camp every leper and every one that hath an issue and whosoever

is defiled by the dead .

53 Both male and female shall ye put out without the camp

shall ye put them that they defile not their camps in the midst

whereof I dwell .

54 And the children of Israel did so and put them out without

the camp as the LORD spake unto Moses so did the children of

Israel .

55 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

56 Speak unto the children of Israel When a man or woman shall

commit any sin that men commit to do a trespass against the LORD

and that person be guilty .

57 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done and

he shall recompense his trespass with the principal thereof and

add unto it the fifth part thereof and give it unto him against

whom he hath trespassed .

58 But if the man have no kinsman to recompense the trespass

unto let the trespass be recompensed unto the LORD even to the

priest beside the ram of the atonement whereby an atonement

shall be made for him .

59 And every offering of all the holy things of the children

of Israel which they bring unto the priest shall be his .

510 And every man's hallowed things shall be his whatsoever

any man giveth the priest it shall be his .

511 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

512 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them If any

man's wife go aside and commit a trespass against him .

513 And a man lie with her carnally and it be hid from the

eyes of her husband and be kept close and she be defiled and

there be no witness against her neither she be taken with the

manner .

514 And the spirit of jealousy come upon him and he be jealous

of his wife and she be defiled or if the spirit of jealousy come

upon him and he be jealous of his wife and she be not defiled .

515 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest and he

shall bring her offering for her the tenth part of an ephah of

barley meal he shall pour no oil upon it nor put frankincense

thereon for it is an offering of jealousy an offering of

memorial bringing iniquity to remembrance .

516 And the priest shall bring her near and set her before the

LORD .

517 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel

and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the

priest shall take and put it into the water .

518 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD and

uncover the woman's head and put the offering of memorial in her

hands which is the jealousy offering and the priest shall have

in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse .

519 And the priest shall charge her by an oath and say unto

the woman If no man have lain with thee and if thou hast not

gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy husband be

thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse .

520 But if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy

husband and if thou be defiled and some man have lain with thee

beside thine husband .

521 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of

cursing and the priest shall say unto the woman The LORD make

thee a curse and an oath among thy people when the LORD doth

make thy thigh to rot and thy belly to swell .

522 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy

bowels to make thy belly to swell and thy thigh to rot And the

woman shall say Amen amen .

523 And the priest shall write these curses in a book and he

shall blot them out with the bitter water .

524 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water

that causeth the curse and the water that causeth the curse

shall enter into her and become bitter .

525 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of

the woman's hand and shall wave the offering before the LORD and

offer it upon the altar .

526 And the priest shall take an handful of the offering even

the memorial thereof and burn it upon the altar and afterward

shall cause the woman to drink the water .

527 And when he hath made her to drink the water then it shall

come to pass that if she be defiled and have done trespass

against her husband that the water that causeth the curse shall

enter into her and become bitter and her belly shall swell and

her thigh shall rot and the woman shall be a curse among her

people .

528 And if the woman be not defiled but be clean then she

shall be free and shall conceive seed .

529 This is the law of jealousies when a wife goeth aside to

another instead of her husband and is defiled .

530 Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him and he be

jealous over his wife and shall set the woman before the LORD

and the priest shall execute upon her all this law .

531 Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity and this

woman shall bear her iniquity .

* 61 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

62 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them When

either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a

Nazarite to separate themselves unto the LORD .

63 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink and

shall drink no vinegar of wine or vinegar of strong drink

neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes nor eat moist grapes

or dried .

64 All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is

made of the vine tree from the kernels even to the husk .

65 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no

razor come upon his head until the days be fulfilled in the

which he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall be holy and

shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow .

66 All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he

shall come at no dead body .

67 He shall not make himself unclean for his father or for his

mother for his brother or for his sister when they die because

the consecration of his God is upon his head .

68 All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD .

69 And if any man die very suddenly by him and he hath defiled

the head of his consecration then he shall shave his head in the

day of his cleansing on the seventh day shall he shave it .

610 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles or two

young pigeons to the priest to the door of the tabernacle of the

congregation .

611 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering and

the other for a burnt offering and make an atonement for him for

that he sinned by the dead and shall hallow his head that same

day .

612 And he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his

separation and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a

trespass offering but the days that were before shall be lost

because his separation was defiled .

613 And this is the law of the Nazarite when the days of his

separation are fulfilled he shall be brought unto the door of

the tabernacle of the congregation .

614 And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD one he lamb

of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering and one

ewe lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering

and one ram without blemish for peace offerings .

615 And a basket of unleavened bread cakes of fine flour

mingled with oil and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with

oil and their meat offering and their drink offerings .

616 And the priest shall bring them before the LORD and shall

offer his sin offering and his burnt offering .

617 And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace

offerings unto the LORD with the basket of unleavened bread the

priest shall offer also his meat offering and his drink offering

618 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at

the door of the tabernacle of the congregation and shall take

the hair of the head of his separation and put it in the fire

which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings .

619 And the priest shall take the sodden shoulder of the ram

and one unleavened cake out of the basket and one unleavened

wafer and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite after

the hair of his separation is shaven .

620 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before

the LORD this is holy for the priest with the wave breast and

heave shoulder and after that the Nazarite may drink wine .

621 This is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed and of his

offering unto the LORD for his separation beside that that his

hand shall get according to the vow which he vowed so he must do

after the law of his separation .

622 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

623 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons saying On this wise ye

shall bless the children of Israel saying unto them .

624 The LORD bless thee and keep thee .

625 The LORD make his face shine upon thee and be gracious

unto thee .

626 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee and give thee

peace .

627 And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel and

I will bless them .

* 71 And it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up

the tabernacle and had anointed it and sanctified it and all the

instruments thereof both the altar and all the vessels thereof

and had anointed them and sanctified them .

72 That the princes of Israel heads of the house of their

fathers who were the princes of the tribes and were over them

that were numbered offered .

73 And they brought their offering before the LORD six covered

wagons and twelve oxen a wagon for two of the princes and for

each one an ox and they brought them before the tabernacle .

74 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

75 Take it of them that they may be to do the service of the

tabernacle of the congregation and thou shalt give them unto the

Levites to every man according to his service .

76 And Moses took the wagons and the oxen and gave them unto

the Levites .

77 Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon

according to their service .

78 And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of

Merari according unto their service under the hand of Ithamar

the son of Aaron the priest .

service of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they

should bear upon their shoulders .

710 And the princes offered for dedicating of the altar in the

day that it was anointed even the princes offered their offering

before the altar .

789 And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of the

congregation to speak with him then he heard the voice of one

speaking unto him from off the mercy seat that was upon the ark

of testimony from between the two cherubims and he spake unto

him .

* 81 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

82 Speak unto Aaron and say unto him When thou lightest the

lamps the seven lamps shall give light over against the

candlestick .

83 And Aaron did so he lighted the lamps thereof over against

the candlestick as the LORD commanded Moses .

84 And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold unto

the shaft thereof unto the flowers thereof was beaten work

according unto the pattern which the LORD had showed Moses so he

made the candlestick .

85 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

86 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel and

cleanse them .

87 And thus shalt thou do unto them to cleanse them Sprinkle

water of purifying upon them and let them shave all their flesh

and let them wash their clothes and so make themselves clean .

88 Then let them take a young bullock with his meat offering

even fine flour mingled with oil and another young bullock shalt

thou take for a sin offering .

89 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of

the congregation and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the

children of Israel together .

810 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD and the

children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites .

811 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for an

offering of the children of Israel that they may execute the

service of the LORD .

812 And the Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of

the bullocks and thou shalt offer the one for a sin offering and

the other for a burnt offering unto the LORD to make an

atonement for the Levites .

813 And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron and before his

sons and offer them for an offering unto the LORD .

814 Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the

children of Israel and the Levites shall be mine .

815 And after that shall the Levites go in to do the service

of the tabernacle of the congregation and thou shalt cleanse

them and offer them for an offering .

816 For they are wholly given unto me from among the children

of Israel instead of such as open every womb even instead of the

firstborn of all the children of Israel have I taken them unto

me .

817 For all the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine

both man and beast on the day that I smote every firstborn in

the land of Egypt I sanctified them for myself .

818 And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the

children of Israel .

819 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his

sons from among the children of Israel to do the service of the

children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation and to

make an atonement for the children of Israel that there be no

plague among the children of Israel when the children of Israel

come nigh unto the sanctuary .

820 And Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the

children of Israel did to the Levites according unto all that

the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites so did the

children of Israel unto them .

821 And the Levites were purified and they washed their

clothes and Aaron offered them as an offering before the LORD

and Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them .

822 And after that went the Levites in to do their service in

the tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron and before his

sons as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites so

did they unto them .

823 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

824 This is it that belongeth unto the Levites from twenty and

five years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon the

service of the tabernacle of the congregation .

825 And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting

upon the service thereof and shall serve no more .

826 But shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle

of the congregation to keep the charge and shall do no service

Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charge .

* 91 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai

in the first month of the second year after they were come out

of the land of Egypt saying .

92 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his

appointed season .

93 In the fourteenth day of this month at even ye shall keep

it in his appointed season according to all the rites of it and

according to all the ceremonies thereof shall ye keep it .

94 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel that they

should keep the passover .

95 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the

first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai according to all

that the LORD commanded Moses so did the children of Israel .

96 And there were certain men who were defiled by the dead

body of a man that they could not keep the passover on that day

and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day .

97 And those men said unto him We are defiled by the dead body

of a man wherefore are we kept back that we may not offer an

offering of the LORD in his appointed season among the children

of Israel .

98 And Moses said unto them Stand still and I will hear what

the LORD will command concerning you .

