¹ In those days there was no king in Israel, and in those days the Danites were looking for a heritage for themselves, to be their living-place; for up to that time no distribution of land had been made to them among the tribes of Israel. ² So the children of Dan sent five men from among their number, strong men, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to take a look at the land and make a search through it; and they said to them, Go and make a search through the land; and they came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, where they made a stop for the night.

² So the children of Dan sent five men from among their number, strong men, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to take a look at the land and make a search through it; and they said to them, Go and make a search through the land; and they came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, where they made a stop for the night. ³ When they were near the house of Micah, hearing a voice which was not strange to them, that of the young Levite, they went out of their road to his place, and said to him, How did you come here? and what are you doing in this place? and why are you here? ⁴ And he said to them, This is what Micah did for me, and he gave me payment and I became his priest. ⁵ Then they said, Do get directions from God for us, to see if the journey on which we are going will have a good outcome. ⁶ And the priest said to them, Go in peace: your way is guided by the Lord. ⁷ Then the five men went on their way and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, living without thought of danger, like the Zidonians, quiet and safe; for they had everything on earth for their needs, and they were far from the Zidonians and had no business with Aram. ⁸ So they came back to their brothers in Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brothers said to them, What news have you? ⁹ And they said, Up! and let us go against Laish; for we have seen the land, and it is very good: why are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to go in and take the land for your heritage. ¹⁰ When you come there you will come to a people living without thought of danger; and the land is wide, and God has given it into your hands: a place where there is everything on earth for man's needs. ¹¹ So six hundred men of the Danites from Zorah and Eshtaol went out armed with instruments of war. ¹² And they went up and put up their tents in Kiriath-jearim in Judah: so that place is named Mahaneh-dan to this day. It is to the west of Kiriath-jearim. ¹³ From there they went on to the hill-country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah. ¹⁴ Then the five men who had gone to make a search through the country of Laish, said to their brothers, Have you knowledge that in these houses there is an ephod and family gods and a pictured image and a metal image? So now you see what to do. ¹⁵ And turning from their road they came to the house of the young Levite, the house of Micah, and said to him, Is it well with you? ¹⁶ And the six hundred armed men of the Danites took their places by the doorway. ¹⁷ Then the five men who had gone to make a search through the land, went in and took the pictured image and the ephod and the family gods and the metal image; and the priest was by the doorway with the six hundred armed men. ¹⁸ And when they went into Micah's house and took out the pictured image and the ephod and the family gods and the metal image, the priest said to them, What are you doing? ¹⁹ And they said to him, Be quiet; say nothing, and come with us and be our father and priest; is it better for you to be priest to one man's house or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel? ²⁰ Then the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod and the family gods and the pictured image and went with the people. ²¹ So they went on their way again, putting the little ones and the oxen and the goods in front of them. ²² When they had gone some way from the house of Micah, the men from the houses near Micah's house came together and overtook the children of Dan, ²³ Crying out to them. And the Danites, turning round, said to Micah, What is your trouble, that you have taken up arms? ²⁴ And he said, You have taken my gods which I made, and my priest, and have gone away; what is there for me now? Why then do you say to me, What is your trouble? ²⁵ And the children of Dan said to him, Say no more, or men of bitter spirit may make an attack on you, causing loss of your life and the lives of your people. ²⁶ Then the children of Dan went on their way; and when Micah saw that they were stronger than he, he went back to his house. ²⁷ And they took that which Micah had made, and his priest, and came to Laish, to a people living quietly and without thought of danger, and they put them to the sword without mercy, burning down their town. ²⁸ And they had no saviour, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with Aram; and it was in the valley which is the property of Beth-rehob. And building up the town again they took it for their living-place. ²⁹ And they gave the town the name of Dan, after Dan their father, who was the son of Israel: though the town had been named Laish at first.

¹⁹ And they said, See, every year there is a feast of the Lord in Shiloh, which is to the north of Beth-el, on the east side of the highway which goes up from Beth-el to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.

