²⁰ And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were borne: Manasseh and Ephraim which Asenath the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On bare unto him.

⁵ Now therefore thy two sons Manasseh and Ephraim which were born unto thee before I came to thee, into Egypt, shall be mine: even as Reuben and Simeon shall they be unto me.

¹³ Then took Joseph them both: Ephraim in his righthand, toward Israel's lefthand, and Manasseh in his lefthand, toward Israel's righthand, and brought them unto him. ¹⁴ And Israel stretched out his righthand and laid it upon Ephraim's head which was the younger, and his lefthand upon Manasseh's head, crossing his hands; for Manasseh was the elder. ¹⁵ And he blessed Joseph saying, "God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, and the God which hath fed me all my life long unto this day; ¹⁶ And the angel which hath delivered me from all evil, bless these lads: that they may be called after my name, and after my father Abraham and Isaac, and that they may grow and multiply upon the earth." ¹⁷ When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. And he lift up his father's hand, to have removed it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head, ¹⁸ and said unto his father, "Not so my father, for this is the eldest. Put thy righthand upon his head." ¹⁹ And his father would not, but said, "I know it well my son, I know it well. He shall be also a people and shall be great. But of a truth his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall be full of people." ²⁰ And he blessed them, saying, "At the example of these, the Israelites shall bless and say, 'God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh.'" Thus set he Ephraim before Manasseh.

¹⁴ And Israel stretched out his righthand and laid it upon Ephraim's head which was the younger, and his lefthand upon Manasseh's head, crossing his hands; for Manasseh was the elder.

³⁹ And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and put out the Amorites that were therein. ⁴⁰ And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh and he dwelt therein.

¹ And the ancient heads of the children of Gilead the son of Machir the son of Manasseh of the kindred of the children of Joseph, came forth and spake before Moses and the princes which were ancient heads among the children of Israel,

¹⁵ And I gave half Gilead unto Machir.

¹ And the tribe of Manasseh which was the eldest son of Joseph received a lot. And Machir, the eldest son of Manasseh, which was the father of Gilead and a man of war, had Gilead and Bashan.

¹⁴ Ephraim was the first against Amalek, and after them Benjamin, among the people. Of Machir came learned men in the law, and of Zebulun that well could draw with the pen of a scribe.

¹⁴ The sons of Manasseh: Asriel which Aramea his concubine bare: she bare also Machir the father of Gilead. ¹⁵ And Machir gave to Huppim and Shuppim wives. And the name of his sister was Maacah. And the name of another son was Zelophehad. And Zelophehad had daughters. ¹⁶ And Maacah the wife of Machir bare a son and called his name Peresh, and the name of his brother was Sheresh and his sons were Ulam and Rakem. The son of Ulam was Bedan. ¹⁷ These are the sons of Gilead, the son of Machir the son of Manasseh. ¹⁸ And his sister Hammolecheth bare Ishhod, Abiezer and Mahlah. ¹⁹ And the sons of Shemida were Ahian, Shechem, Likhi and Aniam.

² And the rest of the children of Manasseh received by their kindreds: which were the children of Abiezer; the children of Helek: the children of Asriel: the children of Shechem, the children of Hepher: the children of Shemida. These are the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph in their kindreds.

¹¹ And the Angel of the LORD came and sat under an oak in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the father of the Abiezrites. And his son Gideon pressed out wheat out of the ears in a press, for to flee from the Midianites.

²⁴ Then Gideon made an altar there unto the LORD and called it Jehovah Shalom; The LORD is the Peace. Which unto this day is yet in Ophrah that pertaineth unto the father of the Abiezrites.

³⁴ the spirit of the LORD entered into Gideon. And he blew a trumpet, and called Abiezer to follow him;

² And he said unto them, "What deed have I done like unto yours: are not the clusters of Ephraim better than the wine harvest of Abiezer?