99 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

910 Speak unto the children of Israel saying If any man of you

or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body

or be in a journey afar off yet he shall keep the passover unto

the LORD .

911 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall

keep it and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs .

912 They shall leave none of it unto the morning nor break any

bone of it according to all the ordinances of the passover they

shall keep it .

913 But the man that is clean and is not in a journey and

forbeareth to keep the passover even the same soul shall be cut

off from among his people because he brought not the offering of

the LORD in his appointed season that man shall bear his sin .

914 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you and will keep

the passover unto the LORD according to the ordinance of the

passover and according to the manner thereof so shall he do ye

shall have one ordinance both for the stranger and for him that

was born in the land .

915 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud

covered the tabernacle namely the tent of the testimony and at

even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of

fire until the morning .

916 So it was alway the cloud covered it by day and the

appearance of fire by night .

917 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle then

after that the children of Israel journeyed and in the place

where the cloud abode there the children of Israel pitched their

tents .

918 At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel

journeyed and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched as

long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their

tents .

919 And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many

days then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD and

journeyed not .

920 And so it was when the cloud was a few days upon the

tabernacle according to the commandment of the LORD they abode

in their tents and according to the commandment of the LORD they

journeyed .

921 And so it was when the cloud abode from even unto the

morning and that the cloud was taken up in the morning then they

journeyed whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was

taken up they journeyed .

922 Or whether it were two days or a month or a year that the

cloud tarried upon the tabernacle remaining thereon the children

of Israel abode in their tents and journeyed not but when it was

taken up they journeyed .

923 At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents

and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed they kept the

charge of the LORD at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of

Moses .

* 101 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

102 Make thee two trumpets of silver of a whole piece shalt

thou make them that thou mayest use them for the calling of the

assembly and for the journeying of the camps .

103 And when they shall blow with them all the assembly shall

assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the

congregation .

104 And if they blow but with one trumpet then the princes

which are heads of the thousands of Israel shall gather

themselves unto thee .

105 When ye blow an alarm then the camps that lie on the east

parts shall go forward .

106 When ye blow an alarm the second time then the camps that

lie on the south side shall take their journey they shall blow

an alarm for their journeys .

107 But when the congregation is to be gathered together ye

shall blow but ye shall not sound an alarm .

108 And the sons of Aaron the priests shall blow with the

trumpets and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever

throughout your generations .

109 And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that

oppresseth you then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets and

ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God and ye shall be

saved from your enemies .

1010 Also in the day of your gladness and in your solemn days

and in the beginnings of your months ye shall blow with the

trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of

your peace offerings that they may be to you for a memorial

before your God I am the LORD your God .

1011 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second

month in the second year that the cloud was taken up from off

the tabernacle of the testimony .

1012 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the

wilderness of Sinai and the cloud rested in the wilderness of

Paran .

1013 And they first took their journey according to the

commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses .

1014 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the

children of Judah according to their armies and over his host

was Nahshon the son of Amminadab .

1015 And over the host of the tribe of the children of

Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar .

1016 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun

was Eliab the son of Helon .

1017 And the tabernacle was taken down and the sons of Gershon

and the sons of Merari set forward bearing the tabernacle .

1018 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward

according to their armies and over his host was Elizur the son

of Shedeur .

1019 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon

was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai .

1020 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was

Eliasaph the son of Deuel .

1021 And the Kohathites set forward bearing the sanctuary and

the other did set up the tabernacle against they came .

1022 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim

set forward according to their armies and over his host was

Elishama the son of Ammihud .

1023 And over the host of the tribe of the children of

Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur .

1024 And over the host of the tribe of the children of

Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni .

1025 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set

forward which was the rereward of all the camps throughout their

hosts and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai .

1026 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher

was Pagiel the son of Ocran .

1027 And over the host of the tribe of the children of

Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan .

1028 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel

according to their armies when they set forward .

1029 And Moses said unto Hobab the son of Raguel the Midianite

Moses' father in law We are journeying unto the place of which

the LORD said I will give it you come thou with us and we will

do thee good for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel .

1030 And he said unto him I will not go but I will depart to

mine own land and to my kindred .

1031 And he said Leave us not I pray thee forasmuch as thou

knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness and thou mayest

be to us instead of eyes .

1032 And it shall be if thou go with us yea it shall be that

what goodness the LORD shall do unto us the same will we do unto

thee .

1033 And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days'

journey and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them

in the three days' journey to search out a resting place for

them .

1034 And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day when they

went out of the camp .

1035 And it came to pass when the ark set forward that Moses

said Rise up LORD and let thine enemies be scattered and let

them that hate thee flee before thee .

1036 And when it rested he said Return O LORD unto the many

thousands of Israel .

* 111 And when the people complained it displeased the LORD and

the LORD heard it and his anger was kindled and the fire of the

LORD burnt among them and consumed them that were in the

uttermost parts of the camp .

112 And the people cried unto Moses and when Moses prayed unto

the LORD the fire was quenched .

113 And he called the name of the place Taberah because the

fire of the LORD burnt among them .

114 And the mixed multitude that was among them fell a lusting

and the children of Israel also wept again and said Who shall

give us flesh to eat .

115 We remember the fish which we did eat in Egypt freely the

cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the

garlic .

116 But now our soul is dried away there is nothing at all

beside this manna before our eyes .

117 And the manna was as coriander seed and the colour thereof

as the colour of bdellium .

118 And the people went about and gathered it and ground it in

mills or beat it in a mortar and baked it in pans and made cakes

of it and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil .

119 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night the manna

fell upon it .

1110 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their

families every man in the door of his tent and the anger of the

LORD was kindled greatly Moses also was displeased .

1111 And Moses said unto the LORD Wherefore hast thou

afflicted thy servant and wherefore have I not found favour in

thy sight that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me

1112 Have I conceived all this people have I begotten them

that thou shouldest say unto me Carry them in thy bosom as a

nursing father beareth the sucking child unto the land which

thou swarest unto their fathers .

1113 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people

for they weep unto me saying Give us flesh that we may eat .

1114 I am not able to bear all this people alone because it is

too heavy for me .

1115 And if thou deal thus with me kill me I pray thee out of

hand if I have found favour in thy sight and let me not see my

wretchedness .

1116 And the LORD said unto Moses Gather unto me seventy men

of the elders of Israel whom thou knowest to be the elders of

the people and officers over them and bring them unto the

tabernacle of the congregation that they may stand there with

thee .

1117 And I will come down and talk with thee there and I will

take of the spirit which is upon thee and will put it upon them

and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee that thou

bear it not thyself alone .

1118 And say thou unto the people Sanctify yourselves against

to morrow and ye shall eat flesh for ye have wept in the ears of

the LORD saying Who shall give us flesh to eat for it was well

with us in Egypt therefore the LORD will give you flesh and ye

shall eat .

1119 Ye shall not eat one day nor two days nor five days

neither ten days nor twenty days .

1120 But even a whole month until it come out at your nostrils

and it be loathsome unto you because that ye have despised the

LORD which is among you and have wept before him saying Why came

we forth out of Egypt .

1121 And Moses said The people among whom I am are six hundred

thousand footmen and thou hast said I will give them flesh that

they may eat a whole month .

1122 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them to

suffice them or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered

together for them to suffice them .

1123 And the LORD said unto Moses Is the LORD'S hand waxed

short thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto

thee or not .

1124 And Moses went out and told the people the words of the

LORD and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people

and set them round about the tabernacle .

1125 And the LORD came down in a cloud and spake unto him and

took of the spirit that was upon him and gave it unto the

seventy elders and it came to pass that when the spirit rested

upon them they prophesied and did not cease .

1126 But there remained two of the men in the camp the name of

the one was Eldad and the name of the other Medad and the spirit

rested upon them and they were of them that were written but

went not out unto the tabernacle and they prophesied in the camp

1127 And there ran a young man and told Moses and said Eldad

and Medad do prophesy in the camp .

1128 And Joshua the son of Nun the servant of Moses one of his

young men answered and said My lord Moses forbid them .

1129 And Moses said unto him Enviest thou for my sake would

God that all the LORD'S people were prophets and that the LORD

would put his spirit upon them .

1130 And Moses gat him into the camp he and the elders of

Israel .

1131 And there went forth a wind from the LORD and brought

quails from the sea and let them fall by the camp as it were a

day's journey on this side and as it were a day's journey on the

other side round about the camp and as it were two cubits high

upon the face of the earth .

1132 And the people stood up all that day and all that night

and all the next day and they gathered the quails he that

gathered least gathered ten homers and they spread them all

abroad for themselves round about the camp .

1133 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth ere it

was chewed the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people

and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague .

1134 And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah

because there they buried the people that lusted .

1135 And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto

Hazeroth and abode at Hazeroth .

* 121 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the

Ethiopian woman whom he had married for he had married an

Ethiopian woman .

122 And they said Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses

hath he not spoken also by us And the LORD heard it .

123 (Now the man Moses was very meek above all the men which

were upon the face of the earth .

124 And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses and unto Aaron and

unto Miriam Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the

congregation And they three came out .

125 And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud and

stood in the door of the tabernacle and called Aaron and Miriam

and they both came forth .

126 And he said Hear now my words If there be a prophet among

you I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision and

will speak unto him in a dream .

127 My servant Moses is not so who is faithful in all mine

house .

128 With him will I speak mouth to mouth even apparently and

not in dark speeches and the similitude of the LORD shall he

behold wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my

servant Moses .

129 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them and he

departed .

1210 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle and behold

Miriam became leprous white as snow and Aaron looked upon Miriam

and behold she was leprous .

