The Book of Exodus
Chapter 1
001:001 Now these are the names of the children of
Israel, which came
into Egypt;
every man and his household came with Jacob.
001:002 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
001:003 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
001:004 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
001:005 And all the souls that came out of the loins of
Jacob were
seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.
001:006 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all
that
generation.
001:007 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and
increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and
the land was
filled with them.
001:008 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which
knew not
Joseph.
001:009 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people
of the
children of Israel are more and mightier than we:
001:010 Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they
multiply, and
it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they
join also unto
our enemies, and fight against us, and so get
them up out of
the land.
001:011 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to
afflict them
with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure
cities, Pithom
and Raamses.
001:012 But the more they afflicted them, the more they
multiplied and
grew. And they
were grieved because of the children of Israel.
001:013 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to
serve with
rigour:
001:014 And they made their lives bitter with hard
bondage, in morter,
and in brick,
and in all manner of service in the field: all
their service,
wherein they made them serve, was with rigour.
001:015 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew
midwives, of which
the name of the
one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other
Puah:
001:016 And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife
to the Hebrew
women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye
shall kill him:
but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.
001:017 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the
king of Egypt
commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
001:018 And the king of Egypt called for the midwives,
and said unto
them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men
children
alive?
001:019 And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the
Hebrew women
are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are
delivered ere
the midwives come in unto them.
001:020 Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and
the people
multiplied, and waxed very mighty.
001:021 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared
God, that he
made them houses.
001:022 And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying,
Every son that is
born ye shall
cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall
save alive.
002:001 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and
took to wife a
daughter of
Levi.
002:002 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and
when she saw him
that he was a
goodly child, she hid him three months.
002:003 And when she could not longer hide him, she took
for him an
ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and
put the child
therein; and she laid it in the flags by the
river's
brink.
002:004 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would
be done to
him.
002:005 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash
herself at the
river; and her
maidens walked along by the river's side; and
when she saw the
ark among the flags, she sent her maid to
fetch it.
002:006 And when she had opened it, she saw the child:
and, behold,
the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This
is one of the
Hebrews' children.
002:007 Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter,
Shall I go and
call to thee a
nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse
the child for
thee?
002:008 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the
maid went and
called the child's mother.
002:009 And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this
child away,
and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the
women took the
child, and nursed it.
002:010 And the child grew, and she brought him unto
Pharaoh's
daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name
Moses: and she
said, Because I drew him out of the water.
002:011 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses
was grown, that
he went out unto
his brethren, and looked on their burdens:
and he spied an
Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his
brethren.
002:012 And he looked this way and that way, and when he
saw that
there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the
sand.
002:013 And when he went out the second day, behold, two
men of the
Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the
wrong, Wherefore
smitest thou thy fellow?
002:014 And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge
over us?
intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And
Moses feared,
and said, Surely this thing is known.
002:015 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to
slay Moses.
But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land
of Midian: and
he sat down by a well.
002:016 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters:
and they came
and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's
flock.
002:017 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but
Moses stood up
and helped them,
and watered their flock.
002:018 And when they came to Reuel their father, he
said, How is it
that ye are come
so soon to day?
002:019 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of
the hand of the
shepherds, and
also drew water enough for us, and watered the
flock.
002:020 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he?
why is it
that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
002:021 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and
he gave Moses
Zipporah his daughter.
002:022 And she bare him a son, and he called his name
Gershom: for he
said, I have
been a stranger in a strange land.
002:023 And it came to pass in process of time, that the
king of Egypt
died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the
bondage, and
they cried, and their cry came up unto God by
reason of the
bondage.
002:024 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered
his covenant
with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
002:025 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and
God had
respect unto them.
003:001 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in
law, the
priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the
desert, and came
to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.
003:002 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a
flame of fire
out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the
bush burned with
fire, and the bush was not consumed.
003:003 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see
this great
sight, why the bush is not burnt.
003:004 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to
see, God called
unto him out of
the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses.
And he said,
Here am I.
003:005 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy
shoes from off
thy feet, for
the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.
003:006 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father,
the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid
his face; for he
was afraid to look upon God.
003:007 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the
affliction of my
people which are
in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason
of their
taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;
003:008 And I am come down to deliver them out of the
hand of the
Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good
land and a
large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey;
unto the place
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the
Amorites, and
the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the
Jebusites.
003:009 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children
of Israel is
come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression wherewith
the Egyptians
oppress them.
003:010 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto
Pharaoh, that
thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out
of Egypt.
003:011 And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should
go unto
Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel
out of
Egypt?
003:012 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and
this shall be
a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast
brought forth
the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon
this
mountain.
003:013 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come
unto the children
of Israel, and
shall say unto them, The God of your fathers
hath sent me
unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his
name? what shall
I say unto them?
003:014 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he
said, Thus
shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me
unto you.
003:015 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt
thou say unto the
children of
Israel, the LORD God of your fathers, the God of
Abraham, the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me
unto you: this
is my name for ever, and this is my memorial
unto all
generations.
003:016 Go, and gather the elders of Israel together,
and say unto
them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of
Isaac, and of
Jacob, appeared unto me, saying, I have surely
visited you, and
seen that which is done to you in Egypt:
003:017 And I have said, I will bring you up out of the
affliction of
Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and
the Amorites,
and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the
Jebusites, unto
a land flowing with milk and honey.
003:018 And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou
shalt come, thou
and the elders
of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall
say unto him,
The LORD God of the Hebrews hath met with us:
and now let us
go, we beseech thee, three days' journey into
the wilderness,
that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
003:019 And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not
let you go, no,
not by a mighty
hand.
003:020 And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt
with all my
wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that
he will let you
go.
003:021 And I will give this people favour in the sight
of the
Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye
shall not go
empty.
003:022 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour,
and of her that
sojourneth in
her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold,
and raiment: and
ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon
your daughters;
and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
004:001 And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they
will not
believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The
LORD hath not
appeared unto thee.
004:002 And the LORD said unto him, What is that in
thine hand? And he
said, A rod.
004:003 And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast
it on the
ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before
it.
004:004 And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine
hand, and take
it by the tail.
And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and
it became a rod
in his hand:
004:005 That they may believe that the LORD God of their
fathers, the
God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath
appeared unto
thee.
004:006 And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now
thine hand
into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom: and when
he took it out,
behold, his hand was leprous as snow.
004:007 And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom
again. And he put
his hand into
his bosom again; and plucked it out of his
bosom, and,
behold, it was turned again as his other flesh.
004:008 And it shall come to pass, if they will not
believe thee,
neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will
believe the
voice of the latter sign.
004:009 And it shall come to pass, if they will not
believe also these
two signs,
neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt
take of the
water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land:
and the water
which thou takest out of the river shall become
blood upon the
dry land.
004:010 And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am
not eloquent,
neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy
servant: but I
am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.
004:011 And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's
mouth? or who
maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have
not I the
LORD?
004:012 Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth,
and teach thee
what thou shalt
say.
004:013 And he said, O my LORD, send, I pray thee, by
the hand of him
whom thou wilt
send.
004:014 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against
Moses, and he
said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can
speak well. And
also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee:
and when he
seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.
004:015 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in
his mouth: and
I will be with
thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach
you what ye
shall do.
004:016 And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people:
and he shall
be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou
shalt be to him
instead of God.
004:017 And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand,
wherewith thou
shalt do
signs.
004:018 And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father
in law, and
said unto him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my
brethren which
are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet
alive. And
Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
004:019 And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go,
return into Egypt:
for all the men
are dead which sought thy life.
004:020 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set
them upon an
ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the
rod of God in
his hand.
004:021 And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to
return into
Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh,
which I have put
in thine hand: but I will harden his heart,
that he shall
not let the people go.
004:022 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the
LORD, Israel
is my son, even my firstborn:
004:023 And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may
serve me: and
if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son,
even thy
firstborn.
004:024 And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that
the LORD met
him, and sought to kill him.
004:025 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off
the foreskin of
her son, and
cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody
husband art thou
to me.
004:026 So he let him go: then she said, A bloody
husband thou art,
because of the
circumcision.
004:027 And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the
wilderness to meet
Moses. And he
went, and met him in the mount of God, and
kissed him.
004:028 And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD
who had sent
him, and all the signs which he had commanded him.
004:029 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together
all the elders
of the children
of Israel:
004:030 And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had
spoken unto
Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.
004:031 And the people believed: and when they heard
that the LORD had
visited the
children of Israel, and that he had looked upon
their
affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.
005:001 And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told
Pharaoh, Thus
saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may
hold a feast
unto me in the wilderness.
005:002 And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should
obey his
voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, neither will I
let Israel
go.
005:003 And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met
with us: let us
go, we pray
thee, three days' journey into the desert, and
sacrifice unto
the LORD our God; lest he fall upon us with
pestilence, or
with the sword.
005:004 And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore
do ye, Moses
and Aaron, let the people from their works? get you unto your
burdens.
005:005 And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land
now are many,
and ye make them rest from their burdens.
005:006 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the
taskmasters of the
people, and
their officers, saying,
005:007 Ye shall no more give the people straw to make
brick, as
heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.
005:008 And the tale of the bricks, which they did make
heretofore, ye
shall lay upon
them; ye shall not diminish ought thereof: for
they be idle;
therefore they cry, saying, Let us go and
sacrifice to our
God.
005:009 Let there more work be laid upon the men, that
they may labour
therein; and let
them not regard vain words.
005:010 And the taskmasters of the people went out, and
their
officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith
Pharaoh, I will
not give you straw.
005:011 Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet
not ought of
your work shall be diminished.
005:012 So the people were scattered abroad throughout
all the land of
Egypt to gather
stubble instead of straw.
005:013 And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil
your works,
your daily tasks, as when there was straw.
005:014 And the officers of the children of Israel,
which Pharaoh's
taskmasters had
set over them, were beaten, and demanded,
Wherefore have
ye not fulfilled your task in making brick both
yesterday and to
day, as heretofore?
005:015 Then the officers of the children of Israel came
and cried
unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy
servants?
005:016 There is no straw given unto thy servants, and
they say to us,
Make brick: and,
behold, thy servants are beaten; but the
fault is in
thine own people.
005:017 But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore
ye say, Let
us go and do sacrifice to the LORD.
005:018 Go therefore now, and work; for there shall no
straw be given
you, yet shall
ye deliver the tale of bricks.
005:019 And the officers of the children of Israel did
see that they
were in evil case, after it was said, Ye shall not minish
ought from your
bricks of your daily task.
005:020 And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the
way, as they
came forth from Pharaoh:
005:021 And they said unto them, The LORD look upon you,
and judge;
because ye have made our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of
Pharaoh, and in
the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in
their hand to
slay us.
005:022 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said,
LORD, wherefore
hast thou so
evil entreated this people? why is it that thou
hast sent
me?
005:023 For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy
name, he hath done
evil to this
people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at
all.
006:001 Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou
see what I will
do to Pharaoh:
for with a strong hand shall he let them go,
and with a
strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.
006:002 And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD:
006:003 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and
unto Jacob, by
the name of God
Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not
known to
them.
006:004 And I have also established my covenant with
them, to give
them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein
they were
strangers.
006:005 And I have also heard the groaning of the
children of Israel,
whom the
Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my
covenant.
006:006 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am
the LORD, and
I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians,
and I will rid
you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you
with a stretched
out arm, and with great judgments:
006:007 And I will take you to me for a people, and I
will be to you a
God: and ye
shall know that I am the LORD your God, which
bringeth you out
from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
006:008 And I will bring you in unto the land,
concerning the which I
did swear to
give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I
will give it you
for an heritage: I am the LORD.
006:009 And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel:
but they
hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel
bondage.
006:010 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
006:011 Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he
let the
children of Israel go out of his land.
006:012 And Moses spake before the LORD, saying, Behold,
the children
of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh
hear me, who am
of uncircumcised lips?
006:013 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron,
and gave them a
charge unto the
children of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of
Egypt, to bring
the children of Israel out of the land of
Egypt.
006:014 These be the heads of their fathers' houses: The
sons of
Reuben the firstborn of Israel; Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and
Carmi: these be
the families of Reuben.
006:015 And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and Jamin, and
Ohad, and
Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitish woman:
these are the
families of Simeon.
006:016 And these are the names of the sons of Levi
according to their
generations;
Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari: and the years of
the life of Levi
were an hundred thirty and seven years.
006:017 The sons of Gershon; Libni, and Shimi, according
to their
families.
006:018 And the sons of Kohath; Amram, and Izhar, and
Hebron, and
Uzziel: and the years of the life of Kohath were an hundred
thirty and three
years.
006:019 And the sons of Merari; Mahali and Mushi: these
are the
families of Levi according to their generations.
006:020 And Amram took him Jochebed his father's sister
to wife; and
she bare him Aaron and Moses: and the years of the life of
Amram were an
hundred and thirty and seven years.
006:021 And the sons of Izhar; Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri.
006:022 And the sons of Uzziel; Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Zithri.
006:023 And Aaron took him Elisheba, daughter of
Amminadab, sister of
Naashon, to
wife; and she bare him Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar,
and Ithamar.
006:024 And the sons of Korah; Assir, and Elkanah, and
Abiasaph: these
are the families
of the Korhites.
006:025 And Eleazar Aaron's son took him one of the
daughters of
Putiel to wife; and she bare him Phinehas: these are the heads
of the fathers
of the Levites according to their families.
006:026 These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom the LORD
said, Bring
out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to
their
armies.
006:027 These are they which spake to Pharaoh king of
Egypt, to bring
out the children
of Israel from Egypt: these are that Moses
and Aaron.
006:028 And it came to pass on the day when the LORD
spake unto Moses
in the land of
Egypt,
006:029 That the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, I am the
LORD: speak
thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say unto thee.
006:030 And Moses said before the LORD, Behold, I am of
uncircumcised
lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?
007:001 And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made
thee a god to
Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
007:002 Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and
Aaron thy
brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of
Israel out of
his land.
007:003 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply
my signs and
my wonders in the land of Egypt.
007:004 But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I
may lay my hand
upon Egypt, and
bring forth mine armies, and my people the
children of
Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great
judgments.
007:005 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD,
when I
stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children
of Israel from
among them.
007:006 And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded
them, so did
they.
007:007 And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron
fourscore and
three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.
007:008 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
007:009 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew
a miracle for
you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it
before Pharaoh,
and it shall become a serpent.
007:010 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and
they did so as
the LORD had
commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before
Pharaoh, and
before his servants, and it became a serpent.
007:011 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the
sorcerers: now
the magicians of
Egypt, they also did in like manner with
their
enchantments.
007:012 For they cast down every man his rod, and they
became
serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
007:013 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he
hearkened not unto
them; as the
LORD had said.
007:014 And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is
hardened, he
refuseth to let the people go.
007:015 Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he
goeth out unto
the water; and
thou shalt stand by the river's brink against
he come; and the
rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou
take in thine
hand.
007:016 And thou shalt say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath
sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may
serve me in the
wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou
wouldest not
hear.
007:017 Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know
that I am the
LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand
upon the waters
which are in the river, and they shall be
turned to
blood.
007:018 And the fish that is in the river shall die, and
the river
shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the
water of the
river.
007:019 And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Take thy rod,
and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon
their streams,
upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and
upon all their
pools of water, that they may become blood; and
that there may
be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both
in vessels of
wood, and in vessels of stone.
007:020 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD
commanded; and he
lifted up the
rod, and smote the waters that were in the
river, in the
sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his
servants; and
all the waters that were in the river were
turned to
blood.
007:021 And the fish that was in the river died; and the
river stank,
and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river;
and there was
blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
007:022 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their
enchantments: and
Pharaoh's heart
was hardened, neither did he hearken unto
them; as the
LORD had said.
