YAAQOV BLESSES HIS SONS
And Yaaqov calls to his sons, and says, Gather and I tell you what confronts you in the final days. ² Gather and hear, you sons of Yaaqov and hearken to Yisra El your father. ³ Reu Ben, my firstbirth: you - my force and the beginning of my strength; the remainder of exaltation and the remainder of strength: ⁴ frothy as water, you remain not, because you ascended to the bed of your father; then you profaned it: he ascended to my couch. ⁵ Shimon and Levi: brothers with instruments of violence in their swords: ⁶ come not into their secret, O my soul; to their congregation, unite not, O my honor: for in their wrath they slaughtered a man and in their pleasure they hamstrung oxen: ⁷ cursed be their wrath, for it is strong; and their fury, for it is hard: I allot them in Yaaqov and scatter them in Yisra El. ⁸ Yah Hudah: you to whom your brothers spread hands: your hand is on the neck of your enemies; the sons of your father prostrate to you: ⁹ Yah Hudah is a whelp of a lion: from the prey, my son, you ascend: he kneels; he crouches as a lion and as a roaring lion; who rouses him? ¹⁰ Neither turns the scion aside from Yah Hudah nor a statute setter from between his feet until Shiloh come; and the obedience of the people is his: ¹¹ binding his foal to the vine and the son of his she burro to the choice; he launders his robes in wine and his veil in the blood of grapes: ¹² his eyes flush with wine and his teeth whiten with milk. ¹³ Zebulun: he tabernacles at the haven of the sea: and he is for a haven of ships; and his flank is to Sidon. ¹⁴ Yissachar: a bony he burro crouching between the stalls: ¹⁵ and he sees that rest is good and that the land pleases; and bows his shoulder to bear and becomes to serve as a vassal. ¹⁶ Dan: he pleads the cause of his people, as one of the scions of Yisra El: ¹⁷ Dan becomes a serpent by the way - an adder in the path who bites the horse heels, so that his rider falls backward. ¹⁸ I await your salvation, O Yah Veh. ¹⁹ Gad: a troop troops against him: but he troops against the heel. cp Genesis 3:15 ²⁰ Asher: his bread fattens and he gives delicacies to the sovereign. ²¹ Naphtali: a hind sent away: he gives glorious sayings. ²² Yoseph: a fruitful son - a fruitful son by a fountain; whose daughters pace over the wall: ²³ the masters of arrows embitter him and shoot and oppose him: ²⁴ and his bow settles perennial and the arms of his hands solidify by the hands of the Almighty of Yaaqov - from there is he who tends, the stone of Yisra El: ²⁵ by El of your father, who helps you; and by Shadday, who blesses you with blessings of the heavens most high - blessings of the abyss that crouch under - blessings of the breasts and of the womb: ²⁶ the blessings of your father prevail mightily above the blessings of those whom I conceived to the limits of the eternal hills: they be on the head of Yoseph and on his scalp who is a Separatist of his brothers. ²⁷ Ben Yamin: he tears as a wolf: in the morning he devours the prey and at evening he allots the loot. ²⁸ All these: the twelve scions of Yisra El: and this is it what their father words to them; and he blesses them - every man according to his blessing he blesses them. ²⁹ And he misvahs them, and says to them, I gather unto my people: entomb me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hethiy ³⁰ - in the cave in the field of Machpelah at the face of Mamre in the land of Kenaan; which Abraham chatteled with the field of Ephron the Hethiy for a possession of a tomb. ³¹ There they entombed Abraham and Sarah his woman; there they entombed Yischaq and Ribqah his woman; and there I entombed Leah ³² - in the chattel of the field and of the cave therein of the sons of Heth. ³³ And Yaaqov finishes misvahing his sons, and he gathers his feet into the bed and expires - and is gathered to his people.

¹⁴ And now, behold, I go to my people: come, and I counsel you what this people work to your people in the final days.

³⁰ - when you are in tribulation and all these words find you - even in the final days, if you turn to Yah Veh your Elohim and hearken to his voice;

¹² Congregate the people - men and women and toddlers and the sojourner inside your portals, to hear and to learn and to awe Yah Veh your Elohim and guard to work all the words of this torah:

²⁸ Congregate to me all the elders of your scions and your officers; and I speak these words in their ears and call the heavens and earth to record against them: ²⁹ for I know that after my death in ruining, you ruin and turn from the way I misvah you; and evil confronts you in the final days; - to vex him through the work of your hands.

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: ² and he says, Yah Veh comes from Sinay and rises from Seir to them; he shines from mount Paran and he comes with myriads of holy: from his right goes a decree of fire for them. ³ Yes, he cherishes the people; all his holy are in your hand: and they camp at your feet; every one bears of your words. ⁴ Mosheh misvahs us a torah, even the possession of the congregation of Yaaqov: ⁵ and he is sovereign in Yeshurun, in the gathering of the heads of the people - the scions of Yisra El. ⁶ Reu Ben lives and dies not; and his men become numerous. ⁷ And this for Yah Hudah: and he says, Hear, O Yah Veh, the voice of Yah Hudah and bring him to his people: greaten his hands for him; and become his help from his tribulators. ⁸ And of Levi he says, Your Thummim and your Urim be with your men of mercy, whom you tested at Massah/Testing and with whom you strove at the waters of Meribah/Strife: ⁹ who says to his father and to his mother, I saw him not: he neither recognized his brothers nor knew his own sons: for they guarded your sayings and guarded your covenant. ¹⁰ They point out your judgments to Yaaqov and your torah to Yisra El: they put incense at your nostrils, totally on your sacrifice altar. ¹¹ Yah Veh, bless his valour and be pleased in the deeds of his hands; strike the loins of them who rise against him and of them who hate him, from rising again. ¹² And of Ben Yamin he says, The beloved of Yah Veh tabernacles confidently by him; and covers him all the day long and he tabernacles between his shoulders. ¹³ And of Yoseph he says, Blessed of Yah Veh be his land, for the preciousnesses of the heavens; for the dew and for the abyss that crouches beneath; ¹⁴ and for the preciousnesses produced by the sun; and for the preciousnesses thrust by the moon; ¹⁵ and for the tops of the ancient mountains; and for the preciousnesses of the eternal hills; ¹⁶ and for the preciousnesses of the earth and fulness thereof; and for the pleasure of him who tabernacles in the bush: it comes on the head of Yoseph and on the scalp of him who was a Separatist from his brothers. ¹⁷ His majesty is the firstling of his ox and his horns the horns of a reem: with them he butts the people together to the finality of the earth: and they are the myriads of Ephrayim and they are the thousands of Menash Sheh. ¹⁸ And of Zebulun he says, Cheer, Zebulun, in your going out; and, Yissachar, in your tents. ¹⁹ They call the people to the mountain; there they sacrifice sacrifices of justness: for they suck of the bounty of the seas and of those covered and buried in the sand. ²⁰ And of Gad he says, Blessed by him who widens is Gad: he tabernacles as a lion and tears the arm - yes, the scalp: ²¹ and his eye is on the first for himself, because there, the allotment of the statute setter is covered; and he comes with the heads of the people: he works the justness of Yah Veh and his judgments with Yisra El. ²² And of Dan he says, Dan is the whelp of a lion: he leaps from Bashan. ²³ And of Naphtali he says, O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure and full of the blessing of Yah Veh: possess the seaward and the south. ²⁴ And of Asher he says, Asher is blessed with sons; he becomes pleasing to his brothers and dips his foot in oil. ²⁵ Your shoes are iron and copper; and as your days, thus your strength. ²⁶ No one is like the El of Yeshurun, who rides on the heavens in your help and in his pomp on the vapour. ²⁷ The ancient Elohim is your habitation and underneath are the eternal arms: and he expels the enemy from your face; and says, Desolate! ²⁸ And Yisra El tabernacles confidently alone: the fountain/eye of Yaaqov is on a land of crop and juice; also his heavens drip dew. ²⁹ Blithe - you, O Yisra El: who is like to you? A people saved by Yah Veh - the buckler of your help and the sword of your pomp! and your enemies emaciate in front of you; and you tread on their bamahs.

¹⁴ the private counsel of Yah Veh is with them who awe him; and he has them know his covenant.

⁶ Behold, days come, that all that is in your house, and what your fathers treasured until this day, is lifted to Babel: no word remains, says Yah Veh.

¹ Who trusts our report? and to whom is the arm of Yah Veh exposed?

²⁰ The wrath of Yah Veh turns not back until he works and until he raises the intrigue of his heart: in the latter days you discern with discernment.

²⁸ but there is an Elah in the heavens who exposes mysteries, and makes known to sovereign Nebukadnets Tsar what becomes in the final days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these: ²⁹ As for you, O sovereign, the intentions that ascended on your bed, What becomes after this? - and he who exposes mysteries makes known to you what becomes.

⁴⁷ The sovereign answers Dani El, and says, Of a truth, your Elah is an Elah of elahim, and a master of sovereigns, and an exposer of mysteries, that you can expose this mystery.

In the third year of Koresh sovereign of Persia a word is exposed to Dani El, whose name is called Belte Shats Tsar; and the word is truth and the hostility is great: and he discerns the word and discernment of the vision.

¹⁷ And it becomes, in the final days, words Elohim, I pour of my Spirit on all flesh: and your sons and your daughters prophesy, and your youths see visions, and your elders dream dreams:

¹⁷ For therein is the justness of Elohim unveiled from trust to trust: exactly as scribed, The just live by trust. ^{Habakkuk 2:4 18}

²⁴ And consider one another - to agitate to love and to good works: ²⁵ not forsaking to co-synagogue exactly as the custom of some is - but consoling: and so much the more, as long as you see the day approaching.

IN SPIRIT, IN THE HEAVENS
After these I perceive, and behold, an opened portal in the heavens: and the first voice I hear is as a trumpet speaking with me; wording, Ascend hither, and I show you what must be after these ^*. ^{*some mss place after these at the beginning of verse 2}

¹¹ Come, you sons, hearken to me; I teach you the awe of Yah Veh.

⁸ My son, hear the discipline of your father and abandon not the torah of your mother: ⁹ - a wreath of charism to your head and chokers around your throat.

¹ Hear, you sons, the discipline of a father; and hearken to know discernment; ² for I give you good doctrine: forsake not my torah. ³ For I was a son of my father - tender; an only at the face of my mother: ⁴ and teaches me and says to me, O that your heart uphold my words; guard my misvoth and live.

¹ My son, hearken to my wisdom; spread your ear to my discernment:

²⁰ My son, guard the misvah of your father and abandon not the torah of your mother:

²⁴ Now, you sons, hearken to me; hearken to the sayings of my mouth:

³² Now, O sons, hearken to me, for blithe - they who guard my ways;

²² Hearken to your father who birthed you and disrespect not your mother when she ages.

²⁶ My son, give me your heart so that your eyes guard my ways.

GENEALOGY OF ALL WHO COME TO MISRAYIM
And these are the names of the sons of Yisra El who comes to Misrayim: Yaaqov and his sons: Reu Ben, the firstbirth of Yaaqov.

¹⁸ and Yoseph says to his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstbirth; put your right on his head.

²⁰ And the sons of Reu Ben, the firstbirth of Yisra El, by their generations, by their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, by their craniums, every male son from twenty years and upward, all going to hostility:

⁵
MUSTER OF THE SONS OF REU BEN
Reu Ben, the firstbirth of Yisra El: the sons of Reu Ben: Hanoch, of the family of the Hanochiy; of Pallu, the family of the Palluiy;

¹⁷ but he recognizes the son of the hated as the firstbirth, by giving him a twofold mouth of all they find with him: for he is the beginning of his strength; the judgment of firstrights is his.

GENEALOGY OF THE SONS OF YISRA EL
These, the sons of Yisra El: Reu Ben, Shimon, Levi, and Yah Hudah, Yissachar and Zebulun,

GENEALOGY OF THE SONS OF REU BEN
As to the sons of Reu Ben the firstbirthed of Yisra El: - for he is the firstbirthed; and because he profaned the chamber of his father his firstrights are given to the sons of Yoseph the son of Yisra El; and the genealogy is not genealogized after the firstrights;

³ The sons of Reu Ben the firstbirthed of Yisra El: Hanoch and Pallu, Hesron and Karmi.

⁵¹ and smote all the firstbirthed in Misrayim - the firstfruits of their strength in the tents of Ham:

³⁶ he smote all the firstbirthed in their land - the firstfruits of all their strength:

²² and so be it, as Yisra El tabernacles in that land, Reu Ben goes and lies with Bilhah the concubine of his father: and Yisra El hears it.
THE GENEALOGY OF YAAQOV
And the sons of Yaaqov are twelve:

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; ² the sons of Gad and the sons of Reu Ben come and say to Mosheh and to El Azar the priest and to the hierarchs of the witness, saying, ³ Ataroth and Dibon and Yazer and Nimrah and Heshbon and El Aleh and Sebam and Nebo and Beon ⁴ - the country Yah Veh smote at the face of the witness of Yisra El, is a land for chattel; and your servants have chattel: ⁵ they say, If we find charism in your eyes, give this land to your servants for a possession and pass us not over Yarden. ⁶ And Mosheh says to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reu Ben, Go your brothers to war; and you - you sit here? ⁷ And why discourage you the heart of the sons of Yisra El from passing into the land Yah Veh gives them? ⁸ Thus your fathers worked, when I sent them from Qadesh Barnea to see the land; ⁹ and they ascended to the wadi of Eshcol and saw the land and discouraged the heart of the sons of Yisra El, to not go into the land Yah Veh gave them. ¹⁰ And Yah Veh kindled his wrath that day, and oathed, saying, ¹¹ Surely none of the men who ascended from Misrayim - sons of twenty years and upward ever see the soil I oathed to Abraham, to Yischaq and to Yaaqov; because they fulfill not to follow me: ¹² except Kaleb the son of Yephunneh the Qenaziy and Yah Shua the son of Nun: for they fulfilled to follow Yah Veh. ¹³ And Yah Veh kindled his wrath against Yisra El and he wandered them in the wilderness forty years; until all that generation who worked evil in the eyes of Yah Veh was consumed. ¹⁴ And behold, you rise in the stead of your fathers - an abundance of sinful men, to scrape together yet the fuming wrath of Yah Veh toward Yisra El. ¹⁵ When you turn away from after him, he adds to leave them in the wilderness; and you ruin all this people. ¹⁶ And they come near to him and say, We build flock walls here for our chattel and cities for our toddlers: ¹⁷ but we ourselves go ready equipped at the face of the sons of Yisra El, until we bring them to their place: and our toddlers settle in the fortified cities at the face of them who settle the land: ¹⁸ we return not to our houses until every man of the sons of Yisra El inherits his inheritance: ¹⁹ for we inherit not with them on yonder side Yarden, or beyond; because our inheritance falls to us on this side Yarden toward the rising. ²⁰ And Mosheh says to them, If you work this word, if you go equipped at the face of Yah Veh to war, ²¹ and all of you pass equipped over Yarden at the face of Yah Veh, until he dispossesses his enemies from his face, ²² and subdue the land at the face of Yah Veh: then afterward you return and become innocent at the face of Yah Veh and at the face of Yisra El; and this land becomes your possession at the face of Yah Veh. ²³ And if you work not so, behold, you sin against Yah Veh: and perceive that your sin finds you out. ²⁴ Build cities for your toddlers and walls for your flocks; and work as proceeds from your mouth. ²⁵ And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reu Ben say to Mosheh, saying, Your servants work as my adoni misvahs: ²⁶ our toddlers, our women, our chattel and all our animals, be there in the cities of Gilad: ²⁷ but your servants pass over, every man equipped for hostility, at the face of Yah Veh to war, as my adoni worded. ²⁸ And concerning them Mosheh misvahs El Azar the priest and Yah Shua the son of Nun and the head fathers of the rods of the sons of Yisra El: ²⁹ and Mosheh says to them, If the sons of Gad and the sons of Reu Ben pass over Yarden with you, every man equipped to war, at the face of Yah Veh, and the land subdues at your face; then give them the land of Gilad for a possession: ³⁰ but if they pass not over with you equipped, they possess among you in the land of Kenaan. ³¹ And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reu Ben answer, saying, As Yah Veh worded to your servants, thus we work: ³² we - we pass over equipped at the face of Yah Veh to the land of Kenaan, and the possession of our inheritance on this side Yarden becomes ours. ³³ And Mosheh gives them - the sons of Gad and the sons of Reu Ben and half the scion of Menash Sheh the son of Yoseph, the sovereigndom of Siho sovereign of the Emoriy and the sovereigndom of Og sovereign of Bashan - the land, with the cities thereof in the borders, - the cities of the land all around. ³⁴ And the sons of Gad build Dibon and Ataroth and Aroer ³⁵ and Atroth, Shophan and Yazer and Jogbehah ³⁶ and Beth Nimrah and Beth Ha Ran - fortified cities: and walls for flocks. ³⁷ And the sons of Reu Ben build Heshbon and El Aleh and Qiryathaim ³⁸ and Nebo and Baal Meon - their names being turned around and Sibmah: and calls names to the cities they build by name. ³⁹ And the sons of Machir the son of Menash Sheh goes to Gilad and captures it and dispossesses the Emoriy therein. ⁴⁰ And Mosheh gives Gilad to Machir the son of Menash Sheh; and he settles therein. ⁴¹ And Yair the son of Menash Sheh goes and captures the living areas thereof and calls them Havoth Yair: ⁴² and Nobach goes and captures Qenath and the daughters thereof and calls it Nobach, after his own name.

