¹² And the first day of the unleavened food, when they were killing the passover, his disciples say to him, `Where wilt thou, that, having gone, we may prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?'

¹⁵ Seven days ye eat unleavened things; only—in the first day ye cause leaven to cease out of your houses; for any one eating anything fermented from the first day till the seventh day, even that person hath been cut off from Israel. ¹⁶ `And in the first day is a holy convocation, and in the seventh day ye have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person—it alone is done by you,

⁶ `Seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day is a feast to Jehovah; ⁷ unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border.

²⁹ `Thy fulness and thy liquids thou dost not delay; the first-born of thy sons thou dost give to Me;

¹⁶ and the Feast of Harvest, the first fruits of thy works which thou sowest in the field; and the Feast of the In-Gathering, in the outgoing of the year, in thy gathering thy works out of the field.

² `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land of your dwellings, which I am giving to you,

¹⁸ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, In your coming in unto the land whither I am bringing you in, ¹⁹ then it hath been, in your eating of the bread of the land, ye heave up a heave-offering to Jehovah; ²⁰ the beginning of your dough a cake ye heave up—a heave-offering; as the heave-offering of a threshing-floor, so ye do heave it. ²¹ Of the beginning of your dough ye do give to Jehovah a heave-offering—to your generations.

²⁶ `And in the day of the first-fruits, in your bringing near a new present to Jehovah, in your weeks, a holy convocation ye have; ye do no servile work;

⁹ `Seven weeks thou dost number to thee; from the beginning of the sickle among the standing corn thou dost begin to number seven weeks,

²⁰ `This is an offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they bring near to Jehovah in the day of his being anointed; a tenth of the ephah of flour for a continual present, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening;

¹⁰ `And on the eighth day he taketh two lambs, perfect ones, and one ewe-lamb, daughter of a year, a perfect one, and three tenth deals of flour for a present, mixed with oil, and one log of oil.

³ then ye have prepared a fire-offering to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or free-will-offering, or in your appointed things, to make a sweet fragrance to Jehovah, out of the herd, or out of the flock. ⁴ `And he who is bringing near his offering to Jehovah hath brought near a present of flour, a tenth deal, mixed with a fourth of the hin of oil; <sup>5</sup> and wine for a libation, a fourth of the hin thou dost prepare for the burnt-offering or for a sacrifice, for the one lamb; <sup>6</sup> or for a ram thou dost prepare a present of flour, two-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a third of the hin; <sup>7</sup> and wine for a libation, a third part of the hin, thou dost bring near—a sweet fragrance to Jehovah. <sup>8</sup> `And when thou makest a son of the herd a burnt-offering or a sacrifice, at separating a vow or peace-offerings to Jehovah, ⁹ then he hath brought near for the son of the herd a present of flour, three-tenth deals, mixed with oil, a half of the hin; ¹⁰ and wine thou bringest near for a libation, a half of the hin—a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah; ¹¹ thus it is done for the one ox, or for the one ram, or for a lamb of the sheep or of the goats. ¹² `According to the number that ye prepare, so ye do to each, according to their number;

¹⁰ the burnt-offering of the sabbath in its sabbath, besides the continual burnt-offering and its libation.

¹¹ `And water by measure thou dost drink, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time thou dost drink it .

²⁴ And a present of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he doth prepare, and of oil a hin for an ephah.

¹⁴ And a present thou dost make for it morning by morning, a sixth part of the ephah, and of oil a third part of the hin, to temper with the fine flour, a present to Jehovah, by a statute age-during—continually;

⁹ Cut off hath been present and libation from the house of Jehovah, Mourned have the priests, ministrants of Jehovah.

¹³ Gird, and lament, ye priests, Howl, ye ministrants of the altar, Come in, lodge in sackcloth, ministrants of my God, For withheld from the house of your God hath been present and libation.

¹⁴ Who knoweth—He doth turn back, Yea—He hath repented, And He hath left behind Him a blessing, A present and libation of Jehovah your God?

⁴ and Abel, he hath brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, even from their fat ones; and Jehovah looketh unto Abel and unto his present, ⁵ and unto Cain and unto his present He hath not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.

¹⁷ `A statute age-during to your generations in all your dwellings: any fat or any blood ye do not eat.'

¹¹ and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.'

²³ `And when ye come in unto the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then ye have reckoned as uncircumcised its fruit, three years it is to you uncircumcised, it is not eaten, ²⁴ and in the fourth year all its fruit is holy—praises for Jehovah. ²⁵ And in the fifth year ye do eat its fruit—to add to you its increase; I am Jehovah your God.

² `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, then hath the land kept a sabbath to Jehovah. <sup>3</sup> `Six years thou dost sow thy field, and six years thou dost prune thy vineyard, and hast gathered its increase,

¹² and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and hast observed and done these statutes.

¹¹ and they eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow of the passover, unleavened things and roasted corn, in this self-same day; ¹² and the manna doth cease on the morrow in their eating of the old corn of the land, and there hath been no more manna to the sons of Israel, and they eat of the increase of the land of Canaan in that year.

¹⁴ And Thy holy sabbath Thou hast made known to them, and commands, and statutes, and law, Thou hast commanded for them, by the hand of Moses Thy servant;

⁸ The precepts of Jehovah are upright, Rejoicing the heart, The command of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes,

¹⁰ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, and have reaped its harvest, and have brought in the sheaf, the beginning of your harvest unto the priest, ¹¹ then he hath waved the sheaf before Jehovah for your acceptance; on the morrow of the sabbath doth the priest wave it.

