¹ On the eighth day Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the senate of Israel, ² and Moses said to Aaron, Take for thyself a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a whole burnt offering, both without blemish [Now he had brought them before the Lord] ³ and speak to the senate of Israel saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb of the first year for an homage offering, all without blemish, ⁴ and a young bull and a ram for a sacrifice of thanksgiving before the Lord, and fine flour tempered with oil; for to-day the Lord will appear among you. ⁵ And when they had brought them, as Moses commanded, over against the tabernacle of the testimony, and all the congregation were come, and stood before the Lord, ⁶ Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded; do it, and the glory of the Lord will appear among you. ⁷ Then Moses said to Aaron, Go near to the altar, and offer thy own sin offering, and thy own burnt offering, and make atonement for thyself and thy house, then offer the gifts of the people, and make atonement for them, as the Lord commanded Moses. ⁸ Accordingly Aaron went near to the altar, and slew the calf for his own sin offering, and the ⁹ sons of Aaron brought the blood to him, and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and having poured out the blood on the base of the altar, ¹⁰ he carried up the suet, and the kidneys, and the lobe of the liver, of the sin offering, upon the altar as the Lord commanded Moses, ¹¹ and the flesh and the skin he caused to be burned with fire without the camp. ¹² Then he slew the whole burnt offering, and the sons of Aaron brought him the blood, and he poured it out against the altar round about. ¹³ Then they presented the whole burnt offering by pieces, and these and the head he laid on the altar. ¹⁴ He then washed the belly and the feet with water, and laid them on the whole burnt offering on the altar. ¹⁵ Then he brought forward the gift of the people, and he took the goat for the sin offering of the people, and slew it, and purified it as he had done the first. ¹⁶ He then brought forward the whole burnt offering, and did with it in the manner prescribed. ¹⁷ Then, presenting the sacrifice of flour, he filled his hands with some of it, and laid the handful on the altar apart from the morning whole burnt offering. ¹⁸ Then he slew the young bull and the ram for the people's sacrifice of thanksgiving; and the sons of Aaron brought him the blood; and he poured it out against the altar round about. ¹⁹ And the suet of the bull and that of the ram with the loin and the caul which covereth the belly, and the two kidneys with the suet on them, and the lobe of the liver; ²⁰ the several parcels of suet he laid on the breast, and having carried up the suet upon the altar, ²¹ Aaron took away the breast and the right shoulder as a portion set apart before the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses. ²² Then Aaron, lifting up his hands over the people, blessed them; When he came down from offering the sin offering, and the whole burnt offerings, and the offerings of thanksgiving, ²³ and Moses and Aaron had gone into the tabernacle of the testimony, and come out and blessed all the people, then the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people, ²⁴ and there came forth a fire from the Lord which consumed what were on the altar, both the whole burnt offerings and the parcels of suet. And when all the people saw this, they were struck with consternation and fell on their faces;

¹ then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, ² Let the children of Israel encamp close to one another, by divisions, by standards, by the houses of their families, facing the tabernacle of the testimony. All around it the Israelites shall encamp. ³ And they who encamp first, towards the east, shall be the division of the camp of Judas with their army; and the chief of the children of Judas shall be Naasson, son of Aminadab; ⁴ his army; even they who were reviewed, being seventy four thousand six hundred; ⁵ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Issachar, and the chief of the Issacharites shall be Nathaniel, son of Sogar; ⁶ his army; even they who were reviewed, being fifty four thousand four hundred; ⁷ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Zabulon, and the chief of the Zabulonites shall be Eliab, son of Chailon; ⁸ his army; even they who were reviewed, being fifty seven thousand four hundred; ⁹ all those of the camp of Judas who have been reviewed, amounting to one hundred and eighty six thousand four hundred, with their army, shall march in the van. ¹⁰ And their army on the south, shall be the divisions of the camp of Reuben, and the chief of the Reubenites shall be Elisar, son of Sedur; ¹¹ his army, even they who have been reviewed, being forty six thousand five hundred; ¹² and they who encamp adjoining him, shall be the division of the tribe of Symeon, and the chief of the Symeonites shall be Salamiel, son of Surisadai; ¹³ his army, even they who were reviewed, being fifty nine thousand three hundred; ¹⁴ and they who encamp adjoining shall be the tribe of Gad; and the chief of the Gadites, shall be Elisaph, son of Raguel; ¹⁵ his army, even they who were reviewed, being forty five thousand six hundred and fifty. ¹⁶ All those of the camp of Reuben who have been reviewed, amounting to one hundred and fifty one thousand four hundred and fifty, with their army, shall march as the second division. ¹⁷ Then shall move the tabernacle of the testimony, and the camp of the Levites, as the centre division of the camps. As they encamp so they shall take up their march, every man in his rank, according to their companies. ¹⁸ And on the west shall be the division of the camp of Ephraim, with their army; and the chief of the Ephraimites shall be Elisama, son of Emiud; ¹⁹ his army, even they who were reviewed, being forty thousand five hundred; ²⁰ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Manasses, and the chief of the Manassites shall be Gamaliel, son of Phadassur; ²¹ his army, even they who were reviewed, being thirty two thousand two hundred; ²² and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Benjamin; and the chief of the Benjaminites shall be Abidon, son of Gadeoni; ²³ his army, even they who were reviewed, being thirty five thou 24 sand four hundred. ²⁴ All those of the camp of Ephraim who have been reviewed, amounting to one hundred and eight thousand one hundred, with their army, shall march as the third division. ²⁵ And on the north shall be the division of the camp of Dan; with their army; and the chief of the Danites shall be Achiezer, son of Amisadai; ²⁶ his army, even they who were reviewed, being sixty two thousand seven hundred; ²⁷ and they who encamp adjoining him, shall be the tribe of Aser; and the chief of the Aserites, shall be Phagiel, son of Echran; ²⁸ his army, even they who have been reviewed, being forty one thousand five hundred: ²⁹ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Nephthaleim, and the chief of the Nephthaleimites shall be Achire, son of Ainan; ³⁰ his army, even they who were reviewed, being fifty three thousand four hundred. ³¹ All those of the camp of Dan, who have been reviewed, amounting to one hundred and fifty seven thousand six hundred, shall march as the rear division. ³² This is the review of the children of Israel according to the houses of their families; the whole muster of the camps, comprehending their armies, being six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty. ³³ But the Levites were not reviewed among them, as the Lord commanded Moses. ³⁴ And the children of Israel did all that the Lord commanded Moses. So they encamped according to their divisions, and so they set out on their march, every one in his rank, according to their communities, and according to the houses of their families.