²¹ Neither desire the woman of your friend, nor desire the house of your friend - his field or his servant or his maid his ox or his he burro, or aught of your friend.

²⁰ Cursed he who lies with the woman of his father; because he exposes the border of his father. - and all the people say, Amen.

⁶ Reu Ben lives and dies not; and his men become numerous.

PAULOS REBUKES WHOREDOM
I actually hear of whoredom among you; and such whoredom as is not even named among the goyim; that one has the woman of his father.

⁶ But ask in trust, doubting naught. For whoever doubts resembles a surge of the sea windtossed and tossed. ⁷ For suppose not that such a human takes aught of Adonay. ⁸ A double-souled man is unstable in all his ways.

¹⁴ eyes full of adultery, and restless from sin; entrapping unstable souls; a heart exercised with avarice; children of curse

¹⁶ as also in all his epistles, speaking in them concerning these; in which some are incomprehensible - which the unlearned and unstable twist - as also the rest of the scriptures to their own destruction.

³³ And she conceives again and births a son; and says, Because Yah Veh hears I am hated, he also gives me this. - and she calls his name Shimon. ³⁴ And she conceives again and births a son; and says, Now this time my man joins me because I birthed him three sons: so his name is called Levi.

²⁵ And so be it, on the third day, in their paining, two of the sons of Yaaqov, Shimon and Levi, brothers of Dinah, each man takes his sword and comes on the city confidently and slaughters all the males: ²⁶ and they slaughter Hamor and Shechem his son with the mouth of the sword and take Dinah from the house of Shechem and go. ²⁷ The sons of Yaaqov come on the pierced and plunder the city, because they fouled their sister: ²⁸ they take their flocks and their oxen and their he burros and that in the city and that in the field ²⁹ and all their valuables and all their toddlers and capture their women and even plunder all that is in the house. ³⁰ And Yaaqov says to Shimon and Levi, You have troubled me to make me to stink among them who settle the land - among the Kenaaniy and the Perizziy: and I - few men in number, they gather against me and smite me; and desolate me - I and my house. ³¹ And they say, Works he our sister as one who whores?

¹⁰ And the sons of Shimon: Yemu El and Yamiyn and Ohad and Yachin and Sochar and Shaul the son of a Kenaaniy woman. ¹¹ And the sons of Levi: Gershon, Qehath and Merari.

⁹ He also who slacks his work is brother to a master of ruin.

²⁵ And so be it, on the third day, in their paining, two of the sons of Yaaqov, Shimon and Levi, brothers of Dinah, each man takes his sword and comes on the city confidently and slaughters all the males: ²⁶ and they slaughter Hamor and Shechem his son with the mouth of the sword and take Dinah from the house of Shechem and go.

³⁰ And Yaaqov says to Shimon and Levi, You have troubled me to make me to stink among them who settle the land - among the Kenaaniy and the Perizziy: and I - few men in number, they gather against me and smite me; and desolate me - I and my house.

²⁴ Cursed he who covertly smites his friend. - and all the people say, Amen.

²¹ The wadi of Qishon bears them away - that ancient wadi - the wadi Qishon. O my soul, you tread down strength.

BOOK I
Blithe - the man who neither walks in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor settles in the settlement of the scornful.

¹⁰ They guilt, O Elohim; fell them by their own counsels: in the abundance of their rebellions drive them away: for they rebel against you.

⁹ so my heart cheers and my honor twirls; and my flesh tabernacles confidently.

⁴ I neither settle with vain men nor go with imposters: ⁵ I hate the congregation of vilifiers and settle not with the wicked:

⁹ Neither gather my soul with sinners nor my life with men of blood

³ Draw me not away with the wicked - with the doers of mischief; who word shalom to their friends but evil is in their hearts.

¹² so that my honor may psalm to you and not hush. O Yah Veh my Elohim, I spread hands to you eternally.

⁵ Why prostrate, O my soul? Why roar within me? Await Elohim; for I still spread hands to him for the salvation of his face.

¹¹ Why prostrate, O my soul? Why roar within me? Hope in Elohim; for I spread hands to him - the salvation of my face and my Elohim.

⁵ Why prostrate, O my soul? and why roar within me? Await Elohim; for I still spread hands to him, - the salvation of my face, and my Elohim.

⁸ Waken, my honor! Waken, bagpipe and harp! I waken early.

² hide me from the private counsel of vilifiers - from the conspiracy of doers of mischief

²⁰ Is the throne of calamity joined with you - which forms toil by a statute? ²¹ They troop against the soul of the just and innocent blood, thet judge wicked:

¹ By David. Bless Yah Veh, O my soul, and all that is within me - his holy name:

¹⁹ Surely you sever the wicked, O Elohah; so turn aside from me, you men of blood:

¹¹ if they say, Come with us, we lurk for blood, we hide out gratuitously for the innocent;

¹⁵ - my son, walk not in the way with them; withhold your foot from their path: ¹⁶ for their feet run to evil and hasten to pour blood.

⁵ The fabrications of the just are justness; the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

¹⁹ My inwards! My inwards! I writhe at the walls of my heart; my heart roars within me; I cannot hush, because you hear, O my soul, the voice of the shophar - the blast of war.

¹⁷ I neither sat in the private counsel of ridiculers nor jumped for joy: I sat alone because of your hand: for you filled me with rage.

¹⁹ and say to my soul, Soul, you have vast goods laid for many years; Rest! Eat! Drink! Rejoice!

¹⁴
UNEQUAL YOKES
Yoke not unequally with the trustless! For what partaking has justness with torah violations? And what communion has light with darkness?

¹
THE PEBBLE OF SHIMON And the second pebble goes to Shimon for the rod of the sons of Shimon for their families: and their inheritance is midst the inheritance of the sons of Yah Hudah: ² and within their inheritance they have Beer Sheba and Sheba and Moladah ³ and Hasar Shual and Balah and Esem ⁴ and El Tolad and Bethu El and Hormah ⁵ and Siqlag and Beth Markaboth and Hasar Susah ⁶ and Beth Lebaoth and Sharuchen - thirteen cities and their courts: ⁷ Ayin, Rimmon and Ether and Ashan - four cities and their courts: ⁸ and all the courts around these cities to Baalath Beer; Ramah of the south.

¹⁵ and Amnon hates her mightily; so that the hatred wherewith he hates her is greater than the love wherewith he loved her. And Amnon says to her, Rise! Go!

²² and Abi Shalom words to his brother Amnon neither good nor evil: for Abi Shalom hates Amnon, for word that he abased his sister Tamar. ²³
ABI SHALOM DEATHIFIES AMNON
And so be it, after two years of days, Abi Shalom has sheepshearers in Baal Hasor beside Ephrayim: and Abi Shalom calls all the sons of the sovereign: ²⁴ and Abi Shalom comes to the sovereign and says, Behold now, your servant has sheepshearers; may the sovereign, I beseech you, and his servants go with your servant. ²⁵ And the sovereign says to Abi Shalom, No, my son, not all of us go now lest we be too heavy to you. - and he breaches on him; but he wills to not go; and he blesses him. ²⁶ And Abi Shalom says, If not, I pray you, have my brother Amnon go with us. And the sovereign says to him, Why have him go with you? ²⁷ And Abi Shalom breaches on him to send Amnon away with all the sons of the sovereign. ²⁸ And Abi Shalom misvahs his lads, saying, Now see, when the heart of Amnon is good with wine, and I say to you, Smite Amnon! Deathify him! Awe not! I - misvah I you not? Strengthen! Sons of valour!

²⁴
GENEALOGY OF THE SONS OF SHIMON
The sons of Shimon: Nemu El and Yamin, Yarib, Zerach and Shaul; ²⁵ Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son. ²⁶ And the sons of Mishma: Hammu El his son, Zakkur his son, Shimi his son. ²⁷ And Shimi has sixteen sons and six daughters; but neither have his brothers many sons, nor their family abound as the sons of Yah Hudah. ²⁸ And they settle at Beer Sheba and Moladah and Hasar Shual ²⁹ and at Bilhah and at Esem and at Tolad ³⁰ and at Bethu El and at Hormah and at Siqlag ³¹ and at Beth Markaboth and Hasar Susim and at Beth Biri and at Shaarayim: these are their cities up to the reign of David.

³⁹ And they go to the entrance of Gedor to the rising of the valley to seek pasture for their flocks: ⁴⁰ and they find fat pasture and good and the land is broad of hands and at rest and serene; for they of Ham settled there from the first.

⁶⁵ And they give these cities by pebble from the rod of the sons of Yah Hudah and from the rod of the sons of Shimon and from the rod of the sons of Ben Yamin which they call by name.

²⁴ He who hates is recognized by his lips and places deceit within him; ²⁵ when his voice grants charism, trust him not; for there are seven abhorrences in his heart;

³ A stone is heavy and the sand weighty; and the vexation of a fool is heavier than both.

²⁹ peoples serve you and nations prostrate to you: be lord over your brothers and the sons of your mother prostrate to you: cursed are they who curse you and blessed are they who bless you.

³⁵ And she conceives again and births a son: and she says, At this time I spread hands to Yah Veh: so she calls his name Yah Hudah; and stays from birthing.

⁷ that behold, we are tying sheaves midst the field, and behold, my sheaf rises and also stations itself; and behold, your sheaves turn around and prostrate to my sheaf. ⁸ And his brothers say to him, In reigning, reign you over us? - in reigning, reign over us? - and they hate him yet again for his dreams and for his words. ⁹ And he dreams yet another dream and describes it to his brothers and says, Behold, I dreamed a dream again; and behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars prostrate to me. ¹⁰ And he describes it to his father and to his brothers: and his father rebukes him and says to him, What is this dream you dreamed? In coming, come we - I and your mother and your brothers to prostrate to you to the earth? :

⁶ and Yoseph is the governor over the land and he markets the kernels to all the people of the land. And the brothers of Yoseph come and prostrate with their nostrils to the earth:

¹⁸ Then Yah Hudah comes near to him and says, Oh my adoni, let your servant word a word in the ears of my adoni and kindle not your wrath against your servant: for you are even as Paroh. ¹⁹ My adoni asked his servants, saying, Have you a father, or a brother? ²⁰ And we say to my adoni, We have a father - aged and a child of his old age, a youngster; and his brother died: and he alone remains of his mother; and his father loves him. ²¹ And you said to your servants, Descend him to me, that I set my eyes on him. ²² And we said to my adoni, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he leaves his father, he dies. ²³ And you said to your servants, If your youngest brother descend not with you, you see my face never again. ²⁴ And so be it, we ascended to your servant my father and we told him the words of my adoni. ²⁵ And our father said, Return and market us kernels for a little food. ²⁶ And we said, We cannot descend: if our youngest brother be with us, then we descend: for we see not the face of the man unless our youngest brother is with us. ²⁷ And your servant my father said to us, You know that my woman birthed me two: ²⁸ and the one goes out from me and I say, In tearing, he is torn; and I see him not since: ²⁹ and if you take this also from my face and mischief befalls him, you descend my grayness with evil to sheol. ³⁰ And now, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us; seeing that his soul is bound up in the soul of the lad; ³¹ so be it, when he sees not the lad, he dies: and your servants descend the grayness of your servant our father with grief to sheol. ³² For your servant pledged for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to you, then I have sinned against my father all days. ³³ And now, I beseech you, instead of the lad, sit your servant as servant to my adoni; and ascend the lad with his brothers. ³⁴ For how ascend I to my father and the lad is not with me? lest perhaps I see the evil that finds my father.

¹² And the sons of Yah Hudah: Er and Onan and Shelah and Peres and Zerach and Er and Onan die in the land of Kenaan. And the sons of Peres: Hesron and Hamul.

²⁷ their mustered of the rod of Yah Hudah: seventy-four thousand and six hundred.

¹⁴ The first to pull stakes; the standard of the camp of the sons of Yah Hudah by their hosts: and over his host: Nahshon the son of Ammi Nadab;

²² these are the families of Yah Hudah according to their mustered - seventy-six thousand and five hundred.

⁷ And this for Yah Hudah: and he says, Hear, O Yah Veh, the voice of Yah Hudah and bring him to his people: greaten his hands for him; and become his help from his tribulators.

²⁴ And so be it, they bring those sovereigns to Yah Shua; and Yah Shua calls for all the men of Yisra El, and says to the commanders of the men of war who come with him, Approach! Set your feet on the necks of these sovereigns. - and they approach and set their feet on their necks.

¹
YISRA EL CAPTURES KENAAN
And so be it, after the death of Yah Shua, the sons of Yisra El ask Yah Veh, saying, Who ascends for us against the Kenaaniy to begin to fight against them? ² And Yah Veh says, Yah Hudah ascend: behold, I give the land into his hand.

¹⁸ And the sons of Yisra El rise and ascend to the house of Elohim and ask counsel of Elohim, and say, Who of us goes to war at the beginning against the sons of Ben Yamin? And Yah Veh says, Yah Hudah, at the beginning.

³ So all the elders of Yisra El come to the sovereign to Hebron; and sovereign David cuts a covenant with them in Hebron at the face of Yah Veh: and they anoint David sovereign over Yisra El.

⁴¹ you give me the necks of my enemies - to exterminate them who hate me.

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.