⁸ `And thou hast numbered to thee seven sabbaths of years, seven years seven times, and the days of the seven sabbaths of years have been to thee nine and forty years,

⁹ `Seven weeks thou dost number to thee; from the beginning of the sickle among the standing corn thou dost begin to number seven weeks, ¹⁰ and thou hast made the feast of weeks to Jehovah thy God, a tribute of a free-will offering of thy hand, which thou dost give, as Jehovah thy God doth bless thee.

¹ And in the day of the Pentecost being fulfilled, they were all with one accord at the same place,

¹² `An offering of first-fruits —ye bring them near to Jehovah, but on the altar they go not up, for sweet fragrance.

¹³ besides the cakes, fermented bread he doth bring near with his offering, besides the sacrifice of thank-offering of his peace-offerings;

¹⁰ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye come in unto the land which I am giving to you, and have reaped its harvest, and have brought in the sheaf, the beginning of your harvest unto the priest,

¹⁷ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹ `And it hath been, when thou comest in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee—an inheritance, and thou hast possessed it, and dwelt in it, ² that thou hast taken of the first of all the fruits of the ground which thou dost bring in out of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and hast put it in a basket, and gone unto the place which Jehovah thy God doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle there.

³³ Another simile spake he to them: `The reign of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.'

²³ And not only so, but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting—the redemption of our body;

²⁰ And now, Christ hath risen out of the dead—the first-fruits of those sleeping he became,

¹² `And ye have prepared in the day of your waving the sheaf a lamb, a perfect one, a son of a year, for a burnt-offering to Jehovah, ¹³ and its present two tenth deals of flour mixed with oil, a fire-offering to Jehovah, a sweet fragrance, and its drink-offering, wine, a fourth of the hin.

²⁷ and ye have brought near a burnt-offering for sweet fragrance to Jehovah: two bullocks, sons of the herd, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year, ²⁸ and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals to the one bullock, two-tenth deals to the one ram, ²⁹ a several tenth deal to the one lamb, for the seven lambs; ³⁰ one kid of the goats to make atonement for you; ³¹ apart from the continual burnt-offering and its present ye prepare them (perfect ones they are for you) and their libations.

¹³ And ye have said, `Lo, what a weariness,' And ye have puffed at it, said Jehovah of Hosts, And ye have brought in plunder, And the lame and the sick, And ye have brought in the present! Do I accept it from your hand? said Jehovah. ¹⁴ And cursed is a deceiver, who hath in his drove a male, And is vowing, and is sacrificing a marred thing to the Lord, For a great king am I, said Jehovah of Hosts, And My name is revered among nations!

¹ `And if his offering is a sacrifice of peace-offerings, if out of the herd he is bringing near, whether male or female, a perfect one he doth bring near before Jehovah, <sup>2</sup> and he hath laid his hand on the head of his offering, and hath slaughtered it at the opening of the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron, the priests, have sprinkled the blood on the altar round about. <sup>3</sup> `And he hath brought near from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings a fire-offering to Jehovah, the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which is on the inwards, ⁴ and the two kidneys, and the fat which is on them, which is on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside), ⁵ and sons of Aaron have made it a perfume on the altar, on the burnt-offering which is on the wood, which is on the fire—a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
⁶ `And if his offering is out of the flock for a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, male or female, a perfect one he doth bring near; <sup>7</sup> if a sheep he is bringing near for his offering, then he hath brought it near before Jehovah, <sup>8</sup> and hath laid his hand on the head of his offering, and hath slaughtered it before the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about. <sup>9</sup> `And he hath brought near from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings a fire-offering to Jehovah, its fat, the whole fat tail (over-against the bone he doth turn it aside), and the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which is on the inwards, ¹⁰ and the two kidneys, and the fat which is on them, which is on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside), ¹¹ and the priest hath made it a perfume on the altar—bread of a fire-offering to Jehovah. ¹² `And if his offering is a goat, then he hath brought it near before Jehovah, <sup>13</sup> and hath laid his hand on its head, and hath slaughtered it before the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about; <sup>14</sup> and he hath brought near from it his offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah, the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which is on the inwards, <sup>15</sup> and the two kidneys, and the fat which is upon them, which is on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside), <sup>16</sup> and the priest hath made them a perfume on the altar—bread of a fire-offering, for sweet fragrance; all the fat is Jehovah's. <sup>17</sup> `A statute age-during to your generations in all your dwellings: any fat or any blood ye do not eat.'

