that they defile not their camps, in the midst + whereof I dwell. + +04:005:004 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without + the camp: as the LORD spake unto Moses, so did the children of + Israel. + +04:005:005 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:005:006 Speak unto the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall + commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the + LORD, and that person be guilty; + +04:005:007 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he + shall recompense his trespass with the principal thereof, and + add unto it the fifth part thereof, and give it unto him + against whom he hath trespassed. + +04:005:008 But if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass + unto, let the trespass be recompensed unto the LORD, even to + the priest; beside the ram of the atonement, whereby an + atonement shall be made for him. + +04:005:009 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of + Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his. + +04:005:010 And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any + man giveth the priest, it shall be his. + +04:005:011 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:005:012 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any + man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him, + +04:005:013 And a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes + of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and + there be no witness against her, neither she be taken with the + manner; + +04:005:014 And the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of + his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy + come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not + defiled: + +04:005:015 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he + shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah + of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put + frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an + offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance. + +04:005:016 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the + LORD: + +04:005:017 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and + of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest + shall take, and put it into the water: + +04:005:018 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and + uncover the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial in + her hands, which is the jealousy offering: and the priest + shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the + curse: + +04:005:019 And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the + woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not + gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy husband, + be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse: + +04:005:020 But if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy husband, + and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee + beside thine husband: + +04:005:021 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of + cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD + make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD + doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell; + +04:005:022 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy + bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And + the woman shall say, Amen, amen. + +04:005:023 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he + shall blot them out with the bitter water: + +04:005:024 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that + causeth the curse: and the water that causeth the curse shall + enter into her, and become bitter. + +04:005:025 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the + woman's hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and + offer it upon the altar: + +04:005:026 And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, even the + memorial thereof, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward + shall cause the woman to drink the water. + +04:005:027 And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall + come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass + against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse + shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall + swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse + among her people. + +04:005:028 And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall + be free, and shall conceive seed. + +04:005:029 This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to + another instead of her husband, and is defiled; + +04:005:030 Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he be + jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the + LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law. + +04:005:031 Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman + shall bear her iniquity. + +04:006:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:006:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When + either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of + a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the LORD: + +04:006:003 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and + shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, + neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist + grapes, or dried. + +04:006:004 All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is + made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. + +04:006:005 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor + come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which + he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and + shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. + +04:006:006 All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall + come at no dead body. + +04:006:007 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his + mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: + because the consecration of his God is upon his head. + +04:006:008 All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD. + +04:006:009 And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he hath defiled + the head of his consecration; then he shall shave his head in + the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave + it. + +04:006:010 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young + pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the + congregation: + +04:006:011 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the + other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement for him, for + that he sinned by the dead, and shall hallow his head that + same day. + +04:006:012 And he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his + separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a + trespass offering: but the days that were before shall be + lost, because his separation was defiled. + +04:006:013 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his + separation are fulfilled: he shall be brought unto the door of + the tabernacle of the congregation: + +04:006:014 And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he lamb of + the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one + ewe lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, + and one ram without blemish for peace offerings, + +04:006:015 And a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled + with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with oil, + and their meat offering, and their drink offerings. + +04:006:016 And the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall + offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering: + +04:006:017 And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings + unto the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread: the priest + shall offer also his meat offering, and his drink offering. + +04:006:018 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the + door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the + hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire + which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings. + +04:006:019 And the priest shall take the sodden shoulder of the ram, and + one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened + wafer, and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite, + after the hair of his separation is shaven: + +04:006:020 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the + LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and + heave shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine. + +04:006:021 This is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of his + offering unto the LORD for his separation, beside that that + his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he + must do after the law of his separation. + +04:006:022 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:006:023 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye + shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, + +04:006:024 The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: + +04:006:025 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto + thee: + +04:006:026 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee + peace. + +04:006:027 And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I + will bless them. + +04:007:001 And it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up the + tabernacle, and had anointed it, and sanctified it, and all + the instruments thereof, both the altar and all the vessels + thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them; + +04:007:002 That the princes of Israel, heads of the house of their + fathers, who were the princes of the tribes, and were over + them that were numbered, offered: + +04:007:003 And they brought their offering before the LORD, six covered + wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for two of the princes, and + for each one an ox: and they brought them before the + tabernacle. + +04:007:004 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:007:005 Take it of them, that they may be to do the service of the + tabernacle of the congregation; and thou shalt give them unto + the Levites, to every man according to his service. + +04:007:006 And Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the + Levites. + +04:007:007 Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon, + according to their service: + +04:007:008 And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of + Merari, according unto their service, under the hand of + Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. + +04:007:009 But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none: because the service + of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they should bear + upon their shoulders. + +04:007:010 And the princes offered for dedicating of the altar in the day + that it was anointed, even the princes offered their offering + before the altar. + +04:007:011 And the LORD said unto Moses, They shall offer their offering, + each prince on his day, for the dedicating of the altar. + +04:007:012 And he that offered his offering the first day was Nahshon the + son of Amminadab, of the tribe of Judah: + +04:007:013 And his offering was one silver charger, the weight thereof + was an hundred and thirty shekels, one silver bowl of seventy + shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary;

he lighted the lamps thereof over against + the candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses. + +04:008:004 And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, unto the + shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, was beaten work: + according unto the pattern which the LORD had shewed Moses, so + he made the candlestick. + +04:008:005 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:008:006 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and + cleanse them. + +04:008:007 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle + water of purifying upon them, and let them shave all their + flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves + clean. + +04:008:008 Then let them take a young bullock with his meat offering, + even fine flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock + shalt thou take for a sin offering. + +04:008:009 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the + congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the + children of Israel together: + +04:008:010 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the + children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites: + +04:008:011 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an + offering of the children of Israel, that they may execute the + service of the LORD. + +04:008:012 And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the + bullocks: and thou shalt offer the one for a sin offering, and + the other for a burnt offering, unto the LORD, to make an + atonement for the Levites. + +04:008:013 And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his + sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD. + +04:008:014 Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children + of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine. + +04:008:015 And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service of + the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt cleanse + them, and offer them for an offering. + +04:008:016 For they are wholly given unto me from among the children of + Israel; instead of such as open every womb, even instead of + the firstborn of all the children of Israel, have I taken them + unto me. + +04:008:017 For all the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine, both + man and beast: on the day that I smote every firstborn in the + land of Egypt I sanctified them for myself. + +04:008:018 And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the + children of Israel. + +04:008:019 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his + sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of + the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, + and to make an atonement for the children of Israel: that + there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the + children of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary. + +04:008:020 And Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children + of Israel, did to the Levites according unto all that the LORD + commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did the children of + Israel unto them. + +04:008:021 And the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes; + and Aaron offered them as an offering before the LORD; and + Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them. + +04:008:022 And after that went the Levites in to do their service in the + tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his + sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, + so did they unto them. + +04:008:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:008:024 This is it that belongeth unto the Levites: from twenty and + five years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon the + service of the tabernacle of the congregation: + +04:008:025 And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon + the service thereof, and shall serve no more: + +04:008:026 But shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle of + the congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service. + Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charge. + +04:009:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in + the first month of the second year after they were come out of + the land of Egypt, saying, + +04:009:002 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his + appointed season. + +04:009:003 In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it + in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and + according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it. + +04:009:004 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should + keep the passover. + +04:009:005 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first + month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all + that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel. + +04:009:006 And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body + of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: + and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day: + +04:009:007 And those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body + of a man: wherefore are we kept back, that we may not offer an + offering of the LORD in his appointed season among the + children of Israel? + +04:009:008 And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what + the LORD will command concerning you. + +04:009:009 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:009:010 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you + or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead + body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the + passover unto the LORD. + +04:009:011 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep + it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. + +04:009:012 They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any + bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover + they shall keep it. + +04:009:013 But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and + forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be + cut off from among his people: because he brought not the + offering of the LORD in his appointed season, that man shall + bear his sin. + +04:009:014 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the + passover unto the LORD; according to the ordinance of the + passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: + ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for + him that was born in the land. + +04:009:015 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud + covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and + at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the + appearance of fire, until the morning. + +04:009:016 So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the + appearance of fire by night. + +04:009:017 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then + after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place + where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched + their tents. + +04:009:018 At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel + journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched: as + long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in + their tents. + +04:009:019 And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, + then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and + journeyed not. + +04:009:020 And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the + tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they + abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of the + LORD they journeyed. + +04:009:021 And so it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the + morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then + they journeyed: whether it was by day or by night that the + cloud was taken up, they journeyed. + +04:009:022 Or whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the + cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the + children of Israel abode in their tents, and journeyed not: + but when it was taken up, they journeyed. + +04:009:023 At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and + at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the + charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand + of Moses. + +04:010:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:010:002 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou + make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the + assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. + +04:010:003 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall + assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of + the congregation. + +04:010:004 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which + are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves + unto thee. + +04:010:005 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east + parts shall go forward. + +04:010:006 When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie + on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an + alarm for their journeys. + +04:010:007 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall + blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. + +04:010:008 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the + trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever + throughout your generations. + +04:010:009 And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that + oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; + and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye + shall be saved from your enemies. + +04:010:010 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and + in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the + trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of + your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial + before your God: I am the LORD your God. + +04:010:011 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, + in the second year, that the cloud was taken up from off the + tabernacle of the testimony. + +04:010:012 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the + wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of + Paran. + +04:010:013 And they first took their journey according to the commandment + of the LORD by the hand of Moses. + +04:010:014 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the + children of Judah according to their armies: and over his host + was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. + +04:010:015 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was + Nethaneel the son of Zuar. + +04:010:016 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was + Eliab the son of Helon. + +04:010:017 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and + the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle. + +04:010:018 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according + to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of + Shedeur. + +04:010:019 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was + Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. + +04:010:020 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was + Eliasaph the son of Deuel. + +04:010:021 And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the + other did set up the tabernacle against they came. + +04:010:022 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set + forward according to their armies: and over his host was + Elishama the son of Ammihud. + +04:010:023 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was + Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. + +04:010:024 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was + Abidan the son of Gideoni. + +04:010:025 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set + forward, which was the rereward of all the camps throughout + their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of + Ammishaddai. + +04:010:026 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was + Pagiel the son of Ocran. + +04:010:027 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was + Ahira the son of Enan. + +04:010:028 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according + to their armies, when they set forward. + +04:010:029 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, + Moses' father in law, We are journeying unto the place of + which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, + and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good + concerning Israel. + +04:010:030 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine + own land, and to my kindred. + +04:010:031 And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou + knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou + mayest be to us instead of eyes. + +04:010:032 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that + what goodness the LORD shall do unto us, the same will we do + unto thee. + +04:010:033 And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days' + journey: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before + them in the three days' journey, to search out a resting place + for them. + +04:010:034 And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when they went + out of the camp. + +04:010:035 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses + said, Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and + let them that hate thee flee before thee. + +04:010:036 And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the many + thousands of Israel. + +04:011:001 And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and + the LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of + the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the + uttermost parts of the camp. + +04:011:002 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto + the LORD, the fire was quenched. + +04:011:003 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire + of the LORD burnt among them. + +04:011:004 And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and + the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall + give us flesh to eat? + +04:011:005 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the + cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and + the garlick: + +04:011:006 But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, + beside this manna, before our eyes. + +04:011:007 And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as + the colour of bdellium. + +04:011:008 And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in + mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made + cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh + oil. + +04:011:009 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna + fell upon it. + +04:011:010 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, + every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD + was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased. + +04:011:011 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted + thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy + sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? + +04:011:012 Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that + thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a + nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which + thou swarest unto their fathers? + +04:011:013 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for + they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. + +04:011:014 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too + heavy for me. + +04:011:015 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of + hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see + my wretchedness. + +04:011:016 And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of + the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of + the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the + tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with + thee. + +04:011:017 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take + of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; + and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that + thou bear it not thyself alone. + +04:011:018 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to + morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears + of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it + was well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you + flesh, and ye shall eat. + +04:011:019 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither + ten days, nor twenty days; + +04:011:020 But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, + and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised + the LORD which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, + Why came we forth out of Egypt? + +04:011:021 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred + thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, + that they may eat a whole month. + +04:011:022 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice + them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together + for them, to suffice them? + +04:011:023 And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD's hand waxed short? + thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto + thee or not. + +04:011:024 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, + and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and + set them round about the tabernacle. + +04:011:025 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and + took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the + seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit + rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease. + +04:011:026 But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the + one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit + rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but + went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the + camp. + +04:011:027 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and + Medad do prophesy in the camp. + +04:011:028 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his + young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. + +04:011:029 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God + that all the LORD's people were prophets, and that the LORD + would put his spirit upon them! + +04:011:030 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. + +04:011:031 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails + from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a + day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on + the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two + cubits high upon the face of the earth. + +04:011:032 And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and + all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that + gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all + abroad for themselves round about the camp. + +04:011:033 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was + chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, + and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague. + +04:011:034 And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because + there they buried the people that lusted. + +04:011:035 And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth; + and abode at Hazeroth. + +04:012:001 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the + Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an + Ethiopian woman. + +04:012:002 And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath + he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard it. + +04:012:003 (Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were + upon the face of the earth.) + +04:012:004 And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and + unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the + congregation. And they three came out. + +04:012:005 And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood + in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: + and they both came forth. + +04:012:006 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among + you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, + and will speak unto him in a dream. + +04:012:007 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house. + +04:012:008 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not + in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he + behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my + servant Moses? + +04:012:009 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he + departed. + +04:012:010 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, + Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon + Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous. + +04:012:011 And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay + not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and + wherein we have sinned. + +04:012:012 Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed + when he cometh out of his mother's womb. + +04:012:013 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I + beseech thee. + +04:012:014 And the LORD said unto Moses, If her father had but spit in + her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? let her be + shut out from the camp seven days, and after that let her be + received in again. + +04:012:015 And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the + people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again. + +04:012:016 And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in + the wilderness of Paran. + +04:013:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:013:002 Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which + I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their + fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them. + +04:013:003 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the + wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children + of Israel. + +04:013:004 And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua + the son of Zaccur. + +04:013:005 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. + +04:013:006 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. + +04:013:007 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. + +04:013:008 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun. + +04:013:009 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. + +04:013:010 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. + +04:013:011 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, + Gaddi the son of Susi. + +04:013:012 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. + +04:013:013 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. + +04:013:014 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. + +04:013:015 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. + +04:013:016 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the + land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. + +04:013:017 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said + unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the + mountain: + +04:013:018 And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth + therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many; + +04:013:019 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or + bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in + tents, or in strong holds; + +04:013:020 And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there + be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring + of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the + firstripe grapes. + +04:013:021 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of + Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath. + +04:013:022 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where + Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now + Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) + +04:013:023 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from + thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it + between two upon a staff; and they brought of the + pomegranates, and of the figs. + +04:013:024 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster + of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence. + +04:013:025 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days. + +04:013:026 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the + congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of + Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto + all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land. + +04:013:027 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither + thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; + and this is the fruit of it. + +04:013:028 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and + the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the + children of Anak there. + +04:013:029 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the + Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the + mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the + coast of Jordan. + +04:013:030 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go + up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome + it. + +04:013:031 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go + up against the people; for they are stronger than we. + +04:013:032 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had + searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, + through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth + up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in + it are men of a great stature. + +04:013:033 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of + the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and + so we were in their sight. + +04:014:001 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and + the people wept that night. + +04:014:002 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and + against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, + Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God + we had died in this wilderness! + +04:014:003 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall + by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a + prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt? + +04:014:004 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let + us return into Egypt. + +04:014:005 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the + assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel. + +04:014:006 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, + which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes: + +04:014:007 And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, + saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an + exceeding good land. + +04:014:008 If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this + land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and + honey. + +04:014:009 Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people + of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is + departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not. + +04:014:010 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones. And the + glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the + congregation before all the children of Israel. + +04:014:011 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people + provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for + all the signs which I have shewed among them? + +04:014:012 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, + and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they. + +04:014:013 And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear + it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from + among them;) + +04:014:014 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for + they have heard that thou LORD art among this people, that + thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth + over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a + pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night. + +04:014:015 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the + nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying, + +04:014:016 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the + land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in + the wilderness. + +04:014:017 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, + according as thou hast spoken, saying, + +04:014:018 The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving + iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the + guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children + unto the third and fourth generation. + +04:014:019 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according + unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven + this people, from Egypt even until now. + +04:014:020 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word: + +04:014:021 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the + glory of the LORD. + +04:014:022 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my + miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have + tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my + voice; + +04:014:023 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their + fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it: + +04:014:024 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, + and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land + whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it. + +04:014:025 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) + Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way + of the Red sea. + +04:014:026 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, + +04:014:027 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which + murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children + of Israel, which they murmur against me. + +04:014:028 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have + spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: + +04:014:029 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were + numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty + years old and upward which have murmured against me. + +04:014:030 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I + sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of + Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. + +04:014:031 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them + will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have + despised. + +04:014:032 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this + wilderness. + +04:014:033 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, + and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the + wilderness. + +04:014:034 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, + even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your + iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of + promise. + +04:014:035 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil + congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this + wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die. + +04:014:036 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who + returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, + by bringing up a slander upon the land, + +04:014:037 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the + land, died by the plague before the LORD. + +04:014:038 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, + which were of the men that went to search the land, lived + still. + +04:014:039 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: + and the people mourned greatly. + +04:014:040 And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into + the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go + up unto the place which the LORD hath promised: for we have + sinned. + +04:014:041 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment + of the LORD? but it shall not prosper. + +04:014:042 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not + smitten before your enemies. + +04:014:043 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, + and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away + from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you. + +04:014:044 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the + ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out + of the camp. + +04:014:045 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt + in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto + Hormah. + +04:015:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:015:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye + be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto + you, + +04:015:003 And will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt + offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill + offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet savour + unto the LORD, of the herd or of the flock: + +04:015:004 Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD bring a + meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth + part of an hin of oil. + +04:015:005 And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering + shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for + one lamb. + +04:015:006 Or for a ram, thou shalt prepare for a meat offering two tenth + deals of flour mingled with the third part of an hin of oil. + +04:015:007 And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an + hin of wine, for a sweet savour unto the LORD. + +04:015:008 And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for + a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings unto the + LORD: + +04:015:009 Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three + tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil. + +04:015:010 And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, + for an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. + +04:015:011 Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for + a lamb, or a kid. + +04:015:012 According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do + to every one according to their number. + +04:015:013 All that are born of the country shall do these things after + this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet + savour unto the LORD. + +04:015:014 And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you + in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, + of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do. + +04:015:015 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and + also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance + for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger + be before the LORD. + +04:015:016 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger + that sojourneth with you. + +04:015:017 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:015:018 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye + come into the land whither I bring you, + +04:015:019 Then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, + ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the LORD. + +04:015:020 Ye shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an + heave offering: as ye do the heave offering of the + threshingfloor, so shall ye heave it. + +04:015:021 Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an + heave offering in your generations. + +04:015:022 And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, + which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses, + +04:015:023 Even all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of + Moses, from the day that the LORD commanded Moses, and + henceforward among your generations; + +04:015:024 Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without + the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation + shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a + sweet savour unto the LORD, with his meat offering, and his + drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the + goats for a sin offering. + +04:015:025 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the + congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be + forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their + offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD, and their + sin offering before the LORD, for their ignorance: + +04:015:026 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children + of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them; seeing + all the people were in ignorance. + +04:015:027 And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a + she goat of the first year for a sin offering. + +04:015:028 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that + sinneth ignorantly, when he sinneth by ignorance before the + LORD, to make an atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven + him. + +04:015:029 Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, + both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and + for the stranger that sojourneth among them. + +04:015:030 But the soul that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be + born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth the + LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people. + +04:015:031 Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken + his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his + iniquity shall be upon him. + +04:015:032 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they + found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. + +04:015:033 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto + Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. + +04:015:034 And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what + should be done to him. + +04:015:035 And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to + death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones + without the camp. + +04:015:036 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and + stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded + Moses. + +04:015:037 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:015:038 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make + them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their + generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders + a ribband of blue: + +04:015:039 And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon + it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do + them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own + eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: + +04:015:040 That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy + unto your God. + +04:015:041 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of + Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God. + +04:016:001 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of + Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the + son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men: + +04:016:002 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of + Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous + in the congregation, men of renown: + +04:016:003 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and + against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, + seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and + the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves + above the congregation of the LORD? + +04:016:004 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face: + +04:016:005 And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even + to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and + will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath + chosen will he cause to come near unto him. + +04:016:006 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company; + +04:016:007 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD + to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth + choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons + of Levi. + +04:016:008 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi: + +04:016:009 Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel + hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring + you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the + LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto + them? + +04:016:010 And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the + sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also? + +04:016:011 For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered + together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur + against him? + +04:016:012 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: + which said, We will not come up: + +04:016:013 