DAVID MUSTERS YISRA EL
And Yah Veh adds to kindle his wrath against Yisra El; and he goads David against them to say, Go, number Yisra El and Yah Hudah. ² And the sovereign says to Yah Ab the governor of the valiant host with him, Flit now through all the scions of Yisra El from Dan even to Beer Sheba; and number the people so that I know the number of the people. ³ And Yah Ab says to the sovereign, Yes, Yah Veh your Elohim adds to the people - as many as ever they be, a hundred times that the eyes of my adoni the sovereign see. But why delights my adoni the sovereign in this word? ⁴ And the word of the sovereign prevails against Yah Ab and against the governors of the valiant: and Yah Ab and the governors of the valiant go from the face of the sovereign to muster the people of Yisra El: ⁵ and they pass over Yarden and encamp in Aroer, on the right side of the city midst the wadi of Gad and toward Yazer: ⁶ and they come to Gilad and to the land of Tahtim Hodshi; and they come to Dan Yaan and around to Sidon; ⁷ and come to the fortress of Sor and to all the cities of the Hivviy and of the Kenaaniy; and they go to the south of Yah Hudah to Beer Sheba. ⁸ And they flit through all the land: and at the end of nine months and twenty days they come to Yeru Shalem: ⁹ and Yah Ab gives up the number of the census of the people to the sovereign: and there are of Yisra El eight hundred thousand valiant who draw the sword; and the men of Yah Hudah five hundred thousand men. ¹⁰ And after he scribes the people the heart of David is smitten: and David says to Yah Veh, I sinned mightily in what I worked: and now, I beseech you, O Yah Veh, pass over the perversity of your servant; for I follied mightily. ¹¹ And David rises in the morning, and the word of Yah Veh comes to the prophet Gad, the seer of David, saying, ¹² Go and word to David, Thus says Yah Veh, I lift you these three: choose which one to work to you. ¹³ And Gad comes to David and tells him and says to him, Come seven years of famine to you in your land? Or flee you three months from the face of your tribulators while they pursue you? Or have three days pestilence in your land? now perceive and see which word I return to him who sends me. ¹⁴ And David says to Gad, I tribulate mightily: may we fall now into the hand of Yah Veh - for his mercies are many: and may I not fall to the hand of humanity. ¹⁵ And Yah Veh gives a pestilence on Yisra El from the morning even to the time of season: and seventy thousand men of the people die from Dan even to Beer Sheba. ¹⁶ And the angel spreads his hand on Yeru Shalem to ruin it; and Yah Veh sighs of the evil; and says to the angel who ruined the people, Enough! Slacken now your hand. - and the angel of Yah Veh is by the threshingplace of Aravnah the Yebusiy. ¹⁷ And David says to Yah Veh when he sees the angel who smites the people and says, Behold, I sinned and I perverted: but these flock, what worked they? O that your hand, I pray you, be against me and against the house of my father. ¹⁸ And that day Gad comes to David and says to him, Ascend! Raise a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh in the threshingfloor of Aravnah the Yebusiy. ¹⁹ And David ascends according to the word of Gad as Yah Veh misvahed: ²⁰ and Aravnah looks and sees the sovereign and his servants passing toward him: and Aravnah goes out and prostrates himself to the sovereign on his nostrils on the earth: ²¹ and Aravnah says, Why comes my adoni the sovereign to his servant? And David says, To chattel your threshingfloor; to build a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh to restrain the plague from the people. ²² And Aravnah says to David, O that my adoni the sovereign take and holocaust whatever is good in his eyes: see - oxen for holocaust and threshing sledges and instruments of the oxen for timber. ²³ Aravnah gives all these - sovereign to sovereign: and Aravnah says to the sovereign, Yah Veh your Elohim is pleased of you. ²⁴ And the sovereign says to Aravnah, No: but in chatteling, I chattel it from you at a price: I holocaust no holocausts to Yah Veh my Elohim of what is gratuitous. - and David chattels the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. ²⁵ And there David builds a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh and holocausts holocausts and shelamim: and Yah Veh is intreated for the land and the plague is restrained from Yisra El.

⁶ And Yah Veh sighs that he worked humanity on the earth and it contorts at his heart:

⁹ and they come to the place Elohim told him; and Abraham builds a sacrifice altar there and arranges the timber and binds Yischaq his son and sets him on the sacrifice altar above the timber

⁸ and he words with them, saying, If it is your soul that I entomb mine who died from my face; hear me and intercede for me to Ephron the son of Sochar, ⁹ to give me the cave of Machpelah, - his in the end of his field; for its full silver give it me for a possession of a tomb among you. ¹⁰ And Ephron settles among the sons of Heth: and Ephron the Hethiy answers Abraham in the ears of the sons of Heth, of all entering the portal of his city, saying, ¹¹ No, my adoni, hear me: I give you the field and I give you the cave therein - I give you in the eyes of the sons of my people: entomb yours who died.

¹¹ No, my adoni, hear me: I give you the field and I give you the cave therein - I give you in the eyes of the sons of my people: entomb yours who died. ¹² And Abraham prostrates at the face of the people of the land: ¹³ and he words to Ephron in the ears of the people of the land, saying, If only you hear me: I give you silver for the field; take it of me: and there I entomb mine who died.

¹³ and he words to Ephron in the ears of the people of the land, saying, If only you hear me: I give you silver for the field; take it of me: and there I entomb mine who died. ¹⁴ And Ephron answers Abraham, saying to him, ¹⁵ My adoni, hearken to me: the land - four hundred shekels of silver; what is that between me and between you? entomb yours who died. ¹⁶ And Abraham hearkens to Ephron; and Abraham weighs to Ephron the silver he words in the ears of the sons of Heth - four hundred shekels of silver as passes with the merchant.

²¹ So he flees with all he has; and he rises and passes over the river and sets his face toward the mount Gilad.

²⁰ But as for you, you fabricated evil against me; but Elohim fabricated it to good, in order to work, as this day, to preserve many people alive.

¹⁷ But the accoucheuses awe Elohim and work not as the sovereign of Misrayim words; but preserve the children alive.

³ and I harden the heart of Paroh and abound my signs and my omens in the land of Misrayim;

²⁸ Intreat Yah Veh - for it is great that there be no voices of Elohim and hail; and I send you away and add not that you stay.

¹³ And the blood becomes a sign to you on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I leap over you: and the plague becomes not on you to ruin you when I smite the land of Misrayim.

²³ for Yah Veh passes through to smite the Misrayim; and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on the two side posts, Yah Veh leaps over the portal and gives not that the ruiner come in to your houses to smite you.

¹⁴ - and Yah Veh sighs of the evil he worded to work to his people.