²³ or his sin wherein he hath sinned hath been made known unto him, then he hath brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a male, a perfect one, ²⁴ and he hath laid his hand on the head of the goat, and hath slaughtered it in the place where he doth slaughter the burnt-offering before Jehovah; it is a sin-offering. ²⁵ `And the priest hath taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and hath put on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and its blood he doth pour out at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, <sup>26</sup> and with all its fat he doth make perfume on the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest hath made atonement for him because of his sin, and it hath been forgiven him.
<sup>27</sup> `And if any person of the people of the land sin through ignorance, by his doing something against one of the commands of Jehovah regarding things which are not to be done, and hath been guilty— ²⁸ or his sin which he hath sinned hath been made known unto him, then he hath brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a perfect one, a female, for his sin which he hath sinned,

¹¹ `And this is a law of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which one bringeth near to Jehovah: <sup>12</sup> if for a thank-offering he bring it near, then he hath brought near with the sacrifice of thank-offering unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and thin unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and of fried flour cakes mixed with oil; <sup>13</sup> besides the cakes, fermented bread he doth bring near with his offering, besides the sacrifice of thank-offering of his peace-offerings; <sup>14</sup> and he hath brought near out of it one of the whole offering—a heave-offering to Jehovah; to the priest who is sprinkling the blood of the peace-offerings—it is his; <sup>15</sup> as to the flesh of the sacrifice of the thank-offering of his peace-offerings, in the day of his offering it is eaten; he doth not leave of it till morning. <sup>16</sup> `And if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow or free-will offering, in the day of his bringing near his sacrifice it is eaten; and on the morrow also the remnant of it is eaten; ¹⁷ and the remnant of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day with fire is burnt; ¹⁸ and if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings be really eaten on the third day, it is not pleasing; for him who is bringing it near it is not reckoned; it is an abominable thing, and the person who is eating of it his iniquity doth bear.

¹⁵ `And he hath slaughtered the goat of the sin-offering which is the people's, and hath brought in its blood unto the inside of the vail, and hath done with its blood as he hath done with the blood of the bullock, and hath sprinkled it on the mercy-seat, and at the front of the mercy-seat,

²⁴ then it hath been, if from the eyes of the company it hath been done in ignorance, that all the company have prepared one bullock, a son of the herd, for a burnt-offering, for sweet fragrance to Jehovah, and its present, and its libation, according to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering.

³⁰ one kid of the goats to make atonement for you;

³ for what the law was not able to do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, His own Son having sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, did condemn the sin in the flesh,

²¹ for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.

²⁹ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, He who is bringing near the sacrifice of his peace-offerings to Jehovah doth bring in his offering to Jehovah from the sacrifice of his peace-offerings; <sup>30</sup> his own hands do bring in the fire-offerings of Jehovah, the fat beside the breast, it he doth bring in with the breast, to wave it—a wave-offering before Jehovah. <sup>31</sup> `And the priest hath made perfume with the fat on the altar, and the breast hath been Aaron's and his sons; ³² and the right leg ye do make a heave-offering to the priest of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; ³³ he of the sons of Aaron who is bringing near the blood of the peace-offerings, and the fat, his is the right leg for a portion. ³⁴ `For the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, I have taken from the sons of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and I give them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a statute age-during, from the sons of Israel.'

²⁹ and Moses taketh the breast, and waveth it—a wave-offering before Jehovah; of the ram of the consecrations it hath been to Moses for a portion, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.

¹⁴ `And the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, ye do eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for thy portion and the portion of thy sons they have been given, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel; ¹⁵ the leg of the heave-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they do bring in to wave a wave-offering before Jehovah, and it hath been to thee, and to thy sons with thee, by a statute age-during, as Jehovah hath commanded.'

⁸ And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron: `And I, lo, I have given to thee the charge of My heave-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel—to thee I have given them for the anointing, and to thy sons, by a statute age-during. <sup>9</sup> This is thine of the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, to all their present, and to all their sin-offering, and to all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to thee, and to thy sons; <sup>10</sup> in the holy of holies thou dost eat it; every male doth eat it; holy it is to thee. <sup>11</sup> `And this is thine: the heave-offering of their gift, to all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel, to thee I have given them, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during; every clean one in thy house doth eat it; ¹² all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat—their first-fruits which they give to Jehovah—to thee I have given them.

⁴ the first of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy flock, thou dost give to him;

¹⁴ `Glory in the highest to God, and upon earth peace, among men—good will.'

¹¹ If we to you the spiritual things did sow—great is it if we your fleshly things do reap?

¹⁴ for he is our peace, who did make both one, and the middle wall of the enclosure did break down,

⁷ `And I have established My covenant between Me and thee, and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for a covenant age-during, to become God to thee, and to thy seed after thee;

¹⁶ `And in the first day is a holy convocation, and in the seventh day ye have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person—it alone is done by you, ¹⁷ and ye have observed the unleavened things, for in this self-same day I have brought out your hosts from the land of Egypt, and ye have observed this day to your generations—a statute age-during.

⁷ on the first day ye have a holy convocation, ye do no servile work;

¹⁴ `And bread and roasted corn and full ears ye do not eat until this self-same day, until your bringing in the offering of your God—a statute age-during to your generations, in all your dwellings.

²³ and the Levites have done the service of the tent of meeting, and they—they bear their iniquity; a statute age-during to your generations, that in the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance;

¹¹ And thou hast rejoiced before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in thy midst, in the place which Jehovah thy God doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle there,

¹⁰ And there hath been, in that day, A root of Jesse that is standing for an ensign of peoples, Unto him do nations seek, And his rest hath been—honour!

⁹ `And in your reaping the harvest of your land ye do not completely reap the corner of thy field, and the gleaning of thy harvest thou dost not gather, ¹⁰ and thy vineyard thou dost not glean, even the omitted part of thy vineyard thou dost not gather, to the poor and to the sojourner thou dost leave them; I am Jehovah your God.