¹ And the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Heber the son of Gilead, the son of Machir the son of Manasseh, of the kindreds of Manasseh the son of Joseph — whose names were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah -

¹⁰ And as the LORD commanded Moses, even so did the daughters of Zelophehad: ¹¹ Mahela, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah and Noah, and were married unto their fathers' brothers' sons, ¹² of the kindred of the children of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and so they had their inheritance in the tribe of the kindred of their father.

³⁴ Among the children of Manasseh, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when the names of all that were apt to war were told, ³⁵ from twenty and above — were numbered in the tribe of Manasseh thirty two thousand and two hundred.

²⁰ And fast by him, the tribe of Manasseh; and the captain over the sons of Manasseh, Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur: ²¹ and his host, and the number of them, thirty two thousand and two hundred.

²⁰ The sons of Ephraim: Shuthelah, whose son was Bered, and Tahath his son, and his son Eleadah, and Tahath his son, ²¹ and Zabad his son, and Shuthelah his son, and Ezer and Elead. And the men of Gath that were born in the land, slew them, because they were come down to take away their cattle.

³² Among the children of Joseph, first among the children of Ephraim, their generation, in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — when the names of all that were apt to the war were told, from twenty years and above - ³³ were in number in the tribe of Ephraim, forty thousand, and six hundred.

¹⁸ "On the west side, the standard and the host of Ephraim shall lie with their companies; and the captain over the sons of Ephraim, Elishama the son of Ammihud: ¹⁹ and his host, and the number of them, forty thousand and five hundred.

² And God said unto Israel in a vision by night, and called unto him, "Jacob, Jacob." And he answered, "Here am I."

²¹ The children of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim and Ard.

⁶ The sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher and Jediael, three. ⁷ The sons of Bela: Ezbon, Uzzi, Uzziel, Jerimoth and Iri, five heads of ancient houses and men of might and were in number twenty two thousand and thirty four. ⁸ The sons of Becher: Zemirah, Joash, Eliezer, Elioenai, Omri, Jeremoth, Abijah, Anathoth and Alemeth. ⁹ All these are the children of Becher, and were reckoned in their kindreds with the heads of the ancient households of them that were men of power, twenty thousand and two hundred. ¹⁰ The sons of Jediael: Bilhan. The sons of Bilhan: Jeush, Benjamin, Ehud and Chenaanah, Zethan, Tarshish and Ahishahar. ¹¹ All these are the sons of Jediael and ancient heads and men of might seventeen thousand and two hundred that went out to battle. ¹² And Shuppim and Huppim were the children of Ir. And the Hushites were the children of Aher.

¹ Benjamin begat Bela his eldest son, Ashbel the second, Aharah the third,

²² And the tribe of Benjamin also; and the captain over the sons of Benjamin, Abidan the son of Gedeoni: ²³ and his host and the number of them thirty five thousand and four hundred.

²³ The children of Dan: Hushim.

³⁸ Among the children of Dan, their generation in their kindreds and houses of their fathers — in the sum of names of all that was apt to war, ³⁹ from twenty years and above — were numbered in the tribe of Dan fifty seven thousand and seven hundred.

²⁵ "And the standard and the host of Dan shall lie on the north side with their companies; and the captain over the children of Dan, Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai: ²⁶ and his host, and the number of them, sixty two thousand and seven hundred.

¹⁷ The children of Asher: Imnah, Isvah, Ishvi, Beriah and Serah their sister. And the children of Beriah were Heber and Malchiel.

³⁰ The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Isvi, Beriah and Serah their sister.

²⁷ And fast by him shall the tribe of Asher pitch; and the captain over the sons of Asher, Pagiel the son of Ochran: ²⁸ and his host, and the number of them, forty one thousand and five hundred.

²⁹ And the tribe of Naphtali also; and the captain over the children of Naphtali, Ahira the son of Enan: ³⁰ and his host, and the number of them, fifty three thousand and four hundred.

