⁷ Thou didst persuade me, O Jehovah, and I shall be persuaded: thou didst hold me fast, and thou wilt prevail: I was for a derision all the day, all mocking to me.

⁶ Flee from the midst of Babel and save ye each his soul: ye shall not be destroyed in her iniquity: for it is the time of vengeance to Jehovah; he will do to her a recompense.

⁴⁹ And saying, Ah, Lord Jehovah, they say to me, Does he not use parables?

¹⁸ And the generation of Jesus Christ was thus: for Mary his mother having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child by the Holy Ghost.

²⁴ He says to them, Give way; for the girl is not dead but sleeps; and they mocked him.

⁴² And he yet coming near, the demon rent him, and tare him. And Jesus censured the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and gave him back to his father.

²⁸ And likewise as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; ²⁹ And the day which Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven, and destroyed all. ³⁰ According to these shall be the day in which the Son of man is revealed.

¹¹ And their words appeared before them as idle talk, and they believed them not.

³² And having heard of the rising up of the dead, they treated with mockery; and said, We will hear thee again concerning this.

³ For when they say, Peace and security; then sudden ruin is upon them, as anguish in her with child; and they may not escape.

⁴ And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye partake not of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. ⁵ For her sins were followed even to heaven, and God remembered her injustices. ⁶ Give back to her as also she gave back to you, and double to her double things according to her works: in the cup in which she mixed, mix to her double. ⁷ As much as she glorified herself, and led an insolent life, give her so much torture and grief: for in her heart she says, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and I should see no grief. ⁸ Therefore in one day shall her blows come, death, and grief, and famine; and she shall be burned down in fire: for strong the Lord God judging her.

²⁴ Speak to all the assembly, saying, Go up from round about the dwelling of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. ²⁵ And Moses will rise up and go to Dathan and Abiram; and the old men of Israel will go after him. ²⁶ And he will speak to the assembly, saying, Remove, now, from the tents of these guilty men, and ye shall not touch upon any thing which is to them lest ye shall he destroyed in all their sin. ²⁷ And they will go up from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, from round about; and Dathan and Abiram will come forth, standing at the door of their tents, and their wives and their sons and their little ones.

⁴ Thou shalt not give sleep to thine eyes, and slumber to thine eyelashes. ⁵ Deliver thyself as the roe from the hand, and as the bird from the hand of the fowler.

²⁴ Strive earnestly to enter through the narrow gate: for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able. ²⁵ From the time when the master of the house should rise up, and shut the door, and ye begin to stand without, and knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us: and having answered, he will say to you, I know not whence ye are:

² (For he says, In an acceptable time I listened to thee, and in the day of salvation have I run to succor thee: behold, now the acceptable time; behold; now the day of salvation.)

⁷ Wherefore (as the Holy Spirit says, If to day ye hear his voice, ⁸ Harden not your hearts, as in the exasperation, in the day of trial in the desert:

⁶ And Jehovah will pass by before him, and Jehovah will call, Jehovah God merciful and compassionate, deferring anger, and much in kindness and truth,

¹⁸ Jehovah, slow to anger and of great kindness, lifting up iniquity and transgression and cleansing, will not cleanse; striking the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, upon the third, and upon the fourth.

³¹ For Jehovah thy God a merciful God; he will not desert thee, and he will not destroy thee, and he will not forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware to them.

²² And to the two men spying the land Joshua said, Go in to the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring forth from thence the woman and all which is to her, as ye sware to her.

³⁴ Confess ye to Jehovah, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.

¹² Who the man desiring life, loving days, to see good?

⁵ For thou, O Jehovah, art good and forgiving, and great of mercy to all calling to thee.

¹⁵ And thou, O Jehovah, art a God compassionate and merciful, and slow to anger and great of mercy and truth.

⁸ Jehovah being compassionate and merciful, slow to anger and great of mercy. ⁹ He will not contend forever; he will not keep forever. ¹⁰ He did not to us according to our sins, and he did not recompense upon us according to our iniquities.

¹³ As a father compassionating over his sons, Jehovah compassionated those fearing him.

¹ Praise Jah. Confess to Jehovah, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.

⁸ And he will save them for sake of his name, to make known his powers.

¹ Confess ye to Jehovah, for he is good, his mercy is forever.

⁴ He made remembrance to his wonders. Jehovah merciful and compassionate.

¹ Confess ye to Jehovah, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.

⁶⁰ I hastened and delayed not to watch thy commands.

¹ Confess ye to Jehovah, for he is good: for his mercy is forever.

⁹ In all their straits not an adversary, and: a messenger of his face saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he will take them up and bear them all the days forever.

²² The mercies of Jehovah are that we were not consumed, for his compassions were not finished.

¹⁸ Who is God as thee, lifting up iniquity and passing by transgression to the remnant of his inheritance? he held not his anger forever for he delighted in mercy. ¹⁹ He will turn back, he will compassionate us: he will subdue our iniquities, and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

³⁵ But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing back; and your reward shall be much, and ye shall be sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the graceless and evil. ³⁶ Be ye therefore compassionate, as also your Father is compassionate.

¹³ And the publican, standing afar off, would not either lift up the eyes to heaven, but struck upon his breast, saying, God propitiate for me the sinful.

⁴⁴ None can come to me, except the Father having sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

¹⁵ I will commiserate whomsoever I commiserate, and I will have compassion upon whomsoever I have compassion. ¹⁶ Surely then, not of him Willing, nor of him running, but of God commiserating.

¹⁸ Surely then, whom he will he commiserates, and whom he will he hardens.

³ Praised the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion, and God of all comfort:

⁴ But God, being rich in mercy, by his much love which he loved us, ⁵ And we being dead in faults, he made alive together with Christ, (by grace are ye saved;)

⁵ Not of works in justice which we did; but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and the renovation of the Holy Spirit;

¹⁰ And Lot will lift his eyes and will see all the environs of Jordan, that all was watered, before that Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, as the garden of Jehovah as the land of Egypt in thy coming to Zoar.

¹⁴ And Lot will go out, and will speak to his sons-in-law, having taken his daughters, and he will say, Rise ye up, go forth out of this place; for Jehovah destroys the city: and he will be as laughing in the eyes of his sons-in-law. ¹⁵ And when the dawn arose, the messengers will hasten upon Lot, saying, Rise up, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, being found, lest thou shalt be destroyed in the iniquity of the city.

²⁶ And his wife will look hack from behind him, and will become a pillar of salt

¹¹ And Saul will send messengers to the house of David to watch him, and to kill him in the morning: and Michel his wife will announce to David, saying, If thou save not thy soul this night, to-morrow thou diest

³ And he will see and arise, and go for his soul, and he will come to the Well of the Oath which was to Judah, and he will leave his boy there.

¹ Song of ascensions. I will lift up mine eyes to the mountains from whence shall come my help.

⁶ Flee, save your souls, and ye shall be as ruins in the desert

⁷ And seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his immersion, he said to them, O generation of vipers, who has indicated to you to flee from the wrath about to come?

¹⁶ Then let them in Judea flee to the mountain; ¹⁷ He upon the house-tops, let him not come down to take away anything out of his house: ¹⁸ And he in the field, let him not turn back to take up his garments:

⁶² And Jesus said to him, No one putting his hand upon the plough, and looking back, is adapted to the kingdom of God.

³¹ In that day, whoever shall be upon the house, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he in the fields, likewise let him not turn back behind. ³² Remember Lot's wife.

¹³ Brethren, I reckon not myself to have been overtaken: but one, truly forgetting things behind, and stretching still farther to things before, ¹⁴ I pursue toward the scope for the prize of combat of the calling above of God in Christ Jesus.

³ How shall we escape, having neglected such great salvation; which at the beginning taken to be spoken by the Lord, by them having heard was made firm to us;

²⁶ And he will say, Send me away, for the morning ascended: and he will say, I will not send thee away, unless thou didst bless me.

¹¹ And Naaman will be angry, and go, and say, Behold, I said coming forth, he will come forth to me, and stand and call in the name of Jehovah his God and wave his hand up and down to the place, and he will gather him being leprous. ¹² Is not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, good above all the waters of Israel? and shall I not wash in them And be cleansed? And he will turn and go in wrath.

¹¹ Thus said Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and his potter, Ask me of things coming concerning the sons, and concerning the work of my hands will ye command me?

⁶ And he comes to Simon Peter: and he says to him, Lord, washest thou my feet? ⁷ Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know after these. ⁸ Peter says to him, Thou shouldest never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Except I wash thee, thou hast no part with me.

¹³ And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many of this man, how many evils he did to thy holy ones in Jerusalem:

¹⁴ And Peter said, By no means, Lord; for never ate I anything common or unclean.

¹³ Say, now, thou my sister, that it shall be well to me because of thee, and my soul shall live by means of thee.

¹⁷ And my anger was kindled against him in that day, and I forsook them, and I hid my face from them, and he was for consuming, and many evils finding him, and afflictions, and he said in that day, Is it not because God is not in the midst of me these evils find us?

