²⁷ Ye shall say, 'It is the sacrifice of the LORD's Passover, which passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, as he smote the Egyptians and saved our houses.'" Then the people bowed themselves and worshipped.

²⁹ And at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his seat, unto the firstborn of the captive that was in prison, and all firstborn of the cattle.

⁸ And thou shalt show thy son at that time, saying, 'This is done, because of that which the LORD did unto me when I came out of Egypt.' ⁹ Therefore it shall be a sign unto thee upon thine hand and a remembrance between thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in thy mouth. For with a strong hand the LORD brought thee out of Egypt;

¹⁴ And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, 'What is this?' Thou shalt say unto him, 'With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. ¹⁵ And when Pharaoh was loath to let us go, the LORD slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: as well the firstborn of men as of beasts. And therefore I sacrifice unto the LORD all the males that open the matrix, but all the firstborn of my children I must redeem.' ¹⁶ And this shall be as a token in thine hand, and as a thing hanged up between thine eyes: because the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand."

⁴⁵ and these are the witness, ordinances and statutes which Moses told the children of Israel after they came out of Egypt,

⁴⁹ "And the LORD shall bring a nation upon thee from afar, even from the end of the world, as swift as an eagle flyeth: a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

¹⁵ Thou, with thine arm, hast delivered thy people, even the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

⁶ that their posterity might know it, and the children which were yet unborn, to the intent that when they came up, they might show their children the same;

¹ {To the Chanter, upon Shoshannim, a Psalm of Asaph} Hear, O thou shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Jacob like a flock of sheep; show thyself, thou that sittest upon the Cherubim. ² Before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh; stir up thy power, and come help us.

¹ When Israel came out of Egypt, and the house of Jacob from among that strange people,

¹¹ And therefore the LORD also shall speak with lisping lips and with a strange language unto this people, to whom he spake afore of this manner:

¹⁵ Lo, I will bring a people upon you from far, O house of Israel, sayeth the LORD; a mighty people, an old people, a people whose speech thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.

²¹ In the law it is written, "With other tongues, and with other lips will I speak unto this people, and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord." ²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe: but to them that believe not. Contrariwise, prophesying serveth not for them that believe not: but for them which believe.

¹⁴ and made their lives bitter unto them with cruel labour in clay and brick, and all manner work in the fields, and in all manner of service, which they caused them to work cruelly.

⁶ Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, 'I am the LORD, and will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and will rid you out of their bondage, and will deliver you with a stretched-out arm and with great judgments.

¹³ Though ye have lain among the sheep-folds, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove that is covered with silver wings, and her feathers like gold.

⁴ For thou shalt break the yoke of the people's burden: the staff of his shoulder and the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.

²⁷ Then shall his burden be taken from thy shoulders, and his yoke from thy neck, yea the same yoke shall be corrupt for very fatness."

²⁹ Take my yoke on you, and learn of me; for I am meek, and lowly of heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

²³ And it chanced, in process of time, that the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel sighed by the reason of labour, and cried.

¹⁰ And Pharaoh drew nigh, and when the children of Israel lift up their eyes and saw how the Egyptians followed after them, they were sore afraid and cried out unto the LORD.

²⁴ And in the morning watch, the LORD looked unto the host of the Egyptians out of the fiery and cloudy pillar, and troubled their host;

³⁰ Thus the LORD delivered Israel the selfsame day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the seaside. ³¹ And when Israel saw that mighty hand which the LORD had showed upon the Egyptians, they feared the LORD: and believed both the LORD and also his servant Moses.

² And the people chode with Moses, and said, "Give us water to drink." And Moses said unto them, "Why chide ye with me, and wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?" ³ There the people thirsted for water, and murmured against Moses and said, "Wherefore hast thou brought us out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?" ⁴ And Moses cried unto the LORD saying, "What shall I do unto this people? They be almost ready to stone me!" ⁵ And the LORD said unto Moses, "Go before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel: and thy rod wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand and go. ⁶ Behold, I will stand there before thee upon a rock in Horeb: and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out thereof, that the people may drink." And Moses did even so before the elders of Israel. ⁷ And he called the name of the place: Massah-and-Meribah: because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD saying, "Is the LORD among us or not?"

¹⁹ And the voice of the horn blew and waxed louder, and louder. Moses spake, and God answered him and that with a voice.

¹⁸ And all the people saw the thunder and the lightning and the noise of the horn, and how the mountain smoked. ¹⁹ And when the people saw it, they removed and stood afar off and said unto Moses, "Talk thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God talk with us, lest we die." ²⁰ And Moses said unto the people, "Fear not, for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be among you that ye sin not." ²¹ And the people stood afar off, and Moses went into the thick cloud where God was.