¹ therefore the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ² Make for thyself two silver trumpets. Thou shalt make them of ductile silver, each beaten out of one piece. And they shall serve thee to assemble the congregation, and to cause the camps to remove. ³ When thou shalt blow with them, all the congregation shall assemble at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony; ⁴ but when one is blown, all the chiefs, the leaders of Israel, shall come to thee. ⁵ When you blow an alarm, the camps on the east shall begin their march; ⁶ and when you blow a second alarm, the camps on the south shall begin their march; and when you blow a third alarm, the camps on the west shall begin their march; and when you blow a fourth alarm, the camps on the north shall begin their march. They shall blow an alarm for their marching. ⁷ And when you would assemble the congregation, you are to blow with them, but not an alarm. ⁸ The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be a perpetual ordinance for you, throughout your generations. ⁹ And when you go out to battle in your land, against your enemies, who have risen up against you, you shall sound these trumpets, that you may be brought into remembrance before the Lord, and saved from your enemies. ¹⁰ In the days of your rejoicings also, and at your festivals, and at your new moons, you shall blow the trumpets, at your whole burnt offerings, and at your sacrifices of thanksgivings; and it shall be a calling of you into remembrance before the Lord; I the Lord your God. ¹¹ Now in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud ascended from the tabernacle of the testimony; ¹² whereupon the Israelites with their baggage, marched through the wilderness of Sina, and the cloud halted in the wilderness of Pharan. ¹³ When the first had begun their march; when the van, ¹⁴ the division of the camp of Judas, had marched, and at the head of it Naasson son of Aminadab, ¹⁵ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Issachar, Nathaniel son of Sogar, ¹⁶ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Zabulon, Eliab son of Chailon; then were the Gersonites, and the Merarites, ¹⁷ having taken down the tabernacle, to move on; carrying the tabernacle. ¹⁸ And when the division of the camp of Reuben had marched with their army, and at the head of it Elisur son of Sedur; ¹⁹ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Symeon, Salamiel son of Surisadai; ²⁰ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Gad, Elisaph son of Raguel, ²¹ then were the Kaathites to move on, carrying the holy things, so that the tabernacle might be set up when they arrived. ²² Then were to march the division of the camp of Ephraim, with their army, and at the head of it Elisama son of Emiud; ²³ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Manasses, Gamaliel son of Phadassur; ²⁴ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Benjamin, Abidan son of Gadeoni. ²⁵ And the division of the camp of Dan were to march the last of all the camps, with their army, and at the head of it Achiezer son of Amisadai; ²⁶ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Aser, Phagael son of Echran; ²⁷ and at the head of the army of the tribe of Nephthaleim, Achire son of Ainan. ²⁸ These were the armies of the Israelites. ²⁹ Now when they began their march Moses said to Obad, son of Raguel the Madianite, the brother in law of Moses, We are now on our march to the place which the Lord said, This I will give you. Come with us and we will deal well with thee; for the Lord hath spoken good things concerning Israel. ³⁰ In reply to which he said, I cannot go, but must return to my own land, and to my family. ³¹ Whereupon Moses said, Thou must not leave us. Because thou hast been with us in the wilderness, therefore thou shalt be a senator among us, ³² and shalt share; if thou go with us, thou shalt indeed share in all those good things which the Lord will bestow upon us, and we will deal kindly with thee. ³³ So they removed from the mount of the Lord, three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them the three days' journey, to look out for them a resting place. ³⁴ Now while the cloud was overshadowing them by day, as they marched out of the camp, ³⁵ And when the ark set forward Moses said, Arise, O Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered. Let them who hate thee be put to flight. ³⁶ And when it halted he said, Return, Lord, to the thousand myriads of Israel.

⁶ Thereupon the chiefs of families, and the chiefs of the sons of Israel, and the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, and the overseers of the king's works and his builders, were liberally disposed, ⁷ and gave for the works of the house of the Lord five thousand talents and ten thousand pieces of gold, and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron. ⁸ And they who had precious stones gave them for the treasures of the house of the Lord which were under the care of Jeiel the Gersonite.

⁸ His chiefs also made dedications for the people, and for the priests, and for the Levites. And Chelkias and Zacharias, and Jeiel, the chiefs, gave for the priests of the house of God; they gave for the passover two thousand six hundred sheep, lambs and kids, and three hundred beeves,

⁶⁸ Now some of the chiefs of families when they came to the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, offered free will offerings for the house of God, to raise it on its foundations. ⁶⁹ According: to their ability they contributed to the treasure for the work, sixty one thousand mnas of pure gold, and five thousand mnas of silver, and a hundred garments for the priests.

⁷⁰ As some of the heads of the families had given for the work; to Nehemias, for the treasury, a thousand pieces of gold, fifty cups, and thirty vestures for the priests; ⁷¹ the other heads of the families gave for the treasures of the work, twenty thousand pieces of gold, and two thousand three hundred mnas of silver; ⁷² and the rest of the people gave twenty thousand pieces of gold, and two thousand two hundred mnas of silver, and sixty seven vestures for the priests.