1211 And Aaron said unto Moses Alas my lord I beseech thee lay

not the sin upon us wherein we have done foolishly and wherein

we have sinned .

1212 Let her not be as one dead of whom the flesh is half

consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb .

1213 And Moses cried unto the LORD saying Heal her now O God I

beseech thee .

1214 And the LORD said unto Moses If her father had but spit

in her face should she not be ashamed seven days let her be shut

out from the camp seven days and after that let her be received

in again .

1215 And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days and the

people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again 1216 And

afterward the people removed from Hazeroth and pitched in the

wilderness of Paran .

* 131 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

132 Send thou men that they may search the land of Canaan

which I give unto the children of Israel of every tribe of their

fathers shall ye send a man every one a ruler among them .

133 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from

the wilderness of Paran all those men were heads of the children

of Israel .

134 And these were their names of the tribe of Reuben Shammua

the son of Zaccur .

135 Of the tribe of Simeon Shaphat the son of Hori .

136 Of the tribe of Judah Caleb the son of Jephunneh .

137 Of the tribe of Issachar Igal the son of Joseph .

138 Of the tribe of Ephraim Oshea the son of Nun .

139 Of the tribe of Benjamin Palti the son of Raphu .

1310 Of the tribe of Zebulun Gaddiel the son of Sodi .

1311 Of the tribe of Joseph namely of the tribe of Manasseh

Gaddi the son of Susi .

1312 Of the tribe of Dan Ammiel the son of Gemalli .

1313 Of the tribe of Asher Sethur the son of Michael .

1314 Of the tribe of Naphtali Nahbi the son of Vophsi .

1315 Of the tribe of Gad Geuel the son of Machi .

1316 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy

out the land And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua .

1317 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan and

said unto them Get you up this way southward and go up into the

mountain .

1318 And see the land what it is and the people that dwelleth

therein whether they be strong or weak few or many .

1319 And what the land is that they dwell in whether it be

good or bad and what cities they be that they dwell in whether

in tents or in strong holds .

1320 And what the land is whether it be fat or lean whether

there be wood therein or not And be ye of good courage and bring

of the fruit of the land Now the time was the time of the

firstripe grapes .

1321 So they went up and searched the land from the wilderness

of Zin unto Rehob as men come to Hamath .

1322 And they ascended by the south and came unto Hebron where

Ahiman Sheshai and Talmai the children of Anak were (Now Hebron

was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt .

1323 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol and cut down from

thence a branch with one cluster of grapes and they bare it

between two upon a staff and they brought of the pomegranates

and of the figs .

1324 The place was called the brook Eshcol because of the

cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from

thence .

1325 And they returned from searching of the land after forty

days .

1326 And they went and came to Moses and to Aaron and to all

the congregation of the children of Israel unto the wilderness

of Paran to Kadesh and brought back word unto them and unto all

the congregation and showed them the fruit of the land .

1327 And they told him and said We came unto the land whither

thou sentest us and surely it floweth with milk and honey and

this is the fruit of it .

1328 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land

and the cities are walled and very great and moreover we saw the

children of Anak there .

1329 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south and the

Hittites and the Jebusites and the Amorites dwell in the

mountains and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and by the coast

of Jordan .

1330 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses and said Let us

go up at once and possess it for we are well able to overcome it

1331 But the men that went up with him said We be not able to

go up against the people for they are stronger than we .

1332 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they

had searched unto the children of Israel saying The land through

which we have gone to search it is a land that eateth up the

inhabitants thereof and all the people that we saw in it are men

of a great stature .

1333 And there we saw the giants the sons of Anak which come

of the giants and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers and

so we were in their sight .

* 141 And all the congregation lifted up their voice and cried

and the people wept that night .

142 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and

against Aaron and the whole congregation said unto them Would

God that we had died in the land of Egypt or would God we had

died in this wilderness .

143 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land to

fall by the sword that our wives and our children should be a

prey were it not better for us to return into Egypt .

144 And they said one to another Let us make a captain and let

us return into Egypt .

145 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the

assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel .

146 And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh

which were of them that searched the land rent their clothes .

147 And they spake unto all the company of the children of

Israel saying The land which we passed through to search it is

an exceeding good land .

148 If the LORD delight in us then he will bring us into this

land and give it us a land which floweth with milk and honey .

149 Only rebel not ye against the LORD neither fear ye the

people of the land for they are bread for us their defence is

departed from them and the LORD is with us fear them not .

1410 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones And

the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the

congregation before all the children of Israel .

1411 And the LORD said unto Moses How long will this people

provoke me and how long will it be ere they believe me for all

the signs which I have showed among them .

1412 I will smite them with the pestilence and disinherit them

and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they .

1413 And Moses said unto the LORD Then the Egyptians shall

hear it (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from

among them .

1414 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land for

they have heard that thou LORD art among this people that thou

LORD art seen face to face and that thy cloud standeth over them

and that thou goest before them by day time in a pillar of a

cloud and in a pillar of fire by night .

1415 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man then

the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak saying .

1416 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into

the land which he sware unto them therefore he hath slain them

in the wilderness .

1417 And now I beseech thee let the power of my LORD be great

according as thou hast spoken saying .

1418 The LORD is longsuffering and of great mercy forgiving

iniquity and transgression and by no means clearing the guilty

visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the

third and fourth generation .

1419 Pardon I beseech thee the iniquity of this people

according unto the greatness of thy mercy and as thou hast

forgiven this people from Egypt even until now .

1420 And the LORD said I have pardoned according to thy word .

1421 But as truly as I live all the earth shall be filled with

the glory of the LORD .

1422 Because all those men which have seen my glory and my

miracles which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness and have

tempted me now these ten times and have not hearkened to my

voice .

1423 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto

their fathers neither shall any of them that provoked me see it .

1424 But my servant Caleb because he had another spirit with

him and hath followed me fully him will I bring into the land

whereinto he went and his seed shall possess it .

1425 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the

valley To morrow turn you and get you into the wilderness by the

way of the Red sea .

1426 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying .

1427 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation which

murmur against me I have heard the murmurings of the children of

Israel which they murmur against me .

1428 Say unto them As truly as I live saith the LORD as ye

have spoken in mine ears so will I do to you .

1429 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness and all that

were numbered of you according to your whole number from twenty

years old and upward which have murmured against me .

1430 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land concerning

which I sware to make you dwell therein save Caleb the son of

Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun .

1431 But your little ones which ye said should be a prey them

will I bring in and they shall know the land which ye have

despised .

1432 But as for you your carcases they shall fall in this

wilderness .

1433 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty

years and bear your whoredoms until your carcases be wasted in

the wilderness .

1434 After the number of the days in which ye searched the

land even forty days each day for a year shall ye bear your

iniquities even forty years and ye shall know my breach of

promise .

1435 I the LORD have said I will surely do it unto all this

evil congregation that are gathered together against me in this

wilderness they shall be consumed and there they shall die .

1436 And the men which Moses sent to search the land who

returned and made all the congregation to murmur against him by

bringing up a slander upon the land .

1437 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the

land died by the plague before the LORD .

1438 But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh

which were of the men that went to search the land lived still .

1439 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of

Israel and the people mourned greatly .

1440 And they rose up early in the morning and gat them up

into the top of the mountain saying Lo we be here and will go up

unto the place which the LORD hath promised for we have sinned .

1441 And Moses said Wherefore now do ye transgress the

commandment of the LORD but it shall not prosper .

1442 Go not up for the LORD is not among you that ye be not

smitten before your enemies .

1443 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before

you and ye shall fall by the sword because ye are turned away

from the LORD therefore the LORD will not be with you .

1444 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top nevertheless

the ark of the covenant of the LORD and Moses departed not out

of the camp .

1445 Then the Amalekites came down and the Canaanites which

dwelt in that hill and smote them and discomfited them even unto

Hormah .

* 151 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

152 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them When

ye be come into the land of your habitations which I give unto

you .

153 And will make an offering by fire unto the LORD a burnt

offering or a sacrifice in performing a vow or in a freewill

offering or in your solemn feasts to make a sweet savour unto

the LORD of the herd or of the flock .

154 Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD

bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the

fourth part of an hin of oil .

155 And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering

shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice for one

lamb .

156 Or for a ram thou shalt prepare for a meat offering two

tenth deals of flour mingled with the third part of an hin of

oil .

157 And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part

of an hin of wine for a sweet savour unto the LORD .

158 And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering or

for a sacrifice in performing a vow or peace offerings unto the

LORD .

159 Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of

three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil .

1510 And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of

wine for an offering made by fire of a sweet savour unto the

LORD .

1511 Thus shall it be done for one bullock or for one ram or

for a lamb or a kid .

1512 According to the number that ye shall prepare so shall ye

do to every one according to their number .

1513 All that are born of the country shall do these things

after this manner in offering an offering made by fire of a

sweet savour unto the LORD .

1514 And if a stranger sojourn with you or whosoever be among

you in your generations and will offer an offering made by fire

of a sweet savour unto the LORD as ye do so he shall do .

1515 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation

and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you an ordinance

for ever in your generations as ye are so shall the stranger be

before the LORD .

1516 One law and one manner shall be for you and for the

stranger that sojourneth with you .

1517 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1518 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them When

ye come into the land whither I bring you .

1519 Then it shall be that when ye eat of the bread of the

land ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the LORD .

1520 Ye shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for

an heave offering as ye do the heave offering of the

threshingfloor so shall ye heave it .

1521 Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an

heave offering in your generations .

1522 And if ye have erred and not observed all these

commandments which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses .

1523 Even all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of

Moses from the day that the LORD commanded Moses and

henceforward among your generations .