007:023 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house,
neither did he set
his heart to
this also.
007:024 And all the Egyptians digged round about the
river for water
to drink; for
they could not drink of the water of the river.
007:025 And seven days were fulfilled, after that the
LORD had smitten
the river.
008:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh,
and say unto
him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may
serve me.
008:002 And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I
will smite all
thy borders with
frogs:
008:003 And the river shall bring forth frogs
abundantly, which shall
go up and come
into thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and
upon thy bed,
and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy
people, and into
thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
008:004 And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and
upon thy people,
and upon all thy
servants.
008:005 And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Stretch forth
thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers, and
over the ponds,
and cause frogs to come up upon the land of
Egypt.
008:006 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters
of Egypt; and
the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
008:007 And the magicians did so with their
enchantments, and brought
up frogs upon
the land of Egypt.
008:008 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and
said, Intreat the
LORD, that he
may take away the frogs from me, and from my
people; and I
will let the people go, that they may do
sacrifice unto
the LORD.
008:009 And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when
shall I
intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to
destroy the
frogs from thee and thy houses, that they may
remain in the
river only?
008:010 And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it
according to thy
word: that thou
mayest know that there is none like unto the
LORD our
God.
008:011 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from
thy houses, and
from thy
servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in
the river
only.
008:012 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and
Moses cried
unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought
against
Pharaoh.
008:013 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses;
and the frogs
died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the
fields.
008:014 And they gathered them together upon heaps: and
the land
stank.
008:015 But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he
hardened his
heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
008:016 And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron,
Stretch out thy
rod, and smite
the dust of the land, that it may become lice
throughout all
the land of Egypt.
008:017 And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his
hand with his
rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in
man, and in
beast; all the dust of the land became lice
throughout all
the land of Egypt.
008:018 And the magicians did so with their enchantments
to bring
forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man,
and upon
beast.
008:019 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is
the finger of
God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not
unto them; as
the LORD had said.
008:020 And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in
the morning,
and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water;
and say unto
him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that
they may serve
me.
008:021 Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold,
I will send
swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy
people, and into
thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians
shall be full of
swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon
they are.
008:022 And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen,
in which my
people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the
end thou mayest
know that I am the LORD in the midst of the
earth.
008:023 And I will put a division between my people and
thy people: to
morrow shall
this sign be.
008:024 And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous
swarm of flies
into the house
of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and
into all the
land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason
of the swarm of
flies.
008:025 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and
said, Go ye,
sacrifice to your God in the land.
008:026 And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we
shall
sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our
God: lo, shall
we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians
before their
eyes, and will they not stone us?
008:027 We will go three days' journey into the
wilderness, and
sacrifice to the
LORD our God, as he shall command us.
008:028 And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may
sacrifice to
the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very
far away:
intreat for me.
008:029 And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and
I will intreat
the LORD that
the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh,
from his
servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not
Pharaoh deal
deceitfully any more in not letting the people go
to sacrifice to
the LORD.
008:030 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD.
008:031 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses;
and he
removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants,
and from his
people; there remained not one.
008:032 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time
also, neither
would he let the people go.
009:001 Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto
Pharaoh, and tell
him, Thus saith
the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go,
that they may
serve me.
009:002 For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,
009:003 Behold, the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle
which is in
the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels,
upon the oxen,
and upon the sheep: there shall be a very
grievous
murrain.
009:004 And the LORD shall sever between the cattle of
Israel and the
cattle of Egypt:
and there shall nothing die of all that is
the children's
of Israel.
009:005 And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To
morrow the LORD
shall do this
thing in the land.
009:006 And the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and
all the cattle
of Egypt died:
but of the cattle of the children of Israel
died not
one.
009:007 And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not one
of the cattle
of the Israelites dead. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened,
and he did not
let the people go.
009:008 And the LORD said unto Moses and unto Aaron,
Take to you
handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it
toward the
heaven in the sight of Pharaoh.
009:009 And it shall become small dust in all the land
of Egypt, and
shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon
beast,
throughout all the land of Egypt.
009:010 And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood
before Pharaoh;
and Moses
sprinkled it up toward heaven; and it became a boil
breaking forth
with blains upon man, and upon beast.
009:011 And the magicians could not stand before Moses
because of the
boils; for the
boil was upon the magicians, and upon all the
Egyptians.
009:012 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and
he hearkened
not unto them; as the LORD had spoken unto Moses.
009:013 And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in
the morning,
and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the
LORD God of the
Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve
me.
009:014 For I will at this time send all my plagues upon
thine heart,
and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest
know that there
is none like me in all the earth.
009:015 For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may
smite thee and
thy people with
pestilence; and thou shalt be cut off from the
earth.
009:016 And in very deed for this cause have I raised
thee up, for to
shew in thee my
power; and that my name may be declared
throughout all
the earth.
009:017 As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people,
that thou wilt
not let them
go?
009:018 Behold, to morrow about this time I will cause
it to rain a
very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the
foundation
thereof even until now.
009:019 Send therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and
all that thou
hast in the field; for upon every man and beast which shall be
found in the
field, and shall not be brought home, the hail
shall come down
upon them, and they shall die.
009:020 He that feared the word of the LORD among the
servants of
Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses:
009:021 And he that regarded not the word of the LORD
left his
servants and his cattle in the field.
009:022 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth
thine hand toward
heaven, that
there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon
man, and upon
beast, and upon every herb of the field,
throughout the
land of Egypt.
009:023 And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven:
and the LORD
sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground;
and the LORD
rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
009:024 So there was hail, and fire mingled with the
hail, very
grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of
Egypt since it
became a nation.
009:025 And the hail smote throughout all the land of
Egypt all that
was in the
field, both man and beast; and the hail smote every
herb of the
field, and brake every tree of the field.
009:026 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children
of Israel were,
was there no
hail.
009:027 And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and
Aaron, and said
unto them, I
have sinned this time: the LORD is righteous, and
I and my people
are wicked.
009:028 Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there
be no more
mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye
shall stay no
longer.
009:029 And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone
out of the city,
I will spread
abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder
shall cease,
neither shall there be any more hail; that thou
mayest know how
that the earth is the LORD's.
009:030 But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye
will not yet
fear the LORD God.
009:031 And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the
barley was in
the ear, and the flax was bolled.
009:032 But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for
they were not
grown up.
009:033 And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and
spread abroad
his hands unto the LORD: and the thunders and hail ceased, and
the rain was not
poured upon the earth.
009:034 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail
and the
thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his
heart, he and
his servants.
009:035 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, neither
would he let
the children of Israel go; as the LORD had spoken by Moses.
010:001 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto
Pharaoh: for I have
hardened his
heart, and the heart of his servants, that I
might shew these
my signs before him:
010:002 And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy
son, and of thy
son's son, what
things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs
which I have
done among them; that ye may know how that I am
the LORD.
010:003 And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and
said unto him,
Thus saith the
LORD God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou
refuse to humble
thyself before me? let my people go, that
they may serve
me.
010:004 Else, if thou refuse to let my people go,
behold, to morrow
will I bring the
locusts into thy coast:
010:005 And they shall cover the face of the earth, that
one cannot be
able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that
which is
escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and
shall eat every
tree which groweth for you out of the field:
010:006 And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses
of all thy
servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither
thy fathers, nor
thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day
that they were
upon the earth unto this day. And he turned
himself, and
went out from Pharaoh.
010:007 And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long
shall this man
be a snare unto
us? let the men go, that they may serve the
LORD their God:
knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
010:008 And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto
Pharaoh: and he
said unto them,
Go, serve the LORD your God: but who are they
that shall
go?
010:009 And Moses said, We will go with our young and
with our old,
with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with
our herds will
we go; for we must hold a feast unto the LORD.
010:010 And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with
you, as I will
let you go, and
your little ones: look to it; for evil is
before you.
010:011 Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the
LORD; for that
ye did desire.
And they were driven out from Pharaoh's
presence.
010:012 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand over the
land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the
land of Egypt,
and eat every herb of the land, even all that
the hail hath
left.
010:013 And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land
of Egypt, and
the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and
all that night;
and when it was morning, the east wind brought
the locusts.
010:014 And the locust went up over all the land of
Egypt, and rested
in all the
coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before
them there were
no such locusts as they, neither after them
shall be
such.
010:015 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so
that the land
was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all
the fruit of the
trees which the hail had left: and there
remained not any
green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of
the field,
through all the land of Egypt.
010:016 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in
haste; and he said,
I have sinned
against the LORD your God, and against you.
010:017 Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only
this once, and
intreat the LORD
your God, that he may take away from me this
death only.
010:018 And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD.
010:019 And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind,
which took away
the locusts, and
cast them into the Red sea; there remained
not one locust
in all the coasts of Egypt.
010:020 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that
he would not
let the children of Israel go.
010:021 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand toward
heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt,
even darkness
which may be felt.
010:022 And Moses stretched forth his hand toward
heaven; and there
was a thick
darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
010:023 They saw not one another, neither rose any from
his place for
three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their
dwellings.
010:024 And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye,
serve the
LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your
little ones also
go with you.
010:025 And Moses said, Thou must give us also
sacrifices and burnt
offerings, that
we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.
010:026 Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall
not an hoof be
left behind; for
thereof must we take to serve the LORD our
God; and we know
not with what we must serve the LORD, until
we come
thither.
010:027 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he
would not let
them go.
010:028 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me,
take heed to
thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my
face thou shalt
die.
010:029 And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will
see thy face
again no more.
011:001 And the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will I bring
one plague more
upon Pharaoh,
and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go
hence: when he
shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you
out hence
altogether.
011:002 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let
every man borrow
of his
neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of
silver and
jewels of gold.
011:003 And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight
of the
Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land
of Egypt, in the
sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight
of the
people.
011:004 And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About
midnight will I go
out into the
midst of Egypt:
011:005 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall
die, from the
first born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto
the firstborn of
the maidservant that is behind the mill; and
all the
firstborn of beasts.
011:006 And there shall be a great cry throughout all
the land of
Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it
any more.
011:007 But against any of the children of Israel shall
not a dog move
his tongue,
against man or beast: that ye may know how that
the LORD doth
put a difference between the Egyptians and
Israel.
011:008 And all these thy servants shall come down unto
me, and bow
down themselves unto me, saying, Get thee out, and all the
people that
follow thee: and after that I will go out. And he
went out from
Pharaoh in a great anger.
011:009 And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not
hearken unto
you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.
011:010 And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before
Pharaoh: and
the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let
the children of
Israel go out of his land.
012:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the
land of Egypt
saying,
012:002 This month shall be unto you the beginning of
months: it shall
be the first
month of the year to you.
012:003 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel,
saying, In the
tenth day of
this month they shall take to them every man a
lamb, according
to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an
house:
012:004 And if the household be too little for the lamb,
let him and
his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the
number of the
souls; every man according to his eating shall
make your count
for the lamb.
012:005 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of
the first year:
ye shall take it
out from the sheep, or from the goats:
012:006 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day
of the same
month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel
shall kill it in
the evening.
012:007 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it
on the two
side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein
they shall eat
it.
012:008 And they shall eat the flesh in that night,
roast with fire,
and unleavened
bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
012:009 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water,
but roast
with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance
thereof.
012:010 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the
morning; and
that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn
with fire.
012:011 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins
girded, your shoes
on your feet,
and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it
in haste: it is
the LORD's passover.
012:012 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this
night, and will
smite all the
firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and
beast; and
against all the gods of Egypt I will execute
judgment: I am
the LORD.
012:013 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon
the houses
where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you,
and the plague
shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I
smite the land
of Egypt.
012:014 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial;
and ye shall
keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye
shall keep it a
feast by an ordinance for ever.
012:015 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even
the first day
ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever
eateth leavened
bread from the first day until the seventh
day, that soul
shall be cut off from Israel.
012:016 And in the first day there shall be an holy
convocation, and
in the seventh
day there shall be an holy convocation to you;
no manner of
work shall be done in them, save that which every
man must eat,
that only may be done of you.
012:017 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened
bread; for in
this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land
of Egypt:
therefore shall ye observe this day in your
generations by
an ordinance for ever.
012:018 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the
month at
even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and
twentieth day of
the month at even.
012:019 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in
your houses: for
whosoever eateth
that which is leavened, even that soul shall
be cut off from
the congregation of Israel, whether he be a
stranger, or
born in the land.
012:020 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your
habitations shall
ye eat
unleavened bread.
012:021 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel,
and said unto
them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families,
and kill the
passover.
012:022 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it
in the blood
that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side
posts with the
blood that is in the bason; and none of you
shall go out at
the door of his house until the morning.
012:023 For the LORD will pass through to smite the
Egyptians; and
when he seeth
the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side
posts, the LORD
will pass over the door, and will not suffer
the destroyer to
come in unto your houses to smite you.
012:024 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance
to thee and
to thy sons for ever.
012:025 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to
the land which
the LORD will
give you, according as he hath promised, that ye
shall keep this
service.
012:026 And it shall come to pass, when your children
shall say unto
you, What mean
ye by this service?
012:027 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the
LORD's passover,
who passed over
the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt,
when he smote
the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the
people bowed the
head and worshipped.
012:028 And the children of Israel went away, and did as
the LORD had
commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
012:029 And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD
smote all the
firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh
that sat on his
throne unto the firstborn of the captive that
was in the
dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.
012:030 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all
his servants,
and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for
there was not a
house where there was not one dead.
012:031 And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and
said, Rise up,
and get you
forth from among my people, both ye and the
children of
Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said.
012:032 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have
said, and be
gone; and bless me also.
012:033 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people,
that they might
send them out of
the land in haste; for they said, We be all
dead men.
012:034 And the people took their dough before it was
leavened, their
kneadingtroughs
being bound up in their clothes upon their
shoulders.
012:035 And the children of Israel did according to the
word of Moses;
and they
borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and
jewels of gold,
and raiment:
012:036 And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight
of the
Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they
required. And
they spoiled the Egyptians.
012:037 And the children of Israel journeyed from
Rameses to Succoth,
about six
hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside
children.
012:038 And a mixed multitude went up also with them;
and flocks, and
herds, even very
much cattle.
012:039 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough
which they
brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because
they were thrust
out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither
had they
prepared for themselves any victual.
012:040 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel,
who dwelt in
Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
012:041 And it came to pass at the end of the four
hundred and thirty
years, even the
selfsame day it came to pass, that all the
hosts of the
LORD went out from the land of Egypt.
012:042 It is a night to be much observed unto the LORD
for bringing
them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the
LORD to be
observed of all the children of Israel in their
generations.
012:043 And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is
the ordinance
of the passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof:
012:044 But every man's servant that is bought for
money, when thou
hast circumcised
him, then shall he eat thereof.
012:045 A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof.
012:046 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not
carry forth
ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye
break a bone
thereof.
012:047 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.
012:048 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and
will keep the
passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and
then let him
come near and keep it; and he shall be as one
that is born in
the land: for no uncircumcised person shall
eat thereof.
012:049 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and
unto the
stranger that sojourneth among you.
012:050 Thus did all the children of Israel; as the LORD
commanded
Moses and Aaron, so did they.
012:051 And it came to pass the selfsame day, that the
LORD did bring
the children of
Israel out of the land of Egypt by their
armies.
013:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
013:002 Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever
openeth the
womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast:
it is mine.
013:003 And Moses said unto the people, Remember this
day, in which ye
came out from
Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by
strength of hand
the LORD brought you out from this place:
there shall no
leavened bread be eaten.
013:004 This day came ye out in the month Abib.
013:005 And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee
into the land
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the
Hivites, and the
Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers to
give thee, a
land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt
keep this
service in this month.
013:006 Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and
in the seventh
day shall be a
feast to the LORD.
013:007 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and
there shall no
leavened bread
be seen with thee, neither shall there be