¹ And the Lord spake to Moses saying, ² Say to the children of Israel, Take offerings from all who may be willing. And these you shall take as dedications to me. ³ And this is the offering which you shall receive from them; gold and silver and brass, ⁴ and blue and purple and scarlet yarn, and cotton thread, and goats' hair, ⁵ and rams' skins dyed red, and skins of a violet colour, and incorruptible wood, ⁶ and oil for giving light, and spices for the anointing oil and for the compound incense, ⁷ and sardine stones, and stones to be engraved for the ephod and the robe which cometh down to the feet. ⁸ And thou shalt make a sanctuary for me and I will appear among you. ⁹ And thou shalt make every thing for me according to what I show thee on this mount; according to the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its utensils, so shalt thou make them. ¹⁰ Thou shalt make the Ark of the testimony of incorruptible wood; two cubits and a half, the length, and a cubit and a half, the breadth, and a cubit and a half, the height. ¹¹ And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold. Within and without thou shalt overlay it. And thou shalt make for it a rim of gold welked and waved around.

⁴ Again Moses spoke to all the congregation of the Israelites and said, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded saying, ⁵ Take from yourselves an offering for the Lord. Let every one whose heart is so disposed bring these offerings to the Lord, gold, silver, brass, ⁶ blue, purple and scarlet yarn doubled; and cotton thread and goats' hair ⁷ and rams' skins dyed red and skins dyed blue and incorruptible wood ⁸ and sardine stones and stones to be engraved for the ephod and the long robe; ⁹ and let every wise hearted man among you come and make all the works which the Lord hath commanded; ¹⁰ the tabernacle, and the coverings, and upper coverings and the hangings, and the bars and the pilasters,

² I said to the Lord, Thou art my Lord: thou hast no need of my goods. ³ By the hallowed things in this land of his he had marvellously displayed all his designs.

¹ [J] JACOB is my servant, I will uphold him, Israel is my chosen one, my soul hath embraced him; I have put my spirit upon him; he will publish judgment to the nations. [[J] Jehovah, [p] the prophet] ² He will not scream, nor urge with vehemence: nor will his voice be heard abroad in the streets. ³ A bruised reed he will not break, nor extinguish a dimly burning taper; but will publish judgment to establish truth. ⁴ He will shine out, and shall not be broken until he hath established judgment on the earth. In his name therefore let the nations trust. ⁵ Thus saith the Lord, the God who made the heaven and fixed it; who established the earth and the things therein and who giveth vital air to the people on it, and breath to them who tread thereon; ⁶ I the Lord God have called thee for saving mercy, and I will take hold of thy hand and strengthen thee; for I have given thee for the covenant of a race; for the light of nations: ⁷ to open the eyes of the blind; to lead out from chains them who are bound, and out of prison, them who are sitting in darkness.

¹ [M] Hearken to me, isles; and ye nations attend! [After a long time one will stand up saith the Lord.] From my mother's womb he mentioned my name [[M] The Messiah] ² and made my mouth like a sharp sword and hid me under the cover of his hand. He made me like a chosen shaft, and in his quiver kept me concealed, ³ and said to me, "Thou Israel art my servant, and by thee I shall be glorified." ⁴ Whereupon I said, "I have laboured in vain; for vanity and for nought I have spent my strength; therefore my cause is with the Lord; and my labour is before my God." ⁵ And now thus saith the Lord who formed me from the womb. To be his servant to gather Jacob to him, and Israel. I shall be gathered and glorified before the Lord. And my God will be my strength. ⁶ Moreover he said to me, Is it a great thing for thee to be called my servant to reestablish the tribes of Jacob and bring back the dispersion of Israel? Behold I have given thee for the covenant of a race; for the light of nations; that thou mayst be for salvation to the farthest part of the earth. ⁷ Thus saith the Lord who delivered thee; the God of Israel, "Hallow him who despised his life, him who was abhorred by the nations, the slaves of the Arehons. Kings shall see him and chiefs shall rise up and they shall worship him for the sake of the Lord; because the Holy One of Israel is faithful, therefore I have chosen thee. ⁸ Thus saith the Lord, "In an acceptable time I have hearkened to thee, and in a day of salvation helped thee; and have formed thee and given thee for the covenant of nations that thou mayst reduce the earth to order and possess desolate heritages,

¹¹ and he hath given some to be apostles, and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some pastors, and teachers, ¹² for the fitting up of the saints; for the work of distribution; for the building up of the body of the Christ, ¹³ until we all come up to the unity of the belief and of the knowledge of the son of God; to perfect manhood to a measure of the stature of the fulness of the Christ;

⁸ This is a faithful word; and in respect to these things I charge thee to exert thy utmost influence in order that they who believe in God, may study to be foremost in good works. These are the things which are comely, and profitable for men.

²⁵ And the charge of the Gersonites in the tabernacle of the testimony, was the tabernacle and the covering; and the curtain of the door of the tabernacle of the testimony; ²⁶ and the hangings of the court; and the curtain of the gate, of the court around the tabernacle; and the rest of the works thereof.

²⁴ The service of the community of the Gersonites is the same, namely to serve and to carry. ²⁵ They shall carry the skin coverings of the tabernacle of the testimony with its covering, the upper covering of blue which is upon it, and the curtain of the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, ²⁶ and the hangings of the court, both all that are for the tabernacle of the testimony, and those about it, and all the sacred implements which are used in the holy service. ²⁷ They shall act under the direction of Aaron and his sons, whatever may be the service of the Gersonites, in all their services, and in all their works. So thou shalt review them by name, having respect to all the burdens to be carried by them. ²⁸ This is the service of the Gersonites in the tabernacle of the testimony, and the superintendance of them shall be by the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

³⁶ and the review of the watch of the Merarites, had the charge of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the bases thereof, with all their appurtenances and works, ³⁷ and the pillars of the court round about, with their stakes and their cords .