1524 Then it shall be if ought be committed by ignorance

without the knowledge of the congregation that all the

congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering

for a sweet savour unto the LORD with his meat offering and his

drink offering according to the manner and one kid of the goats

for a sin offering .

1525 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the

congregation of the children of Israel and it shall be forgiven

them for it is ignorance and they shall bring their offering a

sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD and their sin offering

before the LORD for their ignorance .

1526 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the

children of Israel and the stranger that sojourneth among them

seeing all the people were in ignorance .

1527 And if any soul sin through ignorance then he shall bring

a she goat of the first year for a sin offering .

1528 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that

sinneth ignorantly when he sinneth by ignorance before the LORD

to make an atonement for him and it shall be forgiven him .

1529 Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through

ignorance both for him that is born among the children of Israel

and for the stranger that sojourneth among them .

1530 But the soul that doeth ought presumptuously whether he

be born in the land or a stranger the same reproacheth the LORD

and that soul shall be cut off from among his people .

1531 Because he hath despised the word of the LORD and hath

broken his commandment that soul shall utterly be cut off his

iniquity shall be upon him .

1532 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness

they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day .

1533 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto

Moses and Aaron and unto all the congregation .

1534 And they put him in ward because it was not declared what

should be done to him .

1535 And the LORD said unto Moses The man shall be surely put

to death all the congregation shall stone him with stones

without the camp .

1536 And all the congregation brought him without the camp and

stoned him with stones and he died as the LORD commanded Moses .

1537 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1538 Speak unto the children of Israel and bid them that they

make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout

their generations and that they put upon the fringe of the

borders a ribband of blue .

1539 And it shall be unto you for a fringe that ye may look

upon it and remember all the commandments of the LORD and do

them and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes

after which ye use to go a whoring .

1540 That ye may remember and do all my commandments and be

holy unto your God .

1541 I am the LORD your God which brought you out of the land

of Egypt to be your God I am the LORD your God .

* 161 Now Korah the son of Izhar the son of Kohath the son of

Levi and Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab and On the son of

Peleth sons of Reuben took men .

162 And they rose up before Moses with certain of the children

of Israel two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly famous

in the congregation men of renown .

163 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and

against Aaron and said unto them Ye take too much upon you

seeing all the congregation are holy every one of them and the

LORD is among them wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above

the congregation of the LORD .

164 And when Moses heard it he fell upon his face .

165 And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company saying

Even to morrow the LORD will show who are his and who is holy

and will cause him to come near unto him even him whom he hath

chosen will he cause to come near unto him .

166 This do Take you censers Korah and all his company .

167 And put fire therein and put incense in them before the

LORD to morrow and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth

choose he shall be holy ye take too much upon you ye sons of

Levi .

168 And Moses said unto Korah Hear I pray you ye sons of Levi .

169 Seemeth it but a small thing unto you that the God of

Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel to

bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of

the LORD and to stand before the congregation to minister unto

them .

1610 And he hath brought thee near to him and all thy brethren

the sons of Levi with thee and seek ye the priesthood also .

1611 For which cause both thou and all thy company are

gathered together against the LORD and what is Aaron that ye

murmur against him .

1612 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram the sons of

Eliab which said We will not come up .

1613 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a

land that floweth with milk and honey to kill us in the

wilderness except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us .

1614 Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that

floweth with milk and honey or given us inheritance of fields

and vineyards wilt thou put out the eyes of these men we will

not come up .

1615 And Moses was very wroth and said unto the LORD Respect

not thou their offering I have not taken one ass from them

neither have I hurt one of them .

1616 And Moses said unto Korah Be thou and all thy company

before the LORD thou and they and Aaron to morrow .

1617 And take every man his censer and put incense in them and

bring ye before the LORD every man his censer two hundred and

fifty censers thou also and Aaron each of you his censer .

1618 And they took every man his censer and put fire in them

and laid incense thereon and stood in the door of the tabernacle

of the congregation with Moses and Aaron .

1619 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto

the door of the tabernacle of the congregation and the glory of

the LORD appeared unto all the congregation .

1620 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying .

1621 Separate yourselves from among this congregation that I

may consume them in a moment .

1622 And they fell upon their faces and said O God the God of

the spirits of all flesh shall one man sin and wilt thou be

wroth with all the congregation .

1623 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1624 Speak unto the congregation saying Get you up from about

the tabernacle of Korah Dathan and Abiram .

1625 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram and the

elders of Israel followed him .

1626 And he spake unto the congregation saying Depart I pray

you from the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing of

theirs lest ye be consumed in all their sins .

1627 So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah Dathan and

Abiram on every side and Dathan and Abiram came out and stood in

the door of their tents and their wives and their sons and their

little children .

1628 And Moses said Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath

sent me to do all these works for I have not done them of mine

own mind .

1629 If these men die the common death of all men or if they

be visited after the visitation of all men then the LORD hath

not sent me .

1630 But if the LORD make a new thing and the earth open her

mouth and swallow them up with all that appertain unto them and

they go down quick into the pit then ye shall understand that

these men have provoked the LORD .

1631 And it came to pass as he had made an end of speaking all

these words that the ground clave asunder that was under them .

1632 And the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them up and

their houses and all the men that appertained unto Korah and all

their goods .

1633 They and all that appertained to them went down alive

into the pit and the earth closed upon them and they perished

from among the congregation .

1634 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry

of them for they said Lest the earth swallow us up also .

1635 And there came out a fire from the LORD and consumed the

two hundred and fifty men that offered incense .

1636 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1637 Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest that he

take up the censers out of the burning and scatter thou the fire

yonder for they are hallowed .

1638 The censers of these sinners against their own souls let

them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar for they

offered them before the LORD therefore they are hallowed and

they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel .

1639 And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers wherewith

they that were burnt had offered and they were made broad plates

for a covering of the altar .

1640 To be a memorial unto the children of Israel that no

stranger which is not of the seed of Aaron come near to offer

incense before the LORD that he be not as Korah and as his

company as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses .

1641 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of

Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron saying Ye have

killed the people of the LORD .

1642 And it came to pass when the congregation was gathered

against Moses and against Aaron that they looked toward the

tabernacle of the congregation and behold the cloud covered it

and the glory of the LORD appeared .

1643 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the

congregation .

1644 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1645 Get you up from among this congregation that I may

consume them as in a moment And they fell upon their faces .

1646 And Moses said unto Aaron Take a censer and put fire

therein from off the altar and put on incense and go quickly

unto the congregation and make an atonement for them for there

is wrath gone out from the LORD the plague is begun .

1647 And Aaron took as Moses commanded and ran into the midst

of the congregation and behold the plague was begun among the

people and he put on incense and made an atonement for the

people .

1648 And he stood between the dead and the living and the

plague was stayed .

1649 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand

and seven hundred beside them that died about the matter of

Korah .

1650 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the

tabernacle of the congregation and the plague was stayed .

* 171 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

172 Speak unto the children of Israel and take of every one of

them a rod according to the house of their fathers of all their

princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods

write thou every man's name upon his rod .

173 And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi for

one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers .

174 And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the

congregation before the testimony where I will meet with you .

175 And it shall come to pass that the man's rod whom I shall

choose shall blossom and I will make to cease from me the

murmurings of the children of Israel whereby they murmur against

you .

176 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel and every one

of their princes gave him a rod apiece for each prince one

according to their fathers' houses even twelve rods and the rod

of Aaron was among their rods .

177 And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the

tabernacle of witness .

178 And it came to pass that on the morrow Moses went into the

tabernacle of witness and behold the rod of Aaron for the house

of Levi was budded and brought forth buds and bloomed blossoms

and yielded almonds .

179 And Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD

unto all the children of Israel and they looked and took every

man his rod .

1710 And the LORD said unto Moses Bring Aaron's rod again

before the testimony to be kept for a token against the rebels

and thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me that

they die not .

1711 And Moses did so as the LORD commanded him so did he .

1712 And the children of Israel spake unto Moses saying Behold

we die we perish we all perish .

1713 Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of

the LORD shall die shall we be consumed with dying .

* 181 And the LORD said unto Aaron Thou and thy sons and thy

father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the

sanctuary and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the

iniquity of your priesthood .

182 And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi the tribe of

thy father bring thou with thee that they may be joined unto

thee and minister unto thee but thou and thy sons with thee

shall minister before the tabernacle of witness .

183 And they shall keep thy charge and the charge of all the

tabernacle only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the

sanctuary and the altar that neither they nor ye also die .

184 And they shall be joined unto thee and keep the charge of

the tabernacle of the congregation for all the service of the

tabernacle and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you .

185 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary and the

charge of the altar that there be no wrath any more upon the

children of Israel .

186 And I behold I have taken your brethren the Levites from

among the children of Israel to you they are given as a gift for

the LORD to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation

187 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your

priest's office for every thing of the altar and within the veil

and ye shall serve I have given your priest's office unto you as

a service of gift and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put

to death .

188 And the LORD spake unto Aaron Behold I also have given

thee the charge of mine heave offerings of all the hallowed

things of the children of Israel unto thee have I given them by

reason of the anointing and to thy sons by an ordinance for ever

189 This shall be thine of the most holy things reserved from

the fire every oblation of theirs every meat offering of theirs

and every sin offering of theirs and every trespass offering of

theirs which they shall render unto me shall be most holy for

thee and for thy sons .

1810 In the most holy place shalt thou eat it every male shall

eat it it shall be holy unto thee .

1811 And this is thine the heave offering of their gift with

all the wave offerings of the children of Israel I have given

them unto thee and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee by

a statute for ever every one that is clean in thy house shall

eat of it .

1812 All the best of the oil and all the best of the wine and

of the wheat the firstfruits of them which they shall offer unto

the LORD them have I given thee .