¹ And David will say in his heart, Now shall I be added one day into the hand of Saul: nothing good to me but escaping, I will escape into the land of the rovers; and Saul despairing to seek me farther in all the bound of Israel: and I was saved out of his hand.

⁹ And they said, Because they forsook Jehovah their God who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and they will lay hold upon other gods and worship to them, and serve them: for this, Jehovah brought, upon them all this evil.

¹ To the overseer; to the servant of Jehovah, of David who spake to Jehovah the words of this song in the day Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he will say, I will love thee, O Jehovah, my strength. ² Jehovah is my rock and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, I will put my trust in him; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my height. ³ Praising, I will call upon Jehovah, and I shall be saved from mine enemies. ⁴ The pains of death surrounded me, and the torrents of Belial made me afraid. ⁵ The pains of hades surrounded me: the snares of death anticipated me. ⁶ In my straits I will call upon Jehovah, and to my God will I cry: he will hear my voice from his temple, and my cry will come before him into his ears. ⁷ And it will be moved and the earth will tremble, and the foundations of the mountains will be moved and they will shake, for it was kindled to him. ⁸ A smoke went up in his anger, and fire from his mouth will consume, and coals were kindled from it. ⁹ And he will incline the heavens and come down: and gloom under his feet ¹⁰ And he will ride upon a cherub, and will fly: and he will fly upon the wings of the wind. ¹¹ He will set darkness his covering; his tent round about him darknesses of waters, thick clouds. ¹² From the brightness before him the clouds passed over, hail and coals of fire. ¹³ And Jehovah will thunder in the heavens, and the Most High will give his voice; hail and coals of fire. ¹⁴ And he will send his arrows and scatter them; and he increased lightnings, and he will discomfit them. ¹⁵ And the channels of waters will be seen, and the foundations of the habitable globe will be uncovered from thy rebuke, O Jehovah, from the breathing of the spirit of thine anger. ¹⁶ He will send forth from on high, he will take me, he will draw me out of many waters. ¹⁷ He will deliver me from my strong enemy, and from them hating me: for they were strong above me. ¹⁸ They will anticipate me in the day of my calamity, and Jehovah will be a support to me. ¹⁹ And he will bring me forth to a wide place: he will deliver me, for he delighted in me. ²⁰ Jehovah will recompense me according to my justice, according to the cleanness of my hands he will turn back to me. ²¹ For I watched the ways of Jehovah, and I acted not wickedly from my God. ²² For all his judgments are before me, and his laws I shall not put away from me. ²³ And I blameless with him, and I will watch myself from mine iniquity. ²⁴ And Jehovah will turn back to me according to my justice, and according to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes. ²⁵ With the kind thou wilt show thyself kind; and with the blameless man thou wilt be perfect ²⁶ With the purified thou wilt be purified, and with the perverse thou wilt show thyself perverse ²⁷ Thou wilt save the humble people, and thou wilt humble the eyes of the lifted up. ²⁸ For thou wilt enlighten my lamp Jehovah my God will give light to my darkness. ²⁹ For by thee I will break down a troop, and in my God I will leap upon the wall. ³⁰ God, blameless his way: the saying of Jehovah being refined: a shield to all trusting in him. ³¹ For who is God besides Jehovah? or who a rock except our God? ³² God girding me with strength, and he will give my way blameless. ³³ Setting my feet as the hinds, and he will cause me to stand upon my heights. ³⁴ Teaching my hands to war, and a bow of brass was bent by mine arms. ³⁵ Thou wilt give to me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand will uphold me, and thy clemency will enlarge me. ³⁶ Thou wilt make broad my steps under me and my joints did not waver. ³⁷ I will pursue mine enemies, and I will overtake them: and I shall not turn back till consuming them. ³⁸ I will smite them through and through, and they shall not be able to rise: they shall fall under my feet. ³⁹ Thou wilt gird one with strength for war: thou wilt bend under me those rising up against me. ⁴⁰ Mine enemies thou gavest the back of the neck to me, and I shall destroy those hating me. ⁴¹ They will cry and none saving: to Jehovah, and he answered them not ⁴² And I will beat them in pieces as dust upon the face of the wind: I will pour them out as the mire of the streets. ⁴³ Thou wilt deliver me from the contentions of the people; thou wilt set me for head of the nations: a people I knew not shall serve me. ⁴⁴ At the hearing of the ear they shall hear to me: sons of the stranger shall feign to me. ⁴⁵ Sons of the stranger shall fall away, and they shall tremble from their enclosings. ⁴⁶ Jehovah lives; and and praised be my Rock; and the God of my salvation shall be exalted. ⁴⁷ God giving vengeance to me, and he will speak the peoples under me. ⁴⁸ Delivering me from mine enemies: from those rising up thou wilt lift me up: thou wilt deliver me from the man of violence ⁴⁹ For this I will praise thee among the nations, O Jehovah, and I will play on the harp to thy name. ⁵⁰ Magnifying the salvation of his king; and he did mercy to his anointed, and to David and to his seed even to forever.

¹ To the overseer: of David chanting. Waiting, I waited for Jehovah, and he will incline to me, and he will hear my cry. ² And he will bring me up from the pit of destruction, from the clay of mire, and he will set my feet upon a rock, preparing my goings. ³ And he will give a new song in my mouth, praise to our God: many shall see and fear, and they shall trust in Jehovah. ⁴ Happy the man who set Jehovah his trust, and turned not to the arrogant, and those turning aside to falsehood. ⁵ Many the wonders thou didst, O Jehovah my God, and thy purposes to us: none shall set in order to thee: I will announce and speak, they were numerous above number. ⁶ Sacrifice and a gift thou didst not delight in; the ears thou didst pierce to me: burnt-offering and sin thou didst not ask. ⁷ Then I said, Behold, I came: in the volume of the book it was written concerning me. ⁸ To do thine acceptance, O my God, I delighted; and thy law in the midst of my bowels. ⁹ I announced good news, justice in the great convocation: behold, my lips I will not shut up, O Jehovah, thou knewest ¹⁰ I hid not thy justice within my heart; I said thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I hid not thy mercy and thy truth to the great convocation. ¹¹ Thou wilt not, O Jehovah, shut up thy compassions from me: thy mercy and thy truth shall always guard me. ¹² For evils even not being numbered encompassed about me: mine inquities overtook me, and I was not able to see; they were numerous above the hairs of my head, and my heart forsook me. ¹³ Be gracious, O Jehovah, to deliver me: hasten, O Jehovah, to help me. ¹⁴ They shall be ashamed and blush together seeking my soul to take it away; they shall be turned back, and they delighting in my evil shall be ashamed. ¹⁵ They shall be made desolate for the reward of their shame, they saying to me, Aha! aha! ¹⁶ All they seeking thee shall rejoice and be glad in thee: they loving thy salvation shall say, Jehovah shall be magnified. ¹⁷ And I am poor and needy, Jehovah will think upon me: thou my help and my deliverer; thou will not delay, O my God.

⁷ Will Jehovah reject forever? and will he no more add to be satisfied? ⁸ Did his mercy fail forever? his word come to an end to generation and generation? ⁹ Did God forget to compassionate? or in anger did he gather his compassion? Silence. ¹⁰ And saying, This has made me sick: the years of the right hand of the Most High. ¹¹ I will remember the works of Jah: for I will remember the ancient time of thy wonder.

¹ To David. Praise Jehovah, O my soul, and all within me, his holy name. ² Praise Jehovah, O my soul, and thou wilt not forget all his acts. ³ Forgiving to all thine iniquity, healing to all thy diseases. ⁴ Redeeming thy life from corruption, crowning thee with mercy and compassions. ⁵ Satisfying even to thee with good; thy youth shall be renewed as the eagle. ⁶ Jehovah did justices and judgments to all being oppressed. ⁷ He will make known his ways to Moses, his doings to the sons of Israel. ⁸ Jehovah being compassionate and merciful, slow to anger and great of mercy. ⁹ He will not contend forever; he will not keep forever. ¹⁰ He did not to us according to our sins, and he did not recompense upon us according to our iniquities. ¹¹ For as the height of the heavens above the earth, his mercy prevailed upon those fearing him. ¹² As far off as the sunrisings from the west, he removed far from us our transgressions. ¹³ As a father compassionating over his sons, Jehovah compassionated those fearing him. ¹⁴ For he knew our formation; he remembered that we are dust. ¹⁵ Man, his days as grass: as the blossom of the field, thus he will flourish. ¹⁶ For the wind passed over upon it and it is not; and its place shall know it no more. ¹⁷ And the mercy of Jehovah is from forever even to forever upon those fearing him, and his justice to sons' sons. ¹⁸ To those watching his covenant, and to those remembering his charges to do them. ¹⁹ Jehovah prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruled over all. ²⁰ Praise Jehovah, ye his messengers mighty of strength, doing his word, to hear the voice of his word. ²¹ Praise Jehovah, all ye his armies; his servants doing his will. ²² Praise Jehovah all ye his works in all places of his dominions: praise Jehovah, O my soul.