²⁸ This is the service of the Gersonites in the tabernacle of the testimony, and the superintendance of them shall be by the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest. ²⁹ With regard to the Merarites, review them according to their communities, according to the houses of their families; ³⁰ review them from twenty five years, and upwards, to fifty years of age; every one who goeth in to do the works of the tabernacle of the testimony, ³¹ to take charge of those things to be carried by them, according to all their works for the tabernacle of the testimony, namely the capitals of the tabernacle, and the bars, and the pillars thereof, the bases thereof, and the bases and pillars for the veil, and for the curtain of the door of the tabernacle, ³² and the pillars of the court round about, with their bases, and the pillars for the curtain of the gate of the court, with their bases, and their pins, and their cords, and all the implements thereof, and all their services; review them by name, and all the implements which are to be under their charge, and to be carried by them. ³³ This service of the community of the Merarites, in all their works, for the tabernacle of the testimony, shall be under the superintendance of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

³¹ and their charge was the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the utensils of the sanctuary which were used in the priest's office; and the veil, and all the works thereof.

⁴ Now these are the services of the Kaathites in the tabernacle of the testimony, a most sacred service. ⁵ When the camp is about to remove, Aaron shall go in with his sons, and they shall take down the covering veil, and with it cover the ark of the testimony, ⁶ and put thereon the covering of blue skins; and over it they shall spread a mantle, wholly blue, and put in the staves. ⁷ Then over the presence table they shall spread a mantle, all of purple; upon it, and upon the platters, and the censers, and the goblets, and the libation cups, with which he maketh libations; and the loaves which are continually thereon shall be upon it. ⁸ And they shall throw over it a scarlet mantle, and cover it, with a blue skin covering, and put in the staves to carry it. ⁹ Then they shall take a blue mantle, and cover the candlestick which giveth light with its lamps, and its snuffers, and its tweezers, and all the oil vessels, which they use in that service; ¹⁰ and they shall put it, and all the utensils thereof, into a blue skin covering, and lay it on the staves to carry it. ¹¹ They shall then cover the golden altar with a blue mantle, and spread over it a skin covering of blue, and put in the staves thereof to carry it. ¹² And they shall take all the utensils used in the service, all with which they minister in the holies, and put them into a blue mantle, and cover them with a skin covering of blue, and lay them on staves to carry them. ¹³ Then they shall put the cover on the altar, and cover it with a mantle, entirely of purple, ¹⁴ and they shall lay thereon all the utensils with which they minister at it, namely the censers, and the flesh forks, and the cups, and the cover, and the vials, and all the utensils of the altar; and they shall throw over it a skin covering of blue, and put in the staves to carry it. Then they shall take a purple mantle, and cover the laver and its base; and put it in a skin covering of blue, and put it on the staves. ¹⁵ And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy things, and all the utensils, while the camp is removing, after this the sons of Kaath shall come in to carry them; but they shall not touch the holy things lest they die. These things the sons of Kaath shall take up in the tabernacle of the testimony. ¹⁶ The overseer, Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, shall have the charge of the oil for light, and of the compound incense, and the daily sacrifice, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of the whole tabernacle, and all that are in it, in the sanctuary, in all the works thereof.

⁶ But when they came to the threshing floor of Nachor, Oza stretched forth his hand upon the ark of God to stay it, and took hold of it, because the young bull shook it.

¹³ Now there were with him seven choirs carrying the ark, and for a sacrifice a young bull and lambs.

³ So when David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring the ark of the Lord to the place which he had prepared for it,

¹³ for because you did not do this on the former occasion, our God made a breach among us, because we did not seek him with judgment.

²⁶ So the Levites not having to carry the tabernacle and all the utensils thereof for its service;

¹ Now on the day when Moses finished the rearing up of the tabernacle, he anointed it, and hallowed it, and all the implements thereof; and the altar, and all its utensils; and when he had anointed them, and hallowed them,

⁵ Then the scribes shall speak to the people, and say, If there be any man who hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it, let him go, and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.

⁶³ And king Solomon offered for the sacrifices of thanksgiving which he offered to the Lord, twenty two thousand beeves, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. And when the king and all the sons of Israel dedicated the house,

⁵ Then king Solomon offered as a thank offering twenty two thousand beeves and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. Now when the king and all the people dedicated the house,

⁹ And on the eighth day he made a finishing feast, for he had celebrated the dedication of the altar with a festival of seven days.

¹⁶ the children of Israel, the priests and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of the house of God with joy, ¹⁷ and offered for the dedication of the house of God, a hundred young bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and twelve he goats, for a sin offering, for all Israel, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.

²⁷ at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites in all their places to bring them to Jerusalem, to make the dedication with joyful thanksgivings and with songs, accompanied with cymbals and psalteries and kinyras;

⁴³ And on that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced. Because God had given them great joy, therefore their wives and their children rejoiced, and the joy of Jerusalem was heard at a great distance.

¹ For the conclusion. The Psalm of an Ode at the dedication of David's house. I Will extol thee, Lord, because thou hast upheld me, and hast not suffered mine enemies to rejoice over me.

³³ For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace, As in all the congregations of the saints

⁴⁰ Let all things be done in a becoming and orderly manner.

⁵ for though I am absent in person, yet in spirit I am present with you, rejoicing and beholding the regularity of your conduct and the stedfastness of your belief in Christ.

⁸ Judas! Let thy brethren praise thee: Thy hands will be on the back of thy enemies. The sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.

¹⁰ A chief shall not fail from Judas. Nor a leader from his loins; Till the things reserved for him shall come; Even He, the expectation of nations.

⁷ of the children of Judas, Naasson, son of Aminadab;

³ And they who encamp first, towards the east, shall be the division of the camp of Judas with their army; and the chief of the children of Judas shall be Naasson, son of Aminadab;

¹⁴ the division of the camp of Judas, had marched, and at the head of it Naasson son of Aminadab,

²⁰ and Aminadab, Naasson; and Naasson, Salmon;

⁴ and Aram begat Aminadab, and Aminadab begat Naasson, and Naasson begat Salmon,

³² son of Jessai, son of Obed, son of Boaz, son of Salmon, son of Naasson,

²⁹ And thou shalt make its plates and its incense vessels and its libation vessels and the cups with which thou shalt pour out libations, all of pure gold.

¹³ And this is what every one who passeth review shall give, the half of a didrachm, which is according to the holy didrachm, twenty oboli making a didrachm. And this half of a didrachm shall be an offering to the Lord.