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land + that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the + wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over + us? + +04:016:014 Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth + with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and + vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will + not come up. + +04:016:015 And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not + thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, + neither have I hurt one of them. + +04:016:016 And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before + the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow: + +04:016:017 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and + bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and + fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer. + +04:016:018 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and + laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle + of the congregation with Moses and Aaron. + +04:016:019 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the + door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of + the LORD appeared unto all the congregation. + +04:016:020 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, + +04:016:021 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may + consume them in a moment. + +04:016:022 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of + the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be + wroth with all the congregation? + +04:016:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:016:024 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the + tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. + +04:016:025 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the + elders of Israel followed him. + +04:016:026 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray + you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of + their's, lest ye be consumed in all their sins. + +04:016:027 So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and + Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and + stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their + sons, and their little children. + +04:016:028 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent + me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own + mind. + +04:016:029 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be + visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hath + not sent me. + +04:016:030 But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her + mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, + and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand + that these men have provoked the LORD. + +04:016:031 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all + these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under + them: + +04:016:032 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and + their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and + all their goods. + +04:016:033 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into + the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished + from among the congregation. + +04:016:034 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of + them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also. + +04:016:035 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two + hundred and fifty men that offered incense. + +04:016:036 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:016:037 Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take + up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire + yonder; for they are hallowed. + +04:016:038 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them + make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they + offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and + they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel. + +04:016:039 And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they + that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates + for a covering of the altar: + +04:016:040 To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no + stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to + offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as + his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses. + +04:016:041 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of + Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye + have killed the people of the LORD. + +04:016:042 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered + against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the + tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered + it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. + +04:016:043 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the + congregation. + +04:016:044 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:016:045 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume + them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces. + +04:016:046 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein + from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto + the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is + wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun. + +04:016:047 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of + the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the + people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the + people. + +04:016:048 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague + was stayed. + +04:016:049 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and + seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of + Korah. + +04:016:050 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle + of the congregation: and the plague was stayed. + +04:017:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:017:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of + them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all + their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve + rods: write thou every man's name upon his rod. + +04:017:003 And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for + one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers. + +04:017:004 And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the + congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you. + +04:017:005 And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall + choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the + murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur + against you. + +04:017:006 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and every one of + their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, + according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the + rod of Aaron was among their rods. + +04:017:007 And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle + of witness. + +04:017:008 And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the + tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the + house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed + blossoms, and yielded almonds. + +04:017:009 And Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD unto + all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every + man his rod. + +04:017:010 And the LORD said unto Moses, Bring Aaron's rod again before + the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and + thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they + die not. + +04:017:011 And Moses did so: as the LORD commanded him, so did he. + +04:017:012 And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, + we die, we perish, we all perish. + +04:017:013 Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the + LORD shall die: shall we be consumed with dying? + +04:018:001 And the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy + father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the + sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the + iniquity of your priesthood. + +04:018:002 And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy + father, bring thou with thee, that they may be joined unto + thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee + shall minister before the tabernacle of witness. + +04:018:003 And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the + tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the + sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor ye also, die. + +04:018:004 And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the + tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the + tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you. + +04:018:005 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge + of the altar: that there be no wrath any more upon the + children of Israel. + +04:018:006 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from + among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift + for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the + congregation. + +04:018:007 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's + office for everything of the altar, and within the vail; and + ye shall serve: I have given your priest's office unto you as + a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be + put to death. + +04:018:008 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee + the charge of mine heave offerings of all the hallowed things + of the children of Israel; unto thee have I given them by + reason of the anointing, and to thy sons, by an ordinance for + ever. + +04:018:009 This shall be thine of the most holy things, reserved from the + fire: every oblation of their's, every meat offering of + their's, and every sin offering of their's, and every trespass + offering of their's which they shall render unto me, shall be + most holy for thee and for thy sons. + +04:018:010 In the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat + it: it shall be holy unto thee. + +04:018:011 And this is thine; the heave offering of their gift, with all + the wave offerings of the children of Israel: I have given + them unto thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with + thee, by a statute for ever: every one that is clean in thy + house shall eat of it. + +04:018:012 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of + the wheat, the firstfruits of them which they shall offer unto + the LORD, them have I given thee. + +04:018:013 And whatsoever is first ripe in the land, which they shall + bring unto the LORD, shall be thine; every one that is clean + in thine house shall eat of it. + +04:018:014 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine. + +04:018:015 Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they + bring unto the LORD, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be + thine: nevertheless the firstborn of man shalt thou surely + redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem. + +04:018:016 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou + redeem, according to thine estimation, for the money of five + shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty + gerahs. + +04:018:017 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or + the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: + thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn + their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet savour + unto the LORD. + +04:018:018 And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and + as the right shoulder are thine. + +04:018:019 All the heave offerings of the holy things, which the children + of Israel offer unto the LORD, have I given thee, and thy sons + and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: it is a + covenant of salt for ever before the LORD unto thee and to thy + seed with thee. + +04:018:020 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance + in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I + am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of + Israel. + +04:018:021 And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth + in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they + serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation. + +04:018:022 Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the + tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die. + +04:018:023 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the + congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be + a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the + children of Israel they have no inheritance. + +04:018:024 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as + an heave offering unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites + to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the + children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. + +04:018:025 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:018:026 Thus speak unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye take + of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you + from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up an + heave offering of it for the LORD, even a tenth part of the + tithe. + +04:018:027 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as + though it were the corn of the threshingfloor, and as the + fulness of the winepress. + +04:018:028 Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the LORD of + all your tithes, which ye receive of the children of Israel; + and ye shall give thereof the LORD's heave offering to Aaron + the priest. + +04:018:029 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of + the LORD, of all the best thereof, even the hallowed part + thereof out of it. + +04:018:030 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, When ye have heaved the + best thereof from it, then it shall be counted unto the + Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor, and as the + increase of the winepress. + +04:018:031 And ye shall eat it in every place, ye and your households: + for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of + the congregation. + +04:018:032 And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved + from it the best of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy + things of the children of Israel, lest ye die. + +04:019:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, + +04:019:002 This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath + commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that + they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no + blemish, and upon which never came yoke: + +04:019:003 And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may + bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her + before his face: + +04:019:004 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his + finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the + tabernacle of the congregation seven times: + +04:019:005 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her + flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn: + +04:019:006 And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, + and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer. + +04:019:007 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his + flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and + the priest shall be unclean until the even. + +04:019:008 And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and + bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even. + +04:019:009 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the + heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and + it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of + Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for + sin. + +04:019:010 And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his + clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be unto + the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth + among them, for a statute for ever. + +04:019:011 He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean + seven days. + +04:019:012 He shall purify himself with it on the third day, and on the + seventh day he shall be clean: but if he purify not himself + the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean. + +04:019:013 Whosoever toucheth the dead body of any man that is dead, and + purifieth not himself, defileth the tabernacle of the LORD; + and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water + of separation was not sprinkled upon him, he shall be unclean; + his uncleanness is yet upon him. + +04:019:014 This is the law, when a man dieth in a tent: all that come + into the tent, and all that is in the tent, shall be unclean + seven days. + +04:019:015 And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it, + is unclean. + +04:019:016 And whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword in the + open fields, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, + shall be unclean seven days. + +04:019:017 And for an unclean person they shall take of the ashes of the + burnt heifer of purification for sin, and running water shall + be put thereto in a vessel: + +04:019:018 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, + and sprinkle it upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and + upon the persons that were there, and upon him that touched a + bone, or one slain, or one dead, or a grave: + +04:019:019 And the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the + third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he + shall purify himself, and wash his clothes, and bathe himself + in water, and shall be clean at even. + +04:019:020 But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify + himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the + congregation, because he hath defiled the sanctuary of the + LORD: the water of separation hath not been sprinkled upon + him; he is unclean. + +04:019:021 And it shall be a perpetual statute unto them, that he that + sprinkleth the water of separation shall wash his clothes; and + he that toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean + until even. + +04:019:022 And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; + and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even. + +04:020:001 Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, + into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people + abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there. + +04:020:002 And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered + themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. + +04:020:003 And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God + that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD! + +04:020:004 And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into + this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? + +04:020:005 And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to + bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or + of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any + water to drink. + +04:020:006 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly + unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they + fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto + them. + +04:020:007 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:020:008 Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and + Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their + eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring + forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the + congregation and their beasts drink. + +04:020:009 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded + him. + +04:020:010 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before + the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we + fetch you water out of this rock? + +04:020:011 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the + rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the + congregation drank, and their beasts also. + +04:020:012 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed + me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, + therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land + which I have given them. + +04:020:013 This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel + strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them. + +04:020:014 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, + Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail + that hath befallen us: + +04:020:015 How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in + Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our + fathers: + +04:020:016 And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent + an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, + we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border: + +04:020:017 Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not + pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither + will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the + king's high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the + left, until we have passed thy borders. + +04:020:018 And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come + out against thee with the sword. + +04:020:019 And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the + high way: and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, then I + will pay for it: I will only, without doing anything else, go + through on my feet. + +04:020:020 And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out + against him with much people, and with a strong hand. + +04:020:021 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: + wherefore Israel turned away from him. + +04:020:022 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, + journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor. + +04:020:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the + coast of the land of Edom, saying, + +04:020:024 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not + enter into the land which I have given unto the children of + Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of + Meribah. + +04:020:025 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount + Hor: + +04:020:026 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his + son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall + die there. + +04:020:027 And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into + mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation. + +04:020:028 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon + Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount: + and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount. + +04:020:029 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they + mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel. + +04:021:001 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, + heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he + fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners. + +04:021:002 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt + indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly + destroy their cities. + +04:021:003 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered + up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their + cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah. + +04:021:004 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, + to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was + much discouraged because of the way. + +04:021:005 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore + have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? + for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our + soul loatheth this light bread. + +04:021:006 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they + bit the people; and much people of Israel died. + +04:021:007 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, + for we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray + unto the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us. And + Moses prayed for the people. + +04:021:008 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and + set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one + that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. + +04:021:009 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and + it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he + beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. + +04:021:010 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth. + +04:021:011 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in + the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrising. + +04:021:012 From thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared. + +04:021:013 From thence they removed, and pitched on the other side of + Arnon, which is in the wilderness that cometh out of the + coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, + between Moab and the Amorites. + +04:021:014 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the LORD, What + he did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon, + +04:021:015 And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the + dwelling of Ar, and lieth upon the border of Moab. + +04:021:016 And from thence they went to Beer: that is the well whereof + the LORD spake unto Moses, Gather the people together, and I + will give them water. + +04:021:017 Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto + it: + +04:021:018 The princes digged the well, the nobles of the people digged + it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves. And + from the wilderness they went to Mattanah: + +04:021:019 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth: + +04:021:020 And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, + to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon. + +04:021:021 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, + saying, + +04:021:022 Let me pass through thy land: we will not turn into the + fields, or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters + of the well: but we will go along by the king's high way, + until we be past thy borders. + +04:021:023 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border: + but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out + against Israel into the wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and + fought against Israel. + +04:021:024 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed + his land from Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the children of + Ammon: for the border of the children of Ammon was strong. + +04:021:025 And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the + cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages + thereof. + +04:021:026 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, + who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all + his land out of his hand, even unto Arnon. + +04:021:027 Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, + let the city of Sihon be built and prepared: + +04:021:028 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city + of Sihon: it hath consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the + high places of Arnon. + +04:021:029 Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh: he + hath given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into + captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites. + +04:021:030 We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and + we have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto + Medeba. + +04:021:031 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. + +04:021:032 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages + thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there. + +04:021:033 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the + king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, + to the battle at Edrei. + +04:021:034 And the LORD said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have + delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; + and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the + Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon. + +04:021:035 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until + there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land. + +04:022:001 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the + plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho. + +04:022:002 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to + the Amorites. + +04:022:003 And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were + many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of + Israel. + +04:022:004 And Moab said unto the elders of Midian, Now shall this + company lick up all that are round about us, as the ox licketh + up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was + king of the Moabites at that time. + +04:022:005 He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to + Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the children of + his people, to call him, saying, Behold, there is a people + come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the earth, + and they abide over against me: + +04:022:006 Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for + they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that + we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: + for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom + thou cursest is cursed. + +04:022:007 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with + the rewards of divination in their hand; and they came unto + Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak. + +04:022:008 And he said unto them, Lodge here this night, and I will bring + you word again, as the LORD shall speak unto me: and the + princes of Moab abode with Balaam. + +04:022:009 And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with + thee? + +04:022:010 And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of + Moab, hath sent unto me, saying, + +04:022:011 Behold, there is a people come out of Egypt, which covereth + the face of the earth: come now, curse me them; peradventure I + shall be able to overcome them, and drive them out. + +04:022:012 And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou + shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed. + +04:022:013 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes + of Balak, Get you into your land: for the LORD refuseth to + give me leave to go with you. + +04:022:014 And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and + said, Balaam refuseth to come with us. + +04:022:015 And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable + than they. + +04:022:016 And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the + son of Zippor, Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from + coming unto me: + +04:022:017 For I will promote thee unto very great honour, and I will do + whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, + curse me this people. + +04:022:018 And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If + Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I + cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or + more. + +04:022:019 Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that + I may know what the LORD will say unto me more. + +04:022:020 And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him, If the + men come to call thee, rise up, and go with them; but yet the + word which I shall say unto thee, that shalt thou do. + +04:022:021 And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and + went with the princes of Moab. + +04:022:022 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of + the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he + was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him. + +04:022:023 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and + his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of + the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to + turn her into the way. + +04:022:024 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a + wall being on this side, and a wall on that side. + +04:022:025 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself + unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and + he smote her again. + +04:022:026 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow + place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to + the left. + +04:022:027 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down + under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the + ass with a staff. + +04:022:028 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto + Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me + these three times? + +04:022:029 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I + would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill + thee. + +04:022:030 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which + thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I + ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay. + +04:022:031 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel + of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his + hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face. + +04:022:032 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou + smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to + withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me: + +04:022:033 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: + unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain + thee, and saved her alive. + +04:022:034 And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for + I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me: now + therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back again. + +04:022:035 And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam, Go with the men: + but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that thou + shalt speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak. + +04:022:036 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet + him unto a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, + which is in the utmost coast. + +04:022:037 And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee + to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able + indeed to promote thee to honour? + +04:022:038 And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I + now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God + putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak. + +04:022:039 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjathhuzoth. + +04:022:040 And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to + the princes that were with him. + +04:022:041 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and + brought him up into