³⁷ Thus took the children of Israel their journey from Rameses to Succoth; six hundred thousand men of foot, beside children.

²⁶ Every man offering half a sicle after the weight of the holy sicle among them that went to be numbered from twenty years old and above, among six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.

⁴⁶ drew unto the sum of six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty.

³² These are the sums of the children of Israel in the houses of their fathers, even all the numbers of the hosts with their companies: six hundred thousand three thousand five hundred and fifty.

²¹ And Moses said, "Six hundred thousand footmen are there of the people, among which I am. And thou hast said, 'I will give them flesh and they shall eat a month long.'

²³ And their children multipliedest thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land whereof thou hadst spoken unto their fathers, that they should go in to it, and have it in possession.

⁹ What is he, but he knoweth that the hand of the LORD made all these? ¹⁰ In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all men.

¹⁴ If he break down a thing, who can set it up again? If he shut a thing, who will open it?

²⁰ He taketh the verity from out of the mouth, and disappointeth the aged of their wisdom. ²¹ He poureth out confusion upon princes, and comforteth them that have been oppressed. ²² "Look: what lieth hid in darkness, he declareth it openly! And the very shadow of death bringeth he to light! ²³ He both increaseth the people and destroyeth them; He maketh them to multiply, and driveth them away.

²⁰ Thou leddest thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

² And I will make of thee a mighty people, and will bless thee, and make thy name great, that thou mayst be a blessing.

⁷ Then the LORD appeared unto Abram and said, "Unto thy seed will I give this land." And he built an altar there unto the LORD which appeared to him.

²³ And Joshua took the whole land according to all that the LORD said unto Moses, and gave it a possession unto Israel, every man his part in their tribes: and the land rested from war.

¹ And these are the countries which the children inherited in the land of Canaan, unto which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun and the ancient heads of the tribes of the children of Israel,

¹⁴ They lie in the hell like sheep, death gnaweth upon them, and the righteous shall have domination of them in the morning. Their beauty shall consume in the sepulchre, and hell shall be their dwelling.

⁴⁴ and gave them the lands of the Heathen; where they took the labours of the people in possession,

²² and divide it to be a heritage for you, and for the strangers that dwell among you, and begotten children. For ye shall take them among the children of Israel, like as though they were of your own household and country, and they shall have heritage with you among the children of Israel.

²⁷ As for the kingdom, power, and all might that is under the heaven: it shall be given to the holy people of the most highest, whose kingdom is everlasting. Yea, all powers shall serve and obey him.'

⁵ Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

¹⁰ and hast made us unto our God, kings and priests and we shall reign on the earth."

²⁷ And there shall enter into it none unclean thing; neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh lies, but they only which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

³ "The land of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,

⁵ Wherefore," said they, "if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants to possess, and bring us not over Jordan."

⁵⁴ And ye shall divide the inheritance of the land by lot among your kindreds, and give to the more the more inheritance, and to the fewer the less inheritance. And your inheritance shall be in the tribes of your fathers, in the place where every man's lot falleth.

¹⁴ And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, "Why hast thou given us but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing we be much people, and forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed us so?"

⁵⁶ and according to their lot thou shalt divide their land, both to the many and to the few."

¹³ And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, "This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, and which the LORD commanded to give unto nine tribes and a half:

² gave them their inheritance by lot, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, to give unto the nine tribes, and unto the half tribe of Manasseh.

⁶ Describe ye the land therefore into seven parts, and bring the description to me hither, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

¹⁰ And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD, and there he divided the land unto the children of Israel, to each their portion. ¹¹ And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their kindreds. And the coasts of their lot came out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

¹ And the second lot came out unto the tribe of the children of Simeon by their kindreds. And their inheritance fell in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah.

¹⁰ And the third lot came unto the children of Zebulun according unto their kindreds. And the coasts of their inheritance came to Sarid,

¹⁷ And the fourth lot came out to the children of Issachar by their kindreds.