¹⁶ And the curtain of the gate of the court was a work of tapestry of blue and purple and scarlet yarn and cotton thread, twenty cubits long and the height and breadth, five cubits, answering the hangings of the court,

¹ And when any person shall bring a sacrificial gift to the Lord, his gift shall be fine flour, and he shall pour oil on it and lay frankincense on it.

³ of a male from twenty to sixty years of age, the price shall be fifty didrachms of silver, sanctuary weight;

²⁵ Now every valuation shall be by holy weight, twenty oboli making a didrachm.

⁴⁷ thou shalt take from the first born of the children of Israel, five shekels a poll. According to the holy didrachm, thou shall receive twenty oboli for a shekel.

⁴³ and the ten mechonoths, with the ten large pots for the mechonoths;

⁴⁵ and the kettles, and the cauldrons, and the bowls, and all the utensils which he made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord. Now the pillars for the house of the king, and for the house of the Lord, were in all forty eight. All these works of the king, Chiram made entirely of brass.

¹⁴ And the marshal took the kettles and the goblets, and the dishes and the censers, and all the utensils of brass with which the priests ministered, ¹⁵ together with the fire pans and the cups of gold and silver.

⁹ and this was the number of them; thirty goblets of gold, and a thousand goblets of silver, vessels of an unusual form twenty nine, ¹⁰ golden cups, thirty; and silver plated cups, four hundred and ten, and other vessels, a thousand.

²⁵ and I weighed out to them the silver and the gold, and the vessels which were dedicated to the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors, and his chiefs, and all the Israelites there, had dedicated;

¹⁹ and the Apphoths and the Masmaroths and the oil vessels and the candlesticks and the censers and the cups: those which were of gold, or gilded, and those which were of silver, or plated, the chief cook took.

² And as he was drinking, Baltasar gave an order upon tasting the wine, to bring the vessels of gold and silver which Nabuchodonosar his father had brought out of the temple at Jerusalem; and that the king and his nobles, and his concubines and his wives should drink out of them.

²⁰ In that day there shall be on the bridle of the horse, "Holy to the Lord Almighty." And the kettles in the house of the Lord shall be like the bowls before the altar.

⁸ And she at the instigation of her mother, said, Give me here in a basin the head of John the Baptist.

¹¹ And his head was brought in a basin and given to the damsel, who carried it to her mother.

⁷ And Aaron shall burn thereon every morning compound incense beaten fine. When he replenisheth the lamps he shall burn incense thereon. ⁸ And when Aaron lighteth the lamps in the evening he shall burn incense thereon every day continually before the Lord throughout their generations.

³⁴ Moreover the Lord said to Moses, Take thee spices; stacte, onycha and sweet scented chalbanum and pellucid frankincense, of each an equal quantity. ³⁵ And of these they shall make compound incense mixed up by the art of an apothecary, a pure holy composition. ³⁶ And thou shalt beat some of it fine, and lay it over against the testimonies in the tabernacle of the testimony, where I shall make myself known to thee. It shall be to you a most holy incense. ³⁷ According to the composition thereof you shall not make any for yourselves. You shall consider it as a holy thing appropriate to the Lord. ³⁸ Whoever shall make any like it to yield a fragrance for himself shall be rooted out from among his people.

⁸ and sardine stones and stones to be engraved for the ephod and the long robe;

⁷ Then over the presence table they shall spread a mantle, all of purple; upon it, and upon the platters, and the censers, and the goblets, and the libation cups, with which he maketh libations; and the loaves which are continually thereon shall be upon it.

⁵⁰ and the doors with the nails, and the cups, and the dishes, and the censers, which were of gold and embossed, and the leaves of the doors of the inner house; the holy of holies, and the doors of the temple which were overlaid with gold.

²² And with regard to the inner doors of the house into the Holy of Holies; these doors of the house of the temple he covered with gold.

¹⁴ And when they had finished, they brought the remainder of the money, to the king and Jodae. And when they had made utensils for the house of the Lord, implements used in the service of burnt offerings, and censers of gold and silver, they offered whole burnt offerings in the house of the Lord continually, all the days of Jodae.

¹ Then the Lord called up Moses and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of the testimony saying, ² Speak to the children of Israel and thou shalt say to them, When any man among you bringeth gifts to the Lord from your cattle, you shall bring them either from the flocks or the herds. ³ If his gift be a whole burnt offering from the herd, he shall bring a male without blemish to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony. He shall bring it before the Lord for acceptance; ⁴ and he shall lay his hand on the head of the homage offering to be accepted for him; to make atonement for him. ⁵ And they shall kill the young bull before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall carry the blood and pour it out round about on the altar which is at the doors of the tabernacle of the testimony; ⁶ and having flayed the whole burnt offering they shall cut it in quarters; ⁷ and the sons of Aaron the priests shall put the fire on the altar and pile wood on the fire; ⁸ and the sons of Aaron the priests shall lay the quarters with the head and the suet on the wood which is on the fire on the altar; ⁹ and they shall wash the entrails and the feet with water, and the priests shall lay them all on the altar. It is an homage gift, a sacrifice, a smell of fragrance for the Lord. ¹⁰ And if his gift to the Lord be from the flocks, either from the lambs or the kids for a whole burnt offering, he shall bring a male without blemish ¹¹ and he shall lay his hands on its head; and they shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the Lord: and the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall pour the blood on the altar round about; ¹² then they shall cut it in quarters and the priests shall lay these with the head and the suet on the wood which is on the fire on the altar; ¹³ and they shall wash the entrails and the feet with water; and the priests shall carry them all up and lay them on the altar. It is an homage offering, a sacrifice, a smell of fragrance for the Lord. ¹⁴ And if he bring an homage offering from among the fowls as his gift to the Lord; he shall bring his gift either from among the turtle doves or the pigeons; ¹⁵ and the priest shall carry it to the altar and wring off the head, and the priest shall lay it on the altar; then he shall squeeze out the blood against the base of the altar; ¹⁶ and he shall take away the craw with the feathers and throw it on the east side of the altar into the ash hole, ¹⁷ then he shall break it off from the wings but shall not divide it; and the priest shall lay it on the altar, on the wood which is upon the fire. It is an homage offering, a sacrifice, a smell of fragrance for the Lord.

