² And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen. ³ And he hammered out the leaves of gold, and he cut off cords to weave in the midst of the blue and in the midst of the purple and in the midst of the crimson and in the midst of the linen—the work of a skilled craftsman. ⁴ They made joined shoulder pieces for it; it was joined on its two edges. ⁵ And the waistband of his ephod, which _⌊was of one piece with it_⌋,* was of like work, gold, blue, and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen, as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ⁶ And they made onyx stones mounted in gold filigree settings, engraved with seal engravings according to the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋.* ⁷ And he set them on the ephod's shoulder pieces as stones of remembrance for the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

⁴ They made joined shoulder pieces for it; it was joined on its two edges.

²⁷ And you will make two rings and put them on the two shoulder pieces of the ephod below at its front near its seam above the waistband of the ephod. ²⁸ And they will tie the breast piece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord to be on the waistband of the ephod, and the breast piece will not come loose from the ephod.

⁵ And you will take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic and the robe of the ephod, and you will fasten to him the ephod and the breast piece with the waistband of the ephod.

²⁰ And they made two gold rings and put them on the ephod's two shoulder pieces below, at its front near its seam above the waistband of the ephod. ²¹ And they tied the breast piece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord so that the breast piece would be on the waistband of the ephod and not come loose from the ephod, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

⁷ Then* he put the tunic on him and tied* the sash around him; then* he clothed him with the robe and put* the ephod on him; then* he tied the ephod's waistband around him and fastened* the ephod* to him with it.

¹³ Therefore, _⌊when you have prepared your minds for action_⌋* by* being self-controlled, put your hope completely in the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

¹³ and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching to the feet and girded around his* chest with a golden belt,

¹² (The gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stones are there.)

²⁰ and the fourth row is a turquoise and an onyx and a jasper. Their settings will be woven with gold.

³⁶ "And you will make a pure gold rosette,* and you will engrave on it with seal engravings: "A holy object for Yahweh."

⁶ And they made onyx stones mounted in gold filigree settings, engraved with seal engravings according to the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋.*

¹³ and the fourth row was a turquoise, an onyx, and a jasper. They were set with gold filigree settings in their mountings.

⁷ So then, send to me skilled men to work with gold, silver, bronze, and iron, and with purple, crimson, and blue fabric, knowledgeable in engraving, with the skilled men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father has established.

¹⁶ It cannot be bought for the gold of Ophir, for precious onyx or* sapphire.

⁶ Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; for love is strong as death; passion is fierce as Sheol; its flashes are flashes of fire; it is a blazing flame.

¹⁶ Look, I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me.

¹³ You were in Eden, the garden of God, and every precious stone was your adornment: carnelian, topaz and moonstone,* turquoise, onyx and jasper, sapphire,* malachite and emerald. And gold was the craftsmanship of your settings and your mountings in you; on the day when you were created they were prepared.

³³ And they were seated before him from the firstborn according to his birthright to the youngest according to his youth. And the men _⌊looked at one another_⌋* amazed.

¹ And these are the names of the sons of Israel who came to Egypt; with Jacob, they each came with his _⌊family_⌋:* ² Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah; ³ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin; ⁴ Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

¹³ "And you will make gold filigree settings. ¹⁴ And you will make two braided chains of pure gold ornamental cord work, and you will put the chains of the ornamental cords on the filigree settings.

²¹ The stones will be according to the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* twelve according to their names, with seal engravings, each according to its name they will be for the twelve tribes.

²⁵ And you will put the two ends of the two ornamental cords on the two filigree settings, and you will put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

¹⁸ And they put the two ends of the two ornamental cords on the two filigree settings, and they put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

²⁴ "As I live," _⌊declares_⌋* Yahweh, "surely if Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, were the seal on my right hand, surely from there I would wrench you off.

⁹ For consider, the stone that _⌊I set before_⌋* Joshua, on one stone are seven eyes.* Look, _⌊I am going to engrave an inscription on it_⌋,'* _⌊declares_⌋* Yahweh of hosts, 'and I will remove the guilt of that land in a single day.

¹³ in whom also you, when you heard* the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also when you believed you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

³⁰ and do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

¹⁹ However, the solid foundation of God stands firm, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are his,"* and "Everyone who names the name of the Lord must abstain from unrighteousness."

² And I saw another angel ascending _⌊from the east_⌋*, holding the seal of the living God, and he cried out with a loud voice to the four angels _⌊who were given permission_⌋* to damage the earth and the sea,

¹² And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant that I am making between me and you, and between every living creature that is with you for future generations. ¹³ My bow I have set in the clouds, and it shall be for a sign of the covenant between me and between the earth. ¹⁴ And when I make clouds appear over the earth the bow shall be seen in the clouds. ¹⁵ Then* I will remember my covenant that is between me and you, and between every living creature, with all flesh. And the waters of a flood will never again _⌊cause the destruction_⌋* of all flesh. ¹⁶ The bow shall be in the clouds, and I will see it, so as to remember the everlasting covenant between God and between every living creature, with all flesh that is upon the earth." ¹⁷ And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I am establishing between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

¹⁴ "And this day will become a memorial for you, and you will celebrate it as a religious feast for Yahweh throughout your generations; you will celebrate it as a lasting statute.