¹¹ And thou hast rejoiced before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in thy midst, in the place which Jehovah thy God doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle there, ¹² and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and hast observed and done these statutes. ¹³ `The feast of booths thou dost make for thee seven days, in thine in-gathering of thy threshing-floor, and of thy wine-vat; ¹⁴ and thou hast rejoiced in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates.

¹⁹ `When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgotten a sheaf in a field, thou dost not turn back to take it; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is; so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hands. <sup>20</sup> `When thou beatest thine olive, thou dost not examine the branch behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is. ²¹ `When thou cuttest thy vineyard, thou dost not glean behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is;

³ And she goeth and cometh and gathereth in a field after the reapers, and her chance happeneth—the portion of the field is Boaz's who is of the family of Elimelech.
⁴ And lo, Boaz hath come from Beth-Lehem, and saith to the reapers, `Jehovah is with you;' and they say to him, `Jehovah doth bless thee.' ⁵ And Boaz saith to his young man who is set over the reapers, `Whose is this young person?' <sup>6</sup> And the young man who is set over the reapers answereth and saith, `A young woman—Moabitess—she is, who came back with Naomi from the fields of Moab, ⁷ and she saith, Let me glean, I pray thee—and I have gathered among the sheaves after the reapers; and she cometh and remaineth since the morning and till now; she sat in the house a little.

¹⁵ And she riseth to glean, and Boaz chargeth his young men, saying, `Even between the sheaves she doth glean, and ye do not cause her to blush; <sup>16</sup> and also ye do surely cast to her of the handfuls—and have left, and she hath gleaned, and ye do not push against her.'
<sup>17</sup> And she gleaneth in the field till the evening, and beateth out that which she hath gleaned, and it is about an ephah of barley; <sup>18</sup> and she taketh it up, and goeth into the city, and her mother-in-law seeth that which she hath gleaned, and she bringeth out and giveth to her that which she left from her satiety. <sup>19</sup> And her mother-in-law saith to her, `Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where hast thou wrought? may he who is discerning thee be blessed.' And she declareth to her mother-in-law with whom she hath wrought, and saith, `The name of the man with whom I have wrought to-day is Boaz.' <sup>20</sup> And Naomi saith to her daughter-in-law, `Blessed is he of Jehovah who hath not forsaken His kindness with the living and with the dead;' and Naomi saith to her, `The man is a relation of ours; he is of our redeemers.' <sup>21</sup> And Ruth the Moabitess saith, `Also he surely said unto me, Near the young people whom I have thou dost cleave till they have completed the whole of the harvest which I have.' ²² And Naomi saith unto Ruth her daughter-in-law, `Good, my daughter, that thou goest out with his young women, and they come not against thee in another field.' ²³ And she cleaveth to the young women of Boaz to glean, till the completion of the barley-harvest, and of the wheat-harvest, and she dwelleth with her mother-in-law.

¹⁶ If I withhold from pleasure the poor, And the eyes of the widow do consume, ¹⁷ And I do eat my morsel by myself, And the orphan hath not eat of it, ¹⁸ (But from my youth He grew up with me as with a father, And from the belly of my mother I am led.) ¹⁹ If I see any perishing without clothing, And there is no covering to the needy, ²⁰ If his loins have not blessed me, And from the fleece of my sheep He doth not warm himself, ²¹ If I have waved at the fatherless my hand, When I see in him the gate of my court,

¹ To the Overseer. —A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him. ² Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies. ³ Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

⁹ He hath scattered—hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.

²⁴ There is who is scattering, and yet is increased, And who is keeping back from uprightness, only to want.
²⁵ A liberal soul is made fat, And whoso is watering, he also is watered.

⁷ Is it not to deal to the hungry thy bread, And the mourning poor bring home, That thou seest the naked and cover him, And from thine own flesh hide not thyself?
⁸ Then broken up as the dawn is thy light, And thy health in haste springeth up, Gone before thee hath thy righteousness, The honour of Jehovah doth gather thee.

¹⁰ And dost bring out to the hungry thy soul, And the afflicted soul dost satisfy, Then risen in the darkness hath thy light, And thy thick darkness is as noon.

⁴¹ But what ye have give ye as alms, and, lo, all things are clean to you.

⁵ Necessary, therefore, I thought it to exhort the brethren, that they may go before to you, and may make up before your formerly announced blessing, that this be ready, as a blessing, and not as covetousness.
⁶ And this: He who is sowing sparingly, sparingly also shall reap; and he who is sowing in blessings, in blessings also shall reap; ⁷ each one, according as he doth purpose in heart, not out of sorrow or out of necessity, for a cheerful giver doth God love, ⁸ and God is able all grace to cause to abound to you, that in every thing always all sufficiency having, ye may abound to every good work, ⁹ (according as it hath been written, `He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor, his righteousness doth remain to the age,') ¹⁰ and may He who is supplying seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness, ¹¹ in every thing being enriched to all liberality, which doth work through us thanksgiving to God, ¹² because the ministration of this service not only is supplying the wants of the saints, but is also abounding through many thanksgivings to God,

⁹ and thou hast caused a trumpet of shouting to pass over in the seventh month, in the tenth of the month; in the day of the atonements ye do cause a trumpet to pass over through all your land;

⁹ `And when ye go into battle in your land against the adversary who is distressing you, then ye have shouted with the trumpets, and ye have been remembered before Jehovah your God, and ye have been saved from your enemies. <sup>10</sup> `And in the day of your gladness, and in your appointed seasons, and in the beginnings of your months, ye have blown also with the trumpets over your burnt-offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings, and they have been to you for a memorial before your God; I, Jehovah, am your God.'