leaven seen with
thee in all thy quarters.
013:008 And thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying,
This is done
because of that which the LORD did unto me when I came forth
out of
Egypt.
013:009 And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine
hand, and for
a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in
thy mouth: for
with a strong hand hath the LORD brought thee
out of
Egypt.
013:010 Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his
season from
year to year.
013:011 And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee
into the land
of the Canaanites, as he sware unto thee and to thy fathers,
and shall give
it thee,
013:012 That thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that
openeth the
matrix, and every firstling that cometh of a beast which thou
hast; the males
shall be the LORD's.
013:013 And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem
with a lamb;
and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break his
neck: and all
the firstborn of man among thy children shalt
thou redeem.
013:014 And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time
to come,
saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him, By
strength of hand
the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the
house of
bondage:
013:015 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly
let us go, that
the LORD slew
all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the
firstborn of
man, and the firstborn of beast: therefore I
sacrifice to the
LORD all that openeth the matrix, being
males; but all
the firstborn of my children I redeem.
013:016 And it shall be for a token upon thine hand, and
for frontlets
between thine eyes: for by strength of hand the LORD brought
us forth out of
Egypt.
013:017 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the
people go, that
God led them not
through the way of the land of the
Philistines,
although that was near; for God said, Lest
peradventure the
people repent when they see war, and they
return to
Egypt:
013:018 But God led the people about, through the way of
the
wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up
harnessed out of
the land of Egypt.
013:019 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for
he had
straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely
visit you; and
ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.
013:020 And they took their journey from Succoth, and
encamped in
Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
013:021 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar
of a cloud,
to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to
give them light;
to go by day and night:
013:022 He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day,
nor the
pillar of fire by night, from before the people.
014:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
014:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they
turn and encamp
before
Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against
Baalzephon:
before it shall ye encamp by the sea.
014:003 For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel,
They are
entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.
014:004 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall
follow after
them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his
host; that the
Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. And they
did so.
014:005 And it was told the king of Egypt that the
people fled: and
the heart of
Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against
the people, and
they said, Why have we done this, that we have
let Israel go
from serving us?
014:006 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:
014:007 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all
the chariots
of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
014:008 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king
of Egypt, and
he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of
Israel went out
with an high hand.
014:009 But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the
horses and
chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and
overtook them
encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before
Baalzephon.
014:010 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of
Israel lifted up
their eyes, and,
behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and
they were sore
afraid: and the children of Israel cried out
unto the
LORD.
014:011 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no
graves in
Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness?
wherefore hast
thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out
of Egypt?
014:012 Is not this the word that we did tell thee in
Egypt, saying,
Let us alone,
that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been
better for us to
serve the Egyptians, than that we should die
in the
wilderness.
014:013 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not,
stand still, and
see the
salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to
day: for the
Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see
them again no
more for ever.
014:014 The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
014:015 And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest
thou unto me?
speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:
014:016 But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine
hand over the
sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry
ground through
the midst of the sea.
014:017 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the
Egyptians, and
they shall
follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh,
and upon all his
host, upon his chariots, and upon his
horsemen.
014:018 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD,
when I have
gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his
horsemen.
014:019 And the angel of God, which went before the camp
of Israel,
removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went
from before
their face, and stood behind them:
014:020 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians
and the camp of
Israel; and it
was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave
light by night
to these: so that the one came not near the
other all the
night.
014:021 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea;
and the LORD
caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that
night, and made
the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
014:022 And the children of Israel went into the midst
of the sea upon
the dry ground:
and the waters were a wall unto them on their
right hand, and
on their left.
014:023 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after
them to the midst
of the sea, even
all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his
horsemen.
014:024 And it came to pass, that in the morning watch
the LORD looked
unto the host of
the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and
of the cloud,
and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
014:025 And took off their chariot wheels, that they
drave them
heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face
of Israel; for
the LORD fighteth for them against the
Egyptians.
014:026 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine
hand over the
sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon
their chariots,
and upon their horsemen.
014:027 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea,
and the sea
returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the
Egyptians fled
against it; and the LORD overthrew the
Egyptians in the
midst of the sea.
014:028 And the waters returned, and covered the
chariots, and the
horsemen, and
all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea
after them;
there remained not so much as one of them.
014:029 But the children of Israel walked upon dry land
in the midst
of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their
right hand, and
on their left.
014:030 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the
hand of the
Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea
shore.
014:031 And Israel saw that great work which the LORD
did upon the
Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the
LORD, and his
servant Moses.
015:001 Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this
song unto the
LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he
hath triumphed
gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he
thrown into the
sea.
015:002 The LORD is my strength and song, and he is
become my
salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation;
my father's God,
and I will exalt him.
015:003 The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.
015:004 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast
into the sea: his
chosen captains
also are drowned in the Red sea.
015:005 The depths have covered them: they sank into the
bottom as a
stone.
015:006 Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in
power: thy right
hand, O LORD,
hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
015:007 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou
hast overthrown
them that rose
up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath,
which consumed
them as stubble.
015:008 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters
were gathered
together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths
were congealed
in the heart of the sea.
015:009 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake,
I will divide
the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw
my sword, my
hand shall destroy them.
015:010 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered
them: they sank
as lead in the
mighty waters.
015:011 Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods?
who is like
thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
015:012 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
015:013 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people
which thou hast
redeemed: thou
hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy
habitation.
015:014 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow
shall take hold
on the
inhabitants of Palestina.
015:015 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the
mighty men of
Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants
of Canaan shall
melt away.
015:016 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the
greatness of thine
arm they shall
be as still as a stone; till thy people pass
over, O LORD,
till the people pass over, which thou hast
purchased.
015:017 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the
mountain of
thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made
for thee to
dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O LORD, which thy
hands have
established.
015:018 The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.
015:019 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his
chariots and with
his horsemen
into the sea, and the LORD brought again the
waters of the
sea upon them; but the children of Israel went
on dry land in
the midst of the sea.
015:020 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron,
took a timbrel
in her hand; and
all the women went out after her with
timbrels and
with dances.
015:021 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD,
for he hath
triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown
into the
sea.
015:022 So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and
they went out
into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the
wilderness, and
found no water.
015:023 And when they came to Marah, they could not
drink of the
waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of
it was called
Marah.
015:024 And the people murmured against Moses, saying,
What shall we
drink?
015:025 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed
him a tree,
which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made
sweet: there he
made for them a statute and an ordinance, and
there he proved
them,
015:026 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the
voice of the
LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight,
and wilt give
ear to his commandments, and keep all his
statutes, I will
put none of these diseases upon thee, which I
have brought
upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that
healeth
thee.
015:027 And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells
of water, and
threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the
waters.
016:001 And they took their journey from Elim, and all
the
congregation of the children of Israel came unto the
wilderness of
Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the
fifteenth day of
the second month after their departing out of
the land of
Egypt.
016:002 And the whole congregation of the children of
Israel murmured
against Moses
and Aaron in the wilderness:
016:003 And the children of Israel said unto them, Would
to God we had
died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat
by the flesh
pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for
ye have brought
us forth into this wilderness, to kill this
whole assembly
with hunger.
016:004 Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will
rain bread from
heaven for you;
and the people shall go out and gather a
certain rate
every day, that I may prove them, whether they
will walk in my
law, or no.
016:005 And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day
they shall
prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be twice as
much as they
gather daily.
016:006 And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children
of Israel, At
even, then ye shall know that the LORD hath brought you out
from the land of
Egypt:
016:007 And in the morning, then ye shall see the glory
of the LORD;
for that he heareth your murmurings against the LORD: and what
are we, that ye
murmur against us?
016:008 And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD
shall give you in
the evening
flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the
full; for that
the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye
murmur against
him: and what are we? your murmurings are not
against us, but
against the LORD.
016:009 And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the
congregation of
the children of
Israel, Come near before the LORD: for he hath
heard your
murmurings.
016:010 And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the
whole
congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked
toward the
wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD
appeared in the
cloud.
016:011 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
016:012 I have heard the murmurings of the children of
Israel: speak
unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the
morning ye shall
be filled with bread; and ye shall know that
I am the LORD
your God.
016:013 And it came to pass, that at even the quails
came up, and
covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about
the host.
016:014 And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold,
upon the face
of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as
the hoar frost
on the ground.
016:015 And when the children of Israel saw it, they
said one to
another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses
said unto them,
This is the bread which the LORD hath given
you to eat.
016:016 This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded,
Gather of it
every man according to his eating, an omer for every man,
according to the
number of your persons; take ye every man for
them which are
in his tents.
016:017 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered,
some more,
some less.
016:018 And when they did mete it with an omer, he that
gathered much
had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack;
they gathered
every man according to his eating.
016:019 And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.
016:020 Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses;
but some of
them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and
stank: and Moses
was wroth with them.
016:021 And they gathered it every morning, every man
according to his
eating: and when
the sun waxed hot, it melted.
016:022 And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they
gathered twice
as much bread,
two omers for one man: and all the rulers of
the congregation
came and told Moses.
016:023 And he said unto them, This is that which the
LORD hath said,
To morrow is the
rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake
that which ye
will bake to day, and seethe that ye will
seethe; and that
which remaineth over lay up for you to be
kept until the
morning.
016:024 And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses
bade: and it
did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.
016:025 And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a
sabbath unto
the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the field.
016:026 Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh
day, which is
the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
016:027 And it came to pass, that there went out some of
the people on
the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.
016:028 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye
to keep my
commandments and my laws?
016:029 See, for that the LORD hath given you the
sabbath, therefore
he giveth you on
the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye
every man in his
place, let no man go out of his place on the
seventh day.
016:030 So the people rested on the seventh day.
016:031 And the house of Israel called the name thereof
Manna: and it
was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like
wafers made with
honey.
016:032 And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD
commandeth,
Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they
may see the
bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness,
when I brought
you forth from the land of Egypt.
016:033 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put
an omer full of
manna therein,
and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for
your
generations.
016:034 As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up
before the
Testimony, to be kept.
016:035 And the children of Israel did eat manna forty
years, until
they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they
came unto the
borders of the land of Canaan.
016:036 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
017:001 And all the congregation of the children of
Israel journeyed
from the
wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to
the commandment
of the LORD, and pitched in Rephidim: and
there was no
water for the people to drink.
017:002 Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and
said, Give us
water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide
ye with me?
wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?
017:003 And the people thirsted there for water; and the
people
murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou
hast brought us
up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children
and our cattle
with thirst?
017:004 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What
shall I do unto
this people?
they be almost ready to stone me.
017:005 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the
people, and
take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith
thou smotest the
river, take in thine hand, and go.
017:006 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the
rock in Horeb;
and thou shalt
smite the rock, and there shall come water out
of it, that the
people may drink. And Moses did so in the
sight of the
elders of Israel.
017:007 And he called the name of the place Massah, and
Meribah,
because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because
they tempted the
LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?
017:008 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
017:009 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men,
and go out,
fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the
hill with the
rod of God in mine hand.
017:010 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and
fought with
Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the
hill.
017:011 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his
hand, that Israel
prevailed: and
when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
017:012 But Moses hands were heavy; and they took a
stone, and put it
under him, and
he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his
hands, the one
on the one side, and the other on the other
side; and his
hands were steady until the going down of the
sun.
017:013 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people
with the edge of
the sword.
017:014 And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a
memorial in a
book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will
utterly put out
the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
017:015 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of
it
Jehovahnissi:
017:016 For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that
the LORD will
have war with Amalek from generation to generation.
018:001 When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father
in law, heard
of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people,
and that the
LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt;
018:002 Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took
Zipporah, Moses' wife,
after he had
sent her back,
018:003 And her two sons; of which the name of the one
was Gershom;
for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land:
018:004 And the name of the other was Eliezer; for the
God of my
father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me from the
sword of
Pharaoh:
018:005 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his
sons and his
wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the
mount of
God:
018:006 And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law
Jethro am come
unto thee, and
thy wife, and her two sons with her.
018:007 And Moses went out to meet his father in law,
and did
obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other of their
welfare; and
they came into the tent.
018:008 And Moses told his father in law all that the
LORD had done
unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, and all
the travail that
had come upon them by the way, and how the
LORD delivered
them.
018:009 And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which
the LORD had
done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the
Egyptians.
018:010 And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath
delivered you
out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of
Pharaoh, who
hath delivered the people from under the hand of
the
Egyptians.
018:011 Now I know that the LORD is greater than all
gods: for in the
thing wherein
they dealt proudly he was above them.
018:012 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt
offering and
sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of
Israel, to eat
bread with Moses' father in law before God.
018:013 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses
sat to judge the
people: and the
people stood by Moses from the morning unto
the evening.
018:014 And when Moses' father in law saw all that he
did to the
people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to the
people? why
sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people
stand by thee
from morning unto even?
018:015 And Moses said unto his father in law, Because
the people come
unto me to
enquire of God:
018:016 When they have a matter, they come unto me; and
I judge
between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes
of God, and his
laws.
018:017 And Moses' father in law said unto him, The
thing that thou
doest is not
good.
018:018 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this
people that is
with thee: for
this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not
able to perform
it thyself alone.
018:019 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee
counsel, and God
shall be with
thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that
thou mayest
bring the causes unto God:
018:020 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws,
and shalt shew
them the way
wherein they must walk, and the work that they
must do.
018:021 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the
people able men,
such as fear
God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place
such over them,
to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of
hundreds, rulers
of fifties, and rulers of tens:
018:022 And let them judge the people at all seasons:
and it shall be,
that every great
matter they shall bring unto thee, but every
small matter
they shall judge: so shall it be easier for
thyself, and
they shall bear the burden with thee.
018:023 If thou shalt do this thing, and God command
thee so, then
thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also
go to their
place in peace.
018:024 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in
law, and did
all that he had said.
018:025 And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and
made them
heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of
hundreds, rulers
of fifties, and rulers of tens.
018:026 And they judged the people at all seasons: the
hard causes
they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged
themselves.
018:027 And Moses let his father in law depart; and he
went his way
into his own land.
019:001 In the third month, when the children of Israel
were gone
forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into
the wilderness
of Sinai.
019:002 For they were departed from Rephidim, and were
come to the
desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there
Israel camped
before the mount.
019:003 And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called
unto him out
of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of
Jacob, and tell
the children of Israel;
019:004 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and
how I bare you
on eagles'
wings, and brought you unto myself.
019:005 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed,
and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above
all people: for
all the earth is mine:
019:006 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests,
and an holy
nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the
children of
Israel.
019:007 And Moses came and called for the elders of the
people, and
laid before their faces all these words which the LORD
commanded
him.
019:008 And all the people answered together, and said,
All that the
LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of
the people unto
the LORD.
019:009 And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto
thee in a thick
cloud, that the
people may hear when I speak with thee, and
believe thee for
ever. And Moses told the words of the people
unto the
LORD.
019:010 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the
people, and sanctify
them to day and
to morrow, and let them wash their clothes,
019:011 And be ready against the third day: for the
third day the LORD
will come down
in the sight of all the people upon mount
Sinai.
019:012 And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round
about, saying,
Take heed to
yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or
touch the border
of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be
surely put to
death:
019:013 There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall
surely be
stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall
not live: when
the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up
to the
mount.
019:014 And Moses went down from the mount unto the
people, and
sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
019:015 And he said unto the people, Be ready against
the third day:
come not at your
wives.
019:016 And it came to pass on the third day in the
morning, that
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mount, and the
voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that
all the people
that was in the camp trembled.
019:017 And Moses brought forth the people out of the
camp to meet
with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount.
019:018 And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke,
because the LORD
descended upon
it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as
the smoke of a
furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.
019:019 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long,
and waxed
louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a
voice.
019:020 And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the
top of the
mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the top of the mount;
and Moses went
up.
019:021 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge
the people, lest
they break
through unto the LORD to gaze, and many of them
perish.
019:022 And let the priests also, which come near to the
LORD,
sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon them.
019:023 And Moses said unto the LORD, The people cannot
come up to
mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about
the mount, and
sanctify it.
019:024 And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down,
and thou
shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the
priests and the
people break through to come up unto the LORD,
lest he break
forth upon them.
019:025 So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them.
020:001 And God spake all these words, saying,
020:002 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee
out of the land
of Egypt, out of
the house of bondage.
020:003 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
020:004 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,
or any
likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in
the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
020:005 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor
serve them: for I
the LORD thy God
am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of
the fathers upon
the children unto the third and fourth
generation of
them that hate me;
020:006 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that
love me, and
keep my commandments.
020:007 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God
in vain; for
the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in
vain.
020:008 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
020:009 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
020:010 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD
thy God: in it
thou shalt not
do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy
daughter, thy
manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle,
nor thy stranger
that is within thy gates:
020:011 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth,
the sea, and
all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the
LORD blessed the
sabbath day, and hallowed it.
020:012 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days
may be long
upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
020:013 Thou shalt not kill.
020:014 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
020:015 Thou shalt not steal.
020:016 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
020:017 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou
shalt not
covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor
his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is
thy
neighbour's.
020:018 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the
lightnings,
and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and
when the people
saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
020:019 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us,
and we will
hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
020:020 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for
God is come to
prove you, and
that his fear may be before your faces, that ye
sin not.
020:021 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew
near unto the
thick darkness where God was.
020:022 And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt
say unto the
children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you
from heaven.
020:023 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver,
neither shall ye
make unto you
gods of gold.
020:024 An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and
shalt sacrifice
thereon thy
burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy
sheep, and thine
oxen: in all places where I record my name I
will come unto
thee, and I will bless thee.
020:025 And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou
shalt not
build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it,
thou hast
polluted it.
020:026 Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine
altar, that thy
nakedness be not
discovered thereon.
021:001 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
021:002 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he
shall serve: and
in the seventh
he shall go out free for nothing.
021:003 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by
himself: if he
were married,
then his wife shall go out with him.
021:004 If his master have given him a wife, and she
have born him
sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her
master's, and he
shall go out by himself.
021:005 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my
master, my
wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
021:006 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges;
he shall also
bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master
shall bore his
ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him
for ever.
021:007 And if a man sell his daughter to be a
maidservant, she shall
not go out as
the menservants do.
021:008 If she please not her master, who hath betrothed
her to
himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a
strange nation
he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt
deceitfully with
her.
021:009 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he
shall deal with
her after the
manner of daughters.
021:010 If he take him another wife; her food, her
raiment, and her
duty of
marriage, shall he not diminish.
021:011 And if he do not these three unto her, then
shall she go out
free without
money.
021:012 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be
surely put to
death.
021:013 And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver
him into his
hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
021:014 But if a man come presumptuously upon his
neighbour, to slay
him with guile;
thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he
may die.
021:015 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother,
shall be surely
put to
death.
021:016 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or
if he be found
in his hand, he
shall surely be put to death.
021:017 And he that curseth his father, or his mother,
shall surely be
put to
death.
021:018 And if men strive together, and one smite
another with a
stone, or with
his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
021:019 If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his
staff, then shall
he that smote
him be quit: only he shall pay for the loss of
his time, and
shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
021:020 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid,
with a rod, and
he die under his
hand; he shall be surely punished.
021:021 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he
shall not be
punished: for he is his money.
021:022 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so
that her fruit
depart from her,
and yet no mischief follow: he shall be
surely punished,
according as the woman's husband will lay
upon him; and he
shall pay as the judges determine.
021:023 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give
life for
life,
021:024 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
021:025 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
021:026 And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or
the eye of his
maid, that it
perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's
sake.
021:027 And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or
his
maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's
sake.
021:028 If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die:
then the ox
shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but
the owner of the
ox shall be quit.
021:029 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in
time past,
and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept
him in, but that
he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall
be stoned, and
his owner also shall be put to death.
021:030 If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he
shall give for
the ransom of
his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
021:031 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a
daughter,
according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
021:032 If the ox shall push a manservant or a
maidservant; he shall
give unto their
master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox
shall be
stoned.
021:033 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall
dig a pit,
and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;
021:034 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and
give money unto
the owner of
them; and the dead beast shall be his.
021:035 And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die;
then they
shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the
dead ox also
they shall divide.
021:036 Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push
in time past,
and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for
ox; and the dead
shall be his own.
022:001 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill
it, or sell
it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a
sheep.
022:002 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten
that he die,
there shall no blood be shed for him.
022:003 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be
blood shed for
him; for he
should make full restitution; if he have nothing,
then he shall be
sold for his theft.
022:004 If the theft be certainly found in his hand
alive, whether it
be ox, or ass,
or sheep; he shall restore double.
022:005 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be
eaten, and
shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field;
of the best of
his own field, and of the best of his own
vineyard, shall
he make restitution.
022:006 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that
the stacks of
corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed
therewith; he
that kindled the fire shall surely make
restitution.
022:007 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money
or stuff to
keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be
found, let him
pay double.
022:008 If the thief be not found, then the master of
the house shall
be brought unto
the judges, to see whether he have put his
hand unto his
neighbour's goods.
022:009 For all manner of trespass, whether it be for
ox, for ass, for
sheep, for
raiment, or for any manner of lost thing which
another
challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall
come before the
judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he
shall pay double
unto his neighbour.
022:010 If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or
an ox, or a
sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or
driven away, no
man seeing it:
022:011 Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them
both, that he
hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the
owner of it
shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it
good.
022:012 And if it be stolen from him, he shall make
restitution unto
the owner
thereof.
022:013 If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it
for witness,
and he shall not make good that which was torn.
022:014 And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and
it be hurt, or
die, the owner
thereof being not with it, he shall surely make
it good.
022:015 But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall
not make it
good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
022:016 And if a man entice a maid that is not
betrothed, and lie with
her, he shall
surely endow her to be his wife.
022:017 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto
him, he shall
pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
022:018 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
022:019 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
022:020 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the
LORD only, he
shall be utterly destroyed.
022:021 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress
him: for ye
were strangers in the land of Egypt.
022:022 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
022:023 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry
at all unto me,
I will surely
hear their cry;
022:024 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you
with the
sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children
fatherless.
022:025 If thou lend money to any of my people that is
poor by thee,
thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay
upon him
usury.
022:026 If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to
pledge, thou
shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
022:027 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment
for his skin:
wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he
crieth unto me,
that I will hear; for I am gracious.
022:028 Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the
ruler of thy
people.
022:029 Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy
ripe fruits,
and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give
unto me.
022:030 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with
thy sheep:
seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou
shalt give it
me.
022:031 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall
ye eat any
flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to
the dogs.
023:001 Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not
thine hand with
the wicked to be
an unrighteous witness.
023:002 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil;
neither shalt
thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
023:003 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
023:004 If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going
astray, thou
shalt surely bring it back to him again.
023:005 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee
lying under his
burden, and
wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely
help with
him.
023:006 Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
023:007 Keep thee far from a false matter; and the
innocent and
righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.
023:008 And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift
blindeth the wise,
and perverteth
the words of the righteous.
023:009 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye
know the heart
of a stranger,
seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
023:010 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt
gather in the
fruits thereof:
023:011 But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and
lie still;
that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the
beasts of the
field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal
with thy
vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.
023:012 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the
seventh day thou
shalt rest: that
thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son
of thy handmaid,
and the stranger, may be refreshed.
023:013 And in all things that I have said unto you be
circumspect:
and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it
be heard out of
thy mouth.
023:014 Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.
023:015 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread:
(thou shalt eat
unleavened bread
seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time
appointed of the
month Abib; for in it thou camest out from
Egypt: and none
shall appear before me empty:)
023:016 And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy
labours,
which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of
ingathering,
which is in the end of the year, when thou hast
gathered in thy
labours out of the field.
023:017 Three items in the year all thy males shall
appear before the
LORD God.
023:018 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leavened
bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the
morning.
023:019 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou
shalt bring into
the house of the
LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in
his mother's
milk.
023:020 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep
thee in the way,
and to bring
thee into the place which I have prepared.
023:021 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him
not; for he
will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
023:022 But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do
all that I
speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an
adversary unto
thine adversaries.
023:023 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring
thee in unto
the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the
Canaanites, the
Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut
them off.
023:024 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve
them, nor do
after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and
quite break down
their images.
023:025 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he
shall bless thy
bread, and thy
water; and I will take sickness away from the
midst of
thee.
023:026 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be
barren, in thy
land: the number
of thy days I will fulfil.
023:027 I will send my fear before thee, and will
destroy all the
people to whom
thou shalt come, and I will make all thine
enemies turn
their backs unto thee.
023:028 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall
drive out the
Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.
023:029 I will not drive them out from before thee in
one year; lest
the land become
desolate, and the beast of the field multiply
against
thee.
023:030 By little and little I will drive them out from
before thee,
until thou be increased, and inherit the land.
023:031 And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even
unto the sea
of the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river: for I
will deliver the
inhabitants of the land into your hand; and
thou shalt drive
them out before thee.
023:032 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
023:033 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make
thee sin
against me: for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a
snare unto
thee.
024:001 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the LORD,
thou, and
Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel;
and worship ye
afar off.
024:002 And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but
they shall not
come nigh;
neither shall the people go up with him.
024:003 And Moses came and told the people all the words
of the LORD,
and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one
voice, and said,
All the words which the LORD hath said will
we do.
024:004 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and
rose up early
in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and
twelve pillars,
according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
024:005 And he sent young men of the children of Israel,
which offered
burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto
the LORD.
024:006 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in
basons; and
half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
024:007 And he took the book of the covenant, and read
in the audience
of the people:
and they said, All that the LORD hath said will
we do, and be
obedient.
024:008 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on
the people, and
said, Behold the
blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath
made with you
concerning all these words.
024:009 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu,
and seventy
of the elders of Israel:
024:010 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was
under his feet
as it were a
paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were
the body of
heaven in his clearness.
024:011 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he
laid not his
hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
024:012 And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into
the mount,
and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law,
and commandments
which I have written; that thou mayest teach
them.
024:013 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and
Moses went up
into the mount of God.
024:014 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for
us, until we
come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you:
if any man have
any matters to do, let him come unto them.
024:015 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud
covered the
mount.
024:016 And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount
Sinai, and the
cloud covered it
six days: and the seventh day he called unto
Moses out of the
midst of the cloud.
024:017 And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like
devouring fire
on the top of
the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.
024:018 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and
gat him up
into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and
forty
nights.
025:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
025:002 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they
bring me an
offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart
ye shall take my
offering.
025:003 And this is the offering which ye shall take of
them; gold,
and silver, and brass,
025:004 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats'
hair,
025:005 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins,
and shittim
wood,
025:006 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and
for sweet
incense,
025:007 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod,
and in the
breastplate.
025:008 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
025:009 According to all that I shew thee, after the
pattern of the
tabernacle, and
the pattern of all the instruments thereof,
even so shall ye
make it.
025:010 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two
cubits and a
half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the
breadth thereof,
and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
025:011 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within
and without
shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold
round about.
025:012 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it,
and put them in
the four corners
thereof; and two rings shall be in the one
side of it, and
two rings in the other side of it.
025:013 And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and
overlay them
with gold.
025:014 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by
the sides of
the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.
025:015 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark:
they shall not be
taken from
it.
025:016 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony
which I shall
give thee.
025:017 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold:
two cubits and
a half shall be
the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the
breadth
thereof.
025:018 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of
beaten work
shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
025:019 And make one cherub on the one end, and the
other cherub on
the other end:
even of the mercy seat shall ye make the
cherubims on the
two ends thereof.
025:020 And the cherubims shall stretch forth their
wings on high,
covering the
mercy seat with their wings, and their faces
shall look one
to another; toward the mercy seat shall the
faces of the
cherubims be.
025:021 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the
ark; and in
the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
025:022 And there I will meet with thee, and I will
commune with thee
from above the
mercy seat, from between the two cherubims
which are upon
the ark of the testimony, of all things which I
will give thee
in commandment unto the children of Israel.
025:023 Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood:
two cubits shall
be the length
thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a
cubit and a half
the height thereof.
025:024 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and
make thereto a
crown of gold
round about.
025:025 And thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand
breadth round
about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border
thereof round
about.
025:026 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold,
and put the
rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.
025:027 Over against the border shall the rings be for
places of the
staves to bear the table.
025:028 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood,
and overlay
them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.
025:029 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and
spoons thereof,
and covers
thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of
pure gold shalt
thou make them.
025:030 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway.
025:031 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold:
of beaten work
shall the
candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches,
his bowls, his
knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same.
025:032 And six branches shall come out of the sides of
it; three
branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three
branches of the
candlestick out of the other side:
025:033 Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop
and a flower
in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other
branch, with a
knop and a flower: so in the six branches that
come out of the
candlestick.
025:034 And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made
like unto
almonds, with their knops and their flowers.
025:035 And there shall be a knop under two branches of
the same, and
a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the
same, according to the six branches that
proceed out of
the candlestick.
025:036 Their knops and their branches shall be of the
same: all it
shall be one beaten work of pure gold.
025:037 And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and
they shall
light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against
it.
025:038 And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes
thereof, shall be
of pure
gold.
025:039 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with
all these
vessels.
025:040 And look that thou make them after their
pattern, which was
shewed thee in
the mount.
026:001 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten
curtains of
fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with
cherubims of
cunning work shalt thou make them.
026:002 The length of one curtain shall be eight and
twenty cubits,
and the breadth
of one curtain four cubits: and every one of
the curtains
shall have one measure.
026:003 The five curtains shall be coupled together one