1813 And whatsoever is first ripe in the land which they shall

bring unto the LORD shall be thine every one that is clean in

thine house shall eat of it .

1814 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine .

1815 Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh which

they bring unto the LORD whether it be of men or beasts shall be

thine nevertheless the firstborn of man shalt thou surely redeem

and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem .

1816 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt

thou redeem according to thine estimation for the money of five

shekels after the shekel of the sanctuary which is twenty gerahs

1817 But the firstling of a cow or the firstling of a sheep or

the firstling of a goat thou shalt not redeem they are holy thou

shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar and shalt burn their

fat for an offering made by fire for a sweet savour unto the

LORD .

1818 And the flesh of them shall be thine as the wave breast

and as the right shoulder are thine .

1819 All the heave offerings of the holy things which the

children of Israel offer unto the LORD have I given thee and thy

sons and thy daughters with thee by a statute for ever it is a

covenant of salt for ever before the LORD unto thee and to thy

seed with thee .

1820 And the LORD spake unto Aaron Thou shalt have no

inheritance in their land neither shalt thou have any part among

them I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of

Israel .

1821 And behold I have given the children of Levi all the

tenth in Israel for an inheritance for their service which they

serve even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation .

1822 Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh

the tabernacle of the congregation lest they bear sin and die .

1823 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of

the congregation and they shall bear their iniquity it shall be

a statute for ever throughout your generations that among the

children of Israel they have no inheritance .

1824 But the tithes of the children of Israel which they offer

as an heave offering unto the LORD I have given to the Levites

to inherit therefore I have said unto them Among the children of

Israel they shall have no inheritance .

1825 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

1826 Thus speak unto the Levites and say unto them When ye

take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you

from them for your inheritance then ye shall offer up an heave

offering of it for the LORD even a tenth part of the tithe .

1827 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you

as though it were the corn of the threshingfloor and as the

fulness of the winepress .

1828 Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the LORD

of all your tithes which ye receive of the children of Israel

and ye shall give thereof the LORD'S heave offering to Aaron the

priest .

1829 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering

of the LORD of all the best thereof even the hallowed part

thereof out of it .

1830 Therefore thou shalt say unto them When ye have heaved

the best thereof from it then it shall be counted unto the

Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor and as the

increase of the winepress .

1831 And ye shall eat it in every place ye and your households

for it is your reward for your service in the tabernacle of the

congregation .

1832 And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it when ye have

heaved from it the best of it neither shall ye pollute the holy

things of the children of Israel lest ye die .

* 191 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying .

192 This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath

commanded saying Speak unto the children of Israel that they

bring thee a red heifer without spot wherein is no blemish and

upon which never came yoke .

193 And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest that he may

bring her forth without the camp and one shall slay her before

his face .

194 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his

finger and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle

of the congregation seven times .

195 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight her skin and

her flesh and her blood with her dung shall he burn.

196 And the priest shall take cedar wood and hyssop and

scarlet and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer .

197 Then the priest shall wash his clothes and he shall bathe

his flesh in water and afterward he shall come into the camp and

the priest shall be unclean until the even .

198 And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water

and bathe his flesh in water and shall be unclean until the even

199 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the

heifer and lay them up without the camp in a clean place and it

shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for

a water of separation it is a purification for sin .

1910 And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash

his clothes and be unclean until the even and it shall be unto

the children of Israel and unto the stranger that sojourneth

among them for a statute for ever .

1911 He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be

unclean seven days .

1912 He shall purify himself with it on the third day and on

the seventh day he shall be clean but if he purify not himself

the third day then the seventh day he shall not be clean .

1913 Whosoever toucheth the dead body of any man that is dead

and purifieth not himself defileth the tabernacle of the LORD

and that soul shall be cut off from Israel because the water of

separation was not sprinkled upon him he shall be unclean his

uncleanness is yet upon him .

1914 This is the law when a man dieth in a tent all that come

into the tent and all that is in the tent shall be unclean seven

days .

1915 And every open vessel which hath no covering bound upon

it is unclean .

1916 And whosoever toucheth one that is slain with a sword in

the open fields or a dead body or a bone of a man or a grave

shall be unclean seven days .

1917 And for an unclean person they shall take of the ashes of

the burnt heifer of purification for sin and running water shall

be put thereto in a vessel .

1918 And a clean person shall take hyssop and dip it in the

water and sprinkle it upon the tent and upon all the vessels and

upon the persons that were there and upon him that touched a

bone or one slain or one dead or a grave .

1919 And the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on

the third day and on the seventh day and on the seventh day he

shall purify himself and wash his clothes and bathe himself in

water and shall be clean at even .

1920 But the man that shall be unclean and shall not purify

himself that soul shall be cut off from among the congregation

because he hath defiled the sanctuary of the LORD the water of

separation hath not been sprinkled upon him he is unclean .

1921 And it shall be a perpetual statute unto them that he

that sprinkleth the water of separation shall wash his clothes

and he that toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean

until even .

1922 And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be

unclean and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until

even .

* 201 Then came the children of Israel even the whole

congregation into the desert of Zin in the first month and the

people abode in Kadesh and Miriam died there and was buried

there .

202 And there was no water for the congregation and they

gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron .

203 And the people chided with Moses and spake saying Would

God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD .

204 And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD

into this wilderness that we and our cattle should die there .

205 And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt to

bring us in unto this evil place it is no place of seed or of

figs or of vines or of pomegranates neither is there any water

to drink .

206 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly

unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation and they

fell upon their faces and the glory of the LORD appeared unto

them .

207 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

208 Take the rod and gather thou the assembly together thou

and Aaron thy brother and speak ye unto the rock before their

eyes and it shall give forth his water and thou shalt bring

forth to them water out of the rock so thou shalt give the

congregation and their beasts drink .

209 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD as he

commanded him .

2010 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together

before the rock and he said unto them Hear now ye rebels must we

fetch you water out of this rock .

2011 And Moses lifted up his hand and with his rod he smote

the rock twice and the water came out abundantly and the

congregation drank and their beasts also .

2012 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron Because ye

believed me not to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of

Israel therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the

land which I have given them .

2013 This is the water of Meribah because the children of

Israel strove with the LORD and he was sanctified in them .

2014 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of

Edom Thus saith thy brother Israel Thou knowest all the travail

that hath befallen us .

2015 How our fathers went down into Egypt and we have dwelt in

Egypt a long time and the Egyptians vexed us and our fathers .

2016 And when we cried unto the LORD he heard our voice and

sent an angel and hath brought us forth out of Egypt and behold

we are in Kadesh a city in the uttermost of thy border .

2017 Let us pass I pray thee through thy country we will not

pass through the fields or through the vineyards neither will we

drink of the water of the wells we will go by the king's high

way we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left until we

have passed thy borders .

2018 And Edom said unto him Thou shalt not pass by me lest I

come out against thee with the sword .

2019 And the children of Israel said unto him We will go by

the high way and if I and my cattle drink of thy water then I

will pay for it I will only without doing any thing else go

through on my feet .

2020 And he said Thou shalt not go through And Edom came out

against him with much people and with a strong hand .

2021 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his

border wherefore Israel turned away from him .

2022 And the children of Israel even the whole congregation

journeyed from Kadesh and came unto mount Hor .

2023 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor by

the coast of the land of Edom saying .

2024 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people for he shall not

enter into the land which I have given unto the children of

Israel because ye rebelled against my word at the water of

Meribah .

2025 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son and bring them up unto

mount Hor .

2026 And strip Aaron of his garments and put them upon Eleazar

his son and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people and shall

die there .

2027 And Moses did as the LORD commanded and they went up into

mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation .

2028 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them

upon Eleazar his son and Aaron died there in the top of the

mount and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount .

2029 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead

they mourned for Aaron thirty days even all the house of Israel .

* 211 And when king Arad the Canaanite which dwelt in the south

heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies then he

fought against Israel and took some of them prisoners .

212 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD and said If thou wilt

indeed deliver this people into my hand then I will utterly

destroy their cities .

213 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel and

delivered up the Canaanites and they utterly destroyed them and

their cities and he called the name of the place Hormah .

214 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red

sea to compass the land of Edom and the soul of the people was

much discouraged because of the way .

215 And the people spake against God and against Moses

Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the

wilderness for there is no bread neither is there any water and

our soul loatheth this light bread .

216 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people and they

bit the people and much people of Israel died .

217 Therefore the people came to Moses and said We have sinned

for we have spoken against the LORD and against thee pray unto

the LORD that he take away the serpents from us And Moses prayed

for the people .

218 And the LORD said unto Moses Make thee a fiery serpent and

set it upon a pole and it shall come to pass that every one that

is bitten when he looketh upon it shall live .

219 And Moses made a serpent of brass and put it upon a pole

and it came to pass that if a serpent had bitten any man when he

beheld the serpent of brass he lived .

2110 And the children of Israel set forward and pitched in

Oboth .

2111 And they journeyed from Oboth and pitched at Ijeabarim in

the wilderness which is before Moab toward the sunrising .

2112 From thence they removed and pitched in the valley of

Zared .

2113 From thence they removed and pitched on the other side of

Arnon which is in the wilderness that cometh out of the coasts

of the Amorites for Arnon is the border of Moab between Moab and

the Amorites .

2114 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the LORD

What he did in the Red sea and in the brooks of Arnon .

2115 And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the

dwelling of Ar and lieth upon the border of Moab .

2116 And from thence they went to Beer that is the well

whereof the LORD spake unto Moses Gather the people together and

I will give them water .

2117 Then Israel sang this song Spring up O well sing ye unto

it .