the high places of Baal, that thence he + might see the utmost part of the people. + +04:023:001 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and + prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams. + +04:023:002 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam + offered on every altar a bullock and a ram. + +04:023:003 And Balaam said unto Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I + will go: peradventure the LORD will come to meet me: and + whatsoever he sheweth me I will tell thee. And he went to an + high place. + +04:023:004 And God met Balaam: and he said unto him, I have prepared + seven altars, and I have offered upon every altar a bullock + and a ram. + +04:023:005 And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return + unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak. + +04:023:006 And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt + sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab. + +04:023:007 And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king of Moab + hath brought me from Aram, out of the mountains of the east, + saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel. + +04:023:008 How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I + defy, whom the LORD hath not defied? + +04:023:009 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I + behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be + reckoned among the nations. + +04:023:010 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth + part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let + my last end be like his! + +04:023:011 And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I + took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast + blessed them altogether. + +04:023:012 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that + which the LORD hath put in my mouth? + +04:023:013 And Balak said unto him, Come, I pray thee, with me unto + another place, from whence thou mayest see them: thou shalt + see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all: + and curse me them from thence. + +04:023:014 And he brought him into the field of Zophim, to the top of + Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a + ram on every altar. + +04:023:015 And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, + while I meet the LORD yonder. + +04:023:016 And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and + said, Go again unto Balak, and say thus. + +04:023:017 And when he came to him, behold, he stood by his burnt + offering, and the princes of Moab with him. And Balak said + unto him, What hath the LORD spoken? + +04:023:018 And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and + hear; hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor: + +04:023:019 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, + that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? + or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? + +04:023:020 Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath + blessed; and I cannot reverse it. + +04:023:021 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen + perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the + shout of a king is among them. + +04:023:022 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength + of an unicorn. + +04:023:023 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there + any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall + be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought! + +04:023:024 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up + himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of + the prey, and drink the blood of the slain. + +04:023:025 And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor + bless them at all. + +04:023:026 But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, + saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do? + +04:023:027 And Balak said unto Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will bring + thee unto another place; peradventure it will please God that + thou mayest curse me them from thence. + +04:023:028 And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh + toward Jeshimon. + +04:023:029 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and + prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams. + +04:023:030 And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a + ram on every altar. + +04:024:001 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, + he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but + he set his face toward the wilderness. + +04:024:002 And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in + his tents according to their tribes; and the spirit of God + came upon him. + +04:024:003 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor + hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: + +04:024:004 He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the + vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his + eyes open: + +04:024:005 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O + Israel! + +04:024:006 As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the + river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath + planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters. + +04:024:007 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall + be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and + his kingdom shall be exalted. + +04:024:008 God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the + strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his + enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through + with his arrows. + +04:024:009 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who + shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and + cursed is he that curseth thee. + +04:024:010 And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his + hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to + curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed + them these three times. + +04:024:011 Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote + thee unto great honour; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back + from honour. + +04:024:012 And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers + which thou sentest unto me, saying, + +04:024:013 If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I + cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD, to do either + good or bad of mine own mind; but what the LORD saith, that + will I speak? + +04:024:014 And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I + will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in + the latter days. + +04:024:015 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor + hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: + +04:024:016 He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the + knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the + Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open: + +04:024:017 I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not + nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre + shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, + and destroy all the children of Sheth. + +04:024:018 And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a + possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly. + +04:024:019 Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall + destroy him that remaineth of the city. + +04:024:020 And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and + said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end + shall be that he perish for ever. + +04:024:021 And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and + said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest + in a rock. + +04:024:022 Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall + carry thee away captive. + +04:024:023 And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live + when God doeth this! + +04:024:024 And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall + afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall + perish for ever. + +04:024:025 And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and + Balak also went his way. + +04:025:001 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit + whoredom with the daughters of Moab. + +04:025:002 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: + and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods. + +04:025:003 And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the + LORD was kindled against Israel. + +04:025:004 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the + people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that + the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel. + +04:025:005 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one + his men that were joined unto Baalpeor. + +04:025:006 And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought + unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, + and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of + Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of + the congregation. + +04:025:007 And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the + priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and + took a javelin in his hand; + +04:025:008 And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust + both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through + her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of + Israel. + +04:025:009 And those that died in the plague were twenty and four + thousand. + +04:025:010 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:025:011 Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, + hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while + he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the + children of Israel in my jealousy. + +04:025:012 Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace: + +04:025:013 And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the + covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous + for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel. + +04:025:014 Now the name of the Israelite that was slain, even that was + slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, + a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites. + +04:025:015 And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was + Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of + a chief house in Midian. + +04:025:016 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:025:017 Vex the Midianites, and smite them: + +04:025:018 For they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have + beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of + Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, which + was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake. + +04:026:001 And it came to pass after the plague, that the LORD spake unto + Moses and unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying, + +04:026:002 Take the sum of all the congregation of the children of + Israel, from twenty years old and upward, throughout their + fathers' house, all that are able to go to war in Israel. + +04:026:003 And Moses and Eleazar the priest spake with them in the plains + of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying, + +04:026:004 Take the sum of the people, from twenty years old and upward; + as the LORD commanded Moses and the children of Israel, which + went forth out of the land of Egypt. + +04:026:005 Reuben, the eldest son of Israel: the children of Reuben; + Hanoch, of whom cometh the family of the Hanochites: of Pallu, + the family of the Palluites: + +04:026:006 Of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites: of Carmi, the family + of the Carmites. + +04:026:007 These are the families of the Reubenites: and they that were + numbered of them were forty and three thousand and seven + hundred and thirty. + +04:026:008 And the sons of Pallu; Eliab. + +04:026:009 And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram.

and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father + to pass unto them. + +04:027:008 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a + man die, and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance + to pass unto his daughter. + +04:027:009 And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance + unto his brethren. + +04:027:010 And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance + unto his father's brethren. + +04:027:011 And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his + inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his + family, and he shall possess it: and it shall be unto the + children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD + commanded Moses. + +04:027:012 And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount + Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children + of Israel. + +04:027:013 And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto + thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered. + +04:027:014 For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, + in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water + before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in + the wilderness of Zin. + +04:027:015 And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying, + +04:027:016 Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man + over the congregation, + +04:027:017 Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, + and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that + the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no + shepherd. + +04:027:018 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, + a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him; + +04:027:019 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the + congregation; and give him a charge in their sight. + +04:027:020 And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the + congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient. + +04:027:021 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask + counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at + his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come + in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all + the congregation. + +04:027:022 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, + and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the + congregation: + +04:027:023 And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the + LORD commanded by the hand of Moses. + +04:028:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:028:002 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My + offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a + sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in + their due season. + +04:028:003 And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by + fire which ye shall offer unto the LORD; two lambs of the + first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt + offering. + +04:028:004 The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other + lamb shalt thou offer at even; + +04:028:005 And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, + mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil. + +04:028:006 It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount + Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the + LORD. + +04:028:007 And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an + hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the + strong wine to be poured unto the LORD for a drink offering. + +04:028:008 And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even: as the meat + offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof, + thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet + savour unto the LORD. + +04:028:009 And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without + spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, + mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof: + +04:028:010 This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the + continual burnt offering, and his drink offering. + +04:028:011 And in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer a burnt + offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram, seven + lambs of the first year without spot; + +04:028:012 And three tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled + with oil, for one bullock; and two tenth deals of flour for a + meat offering, mingled with oil, for one ram; + +04:028:013 And a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil for a meat + offering unto one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet + savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. + +04:028:014 And their drink offerings shall be half an hin of wine unto a + bullock, and the third part of an hin unto a ram, and a fourth + part of an hin unto a lamb: this is the burnt offering of + every month throughout the months of the year. + +04:028:015 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering unto the LORD + shall be offered, beside the continual burnt offering, and his + drink offering. + +04:028:016 And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover + of the LORD. + +04:028:017 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven + days shall unleavened bread be eaten. + +04:028:018 In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no + manner of servile work therein: + +04:028:019 But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt + offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram, and + seven lambs of the first year: they shall be unto you without + blemish: + +04:028:020 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil: + three tenth deals shall ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth + deals for a ram; + +04:028:021 A several tenth deal shalt thou offer for every lamb, + throughout the seven lambs: + +04:028:022 And one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you. + +04:028:023 Ye shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning, + which is for a continual burnt offering. + +04:028:024 After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven + days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet + savour unto the LORD: it shall be offered beside the continual + burnt offering, and his drink offering. + +04:028:025 And on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye + shall do no servile work. + +04:028:026 Also in the day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat + offering unto the LORD, after your weeks be out, ye shall have + an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work: + +04:028:027 But ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savour unto + the LORD;