¹³ This is the water of strife, because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified upon them.

²⁴ "Let Aaron be put unto his people, for he shall not come into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel: because ye disobeyed my mouth at the water of strife.

⁸ And unto Levi he said, "Thy perfectness and thy light be according unto the man of thy mercy, who thou hast tempted at Massah, when ye strove by the waters of strife.

¹⁵ And call upon me in the time of trouble; so will I hear thee, and thou shalt praise me."

¹⁴ Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him up out of all danger, for he hath known my name. ¹⁵ When he calleth upon me, I shall hear him: Yea I am with him in his trouble; whereout I will deliver him, and bring him to honour.

²⁶ and said, "If ye will hearken unto the voice of the LORD your God, and will do that which is right in his sight and will give an ear unto his commandments, and keep all his ordinances: then will I put none of these diseases upon thee which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the LORD thy surgeon."

²⁷ Go thou and hear all that the LORD our God sayeth, and tell thou unto us all that the LORD our God sayeth unto thee, and we will hear it and do it.'

⁴⁶ then he said unto them, "Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify unto you this day: that ye command them unto your children, to observe and do all the words of this law.

⁷ "Hear, O my people, and I will speak; I myself will testify against thee, O Israel; for I am God, even thy God.

¹³ O that my people would obey me! For if Israel would walk in my ways,

¹⁹ If ye will agree and hearken, ye shall eat the best of the land, saith the LORD God.

³ Incline your ears, and come unto me, take heed, and your soul shall live. For I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. ⁴ Behold, I shall give him for a witness among the folk, for a Prince and Captain unto the people.

¹¹ Verily, verily I say unto thee, we speak that we know, and testify that we have seen: And ye receive not our witness.

³² And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth: but no man receiveth his testimony. ³³ Howbeit, he that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.

²¹ witnessing both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, the repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus.

⁹ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For this is the witness of God, that God hath born of his son.

³ Thou shalt have none other gods in my sight. ⁴ "Thou shalt make thee no graven image, neither any similitude that is in heaven above, either in the earth beneath, or in the water that is beneath the earth. ⁵ See that thou neither bow thyself unto them neither serve them: for I, the LORD thy God, am a jealous God, and visit the sin of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me:

¹⁴ and see that ye walk not after strange gods, of the gods of the nations which are about you -

¹² The LORD alone was his guide — and there was no strange god with him.

²⁰ If we have forgotten the name of our God, and hold up our hands to any strange god,

¹² I gave warning, I made whole, I taught you when there was no strange god among you. And this record must ye bear me yourselves, sayeth the LORD: that I am God.

¹¹ Now hath Judah offended: yea the abomination is done in Israel and in Jerusalem, for Judah hath defiled the Sanctuary of the LORD, which he loved, and hath kept the daughter of a strange God.

⁵ And though there be that are called "gods," whether in heaven or in earth — as there be "gods" many and "lords" many - ⁶ yet unto us is there but one God, which is the father, of whom are all things, and we in him: and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

² "I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt and out of the house of bondage.

³ Put thou thy trust in the LORD, and be doing good; dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. ⁴ Delight thou in the LORD, and he shall give thee thy heart's desire.

⁹ For he satisfieth the greedy soul, and filleth the hungry soul with good.

⁴ which I commanded unto your fathers; what time as I brought them out of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Be obedient unto my voice, and do according to all that I commanded you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God,

³¹ Behold, the days come, sayeth the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: ³² not after the covenant that I made with their fathers, when I took them by the hand, and led them out of the land of Egypt: which covenant they brake, wherefore I punished them sore, sayeth the LORD: ³³ But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, sayeth the LORD: I will plant my law in the inward parts of them, and write it in their hearts, and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

³⁷ In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.

⁷ If ye abide in me, and my words also abide in you: ask what ye will, and it shall be done to you.

²³ "And in that day shall ye ask me no question. Verily, verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the father in my name, he will give it you.

¹⁹ and to know what is the love of Christ, which love passeth knowledge: that ye might be fulfilled with all manner of fullness which cometh of God. ²⁰ Unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly, above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

⁶ And he said unto me, "It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning, and the end. I will give to him that is athirst of the well of the water of life, free.

¹⁷ And the spirit and the bride said, "Come." And let him that heareth, say also "Come." And let him that is athirst come. And let whosoever will, take of the water of life free.

¹ And when the people saw that it was long or Moses came down out of the mountain, they gathered themselves together and came unto Aaron and said unto him, "Up, and make us a god to go before us: for of this Moses, the fellow that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become."