¹ While Israel abode at Sattin, the people profaned themselves to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab, ² who invited them to the sacrifices of their idols; and the people ate of their sacrifices, and worshipped their idols, ³ and Israel consecrated himself to Belphegor. Whereupon the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel; ⁴ and the Lord said to Moses, Take all those leaders of the people and make a public example of them, for the Lord, in the face of the sun; so shall the wrath of the Lord be turned away from Israel. ⁵ Then Moses said to the tribes of Israel, Kill ye, every one, him of his family, who hath consecrated himself to Belphegor. ⁶ And behold there came a man of the children of Israel, who conducted his brother to a Madianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and before all the congregation of the sons of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony. ⁷ Upon seeing this, Phineas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, started up from among the congregation, and taking a javelin in his hand, ⁸ went after the man; the Israelite, into the bed chamber, and ran them both through, the man, the Israelite, quite through, and the woman into her belly. Whereupon the plague stopped from the children of Israel. ⁹ Now they who had died of the plague were twenty four thousand. ¹⁰ And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, ¹¹ Phineas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, hath stayed my wrath from Israel, by shewing a zeal for me among them, so that in my jealousy I have not utterly consumed the children of Israel. ¹² Therefore say, Behold I give him the covenant of peace. ¹³ It shall be to him, and to his seed after him, an everlasting covenant of the priests' office, because he shewed a zeal for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel. ¹⁴ Now the name of the man; the Israelite, who was slain with the Madianitish woman, was Zambri, son of Salmon, the chief of the patriarchal house of the Symeonites; ¹⁵ and the name of the Madianitish woman, who was slain, was Chasbi, a daughter of Sour, the chief of the clan of Ommath, which is the head family of Madiam. Num 25:l6 Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

¹⁷ Speak to the children of Israel, and say, Treat as enemies the Madianites, and smite them, ¹⁸ for they are acting as enemies against you, with craftiness, in all their attempts to beguile you by means of Phogor, and by means of Chasbi, the daughter of a prince of Madiam, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague, on account of Phogor.

¹ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ² Give a charge to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, You shall observe to bring me my gifts, my oblations, my homage offerings for a smell of fragrance at my festivals. ³ Moreover thou shalt say to them, These are the homage offerings which you shall present to the Lord; two lambs, of the first year, with 4 out blemish, every day, for a continual whole burnt offering; ⁴ the one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning, and the other in the evening; ⁵ and for a sacrifice of flour, thou shalt offer the tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed up with the quarter of an hin of oil. ⁶ It is the continual whole burnt offering, which was instituted at mount Sina, for a smell of fragrance for the Lord: ⁷ and for the libation thereof, thou shalt offer, with the first lamb, a quarter of an hin of wine. In the holy place thou shalt pour out as a libation the choicest wine to the Lord. ⁸ And towards evening thou shalt offer the other lamb, with the like sacrifice, and the like libation; for a smell of fragrance for the Lord. ⁹ And on the day of the sabbaths, you shall bring two lambs of the first year, without blemish, and two tenths of fine flour mixed up with oil, for a sacrifice, together with a libation, ¹⁰ as the sabbath whole burnt offering, for every sabbath, over and above the continual whole burnt offering with its libation. ¹¹ And at the new moons you shall offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord, two young bulls from the herd, one ram, seven lambs, of the first year, without blemish, ¹² three tenths of fine flour, mixed up with oil, for each bull, and two tenths of fine flour, mixed up with oil, for the ram, ¹³ and a tenth of fine flour, mixed up with oil, for every lamb, as a sacrifice for a smell of fragrance; an homage offering for the Lord: ¹⁴ and their libation shall be, the half of an hin of wine for each bull; and the third of an hin for the ram; and the fourth of an hin for every lamb. This shall be the whole burnt offering, month after month, for all the months of the year; ¹⁵ Also a kid of the goats, for a sin offering. This, with its libation, shall be offered to the Lord, over and above the continual whole burnt offering. ¹⁶ And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, shall be the passover to the Lord, ¹⁷ and on the fifteenth day of the month shall commence the festival thereof. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. ¹⁸ Now, this first day shall be solemnly set apart for you. You shall not do any kind of sacrificial service; ¹⁹ but you shall bring for whole burnt offerings; for an offering of homage to the Lord, two young bulls from the herd, one ram, seven lambs of the first year. You must see that they are without blemish. ²⁰ And their sacrifice shall be fine flour, mixed up with oil, three tenths for each bull, and two tent! is for the ram, ²¹ and thou shalt prepare a tenth for every one of the seven lambs; ²² and a kid of the goats for a sin offering, to make atonement for you; ²³ over and above the whole burnt offering which is to be made every morning, and which is a continual whole burnt offering. ²⁴ After this manner you shall make daily offerings, during the seven days, as a gift; an offering of homage, for a smell of fragrance, to the Lord: Over and above the continual whole burnt offering, thou shalt offer it with its libation. ²⁵ And the seventh of these days shall be solemnly set apart for you. On it you shall do no sacrificial work. ²⁶ And on the day of new things when you bring for the Lord the new sacrifice of the weeks, there shall be a solemn festival for you. You shall not do any kind of sacrificial service; ²⁷ but you shall bring, as whole burnt offerings, for a smell of fragrance to the Lord, two young bulls from the herd, one ram, seven lambs, of the first year, without blemish, ²⁸ with their sacrifice of fine flour mixed up with oil; three tenths for each bull, and two tenths for the ram, ²⁹ and one tenth for every of the seven lambs;

⁴ This man beareth away our sins; and for us he is in sorrow: And we considered him as being in trouble and under a stroke and in affliction.