¹ Praise Jah. Confess to Jehovah, for he is good, for his mercy is forever. ² Who shall speak the powers of Jehovah? will he cause all his praises to be heard? ³ Happy they watching judgment, doing justice in all time. ⁴ Remember us, O Jehovah: thy people with acceptance: review us with thy salvation; ⁵ To see the goodness of thy chosen ones, to be glad in the gladness of thy nation, to boast with thine inheritance. ⁶ We sinned with our fathers, we acted perversely, we did evil. ⁷ Our fathers considered not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; they embittered at the sea, the sea of sedge; ⁸ And he will save them for sake of his name, to make known his powers. ⁹ And he will rebuke in the sea of sedge, and it will be dried up: and he will lead them in the depths as the desert ¹⁰ And he will save them from the hand of him hating, and he will redeem them from the hand of the enemy. ¹¹ And the waters will cover their enemies: one of them was not left ¹² And they will believe in his words, they will sing his praise. ¹³ They hastened; they forget his works; they waited not for his counsel. ¹⁴ And they will desire a desire in the desert, and they will tempt God in the waste. ¹⁵ And he will give to them their asking; and he will send leanness into their soul. ¹⁶ And they will be jealous. against Moses in the camp, against Aaron the holy of Jehovah. ¹⁷ The earth will open and will swallow down Dathan, and will cover the assembly of Abiram. ¹⁸ And a fire will be kindled in their assembly; the flame will burn up the unjust ¹⁹ They will make a calf in Horeb, and they will worship to the molten image. ²⁰ And they will change their glory into the likeness of an ox eating grass. ²¹ They forgat God saving them, doing great things in Egypt ²² Wonders in the land of Ham, terrible things in the sea of sedge. ²³ And he will say to destroy them unless Moses his chosen stood in the breaking before him to turn away his wrath from destroying. ²⁴ And they will despise in the land of desire; they trusted not to his word: ²⁵ And they will murmur in their tents; they heard not to the voice of Jehovah. ²⁶ And he will lift up his hand against them: he will cause them to fall in the desert: ²⁷ And to cause their seed to fall among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands. ²⁸ And they will be bound to Baalpeor, and they will eat the sacrifices of the dead. ²⁹ And they will irritate in their doings, and the blow will break upon them. ³⁰ And Phinehas will stand and intercede, and the blow will be restrained. ³¹ And it will be reckoned to him for justice to generation and generation, even to forever. ³² And they will anger him at the water of strife, and it will be evil to Moses on account of them: ³³ For they embittered his spirit, and he talked idly with his lips. ³⁴ They did not destroy the peoples which Jehovah said to them. ³⁵ And they will mingle with the nations, and they will learn their works. ³⁶ And they will serve their images, and they will be for a snare to them. ³⁷ And they will sacrifice their sons and their daughters to lords. ³⁸ And they will pour out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters which they sacrificed to the images of Canaan: and the land will be polluted with bloods. ³⁹ And they will be defiled with their works: and they will commit fornication in their doings. ⁴⁰ And the anger of Jehovah will kindle against his people, and he will abhor his inheritance. ⁴¹ And he will give them into the hand of the nations; and they hating them shall rule over them. ⁴² And their enemies will press them, and they shall be humbled under their hand. ⁴³ Many times he will deliver them, and they will embitter with their counsel, and they will be brought low in their iniquity. ⁴⁴ And he will look upon straits to them in his hearing their wailing. ⁴⁵ And he will remember his covenant to them, and he will console according to the multitude of his mercy. ⁴⁶ And he will give them for compassions before all those carrying them away captive. ⁴⁷ Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations to confess to thy holy name, to boast in thy praise ⁴⁸ Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel from forever and even to forever: and all the people saying, Amen. Praise ye Jah.

¹ I Loved, for Jehovah will hear the voice of my supplication. ² For he inclined his ear to me, and in my days I will call. ³ The pains of death surrounded me, and the distresses of hades found me: shall find straits and affliction. ⁴ And upon the name of Jehovah will I call; now, O Jehovah, deliver my soul. ⁵ Jehovah is merciful and just, and our God compassionates ⁶ Jehovah watching the simple: I was brought low, and he will save for me. ⁷ Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest; for Jehovah benefited to thee. ⁸ For thou deliveredst my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from a fall. ⁹ I will go about before Jehovah in the lands of the living. ¹⁰ I believed, for I will speak: I was greatly humbled. ¹¹ I said in my alarm, Every man a lie. ¹² What shall I turn back to Jehovah for all his benefits to me? ¹³ I will lift up the cup of salvation, and upon the name of Jehovah will I call. ¹⁴ I will repay my vows to Jehovah before now to all his people. ¹⁵ Precious in the eyes of Jehovah the death to his godly ones. ¹⁶ Now, O Jehovah, for I am thy servant; I thy servant, the son of thy maid-servant: thou didst loose to my bonds. ¹⁷ To thee will I sacrifice a sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of Jehovah. ¹⁸ My vows to Jehovah I will repay before now to all his people, ¹⁹ In the enclosures to the house of Jehovah, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jah.

²⁵ And his disciples, having come near, awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we are lost. ²⁶ And he says to them, Why are ye timorous, ye of little faith? Then having risen, he censured the winds and sea; and there was a great calm.

¹⁹ And he having answered, says to him, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me.

³¹ What then shall we say to these? if God with us, who against us?

¹⁴ And the grace of our Lord superabounded with faith and love in Christ Jesus. ¹⁵ Faithful the word, and worthy of all acceptance, for Christ Jesus came into the world to save the sinful; of whom I am first. ¹⁶ But for this was I commiserated, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a model to them about to believe on him to eternal life.

³⁰ And Lot will go up from Zoar and will dwell in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he will fear to dwell in Zoar; and he will dwell in a cave, he and his two daughters.

¹⁷⁵ My soul, shall live and praise thee; and thy judgments shall help me.

⁵ Trust to Jehovah with all thy heart; and thou shalt not lean to thine understanding. ⁶ In all thy ways know him, and he will make straight thy paths. ⁷ Thou shalt not be wise in thine eyes: fear Jehovah and depart from evil.

³ Incline your ear, and come to me, and hear, and your soul shall live; and I will cut out with you an eternal covenant, the sure mercies of David.

⁶ If the trumpet shall be struck in the city and the people not be terrified? if evil shall be in the city and Jehovah did not?

⁷ If thou shalt do well thou shalt be lifted up; and if thou shalt not do well, sin lies at the entrance; and to thee his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

² And I will make thee into a great nation, and I will bless thee, and I will make thy name great; and thou shalt be blessed.

²⁴ Perhaps there is fifty just in the midst of the city: wilt thou also destroy and not forgive the place for the sake of the fifty just which are within it?

⁸ And now take to you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and bring up a burnt-offering for yourselves; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for his face I will accept, so as not to do with you for folly, for ye spake not to me the right as my servant Job. ⁹ And Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite, will go, and they will do according as God Jehovah spake: and Jehovah will accept the face of Job.

¹⁵ The eyes of Jehovah upon the just, and his ears to their cries.

¹⁷ He looked upon the prayer of the helpless, and he despised not their prayer.

¹⁹ He will do the desire of them fearing him, and he will hear their cry and he will save them.

¹⁰ Thus said Jehovah to this people, Thus they loved to wander, they restrained not their feet, and Jehovah accepted them not; now will he remember their iniquity and he will review their sin.

²⁰ He shall not break a bruised reed, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he should draw forth judgment to victory.

¹⁷ Wherefore in all things it was necessary to be made like to the brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful chief priest in things towards God, in order to propitiate for the sin of the people.

¹⁵ For we have not a chief priest unable to suffer with our weaknesses; but tried in all things as a resemblance, without sin. ¹⁶ We should therefore go with freedom of speech to the throne of grace, that we receive mercy, and find grace for timely assistance.

² Made war with Bera, king of Sodom, and with Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, and Shemeber, king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela, this is Zoar.

²⁵ And he will see thathewill not prevail over him and he will touch upon the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh will be alienated in his wrestling with him. ²⁶ And he will say, Send me away, for the morning ascended: and he will say, I will not send thee away, unless thou didst bless me. ²⁷ And he will say to him, What thy name? and he will say, Jacob. ²⁸ And he will say, Thy name shall no more be said Jacob, but Israel, for thou wert a prince with God and with men, and thou shalt prevail.

¹⁰ And thou be at rest to me, and my wrath shall kindle against them, and I will consume them: and I will make thee into a great nation.

¹⁴ Desist from me and I will destroy them, and I will wipe off their name from under the heavens: and I will make thee into a nation strong and many above them.