¹ `And in the seventh month, in the first of the month, a holy convocation ye have, ye do no servile work; a day of shouting it is to you; ² and ye have prepared a burnt-offering, for sweet fragrance to Jehovah: one bullock, a son of the herd, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; ³ and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals for the bullock, two-tenth deals for the ram, ⁴ and one-tenth deal for the one lamb, for the seven lambs; ⁵ and one kid of the goats, a sin-offering, to make atonement for you; ⁶ apart from the burnt-offering of the month, and its present, and the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and their libations, according to their ordinance, for sweet fragrance, a fire-offering to Jehovah.

²⁸ And all Israel are bringing up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of a cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding with psalteries and harps,

¹³ yea, it cometh to pass, as one are trumpeters and singers, to sound—one voice—to praise and to give thanks to Jehovah, and at the lifting up of the sound with trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and at giving praise to Jehovah, for good, for to the age is His kindness, that the house is filled with a cloud—the house of Jehovah,

⁶ From the first day of the seventh month they have begun to cause burnt-offerings to ascend to Jehovah, and the temple of Jehovah hath not been founded,

¹ To the Overseer. —`On the Gittith.' By Asaph. Cry aloud to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob. ² Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp with psaltery. ³ Blow in the month a trumpet, In the new moon, at the day of our festival, ⁴ For a statute to Israel it is, An ordinance of the God of Jacob.

⁶ With trumpets, and voice of a cornet, Shout ye before the king Jehovah.

¹³ And it hath come to pass, in that day, It is blown with a great trumpet, And come in have those perishing in the land of Asshur, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to Jehovah, In the holy mount—in Jerusalem!

⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we—we shall be changed:

¹⁶ because the Lord himself, in a shout, in the voice of a chief-messenger, and in the trump of God, shall come down from heaven, and the dead in Christ shall rise first,

¹⁰ and Aaron hath made atonement on its horns, once in a year, by the blood of the sin-offering of atonements; once in a year doth he make atonement for it, to your generations; it is most holy to Jehovah.'

¹¹ `And Aaron hath brought near the bullock of the sin-offering which is his own, and hath made atonement for himself, and for his house, and hath slaughtered the bullock of the sin-offering which is his own,

²⁴ and he hath bathed his flesh with water in the holy place, and hath put on his garments, and hath come out, and hath made his burnt-offering, and the burnt-offering of the people, and hath made atonement for himself and for the people;

²⁹ `And it hath been to you for a statute age-during, in the seventh month, in the tenth of the month, ye humble yourselves, and do no work—the native, and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst; ³⁰ for on this day he maketh atonement for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins before Jehovah ye are clean; ³¹ it is to you a sabbath of rest, and ye have humbled yourselves—a statute age-during.

⁷ `And on the tenth of this seventh month a holy convocation ye have, and ye have humbled your souls; ye do no work; ⁸ and ye have brought near a burnt-offering to Jehovah, a sweet fragrance, one bullock, a son of the herd, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones they are for you, ⁹ and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals for the bullock, two-tenth deals for the one ram, ¹⁰ a several tenth deal for the one lamb, for the seven lambs, ¹¹ one kid of the goats, a sin-offering; apart from the sin-offering of the atonements, and the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and their libations.

²¹ And I proclaim there a fast, by the river Ahava, to afflict ourselves before our God, to seek from Him a right way for us, and for our infants, and for all our substance,

¹³ And I—in their sickness my clothing is sackcloth, I have humbled with fastings my soul, And my prayer unto my bosom returneth.

⁵ Like this is the fast that I choose? The day of a man's afflicting his soul? To bow as a reed his head, And sackcloth and ashes spread out? This dost thou call a fast, And a desirable day—to Jehovah?

² `In those days, I, Daniel, have been mourning three weeks of days; ³ desirable bread I have not eaten, and flesh and wine hath not come in unto my mouth, and I have not anointed myself at all, till the completion of three weeks of days.

¹⁰ And I have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.

³⁷ And having heard, they were pricked to the heart; they say also to Peter, and to the rest of the apostles, `What shall we do, men, brethren?' <sup>38</sup> and Peter said unto them, `Reform, and be baptized each of you on the name of Jesus Christ, to remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,

¹⁰ for the sorrow toward God reformation to salvation not to be repented of doth work, and the sorrow of the world doth work death, ¹¹ for, lo, this same thing—your being made sorry toward God—how much diligence it doth work in you! but defence, but displeasure, but fear, but longing desire, but zeal, but revenge; in every thing ye did approve yourselves to be pure in the matter.

⁹ be exceeding afflicted, and mourn, and weep, let your laughter to mourning be turned, and the joy to heaviness;

³⁴ `And this hath been to you for a statute age-during, to make atonement for the sons of Israel, because of all their sins, once in a year;' and he doth as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.

¹⁰ And Jehovah hath delighted to bruise him, He hath made him sick, If his soul doth make an offering for guilt, He seeth seed—he prolongeth days, And the pleasure of Jehovah in his hand doth prosper.

²⁴ `Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies.