¹⁰ and the Lord determined to purify him from this stroke: when his soul shall be given up for a sin offering; of you he shall see a seed which shall prolong their days. ¹¹ More over it is the determination of the Lord to remove him from the trouble of his soul; to shew him light and fashion him for knowledge; to justify the Righteous One who is serving many well, when he shall bear away their sins;

²⁸ even as the son of man came not to be waited on, but to wait, and to give his life a ransom for many.

¹⁹ And for them I consecrate myself, that they may be consecrated for truth.

²⁴ They are justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is by Christ Jesus, ²⁵ whom God heretofore exhibited as a mercy seat by faith in his blood, that, on account of the remission of past sins, during the forbearance of God, ²⁶ it might be an indication of this justification of his, pointing to a display of this justification of his at this time, in order to shew this, That he is just and the justifier of him who is a believer in Jesus.

⁶ For while we were yet without strength, Christ In due time died for the ungodly: ⁷ for scarcely will any one die for a just man; though perhaps for the good some one may even flare to die: ⁸ but God confirmeth his love for us, because while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. ⁹ Much more therefore shall we, being now acquitted by his blood, be saved by him from the wrath; ¹⁰ For if we, when enemies, were reconciled to God by the death of his son, much more shall we, being reconciled, be saved by his life. ¹¹ And not only so. but we also boast in God. through out Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now obtained this reconciliation,

¹⁶ nor is this free gift as in the case when one sinned" for the sentence was a condemnation for one offence, but the ¹⁷ free gift is an acquittal from many transgressions. For if for the offence of the one, death reigned by that one; much more shall they who receive the superabundance of this favour and of the free gift of this acquittal, reign in life by the other, namely Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ Therefore as by one transgression there was a sentence of condemnation for all men; so by one acquittal there is an adjudication of life for all men. ¹⁹ For as by the disobedience of the one man, the many were ranked as sinners, so also by the obedience of the other man, the many will be ranked as righteous. ²⁰ Now the law came in a little way, so that transgression abounded, but where sin abounded, favour superabounded, ²¹ that as sin had reigned by death, so favour might reign by means' of a justification for everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

³⁴ who is he who shall condemn? Christ who died? Rather indeed who is raised up, who is actually at the right hand of God, and who maketh intercession for us?

⁴ For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one who believeth:

⁶ who gave himself as a ransom for all; as the testimony for his own times;

¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

¹⁰ For it became him for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, when bringing many sons to glory to make the leader of their salvation perfect by sufferings.

¹⁸ knowing that from that vain course of life, handed down to you from your fathers, you have been redeemed not with perishable things such as silver and gold, ¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot,

²⁴ who himself offered up our sins in his own body on the cross, that we, being freed from those sins, might live for righteousness; "by whose stripes you have been healed."

¹⁸ Because Christ himself suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God: being indeed put to death in flesh, but brought to life by that spirit

²³ when the sin which he hath thereby committed is made known to him he shall bring as his gift a goat from the goats a male without blemish,

²⁵ And the priest with his finger shall put some of the blood of this sin offering on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offerings. Now all the blood thereof he is to pour out at the base of the altar of whole burnt offerings

¹ And if his gift to the Lord be a sacrifice of thanks giving, and he bring it from the herd, whether it be a male or a female, he shall bring it without blemish before the Lord ² and shall lay his hands on the head of the gift and kill it before the Lord at the doors of the tabernacle of the testimony. And the sons of Aaron, the priests shall pour the blood on the altar of whole burnt offerings round about: ³ And from the sacrifice of thanksgiving they shall offer up as an homage offering to the Lord the caul which covereth the belly and all the suet on the belly ⁴ and the two kidneys with the suet on them, and that on the flanks, and with the kidneys he shall take off the lobe of the liver. ⁵ And the sons of Aaron, the priests shall offer up these on the altar; on the whole burnt offerings which are on the wood on the fire. It is an offering of homage, a smell of fragrance for the Lord. ⁶ And if his gift be a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Lord from the flock, whether it be a male or a female, he shall offer it without blemish. ⁷ If he bring a lamb as his gift he shall bring it before the Lord ⁸ and lay his hands on the head of his gift and kill it at the doors of the tabernacle of the testimony, and the sons of Aaron the priest shall pour the blood on the altar round about. ⁹ And from the sacrifice of thanksgiving he shall offer as an offering of homage to the Lord the fat tail and the whole loin which he shall take off with the rump; and having taken off the caul which covereth the inwards and all the fat on the belly ¹⁰ and the two kidneys with the suet on them and on the loin and the lobe of the liver with the kidneys ¹¹ the priest shall offer up these on the altar. It is a sweet savour, an offering of homage to the Lord. ¹² And if his gift be from the goats, he shall bring it before the Lord ¹³ and lay his hands on its head, and they shall kill it before the Lord at the doors of the tabernacle of the testimony; and the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall pour out the blood against the altar round about; ¹⁴ And from it he shall offer up as an offering of homage to the Lord the caul which covereth the belly and all the fat on the belly ¹⁵ and both the kidneys and all the suet on them. That on the loins and the lobe of the liver he shall take off with the kidneys ¹⁶ and the priest shall offer them on the altar. It is an offering of homage, a smell of fragrance for the Lord. ¹⁷ All the .suet for the Lord shall be an ordinance for ever throughout your generations. You shall not eat suet nor blood of any kind.

¹⁹ So because God was in Christ reconciling a world to himself, not reckoning to them their transgressions, and hath committed to us the word of this reconciliation, ²⁰ we therefore as ambassadors for Christ; as if God were exhorting by us, we, in behalf of Christ, intreat, "Be reconciled to God; ²¹ for he hath made him who knew no sin, a sin offering for us, that by him we may be made the righteousness of God;

⁸ of the children of Issachar, Nathaniel, son of Sogar;

⁵ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Issachar, and the chief of the Issacharites shall be Nathaniel, son of Sogar;

²⁰ And Noe built an altar to the Lord, and took of all the cattle which are clean and of all the fowls which are clean, and offered them up upon the altar for a whole homage offering.