¹ He dwelling in the covering of the Most High, in the shadow of the Almighty shall he lodge. ² Saying to Jehovah, My refuge and my fortress: my God, I will trust in thee ³ For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, from the word of ruin. ⁴ He will cover thee with his wing feathers, and under his wings thou shalt trust: his truth a shield and buckler. ⁵ Thou Shalt not be afraid from terror the night; from the arrow that will fly the day; ⁶ From the word that shall go in darkness: from the cutting off that shall lay waste the noon-day. ⁷ A thousand shall fall from thy side, and ten thousand from thy right hand; and to thee it shall not reach. ⁸ Only with thine eyes thou shalt look and thou shalt see the retribution of the unjust ⁹ For thou, O Jehovah, my trust; thou didst set the Most High thy refuge. ¹⁰ Evil shall not approach to thee, and a blow shall not come near in thy tent

⁵ My heart shall cry out for Moab; passing through even to Zoar, a heifer of three years: for going up to Luhith with weeping shall they go up into it: for the way of Horonaim they shall rouse up a cry of breaking.

⁸ Thus said Jehovah, As the new wine will be found in the cluster, and he will say, Thou shalt not destroy it, for a blessing in it: thus will I do for sake of my servant, to not destroy them all.

³⁴ From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealah, even to Jahaz, they gave their voice from Zoar even to Horonaim, a heifer of the third year: for also the waters of Nimrim shall be for desolations.

⁵ And he could do no power there, except having laid his hands upon a few sick, he cured.

¹³ If we believe not, he remains faithful: he cannot deny himself.

² In hope of eternal life, (which God, not false, promised before eternal times;

²³ Pitch and burning salt, all its land; it shall not be sown, and it shall not sprout, and no green herb shall come up upon it, as the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger and in his wrath:

¹⁵ It shall dwell in his tent, from not to him: brimstone shall be scattered upon his dwelling.

⁶ He will rain upon the, unjust, snares, fire and brimstone, and a wind of violent heat: the portion of their cup.

¹⁹ And Babel the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' grandeur was as God overthrowing Sodom and Gomorrah.

¹⁶ And that man being as the cities which Jehovah overthrew, and lamented not: and hearing the cry in the morning and the loud noise in time of noon.

¹⁸ As the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and her neighbors, said Jehovah, a man shall not dwell there, and the son of man shall not sojourn in her.

⁴⁰ As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and her neighbors, says Jehovah; a man shall not dwell there, and the son of man shall not sojourn in her.

⁶ For the iniquity of the daughter of my people will be great above the sin of Sodom being overthrown as in a moment, and no hands waited for her.

⁴⁹ Behold, this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, security of rest was to her and to her daughters, and she strengthened not the hand of the poor and needy. ⁵⁰ And they will be proud, and they will do abomination before me: and I shall take them away according to what I saw.

⁸ How shall I give thee up, O Ephraim? Shall I deliver thee over, O Israel? How shall I give thee as the earth? Shall I set thee as roes? My heart was turned upon me; my grievings were kindled together.

¹¹ I overthrew among you as God overthrows Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye shall be as a fire-brand snatched from the burning: and ye turned not back even to me, says Jehovah.

⁹ For this. I live, says Jehovah of armies, God of Israel, for Moab shall be as Sodom, and the sons of Ammon as Gomorrah, the possession of the thorn-bush and salt-pits, and a desolation even to forever: the remnant of my people shall plunder them, and the rest of my nation shall inherit them.

²⁸ And likewise as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; ²⁹ And the day which Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from heaven, and destroyed all.

⁶ And the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha having reduced to ashes, condemned with a catastrophe, a pattern set to them about to act irreligiously;

¹⁴ He drawing back the heart shall be filled from his ways: and a good man from above him.

³⁸ And the just one shall live by faith; but if he draw down, my soul is not contented in him.

²² And the men will turn back from thence, and will go forth to Sodom: and Abraham stood yet before the face of Jehovah. ²³ And Abraham will draw near, and will say, Wilt thou also destroy the just with the wicked ²⁴ Perhaps there is fifty just in the midst of the city: wilt thou also destroy and not forgive the place for the sake of the fifty just which are within it? ²⁵ Far be it with respect to thee doing as this word to kill the just with the wicked; and for the just to be as the wicked, far be it with respect to thee: shall not the judge of all the earth do judgment? ²⁶ And Jehovah will say, If I shall find in Sodom fifty just, in the midst of the city, I forgive all the place for their sakes. ²⁷ And Abraham will answer and say, Behold now, I have undertaken to speak to my Lord, and I dust and ashes. ²⁸ If the fifty just shall lack five: wilt thou destroy for sake of five all the city? And he will say, I will not destroy, if I shall find there forty and five. ²⁹ And he added yet to speak to him, and he will say, If forty shall be found there? And he will say, I will not do for sake of forty. ³⁰ And he will say, Now will it not kindle to the Lord, and I will speak: If thirty shall be found there? And he will say, I will not do, if I shall find thirty there. ³¹ And he will say, Behold now, I have begun to speak to the Lord If twenty shall be found there? And he will say, I will not destroy for sake of twenty. ³² And he will say, Now will it not be angry to the Lord, and I will speak only this once: If ten shall be found there? And he will say, I will not destroy for sake of ten. ³³ And Jehovah went forth after that he finished to speak to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.

³ O Jehovah, the morning thou wilt hear my voice; the morning I will set in order to thee, and I will look about.

¹ I will stand upon my watch, and be set me upon the fortress, and I will watch to see what he will speak in me, and what I shall turn back upon my reproof.

¹ For this ought we to hold above measure to the things heard, lest we slip away.

² And he opened the well of the bottomless pit; and a smoke went up out of the well, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun was darkened, and the air, from the smoke of the well.

¹⁰ And the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, mingled pure in the cup of his anger; and he shall be tortured in fire and sulphur before the holy angels, and before the Lamb: ¹¹ And the smoke of their torture goes up forever and ever: and they have no rest day and night, those worshipping the wild beast and his image, and if any receive the stamp of his name.

⁹ And weep for her, and lament over her, shall the kings of the earth having been debauched with her, and having led an insolent life, when they see the smoke of her burning,

¹⁸ And cried, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What like the great city!

³ And the second time they said, Alleluia. And her smoke goes up for ever and ever.

⁸ But to the cowardly, and unbelieving, and to the abominable, and murderers, and to fornicators, and charmers, and to idolaters, and to all the lying, their part in the lake burning with fire and sulphur: which is the second death,

¹ AND God will remember Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that with him in the ark: and God will make a wind to pass over the earth and the waters will settle down.

²² And God will remember Rachel, and God will listen to her, and he will open her womb.

⁵ Not for thy justice and for the straightness of thy heart thou goest in to possess this land, but for the injustice of these nations Jehovah thy God dispossesses them from before thee, and order to lift up the word which he sware to thy fathers, to Abraham and to Isaak and to Jacob.

¹⁴ Remember to me, O my God, concerning this, and thou wilt not wipe out my kindness which I did in the house of my God, and in its watches.

²² And saying to the Levites that they shall be purifying, and coming, watching the gates to consecrate the day of the Sabbath. Also this remember for me, O my God, and spare upon me according to the multitude of thy mercy.

⁷ The sins of my youth and my transgressions thou wilt not remember: according to thy mercy remember thou for me for sake of thy goodness, O Jehovah.

⁸ He remembered his covenant forever, the word he commanded to a thousand generations.

⁴² For he remembered his holy word with Abraham his servant

⁴ Remember us, O Jehovah: thy people with acceptance: review us with thy salvation;

²³ He remembered for us our lowness: for his mercy is forever:

²⁰ Jehovah watches all loving him, and all the unjust he will destroy.

³¹ And ye remembered your evil ways and your doings which not being good, and ye loathed with your faces for your iniquities and for your abominations. ³² I did not for your sakes, says the Lord Jehovah, it shall be known to you: be ashamed and be disgraced for your ways, O house of Israel

²² And Abram will say to the king of Sodom, I lifted up my hand to Jehovah God the most high, possessing the heavens and the earth.

¹⁹ Behold now, thy servant found grace in thine eyes, and thou wilt magnify thy kindness, what thou didst by me to make my soul live: and I shall not be able to escape to the mountain so evil over-taking me, and I die.

⁴ Vain glorious as water, thou shalt not be preeminent; for thou didst go up out of thy father's. bed; then didst thou defile, going up to my couch.

³ And the south and the circuit in the valley of Jericho, the city of palm-trees, even to Zoar.

³⁶ Why wilt thou despise greatly to do the second time thy way? also thou shalt be ashamed of Egypt as thou wert ashamed of Assur. ³⁷ Also from this thou wilt go forth and thy hands upon thy head: for Jehovah rejected thy trusts and thou shalt not give success to them.

⁸ A man divided in opinion unsteady in all his ways.

⁸ And Judah will say to Onan, go in to thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. ⁹ And Onan will know that not to him will be the seed; and it was when he went in to his brother's wife, he destroyed upon the earth, not to give seed to his brother.