² They took the ark of God into the house of Dagon and put it by the side of Dagon.

¹⁰ So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And when the ark of God came to Ekron, the people of the town made an outcry, saying, They have sent the ark of the God of Israel to us for the destruction of us and of our people.

⁹ If it goes by the land of Israel to Beth-shemesh, then this great evil is his work; but if not, then we may be certain that the evil was not his doing, but was the working of chance. ¹⁰ And the men did so; they took two cows, yoking them to the cart and shutting up their young ones in their living-place: ¹¹ And they put the ark of the Lord on the cart and the chest with the gold images. ¹² And the cows took the straight way, by the road to Beth-shemesh; they went by the highway, not turning to the right or to the left, and the sound of their voices was clear on the road; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the edge of Beth-shemesh. ¹³ And the people of Beth-shemesh were cutting their grain in the valley, and lifting up their eyes they saw the ark and were full of joy when they saw it. ¹⁴ And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and came to a stop there by a great stone: and cutting up the wood of the cart they made a burned offering of the cows to the Lord. ¹⁵ Then the Levites took down the ark of the Lord and the chest in which were the gold images, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh made burned offerings and gave worship that day before the Lord. ¹⁶ And the five lords of the Philistines, having seen it, went back to Ekron the same day. ¹⁷ Now these are the gold images which the Philistines sent as a sin-offering to the Lord; one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron; ¹⁸ And the gold mice, one for every town of the Philistines, the property of the five lords, walled towns as well as country places: and the great stone where they put the ark of the Lord is still in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite to this day. ¹⁹ But the Lord sent destruction on seventy men of the people of Beth-shemesh for looking into the ark of the Lord; and great was the sorrow of the people for the destruction which the Lord had sent on them.

³¹ That day they overcame the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were feeble from need of food.

¹² And early in the morning he got up and went to Saul; and word was given to Samuel that Saul had come to Carmel and put up a pillar, and had gone from there down to Gilgal.

⁶ So Achish straight away gave him Ziklag: and for that reason Ziklag has been the property of the kings of Judah to this day.

⁴ And the Philistines came together and put their forces in position in Shunem; and Saul got all Israel together and they took up their positions in Gilboa.

¹ Now when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made an attack on the South and on Ziklag, and had overcome Ziklag and put it on fire;

²⁷ He sent to those who were in Beth-el, and in Ramah of the South, and in Jattir;

¹⁶ And every one got the other by the head, driving his sword into the other's side, so they all went down together: and that place was named the Field of Sides, and it is in Gibeon.

¹¹ And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.

So Jehoash, king of Israel, went up, and he and Amaziah, king of Judah, came face to face at Beth-shemesh, which is in Judah. ¹² And Judah was overcome before Israel, so that they went in flight, every man to his tent. ¹³ And Jehoash, king of Israel, made Amaziah, king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, son of Ahaziah, prisoner at Beth-shemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and had the wall of Jerusalem pulled down from the doorway of Ephraim to the door in the angle, four hundred cubits.

These were their towns till David became king. ³² And their small towns were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, and Tochen and Ashan, five towns; ³³ And all the small places round these towns, as far as Baalath-beer, the high place of the South. These were their living-places, and they have lists of their generations.

⁷² And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kedesh with its outskirts, and Daberath with its outskirts,

⁷⁴ And out of the tribe of Asher, Mashal with its outskirts, and Abdon with its outskirts,

⁷⁷ To the rest of the Levites, the sons of Merari, were given, out of the tribe of Zebulun, Rimmono with its outskirts, Tabor with its outskirts;

So they were living from Beer-sheba to the valley of Hinnom.

⁶⁰ So that he went away from the holy place in Shiloh, the tent which he had put among men;

¹² You have made the north and the south; Tabor and Hermon are sounding with joy at your name.

⁵ Your head is like Carmel, and the hair of your head is like purple, in whose net the king is prisoner.

¹ The word about Tyre. Let a cry of sorrow go up, O ships of Tarshish, because your strong place is made waste; on the way back from the land of Kittim the news is given to them. ² Send out a cry of grief, you men of the sea-land, traders of Zidon, who go over the sea, whose representatives are on great waters;

² Send out a cry of grief, you men of the sea-land, traders of Zidon, who go over the sea, whose representatives are on great waters; ³ Who get in the seed of Shihor, whose wealth is the trade of the nations. ⁴ Be shamed, O Zidon: for the sea, the strong place of the sea has said, I have not been with child, or given birth; I have not taken care of young men, or kept watch over the growth of virgins.

⁴ Be shamed, O Zidon: for the sea, the strong place of the sea has said, I have not been with child, or given birth; I have not taken care of young men, or kept watch over the growth of virgins. ⁵ When the news comes to Egypt they will be bitterly pained at the fate of Tyre. ⁶ Go over to Tarshish; give cries of sorrow, O men of the sea-land. ⁷ Is this the town which was full of joy, whose start goes back to times long past, whose wanderings took her into far-off countries? ⁸ By whom was this purposed against Tyre, the crowning town, whose traders are chiefs, whose business men are honoured in the land? ⁹ It was the purpose of the Lord of armies to put pride to shame, to make sport of the glory of those who are honoured in the earth. ¹⁰ Let your land be worked with the plough, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer any harbour. ¹¹ His hand is stretched out over the sea, the kingdoms are shaking: the Lord has given orders about Canaan, to make waste its strong places. ¹² And he said, There is no more joy for you, O crushed virgin daughter of Zidon: up! go over to Kittim; even there you will have no rest.

¹² And he said, There is no more joy for you, O crushed virgin daughter of Zidon: up! go over to Kittim; even there you will have no rest. ¹³ (UNTRANSLATED TEXT) ¹⁴ Let a cry of sorrow go up, O ships of Tarshish: because your strong place is made waste. ¹⁵ And it will be in that day that Tyre will go out of mind for seventy years, that is, the days of one king: after the end of seventy years it will be for Tyre as in the song of the loose woman. ¹⁶ Take an instrument of music, go about the town, O loose woman who has gone out from the memory of man; make sweet melody with songs, so that you may come back to men's minds. ¹⁷ And it will be after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will have mercy on Tyre, and she will go back to her trade, acting as a loose woman with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. ¹⁸ And her goods and her trade will be holy to the Lord: they will not be kept back or stored up; for her produce will be for those living in the Lord's land, to give them food for their needs, and fair clothing.

⁹ The earth is sorrowing and wasting away; Lebanon is put to shame and has become waste; Sharon is like the Arabah; and in Bashan and Carmel the leaves are falling.

² It will be flowering like the rose; it will be full of delight and songs; the glory of Lebanon will be given to it; the pride of Carmel and Sharon: they will see the glory of the Lord, the power of our God.

²⁴ You have sent your servants with evil words against the Lord, and have said, With all my war-carriages I have come up to the top of the mountains, to the inmost parts of Lebanon; and its tall cedars will be cut down, and the best trees of its woods: I will come up into his highest places, into his thick woods.

¹² But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel. ¹³ And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer: ¹⁴ For this reason I will do to the house which is named by my name, and in which you have put your faith, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

¹⁸ By my life, says the King, whose name is the Lord of armies, truly, like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel by the sea, so will he come.