⁹ For lo, the stone that I put before Joshua, On one stone are seven eyes, Lo, I am graving its graving, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And I have removed the iniquity of that land in one day.

¹⁰ for if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in his life. ¹¹ And not only so, but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation;

¹² neither through blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, did enter in once into the holy places, age-during redemption having obtained;

²⁶ since it had behoved him many times to suffer from the foundation of the world, but now once, at the full end of the ages, for putting away of sin through his sacrifice, he hath been manifested;

¹⁰ in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,

¹⁴ for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;

² and he—he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world,

¹⁰ in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.

⁶ This one is he who did come through water and blood—Jesus the Christ, not in the water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit it is that is testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,

¹⁴ and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, even that person hath been cut off from his people; My covenant he hath broken.'

²⁷ `Only—on the tenth of this seventh month is a day of atonements; ye have a holy convocation, and ye have humbled yourselves, and have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah;

³² It is a sabbath of rest to you, and ye have humbled yourselves in the ninth of the month at even; from evening till evening ye do keep your sabbath.'

² `Command the sons of Israel, and they send out of the camp every leper, and every one with an issue, and every one defiled by a body;

¹² And call doth the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In that day, to weeping and to lamentation, And to baldness and to girding on of sackcloth,

⁹ With weeping they come in, And with supplications I bring them, I cause them to go unto streams of waters, In a right way—they stumble not in it, For I have been to Israel for a father, And Ephraim—My first-born is he.

¹⁶ And escaped away have their fugitives, And they have been on the mountains As doves of the valleys, All of them make a noising—each for his iniquity.

³ and I—I set My face against that man, and have cut him off from the midst of his people, for of his seed he hath given to the Molech, so as to defile My sanctuary, and to pollute My holy name.

⁵ then I have set My face against that man, and against his family, and have cut him off, and all who are going a-whoring after him, even going a-whoring after the Molech, from the midst of their people. ⁶ `And the person who turneth unto those having familiar spirits, and unto the wizards, to go a-whoring after them, I have even set My face against that person, and cut him off from the midst of his people.

⁷ And I scatter them with a fan, in the gates the land, I bereaved, I have destroyed My people, From their ways they turned not back.

⁹ `And the prophet, when he is enticed, and hath spoken a word—I, Jehovah, I have enticed that prophet, and have stretched out My hand against him, and have destroyed him from the midst of My people Israel.

⁵ Ho! O inhabitants of the sea-coast, Nation of the Cherethites, A word of Jehovah is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines, And I have destroyed thee without an inhabitant.

¹⁷ if any one the sanctuary of God doth waste, him shall God waste; for the sanctuary of God is holy, the which ye are.

³¹ it is to you a sabbath of rest, and ye have humbled yourselves—a statute age-during.

¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, Thou dost not despise.

¹⁰ And I weep in the fasting of my soul, And it is for a reproach to me. ¹¹ And I make my clothing sackcloth, And I am to them for a simile.

⁵ Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap, ⁶ Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves!

¹⁵ For thus said the high and exalted One, Inhabiting eternity, and holy is His name: `In the high and holy place I dwell, And with the bruised and humble of spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of bruised ones,'

¹⁸ His ways I have seen, and I heal him, yea, I lead him, And recompense comforts to him and to his mourning ones. ¹⁹ Producing the fruit of the lips, `Peace, peace,' to the far off, and to the near, And I have healed him, said Jehovah.

³ `Why have we fasted, and Thou hast not seen? We have afflicted our soul, and Thou knowest not.' Lo, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, And all your labours ye exact. ⁴ Lo, for strife and debate ye fast, And to smite with the fist of wickedness, Ye fast not as to -day, To sound in the high place your voice. ⁵ Like this is the fast that I choose? The day of a man's afflicting his soul? To bow as a reed his head, And sackcloth and ashes spread out? This dost thou call a fast, And a desirable day—to Jehovah? ⁶ Is not this the fast that I chose—To loose the bands of wickedness, To shake off the burdens of the yoke, And to send out the oppressed free, And every yoke ye draw off? ⁷ Is it not to deal to the hungry thy bread, And the mourning poor bring home, That thou seest the naked and cover him, And from thine own flesh hide not thyself?

³ To appoint to mourners in Zion, To give to them beauty instead of ashes, The oil of joy instead of mourning, A covering of praise for a spirit of weakness, And He is calling to them, `Trees of righteousness, The planting of Jehovah—to be beautified.'

⁴ `Happy the mourning—because they shall be comforted.

²⁸ `Come unto me, all ye labouring and burdened ones, and I will give you rest, ²⁹ take up my yoke upon you, and learn from me, because I am meek and humble in heart, and ye shall find rest to your souls, ³⁰ for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.'
³¹ for if ourselves we were discerning, we would not be being judged,

³ for we do enter into the rest—we who did believe, as He said, `So I sware in My anger, If they shall enter into My rest—;' and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,

¹¹ May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one in the same example of the unbelief may fall,

¹² `And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month a holy convocation ye have; ye do no servile work; and ye have celebrated a festival to Jehovah seven days,

¹³ `The feast of booths thou dost make for thee seven days, in thine in-gathering of thy threshing-floor, and of thy wine-vat; ¹⁴ and thou hast rejoiced in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates. ¹⁵ Seven days thou dost feast before Jehovah thy God, in the place which Jehovah doth choose, for Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all thine increase, and in every work of thy hands, and thou hast been only rejoicing.

