THE FAME OF SHELOMOH
And so be it, at the end of twenty years, Shelomoh builds the house of Yah Veh and his own house; ² and the cities Hiram gives to Shelomoh, Shelomoh builds them, and has the sons of Yisra El settle there. ³ And Shelomoh goes to Hamath Sobah and prevails against it: ⁴ and he builds Tadmor in the wilderness and builds all the storage cities in Hamath: ⁵ and he builds Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the nether - rampart cities with walls, doors and bars: ⁶ and Baalath and all the storage cities Shelomoh has and all the chariot cities and the cities of the cavalry and all that Shelomoh attaches to build in Yeru Shalem and in Lebanon and throughout all the land of his reign. ⁷ All the people who remain of the Hethiy and the Emoriy and the Perizziy and the Hivviy and the Yebusiy who are not of Yisra El ⁸ - of their sons who remain after them in the land whom the sons of Yisra El finished not off; Shelomoh ascends them - a vassal until this day. ⁹ And of the sons of Yisra El Shelomoh gives no servants for his work; but they are men of war and governors of his tertiaries and governors of his chariots and cavalry: ¹⁰ and these are the station prefects of the governor of sovereign Shelomoh - two hundred and fifty who subjugate over the people. ¹¹ And Shelomoh ascends the daughter of Paroh from the city of David to the house he built for her: for he says, My woman settles not in the house of David sovereign of Yisra El because of the holies where the ark of Yah Veh has come. ¹² Then Shelomoh holocausts holocausts to Yah Veh on the sacrifice altar of Yah Veh which he built at the face of the porch; ¹³ even after a day by day word; holocausting according to the misvah of Mosheh; on the shabbaths and on the new moons and on the seasons, three times in the year, even in the celebration of matsah and in the celebration of weeks and in the celebration of sukkoth/brush arbors. ¹⁴ And according to the judgment of David his father; he stands the allotments of the priests to their service; and the Leviym to their guards; to halal and minister in front of the priests as the day by day word: and the porters by their allotments, portal by portal: for thus is the misvah of David the man of Elohim. ¹⁵ And they turn not aside from the misvah of the sovereign regarding the priests and Leviym concerning any word, or the treasures: ¹⁶ and they prepare all the work of Shelomoh to the day of the foundation of the house of Yah Veh and until it is finished: the house of Yah Veh is at shalom. ¹⁷ Then Shelomoh goes to Esyon Geber and to Eloth, at the lip of the sea in the land of Edom: ¹⁸ and by the hands of his servants Hiram sends him ships and servants who know the sea; and they go with the servants of Shelomoh to Ophir; and there they take four hundred and fifty rounds of gold and bring them to sovereign Shelomoh.

¹⁸ In that day Yah Veh cuts a covenant with Abram, saying, To your seed I gave this land - from the river of Misrayim to the great river - the river Euphrates: ¹⁹ the Qeyniy and the Qenaziy and the Qadmoniy ²⁰ and the Hethiy and the Perizziy and the Rephaim ²¹ and the Emoriy and the Kenaaniy and the Girgashiy and the Yebusiy.

⁵ And he says, Approach not here: put your shoes off your feet; for the place whereon you stand is holy soil.

⁵ and now, if in hearing, you hear my voice and guard my covenant, then you - you become to me a peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine: ⁶ and you become to me a sovereigndom of priests and a holy goyim. These are the words you word to the sons of Yisra El. 2 Petros 2:9, Apocalypse 1:6

THREE CELEBRATIONS
Celebrate three paces to me in the year. ¹⁵ Guard the celebration of matsah: eat matsah seven days, as I misvahed you, in the season of the month Abib; for in it you came from Misrayim: and not be seen empty at my face. ¹⁶ And the celebration of harvest: the firstfruits of the works you seeded in the field. And the celebration of ingathering: - in the end of the year when you ingather your works from the field. ¹⁷ Three times in the year have all your males be seen at the face of Adonay Yah Veh:

³⁸ Now this is what you work on the sacrifice altar: two lambs - yearling sons, day by day continually: ³⁹ work the one lamb in the morning and work the second lamb between evenings: ⁴⁰ and with the one lamb a tenth of flour mingled with the fourth of a hin of pestled oil; and the fourth of a hin of wine for a libation. ⁴¹ And work the second lamb between evenings and work thereto according to the offering of the morning and according to the libation thereof, for a scent of rest - a firing to Yah Veh ⁴² - a continual holocaust throughout your generations at the opening of the tent of the congregation at the face of Yah Veh: where in congregating, I congregate with you, there to word to you: ⁴³ and there I congregate with the sons of Yisra El; and it becomes hallowed by my honor.