²⁴ And the fifth lot came out unto the tribe of the children of Asher by their kindreds.

³² And the sixth lot came out unto the children of Naphtali by their kindreds.

⁴⁰ And the seventh lot fell to the tribe of Dan by their kindreds.

³³ The lots are cast into the lap, but their fall standeth in the LORD.

¹⁸ The lot pacifieth the variance, and parteth the mighty asunder.

²⁶ And they gave forth their lots, and the lot fell on Mathias. And he was counted with the eleven apostles.

¹² giving thanks unto the father which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of saints in light.

⁴ And I heard the number of them which were sealed, and there were sealed a hundred and forty four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. ⁵ Of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Ruben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. ⁶ Of the tribe of Asher were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Naphtali were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasseh were sealed twelve thousand. ⁷ Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

⁷ What then? Israel hath not obtained that that he sought. No but yet the election hath obtained it. The remnant are blinded,

⁴ There are diversities of gifts verily, yet but one spirit.

¹¹ The children of Levi: Gershon, Kohath and Merari.

¹⁶ These are the names of the children of Levi in their generations: Gershon, Kohath and Merari. And Levi lived a hundred and thirty seven years. ¹⁷ The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei in their kindreds. ¹⁸ The children of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. And Kohath lived a hundred and thirty three years. ¹⁹ The children of Merari are these: Mahli and Mushi: these are the kindreds of Levi in their generations.

¹ These are the generations of Aaron and Moses, when the LORD spake unto Moses in Mount Sinai, ² and these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the eldest son, and Abihu; Eleazar and Ithamar. ³ These are the names of the sons of Aaron which were priests anointed and their hands filled to minister, ⁴ but Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, as they brought strange fire before the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai, and had no children. And Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the sight of Aaron their father.

² "Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites, of the inheritance of their possession, cities to dwell in. And ye shall give also unto the cities of the Levites, suburbs round about them. ³ The cities shall be for them to dwell in, and the suburbs for their cattle, possession and all manner beasts of theirs.

¹ The sons of Levi: Gershom, Kohath and Merari.

¹⁶ The sons of Levi now are these: Gershom, Kohath and Merari. ¹⁷ And these be the names of the sons of Gershom: Libni and Shimei. ¹⁸ And the sons of Kohath were Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. ¹⁹ The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. These are the kindreds of Levi concerning their ancient fathers. ²⁰ The son of Gershom was Libni, and his son Jahath, and his son Zimmah, ²¹ and his son Joah, and his son Iddo, and his son Zerah, and his son Jeatherai. ²² The sons of Kohath: Amminadab and his son Korah, and his son Assir, ²³ and his son Elkanah, and his son Ebiasaph, and his son Assir, ²⁴ and his son Tahath; and Uriel was his son, and Uzziah his son, and Shaul was his son. ²⁵ The sons of Elkanah: Amasai, Ahimoth and Elkanah. ²⁶ The sons of Elkanah: Zophai whose son was Nahath, ²⁷ and his son Eliab and Jeroham his son, and Elkanah his son, ²⁸ and Samuel the son of him.

²⁰ And Amram took Jochebed his niece to wife which bare him Aaron and Moses. And Amram lived a hundred and thirty seven years.

¹⁷ And these are the names of the children of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. ¹⁸ And these are the names of the children of Gershon in their kindreds: Libni and Shimei. ¹⁹ And the sons of Kohath in their kindred were Amram, Izhar, Hebron and Uzziel. ²⁰ And the sons of Merari in their kindreds were Mahli and Mushi. These are the kindreds of Levi in the houses of their fathers. ²¹ And of Gershon came the kindred of the Libnites and the Shimeites, which are the kindreds of the Gershonites.

¹ And Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi; and Dathan and Abiram, the son of Eliab; and On the son of Peleth, the sons of Reuben,

¹ And there went a man of the house of Levi and took a daughter of Levi. ² And the wife conceived and bare a son. And when she saw that it was a proper child, she hid him three months long.