2118 The princes digged the well the nobles of the people

digged it by the direction of the lawgiver with their staves And

from the wilderness they went to Mattanah .

2119 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel and from Nahaliel to Bamoth

2120 And from Bamoth in the valley that is in the country of

Moab to the top of Pisgah which looketh toward Jeshimon .

2121 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the

Amorites saying .

2122 Let me pass through thy land we will not turn into the

fields or into the vineyards we will not drink of the waters of

the well but we will go along by the king's high way until we be

past thy borders .

2123 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his

border but Sihon gathered all his people together and went out

against Israel into the wilderness and he came to Jahaz and

fought against Israel .

2124 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword and

possessed his land from Arnon unto Jabbok even unto the children

of Ammon for the border of the children of Ammon was strong .

2125 And Israel took all these cities and Israel dwelt in all

the cities of the Amorites in Heshbon and in all the villages

thereof .

2126 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the

Amorites who had fought against the former king of Moab and

taken all his land out of his hand even unto Arnon .

2127 Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say Come into

Heshbon let the city of Sihon be built and prepared .

2128 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon a flame from the

city of Sihon it hath consumed Ar of Moab and the lords of the

high places of Arnon .

2129 Woe to thee Moab thou art undone O people of Chemosh he

hath given his sons that escaped and his daughters into

captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites .

2130 We have shot at them Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon

and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah which reacheth unto

Medeba .

2131 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites .

2132 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer and they took the

villages thereof and drove out the Amorites that were there .

2133 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan and Og

the king of Bashan went out against them he and all his people

to the battle at Edrei .

2134 And the LORD said unto Moses Fear him not for I have

delivered him into thy hand and all his people and his land and

thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the

Amorites which dwelt at Heshbon .

2135 So they smote him and his sons and all his people until

there was none left him alive and they possessed his land .

* 221 And the children of Israel set forward and pitched in the

plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho .

222 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done

to the Amorites .

223 And Moab was sore afraid of the people because they were

many and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel .

224 And Moab said unto the elders of Midian Now shall this

company lick up all that are round about us as the ox licketh up

the grass of the field And Balak the son of Zippor was king of

the Moabites at that time .

225 He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor

to Pethor which is by the river of the land of the children of

his people to call him saying Behold there is a people come out

from Egypt behold they cover the face of the earth and they

abide over against me .

226 Come now therefore I pray thee curse me this people for

they are too mighty for me peradventure I shall prevail that we

may smite them and that I may drive them out of the land for I

wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed and he whom thou

cursest is cursed .

227 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed

with the rewards of divination in their hand and they came unto

Balaam and spake unto him the words of Balak .

228 And he said unto them Lodge here this night and I will

bring you word again as the LORD shall speak unto me and the

princes of Moab abode with Balaam .

229 And God came unto Balaam and said What men are these with

thee .

2210 And Balaam said unto God Balak the son of Zippor king of

Moab hath sent unto me saying .

2211 Behold there is a people come out of Egypt which covereth

the face of the earth come now curse me them peradventure I

shall be able to overcome them and drive them out .

2212 And God said unto Balaam Thou shalt not go with them thou

shalt not curse the people for they are blessed .

2213 And Balaam rose up in the morning and said unto the

princes of Balak Get you into your land for the LORD refuseth to

give me leave to go with you .

2214 And the princes of Moab rose up and they went unto Balak

and said Balaam refuseth to come with us .

2215 And Balak sent yet again princes more and more honourable

than they .

2216 And they came to Balaam and said to him Thus saith Balak

the son of Zippor Let nothing I pray thee hinder thee from

coming unto me .

2217 For I will promote thee unto very great honour and I will

do whatsoever thou sayest unto me come therefore I pray thee

curse me this people .

2218 And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak

If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold I

cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God to do less or more .

2219 Now therefore I pray you tarry ye also here this night

that I may know what the LORD will say unto me more .

2220 And God came unto Balaam at night and said unto him If

the men come to call thee rise up and go with them but yet the

word which I shall say unto thee that shalt thou do.

2221 And Balaam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass and

went with the princes of Moab .

2222 And God's anger was kindled because he went and the angel

of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him Now he

was riding upon his ass and his two servants were with him .

2223 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way

and his sword drawn in his hand and the ass turned aside out of

the way and went into the field and Balaam smote the ass to turn

her into the way .

2224 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the

vineyards a wall being on this side and a wall on that side .

2225 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD she thrust

herself unto the wall and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall

and he smote her again .

2226 And the angel of the LORD went further and stood in a

narrow place where was no way to turn either to the right hand

or to the left .

2227 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD she fell down

under Balaam and Balaam's anger was kindled and he smote the ass

with a staff .

2228 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass and she said

unto Balaam What have I done unto thee that thou hast smitten me

these three times .

2229 And Balaam said unto the ass Because thou hast mocked me

I would there were a sword in mine hand for now would I kill

thee .

2230 And the ass said unto Balaam Am not I thine ass upon

which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day was

I ever wont to do so unto thee And he said Nay .

2231 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam and he saw the

angel of the LORD standing in the way and his sword drawn in his

hand and he bowed down his head and fell flat on his face .

2232 And the angel of the LORD said unto him Wherefore hast

thou smitten thine ass these three times behold I went out to

withstand thee because thy way is perverse before me .

2233 And the ass saw me and turned from me these three times

unless she had turned from me surely now also I had slain thee

and saved her alive .

2234 And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD I have sinned

for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me now

therefore if it displease thee I will get me back again .

2235 And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam Go with the

men but only the word that I shall speak unto thee that thou

shalt speak So Balaam went with the princes of Balak .

2236 And when Balak heard that Balaam was come he went out to

meet him unto a city of Moab which is in the border of Arnon

which is in the utmost coast .

2237 And Balak said unto Balaam Did I not earnestly send unto

thee to call thee wherefore camest thou not unto me am I not

able indeed to promote thee to honour .

2238 And Balaam said unto Balak Lo I am come unto thee have I

now any power at all to say any thing the word that God putteth

in my mouth that shall I speak .

2239 And Balaam went with Balak and they came unto

Kirjathhuzoth .

2240 And Balak offered oxen and sheep and sent to Balaam and

to the princes that were with him .

2241 And it came to pass on the morrow that Balak took Balaam

and brought him up into the high places of Baal that thence he

might see the utmost part of the people .

* 231 And Balaam said unto Balak Build me here seven altars and

prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams .

232 And Balak did as Balaam had spoken and Balak and Balaam

offered on every altar a bullock and a ram .

233 And Balaam said unto Balak Stand by thy burnt offering and

I will go peradventure the LORD will come to meet me and

whatsoever he showeth me I will tell thee And he went to an high

place .

234 And God met Balaam and he said unto him I have prepared

seven altars and I have offered upon every altar a bullock and a

ram .

235 And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth and said Return

unto Balak and thus thou shalt speak .

236 And he returned unto him and lo he stood by his burnt

sacrifice he and all the princes of Moab .

237 And he took up his parable and said Balak the king of Moab

hath brought me from Aram out of the mountains of the east

saying Come curse me Jacob and come defy Israel .

238 How shall I curse whom God hath not cursed or how shall I

defy whom the LORD hath not defied .

239 For from the top of the rocks I see him and from the hills

I behold him lo the people shall dwell alone and shall not be

reckoned among the nations .

2310 Who can count the dust of Jacob and the number of the

fourth part of Israel Let me die the death of the righteous and

let my last end be like his .

2311 And Balak said unto Balaam What hast thou done unto me I

took thee to curse mine enemies and behold thou hast blessed

them altogether .

2312 And he answered and said Must I not take heed to speak

that which the LORD hath put in my mouth .

2313 And Balak said unto him Come I pray thee with me unto

another place from whence thou mayest see them thou shalt see

but the utmost part of them and shalt not see them all and curse

me them from thence .

2314 And he brought him into the field of Zophim to the top of

Pisgah and built seven altars and offered a bullock and a ram on

every altar .

2315 And he said unto Balak Stand here by thy burnt offering

while I meet the LORD yonder .

2316 And the LORD met Balaam and put a word in his mouth and

said Go again unto Balak and say thus .

2317 And when he came to him behold he stood by his burnt

offering and the princes of Moab with him And Balak said unto

him What hath the LORD spoken .

2318 And he took up his parable and said Rise up Balak and

hear hearken unto me thou son of Zippor .

2319 God is not a man that he should lie neither the son of

man that he should repent hath he said and shall he not do it or

hath he spoken and shall he not make it good .

2320 Behold I have received commandment to bless and he hath

blessed and I cannot reverse it .

2321 He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob neither hath he seen

perverseness in Israel the LORD his God is with him and the

shout of a king is among them .

2322 God brought them out of Egypt he hath as it were the

strength of an unicorn .

2323 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob neither is

there any divination against Israel according to this time it

shall be said of Jacob and of Israel What hath God wrought .

2324 Behold the people shall rise up as a great lion and lift

up himself as a young lion he shall not lie down until he eat of

the prey and drink the blood of the slain .

2325 And Balak said unto Balaam Neither curse them at all nor

bless them at all .

2326 But Balaam answered and said unto Balak Told not I thee

saying All that the LORD speaketh that I must do .

2327 And Balak said unto Balaam Come I pray thee I will bring

thee unto another place peradventure it will please God that

thou mayest curse me them from thence .

2328 And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor that

looketh toward Jeshimon .

2329 And Balaam said unto Balak Build me here seven altars and

prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams .

2330 And Balak did as Balaam had said and offered a bullock

and a ram on every altar .

* 241 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless

Israel he went not as at other times to seek for enchantments

but he set his face toward the wilderness .

242 And Balaam lifted up his eyes and he saw Israel abiding in

his tents according to their tribes and the spirit of God came

upon him .