THE BLESSINGS OF MOSHEH ON THE SONS OF YISRA EL And this is the blessing, wherewith Mosheh the man of Elohim blessed the sons of Yisra El at the face of his death:

³ and descends seaward to the border of Yaphletiy - to the border of Beth Horon the nether and to Gezer; and the exits are at the sea.

⁵
THE BOUNDARIES OF EPHRAYIM The border of the sons of Ephrayim is by their families: the border of their inheritance from the rising is Atroth Addar to Beth Horon Elyon;

¹⁰ And they dispossess not the Kenaaniy who settle in Gezer: but the Kenaaniy settle among the Ephrayimiy to this day, and serve a vassal.

¹³ And so be it, when the sons of Yisra El strengthen they give the Kenaaniy to vassal; but in dispossessing, dispossess them not.

⁴⁴ and El Teqeh and Gibbethon and Baalath

²¹ and the sons of Ben Yamin dispossess not the Yebusiy who settle Yeru Shalem; but the Yebusiy settle with the sons of Ben Yamin in Yeru Shalem to this day. ²² And the house of Yoseph ascends against Beth El: and Yah Veh is with them. ²³ And the house of Yoseph sends to explore Beth El - the former name of the city is Luz. ²⁴ And the guards see a man leave the city and they say to him, Have us see, we beseech you, the entrance to the city and we work you mercy. ²⁵ And he has them see the entrance into the city, and they smite the city with the mouth of the sword; and send away the man and all his family: ²⁶ and the man goes to the land of the Hethiy and builds a city; and calls the name thereof Luz - the name thereof to this day. ²⁷
THE UNCONQUERED CITIES
Menash Sheh dispossesses neither Beth Shean and her daughters nor Taanach and her daughters nor the settlers of Dor and her daughters nor the settlers of Yible Am and her daughters nor the settlers of Megiddo and her daughters; and the Kenaaniy will to settle in that land: ²⁸ and so be it, when Yisra El strengthens, they set the Kenaaniy to vassal and in dispossessing, dispossess them not. ²⁹ And Ephrayim dispossesses not the Kenaaniy who settle in Gezer; and the Kenaaniy settle in Gezer among them. ³⁰ Zebulun dispossesses neither the settlers of Qitron nor the settlers of Nahalol; and the Kenaaniy settle among them and become their vassals. ³¹ Asher dispossesses neither the settlers of Akko nor the settlers of Sidon nor of Ach Lab nor of Achzib nor of Helbah nor of Aphek nor of Rechob: ³² and the Asheriy settle among the Kenaaniy the settlers of the land: for they dispossess them not. ³³ Naphtali dispossesses neither the settlers of Beth Shemesh nor the settlers of Beth Anath; and he settles among the Kenaaniy the settlers of the land: and the settlers of Beth Shemesh and of Beth Anath become their vassals. ³⁴ And the Emoriy press the sons of Dan into the mountain: for they allow them not to descend to the valley: ³⁵ and the Emoriy will to settle in mount Heres in Ayalon and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Yoseph is heavy so that they become vassals: ³⁶ and the border of the Emoriy is from the ascent of Acrabbim, from the rock and upward.

¹¹ and he says, This becomes the judgment of the sovereign who reigns over you: He takes your sons and sets them for himself for his chariots and for his cavalry; at the face of his chariots; ¹² and sets for himself governors over thousands and governors over fifties; and sets them to plough his ploughing and to harvest his harvest; and to work his instruments of war and instruments of his chariots:

³ And David smites Hadad Ezer the son of Rechob sovereign of Sobah as he goes to turn back his hand at the river Euphrates:

SHELOMOH REQUESTS WISDOM
And Shelomoh intermarries with Paroh sovereign of Misrayim; and takes the daughter of Paroh and brings her into the city of David until he finishes building his own house and the house of Yah Veh and the wall of Yeru Shalem all around:

⁶ and Achiy Shar, over the household; and Adoni Ram the son of Abda, over the vassal.

¹³
DRAFTING THE VASSAL
And sovereign Shelomoh ascends a vassal from all Yisra El; and the vassal is thirty thousand men: ¹⁴ and he sends them to Lebanon - ten thousand a month by changes: a month in Lebanon and two months at their house: and Adoni Ram is over the vassal.

¹⁶ beside the governor of the stationed of Shelomoh who are over the work - three thousand and three hundred who subjugate the people who work the work.