⁴ And they make the feast of the booths as it is written, and the burnt-offering of the day daily in number according to the ordinance, the matter of a day in its day;

¹⁴ And they find written in the law that Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel dwell in booths in the feast, in the seventh month,

¹⁶ And it hath come to pass, Every one who hath been left of all the nations, Who are coming in against Jerusalem, They have also gone up from year to year, To bow themselves to the King, Jehovah of Hosts, And to celebrate the feast of the booths. ¹⁷ And it hath come to pass, That he who doth not go up of the families of the land unto Jerusalem, To bow himself to the King, Jehovah of Hosts, Even on them there is no shower. ¹⁸ And if the family of Egypt go not up, nor come in, Then not on them is the plague With which Jehovah doth plague the nations That go not up to celebrate the feast of booths. ¹⁹ This is the punishment of the sin of Egypt, And the punishment of the sin of all the nations, That go not up to celebrate the feast of booths.

¹⁴ And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.

² and the feast of the Jews was nigh—that of tabernacles—

⁹ by faith he did sojourn in the land of the promise as a strange country, in tabernacles having dwelt with Isaac and Jacob, fellow-heirs of the same promise,

¹³ In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted them, and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth,

⁷ on the first day ye have a holy convocation, ye do no servile work; ⁸ and ye have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah seven days; in the seventh day is a holy convocation; ye do no servile work.'

²⁴ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, ye have a sabbath, a memorial of shouting, a holy convocation; ²⁵ ye do no servile work, and ye have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah.'

¹² `And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month a holy convocation ye have; ye do no servile work; and ye have celebrated a festival to Jehovah seven days, <sup>13</sup> and have brought near a burnt-offering, a fire-offering, a sweet fragrance, to Jehovah; thirteen bullocks, sons of the herd, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year; perfect ones they are; <sup>14</sup> and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals to the one bullock, for the thirteen bullocks, two-tenth deals to the one ram, for the two rams, <sup>15</sup> and a several tenth deal to the one lamb, for the fourteen lambs, <sup>16</sup> and one kid of the goats, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, its present, and its libation. <sup>17</sup> `And on the second day twelve bullocks, sons of the herd, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; ¹⁸ and their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the sheep, in their number, according to the ordinance; ¹⁹ and one kid of the goats, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and their libations. ²⁰ `And on the third day eleven bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; <sup>21</sup> and their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; <sup>22</sup> and one goat, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and its libation. <sup>23</sup> `And on the fourth day ten bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; ²⁴ their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; ²⁵ and one kid of the goats, a sin-offering, apart from the continual burnt-offering, its present, and its libation. ²⁶ `And on the fifth day nine bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; <sup>27</sup> and their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; <sup>28</sup> and one goat, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and its libation. <sup>29</sup> `And on the sixth day eight bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; ³⁰ and their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; ³¹ and one goat, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, its present, and its libation. ³² `And on the seventh day seven bullocks, two rams, fourteen lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; <sup>33</sup> and their present, and their libations, for the bullocks, for the rams, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; <sup>34</sup> and one goat, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, its present, and its libation. <sup>35</sup> `On the eighth day a restraint ye have, ye do no servile work; ³⁶ and ye have brought near a burnt-offering, a fire-offering, a sweet fragrance, to Jehovah; one bullock, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones; ³⁷ their present, and their libations, for the bullock, for the ram, and for the lambs, in their number, according to the ordinance; ³⁸ and one goat, a sin-offering; apart from the continual burnt-offering, and its present, and its libation.

⁸ And Solomon maketh the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him—a very great assembly—from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt. ⁹ And they make on the eighth day a restraint, because the dedication of the altar they have made seven days, and the feast seven days. ¹⁰ And on the twenty and third day of the seventh month he hath sent the people to their tents, rejoicing, and glad in heart, for the goodness that Jehovah hath done to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel His people. ¹¹ And Solomon finisheth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king; and all that hath come on the heart of Solomon to do in the house of Jehovah, and in his own house, he hath caused to prosper.

¹⁸ And he readeth in the book of the law of God day by day, from the first day till the last day, and they make a feast seven days, and on the eighth day a restraint, according to the ordinance.

³⁷ And in the last, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, `If any one doth thirst, let him come unto me and drink;

¹⁶ `Three times in a year doth every one of thy males appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which He doth choose—in the feast of unleavened things, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of booths; and they do not appear before Jehovah empty; ¹⁷ each according to the gift of his hand, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God, which He hath given to thee.

¹ To everything—a season, and a time to every delight under the heavens:

² and God completeth by the seventh day His work which He hath made, and ceaseth by the seventh day from all His work which He hath made. ³ And God blesseth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it, for in it He hath ceased from all His work which God had prepared for making.

³ six days is work done, and in the seventh day is a sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye do no work; it is a sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.