ye shall do no servile work: + it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you. + +04:029:002 And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savour unto + the LORD; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the + first year without blemish: + +04:029:003 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, + three tenth deals for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a + ram, + +04:029:004 And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: + +04:029:005 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering, to make an + atonement for you: + +04:029:006 Beside the burnt offering of the month, and his meat offering, + and the daily burnt offering, and his meat offering, and their + drink offerings, according unto their manner, for a sweet + savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD. + +04:029:007 And ye shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month an + holy convocation; and ye shall afflict your souls: ye shall + not do any work therein: + +04:029:008 But ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the LORD for a sweet + savour; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the + first year; they shall be unto you without blemish: + +04:029:009 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, + three tenth deals to a bullock, and two tenth deals to one + ram, + +04:029:010 A several tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: + +04:029:011 One kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the sin + offering of atonement, and the continual burnt offering, and + the meat offering of it, and their drink offerings. + +04:029:012 And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month ye shall have an + holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work, and ye shall + keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: + +04:029:013 And ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, + of a sweet savour unto the LORD; thirteen young bullocks, two + rams, and fourteen lambs of the first year; they shall be + without blemish: + +04:029:014 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, + three tenth deals unto every bullock of the thirteen bullocks, + two tenth deals to each ram of the two rams, + +04:029:015 And a several tenth deal to each lamb of the fourteen lambs: + +04:029:016 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the + continual burnt offering, his meat offering, and his drink + offering. + +04:029:017 And on the second day ye shall offer twelve young bullocks, + two rams, fourteen lambs of the first year without spot: + +04:029:018 And their meat offering and their drink offerings for the + bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, shall be according + to their number, after the manner: + +04:029:019 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering; beside the + continual burnt offering, and the meat offering thereof, and + their drink offerings. + +04:029:020 And on the third day eleven bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs + of the first year without blemish;

beside the continual burnt + offering, his meat offering, and his drink offering. + +04:029:035 On the eighth day ye shall have a solemn assembly: ye shall do + no servile work therein: + +04:029:036 But ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, + of a sweet savour unto the LORD: one bullock, one ram, seven + lambs of the first year without blemish: + +04:029:037 Their meat offering and their drink offerings for the bullock, + for the ram, and for the lambs, shall be according to their + number, after the manner: + +04:029:038 And one goat for a sin offering; beside the continual burnt + offering, and his meat offering, and his drink offering. + +04:029:039 These things ye shall do unto the LORD in your set feasts, + beside your vows, and your freewill offerings, for your burnt + offerings, and for your meat offerings, and for your drink + offerings, and for your peace offerings. + +04:029:040 And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that + the LORD commanded Moses. + +04:030:001 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the + children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD + hath commanded. + +04:030:002 If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his + soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do + according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth. + +04:030:003 If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a + bond, being in her father's house in her youth; + +04:030:004 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath + bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her; + then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she + hath bound her soul shall stand. + +04:030:005 But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not + any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her + soul, shall stand: and the LORD shall forgive her, because her + father disallowed her. + +04:030:006 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered + ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul; + +04:030:007 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day + that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds + wherewith she bound her soul shall stand. + +04:030:008 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; + then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she + uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none + effect: and the LORD shall forgive her. + +04:030:009 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, + wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against + her. + +04:030:010 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by + a bond with an oath; + +04:030:011 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and + disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every + bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand. + +04:030:012 But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he + heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips + concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall + not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD shall + forgive her. + +04:030:013 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her + husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void. + +04:030:014 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day + to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, + which are upon her: he confirmeth them, because he held his + peace at her in the day that he heard them. + +04:030:015 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath + heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity. + +04:030:016 These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, + between a man and his wife, between the father and his + daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's house. + +04:031:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:031:002 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward + shalt thou be gathered unto thy people. + +04:031:003 And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of + yourselves unto the war, and let them go against the + Midianites, and avenge the LORD of Midian. + +04:031:004 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of + Israel, shall ye send to the war. + +04:031:005 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a + thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. + +04:031:006 And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, + them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, + with the holy instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his + hand. + +04:031:007 And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded + Moses; and they slew all the males. + +04:031:008 And they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of them + that were slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and + Reba, five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they + slew with the sword. + +04:031:009 And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian + captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all + their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods. + +04:031:010 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all + their goodly castles, with fire. + +04:031:011 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and + of beasts. + +04:031:012 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, + unto Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation + of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of + Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho. + +04:031:013 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the + congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp. + +04:031:014 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the + captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which + came from the battle. + +04:031:015 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? + +04:031:016 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the + counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the + matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation + of the LORD. + +04:031:017 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill + every woman that hath known man by lying with him. + +04:031:018 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying + with him, keep alive for yourselves. + +04:031:019 And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath + killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, + purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and + on the seventh day. + +04:031:020 And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, + and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood. + +04:031:021 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to + the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD + commanded Moses; + +04:031:022 Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, + and the lead, + +04:031:023 Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go + through the fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall + be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth + not the fire ye shall make go through the water. + +04:031:024 And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye + shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp. + +04:031:025 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:031:026 Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of + beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of + the congregation: + +04:031:027 And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the + war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the + congregation: + +04:031:028 And levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which went + out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, + and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep: + +04:031:029 Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, + for an heave offering of the LORD. + +04:031:030 And of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one + portion of fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, + and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them unto + the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of the + LORD. + +04:031:031 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded + Moses. + +04:031:032 And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war + had caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and + five thousand sheep, + +04:031:033 And threescore and twelve thousand beeves, + +04:031:034 And threescore and one thousand asses, + +04:031:035 And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had + not known man by lying with him. + +04:031:036 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to + war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty + thousand and five hundred sheep: + +04:031:037 And the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and + threescore and fifteen. + +04:031:038 And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the + LORD's tribute was threescore and twelve. + +04:031:039 And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which + the LORD's tribute was threescore and one. + +04:031:040 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's + tribute was thirty and two persons. + +04:031:041 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave + offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded + Moses. + +04:031:042 And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from + the men that warred, + +04:031:043 (Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three + hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and + five hundred sheep, + +04:031:044 And thirty and six thousand beeves, + +04:031:045 And thirty thousand asses and five hundred, + +04:031:046 And sixteen thousand persons;) + +04:031:047 Even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion + of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the + Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; + as the LORD commanded Moses. + +04:031:048 And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the + captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near + unto Moses: + +04:031:049 And they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of + the men of war which are under our charge, and there lacketh + not one man of us. + +04:031:050 We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every + man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, + rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our + souls before the LORD. + +04:031:051 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even + all wrought jewels. + +04:031:052 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the + LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of + hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty + shekels. + +04:031:053 (For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.) + +04:031:054 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains + of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the + tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the + children of Israel before the LORD. + +04:032:001 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very + great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of + Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that, behold, the place was a + place for cattle; + +04:032:002 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake + unto Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of + the congregation, saying, + +04:032:003 Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and + Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon, + +04:032:004 Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation + of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle: + +04:032:005 Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let + this land be given unto thy servants for a possession, and + bring us not over Jordan. + +04:032:006 And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of + Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here? + +04:032:007 And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of + Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given + them? + +04:032:008 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to + see the land. + +04:032:009 For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the + land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, + that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given + them. + +04:032:010 And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, + saying, + +04:032:011 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty + years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto + Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not + wholly followed me: + +04:032:012 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the + son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD. + +04:032:013 And the