¹⁸ and the builders of Shelomoh and the builders of Hiram and the sculpters of Gibliy prepare timber and stones to build the house.

⁷ And in building, the house is built of stone which they shalam at the quarry: so that, in building, they hear neither hammer nor axe nor instrument of iron in the house.

² and he builds the house of the forest of Lebanon, a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high; on four rows of cedar pillars with cedar beams on the pillars;

⁸ And his house where he settles has another court to house the porch - of like work. And Shelomoh works a house like this porch for the daughter of Paroh he had taken.

⁵¹ Thus they shalam all the work sovereign Shelomoh works for the house of Yah Veh. And Shelomoh brings in the holies of David his father: he gives the silver and the gold and the instruments among the treasures of the house of Yah Veh.

¹⁰ And so be it, at the end of twenty years, that Shelomoh built the two houses - the house of Yah Veh and the house of the sovereign: ¹¹ Hiram sovereign of Sor loaded Shelomoh with cedar trees and cypress trees and with gold - all he desired; then sovereign Shelomoh gives Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galiyl:

¹¹ Hiram sovereign of Sor loaded Shelomoh with cedar trees and cypress trees and with gold - all he desired; then sovereign Shelomoh gives Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galiyl: ¹² and Hiram goes from Sor to see the cities Shelomoh gives him: but they are not straight in his eyes.

¹⁵ and this is the word of the vassal sovereign Shelomoh lifts to build the house of Yah Veh and his own house and Millo and the wall of Yeru Shalem and Hasor and Megiddo and Gezer. ¹⁶ Paroh sovereign of Misrayim ascends and captures Gezer and burns it with fire; and slaughters the Kenaaniy who settle the city and gives it for dowries to his daughter, the woman of Shelomoh.

²⁰ - all the people who remain of the Emoriy, Hethiy, Perizziy, Hivviy and Yebusiy who are not of the sons of Yisra El, ²¹ their sons who remain after them in the land, whom the sons of Yisra El were not able to devote - Shelomoh ascends a vassal of service on them to this day.

²¹ their sons who remain after them in the land, whom the sons of Yisra El were not able to devote - Shelomoh ascends a vassal of service on them to this day.

²¹ their sons who remain after them in the land, whom the sons of Yisra El were not able to devote - Shelomoh ascends a vassal of service on them to this day. ²² And of the sons of Yisra El Shelomoh gives no servants: but they are men of war - his servants and his governors and his tertiaries and governors of his chariots and his cavalry:

²² And of the sons of Yisra El Shelomoh gives no servants: but they are men of war - his servants and his governors and his tertiaries and governors of his chariots and his cavalry: ²³ these are the governors stationed over the work of Shelomoh - five hundred and fifty to subjugate the people who work the work.

²³ these are the governors stationed over the work of Shelomoh - five hundred and fifty to subjugate the people who work the work. ²⁴ Only, the daughter of Paroh ascends from the city of David to the house he built for her: then he builds Millo.

²⁶ And sovereign Shelomoh works a navy of ships in Esyon Geber beside Eloth on the lip of the Reed sea in the land of Edom: ²⁷ and Hiram sends his servants in the ships - men of ships who know the sea, with servants of Shelomoh:

²⁷ and Hiram sends his servants in the ships - men of ships who know the sea, with servants of Shelomoh: ²⁸ and they come to Ophir and take gold from there - four hundred and twenty rounds and bring it to sovereign Shelomoh.

²² For the sovereign has at sea the ships of Tarshish with the ships of Hiram: once in three years the ships of Tarshish come, bearing gold and silver, tusks and apes and peacocks.

²⁶ And Shelomoh gathers chariots and cavalry: and he has a thousand and four hundred chariots and twelve thousand cavalry whom he guides in the cities for chariots and with the sovereign at Yeru Shalem:

²³ And Elohim raises a satan - Rezon the son of Eli Ada who had fled from his adoni Hadad Ezer sovereign of Sobah ²⁴ - who gathered men to himself and became governor over a troop when David slaughtered them and they went to Dammeseq and settled and reigned in Dammeseq: ²⁵ and he becomes a satan to Yisra El all the days of Shelomoh beside all the evil Hadad did: and he abhors Yisra El and reigns over Aram.

THE MAN OF ELOHIM WITH THE WORD OF YAH VEH
And behold, there comes a man of Elohim from Yah Hudah by the word of Yah Veh to Beth El: and Yarob Am stands by the sacrifice altar to incense:

⁴⁸ Yah Shaphat works ten ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they go not; for the ships break down at Esyon Geber.