⁹ And it will be as a sign on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes so that the law of Yahweh will be in your mouth, that with a strong hand Yahweh brought you out from Egypt.

⁷ It will have two joining shoulder pieces at its two edges, so that it can be fastened.

²⁹ And Aaron will bear the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋* in the breast piece of judgment on his heart, when he comes to the sanctuary, for a remembrance before Yahweh continually.

⁷ And you shall put pure frankincense on each* row so that* it shall be for the bread as a memorial offering, an offering made by fire for Yahweh.

⁴⁰ it was a memorial for the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* so that _⌊no strange man_⌋* who is not from _⌊the offspring_⌋* of Aaron should approach the presence of Yahweh to burn a smoke offering;* he will not be like Korah and his company, just as Yahweh had spoken to him by the hand of Moses.*

⁵⁴ So Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from the commanders of the thousands and hundreds, and they brought it to the tent of the assembly as a memorial for the _⌊Israelites_⌋* before Yahweh.

⁷ you will say to them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off _⌊from before_⌋* the ark of the covenant of Yahweh. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. These stones will be as a memorial for the _⌊Israelites_⌋* for eternity."

¹⁹ Formerly you spoke in a vision to your faithful ones, and said, "I have bestowed help on a mighty man; I have exalted one chosen from the people.

⁶ For a child has been born for us; a son has been given to us. And the dominion will be on his shoulder, and his name is called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

² Look! God is my salvation; I will trust, and I will not be afraid, for my strength and might is Yah, Yahweh; and he has become salvation for me."

⁶ I have appointed watchmen upon your walls, Jerusalem; all day and all night they shall never be silent. You who profess Yahweh have no rest.

¹³ And he will build the temple of Yahweh, and he will bear majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he shall be a priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two of them." '* ¹⁴ And the crown will be for Helem,* for Tobijah, for Jedaiah, and for Hen* son of Zephaniah, as a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.

⁵⁴ He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy,

⁷² to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant,

⁴ And he stared at him and became terrified and* said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and your charitable deeds have gone up for a memorial offering before God.

²⁵ Therefore also he is able to save completely those who draw near to God through him, because he* always lives in order to intercede on their behalf. ²⁶ For a high priest such as this indeed is fitting for us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and having become exalted above the heavens, ²⁷ who does not _⌊need every day_⌋* like the former high priests to offer up sacrifices for his own sins and then for the sins of the people, because he did this once for all when he* offered up himself. ²⁸ For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the statement of the oath, after the law, appoints a Son, who is made perfect _⌊forever_⌋*.

²² "And you will make on the breast piece braided chains, a work of pure gold ornamental cord. ²³ And you will make on the breast piece two gold rings, and you will put the two rings on the two edges of the breast piece. ²⁴ And you will put the two gold ornamental cords on the two rings on the edges of the breast piece. ²⁵ And you will put the two ends of the two ornamental cords on the two filigree settings, and you will put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

¹⁵ And they made on the breast piece braided chains, a work of pure gold ornamental cord.

¹⁷ And they put the two gold ornamental cords on the two rings on the edges of the breast piece. ¹⁸ And they put the two ends of the two ornamental cords on the two filigree settings, and they put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

¹⁷ A network of latticework and wreaths of chainwork with small chains were for the capitals which were on top of the pillars; seven for the first capital and seven for the second capital.

¹⁷ The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; a bronze capital was on it, with the height of the capital being three cubits. The latticework and pomegranates on the capital all around were bronze, and likewise on the latticework for the second pillar.

¹² the two columns, the bowls, and the two capitals on top of the columns, and the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on top of the columns, ¹³ and the four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for the latticework, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were before the columns.

⁴ And these are the garments that they will make: A breast piece and an ephod and a robe and a tunic of specially woven fabric,* a turban and a sash. And they will make holy garments* for Aaron your brother, and for his sons to serve as priests for me.

⁶ and they will make the ephod of gold, blue and purple, and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen, the work of a skilled craftsman.

³⁰ And you will put the Urim and the Thummim on the breast piece of judgment, and they will be on the heart of Aaron when he comes before Yahweh, and Aaron will bear the judgment of the _⌊Israelites_⌋* on his heart before Yahweh continually.

⁸ And he made the breast piece, the work of a skilled craftsman, like the work of the ephod, of gold, blue, and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen. ⁹ It was squared; they made the breast piece doubled; its length was a span, and its width was a span when doubled. ¹⁰ And they filled it with four rows of stone; a row of carnelian, topaz, and emerald was the first row; ¹¹ and the second row was a malachite, a sapphire, and a moonstone; ¹² and the third row was a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; ¹³ and the fourth row was a turquoise, an onyx, and a jasper. They were set with gold filigree settings in their mountings. ¹⁴ And the stones were according to the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋;* they were twelve according to their names, with seal engravings, each according to its name for the twelve tribes. ¹⁵ And they made on the breast piece braided chains, a work of pure gold ornamental cord. ¹⁶ And they made two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and they put the two rings on the two edges of the breast piece. ¹⁷ And they put the two gold ornamental cords on the two rings on the edges of the breast piece. ¹⁸ And they put the two ends of the two ornamental cords on the two filigree settings, and they put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it. ¹⁹ And they made two gold rings, and they placed them on the two edges of the breast piece, on its lip that is on _⌊the other side_⌋* of the ephod, _⌊to the inside_⌋.*

⁸ Then* he placed the breastpiece on him and put* the Urim and the Thummim into the breastpiece;

⁹ "And you will take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋,*

¹¹ As the work of a skilled stone craftsman, with seal engravings you will engrave on the two stones the names of the _⌊Israelites_⌋;* you will make them mounted in gold filigree settings.