⁶ and Yah Veh passes by in front of his face and calls, Yah Veh! Yah Veh El! Merciful and charismatic, slow to wrath and great in mercy and truth, ⁷ guarding mercy for thousands, bearing perversity and rebellion and sin: and in exonerating, exonerates not; visiting the perversity of the fathers on the sons and on the sons of the sons to the third and to the fourth.

¹⁶ - I also work this to you: I visit terror over you - emaciation and the burning ague to finish off the eyes; and moping of soul: and you seed your seed in vain for your enemies to eat. ¹⁷ And I give my face against you, that you become smitten at the face of your enemies: that they who hate you subjugate you; and that you flee when none pursues you.

²⁰ and your force consumes in vain: neither your land gives her produce nor the trees of the land give their fruits.

²⁵ and I bring a sword on you to avenge the avenging of my covenant: and when you gather to your cities, I send the pestilence among you; that you become given into the hand of the enemy:

³⁶ And on those who survive, I send a timidity into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the voice of a driven leaf pursues them; and they flee as retreating from a sword; and they fall when none pursues: ³⁷ and they falter - man to brother as at the face of a sword when none pursues: and you have no resistance at the face of your enemies:

⁴¹ and that I also, in walking contrary to them bring them into the land of their enemies - if they humble their uncircumcised hearts; and they then be pleased in the punishment of their perversity

⁴³ For they forsake the land and are pleased in her shabbaths as she lies desolate without them: and they are pleased in their perversity: because - even because they spurn my judgments and because their soul loathes my statutes.

⁴⁴ These are their mustered, whom Mosheh and Aharon mustered and the hierarchs of Yisra El, being twelve men: each man being for the house of his fathers. ⁴⁵ Thus are all those mustered of the sons of Yisra El, by the house of their fathers, sons of twenty years and upward, all in Yisra El going to hostility; ⁴⁶ even all their mustered: six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.

⁴⁴ and Yah Veh words to Mosheh, saying, ⁴⁵ Get from among this witness and I finish them off as in a blink. - and they fall on their faces. ⁴⁶ And Mosheh says to Aharon, Take a tray and give fire therein from off the sacrifice altar and put on incense and carry it quickly to the witness and kapar/atone for them: for a rage goes out from the face of Yah Veh; the plague begins.

⁴⁶ And Mosheh says to Aharon, Take a tray and give fire therein from off the sacrifice altar and put on incense and carry it quickly to the witness and kapar/atone for them: for a rage goes out from the face of Yah Veh; the plague begins. ⁴⁷ And Aharon takes as Mosheh worded, and runs midst the congregation; and behold, the plague among the people begins: and he gives incense and kapars/atones for the people:

⁴⁷ And Aharon takes as Mosheh worded, and runs midst the congregation; and behold, the plague among the people begins: and he gives incense and kapars/atones for the people: ⁴⁸ and he stands between the dying and the living; and the plague restrains.

⁴⁸ and he stands between the dying and the living; and the plague restrains. ⁴⁹ - and they who died in the plague - fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them who died about the word of Qorach.

⁴⁹ - and they who died in the plague - fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them who died about the word of Qorach. ⁵⁰ And Aharon returns to Mosheh to the opening of the tent of the congregation: and the plague restrains.

³² And Mosheh sends to spy Yazer and they capture the daughters thereof and dispossess the Emoriy there:

⁸ and he goes after the man of Yisra El into the belly and stabs the two of them through - the man of Yisra El and the woman into her belly: thus the plague restrains from the sons of Yisra El. ⁹ - and they who die in the plague, twenty-four thousand.

SONS OF YISRA EL DISPUTE OVER LAND
And the sons of Reu Ben and the sons of Gad have mighty mighty many chattel: and when they see the land of Yazer and the land of Gilad, and behold, the place is a place for chattel;

³ Ataroth and Dibon and Yazer and Nimrah and Heshbon and El Aleh and Sebam and Nebo and Beon

³⁵ and Atroth, Shophan and Yazer and Jogbehah

³⁹ And the sons of Machir the son of Menash Sheh goes to Gilad and captures it and dispossesses the Emoriy therein.

¹¹ Yah Veh Elohim of your fathers added to you a thousand times as many as you are, and blessed you, as he worded you!

³⁶ From Aroer, by the edge of the wadi of Arnon and from the city by the wadi - even to Gilad, not one city was too lofty for us: Yah Veh our Elohim gave all at our face.

¹³ and when your oxen and your flocks abound and your silver and your gold abound and all you have abounds; ¹⁴ and your heart lifts and you forget Yah Veh your Elohim who brought you from the land of Misrayim from the house of servants:

²² Yah Veh smites you with an emaciation and with a fever and with an inflammation and with a fevered fever and with the sword and with blasting and with palegreen; and they pursue you until you destruct:

²⁵ Yah Veh gives you, smitten at the face of your enemies: you go against them one way and flee their face seven ways: - removed into all the sovereigndoms of the earth.

²⁷ Yah Veh smites you with the ulcer of Misrayim and with the hemorrhoids and with the scurvy and with the itch whereof you cannot be healed.

³⁵ Yah Veh smites you in the knees and in the legs, with an evil ulcer that cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to your scalp:

⁵² and he tribulates you in all your portals until your high and fortified walls topple - wherein you confided, throughout all your land: and he tribulates you in all your portals throughout all the land Yah Veh your Elohim gives you:

⁶ Deal you thus to Yah Veh, O foolish people and unwise? Is he not your father who chatteled you? Has he not worked you and established you?

³ and to the Kenaaniy from the rising and seaward; and to the Emoriy and the Hethiy and the Perizziy and the Yebusiy in the mountains; and to the Hivviy under Hermon in the land of Mispeh:

⁸ and Yah Veh gives them into the hand of Yisra El who smites them and pursues them to great Sidon and to Misrephoth Mayim and to the valley of Mispeh from the rising; they smite them until no survivors survive:

⁹ from Aroer on the lip of the wadi Arnon and the city midst the wadi and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;

¹⁶ and their border is from Aroer on the lip of the wadi Arnon and the city midst the wadi and all the plain by Medeba;

⁶³ As for the Yebusiy, the settlers of Yeru Shalem, the sons of Yah Hudah cannot dispossess them; but the Yebusiy settle with the sons of Yah Hudah at Yeru Shalem to this day.

²⁸ and Ebron and Rechob and Hammon and Qanah to great Sidon; ²⁹ and the border turns to Ramah and to the fortified city Sor; and the border turns to Hosah; and the exits are at the sea from the border boundaries to Achzib;

⁴⁷ and the border of the sons of Dan goes out from them: and the sons of Dan ascend to fight against Leshem and capture it; and smite it with the mouth of the sword and possess it and settle therein; and call Leshem, Dan after the name of Dan their father:

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.

