Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint for them each one to his service and to his burden, ²⁰ but they shall not go in to see the sanctuary even for a moment, lest they die. ²¹ And LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ²² Take the sum of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers' houses, by their families, ²³ from thirty years old and upward until fifty years old thou shall number them, all who enter in to wait upon the service, to do the work in the tent of meeting. ²⁴ This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in bearing burdens: ²⁵ They shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tent of meeting, its covering, and the covering of certain skin that is above upon it, and the screen for the door of the tent of meeting, ²⁶ and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar round about, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and whatever shall be done with them; therein they shall serve. ²⁷ At the commandment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burden, and in all their service. And ye shall appoint to those in charge all their burden. ²⁸ This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting. And their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. ²⁹ As for the sons of Merari, thou shall number them by their families, by their fathers' houses. ³⁰ From thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old thou shall number them, each man who enters upon the service, to do the work of the tent of meeting. ³¹ And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tent of meeting: the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars of it, and the pillars of it, and the sockets of it, ³² and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pegs, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service. And ye shall appoint the instruments of the charge of their burden by name. ³³ This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tent of meeting, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. ³⁴ And Moses and Aaron and the rulers of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites by their families, and by their fathers' houses, ³⁵ from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, each man who entered upon the service, for work in the tent of meeting. ³⁶ And those who were numbered of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty. ³⁷ These are those who were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all who served in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of LORD by Moses. ³⁸ And those who were numbered of the sons of Gershon, their families, and by their fathers' houses, ³⁹ from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, each man who entered upon the service, for work in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁰ even those who were numbered of them, by their families, by their fathers' houses, were two thousand and six hundred and thirty. ⁴¹ These are those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, all who served in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of LORD. ⁴² And those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by their fathers' houses, ⁴³ from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, each man who entered upon the service, for work in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁴ even those who were numbered of them by their families, were three thousand and two hundred. ⁴⁵ These are those who were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of LORD by Moses. ⁴⁶ All those who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the rulers of Israel numbered, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, ⁴⁷ from thirty years old and upward even to fifty years old, each man who entered in to do the work of service, and the work of bearing burdens in the tent of meeting, ⁴⁸ even those who were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred and eighty. ⁴⁹ According to the commandment of LORD they were numbered by Moses, each man according to his service, and according to his burden.

¹ And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the sons of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of LORD. ² And the house which king Solomon built for LORD, the length of it was sixty cubits, and the breadth of it twenty, and the height of it thirty cubits, ³ and the porch in front of the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, and ten cubits was the breadth of it in front of the house. ⁴ And he made windows of fixed lattice-work for the house. ⁵ And against the wall of the house he built stories round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle. And he made side-chambers round about. ⁶ The lowest story was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad, for on the outside he made offsets in the wall of the house round about, that the beams should not be fastened in the walls of the house. ⁷ And the house, when it was being built, was built of stone made ready at the quarry. And there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was being built. ⁸ The door for the middle side-chambers was in the right side of the house. And they went up by winding stairs into the middle story, and out of the middle into the third.

¹ Then Solomon began to build the house of LORD at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where LORD appeared to David his father, which he made ready in the place that David had appointed, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. ² And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign. ³ Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. ⁴ And the porch that was before the house, the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height a hundred and twenty. And he overlaid it inside with pure gold.

⁹ Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. ¹⁰ For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow, but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and has not another to lift him up. ¹¹ Again, if two lie together, then they have warmth, but how can one be warm alone? ¹² And if a man prevails against him who is alone, two shall withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