243 And he took up his parable and said Balaam the son of Beor

hath said and the man whose eyes are open hath said .

244 He hath said which heard the words of God which saw the

vision of the Almighty falling into a trance but having his eyes

open .

245 How goodly are thy tents O Jacob and thy tabernacles O

Israel .

246 As the valleys are they spread forth as gardens by the

river's side as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath

planted and as cedar trees beside the waters .

247 He shall pour the water out of his buckets and his seed

shall be in many waters and his king shall be higher than Agag

and his kingdom shall be exalted .

248 God brought him forth out of Egypt he hath as it were the

strength of an unicorn he shall eat up the nations his enemies

and shall break their bones and pierce them through with his

arrows .

249 He couched he lay down as a lion and as a great lion who

shall stir him up Blessed is he that blesseth thee and cursed is

he that curseth thee .

2410 And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam and he smote

his hands together and Balak said unto Balaam I called thee to

curse mine enemies and behold thou hast altogether blessed them

these three times .

2411 Therefore now flee thou to thy place I thought to promote

thee unto great honour but lo the LORD hath kept thee back from

honour .

2412 And Balaam said unto Balak Spake I not also to thy

messengers which thou sentest unto me saying .

2413 If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold

I cannot go beyond the commandment of the LORD to do either good

or bad of mine own mind but what the LORD saith that will I

speak .

2414 And now behold I go unto my people come therefore and I

will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in

the latter days .

2415 And he took up his parable and said Balaam the son of

Beor hath said and the man whose eyes are open hath said .

2416 He hath said which heard the words of God and knew the

knowledge of the most High which saw the vision of the Almighty

falling into a trance but having his eyes open .

2417 I shall see him but not now I shall behold him but not

nigh there shall come a Star out of Jacob and a Sceptre shall

rise out of Israel and shall smite the corners of Moab and

destroy all the children of Sheth .

2418 And Edom shall be a possession Seir also shall be a

possession for his enemies and Israel shall do valiantly .

2419 Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion and

shall destroy him that remaineth of the city .

2420 And when he looked on Amalek he took up his parable and

said Amalek was the first of the nations but his latter end

shall be that he perish for ever .

2421 And he looked on the Kenites and took up his parable and

said Strong is thy dwellingplace and thou puttest thy nest in a

rock .

2422 Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted until Asshur

shall carry thee away captive .

2423 And he took up his parable and said Alas who shall live

when God doeth this .

2424 And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim and shall

afflict Asshur and shall afflict Eber and he also shall perish

for ever .

2425 And Balaam rose up and went and returned to his place and

Balak also went his way .

* 251 And Israel abode in Shittim and the people began to

commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab .

252 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their

gods and the people did eat and bowed down to their gods .

253 And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor and the anger of

the LORD was kindled against Israel .

254 And the LORD said unto Moses Take all the heads of the

people and hang them up before the LORD against the sun that the

fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel .

255 And Moses said unto the judges of Israel Slay ye every one

his men that were joined unto Baalpeor .

256 And behold one of the children of Israel came and brought

unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses and

in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel

who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the

congregation .

257 And when Phinehas the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the

priest saw it he rose up from among the congregation and took a

javelin in his hand .

258 And he went after the man of Israel into the tent and

thrust both of them through the man of Israel and the woman

through her belly So the plague was stayed from the children of

Israel .

259 And those that died in the plague were twenty and four

thousand .

2510 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

2511 Phinehas the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest

hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel while he

was zealous for my sake among them that I consumed not the

children of Israel in my jealousy .

2512 Wherefore say Behold I give unto him my covenant of peace

2513 And he shall have it and his seed after him even the

covenant of an everlasting priesthood because he was zealous for

his God and made an atonement for the children of Israel .

2514 Now the name of the Israelite that was slain even that

was slain with the Midianitish woman was Zimri the son of Salu a

prince of a chief house among the Simeonites .

2515 And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was

Cozbi the daughter of Zur he was head over a people and of a

chief house in Midian .

2516 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

2517 Vex the Midianites and smite them .

2518 For they vex you with their wiles wherewith they have

beguiled you in the matter of Peor and in the matter of Cozbi

the daughter of a prince of Midian their sister which was slain

in the day of the plague for Peor's sake .

* 261 And it came to pass after the plague that the LORD spake

unto Moses and unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest saying .

262 Take the sum of all the congregation of the children of

Israel from twenty years old and upward throughout their

fathers' house all that are able to go to war in Israel .

263 And Moses and Eleazar the priest spake with them in the

plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho saying .

273 Our father died in the wilderness and he was not in the

company of them that gathered themselves together against the

LORD in the company of Korah but died in his own sin and had no

sons .

274 Why should the name of our father be done away from among

his family because he hath no son Give unto us therefore a

possession among the brethren of our father .

275 And Moses brought their cause before the LORD .

276 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

277 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right thou shalt surely

give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's

brethren and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to

pass unto them .

278 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel saying If

a man die and have no son then ye shall cause his inheritance to

pass unto his daughter .

279 And if he have no daughter then ye shall give his

inheritance unto his brethren .

2710 And if he have no brethren then ye shall give his

inheritance unto his father's brethren .

2711 And if his father have no brethren then ye shall give his

inheritance unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family

and he shall possess it and it shall be unto the children of

Abarim and see the land which I have given unto the children of

Israel .

2713 And when thou hast seen it thou also shalt be gathered

unto thy people as Aaron thy brother was gathered .

2714 For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of

Zin in the strife of the congregation to sanctify me at the

water before their eyes that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh

in the wilderness of Zin .

2715 And Moses spake unto the LORD saying .

2716 Let the LORD the God of the spirits of all flesh set a

man over the congregation .

2717 Which may go out before them and which may go in before

them and which may lead them out and which may bring them in

that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no

shepherd .

2718 And the LORD said unto Moses Take thee Joshua the son of

Nun a man in whom is the spirit and lay thine hand upon him .

2719 And set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the

congregation and give him a charge in their sight .

2720 And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him that all

the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient .

2721 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest who shall

ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD

at his word shall they go out and at his word they shall come in

both he and all the children of Israel with him even all the

congregation .

2722 And Moses did as the LORD commanded him and he took

Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the

congregation .

2723 And he laid his hands upon him and gave him a charge as

the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses .

* 281 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

282 Command the children of Israel and say unto them My

offering and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire for a sweet

savour unto me shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due

season .

disallowed her not then all her vows shall stand and every bond

wherewith she bound her soul shall stand .

3012 But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day

he heard them then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips

concerning her vows or concerning the bond of her soul shall not

stand her husband hath made them void and the LORD shall forgive

her .

3013 Every vow and every binding oath to afflict the soul her

husband may establish it or her husband may make it void .

3014 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from

day to day then he establisheth all her vows or all her bonds

which are upon her he confirmeth them because he held his peace

at her in the day that he heard them .

3015 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he

hath heard them then he shall bear her iniquity .

3016 These are the statutes which the LORD commanded Moses

between a man and his wife between the father and his daughter

being yet in her youth in her father's house .

* 311 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

312 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites afterward

shalt thou be gathered unto thy people .

313 And Moses spake unto the people saying Arm some of

yourselves unto the war and let them go against the Midianites

and avenge the LORD of Midian .

314 Of every tribe a thousand throughout all the tribes of

Israel shall ye send to the war .

315 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel a

thousand of every tribe twelve thousand armed for war .

316 And Moses sent them to the war a thousand of every tribe

them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest to the war with

the holy instruments and the trumpets to blow in his hand .

317 And they warred against the Midianites as the LORD

commanded Moses and they slew all the males .

318 And they slew the kings of Midian beside the rest of them

that were slain namely Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba

five kings of Midian Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with

the sword .

319 And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian

captives and their little ones and took the spoil of all their

cattle and all their flocks and all their goods .

3110 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt and all

their goodly castles with fire .

3111 And they took all the spoil and all the prey both of men

and of beasts .

3112 And they brought the captives and the prey and the spoil

unto Moses and Eleazar the priest and unto the congregation of

the children of Israel unto the camp at the plains of Moab which

are by Jordan near Jericho .

3113 And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the princes of

the congregation went forth to meet them without the camp .

3114 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host with

the captains over thousands and captains over hundreds which

came from the battle .

3115 And Moses said unto them Have ye saved all the women

alive .

3116 Behold these caused the children of Israel through the

counsel of Balaam to commit trespass against the LORD in the

matter of Peor and there was a plague among the congregation of

the LORD .

3117 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones and

kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him .

3118 But all the women children that have not known a man by

lying with him keep alive for yourselves .

3119 And do ye abide without the camp seven days whosoever

hath killed any person and whosoever hath touched any slain

purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day and on

the seventh day .

3120 And purify all your raiment and all that is made of skins

and all work of goats' hair and all things made of wood .

3121 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which

went to the battle This is the ordinance of the law which the

LORD commanded Moses .

3122 Only the gold and the silver the brass the iron the tin

and the lead .

3123 Every thing that may abide the fire ye shall make it go

through the fire and it shall be clean nevertheless it shall be

purified with the water of separation and all that abideth not

the fire ye shall make go through the water .

3124 And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day and ye

shall be clean and afterward ye shall come into the camp .

3125 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

3126 Take the sum of the prey that was taken both of man and

of beast thou and Eleazar the priest and the chief fathers of

the congregation .

3127 And divide the prey into two parts between them that took

the war upon them who went out to battle and between all the

congregation .

3128 And levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which

went out to battle one soul of five hundred both of the persons

and of the beeves and of the asses and of the sheep .

3129 Take it of their half and give it unto Eleazar the priest

for an heave offering of the LORD .