¹⁴ And she will remove the garments of her widowhood from her, and she will be covered with a veil, and will veil herself and will sit in the entrance of the eyes, which is upon the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was great, and she was not given to him for a wife. ¹⁵ And Judah will see her, and will think her a harlot, because she covered her face. ¹⁶ And he will turn to her by the way, and will say, Now I will come in to thee; for he knew not that she was his daughter-in-law: and she will say, What wilt thou give to me that thou wilt come in to me? ¹⁷ And he will say, I will send a kid of the goats from the flock: and she will say, If thou wilt give a pledge till thy sending. ¹⁸ And he will say, What the pledge which I shall give to thee? And she will say, Thy seal, and thy cord, and thy rod which is in thy hand: and he will give to her, and will go in to her, and she will conceive by him. ¹⁹ And she will arise and go, and will put away her veil from her, and will put on the garments of her widowhood ²⁰ And Judah will send the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to take the pledge from the hand of the woman; and he found her not ²¹ And he will ask the men of the place, saying, Where the harlot, she in the eyes upon the way? and they will say, No harlot was here. ²² And he will turn back to Judah, and will say, I found her not; and also the men of the place said, No harlot was here. ²³ And Judah will say, She shall take to her, lest we shall be for a contempt: Behold, I sent this kid, and thou didst not find her. ²⁴ And it will be after three months, and it will be announced to Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter-in-law committed fornication; and also, behold, she conceived by fornication. And Judah will say, Bring her forth, and she shall be burnt ²⁵ She being brought forth, and she sent to her father-in-law, saying, By the man whose are these, by him I conceived. And she will say, Recognise, now, to whom the seal, the cords, and the rod, these. ²⁶ And Judah will recognise, and will say, She was justified more than I, because that I gave her not to Shelah my son: and he will not add to know her yet again. ²⁷ And it will be in the time of her bringing forth, and behold, twins in her womb. ²⁸ And it will be in her bringing forth, and he will give the hand; and the midwife will take and bind upon his hand, scarlet, saying, This came forth first ²⁹ And it will be after turning back his hand, and behold his brother will come forth; and she will say, How didst thou break forth? the breach upon thee: and his name shall be called ³⁰ And afterward his brother will come forth, whom upon his hand the scarlet, and his name shall be called Zarah.

³¹ Thou shalt not look upon wine when it shall be red, when it shall give its eye in the cup, it will go about in uprightnesses. ³² Its latter state it will bite as serpent, and sting as a viper. ³³ Thine eyes shall see strange women, and thy heart shall speak perverseness.

¹⁵ Wo! to him giving his neighbor drink, pouring out thy leathern bottle, and also to be drunken so as to look upon their nakedness. ¹⁶ Thou wert satisfied with dishonor rather than honor: drink thou also and be uncircumcised: the cup of the right hand of Jehovah shall turn upon thee, and ignominy upon thy glory.

¹⁹ Teacher, Moses wrote to us, That if any one's brother die, and leave his wife, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.

¹ Wine is mocking, strong drink is noisy: and every one going astray by it will not be wise.

²⁹ To whom wo? to whom want? to whom strife? to whom complaint? to whom wounds gratuitously? to whom dark fleshings of the eyes? ³⁰ To those remaining at the wine; to those going to seek mixed wine. ³¹ Thou shalt not look upon wine when it shall be red, when it shall give its eye in the cup, it will go about in uprightnesses. ³² Its latter state it will bite as serpent, and sting as a viper. ³³ Thine eyes shall see strange women, and thy heart shall speak perverseness. ³⁴ And thou wert as he lying down in the heart of the sea, and as he lying down upon the head of the mast ³⁵ They struck me, I was not pained; they beat me, I knew not: when shall I awake?

³ O Jehovah, are not thine eyes upon faithfulness? thou didst smite them, and they were not pained; thou didst consume them, they refused to take instruction: they made their faces firm above the rock; they refused to turn back.

⁴ What is man that thou wilt remember him? and the son of man that thou wilt review him?

¹⁶ For the just one shall fall seven times, and rise: and the unjust shall be weak in evil

²⁶ And I find bitter above death the woman that her heart it is snares and nets, her hands are bonds: the good one before God shall escape from her, and he sinning shall be taken by her.

³⁴ And attend to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be loaded with dizziness, caused by excess, and drunkenness, and cares of life, and that day come upon you unexpectedly.

¹¹ And all those happened types to them; and it was written for our reminding, to whom the ends of the times have arrived. ¹² Therefore let him seeming to stand see that he fall not.

⁷ And the end of all has drawn near: be ye therefore of sound mind, and live abstemiously in prayers.

¹ And the sons of Israel will remove and will encamp in the deserts of Moab, from the other side of Jordan at Jericho. ² And Balak, son of Zippor, will see all that Israel did to the Amorite. ³ And Moab will be afraid from before the people greatly, for they were many; and Moab will feel disgust from the face of the sons of Israel. ⁴ And Moab will say to the old men of Midian, Now this gathering will lick up all round about us, as the ox licking up the green of the field. And Balak, son of Zippor, the king of Moab in that time. ⁵ And he will send messengers to Balaam, son of Beor, to Pethor, which is by the river of the land of the sons of his people, to call to him, saying, Behold, a people came forth out of Egypt: behold, it covered the eye of the earth, and it dwelt from before me. ⁶ And now, come now, curse to me this people, for he is strong above me: perhaps I shall be able to strike upon him, and drive him out of the land, for I know whom thou shalt praise is praised, and whom thou shalt curse, shall be cursed. ⁷ And the old men of Moab and the old men of Midian, will go, and divinations in their hand; and they will come to Balsam, and they will speak to him the words of Balak. ⁸ And he will say to them, Remain here this night, and I will turn back word to you according as Jehovah will speak to me: and the leaders of Moab will dwell with Balaam. ⁹ And God will come to Balaam, and will say, What men these with thee? ¹⁰ And Balaam will say to God, Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab, sent to me, ¹¹ Behold, the people came forth out of Egypt, and it will cover the eye of the earth: now come curse him to me; perhaps I shall be able to fight against him and I drove him out ¹² And God will say to Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for he is praised. ¹³ And Balaam will rise in the morning and will say to the leaders of Balak, Go to your land: for Jehovah refused to give me to go with you. ¹⁴ And the leaders will rise and go to Balak, and say, Balaam refused to come with us, ¹⁵ And Balak will add yet to send leaders, many and honorable, more than these. ¹⁶ And they will go to Balaam, and say to him, Thus said Balak, son of Zippor, Now thou wilt not withhold from coming to me: ¹⁷ For honoring, I will honor thee greatly, and all which thou shalt say to me I will do; and come, now, curse to me this people. ¹⁸ And Balaam will answer, and say to the servants of Balak, If Balak will give to me his house full of silver and gold, I shall not be able to pass over the mouth of Jehovah my God to do little or great ¹⁹ And now, sit ye down, now also in here this night, and I shall know what Jehovah will add to speak with me. ²⁰ And God will come to Balaam at night, and say to him, If the men have come to call to thee, rise up, go with them, and only the word which I shall speak to thee, thou shalt do it ²¹ And Balaam will rise up in the morning, and saddle his ass, and go with the leaders of Moab. ²² And the anger of God will kindle because he went; and the messenger of Jehovah will stand in the way, for an adversary to him: and he rode upon his ass, and his two young men with him. ²³ And the ass will see the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass will turn from the way and go into the field: and Balaam will strike the ass to turn her in the way. ²⁴ And the messenger of Jehovah will stand in the hollow of the vineyards, an enclosure hence, and an enclosure thence. ²⁵ And the ass will see the messenger of Jehovah and she will press to the wall, and she will press Balaam's foot to the wall; and he will add to strike her, ²⁶ And the messenger of Jehovah will add to pass by and stand in a narrow place where is no way to turn to the right, and to the left ²⁷ And the ass will see the messenger of Jehovah and she will lie down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger will kindle, and he will strike the ass With a rod. ²⁸ And Jehovah will open the mouth of the ass, and she will say to Balaam, What did I to thee that thou hast smitten me this three beats? ²⁹ And Balaam will say to the ass, Because thou didst vex me: would that a sword was in my hand, for now I had killed thee. ³⁰ And the ass will say to Balaam, Am not I thine ass which thou didst ride upon me ever since thou wert till this day? and being accustomed, was I accustomed to do to thee thus? And he will say, No. ³¹ And Jehovah will uncover the the eyes of Balsam, and he will see the messenger of Jehovah standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand; and he will bow down and worship upon his face. ³² And the messenger of Jehovah will say to him, For what didst thou strike thine ass this three beats? behold, I came forth for an adversary, for the way is perverse before me. ³³ And the ass will see me, and will turn before me this three beats: unless she turned from before me for now also I had slain thee, and preserved her alive. ³⁴ And Balaam will say to the messenger of Jehovah, I sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest to meet me in the way; and now if evil in thine eyes, I will turn back to me. ³⁵ And the messenger of Jehovah will say to Balaam, Go with the men: and only the word which I shall speak to thee thou shalt speak it: and Balaam will go with the leaders of Balak. ³⁶ And Balak will hear that Balsam came, and he will go forth to meet him to a city of Moab, which is by the boundary of Arnon, which is m the end of the boundary. ³⁷ And Balak will say to Balaam, Sending, did I not send to thee to call to thee? wherefore camest thou not to me? indeed shall I not be able to honor thee? ³⁸ And Balaam will say to Balak, Behold, I come to thee: being able, shall I be able to speak any thing? the word which Jehovah shall put in my mouth I will speak it ³⁹ And Balaam will go with Balak and they will come to Kirjath Huzoth. ⁴⁰ And Balak will sacrifice oxen and sheep, and he will send to Balaam and to the leaders which were with him. ⁴¹ And it will be in the morning, and Balak will take Balaam, and will bring him up to the heights of Baal, and he will see from thence the end of the people.