coupling of the

026:005 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain,
and fifty

couple the
curtains together with the taches: and it shall be one

cubits, and the

of the tent,
the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside
of the
tabernacle.
026:013 And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the
other side of
that which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the
tent, it shall
hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this
side and on that
side, to cover it.
026:014 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of

four sockets of
silver.
026:033 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the

026:034 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark
of the
testimony in the most holy place.
026:035 And thou shalt set the table without the vail,
and the

tabernacle
toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on

wood, and overlay them with brass.
027:007 And the staves shall be put into the rings, and
the staves
shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it.

for ever unto
their generations on the behalf of the children
of Israel.
028:001 And take thou unto thee Aaron thy brother, and
his sons with
him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister

girdle: and they shall make holy garments for
Aaron thy
brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me
in the priest's

ouches of
gold.
028:012 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the

at the ends of
wreathen work of
pure gold.

of the ephod
before it.
028:026 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou

which is in the
side of the ephod inward.
028:027 And two other rings of gold thou shalt make, and

forepart
thereof, over against the other coupling thereof,
above the
curious girdle of the ephod.
028:028 And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings
thereof unto
the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be

curious girdle of the ephod, and that the
breastplate be
not loosed from the ephod.
028:029 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children
of Israel in
the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in
unto the holy
place, for a memorial before the LORD
continually.
028:030 And thou shalt put in the breastplate of
judgment the Urim and
the Thummim; and
they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he
goeth in before
the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of
the children of
Israel upon his heart before the LORD
continually.
028:031 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
028:032 And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in
the midst
thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the
hole of it, as
it were the hole of an habergeon, that it be
not rent.
028:033 And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make
pomegranates of
blue, and of
purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem
thereof; and
bells of gold between them round about:
028:034 A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell
and a
pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
028:035 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his
sound shall be
heard when he
goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD,
and when he
cometh out, that he die not.
028:036 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and
grave upon it,
like the
engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
028:037 And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it
may be upon the
mitre; upon the
forefront of the mitre it shall be.
028:038 And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that
Aaron may bear the
iniquity of the
holy things, which the children of Israel
shall hallow in
all their holy gifts; and it shall be always
upon his
forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
028:039 And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen,
and thou

with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and
sanctify them,
that they may minister unto me in the priest's
office.
028:042 And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover
their
nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall
reach:
028:043 And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons,
when they
come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they
come near unto
the altar to minister in the holy place; that
they bear not
iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for
ever unto him
and his seed after him.
029:001 And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto
them to hallow
them, to
minister unto me in the priest's office: Take one
young bullock,
and two rams without blemish,
029:002 And unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened
tempered with oil,
and wafers
unleavened anointed with oil: of wheaten flour
shalt thou make
them.
029:003 And thou shalt put them into one basket, and
bring them in the
basket, with the
bullock and the two rams.
029:004 And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the