¹⁸ Black corals and crystal will not be mentioned, and wisdom's price is more than red corals. ¹⁹ The topaz of Cush cannot be compared with it; it cannot be bought for pure gold.

¹⁵ She is more precious than rubies, and all your desires shall not compare with her.

¹¹ For wisdom is better than jewels, and all desires shall not compare with her.

¹⁵ There is gold and many costly stones, but precious jewels are lips of knowledge.

¹⁰ A woman* of excellence,* who will find? For her worth is far more than precious jewels.

¹¹ "O afflicted one, driven away, who is not consoled. Look! I am about to set your stones in hard mortar, and I will lay your foundation with sapphires. ¹² And I will _⌊make_⌋* your battlements of ruby, and your gates of stones of beryl, and all your wall of precious stones.

⁷ Her princes were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk; their bodies were more ruddy than rubies, sapphire their appearance.

¹⁷ "They will be mine," says Yahweh of hosts, "on the day that I am acting, my treasured possession. I will have compassion on them as a man has compassion on his son who serves him.

¹⁹ The foundations of the wall of the city are adorned with every kind of precious stone: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, ²⁰ the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. ²¹ And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, each one of the gates was from a single pearl. And the street of the city is pure gold, like transparent glass.

¹⁰ And they saw the God of Israel, and what was under his feet was like sapphire tile work and like the very heavens for clearness.

¹¹ and the second row was a malachite, a sapphire, and a moonstone;

⁶ Its stones are the place of sapphire, and the earthen dirt _⌊has_⌋* gold.

¹⁴ His arms are _⌊rods_⌋** of gold _⌊engraved with_⌋* jewels; his belly* is polished ivory covered with sapphires.*

¹ "The sin of Judah is written with an iron stylus, with a point of diamond it is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of their altars.

²⁶ And from above the expanse that was above their heads there was the likeness of a throne, _⌊looking like a sapphire_⌋,* and above the likeness of the throne was a likeness similar to* the appearance of a human on it, but _⌊above it_⌋.*

¹ And I looked, and look! On the expanse that was above the head of the cherubim something like a stone of sapphire,* and like the appearance of the shape of a throne it appeared above them.

¹⁶ Edom* was trading with you because of the abundance of your products, trading with malachite, purple wool yarn and colorful weaving, and fine white fabric and black corals and rubies; all these they exchange for your merchandise.

³ And the one seated was similar in appearance to jasper and carnelian stone, and a rainbow was around the throne similar in appearance to emerald.

¹² and the third row was a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

¹² And I will _⌊make_⌋* your battlements of ruby, and your gates of stones of beryl, and all your wall of precious stones.

¹⁶ The appearance of the wheels and their construction was like the appearance of beryl,* and _⌊they all looked alike_⌋,* and their appearance and their construction was _⌊like a wheel within a wheel_⌋.*

⁹ And I saw, and look, four wheels beside the cherubim, _⌊one wheel beside each cherub_⌋,* and the appearance of the wheels was like the outward appearance of _⌊turquoise stone_⌋.*

⁶ Now his body was like turquoise,* and his face was like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were like torches of fire, and his arms and his legs were like the gleam of polished bronze, and the sound of his words was like the sound of a multitude.

¹¹ that has the glory of God. Its radiance is like a precious stone, something like a jasper stone, shining like crystal.

¹⁸ And the material of its wall is jasper, and the city is pure gold, similar in appearance to pure glass. ¹⁹ The foundations of the wall of the city are adorned with every kind of precious stone: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, ²⁰ the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.

³¹ Elijah took twelve stones according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of God came, saying, "Israel shall be your name."

³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

¹ James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the dispersion. Greetings!

⁴ And I heard the number of the ones who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel: ⁵ from the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand sealed,
from the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand, ⁶ from the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand, ⁷ from the tribe of Simeon,* twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand, ⁸ from the tribe of Zebulun, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand were sealed.

¹² It has* a great and high wall that has twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on the gates which are* of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel—

¹¹ And you will overlay it with pure gold, inside and outside you will overlay it, and you will make on it a gold molding all around. ¹² And you will cast for it four gold rings, and you will put them on its four feet, with two rings on its one side and two rings on its second side. ¹³ And you will make poles of acacia wood, and you will overlay them with gold. ¹⁴ And you will put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark with them. ¹⁵ In the rings of the ark will be the poles; they will not be removed from it.*

¹⁴ And you will make two braided chains of pure gold ornamental cord work, and you will put the chains of the ornamental cords on the filigree settings.

³¹ "And you will make the robe of the ephod totally of blue yarn.

³⁷ And you will place it on a blue cord, and it will be on the turban, at the front of the turban it will be.

³⁰ And they made the rosette* of the holy diadem of pure gold, and they wrote on it with the writing of seal engravings: "A holy object for Yahweh." ³¹ And they put a blue cord on it to put it above on the turban, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

³⁸ "Speak to the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* and tell them to make for themselves tassels* on the hems of their garments throughout their generations* and to put a blue cord on the tassel of the hem.

¹² And you will set the two stones on the ephod's shoulder pieces as stones of remembrance for the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* and Aaron will bear their names before Yahweh on his two shoulder pieces for remembrance.

¹⁵ And you will make a breast piece of judgment, a work of a skilled craftsman; you will make it like the work of the ephod; you will make it of gold, blue and purple and crimson yarns, and finely twisted linen.

¹⁵ Can a woman forget her suckling, refrain from having compassion on the child of her womb? Indeed, these may forget, but* I, I will not forget you! ¹⁶ Look, I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me.

²¹ And their noble will be from them, and their ruler will come out from their midst. And I will bring him near and he will approach me. For who is he that would pledge his heart to approach me?' _⌊declares_⌋* Yahweh.

¹ Brothers, the desire of my heart and my prayer to God on behalf of them is for their salvation.

²¹ He will stand before Eleazar the priest, who will ask for him by the decision* of the Urim before Yahweh. On _⌊his command_⌋* they will go out, and at _⌊his command_⌋* they will come in, both he and all of the _⌊Israelites_⌋* with him, the entire community."

⁸ And of Levi he said, "Your Thummim and your Urim are for _⌊your faithful one_⌋,* _⌊whom you tested at Massah_⌋;* you contended with him at the waters of Meribah.

¹ After the death of Joshua, the _⌊Israelites_⌋* inquired of Yahweh, saying, "Who will go up first for us against the Canaanites* to fight against them?"

¹⁸ Then the _⌊Israelites_⌋* got up and went up to Bethel, and they inquired of God, saying, "Who will go up first for the battle against the descendants* of Benjamin?" And Yahweh said, "Judah will go first."

²³ The _⌊Israelites_⌋* went up and wept before Yahweh until evening and inquired of Yahweh, saying, "Should we again draw near from the battle against the descendants* of Benjamin, our relatives?"* And Yahweh said, "Go up against them."*

²⁷ And the _⌊Israelites_⌋* inquired of Yahweh (In those days the ark of the covenant of God was there, ²⁸ and Phinehas son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, was standing _⌊before it_⌋* to minister in those days), saying, "Should we go out once more to battle against the descendants* of Benjamin our relatives,* or should we stop?" And Yahweh said, "Go up tomorrow; I will give them* into your hand."

⁹ When David learned that Saul was plotting evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest, "Bring the ephod here." ¹⁰ And David said, "O Yahweh, God of Israel, your servant has clearly heard that Saul is seeking to come to Keilah to destroy the city because of me. ¹¹ Will the rulers of Keilah deliver me into his hand? Will Saul come down as your servant has heard? O Yahweh, God of Israel, please tell your servant!" And Yahweh said, "He will come down." ¹² Then David said, "Will the rulers of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul?" And Yahweh said, "They will deliver you."

⁶ And Saul inquired of Yahweh, but Yahweh did not answer him, not by dreams or by the Urim* or by the prophets.

⁷ Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, "Please bring the ephod here for me." So Abiathar brought the ephod to David. ⁸ And David inquired of Yahweh, saying, "Should I pursue after this band of raiders? Will I overtake them?" He said to him, "Pursue them, for you will certainly overtake them, and you will certainly rescue them."

⁶³ The governor said to them that they could not eat from the holy food of the sanctuary* until there was present a priest for the Urim and Thummim.

⁶⁵ So the governor said to them that they could not eat the most holy food until a priest could come with Urim and Thummim.

¹³ And he will build the temple of Yahweh, and he will bear majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he shall be a priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two of them." '*

¹¹ _⌊We have spoken freely and openly_⌋* to you, Corinthians; our heart is open wide. ¹² You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your affections.

³ I do not say this _⌊to condemn you_⌋*, because I have already said that you are in our hearts, so that we die together and we live together.

¹⁵ But I will spend and be expended most gladly for your lives. If I love you much more, am I to be loved less?

⁷ just as it is right for me to think this about all of you, because I have you in my heart, since* both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel all of you are sharers of grace with me. ⁸ For God is my witness, that I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.

¹⁷ Therefore he was obligated to be made like his brothers in all respects, in order that he could become a merciful and faithful high priest in the things relating to God, in order to make atonement for the sins of the people.

¹⁵ For we do not have a high priest who is not able to sympathize with our weaknesses, but who has been tempted in all things in the same way, without sin.

¹² and not by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, he entered once for all into the most holy place, obtaining eternal redemption.

²⁴ For Christ did not enter into a sanctuary made by hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf,

²⁸ And they will tie the breast piece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord to be on the waistband of the ephod, and the breast piece will not come loose from the ephod.

²² And he made the robe of the ephod, weaver's work, totally of blue yarn. ²³ And the opening of the robe in the middle of it was like the opening of a sturdy garment, with an edge for its opening all around so that it would not be torn. ²⁴ And they made on the hem of the robe pomegranates of finely twisted blue and purple and crimson.