¹² Thou shalt not uncover the privities of thy father's sister, for she is thy father's next kin.

² and these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the eldest son, and Abihu; Eleazar and Ithamar.

⁸ And they shall wait upon all the apparel of the tabernacle of witness, and upon the children of Israel, to do the service of the habitation.

¹ And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censor, and put fire therein, and put cense upon; and brought strange fire before the LORD: which he commanded them not. ² And there went a fire out from the LORD, and consumed them, and they died before the LORD.

⁴ but Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, as they brought strange fire before the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai, and had no children. And Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the sight of Aaron their father.

¹ The division of the sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. ² But Nadab and Abihu died before their father and had no children. And Eleazar and Ithamar were the Priests.

⁴⁷ But the Levites in the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.

⁴⁹ "Only see that thou number not the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel.

³⁹ And the whole sum of the Levites which Moses and Aaron numbered, at the commandment of the LORD — throughout their kindreds, even of all the males of a month old and above — was twenty two thousand.

²⁷ And at the mouth of Aaron and his sons, shall all the service of the children of the Gershonites be done, in all their charges and in all their service, and ye shall appoint them unto all their charges that they shall wait upon.

⁴⁸ was eight thousand, five hundred and eighty,

²⁰ And the LORD spake unto Aaron, "Thou shalt have none inheritance in their land, nor part among them. For I am thy part and thy inheritance among the children of Israel. ²¹ And behold, I have given the children of Levi the tenth in Israel to inherit, for the service which they serve in the tabernacle of witness, ²² that the children of Israel henceforth come not nigh the tabernacle of witness, and bear sin and die. ²³ And the Levites shall do the service in the tabernacle of witness and bear their sin, and it shall be a law forever unto your children after you: But among the children of Israel they shall inherit none inheritance. ²⁴ For the tithes of the children of Israel which they heave unto the LORD, I have given the Levites to inherit. Wherefore I have said unto them, 'Among the children of Israel ye shall inherit none inheritance.'"

² "Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites, of the inheritance of their possession, cities to dwell in. And ye shall give also unto the cities of the Levites, suburbs round about them. ³ The cities shall be for them to dwell in, and the suburbs for their cattle, possession and all manner beasts of theirs. ⁴ And the suburbs of the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city outward, a thousand cubits round about. ⁵ And ye shall measure without the city, and make the utmost border of the east side: two thousand cubits. And the utmost border of the south side: two thousand cubits. And the utmost border of the west side: two thousand cubits. And the utmost border of the north side: two thousand cubits also. And the city shall be in the midst. And these shall be the suburbs of their cities. ⁶ "And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites, there shall be six cities of franchise which ye shall give to that intent that he which committeth a slaughter, may fly thither. And to them ye shall add forty two cities more: ⁷ so that all the cities which ye shall give the Levites shall be forty eight, with their suburbs. ⁸ And of the cities which ye shall give out of the possessions of the children of Israel, ye shall give many out of their possessions that have much and few out of their possessions that have little: so that every tribe shall give of his cities unto the Levites, according to the inheritance which he inheriteth."

⁹ Wherefore the Levites have no part nor inheritance with their brethren. The LORD he is their inheritance, as the LORD thy God hath promised them.

²⁷ and the Levite that is in thy city. See thou forsake not the Levite, for he hath neither part nor inheritance with thee. ²⁸ At the end of three years, thou shalt bring forth all the tithes of thine increase the same year and lay it up within thine own city, ²⁹ and the Levite shall come because he hath neither part nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow which are within thy city, and shall eat and fill themselves: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the works of thine hand which thou doest.

¹ The priests the Levites, all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel. The offerings of the LORD and his inheritance they shall eat, ² but shall have no inheritance among their brethren: the LORD he is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.