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:

³ five ringleaders of the Peleshethiy and all the Kenaaniy and the Sidoniy and the Hivviy who settle in mount Lebanon - from mount Baal Hermon to the entering in of Hamath:

²⁸ and there is no rescuer because it is far from Sidon; and they have no word with humanity; and it is in the valley by Beth Rechob. And they build a city and settle therein: ²⁹ and they call the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was birthed to Yisra El: but formerly, the name of the city is Laish.

¹¹ And they are by Yebus, and the day subdues mightily; and the lad says to his adoni, Come, I beseech you, turn in into this city of the Yebusiy and stay overnight therein.

¹
THE SONS OF YISRA EL ATTACK THE SONS OF BEN YAMIN
And all the sons of Yisra El go out and the witness congregates as one man - from Dan even to Beer Sheba with the land of Gilad to Yah Veh in Mispeh:

¹⁰ And she falls on her face and prostrates herself to the earth and says to him, Why find I charism in your eyes, that you recognize me - and I, a stranger?

¹⁴ and the wagon comes into the field of Yah Shua, a Beth Shemeshiy; and stands there: and a great stone is there: and they split the timber of the wagon and holocaust the heifers - a holocaust to Yah Veh.

¹⁹ And he smites the men of Beth Shemesh because they saw into the ark of Yah Veh; and of the people he smites fifty thousand and seventy men: and the people mourn because Yah Veh smites the people a great stroke.

⁹ And Shemu El takes one milking lamb and holocausts a holocaust totally to Yah Veh: and Shemu El cries to Yah Veh for Yisra El; and Yah Veh answers him.

¹⁷ and he returns to Ramah; for his house is there: and there he judges Yisra El; and there he builds a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh.

⁹ Formerly in Yisra El, when a man went to enquire of Elohim, he said thus, Come and let us go to the seer! - for the Prophet of today was formerly called, Seer.

⁶ And the men of Yisra El see they are tribulated - that the people are exacted - and the people hide themselves in caves and in crevices and in rocks and in towers and in wells:

¹³ And Shemu El says to Shaul, You follied: you guarded not the misvah of Yah Veh your Elohim which he misvahed you: for by now Yah Veh had established your sovereigndom on Yisra El eternally:

¹¹ I sigh that I have Shaul to reign sovereign: for he turns back from after me and raises not my words. - and it inflames Shemu El and he cries to Yah Veh all night.

⁵ And the prophet Gad says to David, Settle not in the hold; go and get into the land of Yah Hudah. Then David goes and comes to the forest of Hareth.

⁵ And so be it, afterward, the heart of David smites him, because he cut off the border of Shaul:

¹⁹ Now I beseech you, that my adoni the sovereign hear the words of his servant: If Yah Veh goads you against me, have him scent an offering: and if sons of humanity, cursed are they at the face of Yah Veh; for they drive me out this day from being scraped into the inheritance of Yah Veh, saying, Go, serve other elohim.

²¹ Then says Shaul, I sinned! Return, my son David, for I vilify you no more, because my soul is valued in your eyes this day: behold, I follied and inadvertently erred mighty aboundingly.

²⁸ and to them in Aroer and to them in Siphmoth and to them in Eshtemoa

¹³ and Yah Ab the son of Seruyah and the servants of David go and meet by the pool of Gibon: and they settle - the one by the pool here and the one by the pool there.

¹⁰ - to pass the sovereigndom from the house of Shaul and to raise the throne of David over Yisra El and over Yah Hudah from Dan even to Beer Sheba.

⁸ and David says on that day, Whoever touches to the culvert, and smites the Yebusiy and the lame and the blind, whom the soul of David hates. - because they say, The blind and the lame enter not into the house.

¹⁶ And Yah Ab the son of Seruyah is over the host; and Yah Shaphat the son of Achiy Lud is remembrancer;

⁸ And he prostrates himself and says, What is your servant, that you face such a dead dog as I?

¹² Strengthen! - Strengthen for our people and for the cities of our Elohim: and Yah Veh works good in his eyes.

⁹ Why despise you the word of Yah Veh to work evil in his eyes? You smote Uri Yah the Hethiy with the sword and took his woman to be your woman and slaughtered him with the sword by the sons of Ammon: ¹⁰ and now the sword turns not aside from your house eternally; finally, you despised me and took the woman of Uri Yah the Hethiy to be your woman. ¹¹ Thus says Yah Veh, Behold, I raise evil against you from your own house and I take your women in front of your eyes and give them to your friend: to lie down with your women in the eyes of this sun.

¹³ And David says to Nathan, I sinned against Yah Veh. And Nathan says to David, Yah Veh also passes over your sin that you not die. ¹⁴ Only, because by this word you give the enemies of Yah Veh great occasion to scorn; and in dying, the son birthed to you dies.

¹⁰ And the sovereign says, What have I to do with you, you sons of Seruyah? he abases thus because Yah Veh says to him, Abase David. Who then is to say, Why work you so?

¹¹ So I counsel, that in gathering, all Yisra El gathers to you - from Dan even to Beer Sheba, as the sand by the sea for abundance; and that you go to war by yourself:

²³ And Yah Ab is over all the host of Yisra El: and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada is over the executioners and over the couriers:

¹
REVENGE OF THE GIBONIY
And there is a famine in the days of David - three years - year after year; and David seeks the face of Yah Veh. And Yah Veh says, It is for Shaul and for the bloody house, because he deathified the Giboniy.