¹⁴ And Uzziah prepared small shields, spears, helmets, breastplates, bows, and slingstones for the whole army.

¹⁶ From that day, half of my servants were working on craftsmanship, half were holding spears, small shields, bows, and breastplates. The commanders were behind the whole house of Judah.

²⁶ Reaching it with the sword does not avail, nor with the spear, the dart, or* the javelin.

²³ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothing and made four shares—for each soldier a share—and the tunic. (Now the tunic was seamless, woven from the top _⌊in a single piece_⌋.)* ²⁴ So they said to one another, "Let us not tear it apart, but cast lots for it, to see whose it will be," so that the scripture would be fulfilled that says,
"They divided my garments among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots."*
Thus the soldiers did these things.

³ being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace; ⁴ one body and one Spirit (just as also you were called with one hope of your calling), ⁵ one Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶ one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all. ⁷ Now to each one of us was given this grace, according to the measure of Christ's gift. ⁸ Therefore it says,
"Ascending on high he led captivity captive; he gave gifts to men."* ⁹ Now "he ascended," what is it, except that he also descended* to the lower regions of the earth? ¹⁰ The one who descended himself is also the one who ascended above all the heavens, in order that he might fill all things. ¹¹ And he himself gave some as apostles and some as prophets and some as evangelists and some as pastors and teachers ¹² for the equipping of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for building up the body of Christ, ¹³ until we all reach the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to a measure of the maturity of the fullness of Christ, ¹⁴ so that we may no longer be infants, tossed about by waves and carried about by every wind of teaching, by the trickery of people, by craftiness with reference to the scheming of deceit. ¹⁵ But speaking the truth in love, we are to grow into him with reference to all things, who is the head, Christ, ¹⁶ from whom the whole body, joined together and held together by every supporting ligament, according to the working by measure of each single part, the growth of the body makes for the building up of itself in love.

¹⁸ He also made the pillars with two rows around on the lattice, each to cover the capitals which were on top, out of the pomegranate-shaped ornaments, and thus he did for the second capital as well.

²⁰ On that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, "Holy to Yahweh." And the cooking pots in the house* of Yahweh will be holy like the sacrificial basins* before the altar.

¹⁵ Blessed are the people who know the joyful shout; O Yahweh, they walk about in the light of your countenance.

³ As an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade _⌊I sat down with delight_⌋,* and his fruit was sweet to my palate.

³ Your lips are like a thread of crimson, and your mouth is lovely. Your temple is like pomegranate from behind your veil.

¹³ Your shoots* are an orchard of pomegranates with _⌊choice fruit_⌋,* henna with nard;

⁷ Your cheeks _⌊behind_⌋* your veil are like halves of a pomegranate.

¹¹ I went down to the orchard of the walnut trees to look at the blossoms of the valley, to see whether the vines have sprouted, whether the pomegranates have blossomed.

² _⌊I would surely bring you_⌋** to the house of my mother, _⌊who would surely teach me_⌋;* _⌊I would give you spiced wine to drink_⌋,* the _⌊sweet wine_⌋* of my pomegranates.*

⁴ Remain in me, and I in you. Just as the branch is not able to bear fruit from itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. ⁵ "I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him—this one bears much fruit, for apart from me you are not able to do anything. ⁶ If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and dries up, and they gather them and throw them* into the fire, and they are burned. ⁷ If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you. ⁸ My Father is glorified by this: that you bear much fruit, and prove to be my disciples.

¹⁶ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and your fruit should remain, in order that whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.

⁵ because of the hope reserved for you in heaven, which you have heard about beforehand in the word of truth, the gospel, ⁶ that has come to you, just as also in all the world it is bearing fruit and increasing, just as also among you from the day you heard about and understood the grace of God in truth,

¹⁰ so that you may live in a manner worthy of the Lord, _⌊to please him in all respects_⌋*, bearing fruit in every good deed and increasing in the knowledge of God,

² And Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell* your brother Aaron that he should not enter at any time into the sanctuary _⌊behind_⌋* the curtain _⌊in front of_⌋* the atonement cover that is on the ark, so that he might not die, because I appear in the cloud over the atonement cover.

³⁰ And they made the rosette* of the holy diadem of pure gold, and they wrote on it with the writing of seal engravings: "A holy object for Yahweh."

⁹ and he placed the turban on his head, and on _⌊the front of_⌋* the turban he placed the gold rosette, the holy diadem, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

³ Therefore* Moses said to Aaron, "This is what Yahweh spoke, saying, 'Among those who are close to me I will show myself holy, and _⌊in the presence of_⌋* all the people I will display my glory.'"* So* Aaron was silent.

² "Speak to all the community of the _⌊Israelites_⌋,* and say to them, 'You* must be holy, because I, Yahweh your* God, am holy.

⁵ Your testimonies are fully reliable. Holiness is fitting for your house,* O Yahweh, _⌊forever_⌋.*

¹² This is the law* of the temple: On the top of the mountain, all of its territory, _⌊all the way around it_⌋,* _⌊will be most holy_⌋.* Look, this is the law of the temple.

¹⁴ Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.