¹⁴ Only unto the tribe of Levi, he gave none inheritance: for the offering of the LORD God of Israel is their inheritance as he said unto them.

³³ But unto the tribe of Levi Moses gave none inheritance, "For the LORD God of Israel he is their inheritance," as he said unto them.

³ For Moses had given inheritance unto two tribes and a half on the other side Jordan. But unto the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.

³ And Moses and Eleazar the priest told them in the fields of Moab by Jordan, fast by Jericho,

¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of witness, the first day of the second month, and in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying, ² "Take ye the sum of all the multitude of the children of Israel, in their kindreds and households of their fathers and number them by name all that are males, poll by poll,

²⁹ Your carcasses shall lie in this wilderness, neither shall any of these numbers which were numbered from twenty years and above of you which have murmured against me

¹⁴ The space in which we came from Kadesh Barnea until we were come over the river Zered was thirty eight years: until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out of the host, as the LORD sware unto them. ¹⁵ For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them out of the host, till they were consumed.

³ Your eyes have seen what the LORD did unto Baal-Peor: for all the men that followed Baal-Peor, the LORD your God hath destroyed from among you. ⁴ But ye that clave unto the LORD your God are alive, every one of you, this day.

⁵ But in many of them had God no delight. For they were overthrown in the wilderness.

¹⁷ But with whom was he displeased forty years? Was he not displeased with them that sinned: whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?

²³ there shall not one see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that railed upon me, see it. ²⁴ But my servant Caleb, because there is another manner spirit with him, and because he hath followed me unto the utmost: him I will bring into the land which he hath walked in, and his seed shall conquer it,

²⁸ Tell them that the LORD sayeth, 'As truly as I live, I will do unto you even as ye have spoken in mine ears. ²⁹ Your carcasses shall lie in this wilderness, neither shall any of these numbers which were numbered from twenty years and above of you which have murmured against me ³⁰ come in to the land over which I lifted mine hand to make you dwell therein — save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

³⁵ I, the LORD, have said that I will do it unto all this evil congregation that are gathered together against me: even in this wilderness ye shall be consumed, and here ye shall die."

³⁸ But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.

⁴⁹ "Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho: and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel to possess. ⁵⁰ And die in the mount which thou goest upon, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor and was gathered unto his people.

⁶ And the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said unto him, "Thou knowest what the LORD said unto Moses the man of God, about me and thee in Kadesh Barnea. ⁷ Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. And I brought them word again even as I thought in mine heart. ⁸ Nevertheless, my brethren that went up with me discouraged the hearts of the people. But I followed the LORD my God even unto the end. ⁹ And Moses sware the same season saying, 'The land whereon thy feet have trodden, shall be thine inheritance and thy children forever because thou hast followed the LORD my God continually.' ¹⁰ And now behold, the LORD hath kept me lusty, as he said, this forty and five years, even since the LORD spake unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. And now see I am this day four score and five years:

³ Thou turnest man to destruction; Again, thou sayest, "Come again, ye children of men." ⁴ For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday, seeing that is passed as a watch in the night. ⁵ As soon as thou scatterest them, they are even as asleep, and fade away suddenly like the grass. ⁶ In the morning it is green and groweth up; but in the evening it is cut down, dried up, and withered. ⁷ For we consume away in thy displeasure, and are afraid at thy wrathful indignation.

²² Behold the kindness and rigorousness of God: on them which fell, rigorousness: but towards thee, kindness; if thou continue in his kindness. Or else thou shalt be hewn off,

⁵ But in many of them had God no delight. For they were overthrown in the wilderness. ⁶ These are examples to us that we should not lust after evil things, as they lusted.

¹⁷ But with whom was he displeased forty years? Was he not displeased with them that sinned: whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert? ¹⁸ To whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but unto them that believed not?

⁵ My mind is therefore to put you in remembrance, forasmuch as ye once know this, how that the Lord — after that he had delivered the people out of Egypt — destroyed them which afterward believed not:
