journeys: |
040:037 | But if the cloud were not taken up, then they
journeyed not till the day that it was taken up. |
040:038 | For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle
by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the
house of Israel, throughout all their journeys. |