the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate,
and gird him
with the curious girdle of the ephod:
029:006 And thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and
put the holy
crown upon the mitre.
029:007 Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour
it upon his
head, and anoint him.
029:008 And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them.
029:009 And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and
his sons, and
put the bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be
theirs for a
perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate
Aaron and his
sons.
029:010 And thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought
before the
tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron and his sons shall
put their hands
upon the head of the bullock.
029:011 And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD,
by the door
of the tabernacle of the congregation.
029:012 And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock,
and put it
upon the horns of the altar with thy finger, and pour all the
blood beside the
bottom of the altar.
029:013 And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth
the inwards, and
the caul that is
above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the
fat that is upon
them, and burn them upon the altar.
029:014 But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and
his dung,
shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is a sin
offering.
029:015 Thou shalt also take one ram; and Aaron and his
sons shall put
their hands upon
the head of the ram.
029:016 And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take
his blood,
and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.
029:017 And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash
the inwards of
him, and his
legs, and put them unto his pieces, and unto his
head.
029:018 And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the
altar: it is a
burnt offering
unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour, an
offering made by
fire unto the LORD.
029:019 And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and
his sons
shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
029:020 Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his
blood, and put
it upon the tip
of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of
the right ear of
his sons, and upon the thumb of their right
hand, and upon
the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle
the blood upon
the altar round about.
029:021 And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon
the altar, and
of the anointing
oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his
garments, and
upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons
with him: and he
shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his
sons, and his
sons' garments with him.
029:022 Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the
rump, and the
fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver,
and the two
kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the
right shoulder;
for it is a ram of consecration:
029:023 And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled
bread, and one
wafer out of the
basket of the unleavened bread that is before
the LORD:
029:024 And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron,
and in the hands
of his sons; and
shalt wave them for a wave offering before
the LORD.
029:025 And thou shalt receive them of their hands, and
burn them upon
the altar for a
burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the
LORD: it is an
offering made by fire unto the LORD.
029:026 And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of
Aaron's
consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD:
and it shall be
thy part.
029:027 And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave
offering, and
the shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved, and which
is heaved up, of
the ram of the consecration, even of that
which is for
Aaron, and of that which is for his sons:
029:028 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by a
statute for ever
from the
children of Israel: for it is an heave offering: and
it shall be an
heave offering from the children of Israel of
the sacrifice of
their peace offerings, even their heave
offering unto
the LORD.
029:029 And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his
sons' after him,
to be anointed
therein, and to be consecrated in them.
029:030 And that son that is priest in his stead shall
put them on
seven days, when he cometh into the tabernacle of the
congregation to
minister in the holy place.
029:031 And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration,
and seethe
his flesh in the holy place.
029:032 And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of
the ram, and the
bread that is in
the basket by the door of the tabernacle of
the
congregation.
029:033 And they shall eat those things wherewith the
atonement was
made, to consecrate and to sanctify them: but a stranger shall
not eat thereof,
because they are holy.
029:034 And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations,
or of the
bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the
remainder with
fire: it shall not be eaten, because it is
holy.
029:035 And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and to his
sons, according
to all things
which I have commanded thee: seven days shalt
thou consecrate
them.
029:036 And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a
sin offering
for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou
hast made an
atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it, to
sanctify it.
029:037 Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the
altar, and
sanctify it; and it shall be an altar most holy: whatsoever
toucheth the
altar shall be holy.
029:038 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the
altar; two
lambs of the first year day by day continually.
029:039 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning;
and the other
lamb thou shalt offer at even:
029:040 And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour
mingled with the
fourth part of
an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an
hin of wine for
a drink offering.
029:041 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and
shalt do
thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and
according to the
drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour,
an offering made
by fire unto the LORD.
029:042 This shall be a continual burnt offering
throughout your
generations at
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation
before the LORD:
where I will meet you, to speak there unto
thee.
029:043 And there I will meet with the children of
Israel, and the
tabernacle shall
be sanctified by my glory.
029:044 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the
congregation, and
the altar: I
will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to
minister to me
in the priest's office.
029:045 And I will dwell among the children of Israel,
and will be
their God.
029:046 And they shall know that I am the LORD their
God, that brought
them forth out
of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among
them: I am the
LORD their God.
030:001 And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense
upon: of shittim
wood shalt thou
make it.
030:002 A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit
the breadth
thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the
height thereof:
the horns thereof shall be of the same.
030:003 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the
top thereof, and
the sides
thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou
shalt make unto
it a crown of gold round about.
030:004 And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under
the crown of
it, by the two corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt
thou make it;
and they shall be for places for the staves to
bear it
withal.
030:005 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood,
and overlay
them with gold.
030:006 And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by
the ark of
the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the
testimony, where
I will meet with thee.
030:007 And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every
morning: when
he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.
030:008 And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he
shall burn
incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD
throughout your
generations.
030:009 Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor
burnt
sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink
offering
thereon.
030:010 And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns
of it once in
a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once
in the year
shall he make atonement upon it throughout your
generations: it
is most holy unto the LORD.
030:011 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
030:012 When thou takest the sum of the children of
Israel after their
number, then
shall they give every man a ransom for his soul
unto the LORD,
when thou numberest them; that there be no
plague among
them, when thou numberest them.
030:013 This they shall give, every one that passeth
among them that
are numbered,
half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary:
(a shekel is
twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the
offering of the
LORD.
030:014 Every one that passeth among them that are
numbered, from
twenty years old
and above, shall give an offering unto the
LORD.
030:015 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall
not give less
than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD,
to make an
atonement for your souls.
030:016 And thou shalt take the atonement money of the
children of
Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle
of the
congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the
children of
Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement for
your souls.
030:017 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
030:018 Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his
foot also of
brass, to wash withal: and thou shalt put it between the
tabernacle of
the congregation and the altar, and thou shalt
put water
therein.
030:019 For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands
and their feet
thereat:
030:020 When they go into the tabernacle of the
congregation, they
shall wash with
water, that they die not; or when they come
near to the
altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire
unto the
LORD:
030:021 So they shall wash their hands and their feet,
that they die
not: and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him
and to his seed
throughout their generations.
030:022 Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
030:023 Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of
pure myrrh five
hundred shekels,
and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two
hundred and
fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred
and fifty
shekels,
030:024 And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the
shekel of the
sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:
030:025 And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment,
an ointment
compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy
anointing
oil.
030:026 And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the
congregation
therewith, and the ark of the testimony,
030:027 And the table and all his vessels, and the
candlestick and his
vessels, and the
altar of incense,
030:028 And the altar of burnt offering with all his
vessels, and the
laver and his
foot.
030:029 And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be
most holy:
whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
030:030 And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and
consecrate them,
that they may
minister unto me in the priest's office.
030:031 And thou shalt speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, This
shall be an holy
anointing oil unto me throughout your
generations.
030:032 Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither
shall ye make
any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy,
and it shall be
holy unto you.
030:033 Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever
putteth any of
it upon a
stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.
030:034 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee
sweet spices,
stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure
frankincense: of
each shall there be a like weight:
030:035 And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection
after the art
of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
030:036 And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and
put of it
before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation,
where I will
meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy.
030:037 And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye
shall not
make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it
shall be unto
thee holy for the LORD.
030:038 Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell
thereto, shall
even be cut off
from his people.
031:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
031:002 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of
Uri, the son of
Hur, of the
tribe of Judah:
031:003 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in
wisdom, and
in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of
workmanship,
031:004 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in
silver, and
in brass,
031:005 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in
carving of
timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
031:006 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab,
the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that
are wise hearted
I have put wisdom, that they may make all
that I have
commanded thee;
031:007 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark
of the
testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the
furniture of the
tabernacle,
031:008 And the table and his furniture, and the pure
candlestick with
all his
furniture, and the altar of incense,
031:009 And the altar of burnt offering with all his
furniture, and
the laver and
his foot,
031:010 And the cloths of service, and the holy garments
for Aaron the
priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the
priest's
office,
031:011 And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the
holy place:
according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
031:012 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
031:013 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel,
saying, Verily my
sabbaths ye
shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you
throughout your
generations; that ye may know that I am the
LORD that doth
sanctify you.
031:014 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is
holy unto you:
every one that
defileth it shall surely be put to death: for
whosoever doeth
any work therein, that soul shall be cut off
from among his
people.
031:015 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is
the sabbath
of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the
sabbath day, he
shall surely be put to death.
031:016 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the
sabbath, to
observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a
perpetual
covenant.
031:017 It is a sign between me and the children of
Israel for ever:
for in six days
the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the
seventh day he
rested, and was refreshed.
031:018 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end
of communing
with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of
stone, written
with the finger of God.
032:001 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to
come down out of
the mount, the
people gathered themselves together unto Aaron,
and said unto
him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us;
for as for this
Moses, the man that brought us up out of the
land of Egypt,
we wot not what is become of him.
032:002 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden
earrings, which
are in the ears
of your wives, of your sons, and of your
daughters, and
bring them unto me.
032:003 And all the people brake off the golden earrings
which were in
their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
032:004 And he received them at their hand, and
fashioned it with a
graving tool,
after he had made it a molten calf: and they
said, These be
thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out
of the land of
Egypt.
032:005 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before
it; and Aaron
made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
032:006 And they rose up early on the morrow, and
offered burnt
offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat
down to eat and
to drink, and rose up to play.
032:007 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down;
for thy
people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have
corrupted
themselves:
032:008 They have turned aside quickly out of the way
which I
commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have
worshipped it,
and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These
be thy gods, O
Israel, which have brought thee up out of the
land of
Egypt.
032:009 And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this
people, and,
behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
032:010 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may
wax hot against
them, and that I
may consume them: and I will make of thee a
great
nation.
032:011 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said,
LORD, why doth
thy wrath wax
hot against thy people, which thou hast brought
forth out of the
land of Egypt with great power, and with a
mighty hand?
032:012 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say,
For mischief
did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to
consume them
from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce
wrath, and
repent of this evil against thy people.
032:013 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy
servants, to whom
thou swarest by
thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will
multiply your
seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land
that I have
spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they
shall inherit it
for ever.
032:014 And the LORD repented of the evil which he
thought to do unto
his people.
032:015 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount,
and the two
tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were
written on both
their sides; on the one side and on the other
were they
written.
032:016 And the tables were the work of God, and the
writing was the
writing of God,
graven upon the tables.
032:017 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as
they shouted,
he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
032:018 And he said, It is not the voice of them that
shout for
mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being
overcome: but
the noise of them that sing do I hear.
032:019 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh
unto the camp,
that he saw the
calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed
hot, and he cast
the tables out of his hands, and brake them
beneath the
mount.
032:020 And he took the calf which they had made, and
burnt it in the
fire, and ground
it to powder, and strawed it upon the water,
and made the
children of Israel drink of it.
032:021 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people
unto thee,
that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
032:022 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax
hot: thou
knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.
032:023 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall
go before us:
for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the
land of Egypt,
we wot not what is become of him.
032:024 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold,
let them break
it off. So they
gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and
there came out
this calf.
032:025 And when Moses saw that the people were naked;
(for Aaron had
made them naked
unto their shame among their enemies:)
032:026 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and
said, Who is on
the LORD's side?
let him come unto me. And all the sons of
Levi gathered
themselves together unto him.
032:027 And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God