¹⁵ but as the one who called you is holy, you yourselves be holy in all your conduct, ¹⁶ for it is written, "You will be holy, because I am* holy."**

⁹ But you are a chosen race,* a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's possession, so that you may proclaim the virtues of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light,

²⁷ And every unclean thing and one who practices* detestable things and falsehood will never enter into it, except those who are written in the book of life of the Lamb.

⁶ And you will set the turban on his head, and you will put the holy diadem on the turban.

⁵ And I said, "Let them put a clean headband* on his head." And they put a clean headband on his head, and they clothed him with garments. And the angel of Yahweh was standing by.

⁴³ And they will be on Aaron and on his sons when they come to the tent of assembly or when they approach the altar to serve in the sanctuary, so that they will not bear guilt and die. It is a lasting statute for him and for his offspring after him.

⁴ " 'He* must lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering and it will be accepted* for him in order to make atonement for him.

¹⁷ "Why did you not eat the sin offering on the sanctuary's site, because it is _⌊a most holy thing_⌋?* And he gave it to you to remove the community's guilt, to make atonement for them _⌊before_⌋* Yahweh.

⁹ " 'And they shall keep my obligation, and they shall not incur guilt because of it, so that* they die through it, because they have profaned it; I am Yahweh who consecrates them.

¹⁶ and so cause them, by their eating their votive offerings, to bear guilt requiring a guilt offering, because I am Yahweh, who consecrates them.'"

²⁷ "When an ox or a sheep or a goat is born, then* it shall be under its mother for seven days, and from the eighth day and beyond it is acceptable as an offering made by fire for Yahweh.

¹¹ And he shall wave the sheaf _⌊before_⌋* Yahweh for your acceptance; the priest shall wave it _⌊on the day after_⌋* the Sabbath.

¹ Yahweh said to Aaron, "You, your sons, and your family with you will bear the guilt of the sanctuary, and you and your sons with you will bear the guilt of your priesthood.

⁶ All of us have wandered about like sheep; we each have turned to his own way; and Yahweh let fall on him the iniquity of us all.

¹¹ From the trouble of his life* he will see;* he will be satisfied. In his knowledge, the righteous one, my servant, shall declare many righteous,* and he is the one who will bear their iniquities. ¹² Therefore, I will divide to him a portion among the many,* and with the strong ones he will divide bounty, _⌊because_⌋* he poured his life out to death and was counted with the transgressors; and* he was the one who bore the sin of many and will intercede for the transgressors.

⁷ I will bring them to _⌊my holy mountain_⌋;* I will make them merry in my house of prayer. their burnt offerings and their sacrifices _⌊will be accepted_⌋* on my altar, for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples,"

⁷ All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth shall serve you. They shall present a sacrifice for favor on my altar, and I will glorify _⌊my honorable house_⌋.*

⁴ And you, lie down on your left side, and you must put* the guilt of the house of Israel on it. You will carry their guilt the number of days that you will lie on it. ⁵ And I will give to you the years of their guilt according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days, and you must bear the guilt* of the house of Israel. ⁶ When you have completed these, then you must lie a second time on your right side; and you must bear the guilt* of the house of Judah forty days, a day for each year, a day for each year I give it to you.

²⁹ On the next day he saw Jesus coming to him and said, "Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

²¹ He made the one who did not know sin to be sin on our behalf, in order that we could become the righteousness of God in him.

⁶ to the praise of the glory of his grace that he bestowed on us in the beloved,

²⁸ thus also Christ, having been offered once in order to bear the sins of many, will appear for the second time without reference to sin to those who eagerly await him for salvation.

⁵ And you yourselves, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

²⁴ who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we may die to sins and live to righteousness, by whose wounds you were healed.

¹⁸ For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, in order that he could bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,

¹⁴ She is brought to the king in colorful garments. The young women behind her, her attendants, are being brought to you.

² And you will make holy garments* for Aaron, your brother, for glory and for splendor.*

²⁷ And they made the tunics of fine linen, a weaver's work, for Aaron and for his sons, ²⁸ and the turban of fine linen and the headdresses of the headbands of fine linen and undergarments of the linen cloth, finely twisted, ²⁹ and the sash of finely twisted linen and blue and purple and crimson yarns, the work of an embroiderer, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

⁴¹ the woven garments for serving in the sanctuary—the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests.

¹³ Then* Moses brought Aaron's sons near and clothed* them with tunics and tied* a sash around _⌊each one_⌋,* and he bound headbands on* them, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

¹⁷ _⌊And then_⌋* _⌊when they come_⌋* to the gates of the inner courtyards, they shall put on their* inner linen garments and not wear wool garments _⌊when they serve_⌋* in the gates of the inner courtyard and _⌊inside_⌋* the temple. ¹⁸ Linen turbans shall be on their head and linen undergarments shall be on their waists; they shall not gird themselves with material causing perspiration.

⁹ Likewise also the women should adorn themselves in appropriate clothing, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold jewelry or pearls or expensive clothing, ¹⁰ but with good deeds which are fitting for women who profess godliness.

⁹ But those who want to be rich fall into temptation and a trap and many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge those people into ruin and destruction. ¹⁰ For the love of money is a root of all evil, by which some, because they* desire it, have gone astray from the faith and have pierced themselves with many pains. ¹¹ But you, O man of God, flee from these things, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patient endurance, gentleness.

⁷ concerning everything showing yourself to be an example of good deeds, in your teaching demonstrating soundness, dignity,

¹⁰ not stealing, but demonstrating all good faith, in order that they may do credit to the teaching of God our Savior in everything.

³ Let your* adornment not be the external kind, braiding hair and putting on gold jewelry or putting on fine clothing, ⁴ but the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is highly valuable in the sight of God.

⁵ In the same way, younger men, be subject to the elders, and all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

¹ "And bring near to you Aaron, your brother, and his sons with him from the midst of the _⌊Israelites_⌋* to serve as priests for me—Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron.

⁷ And you will take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.

²⁴ you will put them all on the palms of Aaron and on the palms of his sons, and you will wave them as a wave offering before Yahweh.

³⁵ And you will do so for Aaron and for his sons, according to all that I have commanded you; seven days you will ordain them.

²³ "And take for yourself top quality balsam oils, five hundred shekels of flowing myrrh, half as much—two hundred and fifty shekels of fragrant cinnamon, and two hundred and fifty shekels of fragrant reed, ²⁴ and five hundred shekels of cassia, according to the sanctuary shekel, and a hin of olive oil. ²⁵ And you will make it into holy anointing oil, a spice blend of a fragrant ointment the work of a perfumer; it will be holy anointing oil. ²⁶ And you will anoint with it the tent of assembly and the ark of the testimony, ²⁷ and the table and all its equipment and the lampstand and its equipment and the incense altar, ²⁸ and the altar of burnt offering and all its equipment and the basin and its stand. ²⁹ And you will consecrate them, and they will be most holy things; _⌊anyone who_⌋* touches them will be holy. ³⁰ And you will anoint Aaron and his sons, and you will consecrate them to serve as priests for me.

¹⁵ And you will anoint them as you anointed their father, and they will serve as priests for me. And their anointing will be for them to be a lasting priesthood* throughout their generations."

¹ Then* Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, ² "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments and the anointing oil and the bull of the sin offering and the two rams and the basket of the unleavened bread, ³ and summon all of the community to the entrance to* the tent of assembly." ⁴ So* Moses did just as Yahweh commanded him, and the community gathered by the entrance to* the tent of assembly. ⁵ Then* Moses said to the community, "This is the word that Yahweh has commanded to be done."* ⁶ So* Moses brought Aaron and his sons near, and he washed them with water. ⁷ Then* he put the tunic on him and tied* the sash around him; then* he clothed him with the robe and put* the ephod on him; then* he tied the ephod's waistband around him and fastened* the ephod* to him with it. ⁸ Then* he placed the breastpiece on him and put* the Urim and the Thummim into the breastpiece; ⁹ and he placed the turban on his head, and on _⌊the front of_⌋* the turban he placed the gold rosette, the holy diadem, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ¹⁰ Then* Moses took the anointing oil and anointed* the tabernacle and all that was in it, and he consecrated them. ¹¹ And he spattered _⌊part of_⌋* it on the altar seven times—thus* he anointed the altar and all of its utensils, and the basin and its stand, to consecrate them. ¹² Then* he poured out _⌊part of_⌋* the anointing oil on Aaron's head—thus* he anointed him in order to consecrate him. ¹³ Then* Moses brought Aaron's sons near and clothed* them with tunics and tied* a sash around _⌊each one_⌋,* and he bound headbands on* them, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ¹⁴ Then* he brought forth the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons placed their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering, ¹⁵ and he slaughtered it, and Moses took the blood and put* it with his finger on the altar's horns all around and purified the altar; then* he poured the blood out on the altar's base—thus* he consecrated it in order to make atonement for it.* ¹⁶ Then* he took all the fat that was on the inner parts* and the lobe on the liver and the two kidneys and their fat, and Moses turned them into smoke on the altar, ¹⁷ but* he burned the bull and its skin and its meat and its offal in the fire _⌊outside the camp_⌋,* just as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ¹⁸ Then* he brought the ram of the burnt offering near, and Aaron and his sons placed their hands on the ram's head, ¹⁹ and he slaughtered it. Then* Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar all around. ²⁰ Then* he cut the ram into pieces, and Moses turned into smoke the head and the pieces and the suet, ²¹ but* he washed the inner parts* and the lower leg bones with water, and Moses turned into smoke all of the ram on the altar; it was a burnt offering as an appeasing fragrance, an offering made by fire for* Yahweh, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ²² Then* he brought the second ram near, the ram of the consecration, and Aaron and his sons placed their hands on the ram's head, ²³ and he slaughtered it. Then* Moses took _⌊some of_⌋* its blood and put* it on Aaron's right ear lobe and on his right hand's thumb and on his right foot's big toe. ²⁴ Then* he brought Aaron's sons near, and Moses put _⌊some of_⌋* the blood on their right ear lobe and on their right hand's thumb and on their right foot's big toe, and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar all around. ²⁵ Then* he took the fat and the fat tail and all of the fat that was on the inner parts* and the lobe of the liver and the two kidneys and their fat and the right upper thigh; ²⁶ and from the basket of the unleavened bread that was before Yahweh he took one ring-shaped unleavened bread and one ring-shaped bread with* oil and one wafer, and he placed them on the _⌊fat parts_⌋* and on the right upper thigh. ²⁷ Then* he put _⌊all of these_⌋* on Aaron's palms and on his sons' palms, and he waved them as a wave offering _⌊before_⌋* Yahweh. ²⁸ Then* Moses took them from upon their palms, and he turned them into smoke upon the burnt offering on the altar; they were a consecration offering as an appeasing fragrance—it was an offering made by fire for* Yahweh. ²⁹ Then* Moses took the breast section, and he waved it as a wave offering _⌊before_⌋* Yahweh from the ram of the consecration offering; it was Moses' share, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses. ³⁰ Then* Moses took _⌊some of_⌋* the anointing oil and _⌊some of_⌋* the blood that was on the altar, and he spattered them on Aaron, on his garments, and on Aaron's sons and on his sons' garments with him—thus* he consecrated Aaron, his garments, and his sons and his sons' garments with him. ³¹ Then* Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the meat in the entrance to* the tent of assembly, and there you must eat it and the bread that is in the basket of the consecration offering, just as I have commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons must eat it,' ³² but* the remainder of the meat and the bread you* must burn in the fire. ³³ And you must not go out from the entrance to* the tent of assembly for seven days, until the day of fulfilling the days of your* consecration, because _⌊it will take seven days to ordain you_⌋.* ³⁴ Just as was done* on this day, Yahweh commanded to be done* in order to make atonement for you.* ³⁵ And you* must stay at the entrance to* the tent of assembly day and night for seven days, and you* shall keep the obligation from* Yahweh, so you* might not die, for thus I have been commanded." ³⁶ So* Aaron and his sons did all the things that Yahweh had commanded _⌊through_⌋* Moses.