⁶ and hast brought in thither your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your free-will offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;

³ `And again, because of my delighting in the house of my God, the substance I have—a peculiar treasure of gold and silver—I have given for the house of my God, even over and above all I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary: ⁴ three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses, ⁵ even gold for things of gold, and silver for those of silver, and for all the work by the hand of artificers; and who is he that is offering willingly to consecrate his hand to-day to Jehovah?' ⁶ And the heads of the fathers, and the heads of the tribes of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, even to the heads of the work of the king, offer willingly. ⁷ And they give for the service of the house of God, of gold—talents five thousand, and drams a myriad; and of silver—talents ten thousand, and of brass—a myriad and eight thousand talents; and of iron—a hundred thousand talents; ⁸ and he with whom stones are found hath given to the treasury of the house of Jehovah, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

⁷ And Josiah lifteth up to the sons of the people a flock of lambs and young goats, the whole for passover-offerings, for every one who is found, to the number of thirty thousand, and oxen three thousand: these are from the substance of the king. ⁸ And his heads, for a willing-offering to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites, have lifted up; Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, leaders in the house of God, to the priests have given for passover-offerings two thousand and six hundred, and oxen three hundred;

⁶⁸ And some of the heads of the fathers in their coming in to the house of Jehovah that is in Jerusalem, have offered willingly for the house of God, to establish it on its base; ⁶⁹ according to their power they have given to the treasure of the work; of gold, drams six myriads and a thousand, and of silver, pounds five thousand, and of priests' coats, a hundred.

²⁴ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, ye have a sabbath, a memorial of shouting, a holy convocation;

³⁴ `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, In the fifteenth day of this seventh month is a feast of booths seven days to Jehovah;

³⁶ seven days ye bring near a fire-offering to Jehovah, on the eighth day ye have a holy convocation, and ye have brought near a fire-offering to Jehovah; it is a restraint, ye do no servile work.

¹³ `The feast of booths thou dost make for thee seven days, in thine in-gathering of thy threshing-floor, and of thy wine-vat;

¹⁴ And they find written in the law that Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel dwell in booths in the feast, in the seventh month, ¹⁵ and that they proclaim and cause to pass over all their cities, (and in Jerusalem,) saying, `Go ye out to the mount, and bring leaves of the olive, and leaves of the oil tree, and leaves of the myrtle, and leaves of the palms, and leaves of thick trees, to make booths as it is written.' ¹⁶ And the people go out, and bring in, and make for themselves booths, each on his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the broad place of the water-gate, and in the broad place of the gate of Ephraim. ¹⁷ And they make—all the assembly of the captives of the captivity—booths, and they sit in booths; for the sons of Israel had not done, from the days of Jeshua son of Nun, so unto that day, and there is very great joy.

¹² The righteous as a palm-tree flourisheth, As a cedar in Lebanon he groweth.

¹⁰ And the ransomed of Jehovah return, And have entered Zion with singing. And joy age-during on their head, Joy and gladness they attain, And fled away have sorrow and sighing!

¹⁰ Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, And be glad in her, all ye loving her, Rejoice ye with her for joy, All ye are mourning for her,

⁸ and the very great multitude spread their own garments in the way, and others were cutting branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way,

¹³ took the branches of the palms, and went forth to meet him, and were crying, `Hosanna, blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord—the king of Israel;'

²² `And ye, therefore, now, indeed, have sorrow; and again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one doth take from you,

¹¹ And not only so, but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation;

³ for we are the circumcision, who by the Spirit are serving God, and glorying in Christ Jesus, and in flesh having no trust,

⁴ Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice;

⁸ whom, not having seen, ye love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, ye are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified,

⁹ After these things I saw, and lo, a great multitude, which to number no one was able, out of all nations, and tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands,

¹⁷ and Jacob hath journeyed to Succoth, and buildeth to himself a house, and for his cattle hath made booths, therefore hath he called the name of the place Succoth.

² and Balaam lifteth up his eyes, and seeth Israel tabernacling, by its tribes, and the Spirit of God is upon him,

⁵ How good have been thy tents, O Jacob, Thy tabernacles, O Israel;

¹⁰ and we dwell in tents, and we hearken, and we do according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us;

¹ For we have known that if our earthly house of the tabernacle may be thrown down, a building from God we have, an house not made with hands—age-during—in the heavens,

¹³ In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted them, and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth, ¹⁴ for those saying such things make manifest that they seek a country; ¹⁵ and if, indeed, they had been mindful of that from which they came forth, they might have had an opportunity to return, ¹⁶ but now they long for a better, that is, an heavenly, wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He did prepare for them a city.

¹⁴ `And it hath been, when thy son asketh thee hereafter, saying, What is this? that thou hast said unto him, By strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;

¹⁰ and Moses commandeth them, saying, `At the end of seven years, in the appointed time, the year of release, in the feast of booths, <sup>11</sup> in the coming in of all Israel to see the face of Jehovah in the place which He chooseth, thou dost proclaim this law before all Israel, in their ears. <sup>12</sup> `Assemble the people, the men, and the women, and the infants, and thy sojourner who is within thy gates, so that they hear, and so that they learn, and have feared Jehovah your God, and observed to do all the words of this law; ¹³ and their sons, who have not known, do hear, and have learned to fear Jehovah your God all the days which ye are living on the ground whither ye are passing over the Jordan to possess it.'

⁵ And He raiseth up a testimony in Jacob, And a law hath placed in Israel, That He commanded our fathers, To make them known to their sons. ⁶ So that a later generation doth know, Sons who are born, do rise and recount to their sons,

²⁴ And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel.

¹ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, ² `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Appointed seasons of Jehovah, which ye proclaim, holy convocations, are these: they are My appointed seasons:

²⁰ for where there are two or three gathered together—to my name, there am I in the midst of them.'