LORD's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made + them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the + generation, that had done evil in the sight of the LORD, was + consumed. + +04:032:014 And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, an + increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the + LORD toward Israel. + +04:032:015 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave + them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people. + +04:032:016 And they came near unto him, and said, We will build + sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little + ones: + +04:032:017 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of + Israel, until we have brought them unto their place: and our + little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the + inhabitants of the land. + +04:032:018 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of + Israel have inherited every man his inheritance. + +04:032:019 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or + forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side + Jordan eastward. + +04:032:020 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will + go armed before the LORD to war, + +04:032:021 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, + until he hath driven out his enemies from before him, + +04:032:022 And the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye + shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before + Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the + LORD. + +04:032:023 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the + LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out. + +04:032:024 Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your + sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth. + +04:032:025 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto + Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth. + +04:032:026 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, + shall be there in the cities of Gilead: + +04:032:027 But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, + before the Lord to battle, as my lord saith. + +04:032:028 So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and + Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of + the children of Israel: + +04:032:029 And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the + children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man + armed to battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be + subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead + for a possession: + +04:032:030 But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have + possessions among you in the land of Canaan. + +04:032:031 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, + saying, As the LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we + do. + +04:032:032 We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of + Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side + Jordan may be our's. + +04:032:033 And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to + the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh + the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, + and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the + cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country + round about. + +04:032:034 And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer, + +04:032:035 And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah, + +04:032:036 And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for + sheep. + +04:032:037 And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and + Kirjathaim, + +04:032:038 And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and + Shibmah: and gave other names unto the cities which they + builded. + +04:032:039 And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, + and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it. + +04:032:040 And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh;

+ +04:033:052 Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from + before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all + their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high + places: + +04:033:053 And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell + therein: for I have given you the land to possess it. + +04:033:054 And ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among + your families: and to the more ye shall give the more + inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give the less + inheritance: every man's inheritance shall be in the place + where his lot falleth; according to the tribes of your fathers + ye shall inherit. + +04:033:055 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from + before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye + let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in + your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell. + +04:033:056 Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I + thought to do unto them. + +04:034:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:034:002 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye + come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land that shall + fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan with + the coasts thereof:) + +04:034:003 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin + along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the + outmost coast of the salt sea eastward: + +04:034:004 And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of + Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin: and the going forth thereof + shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea, and shall go on to + Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon: + +04:034:005 And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river + of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea. + +04:034:006 And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great + sea for a border: this shall be your west border. + +04:034:007 And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye + shall point out for you mount Hor: + +04:034:008 From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the + entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall + be to Zedad: + +04:034:009 And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of + it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border. + +04:034:010 And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to + Shepham: + +04:034:011 And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the + east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall + reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward: + +04:034:012 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of + it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the + coasts thereof round about. + +04:034:013 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is + the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD + commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe: + +04:034:014 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house + of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad + according to the house of their fathers, have received their + inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received + their inheritance: + +04:034:015 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their + inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward + the sunrising. + +04:034:016 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:034:017 These are the names of the men which shall divide the land + unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. + +04:034:018 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the + land by inheritance. + +04:034:019 And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, + Caleb the son of Jephunneh. + +04:034:020 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of + Ammihud. + +04:034:021 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. + +04:034:022 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the + son of Jogli. + +04:034:023 The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the + children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod. + +04:034:024 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel + the son of Shiphtan. + +04:034:025 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, + Elizaphan the son of Parnach. + +04:034:026 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, + Paltiel the son of Azzan. + +04:034:027 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud + the son of Shelomi. + +04:034:028 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, + Pedahel the son of Ammihud. + +04:034:029 These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the + inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan. + +04:035:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan + near Jericho, saying, + +04:035:002 Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the + Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell + in; and ye shall give also unto the Levites suburbs for the + cities round about them. + +04:035:003 And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of + them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for + all their beasts. + +04:035:004 And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the + Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a + thousand cubits round about. + +04:035:005 And ye shall measure from without the city on the east side + two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand + cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the + north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in the + midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities. + +04:035:006 And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites + there shall be six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint + for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them ye + shall add forty and two cities. + +04:035:007 So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be + forty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs. + +04:035:008 And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession + of the children of Israel: from them that have many ye shall + give many; but from them that have few ye shall give few: + every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according + to his inheritance which he inheriteth. + +04:035:009 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, + +04:035:010 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye + be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan; + +04:035:011 Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for + you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any + person at unawares. + +04:035:012 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; + that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the + congregation in judgment. + +04:035:013 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye + have for refuge. + +04:035:014 Ye shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three + cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan, which shall be + cities of refuge. + +04:035:015 These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of + Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among + them: that every one that killeth any person unawares may flee + thither. + +04:035:016 And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he + die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to + death. + +04:035:017 And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may + die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely + be put to death. + +04:035:018 Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he + may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall + surely be put to death. + +04:035:019 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he + meeteth him, he shall slay him. + +04:035:020 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of + wait, that he die; + +04:035:021 Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that + smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: + the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meeteth + him. + +04:035:022 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast + upon him any thing without laying of wait, + +04:035:023 Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, + and cast it upon him, that he die, and was not his enemy, + neither sought his harm: + +04:035:024 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the + revenger of blood according to these judgments: + +04:035:025 And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand + of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore + him to the city of his refuge, whither he was fled: and he + shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was + anointed with the holy oil. + +04:035:026 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of + the city of his refuge, whither he was fled; + +04:035:027 And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the + city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; + he shall not be guilty of blood: + +04:035:028 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge + until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the + high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his + possession. + +04:035:029 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you + throughout your generations in all your dwellings. + +04:035:030 Whoso killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death + by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify + against any person to cause him to die. + +04:035:031 Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a + murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put + to death. + +04:035:032 And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the + city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the + land, until the death of the priest. + +04:035:033 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it + defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the + blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed + it. + +04:035:034 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein + I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel. + +04:036:001 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of + Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the + families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spake before + Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the + children of Israel: + +04:036:002 And they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for + an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord + was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of + Zelophehad our brother unto his daughters. + +04:036:003 And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes + of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be + taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to + the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so + shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance. + +04:036:004 And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then + shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the + tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance + be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our + fathers. + +04:036:005 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the + word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath + said well. + +04:036:006 This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning the + daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they + think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father + shall they marry. + +04:036:007 So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel remove + from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of Israel + shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his + fathers. + +04:036:008 And every daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any + tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife unto one of the + family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel + may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers. + +04:036:009 Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another + tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel + shall keep himself to his own inheritance. + +04:036:010 Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of + Zelophehad: + +04:036:011 For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the + daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their father's + brothers' sons: + +04:036:012 And they were married into the families of the sons of + Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in + the tribe of the family of their father. + +04:036:013 These are the commandments and the judgments, which the LORD + commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel in + the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho. + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE BIBLE, KING JAMES, BOOK 4 *** + +********* This file should be named 8004.txt or 8004.zip ********** + +This eBook was produced by David Widger +See above the credits to previous producers of this text. + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