⁷ but* you must not go out from the entrance to* the tent of assembly lest you die, because Yahweh's anointing oil is on you." So* they did according to Moses' word.

³ These are the names of the descendants of Aaron, the priests, the anointed ones whom _⌊he consecrated as priests_⌋.*

²⁷ And this shall happen: on that day,
he will remove his burden from your shoulder and his yoke from your neck, _⌊and a yoke will be destroyed because of fat_⌋.*

¹ The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is upon me, because Yahweh has anointed me, he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up _⌊the brokenhearted_⌋,* to _⌊proclaim_⌋* release to the captives and liberation to those who are bound,

²⁶ Seven days they must purify the altar and they must cleanse it and so _⌊they will consecrate it_⌋.*

³⁴ For the one whom God sent speaks the words of God, for he does not give the Spirit by measure.

²¹ Now the one who establishes us together with you in Christ and who anoints us is God, ²² who also sealed us and gave the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

⁴ And someone does not take for himself the honor, but is called by God, just as Aaron also was.

²⁸ For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the statement of the oath, after the law, appoints a Son, who is made perfect _⌊forever_⌋*.

²⁰ And you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.

²⁷ And as for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you do not have need that anyone teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you reside* in him.

²⁶ You will not go up with steps onto my altar, that your nakedness not be exposed on it.'

¹⁰ And the priest shall put on his linen robe, and he must put his linen undergarments on his body, and he shall take away the fatty ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has consumed on the altar, and he shall place them* beside the altar.

⁴ He must put on _⌊a holy linen tunic_⌋,* and linen undergarments must be on his body, and he must fasten himself* with a linen sash, and he must wrap a linen turban around his head*—they are holy garments, and he shall wash his body with water, then* he shall put them on.

¹⁸ Linen turbans shall be on their head and linen undergarments shall be on their waists; they shall not gird themselves with material causing perspiration.

¹⁸ I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire, in order that you may become rich, and white clothing, in order that you may be clothed and the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed, and eye salve to smear on your eyes, in order that you may see.

²¹ In the tent of assembly outside the curtain that is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons will arrange it, from evening until morning, before Yahweh as a lasting statute throughout their generations from the _⌊Israelites_⌋.*

¹ " 'When a person* sins in that* he hears the utterance of a curse and he is a witness or he sees or he knows, if he does not make it known, then* he shall bear his guilt.

¹⁷ "If* a person* when he sins _⌊violates_⌋* one from all of Yahweh's commands that should not _⌊be violated_⌋,* but* he did not know, then* he is guilty and he shall bear his guilt.

⁷ And _⌊they may no longer sacrifice_⌋* their sacrifices to the goat-idols after which they were prostituting. This is _⌊a lasting statute_⌋* for them _⌊throughout_⌋* their generations." '

¹⁹ And you shall not expose the nakedness of your mother's sister, and you shall not expose your father's sister, because such a person* has dishonored his close relative—they must bear their guilt. ²⁰ As for* a man who lies with his aunt, he has exposed his uncle's nakedness—they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

¹³ But the man who is clean and not on a journey, and he fails to observe the Passover, that person will be cut off from the people because he did not present the offering of Yahweh on its appointed time. That man will bear his guilt.

²² The _⌊Israelites_⌋* will not come near again to the tent of assembly, or _⌊they will bear sin_⌋* and die.

¹² And he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here, not having wedding clothes?' But _⌊he could say nothing_⌋.* ¹³ Then the king said to the servants, 'Tie him up _⌊hand and foot_⌋* and* throw him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!'