of Israel, Put
every man his
sword by his side, and go in and out from gate
to gate
throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother,
and every man
his companion, and every man his neighbour.
032:028 And the children of Levi did according to the
word of Moses:
and there fell
of the people that day about three thousand
men.
032:029 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today
to the LORD,
even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may
bestow upon you
a blessing this day.
032:030 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses
said unto the
people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto
the LORD;
peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.
032:031 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh,
this people
have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
032:032 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and
if not, blot
me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
032:033 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath
sinned against
me, him will I
blot out of my book.
032:034 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place
of which I
have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before
thee:
nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their
sin upon
them.
032:035 And the LORD plagued the people, because they
made the calf,
which Aaron
made.
033:001 And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up
hence, thou
and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of
Egypt, unto the
land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and
to Jacob,
saying, Unto thy seed will I give it:
033:002 And I will send an angel before thee; and I will
drive out the
Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite,
the Hivite, and
the Jebusite:
033:003 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I
will not go up
in the midst of
thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest
I consume thee
in the way.
033:004 And when the people heard these evil tidings,
they mourned:
and no man did put on him his ornaments.
033:005 For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the
children of
Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the
midst of thee in
a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put
off thy
ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto
thee.
033:006 And the children of Israel stripped themselves
of their
ornaments by the mount Horeb.
033:007 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it
without the
camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of
the
congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which
sought the LORD
went out unto the tabernacle of the
congregation,
which was without the camp.
033:008 And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto
the tabernacle,
that all the
people rose up, and stood every man at his tent
door, and looked
after Moses, until he was gone into the
tabernacle.
033:009 And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the
tabernacle, the
cloudy pillar
descended, and stood at the door of the
tabernacle, and
the Lord talked with Moses.
033:010 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand
at the
tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped,
every man in his
tent door.
033:011 And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a
man speaketh
unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his
servant Joshua,
the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out
of the
tabernacle.
033:012 And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest
unto me, Bring
up this people:
and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt
send with me.
Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and
thou hast also
found grace in my sight.
033:013 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found
grace in thy
sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may
find grace in
thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy
people.
033:014 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and
I will give
thee rest.
033:015 And he said unto him, If thy presence go not
with me, carry us
not up
hence.
033:016 For wherein shall it be known here that I and
thy people have
found grace in
thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with
us? so shall we
be separated, I and thy people, from all the
people that are
upon the face of the earth.
033:017 And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this
thing also that
thou hast
spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I
know thee by
name.
033:018 And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.
033:019 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass
before thee, and
I will proclaim
the name of the LORD before thee; and will be
gracious to whom
I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on
whom I will shew
mercy.
033:020 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for
there shall no
man see me, and
live.
033:021 And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by
me, and thou
shalt stand upon a rock:
033:022 And it shall come to pass, while my glory
passeth by, that I
will put thee in
a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with
my hand while I
pass by:
033:023 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt
see my back
parts: but my face shall not be seen.
034:001 And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two
tables of stone
like unto the
first: and I will write upon these tables the
words that were
in the first tables, which thou brakest.
034:002 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the
morning unto
mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the
mount.
034:003 And no man shall come up with thee, neither let
any man be
seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor
herds feed
before that mount.
034:004 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the
first; and
Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount
Sinai, as the
LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand the
two tables of
stone.
034:005 And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood
with him there,
and proclaimed
the name of the LORD.
034:006 And the LORD passed by before him, and
proclaimed, The LORD,
The LORD God,
merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and
abundant in
goodness and truth,
034:007 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity
and
transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the
guilty; visiting
the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children, and
upon the children's children, unto the third and
to the fourth
generation.
034:008 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward
the earth, and
worshipped.
034:009 And he said, If now I have found grace in thy
sight, O LORD,
let my LORD, I
pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked
people; and
pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for
thine
inheritance.
034:010 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before
all thy people
I will do
marvels, such as have not been done in all the
earth, nor in
any nation: and all the people among which thou
art shall see
the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing
that I will do
with thee.
034:011 Observe thou that which I command thee this day:
behold, I
drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the
Hittite, and the
Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
034:012 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant
with the
inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a
snare in the
midst of thee:
034:013 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their
images, and cut
down their
groves:
034:014 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the
LORD, whose name
is Jealous, is a
jealous God:
034:015 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants
of the land,
and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto
their gods, and
one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
034:016 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons,
and their
daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go
a whoring after
their gods.
034:017 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
034:018 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep.
Seven days thou
shalt eat
unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time
of the month
Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from
Egypt.
034:019 All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every
firstling among
thy cattle,
whether ox or sheep, that is male.
034:020 But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem
with a lamb: and
if thou redeem
him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All
the firstborn of
thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall
appear before me
empty.
034:021 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day
thou shalt
rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
034:022 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of
the firstfruits
of wheat
harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's
end.
034:023 Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren
appear before
the LORD God, the God of Israel.
034:024 For I will cast out the nations before thee, and
enlarge thy
borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou
shalt go up to
appear before the LORD thy God thrice in the
year.
034:025 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leaven;
neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be
left unto the
morning.
034:026 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou
shalt bring unto
the house of the
LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in
his mother's
milk.
034:027 And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these
words: for
after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with
thee and with
Israel.
034:028 And he was there with the LORD forty days and
forty nights; he
did neither eat
bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the
tables the words
of the covenant, the ten commandments.
034:029 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from
mount Sinai
with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came
down from the
mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his
face shone while
he talked with him.
034:030 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel
saw Moses,
behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to
come nigh
him.
034:031 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all
the rulers of
the congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with
them.
034:032 And afterward all the children of Israel came
nigh: and he
gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him
in mount
Sinai.
034:033 And till Moses had done speaking with them, he
put a vail on
his face.
034:034 But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak
with him, he
took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and
spake unto the
children of Israel that which he was commanded.
034:035 And the children of Israel saw the face of
Moses, that the
skin of Moses'
face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his
face again,
until he went in to speak with him.
035:001 And Moses gathered all the congregation of the
children of
Israel together, and said unto them, These are the words which
the LORD hath
commanded, that ye should do them.
035:002 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh
day there
shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD:
whosoever doeth
work therein shall be put to death.
035:003 Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your
habitations upon the
sabbath day.
035:004 And Moses spake unto all the congregation of the
children of
Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD commanded,
saying,
035:005 Take ye from among you an offering unto the
LORD: whosoever is
of a willing
heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD;
gold, and
silver, and brass,
035:006 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats'
hair,
035:007 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins,
and shittim
wood,
035:008 And oil for the light, and spices for anointing
oil, and for
the sweet incense,
035:009 And onyx stones, and stones to be set for the
ephod, and for
the
breastplate.
035:010 And every wise hearted among you shall come, and
make all that
the LORD hath commanded;
035:011 The tabernacle, his tent, and his covering, his
taches, and
his boards, his bars, his pillars, and his sockets,
035:012 The ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy
seat, and the
vail of the covering,
035:013 The table, and his staves, and all his vessels,
and the
shewbread,
035:014 The candlestick also for the light, and his
furniture, and his
lamps, with the
oil for the light,
035:015 And the incense altar, and his staves, and the
anointing oil,
and the sweet
incense, and the hanging for the door at the
entering in of
the tabernacle,
035:016 The altar of burnt offering, with his brasen
grate, his
staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,
035:017 The hangings of the court, his pillars, and
their sockets, and
the hanging for
the door of the court,
035:018 The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins of the
court, and
their cords,
035:019 The cloths of service, to do service in the holy
place, the
holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his
sons, to
minister in the priest's office.
035:020 And all the congregation of the children of
Israel departed
from the
presence of Moses.
035:021 And they came, every one whose heart stirred him
up, and every
one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD's
offering to the
work of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and for all his
service, and for the holy garments.
035:022 And they came, both men and women, as many as
were willing
hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and
tablets, all
jewels of gold: and every man that offered
offered an
offering of gold unto the LORD.
035:023 And every man, with whom was found blue, and
purple, and
scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of
rams, and
badgers' skins, brought them.
035:024 Every one that did offer an offering of silver
and brass
brought the LORD's offering: and every man, with whom was
found shittim
wood for any work of the service, brought it.
035:025 And all the women that were wise hearted did
spin with their
hands, and
brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and
of purple, and
of scarlet, and of fine linen.
035:026 And all the women whose heart stirred them up in
wisdom spun
goats' hair.
035:027 And the rulers brought onyx stones, and stones
to be set, for
the ephod, and
for the breastplate;
035:028 And spice, and oil for the light, and for the
anointing oil,
and for the
sweet incense.
035:029 The children of Israel brought a willing
offering unto the
LORD, every man
and woman, whose heart made them willing to
bring for all
manner of work, which the LORD had commanded to
be made by the
hand of Moses.
035:030 And Moses said unto the children of Israel, See,
the LORD hath
called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the
tribe of
Judah;
035:031 And he hath filled him with the spirit of God,
in wisdom, in
understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of
workmanship;
035:032 And to devise curious works, to work in gold,
and in silver,
and in
brass,
035:033 And in the cutting of stones, to set them, and
in carving of
wood, to make any manner of cunning work.
035:034 And he hath put in his heart that he may teach,
both he, and
Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
035:035 Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart, to
work all manner
of work, of the
engraver, and of the cunning workman, and of
the embroiderer,
in blue, and in purple, in scarlet, and in
fine linen, and
of the weaver, even of them that do any work,
and of those
that devise cunning work.
036:001 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every
wise hearted man,
in whom the LORD
put wisdom and understanding to know how to
work all manner
of work for the service of the sanctuary,
according to all
that the LORD had commanded.
036:002 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every
wise hearted
man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even every one
whose heart
stirred him up to come unto the work to do it:
036:003 And they received of Moses all the offering,
which the
children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of
the sanctuary,
to make it withal. And they brought yet unto
him free
offerings every morning.
036:004 And all the wise men, that wrought all the work
of the
sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made;
036:005 And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people
bring much more
than enough for
the service of the work, which the LORD
commanded to
make.
036:006 And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it
to be
proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor
woman make any
more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So
the people were
restrained from bringing.
036:007 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all
the work to make
it, and too
much.
036:008 And every wise hearted man among them that
wrought the work of
the tabernacle
made ten curtains of fine twined linen, and
blue, and
purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work
made he
them.
036:009 The length of one curtain was twenty and eight
cubits, and the
breadth of one
curtain four cubits: the curtains were all of
one size.
036:010 And he coupled the five curtains one unto
another: and the
other five
curtains he coupled one unto another.
036:011 And he made loops of blue on the edge of one
curtain from the
selvedge in the
coupling: likewise he made in the uttermost
side of another
curtain, in the coupling of the second.
036:012 Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty
loops made he in
the edge of the
curtain which was in the coupling of the
second: the
loops held one curtain to another.
036:013 And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled
the curtains one
unto another
with the taches: so it became one tabernacle.
036:014 And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent
over the
tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
036:015 The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and
four cubits
was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains were of
one size.
036:016 And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and
six curtains
by themselves.
036:017 And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost edge
of the curtain
in the coupling,
and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the
curtain which
coupleth the second.
036:018 And he made fifty taches of brass to couple the
tent together,
that it might be
one.
036:019 And he made a covering for the tent of rams'
skins dyed red,
and a covering
of badgers' skins above that.
036:020 And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim
wood,
standing up.
036:021 The length of a board was ten cubits, and the
breadth of a
board one cubit and a half.
036:022 One board had two tenons, equally distant one
from another:
thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
036:023 And he made boards for the tabernacle; twenty
boards for the
south side
southward:
036:024 And forty sockets of silver he made under the
twenty boards;
two sockets
under one board for his two tenons, and two
sockets under
another board for his two tenons.
036:025 And for the other side of the tabernacle, which
is toward the
north corner, he made twenty boards,
036:026 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets
under one
board, and two sockets under another board.
036:027 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he
made six
boards.
036:028 And two boards made he for the corners of the
tabernacle in
the two sides.
036:029 And they were coupled beneath, and coupled
together at the
head thereof, to
one ring: thus he did to both of them in both
the corners.
036:030 And there were eight boards; and their sockets
were sixteen
sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.
036:031 And he made bars of shittim wood; five for the
boards of the
one side of the tabernacle,
036:032 And five bars for the boards of the other side
of the
tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for
the sides
westward.
036:033 And he made the middle bar to shoot through the
boards from