¹⁵ "And Israel waxed fat, and kicked. Thou wast fat, thick and smooth. And he let God go, that made him; and despised the rock that saved him.

¹⁸ Of the rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgot God that made thee.

¹² Then believed they in his word, and sang praise unto him. ¹³ But within a while they forgot his works, and would not abide his counsel.

³⁰ but abhorred my counsel, and despised my correction.

¹¹ whether the Gentiles themselves deal so falsely and untruly with their gods - which yet are no gods indeed! But my people hath given over their high honour, for a thing that may not help them. ¹² Be astonished, O ye heavens, be afraid, and abashed at such a thing, sayeth the LORD. ¹³ For my people hath done two evils: They have forsaken me, the well of the water of life; and digged them pits, yea, vile and broken pits, that hold no water.

²³ but this I commanded them, saying, 'Hearken and obey my voice, and I shall be your God, and ye shall be my people: so that ye walk in all the ways, which I have commanded you, that ye may prosper.' ²⁴ But they were not obedient. They inclined not their ears thereunto, but went after their own imaginations and after the motions of their own wicked heart: and so turned themselves away, and converted not unto me.

¹¹ Nevertheless, they would not take heed, but turned their backs and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

²⁹ Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be counted worthy, which treadeth underfoot the son of God: and counteth the blood of the testament as an unholy thing, wherewith he was sanctified, and doth dishonour to the spirit of grace.

³ And the LORD said, "My spirit shall not always strive with man, for they are flesh. Nevertheless I will give them yet space, a hundred and twenty years."

⁹ And the LORD said unto Moses, "Pharaoh shall not regard you, that many wonders may be wrought in the land of Egypt."

⁴ When thy sons sinned against him, did not he punish them for their wickedness?

¹ Alas, for those disobedient children," sayeth the LORD, "that will take counsel without me. Alas, that they will take a secret advice, and not out of my spirit: and therefore add they sin unto sin.

²⁴ But they were not obedient. They inclined not their ears thereunto, but went after their own imaginations and after the motions of their own wicked heart: and so turned themselves away, and converted not unto me.

¹⁶ "As for the words that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will in no wise hear them: ¹⁷ But whatsoever goeth out of our own mouth, that will we do: We will do sacrifice, and offer oblations unto the Queen of heaven: like as we and our forefathers, our kings and our heads have done in the cities of Judah, and in the streets and fields of Jerusalem. For then had we plenteousness of victuals, then were we in prosperity, and no misfortune came upon us.

⁴² Then God turned himself, and gave them up, that they should worship the stars of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, 'O ye of the house of Israel: gave ye to me sacrifices and meat offerings by the space of forty years in the wilderness?

¹⁶ the which in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

²⁴ Wherefore God, likewise, gave them up unto their hearts' lusts, unto uncleanness to defile their own bodies between themselves:

²⁶ For this cause, God gave them up unto shameful lusts. For even their women did change the natural use unto the unnatural. ²⁷ And likewise also the men left the natural use of the woman, and burnt in their lusts, one on another, among themselves. And man with man wrought filthiness: and received in themselves the reward of their error, as it was according.

⁹ even him whose coming is by the working of Satan, with all lying power, signs, and wonders: ¹⁰ and in all deceivableness of unrighteousness, among them that perish: because they received not the love of the truth, that they might have been saved. ¹¹ And therefore God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe lies:

²⁹ Oh that they had such a heart with them to fear me and keep all my commandments always, that it might go well with them and with their children forever.

¹² And now, Israel, what is it that the LORD thy God requireth of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God and to walk in all his ways and to love him and to serve the LORD thy God with all thine heart and with all thy soul, ¹³ that thou keep the commandments of the LORD and his ordinances which I command thee this day, for thy wealth?

²⁹ I would they were wise, and understood this, and would consider their latter end.'

¹⁸ If thou wilt now regard my commandment, thy wealthiness shall be as the water stream: and thy righteousness as the waves flowing in the sea.

³⁷ Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee: how often would I have gathered thy children together, as the hen gathereth her chicks under her wings? But ye would not.

⁴¹ And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept on it, ⁴² saying, "If thou hadst known those things which belong unto thy peace, even at thy time: But now are they hid from thine eyes.

⁹ But in any wise, rebel not against the LORD. Moreover fear ye not the people of the land, for they are but bread for us. Their shield is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not therefore."

⁴⁵ Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, came down and smote them and hewed them: even unto Hormah.

¹³ be sure that the LORD your God will not cast out all these nations before you. But they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges for your sides, and pricks in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.