¹ Now in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ² Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, Aha, she who was the doorway of the peoples is broken; she is turned over to them; she who was full is made waste; ³ For this cause the Lord has said, See, I am against you, O Tyre, and will send up a number of nations against you as the sea sends up its waves. ⁴ And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock ⁵ She will be a place for the stretching out of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have said it, says the Lord: and her goods will be given over to the nations. ⁶ And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord. ⁷ For this is what the Lord has said: See, I will send up from the north Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre, with horses and war-carriages and with an army and great numbers of people. ⁸ He will put to the sword your daughters in the open country: he will make strong walls against you and put up an earthwork against you, arming himself for war against you. ⁹ He will put up his engines of war against your walls, and your towers will be broken down by his axes. ¹⁰ Because of the number of his horses you will be covered with their dust: your walls will be shaking at the noise of the horsemen and of the wheels and of the war-carriages, when he comes through your doorways, as into a town which has been broken open. ¹¹ Your streets will be stamped down by the feet of his horses: he will put your people to the sword, and will send down the pillars of your strength to the earth. ¹² They will take by force all your wealth and go off with the goods with which you do trade: they will have your walls broken down and all the houses of your desire given up to destruction: they will put your stones and your wood and your dust deep in the water. ¹³ I will put an end to the noise of your songs, and the sound of your instruments of music will be gone for ever. ¹⁴ I will make you an uncovered rock: you will be a place for the stretching out of nets; there will be no building you up again: for I the Lord have said it, says the Lord. ¹⁵ This is what the Lord has said to Tyre: Will not the sea-lands be shaking at the sound of your fall, when the wounded give cries of pain, when men are put to the sword in you? ¹⁶ Then all the rulers of the sea will come down from their high seats, and put away their robes and take off their clothing of needlework: they will put on the clothing of grief, they will take their seats on the earth, shaking with fear every minute and overcome with wonder at you. ¹⁷ And they will send up a song of grief for you, and say to you, What destruction has come on you, how are you cut off from the sea, the noted town, which was strong in the sea, she and her people, causing the fear of them to come on all the dry land! ¹⁸ Now the sea-lands will be shaking in the day of your fall; and all the ships on the sea will be overcome with fear at your going. ¹⁹ For this is what the Lord has said: I will make you a waste town, like the towns which are unpeopled; when I make the deep come upon you, covering you with great waters. ²⁰ Then I will make you go down with those who go down into the underworld, to the people of the past, causing your living-place to be in the deepest parts of the earth, in places long unpeopled, with those who go down into the deep, so that there will be no one living in you; and you will have no glory in the land of the living. ²¹ I will make you a thing of fear, and you will come to an end: even if you are looked for, you will not be seen again for ever, says the Lord.

⁷ And for the ruler there is to be a part on one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the property of the town, in front of the holy offering and in front of the property of the town on the west of it and on the east: measured in the same line as one of the parts of the land, from its limit on the west to its limit on the east of the land. ⁸ And this will be his heritage in Israel: and my rulers will no longer be cruel masters to my people; but they will give the land as a heritage to the children of Israel by their tribes.

⁴ And the Lord said to him, Give him the name of Jezreel, for after a little time I will send punishment for the blood of Jezreel on the line of Jehu, and put an end to the kingdom of Israel. ⁵ And in that day I will let the bow of Israel be broken in the valley of Jezreel.

⁸ Him who is seated in power I will have cut off from Ashdod, and him in whose hand is the rod from Ashkelon; and my hand will be turned against Ekron, and the rest of the Philistines will come to destruction, says the Lord God.

³ And Jonah got up to go in flight to Tarshish, away from the Lord; and he went down to Joppa, and saw there a ship going to Tarshish: so he gave them the price of the journey and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish, away from the Lord.

¹ On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

¹¹ This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and let his glory be seen openly; and his disciples put their faith in him.

⁴⁶ So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.

² In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you? ³ And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.

² Even as you gave him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.

³⁶ Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, that is, Dorcas: this woman was given to good works and acts of mercy at all times.

⁴³ And he was living in Joppa for some time with Simon, a leather-worker.

¹⁴ But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal. ¹⁵ As it says in the Writings, He who had taken up much had nothing over and he who had little had enough.

⁸ For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have said anything about another day. ⁹ So that there is still a Sabbath-keeping for the people of God.