the one end to the other.
036:034 And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made
their rings of
gold to be
places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with
gold.
036:035 And he made a vail of blue, and purple, and
scarlet, and fine
twined linen:
with cherubims made he it of cunning work.
036:036 And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim
wood, and
overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast
for them four
sockets of silver.
036:037 And he made an hanging for the tabernacle door
of blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, of needlework;
036:038 And the five pillars of it with their hooks: and
he overlaid
their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but their five
sockets were of
brass.
037:001 And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two
cubits and a
half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth
of it, and a
cubit and a half the height of it:
037:002 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and
without, and made
a crown of gold
to it round about.
037:003 And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set
by the four
corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two
rings upon the
other side of it.
037:004 And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid
them with
gold.
037:005 And he put the staves into the rings by the
sides of the ark,
to bear the
ark.
037:006 And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two
cubits and a half
was the length
thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth
thereof.
037:007 And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of
one piece
made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
037:008 One cherub on the end on this side, and another
cherub on the
other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the
cherubims on the
two ends thereof.
037:009 And the cherubims spread out their wings on
high, and covered
with their wings
over the mercy seat, with their faces one to
another; even to
the mercy seatward were the faces of the
cherubims.
037:010 And he made the table of shittim wood: two
cubits was the
length thereof,
and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit
and a half the
height thereof:
037:011 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made
thereunto a crown
of gold round
about.
037:012 Also he made thereunto a border of an
handbreadth round about;
and made a crown
of gold for the border thereof round about.
037:013 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put
the rings upon
the four corners
that were in the four feet thereof.
037:014 Over against the border were the rings, the
places for the
staves to bear
the table.
037:015 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with
gold, to bear
the table.
037:016 And he made the vessels which were upon the
table, his dishes,
and his spoons,
and his bowls, and his covers to cover withal,
of pure
gold.
037:017 And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of
beaten work made
he the
candlestick; his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his
knops, and his
flowers, were of the same:
037:018 And six branches going out of the sides thereof;
three
branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and
three branches
of the candlestick out of the other side
thereof:
037:019 Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds in
one branch, a
knop and a flower; and three bowls made like almonds in
another branch,
a knop and a flower: so throughout the six
branches going
out of the candlestick.
037:020 And in the candlestick were four bowls made like
almonds, his
knops, and his flowers:
037:021 And a knop under two branches of the same, and a
knop under
two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the
same, according
to the six branches going out of it.
037:022 Their knops and their branches were of the same:
all of it was
one beaten work of pure gold.
037:023 And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers,
and his
snuffdishes, of pure gold.
037:024 Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and all the
vessels
thereof.
037:025 And he made the incense altar of shittim wood:
the length of
it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit; it was
foursquare; and
two cubits was the height of it; the horns
thereof were of
the same.
037:026 And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top
of it, and the
sides thereof
round about, and the horns of it: also he made
unto it a crown
of gold round about.
037:027 And he made two rings of gold for it under the
crown thereof,
by the two
corners of it, upon the two sides thereof, to be
places for the
staves to bear it withal.
037:028 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with
gold.
037:029 And he made the holy anointing oil, and the pure
incense of
sweet spices, according to the work of the apothecary.
038:001 And he made the altar of burnt offering of
shittim wood: five
cubits was the
length thereof, and five cubits the breadth
thereof; it was
foursquare; and three cubits the height
thereof.
038:002 And he made the horns thereof on the four
corners of it; the
horns thereof
were of the same: and he overlaid it with brass.
038:003 And he made all the vessels of the altar, the
pots, and the
shovels, and the basons, and the fleshhooks, and the firepans:
all the vessels
thereof made he of brass.
038:004 And he made for the altar a brasen grate of
network under the
compass thereof
beneath unto the midst of it.
038:005 And he cast four rings for the four ends of the
grate of
brass, to be places for the staves.
038:006 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with
brass.
038:007 And he put the staves into the rings on the
sides of the
altar, to bear it withal; he made the altar hollow with
boards.
038:008 And he made the laver of brass, and the foot of
it of brass,
of the lookingglasses of the women assembling, which assembled
at the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation.
038:009 And he made the court: on the south side
southward the
hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, an hundred
cubits:
038:010 Their pillars were twenty, and their brasen
sockets twenty;
the hooks of the
pillars and their fillets were of silver.
038:011 And for the north side the hangings were an
hundred cubits,
their pillars
were twenty, and their sockets of brass twenty;
the hooks of the
pillars and their fillets of silver.
038:012 And for the west side were hangings of fifty
cubits, their
pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars
and their
fillets of silver.
038:013 And for the east side eastward fifty cubits.
038:014 The hangings of the one side of the gate were
fifteen cubits;
their pillars
three, and their sockets three.
038:015 And for the other side of the court gate, on
this hand and
that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars
three, and their
sockets three.
038:016 All the hangings of the court round about were
of fine twined
linen.
038:017 And the sockets for the pillars were of brass;
the hooks of
the pillars and their fillets of silver; and the overlaying of
their chapiters
of silver; and all the pillars of the court
were filleted
with silver.
038:018 And the hanging for the gate of the court was
needlework, of
blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and
twenty cubits
was the length, and the height in the breadth
was five cubits,
answerable to the hangings of the court.
038:019 And their pillars were four, and their sockets
of brass four;
their hooks of
silver, and the overlaying of their chapiters
and their
fillets of silver.
038:020 And all the pins of the tabernacle, and of the
court round
about, were of brass.
038:021 This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the
tabernacle of
testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of
Moses, for the
service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar,
son to Aaron the
priest.
038:022 And Bezaleel the son Uri, the son of Hur, of the
tribe of
Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.
038:023 And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of
the tribe of
Dan, an engraver, and a cunning workman, and an embroiderer in
blue, and in
purple, and in scarlet, and fine linen.
038:024 All the gold that was occupied for the work in
all the work of
the holy place,
even the gold of the offering, was twenty and
nine talents,
and seven hundred and thirty shekels, after the
shekel of the
sanctuary.
038:025 And the silver of them that were numbered of the
congregation
was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and
threescore and
fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the
sanctuary:
038:026 A bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel,
after the
shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be
numbered, from
twenty years old and upward, for six hundred
thousand and
three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.
038:027 And of the hundred talents of silver were cast
the sockets of
the sanctuary,
and the sockets of the vail; an hundred sockets
of the hundred
talents, a talent for a socket.
038:028 And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and
five shekels he
made hooks for
the pillars, and overlaid their chapiters, and
filleted
them.
038:029 And the brass of the offering was seventy
talents, and two
thousand and
four hundred shekels.
038:030 And therewith he made the sockets to the door of
the
tabernacle of the congregation, and the brasen altar, and the
brasen grate for
it, and all the vessels of the altar,
038:031 And the sockets of the court round about, and
the sockets of
the court gate,
and all the pins of the tabernacle, and all
the pins of the
court round about.
039:001 And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they
made cloths of
service, to do
service in the holy place, and made the holy
garments for
Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.
039:002 And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple,
and scarlet,
and fine twined linen.
039:003 And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and
cut it into
wires, to work it in the blue, and in the purple, and in the
scarlet, and in
the fine linen, with cunning work.
039:004 They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it
together: by the
two edges was it
coupled together.
039:005 And the curious girdle of his ephod, that was
upon it, was of
the same,
according to the work thereof; of gold, blue, and
purple, and
scarlet, and fine twined linen; as the LORD
commanded
Moses.
039:006 And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches
of gold,
graven, as signets are graven, with the names of the children
of Israel.
039:007 And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod,
that they
should be stones for a memorial to the children of Israel; as
the LORD
commanded Moses.
039:008 And he made the breastplate of cunning work,
like the work of
the ephod; of
gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined
linen.
039:009 It was foursquare; they made the breastplate
double: a span
was the length
thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being
doubled.
039:010 And they set in it four rows of stones: the
first row was a
sardius, a
topaz, and a carbuncle: this was the first row.
039:011 And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
039:012 And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
039:013 And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a
jasper: they were
inclosed in
ouches of gold in their inclosings.
039:014 And the stones were according to the names of
the children of
Israel, twelve,
according to their names, like the engravings
of a signet,
every one with his name, according to the twelve
tribes.
039:015 And they made upon the breastplate chains at the
ends, of
wreathen work of pure gold.
039:016 And they made two ouches of gold, and two gold
rings; and put
the two rings in
the two ends of the breastplate.
039:017 And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in
the two rings
on the ends of the breastplate.
039:018 And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they
fastened in
the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the
ephod, before
it.
039:019 And they made two rings of gold, and put them on
the two ends
of the breastplate, upon the border of it, which was on the
side of the
ephod inward.
039:020 And they made two other golden rings, and put
them on the two
sides of the
ephod underneath, toward the forepart of it, over
against the
other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle
of the
ephod.
039:021 And they did bind the breastplate by his rings
unto the rings
of the ephod
with a lace of blue, that it might be above the
curious girdle
of the ephod, and that the breastplate might
not be loosed
from the ephod; as the LORD commanded Moses.
039:022 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.
039:023 And there was an hole in the midst of the robe,
as the hole of
an habergeon,
with a band round about the hole, that it should
not rend.
039:024 And they made upon the hems of the robe
pomegranates of blue,
and purple, and
scarlet, and twined linen.
039:025 And they made bells of pure gold, and put the
bells between
the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round about between
the
pomegranates;
039:026 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a
pomegranate, round
about the hem of
the robe to minister in; as the LORD
commanded
Moses.
039:027 And they made coats of fine linen of woven work
for Aaron, and
for his
sons,
039:028 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of
fine linen,
and linen breeches of fine twined linen,
039:029 And a girdle of fine twined linen, and blue, and
purple, and
scarlet, of needlework; as the LORD commanded Moses.
039:030 And they made the plate of the holy crown of
pure gold, and
wrote upon it a
writing, like to the engravings of a signet,
HOLINESS TO THE
LORD.
039:031 And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten
it on high
upon the mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses.
039:032 Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the
tent of the
congregation finished: and the children of Israel did
according to all
that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
039:033 And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the
tent, and all
his furniture, his taches, his boards, his bars, and his
pillars, and his
sockets,
039:034 And the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and
the covering of
badgers' skins,
and the vail of the covering,
039:035 The ark of the testimony, and the staves
thereof, and the
mercy seat,
039:036 The table, and all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread,
039:037 The pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof,
even with the
lamps to be set in order, and all the vessels thereof, and the
oil for
light,
039:038 And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and
the sweet
incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle door,
039:039 The brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his
staves, and all
his vessels, the
laver and his foot,
039:040 The hangings of the court, his pillars, and his
sockets, and
the hanging for the court gate, his cords, and his pins, and
all the vessels
of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent
of the
congregation,
039:041 The cloths of service to do service in the holy
place, and the
holy garments
for Aaron the priest, and his sons' garments, to
minister in the
priest's office.
039:042 According to all that the LORD commanded Moses,
so the
children of Israel made all the work.
039:043 And Moses did look upon all the work, and,
behold, they had
done it as the
LORD had commanded, even so had they done it:
and Moses
blessed them.
040:001 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
040:002 On the first day of the first month shalt thou
set up the
tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
040:003 And thou shalt put therein the ark of the
testimony, and cover
the ark with the
vail.
040:004 And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in
order the things
that are to be
set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in
the candlestick,
and light the lamps thereof.
040:005 And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the
incense before
the ark of the
testimony, and put the hanging of the door to
the
tabernacle.
040:006 And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt
offering before the
door of the
tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
040:007 And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of
the
congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.
040:008 And thou shalt set up the court round about, and
hang up the
hanging at the court gate.
040:009 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and
anoint the
tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow it, and
all the vessels
thereof: and it shall be holy.
040:010 And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt
offering, and all
his vessels, and
sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar
most holy.
040:011 And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.
040:012 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the
door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
040:013 And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments,
and anoint
him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the
priest's
office.
040:014 And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
040:015 And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint
their father,
that they may minister unto me in the priest's office: for
their anointing
shall surely be an everlasting priesthood
throughout their
generations.
040:016 Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD
commanded him,
so did he.
040:017 And it came to pass in the first month in the
second year, on
the first day of
the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.
040:018 And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened
his sockets,
and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof,
and reared up
his pillars.
040:019 And he spread abroad the tent over the
tabernacle, and put the
covering of the
tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded
Moses.
040:020 And he took and put the testimony into the ark,
and set the
staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above upon the ark:
040:021 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and
set up the
vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as
the LORD
commanded Moses.
040:022 And he put the table in the tent of the
congregation, upon the
side of the
tabernacle northward, without the vail.
040:023 And he set the bread in order upon it before the
LORD; as the
LORD had commanded Moses.
040:024 And he put the candlestick in the tent of the
congregation,
over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle
southward.
040:025 And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the
LORD
commanded Moses.
040:026 And he put the golden altar in the tent of the
congregation
before the vail:
040:027 And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD
commanded
Moses.
040:028 And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.
040:029 And he put the altar of burnt offering by the
door of the
tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon
it the burnt
offering and the meat offering; as the LORD
commanded
Moses.
040:030 And he set the laver between the tent of the
congregation and
the altar, and
put water there, to wash withal.
040:031 And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their
hands and their
feet
thereat:
040:032 When they went into the tent of the
congregation, and when
they came near
unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD
commanded
Moses.
040:033 And he reared up the court round about the
tabernacle and the
altar, and set
up the hanging of the court gate. So Moses
finished the
work.
040:034 Then a cloud covered the tent of the
congregation, and the
glory of the
LORD filled the tabernacle.
040:035 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of
the
congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory
of the LORD
filled the tabernacle.
040:036 And when the cloud was taken up from over the
tabernacle, the
children of
Israel went onward in all their journeys:
040:037 But if the cloud were not taken up, then they
journeyed not
till the day that it was taken up.
040:038 For the cloud of the LORD was upon the
tabernacle by day, and
fire was on it
by night, in the sight of all the house of
Israel,
throughout all their journeys.