²² He builds Eloth and restores it to Yah Hudah, after the sovereign lies down with his fathers.

⁶ At that time, Resin sovereign of Aram restores Eloth to Aram and plucks the Yah Hudiym from Eloth: and the Edomiy come to Eloth and settle there to this day.

THE FURNISHINGS OF THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH
And he works a sacrifice altar of copper, twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide and ten cubits high:

¹¹
THE HONOR OF YAH VEH FILLS THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH
And so be it, the priests go from the holies: - for all the priests who are found are hallowed with none to guard by allotment:

⁴ and he builds Tadmor in the wilderness and builds all the storage cities in Hamath:

¹⁰ And the servants of Hiram and the servants of Shelomoh who bring gold from Ophir also bring algumim trees and precious stones:

¹³ And the weight of gold that comes to Shelomoh in one year, six hundred and sixty-six rounds of gold;

⁷ And he says to Yah Hudah, We build these cities and surround them with walls and towers, doors and bars while the land is still at our face; because we seek Yah Veh our Elohim: we seek him and he rests us all around. - and they build and prosper.

THE REFORM OF ASA
And Asa hears these words and the prophecy of Oded the prophet; and he strengthens and passes the abominations from all the land of Yah Hudah and Ben Yamin and from the cities he captured from mount Ephrayim; and renews the sacrifice altar of Yah Veh at the face of the porch of Yah Veh:

¹² And Yah Shaphat walks and greatens upward; and in Yah Hudah he builds palaces and cities of storage:

³⁶ and he joins himself with him to work ships to go to Tarshish: and they work the ships in Esyon Geber.

⁴ This is the word you work: A third of you, entering on the shabbath of the priests and of the Leviym, are porters of the thresholds;

¹² Also, in Yah Hudah the hand of Elohim gives them one heart to work the misvah of the sovereign and of the governors by the word of Yah Veh.

² And Yechizqi Yah stations the allotments of the priests and the Leviym by their allotments - every man according to the mouth of his service: the priests and Leviym for holocausts and for shelamim, to minister and to spread hands and to halal in the portals of the camps of Yah Veh:

¹⁰ So they prepare the service: and the priests stand in their station and the Leviym in their allotments according to the misvah of the sovereign:

¹⁸ And they raise the priests in their divisions and the Leviym in their allotments, for the service of Elah at Yeru Shalem; according to the inscribing in the scroll of Mosheh.

²⁴ And the head of the Leviym: Hashab Yah, Shereb Yah and Yah Shua the son of Qadmi El with their brothers opposite them - to halal and to spread hands according to the misvah of David the man of Elohim - underguard by underguard.

³⁶ and his brothers: Shema Yah and Azar El, Milalay, Gilalay, Maai, Nethan El and Yah Hudah, Hanani, with instruments of song of David the man of Elohim and Ezra the scribe at their face;

³⁴ they desolated not the people, concerning whom Yah Veh had said to them;

⁴ I greatened my works; I built houses; I planted vineyards;

⁸ I also gathered silver and gold and the peculiar treasure of sovereigns and of the jurisdictions: I worked songsters and songtresses and the delights of the sons of humanity and mistresses of mistresses.

¹⁰ and whatever my eyes asked I set not aside from them, nor withheld my heart from any cheerfulness; for my heart cheered in all my toil: and this was my allotment of all my toil. ¹¹ Then I faced all the works my hands worked and on the toil I toiled to work; and behold, all is vanity and gnawing of spirit and there is no advantage under the sun. ¹² And I turned my face to see wisdom and madness and folly: but what of the human who comes after the sovereign - when that which is, was already worked? ¹³ And I saw that wisdom advantages over folly, as far as light advantages over darkness. ¹⁴ The eyes of the wise are in his head; and the fool walks in darkness; and I also perceived that what happens to one, happens to all. ¹⁵ And I said in my heart, As happens to the fool, happens even to me. Why then am I more enwisened? And I worded in my heart, that this also is vanity. ¹⁶ For there is no memorial of the wise more than of the fool eternally; that in the days to come, all is forgotten. And how die the wise? As the fool! ¹⁷ And I hated life; because the work worked under the sun is evil to me; for all is vanity and gnawing of spirit. ¹⁸ Yes, I hated all the toil I toiled under the sun; because I leave it to humanity after me. ¹⁹ And who knows whether he be wise or fool? - and yet dominates over all the toil I toiled wherein I enwisened myself under the sun. This is also vanity. ²⁰ I turned my heart around to quit all the toil I toiled under the sun. ²¹ For there is a human whose toil is in wisdom and in knowledge and in prosperity; yet he gives his allotment to a human who never toiled therein. This also is vanity and a great evil. ²² For what has humanity of all his toil and of the gnawing of his heart wherein he toiled under the sun? ²³ For all his days are sorrows and his drudgery, vexation; yes, his heart lies not down in the night. This is also vanity. ²⁴ Naught is better for a human, than to eat and drink and to delight his soul - to see good in his toil. This also I saw, that this is from the hand of Elohim. ²⁵ For who eats, or who else hastens more than I? ²⁶ - giving humanity what is good at his face - wisdom and knowledge and cheerfulness; and to the sinner he gives drudgery, to gather and to heap, to give him the good at the face of Elohim. This also is vanity and gnawing of spirit.