¹ Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east. ² And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. And his voice was like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with his glory. ³ And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city. And the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face. ⁴ And the glory of LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose view is toward the east. ⁵ And the Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court, and, behold, the glory of LORD filled the house. ⁶ And I heard speaking to me out of the house, and a man stood by me. ⁷ And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel forever. And the house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places, ⁸ in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their door-post beside my door-post, and there was but the wall between me and them. And they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed. Therefore I have consumed them in my anger. ⁹ Now let them put away their whoredom, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever. ¹⁰ Thou, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities, and let them measure the pattern. ¹¹ And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and the fashion of it, and the exits of it, and the entrances of it, and all the forms of it, and all the ordinances of it, and all the forms of it, and all the laws of it. And write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form of it, and all the ordinances of it, and do them. ¹² This is the law of the house. Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit of it round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house. ¹³ And these are the measures of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a handbreadth). The bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border of it by the edge of it round about a span. And this shall be the base of the altar. ¹⁴ And from the bottom upon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit. And from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit. ¹⁵ And the upper altar shall be four cubits. And from the altar hearth and upward there shall be four horns. ¹⁶ And the altar hearth shall be twelve long by twelve broad, square in the four sides of it. ¹⁷ And the ledge shall be fourteen long by fourteen broad in the four sides of it. And the border about it shall be half a cubit, and the bottom of it shall be a cubit round about. And the steps of it shall look toward the east. ¹⁸ And he said to me, Son of man, thus says the lord LORD: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings on it, and to sprinkle blood on it. ¹⁹ Thou shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the seed of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says the lord LORD, a young bullock for a sin offering. ²⁰ And thou shall take of the blood of it, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and upon the border round about. Thus thou shall cleanse it and make atonement for it. ²¹ Thou shall also take the bullock of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary. ²² And on the second day thou shall offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin offering. And they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock. ²³ When thou have made an end of cleansing it, thou shall offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish. ²⁴ And thou shall bring them near before LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to LORD. ²⁵ Seven days thou shall prepare each day a goat for a sin offering. They shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish. ²⁶ Seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it. So they shall consecrate it. ²⁷ And when they have accomplished the days, it shall be that upon the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings. And I will accept you, says the lord LORD.

It is holy, and it shall be holy to you. ³³ Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it upon a stranger, he shall be cut off from his people. ³⁴ And LORD said to Moses, Take to thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense, of each shall there be a like weight. ³⁵ And thou shall make of it incense, a perfume after the art of the perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy. ³⁶ And thou shall beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with thee. It shall be to you most holy. ³⁷ And the incense which thou shall make, ye shall not make for yourselves according to the composition of it. It shall be to thee holy for LORD. ³⁸ Whoever shall make like that, to smell of it, he shall be cut off from his people.

²⁹ And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure incense of sweet spices, after the art of the perfumer.

⁸ Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. ⁹ Six days thou shall labor, and do all thy work, ¹⁰ but the seventh day is a sabbath to LORD thy God. Thou shall not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates, ¹¹ for in six days LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

¹⁷ It is a sign between me and the sons of Israel forever. For in six days LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

³ Every man shall fear his mother and his father. And ye shall keep my sabbaths. I am LORD your God.

³⁰ Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am LORD.

⁸ Thou shall sanctify him therefore, for he offers the bread of thy God. He shall be holy to thee, for I LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.

³ Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation. Ye shall do no manner of work. It is a sabbath to LORD in all your dwellings.

² Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath to LORD.

² Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am LORD.

¹⁴ and made known to them thy holy sabbath, and commanded them commandments, and statutes, and a law, by Moses thy servant.

¹² Moreover I also gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am LORD who sanctifies them.

²⁰ and hallow my sabbaths, and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am LORD your God.

²⁸ And the nations shall know that I am LORD, who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.

²⁴ And in a controversy they shall stand to judge. They shall judge it according to my ordinances. And they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts, and they shall hallow my sabbaths.

¹⁷ Sanctify them in thy truth. Thy word is truth.

¹⁹ And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they may also themselves be sanctified in truth.

²³ And may the God of peace himself sanctify you thoroughly. And may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, blamelessly at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹ Jude, a bondman of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called, sanctified in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:

⁸ Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

² Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of solemn rest to LORD. Whoever does any work in it shall be put to death. ³ Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day.

³² And while the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks upon the sabbath day. ³³ And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation. ³⁴ And they put him in ward, because it had not been declared what should be done to him. ³⁵ And LORD said to Moses, The man shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp. ³⁶ And all the congregation brought him outside the camp, and stoned him to death with stones, as LORD commanded Moses.

¹² Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as LORD thy God commanded thee. ¹³ Six days thou shall labor, and do all thy work, ¹⁴ but the seventh day is a sabbath to LORD thy God: thou shall not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thy donkey, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates, that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou. ¹⁵ And thou shall remember that thou were a servant in the land of Egypt, and LORD thy God brought thee out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm, therefore LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.

² Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil. ³ Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to LORD, speak, saying, LORD will surely separate me from his people, nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. ⁴ For thus says LORD of the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast my covenant: ⁵ To them I will give in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters. I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. ⁶ Also the foreigners who join themselves to LORD, to minister to him, and to love the name of LORD, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant,

¹³ If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day, and call the sabbath a delight, and the holy of LORD honorable, and shall honor it, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: ¹⁴ then thou shall delight thyself in LORD, and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father. For the mouth of LORD has spoken it.

¹² Moreover I also gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am LORD who sanctifies them. ¹³ But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. They did not walk in my statutes, and they rejected my ordinances, which if a man keeps, he shall live in them. And they greatly profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

¹⁶ because they rejected my ordinances, and did not walk in my statutes, and profaned my sabbaths, for their heart went after their idols.

²¹ But the sons rebelled against me. They did not walk in my statutes, nor kept my ordinances to do them, which if a man does, he shall live in them. They profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.

²⁴ because they had not executed my ordinances, but had rejected my statutes, and had profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.

² And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

²⁶ Six days ye shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the sabbath, there shall be none in it.

²¹ Six days thou shall work, but on the seventh day thou shall rest; in plowing time and in harvest thou shall rest.

² Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a sabbath of solemn rest to LORD. Whoever does any work in it shall be put to death.

³² It shall be to you a sabbath of solemn rest, and ye shall afflict your souls. In the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, ye shall keep your sabbath.

²⁴ And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken to me, says LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but to hallow the sabbath day, to do no work in it, ²⁵ then there shall enter in by the gates of this city kings and rulers sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their rulers, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And this city shall remain forever. ²⁶ And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and from the hill-country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing things of thanksgiving, to the house of LORD. ²⁷ But if ye will not hearken to me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in the gates of it, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.

¹ Thus says the lord LORD: The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days, but on the sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

¹⁴ And having responded, the synagogue-ruler, being indignant because Jesus healed on the sabbath, answered and said to the multitude, There are six days in which he ought to work. Therefore coming in these, be healed, and not on the day of the sabbath.

⁵⁶ And having returned, they prepared spices and ointments. And they indeed rested on the sabbath according to the commandment.

⁹ There remains therefore a sabbath for the people of God.

¹³ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.

¹¹ And ye shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be a sign of a covenant between me and you.

⁵ They shall inquire concerning Zion with their faces toward it, saying, Come ye, and join yourselves to LORD in an everlasting covenant that shall not be forgotten.

³¹ And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

² And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. ³ And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, because in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made.

¹³ Speak thou also to the sons of Israel, saying, Truly ye shall keep my sabbaths, for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that ye may know that I am LORD who sanctifies you.

⁷ when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

³¹ Let the glory of LORD endure forever. Let LORD rejoice in his works,

⁴¹ Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good. And I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.

³ For those who believe enter into that rest, just as he said, So I swore in my wrath, They will not enter into my rest, although the works occurred from the foundation of the world. ⁴ For he spoke somewhere about the seventh this way, And God rested during the seventh day from all his works,

¹⁰ For a man who has entered into his rest, he has also rested from his works, as God did from his own.

¹⁹ Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God. And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as LORD had spoken.

¹² And LORD said to Moses, Come up to me onto the mount, and be there, and I will give thee the tablets of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou may teach them.

¹⁸ And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up onto the mount. And Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.

¹⁵ And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand, tablets that were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written. ¹⁶ And the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved upon the tablets.

¹ And LORD said to Moses, Hew thee two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write upon the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which thou broke. ² And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me on the top of the mount. ³ And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount, neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount. ⁴ And he hewed two tablets of stone like the first. And Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to mount Sinai, as LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two tablets of stone.

²⁸ And he was there with LORD forty days and forty nights. He neither ate bread, nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. ²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.

¹³ And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even the ten commandments. And he wrote them upon two tablets of stone.

And on them was according to all the words, which LORD spoke with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly. ¹¹ And it came to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, that LORD gave me the two tablets of stone, even the tablets of the covenant.

³³ But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says LORD: I will give my laws into their mind, and I will write them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

²⁸ But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come near you.

²⁰ But if by a finger of God I cast out the demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

³ being seen that ye are a letter of Christ, administered by us, written not in ink, but in the Spirit of the living God, not in stony tablets, but in fleshly tablets, in hearts.

⁷ But if the administration of death in writings engraved on stones occurred in glory, so that the sons of Israel could not gaze upon the face of Moses because of the fading glory of his countenance, ⁸ how will the administration of the Spirit not be more in glory?