¹ And Balaam will see that it was good in the eyes of Jehovah to praise Israel, and he went not now as before to meet enchantments, and he will set his face to the desert ² And Balsam will lift up his eyes and see Israel dwelling according to his tribes; and the spirit of God will be upon him. ³ And he will take up his parable and say, Balaam, the son of Beor, and the man of unclosed eye, said; ⁴ He said, hearing the sayings of God, who will see the vision of the Almighty, falling, and the eyes being uncovered: ⁵ How good thy tents, Jacob, and thy dwellings, Israel! ⁶ As valleys extended, as a garden by the river, as tents Jehovah pitched, as cedars by the waters. ⁷ He will shake out the water from his bucket, and his seed in many waters, and his king shall be lifted up above Agag, and his kingdom shall be raised up. ⁸ God brought him forth out of Egypt; as the swiftness of the buffalo to him: he shall cut up the nations his enemies; he shall cut off their strong defences, and he shall smite through his arrows. ⁹ He bowed; he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness: who shall raise him up? Praised he praising thee, and cursed he cursing thee. ¹⁰ And Balak's anger will kindle against Balaam, and he will strike his hands: and Balak will say to Balaam, To curse mine enemies I called thee, and behold, blessing, thou didst bless this three beats. ¹¹ And now flee for thyself to thy place: I said, Honoring, I will honor thee, and behold, Jehovah withheld thee from honor. ¹² And Balaam will say to Balak, Also to thy messengers which thou sentest to me, spake I not, saying, ¹³ If Balak will give to me his house full of silver and gold, I shall not be able to pass by the mouth of Jehovah, to do good or evil from my heart; what Jehovah shall speak I will speak it ¹⁴ And now, behold me going to my people: come, I will advise thee what this people will do to thy people in the last of the days. ¹⁵ And he will take up his parable, and say, Balaam the son of Beor, said, and the man of unclosed eye, said: ¹⁶ He said, hearing the sayings of God, honoring the knowledge of the Most High, he will see the vision of the Almighty, falling, and the eyes being uncovered: ¹⁷ I shall see him and not now: I shall look after him, and not near: a star came forth from Jacob, and a rod rose up from Israel and dashed in pieces the faces of Moab, and undermined all the sons of Seth. ¹⁸ And Edom was an inheritance, and the inheritance of Seir was his enemies; and Israel did in strength. ¹⁹ And he shall descend from Jacob, and he destroyed the escaped from the city. ²⁰ And he will see Amalek, and he will take up his parable, and say, Amalek the beginning of the nations, and his latter state he perished forever. ²¹ And he will see the Kenite, and he will take up his parable, and say, Strong thy dwelling, and put thy nest in the rock. ²² For if Cain shall be for consuming, how long shall Assyria take thee captive? ²³ And he will take up his parable, and say, Wo! who shall live, God doing this? ²⁴ And ships from the hand of the Cyprians, and they afflicted Assyria, and they afflicted Heber, and he also perished forever. ²⁵ And Balaam will rise up and will go, and turn back to his place; and also Balak went to his way.

⁹ And Jehovah will say to me, Thou shalt not press Moab, and thou shalt not contend with them in war; for I shall not give to thee his land a possession, for to the sons of Lot I gave Ar a possession.

¹⁹ And thou camest near over against the sons of Ammon, thou shalt not press them, and thou shalt not contend with them: for I will not give from the land of the sons of Ammon to thee a possession; for to the sons of Lot I gave it a possession.

³ An Ammonite and a Moabite shall not come into the gathering of Jehovah; also the tenth generation to them shall not come in to the gathering of Jehovah, even forever:

¹ These the nations which Jehovah left to try Israel by them, (all which knew not the wars of Canaan; ² Only for the generations of the sons of Israel to know to teach them war, only who before knew not;) ³ Five princes of Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivite dwelling in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-Hermon. ⁴ And they will be to try Israel by them to know whether they will hear the commands of Jehovah which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses. ⁵ And the sons of Israel dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites: ⁶ And they will take their daughters to them for wives, and their daughters they will give to their sons, and they will serve their gods. ⁷ And the sons of Israel will do evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and they will forget Jehovah their God, and they will serve the Baalims and the wooden pillars. ⁸ And the wrath of Jehovah will kindle against Israel, and he will sell them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram-Naharim: and the sons of Israel will serve Cushan-Rishathaim eight years. ⁹ And the sons of Israel will cry to Jehovah, and Jehovah will raise up a saviour to the sons of Israel, and he will save them, Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother younger than he. ¹⁰ And the spirit of Jehovah will be upon him, and he will judge Israel, and he will go forth to war: and Jehovah will give into his hand Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram; and his hand will be strong upon Cushan-Rishathaim. ¹¹ And the land will rest forty years: and Othniel, son of Kenaz, will die. ¹² And the sons of Israel will add to do evil in the eyes of Jehovah: and Jehovah will strengthen Eglon, king of Moab, against Israel, because they did evil in the eyes of Jehovah. ¹³ And he will gather to him the sons of Ammon and Amalek, and he will go and smite Israel, and will inherit the city of palmtrees. ¹⁴ And the sons of Israel will serve Eglon, king of Moab, eighteen years. ¹⁵ And the sons of Israel will cry to Jehovah, and Jehovah will raise up to them a saviour, Ehud, son of Gera, son of a Benjamite, a man shut up of his right hand: and the sons of Israel will send a gift by his hand to Eglon, king of Moab. ¹⁶ And Ehud will make to him a sword, and to it two mouths; a cubit its length: and he will gird it from under his garments upon his right thigh. ¹⁷ And he will bring the gift to Eglon, king of Moab: and Eglon a very fat man. ¹⁸ And it will be as he finished to bring the gift, and he will send away the people lifting up the gift. ¹⁹ And he turned back from the carved images which were at Gilgal, and he will say, A hidden word to me for thee, O king: and he will say, Silence! And all standing by him will go forth from him. ²⁰ And Ehud came to him; and he sat in an upper chamber of cooling, which was to him alone: and Ehud will say, A word of God to me for thee. And he will rise from off the throne. ²¹ And Ehud will stretch forth his left hand, and will take the sword from off his right thigh, and he will drive it into his belly: ²² And the handle will also go in after the flame, and the fat will shut upon the flame, for he drew not the sword out of his belly; and the dirt came out. ²³ And Ehud will come forth to the portico, and he will shut the doors of the upper chamber upon him, and fasten. ²⁴ And he went forth, and his servants came in, and saw, and behold, the doors of the upper chamber were fastened; and they will say, Surely he is covering his feet in the chamber of cooling. ²⁵ And they will delay till being ashamed: and behold, he opened not the doors of the upper chamber; and they will take a key and will open: and behold, their lord fallen upon the earth, dead. ²⁶ And Ehud was saved during their consternation; and he passed by the carved images and will be saved at the the gates. ²⁷ And it will be in his coming out, and he will clang upon the trumpet in mount Ephraim, and the sons of Israel will go down with him from the mountain, and he before them. ²⁸ And he will say to them, Follow after me, for Jehovah gave your enemies, Moab, into your hand. And they will go down after him and will take the passages of Jordan toward Moab, and they gave not a man to pass over. ²⁹ And they will smite Moab in that time, about ten thousand men, every one fat and every man strong: and not a man was saved. ³⁰ And Moab will be subdued in that day under the hand of Israel: and the land will rest eighty years. ³¹ And after him was Shamgar, son of Anath; and he will smite the Philistines, six hundred men with an ox-goad; and he also will deliver Israel

¹⁰ And also Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I bought to me for a wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance; and the name of the dead shall not be cut off from his brethren and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.