¹
REVENGE OF THE GIBONIY
And there is a famine in the days of David - three years - year after year; and David seeks the face of Yah Veh. And Yah Veh says, It is for Shaul and for the bloody house, because he deathified the Giboniy. ² And the sovereign calls the Giboniy and says to them - now the Giboniy are not of the sons of Yisra El but of the remnant of the Emoriy - and the sons of Yisra El oathed to them: - and Shaul sought to smite them in his jealousy toward the sons of Yisra El and Yah Hudah: ³ - yes, David says to the Giboniy, What work I for you? Wherewith kapar/atone I for you so that you bless the inheritance of Yah Veh? ⁴ And the Giboniy says to him, We have silver and gold neither of Shaul nor of his house; nor for us to deathify any man in Yisra El. And he says, Whatever you say, I work for you. ⁵ And they say to the sovereign, The man who finishes us off - who considers against us desolates us from standing by in any of the borders of Yisra El: ⁶ give us seven men of his sons and we impale them to Yah Veh in Gibah of Shaul, whomever Yah Veh chooses. And the sovereign says, I give them. ⁷ And the sovereign spares Mephi Bosheth the son of Yah Nathan the son of Shaul because of the oath of Yah Veh between them - between David and between Yah Nathan the son of Shaul. ⁸ And the sovereign takes the two sons of Rispah the daughter of Ajah whom she birthed to Shaul - Armoni and Mephi Bosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Shaul, whom she birthed to Adri El the son of Barzillay the Mecholathiy: ⁹ and he gives them into the hands of the Giboniy and they impale them in the mountain at the face of Yah Veh: and they fall sevenfold together - deathified in the days of harvest at the first - in the beginning of barley harvest. ¹⁰ And Rispah the daughter of Ajah takes saq and spreads it for her on the rock - from the beginning of harvest until water from the heavens pours on them and gives neither the flyers of the heavens to rest on them by day nor the live beings of the field by night. ¹¹ And they tell David what Rispah the daughter of Ajah, the concubine of Shaul works: ¹² and David goes and takes the bones of Shaul and the bones of Yah Nathan his son from the masters of Yabesh Gilad - who stole them from the broadway of Beth Shaan, where the Peleshethiy hanged them in the day the Peleshethiy smote Shaul in Gilboa: ¹³ and from there he ascends the bones of Shaul and the bones of Yah Nathan his son; and they gather the bones of the impailed; ¹⁴ and they entomb the bones of Shaul and Yah Nathan his son in the land of Ben Yamin in Sela in the tomb of Qish his father: and they perform all the sovereign misvahs: and after they intreat Elohim for the land.

¹⁴ and they entomb the bones of Shaul and Yah Nathan his son in the land of Ben Yamin in Sela in the tomb of Qish his father: and they perform all the sovereign misvahs: and after they intreat Elohim for the land.

³⁷ Seleq the Ammoniy, Nachray the Beerothiy instrument bearer to Yah Ab the son of Seruyah,

² And the sovereign says to Yah Ab the governor of the valiant host with him, Flit now through all the scions of Yisra El from Dan even to Beer Sheba; and number the people so that I know the number of the people. ³ And Yah Ab says to the sovereign, Yes, Yah Veh your Elohim adds to the people - as many as ever they be, a hundred times that the eyes of my adoni the sovereign see. But why delights my adoni the sovereign in this word?

¹⁰ And after he scribes the people the heart of David is smitten: and David says to Yah Veh, I sinned mightily in what I worked: and now, I beseech you, O Yah Veh, pass over the perversity of your servant; for I follied mightily. ¹¹ And David rises in the morning, and the word of Yah Veh comes to the prophet Gad, the seer of David, saying,

¹⁴ And David says to Gad, I tribulate mightily: may we fall now into the hand of Yah Veh - for his mercies are many: and may I not fall to the hand of humanity.

¹⁸ And that day Gad comes to David and says to him, Ascend! Raise a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh in the threshingfloor of Aravnah the Yebusiy.

¹
RAVENS SUSTAIN ELI YAH
And Eli Yah the Tisbehiy of the settlers of Gilad, says to Ach Ab, Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El lives, at whose face I stand, neither dew nor rain becomes these years, except as according to my mouth. ² And the word of Yah Veh comes to him, saying, ³ Go from here and face eastward and hide yourself by the wadi Kerith at the face of Yarden: ⁴ and so be it, drink of the wadi; and I misvah the ravens to sustain you there. ⁵ So he goes and works according to the word of Yah Veh: he goes and settles by the wadi Kerith at the face of Yarden: ⁶ and the ravens bring him bread and flesh in the morning and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drinks of the wadi: ⁷ and so be it, at the end of days, the wadi withers, there being no rain in the land.

⁴ and goes by himself a journey of a day into the wilderness and comes and settles under one juniper: and he asks for his soul to die; and says, Enough now, O Yah Veh, take away my soul; for I am no better than my fathers.

²¹ And he returns from after him and takes a yoke of oxen and sacrifices them and stews their flesh with the instruments of the oxen; and gives to the people and they eat: and he rises and goes after Eli Yah and ministers to him.

¹⁷ And he says, I see all Yisra El scattered on the mountains as flocks with no tender: and Yah Veh says, These have no adoni: return them - every man to his house in shalom.

²⁰ And Yah Veh says, Who entices Ach Ab to ascend and fall at Ramoth Gilad? And this one says thus; and that one says thus: ²¹ and a spirit goes and stands at the face of Yah Veh and says, I entice him. ²² And Yah Veh says to him, How? And he says, I go and I become a false spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he says, Entice him and also prevail: Go! Work thus! ²³ And now behold, Yah Veh gives a false spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets and Yah Veh words evil concerning you.

¹⁵ and the lad of the man of Elohim starts early and goes forth; and behold, the valiant surround the city both with horses and chariots. And his minister says to him, Aha, my adoni! How work we?

³ and Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El and he gives them into the hand of Haza El sovereign of Aram and into the hand of Ben Hadad the son of Haza El all their days: ⁴ and Yah Achaz strokes the face of Yah Veh and Yah Veh hears him: for he sees the oppression of Yisra El because the sovereign of Aram oppresses them. ⁵ And Yah Veh gives Yisra El a saviour, so that they go from under the hand of the Aramiy: and the sons of Yisra El settle in their tents as three yesters ago: ⁶ only, they turn not aside from the sins of the house of Yarob Am by which he has Yisra El sin, wherein they walk: and the asherah also stands there in Shomeron. ⁷ And of the people of Yah Achaz he survives naught but fifty cavalry and ten chariots and ten thousand on foot; for the sovereign of Aram destroys them and sets them as the dust by threshing.

³⁵ And so be it, that night, the angel of Yah Veh goes out and smites in the camp of the Ashshuri - a hundred eighty-five thousand: and they start early in the morning, and behold, they are all dead carcases.

¹⁹ And Azubah dies and Kaleb takes to him Ephratha, who births him Hur.

¹
SATAN GOADS DAVID TO NUMBER YISRA EL
And Satan stands against Yisra El and goads David to number Yisra El: ² and David says to Yah Ab and to the governors of the people, Go, number and scribe Yisra El from Beer Sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, so I know. ³ And Yah Ab says, Yah Veh adds to his people a hundred times: but, my adoni sovereign, are they not all servants of my adoni? Why seeks my adoni this? Why becomes he a guilt to Yisra El? ⁴ And the word of the sovereign prevails against Yah Ab: and Yah Ab goes - goes through all Yisra El and comes to Yeru Shalem:

⁴ And the word of the sovereign prevails against Yah Ab: and Yah Ab goes - goes through all Yisra El and comes to Yeru Shalem: ⁵ and Yah Ab gives the number of the census of the people to David: and all Yisra El is a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men who draw sword: and Yah Hudah is four hundred seventy thousand men who draw sword: ⁶ and he musters not Levi and Ben Yamin among them: for the word of the sovereign is abhorrent to Yah Ab:

⁸ And David says to Elohim, I sinned mightily in working this word: and now, I beseech you, pass over the perversity of your servant; for I follied mightily.