⁸ Come with me from Lebanon, bride, with me from Lebanon; observe from the top of Amanah, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the habitations of lions, from the mountains of the leopards.

¹⁶ And he brings me into the inner court of the house of Yah Veh, and behold, at the portal of the manse of Yah Veh between the porch and the sacrifice altar - about twenty-five men with their backs toward the manse of Yah Veh and their faces eastward; and they prostrate eastward toward the sun.

² Son of humanity, set your face toward Yeru Shalem and drop toward the holies; and prophesy against the soil of Yisra El:

¹⁷ And so be it for the hierarch for holocausts and offerings and libations - in the celebrations and in the new moons and in the shabbaths, in all seasons of the house of Yisra El: he works that for the sin and the offering and the holocaust and the shelamim, to kapar/atone for the house of Yisra El.

³ And the people of the land prostrate at the opening of this portal at the face of Yah Veh, in the shabbaths and in the new moons: ⁴ and the holocaust the hierarch oblates to Yah Veh in the shabbath day, six integrious lambs and an integrious ram: ⁵ and the offering, an ephah for a ram, and the offering for the lambs, the gift of his hand and a hin of oil to an ephah: ⁶ and in the day of the new moon, an integrious ox son of a bullock, and six integrious lambs, and an integrious ram: ⁷ and he works an offering, an ephah for a bullock and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs according as his hand attains, and a hin of oil to an ephah. ⁸ And the hierarch enters, and he enters by the way of the porch of that portal and he exits by the same way. ⁹ And when the people of the land enters at the face of Yah Veh in their seasons, he who enters to prostrate by the way of the north portal, exits by the way of the south portal; and he who enters in by the way of the south portal exits by the way of the north portal: he exits not by the way of the portal whereby he enters, but exits opposite. ¹⁰ And the hierarch among them, in entering, enters; and in exiting, exits: ¹¹ and in the celebrations and in the seasons, the offering, an ephah to a bullock and an ephah to a ram; and to the lambs as the gift of his hand, and a hin of oil to an ephah. ¹² And when the hierarch works a voluntary holocaust or voluntary shelamim to Yah Veh, he opens for himself the portal facing eastward; and he works his holocaust and his shelamim as he worked on the shabbath day: then he exits; and shuts the portal after he exits. ¹³ And work a daily holocaust to Yah Veh an integrious lamb - a yearling son: work it morning by morning: ¹⁴ And morning by morning, work an offering for it, the sixth of an ephah and the third part of a hin of oil, to sprinkle with the flour; an offering by an eternal statute continually to Yah Veh: ¹⁵ and work the lamb and the offering and the oil morning by morning for a continual holocaust.

¹⁷ Have the priests, the ministers of Yah Veh, weep between the porch and the sacrifice altar; and have them say, Spare your people, O Yah Veh! And give not your inheritance to reproach so that the goyim reign over them! Why have them say among the people, Where is their Elohim?

THE BIRTH OF YAHN THE BAPTIZER FORETOLD
And so be it, in the days of Herod the sovereign of Yah Hudah there was a priest named Zechar Yah, of the course of Abi Yah: and his woman of the daughters of Aharon; and her name, Eli Sheba:

⁸ And so be it, as he priests at the face of Elohim in the order of his course

²³ and Yah Shua walks in the priestal precinct in the portico of Shelomoh.

²² and he removed him, and raised David to be their sovereign: to whom also he witnessed, and said, I find David of Yishay a man after my own heart, who does all my will.

³⁶ For David indeed, after he tended his own generation by the counsel of Elohim, fell on sleep; and was added to his fathers and saw corruption:

²⁶ But the Yeru Shalem above is liberated - the mother of us all.

³¹ So then brothers, we are not children of the lass, but of the liberated.

¹⁸ - and we heard this voice brought from the heavens being with him in the holy mount.