¹ therefore I exhort you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living, holy, acceptable sacrifice to God as your rational, religious service;

² And walk in love, even as the Christ loved us, and delivered himself up for us, as an3 offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour.

¹¹ This is the law of the sacrifice of thanksgiving which they shall offer to the Lord: ¹² If one offereth it for praise, he shall bring with the sacrifice of praise loaves of fine flour make up with oil, and unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and fine flour tempered with oil. ¹³ With loaves of leavened bread he shall present these gifts of his for a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving; ¹⁴ "I have a peace offering; today I am paying my vows:

¹ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy the brother,

⁹ of the Zabulonites, Eliab, son of Chailon;

⁷ and they who encamp adjoining, shall be the division of the tribe of Zabulon, and the chief of the Zabulonites shall be Eliab, son of Chailon;

⁸ I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices. And as for thy whole burnt offerings which are continually before me, ⁹ I will not take young bulls from thy house, nor he goats from thy folds. ¹⁰ For all the beasts of the forests are mine, the cattle on the mountains, and the beeves. ¹¹ I claim all the birds of the air; and to me belong the ripe fruits of the field. ¹² If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the World is mine and the fulness thereof. ¹³ Do I eat the flesh of bulls? Or do I drink the blood of goats? ¹⁴ Sacrifice to God a sacrifice of praise, and pay thy vows to the Most High.

¹⁶ Hadst thou desired sacrifice, I would have given it. In whole burnt offerings thou wilt not take delight.

¹¹ "What is the multitude of your sacrifices to me?" saith the Lord: I am cloyed with whole burnt offerings of rams: in the fat of lambs and the blood of bulls and goats I have no delight;

²² Because I did not speak to your fathers nor give them a charge, on the day when I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, concerning the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices;

²² Therefore though you offer me whole burnt offerings, I will not accept your sacrifices nor regard your sumptuous peace offerings.

¹⁰ while the whole multitude of the people were praying without, at the time of the incense offering.

¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot,

²⁷ As for you, the unction which you have received from him abideth in you, and you have no need that any one should teach you. As then this unction itself teacheth you concerning all, and is true, and is not a falsity; abide ye in him as it hath taught you.

²¹ for he hath made him who knew no sin, a sin offering for us, that by him we may be made the righteousness of God;

¹⁰ of the children of Joseph; of the Ephraimites, Elisama, son of Emiud; of the Manassites, Gamaliel, son of Phadassur;

²⁷ Now one week shall confirm a covenant for many and in the half of that week my sacrifice and libation shall be taken away. And upon the temple shall be an abomination of the desolations, and at the end of a time, an end shall be put to that desolation.

¹⁶ that I should be a ministering servant of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, and employed in the holy service of dispensing the glad tidings of God, that the offering of the Gentiles may be accepted, being hallowed by a holy spirit.

¹⁸ Now I have all things and abound. I am fully supplied, having received your presents by Epaphroditus, a fragrant odour, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

¹⁰ We have an altar from which they who serve in the tabernacle have no right to eat.

¹⁴ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations on which were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁴ Now behold according to my poor ability I have provided for the house of the Lord a hundred talents of gold, and ten hundred talents of silver, and brass and iron without weight, because of their abundance. I have also provided timber and stones, but thou must add thereto.

⁴ three thousand talents of the gold of Souphir, and seven thousand talents of pure silver, for overlaying therewith the walls of the sanctuary,

⁷ and gave for the works of the house of the Lord five thousand talents and ten thousand pieces of gold, and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron.

²⁵ and I weighed out to them the silver and the gold, and the vessels which were dedicated to the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors, and his chiefs, and all the Israelites there, had dedicated; ²⁶ I weighed into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and a hundred vessels of silver and a hundred talents of gold,

¹⁸ And thou shalt make two cherubs of turned gold, and place them at the two sides of the propitiatory. ¹⁹ They shall be made, one cherub at one side, and the other cherub at the other side of the propitiatory. Thou shalt make the two cherubs at the two sides; ²⁰ and the cherubs shall have their wings stretched forth above and shall overshadow the propitiatory with their wings; and their faces shall be towards each other. The faces of the cherubs shall be towards the propitiatory. ²¹ And thou shalt put the propitiatory upon the ark; and into the ark thou shalt put the testimonies which I give thee. ²² And there I will make myself known to thee and speak to thee from above the propitiatory, from between the two cherubs which are on the ark of the testimony, touching all that I give thee in charge to the children of Israel.

⁹ And when Moses entered the tabernacle, the pillar of cloud descended and stood at the door of the tabernacle and talked with Moses. ¹⁰ And when all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the door of the tabernacle all the people as they were standing worshipped every one at his tent door. ¹¹ And when the Lord had talked with Moses face to face as one would talk to his friend, Moses returned to the camp, but his attendant Joshua the son of Nave being young did not go out of the tabernacle.

¹ Then the Lord called up Moses and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of the testimony saying,

¹ Again the Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sina, in the tabernacle of the testimony, on the first day of the second month, in the second year of their coming out of the land of Egypt, and said,

⁸ Mouth to mouth, I will speak to him personally, and not in dark sentences. He hath actually seen the glory of God. Why then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses.

⁴ So the people sent to Selom, and brought thence the ark of the Lord who is enthroned on the cherubim. And both the sons of Eli, Ophni and Phineas, went with the ark.

²³ And in the dabir, he made two cherubim; ten cubits the exact magnitude,

¹ For the conclusion. Respecting them who are to be changed. A testimony. By Asaph. A Psalm respecting the Assyrian. Give ear, O shepherd of Israel! Who leadest Joseph like a flock; thou who art enthroned on the cherubim;

¹ A Psalm by David. The Lord hath commenced his reign: let peoples rage. He is enthroned on the cherubim; let the earth be shaken.

¹⁶ Let us therefore come with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find favour for seasonable assistance.

¹² to whom it was revealed that it was not for themselves, but for us, that they dispensed those things which have now been announced to you by them who proclaimed to you the glad tidings with a holy spirit sent from heaven; into which things angels have an earnest desire to look narrowly.