¹
THE GOVERNORS OF SHELOMOH
And sovereign Shelomoh is sovereign over all Yisra El; ² and these are his governors: Azar Yah the son of Sadoq, priest; ³ Eli Horeph and Achiy Yah the sons of Shisha, scribes; Yah Shaphat the son of Achiy Lud, remembrancer; ⁴ and Bena Yah the son of Yah Yada, over the host; and Sadoq and Abi Athar, priests; ⁵ and Azar Yah the son of Nathan, over the stationed; and Zabud the son of Nathan, priest and friend of the sovereign; ⁶ and Achiy Shar, over the household; and Adoni Ram the son of Abda, over the vassal. ⁷
THE STATIONED OF SHELOMOH
And Shelomoh has twelve stationed over all Yisra El to sustain the sovereign and his household; each one sustains one month per year; ⁸ and these are their names: Ben Hur, in mount Ephrayim; ⁹ Ben Deqer, in Maqas and in Shaalbim; and Beth Shemesh and Elon Beth Hanan; ¹⁰ Ben Hesed, in Arubboth - also having Sochoh and all the land of Hepher; ¹¹ Ben Abi Nadab, in all the heights of Dor - having Taphath the daughter of Shelomoh to woman; ¹² Baana the son of Achiy Lud - to him Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth Shaan beside Sarethan below Yizre El from Beth Shaan to Abel Mecholah beyond Yoqme Am; ¹³ Ben Geber, in Ramoth Gilad - to him the living areas of Yair the son of Menash Sheh in Gilad - to him the boundaries of Argob in Bashan - sixty great cities with walls and copper bars; ¹⁴ Achiy Nadab the son of Iddo has Machanayim; ¹⁵ Achiy Maas in Naphtali - he also takes Bosmath the daughter of Shelomoh to woman; ¹⁶ Baanah the son of Hushay in Asher and in Bealoth; ¹⁷ Yah Shaphat the son of Paruach in Yissachar; ¹⁸ Shimi the son of Ela in Ben Yamin; ¹⁹ Geber the son of Uri in the land of Gilad - in the land of Sichon sovereign of the Emoriy and of Og sovereign of Bashan - and he is the one prefect in the land. ²⁰
THE REIGN OF SHELOMOH
Yah Hudah and Yisra El - as many as the sand by the sea in abundance eating and drinking and cheering: ²¹ and Shelomoh is sovereign over all the sovereigndoms from the river to the land of the Peleshethiy and to the border of Misrayim: they bring offerings and serve Shelomoh all the days of his life. ²²
THE BREAD OF SHELOMOH
And the bread of Shelomoh for one day is thirty kors of flour and sixty kors of flour, ²³ ten fat oxen and twenty oxen from the pastures, and a hundred flocks, beside harts and gazelles and fallow deer and foddered fowl: ²⁴ for he subjugates over all on this side the river from Tiphsach even to Azzah - over all the sovereigns on this side the river: and he has shalom from all his servants all around him: ²⁵ and Yah Hudah and Yisra El settle confidently every man under his vine and under his fig tree from Dan even to Beer Sheba all the days of Shelomoh: ²⁶ and Shelomoh has forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots and twelve thousand cavalry: ²⁷ and those who are stationed sustain sovereign Shelomoh and all those who approach the table of sovereign Shelomoh every man in his month: they lack no word: ²⁸ they bring barley and straw for the horses and stallions to the place where they are every man according to his judgment. ²⁹
THE WISDOM OF SHELOMOH
And Elohim gives Shelomoh wisdom and discernment mightily abounding; and broadness of heart as the sand on lip of the sea: ³⁰ and the wisdom of Shelomoh abounds above the wisdom of all the sons of the east land and all the wisdom of Misrayim: ³¹ and he enwisens above all humanity - of Ethan the Zerachiy and Heman and Kalkol and Darda the sons of Machol: and his fame is all around the goyim: ³² and he words three thousand proverbs and his songs a thousand and five: ³³ he words of trees from the cedar tree in Lebanon even to the hyssop emerging from the wall: he words of animals and of flyers and of creepers and of fishes: ³⁴ and from all people they come to hear the wisdom of Shelomoh - from all sovereigns of the earth, to hear of his wisdom.

² for Yah Hudah prevails mightily above his brothers and of him the eminence; and the firstrights are to Yoseph.

THE WARRIORS OF DAVID OF SIQLAG
And these come to David to Siqlag while they are restrained because of the face of Shaul the son of Qish: and they are among the mighty - helpers of the war: ² they are kissed with bows and can use both the right and the left in stones and arrows from a bow - of the brothers of Shaul - of Ben Yamin. ³ The head is Achiy Ezer and Yah Ash the sons of Shemaah the Gibathiy, and Yezav El and Pelet the sons of Azmaveth, and Berachah and Yah Hu the Anathothiy, ⁴ and Yishma Yah the Giboniy mighty among the thirty and over the thirty, and Yirme Yah and Yachazi El, and Yah Hanan and Yah Zabad the Gederahiy, ⁵ El Uzay and Yerimoth and Beal Yah and Shemar Yah and Shaphat Yah the Haruphiy, ⁶ El Qanah and Yishshi Yah and Azar El and Yah Ezer and Yashob Am the Qorachiy, ⁷ and Yoelah and Zebad Yah the sons of Yerocham of Gedor. ⁸ And of the Gadiy the mighty of valour and men of hostility separate themselves to David to the hunthold to the wilderness for the war - who line up shield and javelin whose faces are the faces of lions and as swift as the gazelles on the mountains: ⁹ Ezer the head, Obad Yah the second, Eli Ab the third, ¹⁰ Mishmannah the fourth, Yirme Yah the fifth, ¹¹ Attay the sixth, Eli El the seventh, ¹² Yah Hanan the eighth, El Zabad the ninth, ¹³ Yirme Yah the tenth, Machbenaiy the eleventh: ¹⁴ these are of the sons of Gad, heads of the host: one of the least is over a hundred and the greatest over a thousand: ¹⁵ these are they who pass over Yarden in the first month, when it overflows all its banks; and they cause all in the valley to flee - from the rising and from the dusk. ¹⁶ And some of the sons of Ben Yamin and Yah Hudah come to the hunthold to David. ¹⁷ And David goes out at their face and answers and says to them, If you come to me in shalom to help me, my heart becomes yours: but if to hurl me to my tribulators - seeing there is no violence in my palms, the Elohim of our fathers sees and reproves. ¹⁸ And the spirit enrobes Amasay the head of the tertiaries, To you, O David and with you, son of Yishay, shalom; shalom to you; and shalom to your helpers; for your Elohim helps you. - and David takes them and gives them as heads of the troop. ¹⁹ And some of Menash Sheh fall to David when he comes with the Peleshethiy to war against Shaul; and they help them not: for by counsel the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy send him away saying, He falls, with our heads, to his adoni Shaul. ²⁰ And he goes to Siqlag; and they of Menash Sheh, Adnah and Yah Zabad and Yedia El and Michah El and Yah Zabad and Eli Hu and Sillethay - heads of the thousands of Menash Sheh fall to him: ²¹ and they help David against the troop: for they are all mighty of valour - governors in the host: ²² for at that time, day by day, they come to David to help him; until it is a great camp like the camp of Elohim. ²³
THE WARRIORS OF DAVID OF THE SONS OF YISRA EL
And these are the numbers of the heads equipped to the hostility who come to David to Hebron to turn the sovereigndom of Shaul to him according to the mouth of Yah Veh ²⁴ - the sons of Yah Hudah who bear shield and javelin: six thousand and eight hundred equipped to the hostility. ²⁵ Of the sons of Shimon - mighty of valour for the hostility: seven thousand and one hundred. ²⁶ Of the sons of Levi: four thousand and six hundred; ²⁷ and Yah Yada is eminent of the Aharoniy and three thousand and seven hundred with him; ²⁸ and Sadoq - a lad mighty of valour and twenty-two governors of the house of his father. ²⁹ And of the sons of Ben Yamin the brothers of Shaul: three thousand; for until now the increase guarded the guard of the house of Shaul. ³⁰ And of the sons of Ephrayim: twenty thousand and eight hundred - mighty of valour; men of name throughout the house of their fathers. ³¹ And of the half rod of Menash Sheh: eighteen thousand - appointed by name to come and have David reign. ³² And of the sons of Yissachar who know discernment of the times; to know what Yisra El ought to work; their heads: two hundred; with all their brothers at their mouth. ³³ Of Zebulun such as go to hostility; lined up for battle with all instruments of war: fifty thousand who line up for battle without a double heart. ³⁴ And of Naphtali: a thousand governors and thirty-seven thousand with them with shield and spear. ³⁵ And of the Daniy: twenty-eight thousand and six hundred lined up in battle. ³⁶ And of Asher such as go to hostility to line up for battle: forty thousand. ³⁷ And on the other side of Yarden, of the Reu Beniy and the Gadiy and of the half scion of Menash Sheh; a hundred and twenty thousand; with all manner of instruments of hostility for the war. ³⁸ All these men of war, who line up for battle, come to Hebron with a heart of shalom to have David reign over all Yisra El: and all the rest also of Yisra El are of one heart to have David reign. ³⁹ And there they are with David - three days -eating and drinking: for their brothers had prepared for them. ⁴⁰ And those near them bring bread on he burros and on camels and on mules and on oxen; and food, flour, lumps of figs and raisincakes and wine and oil and oxen and flocks in abundance to Yissachar and Zebulun and Naphtali; for there is cheer in Yisra El.

¹² and city by city, shields and javelins; and strengthens them aboundingly mighty; and he has Yah Hudah and Ben Yamin. ¹³ And the priests and the Leviym in all Yisra El stand by him from every border: ¹⁴ for the Leviym left their suburbs and their possession and come to Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem: because Yarob Am and his sons abandoned them from priesting to Yah Veh. ¹⁵ And he stands priests for the bamahs and for the bucks and for the calves he works: ¹⁶ and after them, from all the scions of Yisra El, such as give their hearts to seek Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, come to Yeru Shalem to sacrifice to Yah Veh Elohim of their fathers. ¹⁷ And they strengthen the sovereigndom of Yah Hudah and strengthen Rechab Am the son of Shelomoh: for three years they walk in the way of David and Shelomoh.

⁸ And Asa, has from Yah Hudah, mighty of valour who bear shields and javelins three hundred thousand; and from Ben Yamin, who bear bucklers and arched bows two hundred and eighty thousand. - all these mighty of valour.

⁹ and he gathers all Yah Hudah and Ben Yamin and the sojourners with them from Ephrayim and Menash Sheh and from Shimon - for they fall to him from Yisra El in abundance, when they see Yah Veh his Elohim is with him.

² and he gives the valiant in all the fortified cities of Yah Hudah; and gives stations in the land of Yah Hudah and in the cities of Ephrayim Asa his father captured.

¹⁴ and these are the mustered according to the house of their fathers: of Yah Hudah, the governors of thousands: Adnah the governor and with him - three hundred thousand mighty of valour; ¹⁵ and at his hand: Yah Hanan the governor; and with him - two hundred and eighty thousand; ¹⁶ and at his hand: Amas Yah the son of Zichri who volunteers to Yah Veh; and with him mighty of valour - two hundred thousand;

¹¹ Only, men of Asher and Menash Sheh and of Zebulun humble themselves and come to Yeru Shalem.

⁴⁰ you give me the necks of my enemies; to exterminate them who hate me. ⁴¹ They cry, and there is no savior; - to Yah Veh, but he answers them not. ⁴² And I purlverize them as the dust at the face of the wind; I pour them out as mire in the outways. ⁴³ You slip me away from the strivings of the people; and you set me at the head of the goyim: a people I know not serve me.

¹ To His Eminence; On Strummer; A Psalm by Asaph: A Song. In Yah Hudah, Elohim is known; in Yisra El, his name is great;

⁶⁸ but chose the scion of Yah Hudah - the mount Siyon he loved: ⁶⁹ and he built his hallowed refuge lofty - eternal as the earth he founded. ⁷⁰ He chose David his servant and took him from the flock folds; ⁷¹ after the sucklings, great with young, he brought him to tend Yaaqov his people and Yisra El his inheritance;

⁷ Of the increase of his dominion and shalom there is no end, on the throne of David and on his sovereigndom; to establish and to support with judgment and with justness from henceforth - even eternally. The zeal of Yah Veh Sabaoth works this.

²⁹ As they see vanity for you, as they divine a lie for you, to give you on the necks of the pierced - of the wicked whose day approaches, the time of the perversity of the end.

¹⁰ that in the name of Yah Shua every knee bows - of the heavenlies and earthly and subterranean; ¹¹ and that every tongue avow that Yah Shua Messiah is Adonay, to the glory of Elohim the Father. ^{Isaiah 45:22,23}

¹⁴ For it was pre-evidenced that our Adonay rose from Yah Hudah; to which scion Mosheh spake naught concerning priesthood. ^{Genesis 49:8, 10}

¹³ from now on awaiting until the placing of his enemies for his footstool. ^{Psalm 110:1}

⁵ And one of the elders words to me, Weep not: behold, the Lion, being of the scion of Yah Hudah, the Root of David, triumphed to open the scroll and to loose the seven seals thereof.

¹⁵
THE SEVENTH TRUMP
And the seventh angel trumps; and mega voices become in the heavens, wording, The sovereigndoms of this cosmos are become to Yah Veh and his the Messiah; and he reigns to the eons of the eons.

²⁴ Behold, the people rise as a roaring lion and lift himself as a lion: he lies not down until he eats of the prey and drinks the blood of the pierced.

⁹ He kneels, he lies down as a lion - as a roaring lion - who rouses him? Blessed, he who blesses you and cursed, he who curses you.

⁵ when she sees, that in waiting, her hope destructs, she takes one of her whelps, and sets him a whelp:

⁴ they give not their exploits to return to their Elohim: for the spirit of whoredoms is midst them and they know not Yah Veh:

¹⁴ For I am to Ephrayim as a roaring lion and as a whelp to the house of Yah Hudah: I - I tear and go away; I bear away; and no one rescues:

⁸ And so be the remnant of Yaaqov among the goyim among many people - as a lion among the animals of the forest - as a whelp among the droves of flocks: who, if he passes through, both tramples and tears; and no one rescues.

²⁴ Then the completion/shalom when he delivers the sovereigndom to Elohim - even the Father; when he inactivates all hierarchies and all authority and dynamis.

¹⁸ the governors dig the well, the volunteers of the people dig, by the statute setters with their crutches. And from the wilderness they go to Mattanah:

¹⁷ I see him, but not now: I observe him, but not near: a Star treads from Yaaqov and a Scion rises from Yisra El and strikes the edges of Moab and undermines all the sons of Sheth.

⁵⁷ and toward her fetus coming from between her feet and toward the sons she births: for she eats them covertly for lack of all in the siege and distress, wherewith your enemies distress you in your portals.

⁶ And I - I anointed my sovereign on my holy mount Siyon; ⁷ I scribe the statute! Yah Veh says to me, You are my Son/Ben ^{\super *}; this day I birthed you. ^{*Ben; cp 2:12 8} Ask of me; and I give you the goyim for your inheritance and the finalities of the earth for your possession. ⁹ You, shatter them with a scion of iron; splatter them as a formed instrument.

⁷ Gilad is mine and Menash Sheh is mine; and Ephrayim is the stronghold of my head: Yah Hudah is my statute setter;

⁸ He subjugates from sea to sea - from the river to the finalities of the earth: ⁹ desertdwellers kneel at his face and his enemies lick the dust. ¹⁰ The sovereigns of Tarshish and of the islands return offerings; the sovereigns of Sheba and Seba oblate their hire; ¹¹ yes, all sovereigns prostrate ere in front of him; all goyim serve him.

⁸ Galad is mine; Menash Sheh is mine; Ephrayim is the stronghold of my head; Yah Hudah is my statute setter;

⁶
A CHILD IS BORN, A SON IS GIVEN
For a child is birthed to us; a son is given to us - and the dominion is on his shoulder: and he calls his name ^{\super *} Marvelous, Counsellor, Mighty El, Eternal Father, Governor of Shalom. ^*singular

THE BRANCH
And a Rod comes from the stump of Yishay and a Branch from his roots bears fruit: {\cp2 cp Yesha Yah 11:10} ² and the spirit of Yah Veh rests upon him - the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge, and of the awe of Yah Veh; ³ and scents him in the awe of Yah Veh: and he neither judges after the sight of his eyes, nor reproves after the hearing of his ears: ⁴ and with justness he judges the poor, and reproves with straightness for the humble of the earth: and he smites the earth with the scion of his mouth and with the spirit of his lips he executes the wicked: ⁵ and justness is the girdle of his loins, and trustworthiness the girdle of his loins.

¹⁰ And in that day, a Root of Yishay stands for an ensign of the people; to him the goyim seek: and his rest becomes honorable. cp Yesha Yah 11:1

¹² and he lifts an ensign for the goyim and gathers the overthrown of Yisra El and gathers the scattered of Yah Hudah from the four wings of the earth: ¹³ and turns aside the envy of Ephrayim, and cuts off the tribulators of Yah Hudah: neither Ephrayim envies Yah Hudah, nor Yah Hudah tribulates Ephrayim:

²² For Yah Veh our judge; Yah Veh our statute setter; Yah Veh our sovereign; he saves us.

¹
THE SERVANT OF YAH VEH
Behold my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul is pleased: I give my spirit on him; he brings judgment to the goyim:

³ he neither breaks a crushed stalk nor quenches he the smoking flax; he brings forth judgment to truth: ⁴ he neither dims nor crushes until he sets judgment in the earth: and the islands await his torah.

⁶ And he says, It is trifling that you become my servant to raise up the scions of Yaaqov; and to restore the guarded of Yisra El: I also give you for a light to the goyim, to become my salvation to the end of the earth. ⁷ Thus says Yah Veh, the Redeemer of Yisra El, his Holy One, to the despised in soul to the abhorrent of the goyim to a servant of sovereigns, Sovereigns see and rise; and governors prostrate; because of Yah Veh who is trustworthy - the Holy One of Yisra El, and he chooses you.

²² Thus says Adonay Yah Veh, Behold, I lift my hand to the goyim and lift my ensign to the people: and they bring your sons in the bosom and bear your daughters on their shoulders: ²³ and sovereigns become your nurturers and their governesses your sucklers: they prostrate to you with their nostrils toward the earth and lick up the dust of your feet; and you know I - Yah Veh: for they who await me shame not.

⁴ Behold, I give him - a witness to the nations - eminent and misvaher to the nations. ⁵ Behold, you call a goyim whom you know not, and goyim whom know you not run to you because of Yah Veh your Elohim, and for the Holy One of Yisra El; for he adorns you.

THE HONOR OF SIYON
Rise! Enlighten! For your light comes and the honor of Yah Veh rises on you:

³ And the goyim come to your light and sovereigns to the brilliance of your rising. ⁴ Lift your eyes all round, and see: they all gather; they come to you: your sons come from afar and your daughters nurture at your side. 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:

¹¹ Behold, Yah Veh hearkens to the end of the world, You, say to the daughter of Siyon, Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his hire is with him and his deeds at his face!

⁵ Behold, days come, - an oracle of Yah Veh that I raise to David a just Sprout, and a Sovereign reigns and comprehends and works judgment and justness in the earth. ⁶ In his days Yah Hudah is saved, and Yisra El dwells confidently: and this is his name whereby he is called, Yah Veh Sidqenuw.

²¹ And their mighty become from themselves, and their sovereign proceeds from their midst: and I have him approach; and he approaches to me: for who is this who pleases his heart to approach to me? - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹¹ and she has rods of strength for the scions of them who reign; and her height heightens among the foliage, and she is seen in her height with the abundance of her branches:

¹⁴ and fire comes from a rod of her branches, which consumes her fruit, so that she has no rod of strength to become a scion to reign. This is a lamentation; and becomes for a lamentation.

²⁷ Perverted! Perverted! Perverted! I set it: and so be it no more, until he comes whose judgment it is; and I give it.

²⁵ So know and comprehend, that from the proceeding of the word to restore and to build Yeru Shalem to the Messiah, the Eminent is seven weeks and sixty-two weeks - to restore and rebuild the broadway and the trench even in times of distress.

¹² Ephrayim surrounds me with deceptions and the house of Yisra El with deceit: and Yah Hudah rambles on with El and is trustworthy with the holy.

⁷ and I quake all goyim and the desire of all goyim approaches: and I fill this house with honor, says Yah Veh Sabaoth.

¹¹ And many goyim join Yah Veh in that day, and become my people: and I dwell midst you; and you know that Yah Veh Sabaoth sent me to you:

²⁰ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: People and settlers of many cities still come: ²¹ and the settlers of one come to one, saying, We go speedily to stroke the face of Yah Veh and to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth: I go - even I. ²² Yes, many people and mighty goyim come to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth in Yeru Shalem and to stroke the face of Yah Veh. ²³ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: In those days, so be it, ten men from all tongues of the goyim, take hold - even take hold of the wing of a man - a Yah Hudiy, saying, We go with you: for we hear that Elohim is with you.

¹¹ And he passes through the sea with tribulation and smites the waves in the sea; and all the deeps of the river wither: and they bring down the pomp of Ashshur, and the scion of Misrayim turns aside:

²¹ And she is to birth a son; and you, call his name Yah Shua: for he saves his people from their sins.

⁵ While he still speaks, behold, a brightly lighted cloud overshadows them: and behold, a voice from the cloud, wording, This is my beloved Son, of whom I well-approve: Hear him!

⁹ and the multitudes preceding and following cry out, wording, Hoshia Na to the son of David: Eulogized - he who comes in the name of Yah Veh; Hoshia Na in the highests. ^{Psalm 118:25, 26}

³² and all goyim gather in front of him: and he sets them apart one from another, exactly as a shepherd sets apart his sheep from the goats:

³² He becomes mega and is called the Son of Elyon: and Yah Veh Elohim gives him the throne of his father David: ³³ and he reigns over the house of Yaaqov to the eons; and there is no finality of his sovereigndom.

³⁰ for my eyes see your salvation, ³¹ whom you prepared ` in front of the face of all people; ³² a light of apocalypse to the goyim and the glory of your people Yisra El.

⁷ and says to him, Go, wash in the pool of Shiloach, - which translates, Apostolized. So he goes his way and washes and comes seeing:

³² and I, whenever I am exalted from the earth, draw all men to me.

³¹ So Pilatos says to them, You take him and judge him according to your torah. So the Yah Hudiym say to him, We are not allowed to slaughter anyone:

¹² And from then on Pilatos seeks to release him: but the Yah Hudiym cry out, wording, Whenever you release this one, you are no friend of the kaisar: whoever makes himself a sovereign contradicts the kaisar.

¹⁵ And they cry out, Away! Away! Stake him! Pilatos words to them, Stake your Sovereign? The archpriests answer, We have no sovereign except the kaisar.

¹² And again, Yesha Yah words, And so be it, a root of Yishay; and he rises to rule over the goyim: in him the goyim hope. ^{Psalm 18:49, 117:1, Isaiah 11:1,10, 42:6,7}

¹⁰ For we must all manifest in front of the bamah of the Messiah; that each, through his body, receives according to what he transacted - whether good - whether evil.

²⁰
THE REIGN OF SHELOMOH
Yah Hudah and Yisra El - as many as the sand by the sea in abundance eating and drinking and cheering:

²⁵ and Yah Hudah and Yisra El settle confidently every man under his vine and under his fig tree from Dan even to Beer Sheba all the days of Shelomoh:

³² until I come and take you away to a land like your own land - a land of crop and juice a land of bread and vineyards a land of oil olive and of honey - to live and not die: and hearken not to Yechizqi Yah, who goads you, saying, Yah Veh rescues us.

¹
THE DAY OF YAH VEH
Who is this coming from Edom - with dazzling clothes from Bozrah? This who is esteemed in his robe strolling in the greatness of his force? I speaking in justness, great to save. ² Why are you red in your robe and your clothes as treading in the winefat? ³ I tread the press by myself; and of the people, no man is with me: and I tread them in my wrath and trample them in my fury: and I sprinkle their squeezings on my clothes and profane all my robe.

¹⁸ And so be it, in that day, the mountains drip squeezed juice; and the hills go with milk; and all the reservoirs of Yah Hudah go with waters; and a fountain goes from the house of Yah Veh and wets the wadi of Shittim.

⁴ and every man sits under his vine and under his fig tree; and no one trembles them: for the mouth of Yah Veh Sabaoth has worded.

¹⁴ And I say to him, Adonay, you know. And he says to me, These are they coming from mega tribulation who flowed their stoles and whitened their stoles in the blood of the Lamb:

¹⁸ to eat the flesh of sovereigns, and the flesh of chiliarchs, and the flesh of mighty, and the flesh of horses, and of those sitting on them, and the flesh of all - liberated and servant - minute and mega.

²⁹ Who has woe? Who has will? Who has contentions? Who has meditation? Who has wounds gratuitously? Who has flushness of eyes?

²⁰ and Leah says, Elohim endows me - a good endowment; this time my man dwells with me, because I birth him six sons: and she calls his name Zebulun.

¹⁸ And of Zebulun he says, Cheer, Zebulun, in your going out; and, Yissachar, in your tents. ¹⁹ They call the people to the mountain; there they sacrifice sacrifices of justness: for they suck of the bounty of the seas and of those covered and buried in the sand.

¹⁰
THE PEBBLE OF ZEBULUN And the third pebble ascends for the sons of Zebulun for their families: and the border of their inheritance is to Sarid: ¹¹ and their border ascends toward the sea and Maralah and reaches to Dabbesheth and reaches to the wadi at the face of Yoqne Am; ¹² and turns from Sarid eastward toward the rising sun to the border of Kisloth Tabor; and then goes to Daberath and ascends to Yaphia; ¹³ and from there passes along from the rising to Gittahhepher, to Eth Qasin and goes to Rimmon which is surveyed to Neah; ¹⁴ and the border surrounds it on the north to Hannathon: and the exits are in the valley of Yiphtach El; ¹⁵ Qattath and Nahallal and Shimron and Yidalah and Beth Lechem; - twelve cities with their courts. ¹⁶ - this is the inheritance of the sons of Zebulun for their families - these cities with their courts.

¹⁸ And Leah says, Elohim gave me my hire, because I gave my maid to my man: and she calls his name Yissachar.

¹⁸ And of Zebulun he says, Cheer, Zebulun, in your going out; and, Yissachar, in your tents.

¹⁷
THE PEBBLE OF YISSACHAR The fourth pebble goes to Yissachar for the sons of Yissachar for their families: ¹⁸ and their border is toward Yizre El and Kesulloth and Shunem ¹⁹ and Haphrayim and Shiyon and Anacharath ²⁰ and Rabbith and Qishyon and Abes ²¹ and Remeth and En Gannim and En Haddah and Beth Patses; ²² and the border reaches to Tabor and Shachasom and Beth Shemesh; and the exits of their border are at Yarden; - sixteen cities with their courts. ²³ - this is the inheritance of the rod of the sons of Yissachar for their families, the cities and their courts.

¹⁵ And the governors of Yissachar are with Deborah; as Yissachar, thus Baraq - sent on foot into the valley. As for the divisions of Reu Ben great are the statutes of heart. ¹⁶ Why seat you between the stalls? To hear the hisses of the droves? As for the divisions of Reu Ben great are the probings of heart.

¹
JUDGE TOLA
And after Abi Melech, Tola the son of Puah the son of Dodo a man of Yissachar rises to save Yisra El; and he settles in Shamir in mount Ephrayim;

³² And of the sons of Yissachar who know discernment of the times; to know what Yisra El ought to work; their heads: two hundred; with all their brothers at their mouth.

¹⁵ And the former name of Hebron was Qiryath Arba; - a great human among the Anaqiy. And the land rests from war.

¹¹ and the land rests forty years: and Othni El the son of Qenaz dies.

¹
THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH
And so be it, the sovereign settles in his house; and Yah Veh gives him rest all around from all his enemies.

⁶ I turn aside his shoulder from the burden; pass his palms from the boilers.

¹⁸ Son of humanity, Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel has his valiant to serve a great service against Sor: every head baldens and every shoulder peels: yet neither he nor his valiant have any hire from Sor for the service he served against it.

⁴ for they bind heavy and oppressive burdens and place them on the shoulders of humanity; but they themselves will to not wag them with one of their fingers:

⁶ and Rachel says, Elohim pleaded my cause and also heard my voice and gives me a son: so she calls his name Dan.

²⁵ And the standard of the camp of the sons of Dan pull stakes, and gather rearward of all the camps throughout their hosts; and over his host: Achi Ezer the son of Ammi Shaday.

²² And of Dan he says, Dan is the whelp of a lion: he leaps from Bashan.

²
THE BIRTH OF SHIMSHON FORETOLD
And so be it, there is some man of Sorah of the family of Daniy his name is Manoach; and his woman is sterile and births not.

²⁴
THE BIRTH OF SHIMSHON
And the woman births a son and calls his name Shimshon: and the lad grows and Yah Veh blesses him: ²⁵ and at times, the Spirit of Yah Veh begins to agitate him in the camp of Dan between Sorah and Eshtaol.

²⁰ And he judges Yisra El in the days of the Peleshethiy twenty years.

¹
THE SCION OF THE DANIY SEEK AN INHERITANCE
In those days, there is no sovereign in Yisra El; and in those days the scion of the Daniy seek an inheritance to settle; for up to that day, their inheritance fell not to them among the scions of Yisra El. ² And the sons of Dan send five men of their family of their men - sons of valour from Sorah and from Eshtaol to spy out the land and to probe it: and they say to them, Go, probe the land. And they come to mount Ephrayim, to the house of Michah Yah, and they stay there overnight:

²⁶ And the sons of Dan go their way; and Michah Yah sees they are too strong for him: and he turns face and turns back to his house. ²⁷ And they take what Michah Yah worked and the priest he had; and come to Laish - to a people resting confidently: and they smite them with the mouth of the sword and burn the city with fire:

¹
THE MARRIAGE OF SHIMSHON
And Shimshon descends to Timnah; and sees a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Peleshethiy: ² and he ascends and tells his father and his mother and says, I saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Peleshethiy; and now take her for me to woman. ³ And his father and his mother say to him, Is there not a woman among the daughters of your brothers or among all my people - that you go to take a woman of the uncircumcised Peleshethiy? And Shimshon says to his father, Take her for me; for she is straight in my eyes. ⁴ - and his father and his mother know not that it is of Yah Veh to seek an occasion against the Peleshethiy: at that time the Peleshethiy reign over Yisra El. ⁵ Then Shimshon and his father and his mother descend to Timnah and come to the vineyards of Timnah: and behold, a whelp of the lionesses roars in to meet him: ⁶ and the Spirit of Yah Veh prospers over him; and he cleaves him as he cleaves a kid with naught in his hand: but he tells not his father or his mother what he worked. ⁷ - and he descends and words with the woman; and she is straight in the eyes of Shimshon. ⁸ And after many days he returns to take her; and he turns aside to see the ruin of the lion: and behold, a witness of bees and honey in the body of the lion: ⁹ and he crumbles thereof in his palms and in walking, walks on eating and goes to his father and mother; and he gives them and they eat: but he tells them not that he crumbled the honey from the body of the lion. ¹⁰ And his father descends to the woman: and Shimshon works a banquet there; for thus the youths worked. ¹¹ And so be it, when they see him, they take thirty companions to be with him.

¹¹ And three thousand men of Yah Hudah descend to the cleft of the rock Etam; and say to Shimshon, Know you not that the Peleshethiy are sovereigns over us? What work you to us? And he says to them, As they work to me, thus I work to them. ¹² And Shimshon says to them, I now propound a riddle to you: if in telling, you tell me within the seven days of the banquet and find it out, I give you thirty wraps and thirty changes of clothes:

¹² And they say to him, We descend to bind you, to give you into the hand of the Peleshethiy. And Shimshon says to them, Oath to me, that you yourselves not encounter me. ¹³ and if you cannot tell me, you give me thirty wraps and thirty change of clothes. And they say to him, Propound your riddle, so that we hear it.

¹³ And they say to him, saying, No; but in binding, we bind you and give you into their hand: but in killing, we kill you not. - and they bind him with two new ropes and ascend him from the rock. ¹⁴ And he says to them, From the eater goes food and from the strong goes sweetness. - and they cannot in three days tell the riddle. ¹⁵ And so be it, on the seventh day, they say to the woman of Shimshon, Entice your man to tell to us the riddle; lest we burn you and the house of your father with fire. Have you called for us to dispossess us? Is it not so?

²² and after he is shaven the hair of his head begins to sprout. ²³
THE DEATH OF SHIMSHON
Then the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy gather together to sacrifice a great sacrifice to Dagon their elohim and to cheer: for they say, Our elohim gives Shimshon our enemy into our hand. ²⁴ And when the people see him, they halal their elohim: for they say, Into our hands our elohim delivers our enemy and the parcher of our land, who abounded our pierced. ²⁵ And so be it, when their hearts are goodly, they say, Call for Shimshon to entertain us. - and they call for Shimshon from the house of binding; and he entertains them: and they stand him between the pillars. ²⁶ And Shimshon says to the lad holding him by the hand, Allow me to touch the pillars whereupon the house is established - to lean on them. ²⁷ And the house is full of men and women; and all the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy are there - and on the roof about three thousand men and women see while Shimshon entertains. ²⁸ And Shimshon calls to Yah Veh, and says, O Adonay Yah Veh, remember me, I beseech you; strengthen me, I beseech you, only, this one time, O Elohim, to avenge the avengement of the Peleshethiy for my two eyes. ²⁹ And Shimshon clasps the two middle pillars whereon the house is established and whereon it is propped - the one with his right and the one with his left. ³⁰ And Shimshon says, O that my soul die with the Peleshethiy. - and he spreads himself with force; and the house falls on the ringleaders and on all the people therein. So the dead he deathified at his death are greater than those he deathified in his life.

²² And they become far removed from the house of Michah Yah; and the men in the houses near the house of Michah Yah cry out and adhere to the sons of Dan ²³ - and they cry out to the sons of Dan. And they turn their faces and say to Michah Yah, What is it to you, that you cry out? ²⁴ And he says, You take the elohim I worked and the priest and you go! What more have I? What is this that you say to me, What - to you? ²⁵ And the sons of Dan say to him, O that your voice not be heard among us, lest men bitter of soul encounter you and gather your soul with the souls of your household. ²⁶ And the sons of Dan go their way; and Michah Yah sees they are too strong for him: and he turns face and turns back to his house. ²⁷ And they take what Michah Yah worked and the priest he had; and come to Laish - to a people resting confidently: and they smite them with the mouth of the sword and burn the city with fire: 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. ³⁰ And the sons of Dan raise the sculptile: and Yah Nathan the son of Gershom the son of Menash Sheh - he and his sons are priests to the scion of Dan until the day of the exile of the land: ³¹ and they set up the sculptile Michah worked all the days the house of Elohim is in Shiloh.

³⁵ And of the Daniy: twenty-eight thousand and six hundred lined up in battle.

⁷ Who gives the salvation of Yisra El from Siyon? When Yah Veh returns the captivity of his people. Twirl, O Yaaqov! Cheer, O Yisra El!

⁵ aim me in your truth and teach me; for you are Elohim of my salvation: I await you all the day. ⁶ Remember, O Yah Veh, your tender mercies and your kind mercies; for they are eternal:

¹ To His Eminence; A Psalm by David. In awaiting, I await Yah Veh; he spreads to me and hears my cry:

¹ To His Eminence; Yeduthun/A Laudatory: A Psalm by David. Truly my soul is silent to Elohim; - from him is my salvation:

⁵ My soul, hush only on Elohim; for my hope is from him:

⁷ Have us see your mercy, O Yah Veh, and give us your salvation.

⁴¹ VAU. Your mercies come to me, O Yah Veh, your salvation, according to your sayings:

¹⁶⁶ O Yah Veh, I await your salvation and work your misvoth:

¹⁷⁴ I desire your salvation, O Yah Veh, and your torah is my delight:

² Behold, as the eyes of servants to the hand of their adonim; as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her lady; thus our eyes to Yah Veh our Elohim, until he grants us charism.

⁵ I await Yah Veh; my soul awaits: in his word I await.

¹⁷ And I await Yah Veh who hides his face from the house of Yaaqov, and I await him.

⁹ And in that day, it is said, Behold, this our Elohim; we awaited him and he saves us: this is Yah Veh; we awaited him; we twirl and cheer in his salvation.

¹⁸ and so Yah Veh waits to grant you charism - he is exalted to mercy you: for Yah Veh is an Elohim of judgment: blithesome - all who await him.

² O Yah Veh, grant us charism; we await you: become their arm mornings, and our salvation in the time of tribulation.

⁸ And now pledge, I beseech you, to my adoni the sovereign of Ashshur, and I give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to give riders on them.

²⁵ Yah Veh is good to them who await him - to the soul who seeks him:

⁷
THE SURVIVORS IN THE FINAL DAYS
And I - I watch to Yah Veh; I await Elohim of my salvation: my Elohim hears me.

⁴³ Yoseph of Rahmah, a respected counsellor, who also awaits the sovereigndom of Elohim, comes, and dares to go to Pilatos, and asks for the body of Yah Shua.

³⁰ And the angel says to her, Awe not, Miryam: for you find charism with Elohim.

²⁵ And behold, in Yeru Shalem, a human whose name is Shimon; and this human is just and well-received, awaiting the consolation of Yisra El: and the Holy Spirit is upon him.

³⁰ for my eyes see your salvation,

⁵¹ - who agreed not to their counsel and acts - of Rahmah, a city of the Yah Hudiym: who himself also awaited the sovereigndom of Elohim:

¹⁹ For the intense anticipation of the creature awaits the apocalypse of the sons of Elohim.

²⁵ And if we hope for what we see not, thus we, through endurance, await.

⁵
THE HOPE OF THE HOLY
For by Spirit, we await the hope of justness by trust.

¹⁰ and to await his Son from the heavens - Yah Shua - whom he raised from the dead who rescued us from the wrath to come.

¹¹ and Leah says, A Fortune comes: and she calls his name Gad.

¹⁶ And the sons of Gad: Siphyon and Haggi, Shuni and Esbon, Eriy and Arodiy and Ar Eli.

²⁰ And of Gad he says, Blessed by him who widens is Gad: he tabernacles as a lion and tears the arm - yes, the scalp: ²¹ and his eye is on the first for himself, because there, the allotment of the statute setter is covered; and he comes with the heads of the people: he works the justness of Yah Veh and his judgments with Yisra El.

⁸ - with whom the Reu Beniy and the Gadiy take their inheritance - which Mosheh gave them beyond Yarden from the rising; as Mosheh the servant of Yah Veh gave them;

¹
JUDGE TOLA
And after Abi Melech, Tola the son of Puah the son of Dodo a man of Yissachar rises to save Yisra El; and he settles in Shamir in mount Ephrayim; ² and he judges Yisra El twenty-three years: and dies and is entombed in Shamir. ³
JUDGE YAIR
And after him Yair a Giladiy rises and judges Yisra El twenty-two years; ⁴ and he has thirty sons who ride on thirty colts; and they have thirty cities in the land of Gilad called Havoth Yair to this day: ⁵ and Yair dies and is entombed in Qamon. ⁶
YISRA EL ABANDONS YAH VEH
And the sons of Yisra El add to work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh and serve Baalim and Ashtaroth and the elohim of Aram and the elohim of Sidon and the elohim of Moab and the elohim of the sons of Ammon and the elohim of the Peleshethiy and forsake Yah Veh and serve him not. ⁷ And Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El; and he sells them into the hands of the Peleshethiy and into the hands of the sons of Ammon: ⁸ and that year they harass and crush the sons of Yisra El eighteen years - all the sons of Yisra El beyond Yarden in the land of the Emoriy in Gilad: ⁹ and the sons of Ammon pass over Yarden to fight against Yah Hudah and against Ben Yamin and against the house of Ephrayim; so that Yisra El is mightily depressed. ¹⁰ And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh, saying, We sin against you because we forsake our Elohim and serve Baalim. ¹¹ And Yah Veh says to the sons of Yisra El, By the Misrayim and by the Emoriy by the sons of Ammon and by the Peleshethiy

¹⁸ also Malki Ram and Pedah Yah and Shenassar Yeqam Yah, Yah Shama and Nedab Yah. ¹⁹ And the sons of Pedah Yah: Zerub Babel and Shimi. And the sons of Zerub Babel: Meshullam and Hanan Yah and Shelomith their sister: ²⁰ and Hashubah and Ohel and Berech Yah and Hasad Yah, Yushab Hesed - five. ²¹ And the sons of Hanan Yah: Pelat Yah and Yesha Yah the sons of Repha Yah the sons of Arnan the sons of Obad Yah the sons of Shechan Yah. ²² And the sons of Shechan Yah: Shema Yah. And the sons of Shema Yah: Hattush and Yigal and Bariach, and Near Yah and Shaphat - six.

¹¹
GENEALOGY OF THE SONS OF GAD
And the sons of Gad settle opposite them in the land of Bashan to Salchah: ¹² Yah El the head and Shapham second and Yaanay and Shaphat in Bashan. ¹³ And their brothers of the house of their fathers: Michah El and Meshullam and Sheba and Yoray and Yakan and Zia and Heber - seven. ¹⁴ These are the sons of Abi Hail the son of Huri the son of Yaroach the son of Gilad the son of Michah El the son of Yeshishay the son of Yachdo the son of Buz: ¹⁵ Achiy the son of Abdi El the son of Guni is head of the house of their fathers. ¹⁶ And they settle in Gilad in Bashan and in her daughters and in all the suburbs of Sharon at their exits. ¹⁷ They all are genealogized in the days of Yah Tham sovereign of Yah Hudah and in the days of Yarob Am sovereign of Yisra El. ¹⁸ The sons of Reu Ben and the Gadiy and half the scion of Menash Sheh, sons of valour men able to bear buckler and sword and to arch with bow and taught in war, forty-four thousand seven hundred and sixty go out to the host: ¹⁹ and they work war with the Hagariy - with Yetur and Nephish and Nodab. ²⁰ And they are helped against them and the Hagariy are given into their hand with all who are with them: for they cry to Elohim in the war and intreat him; because they confide in him. ²¹ And they capture their chattel - of their camels fifty thousand and of flocks two hundred and fifty thousand and of he burros two thousand and of souls of humanity a hundred thousand. ²² For many fall pierced because the war is of Elohim: and they settle in their steads until the exile.

²⁶ And Elohim of Yisra El wakens the spirit of Pul sovereign of Ashshur and the spirit of Tilgath Pileser sovereign of Ashshur and he exiles them - even the Reu Beniy and the Gadiy and the half scion of Menash Sheh and brings them to Halach and Habor and Hara and to the river Gozan, to this day.

¹³ - and Leah says, Blithesome - I, for the daughters call me blithed: and she calls his name Asher.

¹⁷ And the sons of Asher: Yimnah and Yishvah and Yishviy and Beriah and Serach their sister. And the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malki El.

²⁴ And of Asher he says, Asher is blessed with sons; he becomes pleasing to his brothers and dips his foot in oil. ²⁵ Your shoes are iron and copper; and as your days, thus your strength.

²⁴
THE PEBBLE OF ASHER And the fifth pebble goes for the rod of the sons of Asher for their families: ²⁵ and their border is Helqath and Hali and Beten and Achshaph ²⁶ and Alam Melech and Amad and Misheal; and reaches to Karmel seaward and to Shichor Libnath; ²⁷ and turns toward the rising sun to Beth Dagon and reaches to Zebulun and to the valley of Yiphtach El toward the north of Beth Ha Emeq and Nei El and goes to Kabul on the left; 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; ³⁰ and Ummah and Apheq and Rechob; - twenty-two cities with their courts. ³¹ - this is the inheritance of the rod of the sons of Asher for to their families, - these cities with their courts.

⁸ and Rachel says, With wrestlings of Elohim I wrestled with my sister and I prevail! - and she calls his name Naphtali.

²⁴ And the sons of Naphtali: Yachse El and Guni and Yeser and Shillem.

²³ And of Naphtali he says, O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure and full of the blessing of Yah Veh: possess the seaward and the south.

³²
THE PEBBLE OF NAPHTALI The sixth pebble goes to the sons of Naphtali for the sons of Naphtali for their families: ³³ and their border is from Heleph; from Allon to Saanannim and Adami Neqeb and Yabne El to Laqqum; and the exits are at Yarden: ³⁴ and the border turns seaward to Aznoth Tabor and goes from thence to Huqqoq and reaches to Zebulun on the south; and reaches to Asher on the sea; and to Yah Hudah on Yarden toward the rising sun: ³⁵ and the fortified cities are Siddim, Ser and Hammath, Raqqath and Kinneroth ³⁶ and Adamah and Ramah and Hasor ³⁷ and Qedesh and Edrei and En Hasor ³⁸ and Yiron and Migdal El Horem and Beth Anath and Beth Shemesh; - nineteen cities with their courts. ³⁹ - this is the inheritance of the rod of the sons of Naphtali according to their families.

⁶ And she sends and calls Baraq the son of Abi Noam from Kedesh Naphtali and says to him, Misvahs not Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, Go and draw toward mount Tabor and take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun?

¹⁰ And Baraq cries to Zebulun and Naphtali to Qedesh; and he ascends with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah ascends with him.

¹⁸ Zebulun and Naphtali are a people exposed - to reproach their souls - to die in the high places of the field.

³³ He places my feet as the hinds and stands me on my bamahs; ³⁴ he teaches my hands to war so my arms bend a bow of steel.

¹⁵ The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali by the way of the sea, beyond Yarden, Galiyl of the goyim: ¹⁶ the people sitting in darkness see a mega light; and to them sitting in the region and shadow of death light rises. ^{Isaiah 9:1, 2}

²² And Elohim remembers Rachel and Elohim hearkens to her and opens her womb: ²³ and she conceives and births a son; and says, Elohim takes my disgrace. ²⁴ - and she calls his name Yoseph; and says, Yah Veh adds to me another son.

⁵² And he calls the name of the second Ephrayim: for Elohim has me to bear fruit in the land of my humiliation.

²⁷ and the sons of Yoseph birthed to him in Misrayim, are two souls: all the souls of the house of Yaaqov, coming into Misrayim, are seventy.

THE FINAL DAYS OF YISRA EL
And so be it, after these words, someone tells Yoseph, Behold, your father is sick: and he takes with him his two sons, Menash Sheh and Ephrayim.

⁵ And now your two sons, Ephrayim and Menash Sheh, birthed to you in the land of Misrayim until I came to you into Misrayim, they are mine; as Reu Ben and Shimon, they are mine:

¹⁶ the Angel who redeems me from all evil, bless the lads: and call my name on them and the name of my fathers Abraham and Yischaq: and that they spawn as fish into a multitude midst of the earth.

¹⁹ And his father refuses and says, I know, my son, I know: he also becomes a people and he also greatens: but his younger brother becomes greater than he and his seed becomes a fulness of goyim. ²⁰ And he blesses them that day, saying, In you, Yisra El blesses, saying, Elohim sets you as Ephrayim and as Menash Sheh: and he sets Ephrayim at the face of Menash Sheh.

¹³ And of Yoseph he says, Blessed of Yah Veh be his land, for the preciousnesses of the heavens; for the dew and for the abyss that crouches beneath; ¹⁴ and for the preciousnesses produced by the sun; and for the preciousnesses thrust by the moon; ¹⁵ and for the tops of the ancient mountains; and for the preciousnesses of the eternal hills; ¹⁶ and for the preciousnesses of the earth and fulness thereof; and for the pleasure of him who tabernacles in the bush: it comes on the head of Yoseph and on the scalp of him who was a Separatist from his brothers. ¹⁷ His majesty is the firstling of his ox and his horns the horns of a reem: with them he butts the people together to the finality of the earth: and they are the myriads of Ephrayim and they are the thousands of Menash Sheh.

THE BOUNDARIES OF YOSEPH
And the pebble of the sons of Yoseph goes from Yarden by Yericho to the water of Yericho from the rising to the wilderness; and ascends from Yericho in mount Beth El; ² and goes from Beth El to Luz and passes along to the borders of Arki to Ataroth; 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. ⁴ So the sons of Yoseph, Menash Sheh and Ephrayim, take their inheritance. 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; ⁶ and the border goes toward the sea to Michmethah on the north; and the border goes around from the rising to Taanath Shiloh and passes by it from the rising to Yanochah; ⁷ and descends from Yanochah to Ataroth and to Naarah and reaches to Yericho and goes out at Yarden; ⁸ the border goes from Tappuach seaward to the wadi Qanah; the exits are at the sea. - this is the inheritance of the rod of the sons of Ephrayim for their families. ⁹ and the separate cities for the sons of Ephrayim among the inheritance of the sons of Menash Sheh - all the cities with their courts. 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.

¹⁴ And the sons of Yoseph word to Yah Shua, saying, Why give you me but one pebble and one boundary of inheritance? I - a great people whom Yah Veh blesses until now! ¹⁵ And Yah Shua says to them, If you are a great people, ascend to the forest and cut down for yourself there in the land of the Perizziy and of the Rephaim - if mount Ephrayim is too pressed for you. ¹⁶ And the sons of Yoseph say, We find that the mountain is not for us: and all the Kenaaniy who settle in the land of the valley have chariots of iron - they of Beth Shaan and her daughters and they of the valley of Yizre El. ¹⁷ And Yah Shua says to the house of Yoseph - to Ephrayim and to Menash Sheh saying, You art a great people and have great force: you have not one pebble

BOOK I
Blithe - the man who neither walks in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor settles in the settlement of the scornful. ² But his delight is in the torah of Yah Veh; and in his torah he meditates day and night; ³ and being as a tree transplanted by the rivulets of water, giving his fruit in his time: his leaf withers not; and whatever he works, prospers.

¹ A Song of Degrees. Blithed - every one who awes Yah Veh; who walks in his ways:

³ - your woman as a fruitbearing vine by the flanks of your house: your sons as olive transplants surrounding your table.

⁴ And when his brothers see that their father loves him more than all his brothers they hate him; and cannot word shalom to him.

¹⁸
\ul CONSPIRACY AGAINST YOSEPH ul0 And when they see him afar off, even ere he approaches them, they conspire against him to deathify him:

²⁴ and they take him and cast him into a well: and the well is empty - no water therein:

²⁸ And men pass by - Midyaniy merchants; and they draw and ascend Yoseph from the well and sell Yoseph to the Yishma Eliy for twenty silver: and they bring Yoseph into Misrayim. :

⁷ And so be it, after these words, that the woman of his adoni lifts her eyes on Yoseph; and she says, Lie with me. ⁸ But he refuses, and says to the woman of his adoni, Behold, my master perceives not what is with me in the house and he gives all he has into my hand; ⁹ no one in this house is greater than I; and he withholds naught from me except you, because you are his woman: how then work I this great evil and sin against Elohim? ¹⁰ And so be it, as she words to Yoseph day by day, he hearkens not to her, to lie beside her, or to be with her: ¹¹ and so be it, this day, he goes into the house to work his work; and there no man of the men of the house is within the house: ¹² and she captures him by his clothes, saying, Lie with me! - and he leaves his clothes in her hand and flees and gets out. ¹³ And so be it, when she sees he leaves his clothes in her hand, and flees, ¹⁴ she calls to the men of her house and says to them, saying, See, he brings a man to us - a Hebrew to ridicule us; he comes in to me to lie with me and I call with a great voice: ¹⁵ and so be it, when he hears me lift my voice and call, he leaves his clothes beside me and flees and gets out. ¹⁶ - and she sets his clothes beside her until his adoni comes home. ¹⁷ And she words to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom you brought to us, came in to me, to ridicule me: ¹⁸ and so be it, as I lift up my voice and call, he leaves his clothes beside me and flees. ¹⁹ And so be it, when his adoni hears the words his woman words to him, saying, After this word your servant worked to me - his wrath kindles. ²⁰ And the adoni of Yoseph takes him and gives him into the tower house, a place where the bound of the sovereign are bound: and there he is in the tower house.

²¹ And they say man to brother, We are truly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the tribulation of his soul when he besought us and we hearkened not; so this tribulation comes on us.

³ who pointen their tongue as a sword and aim their arrows, bitter words:

¹³ In overthrowing, you overthrew me that I fell; and Yah Veh helped me.

³³ I speak these to you that you have shalom in me. In the cosmos you have tribulation: but, Courage! I triumph over the cosmos.

²² establishing the souls of the disciples, and beseeching them to remain in the trust; and that we must through much tribulation enter the sovereigndom of Elohim.

¹⁰
ELOHIM CONFIRMS THE NAME YISRA EL
And Elohim says to him, Your name is Yaaqov: your name is no more called Yaaqov, but Yisra El is your name: and he calls his name Yisra El. ¹¹ And Elohim says to him, I - El Shadday: bear fruit and abound; a goyim and a congregation of goyim become from you; and sovereigns come from your loins:

⁵ and now, neither contort nor inflame your eyes, that you sold me here: for Elohim sent me from your face to enliven.

⁷ and Elohim sent me from your face to set of you a survivor in the earth and to preserve your lives by a great escape.

¹¹ and there I nourish you: for there are yet five years of famine; lest you and your household and all that you have, become dispossessed.

¹² And Yoseph nourishes his father and his brothers and all the household of his father with bread, according to the mouths of their toddlers:

²¹ And now, awe not: I nourish you and your toddlers. - and he sighs over them and words to their heart.

⁶ And he says, I - Elohim of your father; Elohim of Abraham; Elohim of Yischaq and Elohim of Yaaqov. And Mosheh hides his face; for he awes to look on Elohim.

¹⁶ Yah Veh, Elohim of the spirits of all flesh, muster a man over the witness ¹⁷ to go out at their face and go in at their face and to lead them out and to bring them in; so that the witness of Yah Veh become not as flocks having no tender. ¹⁸ And Yah Veh says to Mosheh, Take Yah Shua the son of Nun, a man in whom the Spirit is and prop your hand on him;

⁴ The Rock - his deed is integrious: for all his ways are judgment: El of trust and without wickedness, just and straight is he.

⁹ And Yah Shua the son of Nun is full of the spirit of wisdom; for Mosheh had propped his hands on him: and the sons of Yisra El hearken to him and work as Yah Veh misvahed Mosheh.

¹
YAH VEH MISVAHS YAH SHUA And so be it, after the death of Mosheh the servant of Yah Veh, Yah Veh says to Yah Shua the son of Nun, the minister of Mosheh, saying, ² Mosheh my servant died; and now rise, pass over this Yarden - you and all this people to the land I give them - to the sons of Yisra El. ³ Every place the sole of your foot treads, I give you, as I worded to Mosheh ⁴ - from this wilderness and Lebanon even to the great river - the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hethiy, and to the great sea toward the entry of the sun becomes your border. ⁵ No man is able to stand at your face all the days of your life: as I became with Mosheh, I become with you: I neither let you down nor forsake you. ⁶ Strengthen! Encourage! Divide the land for an inheritance to this people, which I oathed to their fathers to give them. ⁷ Only, strengthen and encourage mightily to guard to work according to all the torah Mosheh my servant misvahed you: turn not aside from it - right or left, so that wherever you go, you comprehend. ⁸ Remove not the scroll of this torah from your mouth; but meditate therein by day and by night; guarding to work according to all inscribed therein: and then you prosper and then you comprehend. ⁹ Misvahed I you not? Strengthen! Encourage! Neither awe nor terrify! - for Yah Veh your Elohim is with you wherever you go.

YAH SHUA REVIEWS HISTORY And Yah Shua gathers all the scions of Yisra El to Shechem and calls for the elders of Yisra El and for their heads and for their judges and for their officers; and they set at the face of Elohim. ² And Yah Shua says to all the people, Thus says Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El: Your fathers originally settled beyond the river - Terach the father of Abraham the father of Nachor and they served other elohim: ³ and I took your father Abraham from beyond the river and walked him through all the land of Kenaan; and abounded his seed and gave him Yischaq: ⁴ and I gave Yischaq Yaaqov and Esav: and I gave Esav mount Seir to possess; but Yaaqov and his sons descended into Misrayim. ⁵ and I sent Mosheh and Aharon and I smote Misrayim as I worked among them: and afterward I brought you out. ⁶ And I brought your fathers from Misrayim: and you came to the sea; and the Misrayim pursued your fathers with chariots and cavalry to the Reed sea. ⁷ And when they cried to Yah Veh, he set darkness between you and between the Misrayim and brought the sea on them and covered them; and your eyes saw what I worked in Misrayim: and you settled in the wilderness many days. ⁸ And I brought you to the land of the Emoriy who settled beyond Yarden; and they fought with you: and I gave them into your hand to possess their land; and I desolated them from your face. ⁹ And Balaq the son of Sippor sovereign of Moab rose and fought against Yisra El and sent and called Bilam the son of Beor to abase you; ¹⁰ but I willed to not hearken to Bilam: and in blessing, he blessed you: thus I delivered you from his hand. ¹¹ And you passed over Yarden and came to Yericho: and the masters of Yericho fought against you - the Emoriy and the Perizziy and the Kenaaniy and the Hethiy and the Girgashiy the Hivviy and the Yebusiy; and I gave them into your hand: ¹² and I sent the hornet from your face who drove them from your face - the two sovereigns of the Emoriy - neither with your sword nor with your bow: ¹³ and I gave you a land for which you labored not and cities which you built not and you settled in them; of the vineyards and oliveyards which you planted not, you eat. ¹⁴
YAH SHUA CHALLENGES YISRA EL Now awe Yah Veh and serve him in integrity and in truth: and turn aside the elohim your fathers served beyond the river and in Misrayim; and serve Yah Veh: ¹⁵ and if it vilify your eyes to serve Yah Veh, choose you this day whomever you serve - whether the elohim your fathers served beyond the river; or the elohim of the Emoriy in whose land you settle: but as for me and my house, we serve Yah Veh. ¹⁶ And the people answer and say, Far be it that we forsake Yah Veh to serve other elohim; ¹⁷ for Yah Veh our Elohim ascended us and our fathers from the land of Misrayim from the house of servants and worked those great signs in our eyes; and guarded us in all the way we went and among all the people among whom we passed: ¹⁸ and Yah Veh drove all the people from our face - even the Emoriy who settled in the land: we also serve Yah Veh; for he is our Elohim. ¹⁹ And Yah Shua says to the people, You cannot serve Yah Veh: for he is a holy Elohim; he is a jealous El; he lifts neither your rebellions nor your sins. ²⁰ When you forsake Yah Veh and serve strange elohim he turns and vilifies you and finishes you off after he has well-pleased you. ²¹ And the people say to Yah Shua, No! But we serve Yah Veh. ²² And Yah Shua says to the people, You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen Yah Veh - to serve him. And they say, We are witnesses. ²³ And now, turn aside the strange elohim among you and spread your heart to Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El. ²⁴ And the people say to Yah Shua, Yah Veh our Elohim we serve: and his voice we hear! ²⁵ And Yah Shua cuts a covenant with the people that day and sets them a statute and a judgment in Shechem: ²⁶ and Yah Shua inscribes these words in the scroll of the torah of Elohim and takes a great stone and raises it there under an oak by the holies of Yah Veh. ²⁷ And Yah Shua says to all the people, Behold, this stone becomes a witness to us; for it hears all the sayings Yah Veh words to us: it becomes a witness to you lest you deny your Elohim. ²⁸ So Yah Shua sends the people away - every man to his inheritance. ²⁹
THE ENTOMBMENT OF YAH SHUA And so be it, after these words, Yah Shua the son of Nun the servant of Yah Veh dies - a son of a hundred and ten years: ³⁰ and they entomb him in the border of his inheritance in Timnah Heres in mount Ephrayim north of the mountain of Gaash. ³¹
THE FIDELITY OF YISRA EL And Yisra El serves Yah Veh all the days of Yah Shua and all the days the elders prolonged after Yah Shua - who knew all the works Yah Veh worked for Yisra El. ³² And the bones of Yoseph, which the sons of Yisra El ascend from Misrayim, they entomb in Shechem - in a field of allotment Yaaqov chatteled from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for a hundred ingots: and thus it became the inheritance of the sons of Yoseph. ³³ And El Azar the son of Aharon dies; and they entomb him in a hill of Pinechas his son, given him in mount Ephrayim.

⁹ for they all awe us, saying, Their hands slacken from the work, that it is not worked: and now, my hands strengthen.

²⁰ My honor is new within me and my bow changes in my hand.

¹ To His Eminence; By David the servant of Yah Veh: who worded to Yah Veh the words of this song in the day Yah Weh rescued him from the palm of his enemies, and from the hand of Shaul: and he says, I mercy you, O Yah Veh, my strength!

³⁰ El, his way is integrious; the saying of Yah Veh is refined: he is a buckler to all who seek refuge in him.

³² El girts me with valour and gives my way integrious; ³³ He places my feet as the hinds and stands me on my bamahs; ³⁴ he teaches my hands to war so my arms bend a bow of steel. ³⁵ You give me the buckler of your salvation; your right upholds me; and your humbleness abounds me:

¹ A Psalm by David. Yah Veh Raah; I lack not.

¹⁴ Await Yah Veh! Prevail; and he strengthens your heart; yes, await Yah Veh.

⁸ Yah Veh is their strength and he is the stronghold of salvations of his anointed.

¹⁴ The wicked draw the sword and bend their bow to fell the humble and needy and to slaughter the straight of way. ¹⁵ Their sword enters their own heart - their bows break.

⁷ For you saved us from our tribulators and shamed them who hate us.

¹ To His Eminence; On Sho-shannim-Eduth/Trumpets of Witness: A Psalm by Asaph. Hearken, O Raah of Yisra El, who drives Yoseph as a flock; who settles among the cherubim; shine forth

¹ On Comprehension: By Ethan the Zerachiy. I sing of the mercies of Yah Veh eternally; with my mouth I make known your trustworthiness generation to generation.

²² The stone the builders refused becomes the head of the corner.

² who oathed to Yah Veh and vowed to the Almighty of Yaaqov.

⁵ until I find a place for Yah Veh - tabernacles for the Almighty of Yaaqov.

²⁴ - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth the Almighty of Yisra El. Ho, I sigh over my tribulators and avenge me of my enemies:

¹⁶ So Adonay Yah Veh says thus, Behold, I lay a stone in Siyon for a foundation - a proofed stone; an esteemed corner; a founded foundation: he who trusts, hastens not.

²⁴ And strayers in spirit know understanding, and the rebellers learn doctrine.

¹⁰ awe not; for I am with you: look not around; for I am your Elohim: I strengthen you; yes, I help you; yes, I uphold you with the right of my justness.

¹⁶ and you suck the milk of the goyim and suck the breast of sovereigns: and you know I - Yah Veh - your Saviour and your Redeemer - the Almighty One of Yaaqov.

⁹ For behold, the stone I give at the face of Yah Shua; on one stone are seven eyes: behold, I engrave the engraving - an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth and I depart the perversity from that land in one day.

¹² and they prevail mightily in Yah Veh; and they walk up and down in his name - an oracle of Yah Veh.

⁴² Yah Shua words to them, Read you never ever in the scriptures, The stone the builders disapprove, the same becomes the head of the corner: this becomes of Yah Vah and it is marvellous in our eyes? ^{Psalm 118:22, 23}

¹⁰ And read you not this scripture; The stone the builders disapproved becomes the head of the corner:

¹⁷ And he looks at them, and says, So what is this that is scribed, The stone the builders dissapproved, this becomes the head of the corner?

¹¹ This is the stone belittled by you builders which became the head of the corner:

⁴ You - who are you to judge the housekeeper of another? unto his own adoni he stands firm or falls. Yes, he stands: for Elohim is able to stand him.

²⁰ built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yah Shua Messiah himself being the chief corner;

¹¹ dynamized in all power according to the power of his glory to all endurance and patience with cheer;

¹⁷ And Adonay stood by me and dynamized me; to fully bear the preaching through me; and that all the goyim hear: and I was rescued from the mouth of the lion:

⁴
AS LIVING STONES
coming to him, a living stone; disapproved indeed by humanity but with Elohim, select, honorable; 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. ⁶ So it is also contained in the scripture, Behold, I place in Siyon a chief corner stone, select, honorable: and whoever trusts on him never no way shames. ^{Isaiah 28:16 7} So to you who trust, he is precious: but to them who distrust, the stone the builders disapproved this one became the head of the corner, ⁸ and a stone of stumbling and a rock of scandal to them who stumble at the word - who distrust: to which also they were set.

¹ And so be it, Abram is a son of ninety years and nine years and Yah Veh is seen by Abram and says to him, I am El Shadday; walk at my face and be integrious:

²⁸ and Elohim gives you of the dew of the heavens and the fatness of the earth and an abundance of crop and juice:

¹³ and behold, Yah Veh stations himself above it and says, I - Yah Veh Elohim of Abraham your father and Elohim of Yischaq: I give the land whereon you lie to you and to your seed;

²¹ so that I return to the house of my father in shalom; then Yah Veh becomes my Elohim:

³ and we rise and ascend to Beth El; and I work there a sacrifice altar to El, who answers me in the day of my tribulation and is with me in the way I go.

¹¹ And Elohim says to him, I - El Shadday: bear fruit and abound; a goyim and a congregation of goyim become from you; and sovereigns come from your loins:

²³ And he says, Shalom to you! Awe not! Your Elohim and the Elohim of your father, gave you hidden treasure in your sacks: I have your silver. And he brings Shimon to them.

¹⁷ and you said in your heart, My force and the might of my hand worked me this valour.

² and all these blessings come on you and overtake you; because you hearken to the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim. ³ Blessed, you in the city and blessed, you in the field; ⁴ blessed, the fruit of your belly and the fruit of your soil; and the fruit of your animals - the fetus of your yoke and the riches of your flocks; ⁵ blessed, your basket and your doughboard: ⁶ blessed in your coming and blessed in your going. ⁷ Yah Veh gives your enemies who rise against you - smitten at your face: they come against you one way and flee your face seven ways. ⁸ Yah Veh misvahs blessing on you in your ingatherings and in all you spread your hand to; and blesses you in the land Yah Veh your Elohim gives you. ⁹ Yah Veh raises you - a holy people to himself, as he oathed to you, when you guard the misvoth of Yah Veh your Elohim and walk in his ways: ¹⁰ and all people of the earth see the name of Yah Veh called upon you; and they awe you: ¹¹ and Yah Veh overflows you in goods - in the fruit of your belly and in the fruit of your animals and in the fruit of your soil - the soil Yah Veh oathed to your fathers to give you. ¹² Yah Veh opens his good treasure to you - the heavens to give the rain to your land in its time and to bless all the work of your hand: and you lend to many goyim and you borrow not.

¹
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:

¹¹ For Yah Veh Elohim is a sun and shield; Yah Veh grants charism and honor; he withholds no good from them who walk integriously.

¹² yes, Yah Veh gives good and our land yields her produce;

³³
THE PROVISION OF YAH SHUA
But first seek the sovereigndom of Elohim and his justness; and all these add to you.

²¹ So boast not in humanity: for all are yours; ²² whether Paulos, whether Apollos, whether Kepha, whether the cosmos, whether life, whether death, whether the present, whether the about to be - all are to you;

³ Blessed be the Elohim and Father of our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah, who blessed us in all spiritual blessings in the heavenlies in Messiah:

¹⁹ And my Elohim fulfills/shalams all your need according to his riches in glory in Messiah Yah Shua.

⁸ For bodily exercise benefits little: but reverence is to all, having pre-evangelism of the life that now is, and is to come.

²⁷ And he comes near and kisses him: and he scents the scent of his clothing and blesses him and says, See, the scent of my son is as the scent of a field Yah Veh blesses: ²⁸ and Elohim gives you of the dew of the heavens and the fatness of the earth and an abundance of crop and juice: ²⁹ peoples serve you and nations prostrate to you: be lord over your brothers and the sons of your mother prostrate to you: cursed are they who curse you and blessed are they who bless you.

³⁹ And Yischaq his father answers and says to him, Behold, the fatness of the earth is your settlement and of the dew of the heavens from Elyon; ⁴⁰ and you live by your sword and serve your brother; and so be it, as you ramble on, that you break his yoke from your neck.

³ and El Shadday blesses you to bear fruit and abound you and there become a congregation of people; ⁴ and give you the blessing of Abraham - to you and to your seed with you; to possess the land of your sojournings which Elohim gave to Abraham.

² Word to the sons of Yisra El and say to them, When either man or woman separate to vow a vow - the vow of a Separatist, to marvel to Yah Veh:

¹⁵ and for the tops of the ancient mountains; and for the preciousnesses of the eternal hills; ¹⁶ and for the preciousnesses of the earth and fulness thereof; and for the pleasure of him who tabernacles in the bush: it comes on the head of Yoseph and on the scalp of him who was a Separatist from his brothers.

³⁶ his seed is eternal and his throne as the sun in front of me;

¹⁷ he sent a man at their face - Yoseph, who was sold for a servant ¹⁸ whose feet they humbled with fetters - laid his soul in iron. ¹⁹ Until the time his word arrived the saying of Yah Veh refined him; ²⁰ the sovereign sent and loosed him - the sovereign of the people, and loosed him; ²¹ he set him adoni of his house and sovereign of all his chattel; ²² to bind his governors at his soul; and enwisen his elders.

¹⁸ I enrobe his enemies with shame; and on him, his separatism flourishes.

¹⁰ For the mountains depart and the hills topple; but neither my mercy departs from you, nor the covenant of my shalom topple, says Yah Veh who mercies you.

⁵ Hear the word of Yah Veh, you who tremble at his word; your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for sake of my name, say, Yah Veh is honored: and we see your cheerfulness, and they shame:

²⁵ and they dwell in the land I gave to Yaaqov my servant, wherein your fathers settled: and they settle therein - they and their sons, and the sons of their sons eternally: and my servant David is their hierarch eternally. ²⁶
THE ETERNAL COVENANT OF YAH VEH
And I cut a covenant of shalom with them - so be it, an eternal covenant with them: and I give them and abound them; and give my holies among them eternally.

⁶ I descend to the bases of the mountains; the earth with her bars around me eternally: yet you ascend my life from the pit of ruin, O Yah Veh my Elohim.

⁶ he stands, and measures the earth; he sees, and loosens the goyim. And the eternal mountains scatter; the perpetual hills prostrate: his ways are eternal.

⁹ And with zeal the patriarchs give Yoseph into Misrayim: and Elohim is with him

¹⁸ And so be it, as her soul departs - for she dies she calls his name Ben Oni - and his father calls him Ben Yamin.

²¹ And the sons of Ben Yamin: Belah and Becher and Ashbel, Gera and Naaman, Achi and Rosh, Muppim and Huppim and Ard.

¹² And of Ben Yamin he says, The beloved of Yah Veh tabernacles confidently by him; and covers him all the day long and he tabernacles between his shoulders.

¹⁵
EHUD THE SAVIOUR
And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh and Yah Veh raises them a saviour - Ehud the son of Gera - a Ben Yaminiy - a man shut of his right hand: and by his hand the sons of Yisra El send an offering to Eglon the sovereign of Moab; ¹⁶ and Ehud works a sword of two edges; a span long; and he girds it under his tailoring on his right flank. ¹⁷ And he oblates the offering to Eglon sovereign of Moab - Eglon is a mighty fat man. ¹⁸ And when he finishes oblating the offering he sends away the people who bear the offering. ¹⁹ But he himself turns from the sculptiles by Gilgal and says, I have a covert word to you, O sovereign. He says, Hush! - and all who stand by him go from him. ²⁰ And Ehud comes to him; and he settles in an upper room of cooling which he has for himself alone. And Ehud says, I have a word from Elohim to you! - and he rises from his throne. ²¹ And Ehud sends his left and takes the sword from his right flank and stakes it into his belly: ²² and the handle also goes in after the blade; and the fat shuts through the blade so that he cannot draw the sword from his belly; and it comes out at the anus. ²³ Then Ehud goes through the portico and shuts the doors of the upper room on him and encloses them. ²⁴ And he goes, and his servants come; and they see, behold, the doors of the upper room are enclosed, they say, Surely he covers his feet in his cooling chamber. ²⁵ And they wait until they shame: and behold, he opens not the doors of the upper room; and they take the key and open: and behold, their adoni fallen down on the earth - dead. ²⁶ And as they linger Ehud escapes and passes beyond the sculptiles and escapes to Seirah: ²⁷ and so be it, when he comes, he blasts a shophar in the mountain of Ephrayim and the sons of Yisra El descend the mount with him - with him at their face. ²⁸ And he says to them, Pursue after me: for Yah Veh gives your enemies the Moabiy into your hand. - and they descend after him and capture the passages of Yarden toward Moab and allow not a man to pass over. ²⁹ And at that time they smite about ten thousand men of Moab - all fat - all men of valour; and not a man escapes.

²¹ And the sons of Ben Yamin go from Gibah and ruin to the earth of the Yisra Eliy that day twenty-two thousand men.

²⁵ And Ben Yamin goes to meet them from Gibah the second day; and ruins to the earth of the sons of Yisra El again eighteen thousand men - all who draw the sword.

⁴ And the angels come to Gibah of Shaul and word the words in the ears of the people: and all the people lift their voices and weep. ⁵ And behold, Shaul comes after the oxen from the field; and Shaul says, The people - why weep they? And they scribe him the words of the men of Yabesh: ⁶ and the Spirit of Elohim prospers on Shaul when he hears those words and kindles his wrath mightily; ⁷ and he takes a yoke of oxen and dismembers them and by the hands of angels, sends them throughout all the borders of Yisra El saying, Whoever goes not after Shaul and after Shemu El, so be it worked to his oxen. And the fear of Yah Veh falls on the people and they go as one man: ⁸ and he musters them in Bezeq, of the sons of Yisra El, three hundred thousand; and of the men of Yah Hudah, thirty thousand. ⁹ And they say to the angels who come, Say thus to the men of Yabesh Gilad: Tomorrow, by the heat of the sun, you have salvation. - and the angels come and tell it to the men of Yabesh; and they cheer. ¹⁰ And the men of Yabesh say, Tomorrow we come to you; and you work to us all that seems good in your eyes. ¹¹ And so be it, on the morrow, Shaul sets the people in three heads; and they come midst the camp in the morning watch and smite the Ammoniy until the heat of the day: and so be it, they who survive scatter, so that no two of them survive together.

THE VICTORY OF YAH NATHAN
And so be it, on a day, Yah Nathan the son of Shaul says to the lad who bears his instruments, Come and we pass over to the standing camp of the Peleshethiy beyond; and he tells not his father: ² and Shaul settles in the extremity of Gibah under a pomegranate tree in Migron: and the people with him are about six hundred men; ³ and Achiy Yah the son of Achiy Tub, the brother of Iy Chabod the son of Pinechas the son of Eli priest of Yah Veh in Shiloh bears an ephod: and the people know not that Yah Nathan is gone: ⁴ and between the passages by which Yah Nathan seeks to pass over to the standing camp of the Peleshethiy, there is a tooth of the rock on the one side and a tooth of the rock on the one side: and the name of the one is Boses/Bleached Linen and the name of the one Seneh/Bush: ⁵ the tooth of the one is pillared northward opposite Michmash and the one southward opposite Gibah. ⁶ And Yah Nathan says to the lad who bears his instruments, Come, and we pass over to the standing camp of these uncircumcised: perhaps Yah Veh works for us: for there is no hindrance to Yah Veh to save by many or by few. ⁷ And his instrument bearer says to him, Work all that is in your heart! Spread! Behold, I am with you according to your heart. ⁸ Then Yah Nathan says, Behold, we pass over to these men and expose ourselves to them: ⁹ if they say thus to us, Hush until we touch you! - then we stand in our place and ascend not to them. ¹⁰ And if they say thus, Ascend to us! - we ascend: for Yah Veh gives them into our hand: and this is our sign. ¹¹ And both of them expose themselves to the standing camp of the Peleshethiy: and the Peleshethiy say, Behold, the Hebrews come from the holes where they hide themselves. ¹² And the men of the station answer Yah Nathan and his instrument bearer, and say, Ascend to us and we have you know a word. And Yah Nathan says to his instrument bearer, Ascend after me: for Yah Veh gives them into the hand of Yisra El. ¹³ And Yah Nathan ascends on his hands and on his feet and his instrument bearer after him: and they fall at the face of Yah Nathan; and his instrument bearer after him deathifies: ¹⁴ and the first stroke Yah Nathan and his instrument bearer smite is about twenty men - within as it were a half furrow of an acre of a field. ¹⁵ And they tremble in the camp, in the field, and among all the people: the standing camp and the ruiners also tremble; and the earth quakes - and so be it, a trembling of Elohim:

¹
DAVID AND GOLYATH
And the Peleshethiy gather their camps to war; and gather at Sochoh of Yah Hudah; and encamp between Sochoh and between Azeqah in Ephes Dammim: ² and Shaul and the men of Yisra El gather and encamp by the valley of Elah and line up for war to meet the Peleshethiy. ³ And the Peleshethiy stand on a mountain on this side; and Yisra El stands on a mountain on that side with a valley between. ⁴ And a man of double size, named Golyath, of Gath, comes from the camp of the Peleshethiy; his height is six cubits and a span; ⁵ and he has a helmet of copper on his head and he is enrobed with a habergeon of mail; and the weight of the habergeon, five thousand shekels of copper: ⁶ and he has shinguards of copper on his feet and a dart of copper between his shoulders; ⁷ and the timber of his spear is as the beam of a weaver; and the blade of his spear is six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield goes at his face. ⁸ And he stands and calls out to the ranks of Yisra El and says to them, Why go you to line up for war? am not I a Peleshethiy and you servants to Shaul? Cut a man of yours and descend him to me: ⁹ if he is able to fight me and to smite me, then we become your servants: and if I prevail against him and smite him, then you become our servants and serve us. ¹⁰ And the Peleshethiy say, I reproach the ranks of Yisra El this day; give me a man, to fight together. ¹¹ And Shaul and all Yisra El hear the words of the Peleshethiy, and they are terrified and mighty awed. ¹² And David is a son of a man - an Ephrathiy of Beth Lechem Yah Hudah, his name is Yishay; and he has eight sons: and the man goes among men for an old man in the days of Shaul. ¹³ And the three greatest sons of Yishay go - go after Shaul to the war: and the names of his three sons who go to the war are Eli Ab the firstbirthed and second Abi Nadab and the third Shammah; ¹⁴ and David is the youngest: and the three greatest go after Shaul: ¹⁵ but David goes and returns from Shaul to tend the flock of his father at Beth Lechem. ¹⁶ And the Peleshethiy draws near starting early and evening and sets himself forty days. ¹⁷ And Yishay says to David his son, Take now for your brothers an ephah of this parched and these ten bread and run to the camp of your brothers; ¹⁸ and carry these ten slices of milk to the governor of their thousand and visit your brothers for shalom and take their pledge. ¹⁹ Now Shaul and they and all the men of Yisra El are in the valley of Elah fighting the Peleshethiy: ²⁰ and David starts early in the morning and leaves the flock with a guard; and lifts and goes as Yishay misvahs him: and he comes to the route, as the valiant go forth to the ranks and shout for the war: ²¹ and Yisra El and the Peleshethiy line up - ranks meeting ranks. ²² And David leaves his instrument in the hand of the guard of the instrument; and runs into the ranks and comes and asks his brothers of shalom: ²³ and as he words with them, behold, the man of double size ascends from the ranks of the Peleshethiy - the Peleshethiy of Gath, Golyath by name, and he words these words; and David hears. ²⁴ And all the men of Yisra El see the man, and they flee his face mightily awed: ²⁵ and the men - the Yisra Eliy say, See you this man who ascends? He ascends to reproach Yisra El: and so be it, the man who smites him, the sovereign enriches him with great riches and gives him his daughter and works to liberate the house of his father in Yisra El. ²⁶ And David says to the men who stand by him, saying, What work you to the man who smites this Peleshethiy and turns aside the reproach from Yisra El? Who is this uncircumcised Peleshethiy, to reproach the ranks of the living Elohim? ²⁷ And the people say to him after this word, saying, Thus be it worked to the man who kills him. ²⁸ And Eli Ab his greatest brother hears when he words to the men; and Eli Ab kindles his wrath against David, and he says, Why descend you hither? And with whom leave you those few flock in the wilderness? I know your arrogance and the evil of your heart; for you descend to see the war. ²⁹ And David says, What work I now? Is there no word? ³⁰ and he turns from beside him toward another and says after the same word: and the people return word as the former word: ³¹ and they hear the words David words; and they tell them at the face of Shaul: and he takes him. ³² And David says to Shaul, O that no human heart fall because of him; your servant goes and fights this Peleshethiy. ³³ And Shaul says to David, You are not able to go fight this Peleshethiy: for you are a lad; and he a man of war from his youth. ³⁴ And David says to Shaul, As your servant tends the flock of his father, a lion and a bear came and lifted a lamb from the drove: ³⁵ and I went out after him and smote him and rescued it from his mouth: and he rose against me, and I held him by his beard and smote him and deathified him: ³⁶ your servant smote both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Peleshethiy becomes as one of them, seeing he reproaches the ranks of the living Elohim. ³⁷ And David says, Yah Veh who rescued me from the hand of the lion and from the hand of the bear - he rescues me from the hand of this Peleshethiy. And Shaul says to David, Go! And Yah Veh be with you! ³⁸ And Shaul enrobes David with his uniform and gives a helmet of copper on his head; and he enrobes him with a habergeon of mail: ³⁹ and David girds his sword on his uniform and he wills to go without testing. And David says to Shaul, I cannot go with these; for I have not tested them. And David turns them aside; ⁴⁰ and he takes his staff in his hand and chooses five smooth stones from the wadi and sets them in the instrument of the tender he has in a pouch; and his sling is in his hand: and he draws near the Peleshethiy: ⁴¹ and in walking, the Peleshethiy walks and approaches David; and the man bearing the shield at his face. ⁴² And the Peleshethiy looks around and sees David; and he despises him: for he is a lad and ruddy and of a handsome visage. ⁴³ And the Peleshethiy says to David, Am I a dog, that you come to me with staves? - and the Peleshethiy belittles David by his elohim. ⁴⁴ And the Peleshethiy says to David, Come to me and I give your flesh to the flyers of the heavens and to the animals of the field. ⁴⁵ Then says David to the Peleshethiy, You come to me with a sword and with a spear and with a dart: but I come to you in the name of Yah Veh Sabaoth - Elohim of the ranks of Yisra El whom you reproach. ⁴⁶ This day Yah Veh shuts you into my hand; and I smite you and turn aside your head from you: and this day I give the carcases of the camp of the Peleshethiy to the flyers of the heavens and to the live beings of the earth; so that all the earth knows there is an Elohim in Yisra El: ⁴⁷ and all this congregation know that Yah Veh saves not with sword and spear: for the war is to Yah Veh and he gives you into our hands. ⁴⁸ And so be it, the Peleshethiy rises, and comes and approaches to meet David, and David hastens and runs toward the ranks to meet the Peleshethiy: ⁴⁹ and David spreads his hand in his instrument and he takes a stone from it and slings it and smites the Peleshethiy in his forehead so that the stone sinks into his forehead; and he falls on his face to the earth. ⁵⁰ And David prevails over the Peleshethiy with a sling and with a stone and smites the Peleshethiy and deathifies him; and there is no sword in the hand of David: ⁵¹ and David runs and stands on the Peleshethiy and takes his sword and draws it from its sheath and deathifies him and cuts off his head therewith. And the Peleshethiy see their mighty died and they flee: ⁵² and the men of Yisra El and of Yah Hudah rise and shout and pursue the Peleshethiy until you come to the valley and to the portals of Eqron: and the pierced of the Peleshethiy descend by the way to Shaarayim - to Gath and to Eqron: ⁵³ and the sons of Yisra El return from hotly pursuing the Peleshethiy and plunder their camps: ⁵⁴ and David takes the head of the Peleshethiy and brings it to Yeru Shalem; and he sets his instruments in his tent. ⁵⁵ And Shaul sees David going to meet the Peleshethiy; and he says to Abi Ner the governor of the host, Abi Ner, whose son is this lad? And Abi Ner says, As your soul lives, O sovereign, I know not. ⁵⁶ And the sovereign says, Ask whose son the lad is. ⁵⁷ And David returns from smiting the Peleshethiy, and Abi Ner takes him and brings him at the face of Shaul with the head of the Peleshethiy in his hand. ⁵⁸ And Shaul says to him, Whose son are you, lad? And David says, I am the son of your servant Yishay the Beth Lechemiy.

⁶ So a lion from the forest smites them; a wolf from the plains ravages them; a leopard watches over their cities; every one who comes out thence is torn - because their rebellions abound by the myriads and their apostasies are mighty.

²⁵ - a conspiracy of prophets in her midst: as a roaring lion tearing the prey, they devour souls: they take the wealthy and esteemed; they abound her widows in her midst:

²⁷ Her governors midst her are as wolves tearing the prey, to pour blood; to destroy souls; to greedily gain greedy gain:

⁷ And I am to them as a roaring lion: as a leopard by the way I observe them: ⁸ I meet them as a bear bereaved and rip the treasure of their heart; and there I devour them as a roaring lion: as the wild live being of the field, split them.

³ Her governors within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they craunch not until morning:

¹⁵ PSEUDO PROPHETS But take heed of pseudo prophets who come to you in the enduement of sheep; but inwardly are rapacious wolves:

¹⁶ Behold, I apostolize you as sheep among wolves: so be thoughtful as serpents, and unadulterated as doves.

³ As for Shaul, he ravages the ecclesia - entering every house, and dragging men and women and delivering them to the guardhouse.

¹
YAH SHUA CONFRONTS SHAUL
And Shaul, still breathing out threatenings and murder to the disciples of Adonay, goes to the archpriest,

²⁹ For I know this, that after my departing, burdenous wolves enter to you, not sparing the shepherddom.

⁵ circumcised the eighth day; of the genos of Yisra El; of the scion of Ben Yamin; a Hebrew of the Hebrews: as touching the torah, a Pharisee;

²¹ And the stones, according to the names of the sons of Yisra El, twelve, according to their names as the engravings of a seal; - every man with his name according to the twelve scions.

³¹ and Eli Yah takes twelve stones - according to the number of the scions of the sons of Yaaqov, - to whom the word of Yah Veh became saying, Yisra El becomes your name:

⁷ And sovereign Achash Rosh says to Ester the sovereigness and to Mordekay the Yah Hudiy, Behold, I give Ester the house of Haman; and they hanged him upon the tree because he spread his hand on the Yah Hudiym.

⁹ And at that time, in the third month - the month Sivan, on the twenty-third thereof, they call the scribes of the sovereign and inscribe according to all Mordekay misvahed to the Yah Hudiym - and to the satraps and the governors and governors of the jurisdictions from Hodu to Kush - a hundred and twenty-seven jurisdictions - jurisdiction by jurisdiction according to the inscribing thereof; and to people by people after their language; and to the Yah Hudiym according to their inscribings and according to their tongue.

¹¹ wherein the sovereign gives the Yah Hudiym in city by city to congregate and to stand for their soul, to desolate, to slaughter, and to destroy, all the virtuous of the people and province and of the toddlers and women who besiege them and spoil their plunder.

¹
THE DOMINATION OF THE YAH HUDIYM
And in the twelfth month - the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when they touch to work the word and edict of the sovereign - in the day the enemies of the Yah Hudiym expect to dominate over them, it turns out that the Yah Hudiym dominate over them who hate them ² - the Yah Hudiym congregate in their cities throughout all the jurisdictions of sovereign Achash Rosh, to send his hand on such as seek their evil; and no man stands at their face; for the fear of them falls on all people: ³ and all the governors of the jurisdictions and the satraps and the governors and those working the work of the sovereign, lift the Yah Hudiym: because the fear of Mordekay falls upon them: ⁴ for Mordekay is great in the house of the sovereign and his fame goes throughout all the jurisdictions; for this man Mordekay walks and greatens. ⁵ Thus the Yah Hudiym smite all their enemies with the stroke of the sword and slaughter and destruction; and work according to their pleasure to them who hate them: ⁶ and in Shushan palace the Yah Hudiym slaughter and destroy five hundred men: ⁷ and Parshandatha and Dalphon and Aspatha, ⁸ and Poratha and Adalya and Aridatha, ⁹ and Parmashta and Arisai and Ariday and Vayezatha ¹⁰ - the ten sons of Haman the son of Medatha, the tribulator of the Yah Hudiym, they slaughter; but they spread not their hand on the plunder.

⁸ Behold, it approaches, and so be it - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh this is the day whereof I worded. ⁹ And they who settle in the cities of Yisra El go forth and burn - burn the armament; both the bucklers and the shields the bows and the arrows and the handstaves and the javelins and they burn them with fire seven years: ¹⁰ so that they neither lift timber from the field nor chop any from the forests; for they burn the armaments with fire: and they spoil them who spoil them and plunder them who plunder them - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.

¹
THE GATHERING OF THE GOYIM
Behold, the day of Yah Veh approaches, to allot your spoil among you: ² and I gather all goyim to battle against Yeru Shalem; and capture the city and plunder the houses; and rape the women: and half of the city goes into exile, and not cut off the remnant of the people from the city. ³ And Yah Veh comes and fights against those goyim, as the day he fought in the day of war. ⁴
THE RETURN OF YAH VEH
And in that day, his feet stand on the mount of Olives at the face of Yeru Shalem on the rising: and the mount of Olives splits in half - eastward and seaward - a mighty great valley; and half of the mountain departs northward and half southward: ⁵ and you flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains touches to Asel: yes, you flee, as you fled the face of the quake in the days of Uzzi Yah sovereign of Yah Hudah: and Yah Veh my Elohim approaches - all the holy with you. ⁶ And so be it, in that day, that the light neither esteems nor curdles: ⁷ and so be it, in one day, known only to Yah Veh, neither day nor night: and so be it, that at evening time it becomes light:

⁷ to which our twelve scions, intently liturgizing day and night, hope to arrive: concerning which hope, Sovereign Agrippa, I am accused by the Yah Hudiym.

¹
SALUTATION
Yaaqovos, a servant of Elohim and of Adonay Yah Shua Messiah: To the twelve scions of the diaspora: Cheers.

⁴ And I hear the number sealed: - sealed one hundred and forty-four thousand of all the scions of the sons of Yisra El:

¹⁵ And you go to your fathers in shalom; - entombed in good grayness:

⁸ and Abraham expires and dies in a good grayness - aged and satisfied - gathered to his people. ⁹ And his sons Yischaq and Yishma El entomb him in the cave of Machpelah in the field of Ephron the son of Sochar the Hethiy at the face of Mamre; ¹⁰ in the field Abraham chatteled of the sons of Heth: there they entomb Abraham and Sarah his woman. ¹¹ And so be it, after the death of Abraham, Elohim blesses his son Yischaq; and Yischaq settles by Beer Lachay Roi.
GENEALOGY OF YISHMA EL
¹² Now these are the generations of Yishma El the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Misrayim the maid of Sarah birthed to Abraham: ¹³ and these are the names of the sons of Yishma El, by their names, according to their generations: the firstbirth of Yishma El, Nebayoth; and Qedar and Adbe El and Mibsam ¹⁴ and Mishma and Dumah and Massa ¹⁵ Hadar and Tema Yetur, Naphish and Qedemah: ¹⁶ these are the sons of Yishma El and these are their names, by their courts and by their walls; twelve hierarchs according to their peoples. ¹⁷ And these are the years of the life of Yishma El, a hundred years and thirty years and seven years: and he expires and dies - gathered to his people.

²⁹ and Yischaq expires and dies and is gathered to his people - aged and satisfied of days: and his sons Esav and Yaaqov entomb him.

³⁰ but lay me with my fathers and bear me from Misrayim and entomb me in their tomb. And he says, I work your word.

¹³ for his sons bear him to the land of Kenaan and entomb him in the cave of the field of Machpelah which Abraham chatteled with the field for a possession of a tomb of Ephron the Hethiy, at the face of Mamre.

³⁷ O that your servant, I pray you, return to die in my own city by the tomb of my father and of my mother: but behold your servant Kimham; pass him over with my adoni the sovereign; and work to him what seems good in your eyes.

⁶ So having charismata - thoroughly excelling according to the charism given to us, if prophecy, according to the proportion of trust; ⁷ if also ministry, in ministering; if also doctrinating, in doctrine; ⁸ if also consoling, in consolation; if also imparting, in liberality; if also presiding, in diligence; if also mercying, in hilarity. ^{I Corinthians 12:1-11 9} Love, eunhypocritical; abhor evil; adhere to good; ¹⁰ in befriending one another, cherish befriending; in honor, preferring one another; ¹¹ not slothful in diligence; zealous in spirit; serving Adonay in season; ¹² cheering in hope; abiding in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; ¹³ imparting to the needs of the holy; pursuing the befriending of strangers; ¹⁴ eulogize them who persecute you - eulogize and curse not; ¹⁵ cheer with the cheering and weep with the weeping; ¹⁶ of the same thought one toward another; think not highly, but lead with the humble; think not beyond yourselves; ¹⁷ give no one evil for evil; provide good in the sight of all humanity. ¹⁸ If possible, as much as is of you, complete/shalam with all humanity. ¹⁹ Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but give place to wrath: for it is scribed, Vengeance is mine; I recompense, words Yah Veh. ^{Deuteronomy 32:35 20} So whenever your enemy famishes, force feed him; whenever he thirsts, give him drink: for in so doing you heap coals of fire on his head; ²¹ so that evil triumphs not over you, but that the good triumphs over evil. ^{Proverbs 25:21, 22}

²³ to the whole gathering and ecclesia of the firstborn registered in the heavens, and to Elohim the Judge of all, and to the spirits of the just being completed/shalamed,

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.

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. ¹⁷ And the field of Ephron in Machpelah at the face of Mamre - the field and the cave therein and all the trees in the field, in all the borders all around are raised ¹⁸ to Abraham for a chattel in the eyes of the sons of Heth, in front of all who go in at the portal of his city.

²⁰ and the field and the cave therein are raised to Abraham for a possession of a tomb by the sons of Heth.

³ and Abraham rises from the face of his who died and words to the sons of Heth, saying,

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. ¹⁷ And the field of Ephron in Machpelah at the face of Mamre - the field and the cave therein and all the trees in the field, in all the borders all around are raised ¹⁸ to Abraham for a chattel in the eyes of the sons of Heth, in front of all who go in at the portal of his city. ¹⁹ And thus, Abraham entombs Sarah his woman in the cave of the field of Machpelah at the face of Mamre - Hebron in the land of Kenaan: ²⁰ and the field and the cave therein are raised to Abraham for a possession of a tomb by the sons of Heth.

⁹ And his sons Yischaq and Yishma El entomb him in the cave of Machpelah in the field of Ephron the son of Sochar the Hethiy at the face of Mamre;

¹⁶ and are transplaced to Shechem and placed in the tomb Abraham bought for a price of silver from the sons of Hamor of Shechem.

⁵ And he brings him outside and says, Look, I beseech, toward the heavens and scribe the stars, if you are able to scribe them: - and he says to him, Thus becomes your seed.

⁸ and Abraham expires and dies in a good grayness - aged and satisfied - gathered to his people.

¹⁷ And these are the years of the life of Yishma El, a hundred years and thirty years and seven years: and he expires and dies - gathered to his people.

YAAQOV BLESSES HIS SONS
And Yaaqov calls to his sons, and says, Gather and I tell you what confronts you in the final days.

²⁴ and his bow settles perennial and the arms of his hands solidify by the hands of the Almighty of Yaaqov - from there is he who tends, the stone of Yisra El: ²⁵ by El of your father, who helps you; and by Shadday, who blesses you with blessings of the heavens most high - blessings of the abyss that crouch under - blessings of the breasts and of the womb: ²⁶ the blessings of your father prevail mightily above the blessings of those whom I conceived to the limits of the eternal hills: they be on the head of Yoseph and on his scalp who is a Separatist of his brothers.

²⁹ And he misvahs them, and says to them, I gather unto my people: entomb me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hethiy

²⁷ And Yah Shua says to all the people, Behold, this stone becomes a witness to us; for it hears all the sayings Yah Veh words to us: it becomes a witness to you lest you deny your Elohim. ²⁸ So Yah Shua sends the people away - every man to his inheritance. ²⁹
THE ENTOMBMENT OF YAH SHUA And so be it, after these words, Yah Shua the son of Nun the servant of Yah Veh dies - a son of a hundred and ten years:

²⁶ You come to your tomb in maturity, as a heap ascends in his time.

¹⁰ the mighty dies and decays; yes, humanity expires - and where is he?

²³ For I know that you return me to death and to the house of the congregation of all the living.

⁷ and the dust returns to the earth as it was; and the spirit returns to Elohim who gave.

¹
THE JUST DESTRUCT
The just destruct and no man sets it to heart: and merciful men gather and no one discerns that the just are gathered from the face of the evil. ² He enters into shalom; they rest in their beds - each walking in straightforwardness.

²⁹ Despotes, now release your servant in shalom, according to your rhema:

¹⁵ And Yaaqov descends into Misrayim and dies - he, and our fathers,

¹³ These all died in trust not taking the pre-evangelisms; but seeing them afar: and were convinced and saluted and professed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. ¹⁴ For whoever words such manifest that they seek a fatherland. ¹⁵ And indeed, if they had remembered from whence they came, they had ever had season to return. ¹⁶ But now they reach for a better - that is, the heavenlies: so Elohim shames not to be called their Elohim: for he prepared them a city.

²² By trust Yoseph, dying, remembered concerning the exodus of the sons of Yisra El; and misvahed concerning his bones.