¹ And it will be after this, and David will strike the rovers and subdue them: and David will take the bridle of the metropolis out of the hand of the rovers. ² And he will smite Moab, and measure them with a cord, laying them down upon the earth; and he will measure with two cords to put to death, and a full cord to save alive. And Moab will be to David for servants, lifting up gifts. ³ And David will strike Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah, in his going to turn back his hand upon the river. ⁴ And David will take from him a thousand, and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen; and David will destroy all the chariots, and he will leave from them a hundred chariots. ⁵ And Aram of Damascus will come to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, and David will strike of Aram twenty and two thousand men. ⁶ And David will put garrisons in Aram of Damascus: and Aram will be to David for servants, lifting up gifts. And Jehovah saved David in all which he went ⁷ And David will take the shields of gold which were upon the servants of Hadadezer, and he will bring them to Jerusalem. ⁸ And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass. ⁹ And Toi, king of Hamath will hear that David smote all the strength of Hadadezer; ¹⁰ And Toi will send Joram his son to king David to ask him for peace and to bless him, because he fought with Hadadezer and struck him; (for Hadadezer was a man of war with Toi.) And in his hand were vessels of silver and vessels of gold and vessels of brass: ¹¹ Also king David consecrated them to Jehovah with the silver and the gold, which he consecrated from all the nations which he subdued: ¹² From Aram, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the rovers, and from Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah. ¹³ And David will make a name in his turning back from his smiting Aram in the valley of salt, eighteen thousand. ¹⁴ And he will put garrisons in Edom; in all Edom he put garrisons, and all Edom will be servants to David. And Jehovah will save David in all which he went ¹⁵ And David will reign over all Israel; and David will be doing judgment and justice to all his people. ¹⁶ And Joab, son of Zeruiah, over the army; and Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, remembering. ¹⁷ And Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, the priests; and Seraiah, scribe. ¹⁸ And Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites: and the sons of David were priests.

¹ And Jehoram son of Ahab reigned over Israel in Shomeron in the eighteenth year to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he will reign twelve years ² And he will do evil in the eyes of Jehovah, but not as his father and; as his mother; and he will remove the statue of Baal which his father made. ³ But in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, he adhered; he departed not from them ⁴ And misha king of Moab was a shepherd, and he turned back to the king of Israel a hundred; thousand lambs and a hundred thousand rams, with the fleece. ⁵ And it wilt be as Ahab died; and the king of Moab will break with the king of Israel ⁶ And king Jehoram will go forth in that day out of Shomeron, and he will review all Israel. ⁷ And he will go and send to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab broke with me; go with me against Moab to war. And he will say, I will go: as me, as thee; as my people as thy people; as my horses as thy horses ⁸ And he will say, Where the way we shall go up? And he will say, The way of the desert of Edom. ⁹ And the king of Israel will go and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom and they will encompass a way seven days; and there was no water for the camp, and for tire cattle which:were at their feet ¹⁰ And the king of Israel will say, Alas, that Jehovah called for thine three kings to give them into the hand of Moab! ¹¹ And Jehoshaphat will say, Is there not here a prophet to Jehovah, and we will seek Jehovah from him? And one of the servants of the king of Israel will answer and say, Here is Elisha, son of Shaphat, who poured water upon, the hands of Elijah. ¹² And Jehoshaphat will say the word of Jehovah is with him, and the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom will come down to him ¹³ And Elisha will say to the king of Israel, What to me; and to thee go to the prophets of thy father and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel will say to him, Nay for Jehovah called these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab. ¹⁴ And Elisha will say, Jehovah of armies lives whom I stand before him, for unless I accept the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, if I will look to thee and if I will, see thee ¹⁵ And now take to me a player on an instrument And it was when the player played, and the hand of Jehovah will be upon him. ¹⁶ And he will say, Thus said Jehovah, Make this torrent, pits, pits. ¹⁷ for thus said Jehovah, Ye shall not see wind, and ye shall not see rain; and that torrent shall be full of water, and ye drunk, and your possessions, and your cattle. ¹⁸ And: this was light in the eyes of Jehovah, and he gave Moab into your hand. ¹⁹ And strike ye every fortified city and every chosen city, and every good tree ye shall cause it to fall, and all the fountains of water ye shall shut up, and every good part ye shall mar with stones. ²⁰ And it will be in the morning when the gift went up, and behold, water coming from the way of Edom, and the earth will be filled with waters ²¹ And all Moab heard that the kings came up to war against them, and they will be gathered together from all girding on a girdle, and above, and they will stand upon the bound. ²² And they will rise early in the morning, and the sun rose upon the waters and Moab will see from opposite the waters red as blood: ²³ And they will say, This the blood of the sword; the kings were destroyed, and they will strike a man his neighbor: and now to the spoil, Moab. ²⁴ And they will go to the camp of Israel, and Israel will rise and strike. Moab and they will flee from their face: and they will come upon it and smiting Moab. ²⁵ And they will tear down the cities, and on all the good portion of Moab they will cast a man his stone, and they filled it; and they will shut up all the fountains of water, and they will cause every good tree to fall: till he left its stones in the city of potsherds, and the slingers will encompass and strike it. ²⁶ And the king of Moab will see that the battle was strong above him, and he will take him seven hundred men drawing sword to break through to the king of Edom, and they will not be able. ²⁷ And he will take his son, the firstborn, which shall reign in his stead, and bring him up a burnt-offering upon the wall: and there will be great anger against Israel, and they will remove from him and turn back to the land.

⁶ And the sons of Israel will add to do evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and they will serve the Baalims, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the sons of Ammon, and the gods of Philisteim; and they will forsake Jehovah and not serve ⁷ And the wrath of Jehovah will kindle against Israel, and he will sell them into the hand of Philisteim, and into the hand of the sons of Ammon. ⁸ And they will oppress and break down the sons of Israel in that year, eighteenyears, all the sons of Israel that are beyond Jordan in the land of the Amorite which is in Gilead. ⁹ And the sons of Ammon will pan over Jordan to war also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim: and it will press upon Israel greatly. ¹⁰ And the sons of Israel will cry to Jehovah, saying, We sinned against thee because we forsook our God, and we shall serve the Baalims. ¹¹ And Jehovah will say to the sons of Israel, Was it not out of Egypt, and from the Amorite, and from the sons of Ammon and from Philisteim? ¹² And the Zidonians and Amalek, and Maon pressed you; and ye will cry to me, and I will save you from their hand. ¹³ And ye forsook me, and ye will serve other gods: wherefore I will not add to save you. ¹⁴ Go and cry to the gods, which ye chose among them; they shall save for you in time of your straits. ¹⁵ And the sons of Israel will say to Jehovah, We sinned: do thou to us according to all the good in thine eyes; but deliver us now, this day. ¹⁶ And they will remove the strange gods from the midst of them, and they will serve Jehovah: and his soul will be shortened for the labor of Israel. ¹⁷ And the sons of Ammon will be called together, and they will encamp in Gilead. And the sons of Israel will assemble together and encamp in Mizpeh. ¹⁸ And the people, the chiefs of Gilead, will say, a man to his neighbor, Who the man that will begin to war against the sons of Ammon? he shall be for head to all those dwelling in Gilead.