²⁰ Wherefore the LORD was angry with Israel and said, "Because this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers and have not obeyed my voice, ²¹ therefore henceforth I will not cast out one man before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died - ²² and that to prove Israel through them whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk therein as their fathers did or not." ²³ And so the LORD left those nations alone, and drove them not out immediately, neither delivered them into the hands of Joshua.

³ He shall subdue the people under us, and the Heathen under our feet.

⁸ I will root out them that dwell at Ashdod, and him that holdeth the scepter of Ashkelon, and stretch out mine hand over Ekron, that the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,' sayeth the LORD.

⁷ "Arise, O thou sword, upon my shepherd, and upon the prince of my people, sayeth the LORD of Hosts: Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered abroad, and so will I turn mine hand to the little ones.

⁵ See that thou neither bow thyself unto them neither serve them: for I, the LORD thy God, am a jealous God, and visit the sin of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me:

¹⁰ and rewardeth them that hate him before his face so that he bringeth them to nought, and will not defer the time unto him that hateth him but will reward him before his face.

⁴⁴ As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me, but the strange children dissemble with me. {TYNDALE: And the aliens crouched unto me, and obeyed me at a word.} ⁴⁵ The strange children shall fail, and be afraid out of their prisons. {TYNDALE: And the aliens that shrink away shall tremble for fear in their defended places.}

³ For thy loving-kindness is better than life itself; my lips shall praise thee.

² For lo, thine enemies make a murmuring; and they that hate thee, lift up their head. ³ They imagine craftily against thy people, and take counsel against thy secret ones. ⁴ "Come," say they, "let us root them out, that they be no more a people, and that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance." ⁵ For they have cast their heads together with one consent, and are confederate against thee. ⁶ The tabernacles of the Edomites, and Ishmaelites, the Moabites, and the Hagrites. ⁷ Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek: the Philistines with them that dwell at Tyre. ⁸ Assyria also is joined unto them, and have holpen the children of Lot. Selah. ⁹ But do thou to them as unto the Midianites, unto Sisera, and unto Jabin by the brook of Kishon, ¹⁰ who perished at Endor, and became as the dung of the earth. ¹¹ Make their princes like Oreb and Zeeb. Yea, make all their princes like as Zebah and Zalmunna, ¹² who say, "We will have the houses of God in possession." ¹³ O my God, make them like unto a wheel, and as the stubble before the wind. ¹⁴ Like as a fire that burneth up the wood, and as the flame that consumeth the mountains. ¹⁵ Persecute them even so with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm. ¹⁶ Make their faces ashamed, O LORD, that they may seek thy name. ¹⁷ Let them be confounded and vexed ever more and more; let them be put to shame and perish. ¹⁸ And they shall know that thou, whose name is Jehovah, art only the most highest over all the earth.

²⁸ The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall prosper in thy sight.

²² They shall not build, and another possess; they shall not plant, and another eat. But the life of my people shall be like a tree, and so shall the work of their hands.

²⁰ And Judah shall continue ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

²² If I had not come and spoken unto them, they should not have had sin: but now have they nothing to cloak their sin withal. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my father.

³⁰ backbiters, haters of God, doers of wrong, proud, boasters, bringers-up of evil things, disobedient to fathers and mothers,

⁷ because that the fleshly mind is enmity against God: For it is not obedient to the law of God, neither can be.

¹³ He set him up upon a high land, and he ate the increase of the fields. And he gave him honey to suck out of the rock, and oil out of the hard stone. ¹⁴ With butter of the kine and milk of the sheep, with fat of the lambs, and fat rams and he-goats, with fat kidneys and with wheat. And of the blood of grapes, thou drunkest wine.

⁸ And within a short space after, as he went thither again to take her to wife, he turned out of the way, to see the carcass of the Lion. And behold, there was a swarm of bees in the carcass of the Lion and honey. ⁹ And he took of the honey in his hands and went eating, and came to his father and mother, and gave them also. And they did eat. But he told them not, that he had taken the honey out of the carcass of the Lion.

¹⁸ And the men of the city said unto him the seventh day before the sun went down, "What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a Lion?" Then said he unto them, "If ye had not ploughed with my calf, ye had not found out my riddle."

²⁵ And all the land came to a wood where honey lay upon the ground. ²⁶ And when the people were come into the wood: Behold, the honey dropped. Howbeit, there was no man that moved his hand to his mouth, because that the people feared the curse.

⁶ When my ways ran over with butter, and when the stony rocks gave me rivers of oil;

¹⁴ He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the flour of wheat.

²⁴ And the barns shall be full of corn, and the wine presses flow with wine and oil.