¹⁰ Go and word to David, saying, Thus says Yah Veh: I spread these three to you: choose one of these, for me to work to you. ¹¹ And Gad comes to David and says to him, Thus says Yah Veh: Take to you ¹² - either three years famine; - or three months to be scraped away at the face of your tribulators as the sword of your enemies overtakes you; - or three days of the sword of Yah Veh even the pestilence in the land and the angel of Yah Veh ruining throughout all the borders of Yisra El: and now see, What word return I to him who sends me? ¹³ And David says to Gad, I am mighty tribulated: Let me fall, I pray you, into the hand of Yah Veh; for mighty many are his mercies: but that I not fall into the hand of humanity. ¹⁴ So Yah Veh gives pestilence on Yisra El: and there fall seventy thousand men of Yisra El: ¹⁵ and Elohim sends an angel to ruin Yeru Shalem: and as he ruins, Yah Veh sees and he sighs concerning the evil; and says to the angel who ruins, Enough now! Slacken your hand! And the angel of Yah Veh stands by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Yebusiy: ¹⁶ and David lifts his eyes and sees the angel of Yah Veh stand between the earth and between the heavens, with his sword drawn in his hand spread over Yeru Shalem. - and David and the elders cover in saq and fall on their faces.

¹⁶ and David lifts his eyes and sees the angel of Yah Veh stand between the earth and between the heavens, with his sword drawn in his hand spread over Yeru Shalem. - and David and the elders cover in saq and fall on their faces. ¹⁷ And David says to Elohim, Said I not to number the people? Yes, I who sins? Who in vilifying, vilifies? And as for this flock, what worked they? Let your hand, I beseech you, O Yah Veh my Elohim, be on me and on the house of my father; but not on your people, to plague them. ¹⁸ And the angel of Yah Veh says to Gad to say to David, that David ascend and raise a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Yebusiy. ¹⁹ And David ascends at the word Gad words in the name of Yah Veh:

¹⁹ And David ascends at the word Gad words in the name of Yah Veh: ²⁰ and Ornan turns back and sees the angel; and his four sons with him hide themselves: and Ornan threshes wheat:

²⁰ and Ornan turns back and sees the angel; and his four sons with him hide themselves: and Ornan threshes wheat: ²¹ and David comes to Ornan; and Ornan looks and sees David and goes from the threshingfloor and bows himself to David with his nostrils to the earth.

²¹ and David comes to Ornan; and Ornan looks and sees David and goes from the threshingfloor and bows himself to David with his nostrils to the earth. ²² And David says to Ornan, Give me the place of the threshingfloor to build a sacrifice altar therein to Yah Veh - give it me for the full silver: to restrain the plague from the people.

²² And David says to Ornan, Give me the place of the threshingfloor to build a sacrifice altar therein to Yah Veh - give it me for the full silver: to restrain the plague from the people. ²³ And Ornan says to David, Take it to yourself and may my adoni the sovereign work what is good in his eyes: see, I give you the oxen for holocausts and the threshing sledges for timber and the wheat for the offering - I give all. ²⁴ And sovereign David says to Ornan, No; but in chatteling, I chattel it for the full silver: for neither lift I what is yours for Yah Veh, nor holocaust holocausts gratuitously.

²⁴ And sovereign David says to Ornan, No; but in chatteling, I chattel it for the full silver: for neither lift I what is yours for Yah Veh, nor holocaust holocausts gratuitously. ²⁵ And David gives Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place:

²⁵ And David gives Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place: ²⁶ and there David builds a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh and holocausted holocausts and shelamim; and calls on Yah Veh. - and he answers him from the heavens by fire on the sacrifice altar of holocaust.

²⁶ and there David builds a sacrifice altar to Yah Veh and holocausted holocausts and shelamim; and calls on Yah Veh. - and he answers him from the heavens by fire on the sacrifice altar of holocaust. ²⁷ And Yah Veh says to the angel; and he turns his sword back into its sheath:

²⁷ And Yah Veh says to the angel; and he turns his sword back into its sheath: ²⁸ at that time David sees that Yah Veh answers him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Yebusiy: and he sacrifices there. ²⁹ And the tabernacle of Yah Veh, Mosheh worked in the wilderness and the sacrifice altar of the holocaust, are at that time in the bamah at Gibon: ³⁰ and David cannot go at its face to enquire of Elohim because he is frightened of the face of the sword of the angel of Yah Veh.

¹
DAVID PREPARES TO BUILD THE HOUSE OF ELOHIM
And David says, This is the house of Yah Veh Elohim and this is the sacrifice altar of the holocaust for Yisra El.

⁴ And over the allotment of the second month: Doday an Ach Oachiy; and of his allotment, Miqloth is also the eminent; and in his allotment - twenty-four thousand.

²³ And David spares not to number them - sons of twenty years and downward: because Yah Veh says he abounds Yisra El as the stars of the heavens. ²⁴ Yah Ab the son of Seruyah begins to number, but finishes not, for a rage falls against Yisra El; and the number ascends not in the account of the words of the days of sovereign David.

²⁴ Yah Ab the son of Seruyah begins to number, but finishes not, for a rage falls against Yisra El; and the number ascends not in the account of the words of the days of sovereign David.

²⁹ And the words of David the sovereign, first and last, behold, they are inscribed in the words of Shemu El the seer and in the words of Nathan the prophet and in the words of Gad the seer;

¹
SHELOMOH BEGINS TO BUILD THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH
And Shelomoh begins to build the house of Yah Veh at Yeru Shalem in mount Mori Yah; where he is seen by David his father in the place David prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Yebusiy:

⁹ As for Yah Veh, - his eyes flit throughout the whole earth, strengthened in behalf of them whose heart is at shalom toward him. Herein you folly: from this time on you have wars.

²⁰ And they start early in the morning and go to the wilderness of Teqoha: and as they go Yah Shaphat stands and says, Hear me, O Yah Hudah and you settlers of Yeru Shalem; Trust in Yah Veh your Elohim, amenable; trust his prophets, prosper.

⁵ and Yah Veh his Elohim gives him into the hand of the sovereign of Aram and they smite him; and capture a great multitude and bring them to Dammeseq: and he is given into the hand of the sovereign of Yisra El, who smites him with a great stroke. ⁶ And Peqach the son of Remal Yah slaughters in Yah Hudah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day - all sons of valour; because they forsake Yah Veh Elohim of their fathers. ⁷ And Zichri, mighty of Ephrayim, slaughters Maase Yah the son of the sovereign and Ezri Qam the eminent of the house and El Qanah the second to the sovereign: ⁸ and the sons of Yisra El capture two hundred thousand of their brothers - women, sons and daughters: and also plunder much spoil from them and bring the spoil to Shomeron. ⁹ And a prophet of Yah Veh is there; his name, Oded: and he goes at the face of the host who come to Shomeron, and says to them, Behold, Yah Veh Elohim of your fathers in his fury with Yah Hudah gives them into your hand: slaughter them in a rage it touches to the heavens.

²¹ and Yah Veh sends an angel who cuts off all the mighty of valour and the eminent and governors in the camp of the sovereign of Ashshur: and he returns with shamed face to his own land. And he comes to the house of his elohim; and the offspring of his inwards fell him there with the sword:

²⁵ and Yechizqi Yah returns not according as he was dealt; for his heart lifts: and there is rage on him and on Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem: ²⁶ and Yechizqi Yah humbles himself for the haughtiness of his heart - he and the settlers of Yeru Shalem; so that the rage of Yah Veh comes not on them in the days of Yechizqi Yah:

²⁶ and Yechizqi Yah humbles himself for the haughtiness of his heart - he and the settlers of Yeru Shalem; so that the rage of Yah Veh comes not on them in the days of Yechizqi Yah:

³¹ And thus, by the interpreters of the governors of Babel, who send to him to enquire of the omen in the land, Elohim left him, to test him, to know all that is in his heart.

¹⁶ and they deride the angels of Elohim and despise his words and deceive his prophets until the fury of Yah Veh ascends against his people - until there is no healing.

²⁶ and they were rebellious and rebelled against you and cast your torah behind their backs and slaughtered your prophets who witnessed against them to turn them to you: and they worked great scornings:

¹⁷ Behold, blithe - the man whom Elohah reproves; so spurn not the discipline of Shadday; ¹⁸ for he pains and binds; he strikes and his hands heal.

²⁰ I sinned; what do I to you, O you guardian of humanity? Why set me as a target against you, so that I am a burden to myself? ²¹ And why lift you not my rebellion and pass away my perversity? for now I lie in the dust; and you seek me early - but I am not.

²⁷ He observes men, and if any say, I sinned and perverted the straight and it profits me not; ²⁸ he redeems my soul from passing into the pit of ruin and my life sees the light.

⁶ so I spurn and sigh in dust and ashes.

⁸ And now, take seven bullocks and seven rams and go to my servant Iyob and holocaust yourselves a holocaust; and my servant Iyob prays for you; as for him, I lift from his face; so as not to work folly with you - in that you word not of me what is established, as my servant Iyob. ⁹ And Eli Phaz the Temaniy and Bildad the Shuachiy and Sophar the Naamahiy go and work according as Yah Veh words them; and Yah Veh lifts the face of Iyob.

³ he remembers all your offerings and fattens your holocausts. Selah. ⁴ He gives you according to your own heart and fulfills all your counsel.

⁵ My sin, you know; and my perversity, I covered not: I say, I spread hands for my rebellions to Yah Veh; and you lift the perversity of my sin. Selah.

⁶ their way is dark and slippery; and the angel of Yah Veh pursues them.

¹¹ as a flock, you give us for food; and winnow us among the goyim:

¹⁶ Your sons, in the stead of your fathers, whom you set as governors in all the earth.

¹ To His Eminence; Psalm by David: when Nathan the prophet comes to him, after he went in to Bath Sheba. Grant me charism, O Elohim, according to your mercy; according to the abundance of your tender mercies wipe out my rebellions: ² launder me aboundingly from my perversity and purify me from my sin: ³ for I know my rebellions; and my sin is continually in front of me. ⁴ Against you - you only, I sinned and worked this evil in your eyes; so that you are just when you word and pure when you judge. ⁵ Behold, I writhed in perversity; and in sin my mother conceived me.

¹ On Comprehension: By Asaph. O Elohim, why cast us off in perpetuity? why smoke your wrath against the flock of your pasture?

³⁸ And he, the merciful, kapars/atones their perversity and ruins them not; he abounds to turn his wrath and wakens not his fury:

⁵ for you, O Adonay, are good and forgiving - abundant in mercy to all who call on you.

¹⁵ But you, O Adonay, are El - full of mercy and charismatic; slow to wrath and abundant in mercy and truth.

¹³ Return, O Yah Veh! Until when? Sigh concerning your servants!

⁶ neither for the pestilence that walks in darkness nor for the ruin that devastates at noonday.

⁸ Yah Veh is merciful and charismatic; slow to wrath and abundant in mercy. ⁹ He neither contends in perpetuity nor guards eternally: ¹⁰ he neither works with us after our sins nor deals with us according to our perversities. ¹¹ For as the heavens loft above the earth, thus his mercy prevails mightily toward them who awe him: ¹² as far as the rising from the dusk, thus far he removes our rebellions from us: ¹³ as a father mercies his sons thus Yah Veh mercies them who awe him. ¹⁴ For he knows our form; he remembers that we are dust.

³⁰ and Pinechas stands and prays; and the plague restrains:

⁴¹ and he gave them into the hand of the goyim: and they who hated them reigned over them: ⁴² their enemies oppressed them and subdued them under their hand.

¹⁴ Yah Veh increases you - you and your sons

¹⁵⁶ Great are your tender mercies, O Yah Veh; enliven me according to your judgments:

⁴ But with you is forgiveness, that you be awed.

¹⁴ for Yah Veh pleads the cause of his people and he sighs concerning his servants.

⁹ Yah Veh is good to all; and his tender mercies are over all his works.

¹² for whom Yah Veh loves, he reproves - even as a father the son who pleases him.

¹⁰ The just knows the soul of his animal; and the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

²⁸ In the abundance of people is the majesty of the sovereign; and in the finality of nations is the ruin of the potentate.

¹³ He who covers his rebellions prospers not; and whoever spreads hands and forsakes is mercied.

²³ The pomp of humanity abases; and honor upholds the abased in spirit.

⁴ Where the word of a sovereign is, there is dominion. Who says to him, What work you?

⁵ Then I say, Woe is me! for I am mute; because I am a man of foul lips and I settle midst a people of fouled lips: for my eyes see the Sovereign, Yah Veh Sabaoth.

⁸ Because the fields of Heshbon languish - the vine of Sibmah: the masters of the goyim hammer the grapevines - they touch to Yazer; they wander through the wilderness: abandon her branches; they pass over the sea. ⁹ So I weep with the weeping of Yazer the vine of Sibmah: I saturate you with my tears, O Heshbon and El Aleh: for the shouting for your summer fruits and for your harvest is fallen:

² the cities of Aroer are abandoned: they become for droves that crouch, and no one trembles them:

⁸ In a seah, when it spreads, you strive therewith: he removes his hard wind in the day of the easterly.

⁸ and the volunteer counsels voluntarily; and by volunteering he rises.

³⁶ And the angel of Yah Veh goes and smites a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of Ashshur: and they start early in the morning, and behold, they are all dead carcases.

¹
THE SIGH OF ELOHIM
You, sigh - sigh over my people, says your Elohim. ² Word to the heart of Yeru Shalem and call out to her that her hostility is fulfilled - that her perversity is satisfied: for she takes double of the hand of Yah Veh for all her sins.

⁶ I enrage over my people; I profane my inheritance; and give them into your hand: you set them no mercies; you make your yoke on the aged mighty heavy.

⁷ the wicked forsake his way; and the man of mischief, his fabrications: and he returns to Yah Veh, and he mercies him; and to our Elohim, for he abounds to forgive.

¹⁶ For I neither contend eternally nor perpetually rage: for the spirit languishes at my face, and the breaths I work.

⁵ Then you awe and flow together; and your heart fears and enlarges: because the abundance of the sea turns to you; the valued of the goyim come to you:

⁷ all the flocks of Qedar gather to you; the rams of Nebayoth minister to you: they ascend with pleasure on my sacrifice altar and I adorn the house of my adornment.

⁵ Thus says Yah Veh; Cursed be the mighty who confide in humanity; who set flesh as his arm; who turns his heart from Yah Veh.

⁷ At that blink, when I word concerning a goyim, and concerning a sovereigndom, to uproot - and to pull down - and to destroy ⁸ - if that goyim, against whom I word, turns from their evil, then I sigh of the evil I fabricate to work to them. ⁹ And at that blink, when I word concerning a goyim and concerning a kingdom - to build and to plant; ¹⁰ If it works evil in my eyes, that it hearkens not to my voice, then I sigh of the good wherewith I said I am well-pleased.

⁶
YIRME YAH CHATTELS A FIELD
And Yirme Yah says, So be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, ⁷ Behold, Hanam El the son of Shallum your uncle comes to you, saying, Chattel my field in Anathoth: for the judgment of redemption is yours to chattel. ⁸ And Hanam El the son of my uncle comes to me in the court of the target area according to the word of Yah Veh; and says to me, Chattel, I beseech you, my field in Anathoth in the land of Ben Yamin: for the judgment of possession is yours; and the redemption is yours: chattel it for yourself: and I know this is the word of Yah Veh. ⁹ And I chattel the field of Hanam El the son of my uncle in Anathoth; and weigh him the silver - seventeen shekels of silver: ¹⁰ and I inscribe the scroll and seal; and witnesses witness and weigh him the silver in the balances: ¹¹ and I take the sealed scroll of the chattel to the misvah and statute, with the exposed one: ¹² and I give the scroll of the chattel to Baruch the son of Neri Yah the son of Machse Yah in the eyes of Hanam El the son of my uncle, and in the eyes of the witnesses who inscribe the scroll of the chattel in the eyes of all the Yah Hudiym who sit in the court of the target area. ¹³ And I misvah Baruch in their eyes, saying, ¹⁴ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth Elohim of Yisra El: Take these scrolls, both this sealed scroll of the chattel, and this exposed scroll; and give them in a potsherd instrument to stand many days.

³² for though he grieves you, yet he mercies according to the abundance of his mercies: ³³ for he neither humbles from his heart nor grieves the sons of men.

⁹ And if the prophet, when he is deluded, and words a word, I Yah Veh delude that prophet, and I spread my hand on him, and desolate him from midst my people Yisra El.

¹³ Son of humanity, when the land sins against me in treasoning a treason, then I spread my hand thereon and break the rod of the bread and send famine thereon; and cut off humanity and animal from it:

¹⁹ Or, I send a pestilence into that land and pour my fury thereon in blood - to cut off humanity and animal therefrom: ²⁰ and Noach, Dani El, and Iyob are in the midst - I live - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh they rescue neither son nor daughter; they rescue their own souls by their justness. ²¹ For thus says Adonay Yah Veh; How much more when I send my four evil judgments on Yeru Shalem - the sword and the famine and the evil live being and the pestilence - to cut it off from humanity and animal?

²⁵ And I also - I give them statutes - not good and judgments whereby they live not;

⁴⁰ for in my holy mountain - in the mountain of the height of Yisra El - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh there all the house of Yisra El - all of them in the land, serve me: there I am pleased with them, and there I require your exaltments, and the firstlings of your loads/burdens, with all your holies. ⁴¹ I am pleased with your scent of rest when I bring you out from the people; and gather you from the lands wherein you scattered; and I am hallowed in you in the eyes of the goyim:

² Son of humanity, prophesy against the tenders of Yisra El - prophesy, and say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh to the tenders: Ho to the tenders of Yisra El who tend themselves! Tend the tenders not the flocks? ³ You eat the fat and you enrobe with the wool; you sacrifice the fattened: you tend not the flock. ⁴ you neither strengthen the worn nor heal the sick; nor bind the broken nor restore the expelled; nor seek you the lost: and with severity and with tyranny you subjugate them. ⁵ And because there is no tender, they scatter: and they become food to all the live beings of the field; yes, they scatter. ⁶ My flock errs inadvertently through all the mountains and on every high hill: yes, my flock scatters on all the face of the earth; and no one searches or seeks.

²³ and I raise one tender over them - my servant David; and he tends them; he tends them and he becomes their tender. ²⁴ And I Yah Veh become their Elohim, and my servant David a hierarch among them; I Yah Veh have worded.

¹³ they sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of my holocausts, and eat; Yah Veh is not pleased with them; now he remembers their perversity and visits their sins: they return to Misrayim.

² Take with you words, and turn to Yah Veh: say to him, Bear all perversity and take the goodly: thus we shalam the bulllocks of our lips.

¹³ and rip your heart and not your clothes; and turn to Yah Veh your Elohim: for he is charismatic and merciful slow to wrath and of great mercy; and he sighs concerning the evil. ¹⁴ Who knows? He returns; yes, he sighs: and leaves a blessing behind him - an offering and a libation to Yah Veh your Elohim.

³ Yah Veh sighs for this: So be it not, says Yah Veh.

⁶ Yah Veh sighs for this also: So be it not, says Adonay Yah Veh.

² and he prays to Yah Veh, and says, I beseech you, O Yah Veh, was this not my word when I was yet in my soil? So I anticipated to flee to Tarshish: for I knew you are an El - charismatic and merciful, slow to anger and of great mercy; and you sigh of the evil:

⁸ Cheer not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I rise; when I sit in darkness Yah Veh is my light. ⁹ I bear the rage of Yah Veh because I sinned against him; until he pleads my plea and works my judgment: he brings me to the light and I see his justness.

¹⁸ Who is an El like to you, who bears perversity, and passes by the rebellion of the survivors of his inheritance? he holds not his wrath eternally because he delights mercy.

² O Yah Veh, I hear your report, and awe: O Yah Veh, enliven your deeds midst the years, midst the years make known; in quivering, remember mercy.

¹⁵ and in my enraging, I enrage greatly with the goyim who relax: for I was but a little enraged, and they helped for evil.

⁷ and I turn aside his blood from his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: and he who survives, even he is for our Elohim; and he becomes as a chiliarch in Yah Hudah, and Eqron as a Yebusiy.

⁷ Waken, O sword, against my tender, and against the mighty, my friend - an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth: smite the tender, and the flock scatters: and I turn my hand on the belittled.

¹² And you profane it, saying, The table of Yah Veh is profane; and the fruit, his food, contemptible. ¹³ You also say, Behold, what trouble! and you puff at it, says Yah Veh Sabaoth; and you bring the stripped and the lame and the sick. Thus bring you an offering: of your hand that pleases? says Yah Veh. ¹⁴ And cursed is the deceiver who has a male in his drove; and vows and sacrifices a ruin to Adonay: for I am a great Sovereign, says Yah Veh Sabaoth; and my name is awesome among the goyim.

⁷ For goyim rises against goyim, and sovereigndom against sovereigndom and so be it, famines and pestilences and quakes in divers places

²² thefts, avarices, evils, deceit, lasciviousness, maliciousness, blasphemy, pride, thoughtlessness:

⁴¹
THE THIRD GATH SHEMEN PRAYER OF YAH SHUA
And he comes the third time, and words to them, Sleep, finally! and, Rest! Enough! The hour is come! Behold! The Son of humanity is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

²⁵ but of a truth, I word you, many widows were in Yisra El in the days of Eli Yah when the heavens shut for three years and six months, when mega famine became throughout all the land:

²⁹
THE WORD IS THE LAMB OF ELOHIM
On the morrow Yahn sees Yah Shua coming to him, and words, Behold the Lamb of Elohim, who takes away the sin of the cosmos!

⁹ but they who hear: - reproved by their own conscience they go out one by one beginning from the elders even to the final; and Yah Shua is left alone with the woman standing in the midst.

¹¹
THE GOOD SHEPHERD PLACES HIS SOUL
I AM the good shepherd; the good shepherd places his soul for the sheep: ¹² and a hireling, not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming; and forsakes the sheep, and flees: and the wolf seizes them, and scatters the sheep.

²⁷ Now my soul troubles; And what say I? Father, save me from this hour? But for this cause, I come to this hour.

²⁸ to do as much as your hand and your counsel predetermined to become.

²⁹ But Petros and the other apostles answer, saying, We must first obey Elohim rather than humanity.

²³ And immediately an angel of Yah Veh smites him because he gives not Elohim the glory: and he becomes eaten of maggots and expires:

¹⁷ give no one evil for evil; provide good in the sight of all humanity.

³⁰ But I beseech you brothers, for sake of our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah and for the love of the Spirit, that you co-strive in prayers to Elohim for me; ³¹ to be rescued from them in Yah Hudah who distrust; and that my ministry to Yeru Shalem be well-received by the holy;

⁶ Sufficient to such a one is this disesteeming by many.

⁷
THE THORN OF PAULOS
And lest I be superciliously exalted through the excellence of the apocalypses, I was given a thorn in the flesh - an angel of Satan to punch me, lest I be superciliously exalted. ^{Numbers 33:55, Joshua 23:13, Judges 2:3, Ezekiel El 28:24, Nahum 1:10}

²³ For I am overtaken by two, having a panting to depart and to be with Messiah; which is rather much better:

¹¹ And for this cause Elohim sends them an energized seduction so that they trust a lie:

¹
PETITIONS, PRAYERS, INTERCESSIONS, AND EUCHARISTS
So first of all, I beseech that petitions, prayers, intercessions and eucharists be made for all humanity; ² for sovereigns and for all being in supremacy: so that we pass through a tranquil and quiet existence in all reverence and veneration.

³ For we ourselves sometimes also are: mindless, distrusting, seduced, - serving divers pantings and pleasures, passing through in malice and envy, - hateful - hating one another.

⁸ By trust Abraham, when called to go to a place he was about to take to an inheritance, obeyed; and he went, knowing not where he goes.

⁶ for Yah Veh disciplines whom he loves and scourges every son he receives. ^{Proverbs 3:11, 12 7} If you endure discipline, Elohim offers you as with sons; for what son is there whom the father disciplines not? ⁸ And if you are apart from discipline, whereof all become partakers, then you are bastards and not sons. ⁹ So indeed we have fathers of our flesh who discipline us and we respect them: and not much rather subjugate to the Father of spirits and live? ¹⁰ For they indeed, for a few days, discipline after their well-thinking; but he for our benefit that we partake of his holiness.

¹³ Word not, when tested, Because I am tested of Elohim: for Elohim is neither tested with evil nor tests anyone: ¹⁴ but each is tested when he is enticed of his own panting and entrapped.

⁵ and you yourselves, as living stones, are built a spiritual house - a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices, well-received to Elohim through Yah Shua Messiah.

²⁴ who his own self took our sins in his own body on the staff, that we, being dead to sins, live to justness: by whose bruises you are healed. ²⁵ For you were as wandering sheep - but now you returned to the Shepherd and Episcopate of your souls. ^{Isaiah 52:14-53:12}

⁹ whenever we profess our sins, he is trustworthy and just to forgive our sins and to purify us from all injustice:

²⁰ Because whenever our heart condemns us, Elohim is greater than our heart and knows all. ²¹ Beloved, whenever our heart condemns us not, then we have boldness toward Elohim.

¹⁹ As many as ever I befriend I reprove and discipline: so be zealous and repent.

⁸ And I perceive, and behold, a green horse: and he sitting on him - his name is Death and Hades/Sheol follows with him. And they are given authority over the fourth of the earth to slaughter in sabre and in famine and in death and by the beasts of the earth.