⁶ And they will say to Jephthah, Come and be to us for leader, and we will war against the sons of Ammon. ⁷ And Jephthah will say to the old men of Gilead, Did ye not hate me, and ye will drive me out from my father's house? and why came ye to me now when there is distress to you? ⁸ And the old men of Gilead will say to Jephthah, Therefore now we turned back to thee, and come thou with us and we will war against the sons of Ammon, and be to us for head to all dwelling in Gilead. ⁹ And Jephthah will say to the old men of Gilead, If ye turn me back to war against the sons of Ammon, and Jehovah gave them before me, shall I be to you for head? ¹⁰ And the old men of Gilead will say to Jephthah, Jehovah shall be hearing between us, if we did not thus to thee according to thy word. ¹¹ And Jephthah will go with the old men of Gilead, and the people will set him over them for head and for chief: and Jephthah will speak all his words before Jehovah in Mizpeh. ¹² And Jephthah will send messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What to me and to thee that thou camest to me to war in my land ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon will say to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and even to Jordan: and now turn them back in peace. ¹⁴ And Jephthah will add yet and will send messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁵ And he will say to him, Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab and the land of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁶ When in their coming up out of Egypt, and Israel went in the desert, even to the sea of sedge, and he will come to Kadesh; ¹⁷ And Israel will send messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I will pass through now in thy land: and the king of Edom heard not And also to the king of Moab he sent; and he was not willing. And Israel dwelt in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And he will go into the wilderness, and he will encompass the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and he will come from the rising of the sun to the land of Moab, and they will encamp beyond Arnon; and they went not in to the bound of Moab, for Arnon is the bound of Moah ¹⁹ And Israel will send messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, king of Heshbon; and Israel will say to him, We will pass now through in thy land, even to my place. ²⁰ And Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through in his bound; and Sihon will gather together all his people and will encamp in Jahaz, and he will war with Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah the God of Israel will give Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they will smite them: and Israel will inherit all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that land. ²² And they will inherit all the bound of the Amorites from Arnon and even to Jabbok, and from the desert and even to Jordan. ²³ And now Jehovah the God of Israel drove out the Amorites from the face of his people Israel, and shalt thou inherit it? ²⁴ Shalt thou not inherit what Chemosh thy god will give thee to inherit? and all which Jehovah our God drove out from our face, we will inherit it. ²⁵ And now being good, art thou good above Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab? striving, did he contend with Israel, or warring, did he war against them. ²⁶ In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and her daughters and in Aroer and her daughters, and in all the cities which are upon the hands of Arnon, three hundred years? and why took ye not them away in that time? ²⁷ And I sinned not against thee, and thou didst me evil to war against me: Jehovah the Judge will judge this day between the sons of Israel and between the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ And the king of the sons of Ammon heard not to the words of Jephthah which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the spirit of Jehovah will be upon Jephthah, and he will pass through Gilead and Manasseh, and he will pass through Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah will vow a vow to Jehovah, and he will say, If giving, thou wilt give the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ And it was, that coming forth which shall come forth from the doors of my house to my meeting in my turning back in peace from the sons of Ammon, and it was to Jehovah; and I brought it up a burnt-offering. ³² And Jephthah will pass over to the sons of Ammon to war against them: and Jehovah will give them into his hand. ³³ And he will strike them from Aroer even to thy going to Minnith, twenty cities, and even to the meadow of the vineyards, with a very great smiting. And the sons of Ammon will be subdued from the face of the sons of Israel. ³⁴ And Jephthah will come to Mizpeh to his house, and behold, his daughter will come forth to his meeting with drums and with lutes: and she the only begotten; not to him beside her, son nor daughter. ³⁵ And it will be when he saw her, and he will tear his garments, and will say, Alas, my daughter bowing down, thou didst bow me down, and thou art in my trouble: and I opened my mouth to Jehovah, and I shall not be able to turn back. ³⁶ And she will say to him, My father, opening thy mouth to Jehovah, do to me acording to what came forth from thy mouth, after that Jehovah did for thee vengeance of thine enemies, of the sons of Ammon. ³⁷ And she will say to her father, This word shall be done to me: desist from me two months, and I will go, and go down upon the mountains, and I will lament over my virginity, I and my friends. ³⁸ And he will say, Go. And he will send her away two months: and she will go and her friends, and she will lament over her virginity upon the mountains. ³⁹ And it will be from the end of two months, and she will turn back to her father and he will do to her his vow which he vowed: and she knew not man. And it will be a law in Israel, ⁴⁰ From days of days the daughters of Israel will go to celebrate to the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite, four days in the year.

¹ And Nahash the Ammonite will come up and encamp against Jabesh-Gilead: and all the men of Jabesh will say to Nahash, Cut out to us a covenant, and we will serve thee. ² And Nahash the Ammonite will say to them, Upon this I will cut out to you in boring out for you every right eye, and I put it a reproach upon all Israel. ³ And the old men of Jabesh will say to him, Let go to us seven days, and we will send messengers in every bound of Israel: and if none save us we will come forth to thee. ⁴ And the messengers will come to the hill of Saul and will speak the words in the ears of the people: and all the people will lift up their voice and weep. ⁵ And behold, Saul came after the cattle from the field; and Saul will say, What to the people that they will weep? and they will recount to him the words of the men of Jabesh. ⁶ And the spirit of God will fall suddenly upon Saul in his hearing these words, and his anger will kindle greatly. ⁷ And he will take a pair of oxen and will cut them in pieces, and will send in all the bound of Israel by the hand of the messengers, saying, Whoever will not come forth after Saul and after Samuel, thus shall be done to his oxen. And the fear of Jehovah will fall upon the people, and they will come forth as one man. ⁸ And he will review them in Bezek, and the sons of Israel will be three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand. ⁹ And they will say to the messengers coming, Thus shall ye say to the men of Jabesh-Gilead, To-morrow salvation shall be to you in the heat of the sun. And the messengers will come and announce to the men of Jabesh, and they will rejoice. ¹⁰ And the men of Jabesh will say, To morrow we will come forth to you, and do to us air the good in your eyes. ¹¹ And it will be on the morrow, and Saul will put the people three heads; and they will come into the midst of the camp in the watch of the morning, and they will strike Ammon till the heat of the day: and there will be those being left and they will be scattered, and two among them were not left together. ¹² And the people will say to Samuel, Who said, Shall Saul reign over us? Ye shall give up the men and we will put them to death. ¹³ And Saul will say, A man shall not die in this day, for this day Jehovah made salvation in Israel. ¹⁴ And Samuel will say to the people, Go, and we will go to Gilgal, and we will renew there the kingdom. ¹⁵ And all the people will go to Gil-gal; and will sacrifice there sacrifices of peace before Jehovah: and Saul will rejoice there and all the men of Israel, even greatly.

¹ And it will be after this, and the king of the sons of Ammon will die, and Hanun his son will reign in his stead. ² And David will say, I will do mercy with Hanun son of Nahash, as his father did mercy with me. And David will send to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants will come to the land of the sons of Ammon. ³ And the chiefs of the sons of Ammon will say to Hanun their lord, Is David honoring thy father in thine eyes, that he sent comforters to thee? is it not for the sake of searching out the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it, David sent his servants to thee? ⁴ And Hanun will take David's servants, and shave half their beard, and cut off their garments in the half, even to their buttocks, and he will send them away. ⁵ And they will announce to David, and he will send to meet them, for the men were greatly shamed. And the king will say, Sit down in Jericho till your beards spring up, and turn back ⁶ And the sons of Ammon will see that they became loathsome before David, and the sons of Ammon will send and hire Aram of the house of Rehob, and Aram of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and king Maacah a thousand men, and Ish-Tob two thousand men. ⁷ And David will bear, and he will send Joab and all the army of the strong. ⁸ And the sons of Ammon will go forth and they will arrange the battle at the opening of the gate: and Aram of Zobah and Rehob and Ish-Tob, and Maacah by themselves in the field. ⁹ And Joab will see that the face of the battle was against him from before and from behind, and he will choose from all the chosen in Israel and will arrange for the meeting of Aram: ¹⁰ And the remainder of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother, and he will arrange to meet the sons of Ammon. ¹¹ And he will say, If Aram shall be strong above me, and be thou to me for deliverance: and if the sons of Ammon shall be strong above thee, and I came for deliverance to thee. ¹² Be strong, and we will be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God: and Jehovah shall do the good in his eyes. ¹³ And Joab will draw near, and the people which were with him, to battle against Aram: and they will flee from his face. ¹⁴ And the sons of Ammon saw that Aram fled and they will flee from the face of Abishai, and come into the city. And Joab will turn back from the sons of Ammon and come to Jerusalem. ¹⁵ And Aram will see that he was smitten before Israel, and they will be gathered together. ¹⁶ And Hadadezer will send and will bring forth Aram that was beyond the river: and they will come to Helam and Shobach, chief of the army of Hadadezer, before them. ¹⁷ And it will be announced to David, and he will gather together all Israel, and he will pass over Jordan and will come to Helam. And Aram will arrange to meet David, and they will war with him. ¹⁸ And Aram will flee from the face of Israel; and David will kill from Aram seven hundred chariots and forty thousand horsemen, and Shobach chief of his army he struck, and he will die there. ¹⁹ And all the kings, servants of Hadadezer, will see that they were smitten before Israel, and they will be at peace with Israel, and serve them. And Aram will be afraid yet to save the sons of Ammon.

¹ In that day was read in the book of Moses in the ears of the people; and it was found written in it that there shall not come in an Ammonite and a Moabite to the convocation of God, even to forever; ² For they anticipated not the sons of Israel with bread and with water, and he will hire Balaam against him to curse him: and God will turn the curse to blessing. ³ And it will be in their hearing the law, and they will separate all the mixture from Israel.

²³ Also in those days I saw Jews who caused to dwell women, Ashdodites, Ammonites, Moabites: ²⁴ And their sons half speaking the Ashdod dialect, and they not knowing to speak the Judean dialect, and according to the tongue of people and people. ²⁵ And I shall contend with them, and I shall curse them and I shall strike of them men, and I shall make them bald, and cause them to swear by God, If ye shall give your daughters to their sons, and if ye shall lift up from their daughters to your sons and to yourselves. ²⁶ Did not Solomon king of Israel sin concerning these? and in many nations was there not a king like him, and he was loved by his God, and God will give him king over all Israel: also him did women strangers cause to sin. ²⁷ And to you shall we hear to do all this great evil to transgress against our God to cause strange women to dwell. ²⁸ And from the sons of Joiada, son of Eliashib the great priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite: and I shall cause him to flee from me.

⁴ They said, Come, and we will cut them off from a nation; and the name of Israel shall no more be remembered. ⁵ For they counseled together with the heart: they will cut out a covenant against thee: ⁶ The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagarites. ⁷ Gebel and Ammon and Amalek; the rovers with the inhabitants of Tyre; ⁸ Also Assur was joined with them: they were an arm to the sons of Lot Silence.

¹⁴ And they flew upon the shoulder of the rovers to the sea; together shall they plunder the sons of the east: Edom and Moab the sending forth of their hand, and the sons of Ammon their audience.