3130 And of the children of Israel's half thou shalt take one

portion of fifty of the persons of the beeves of the asses and

of the flocks of all manner of beasts and give them unto the

Levites which keep the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD .

3131 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD

commanded Moses .

3132 And the booty being the rest of the prey which the men of

war had caught was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and

five thousand sheep .

3133 And threescore and twelve thousand beeves .

3134 And threescore and one thousand asses .

3135 And thirty and two thousand persons in all of women that

had not known man by lying with him .

3136 And the half which was the portion of them that went out

to war was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty

thousand and five hundred sheep .

3137 And the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and

threescore and fifteen .

3138 And the beeves were thirty and six thousand of which the

LORD'S tribute was threescore and twelve .

3139 And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred of

which the LORD'S tribute was threescore and one .

3140 And the persons were sixteen thousand of which the LORD'S

tribute was thirty and two persons .

3141 And Moses gave the tribute which was the LORD'S heave

offering unto Eleazar the priest as the LORD commanded Moses .

3142 And of the children of Israel's half which Moses divided

from the men that warred .

3143 (Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was

three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand

and five hundred sheep .

3144 And thirty and six thousand beeves .

3145 And thirty thousand asses and five hundred .

3146 And sixteen thousand persons .

3147 Even of the children of Israel's half Moses took one

portion of fifty both of man and of beast and gave them unto the

Levites which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD as

the LORD commanded Moses .

3148 And the officers which were over thousands of the host

the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds came near

unto Moses .

3149 And they said unto Moses Thy servants have taken the sum

of the men of war which are under our charge and there lacketh

not one man of us .

3150 We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD what

every man hath gotten of jewels of gold chains and bracelets

rings earrings and tablets to make an atonement for our souls

before the LORD .

3151 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them

even all wrought jewels .

3152 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to

the LORD of the captains of thousands and of the captains of

hundreds was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels .

3153 (For the men of war had taken spoil every man for himself

3154 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the

captains of thousands and of hundreds and brought it into the

tabernacle of the congregation for a memorial for the children

of Israel before the LORD .

* 321 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a

very great multitude of cattle and when they saw the land of

Jazer and the land of Gilead that behold the place was a place

for cattle .

322 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and

spake unto Moses and to Eleazar the priest and unto the princes

of the congregation saying .

323 Ataroth and Dibon and Jazer and Nimrah and Heshbon and

Elealeh and Shebam and Nebo and Beon .

324 Even the country which the LORD smote before the

congregation of Israel is a land for cattle and thy servants

have cattle .

325 Wherefore said they if we have found grace in thy sight

let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession and

bring us not over Jordan .

326 And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the

children of Reuben Shall your brethren go to war and shall ye

sit here .

327 And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of

Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given

them .

328 Thus did your fathers when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea

to see the land .

329 For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol and saw

the land they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel

that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given

them .

3210 And the LORD'S anger was kindled the same time and he

sware saying .

3211 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt from

twenty years old and upward shall see the land which I sware

unto Abraham unto Isaac and unto Jacob because they have not

wholly followed me .

3212 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite and Joshua

the son of Nun for they have wholly followed the LORD .

3213 And the LORD'S anger was kindled against Israel and he

made them wander in the wilderness forty years until all the

generation that had done evil in the sight of the LORD was

consumed .

3214 And behold ye are risen up in your fathers' stead an

increase of sinful men to augment yet the fierce anger of the

LORD toward Israel .

3215 For if ye turn away from after him he will yet again

leave them in the wilderness and ye shall destroy all this

people .

3216 And they came near unto him and said We will build

sheepfolds here for our cattle and cities for our little ones .

3217 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children

of Israel until we have brought them unto their place and our

little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the

inhabitants of the land .

3218 We will not return unto our houses until the children of

Israel have inherited every man his inheritance .

3219 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan

or forward because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side

Jordan eastward .

3220 And Moses said unto them If ye will do this thing if ye

will go armed before the LORD to war .

3221 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD

until he hath driven out his enemies from before him .

3222 And the land be subdued before the LORD then afterward ye

shall return and be guiltless before the LORD and before Israel

and this land shall be your possession before the LORD .

3223 But if ye will not do so behold ye have sinned against

the LORD and be sure your sin will find you out .

3224 Build you cities for your little ones and folds for your

sheep and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth .

3225 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake

unto Moses saying Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth .

3226 Our little ones our wives our flocks and all our cattle

shall be there in the cities of Gilead .

3227 But thy servants will pass over every man armed for war

before the LORD to battle as my lord saith .

3228 So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest and

Joshua the son of Nun and the chief fathers of the tribes of the

children of Israel .

3229 And Moses said unto them If the children of Gad and the

children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan every man

armed to battle before the LORD and the land shall be subdued

before you then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a

possession .

3230 But if they will not pass over with you armed they shall

have possessions among you in the land of Canaan .

3231 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben

answered saying As the LORD hath said unto thy servants so will

we do .

3232 We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of

Canaan that the possession of our inheritance on this side

Jordan may be ours .

3233 And Moses gave unto them even to the children of Gad and

to the children of Reuben and unto half the tribe of Manasseh

the son of Joseph the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and

the kingdom of Og king of Bashan the land with the cities

thereof in the coasts even the cities of the country round about

3234 And the children of Gad built Dibon and Ataroth and Aroer

3235 And Atroth Shophan and Jaazer and Jogbehah .

3236 And Bethnimrah and Bethharan fenced cities and folds for

sheep .

3237 And the children of Reuben built Heshbon and Elealeh and

Kirjathaim .

3238 And Nebo and Baalmeon their names being changed and

Shibmah and gave other names unto the cities which they builded .

3239 And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to

Gilead and took it and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it .

3240 And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh and

he dwelt therein .

3241 And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small

towns thereof and called them Havothjair .

3242 And Nobah went and took Kenath and the villages thereof

and called it Nobah after his own name .

* 331 These are the journeys of the children of Israel which

went forth out of the land of Egypt with their armies under the

hand of Moses and Aaron .

332 And Moses wrote their goings out according to their

journeys by the commandment of the LORD and these are their

journeys according to their goings out .

333 And they departed from Rameses in the first month on the

fifteenth day of the first month on the morrow after the

passover the children of Israel went out with an high hand in

the sight of all the Egyptians .

334 For the Egyptians buried all their firstborn which the

LORD had smitten among them upon their gods also the LORD

executed judgments .

335 And the children of Israel removed from Rameses and

pitched in Succoth .

336 And they departed from Succoth and pitched in Etham which

is in the edge of the wilderness .

337 And they removed from Etham and turned again unto

Pihahiroth which is before Baalzephon and they pitched before

Migdol .

338 And they departed from before Pihahiroth and passed

through the midst of the sea into the wilderness and went three

days' journey in the wilderness of Etham and pitched in Marah .

339 And they removed from Marah and came unto Elim and in Elim

were twelve fountains of water and threescore and ten palm trees

and they pitched there .

3310 And they removed from Elim and encamped by the Red sea .

3311 And they removed from the Red sea and encamped in the

wilderness of Sin .

3312 And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin

and encamped in Dophkah .

3313 And they departed from Dophkah and encamped in Alush .

3314 And they removed from Alush and encamped at Rephidim

where was no water for the people to drink .

3315 And they departed from Rephidim and pitched in the

wilderness of Sinai .

3316 And they removed from the desert of Sinai and pitched at

Kibrothhattaavah .

3317 And they departed from Kibrothhattaavah and encamped at

Hazeroth .

3318 And they departed from Hazeroth and pitched in Rithmah .

3319 And they departed from Rithmah and pitched at Rimmonparez

3320 And they departed from Rimmonparez and pitched in Libnah .

3321 And they removed from Libnah and pitched at Rissah .

3322 And they journeyed from Rissah and pitched in Kehelathah .

3323 And they went from Kehelathah and pitched in mount

Shapher .

3324 And they removed from mount Shapher and encamped in

Haradah .

3325 And they removed from Haradah and pitched in Makheloth .

3326 And they removed from Makheloth and encamped at Tahath .

3327 And they departed from Tahath and pitched at Tarah .

3328 And they removed from Tarah and pitched in Mithcah .

3329 And they went from Mithcah and pitched in Hashmonah .

3330 And they departed from Hashmonah and encamped at Moseroth

3331 And they departed from Moseroth and pitched in Benejaakan

3332 And they removed from Benejaakan and encamped at

Horhagidgad .

3333 And they went from Horhagidgad and pitched in Jotbathah .

3334 And they removed from Jotbathah and encamped at Ebronah .

3335 And they departed from Ebronah and encamped at Eziongaber

3336 And they removed from Eziongaber and pitched in the

wilderness of Zin which is Kadesh .

3337 And they removed from Kadesh and pitched in mount Hor in

the edge of the land of Edom .

3338 And Aaron the priest went up into mount Hor at the

commandment of the LORD and died there in the fortieth year

after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt

in the first day of the fifth month .

3339 And Aaron was an hundred and twenty and three years old

when he died in mount Hor .

3340 And king Arad the Canaanite which dwelt in the south in

the land of Canaan heard of the coming of the children of Israel

3341 And they departed from mount Hor and pitched in Zalmonah .

3342 And they departed from Zalmonah and pitched in Punon .

3343 And they departed from Punon and pitched in Oboth .

3344 And they departed from Oboth and pitched in Ijeabarim in

the border of Moab .

3345 And they departed from Iim and pitched in Dibongad .

3346 And they removed from Dibongad and encamped in

Almondiblathaim .

3347 And they removed from Almondiblathaim and pitched in the

mountains of Abarim before Nebo .

3348 And they departed from the mountains of Abarim and

pitched in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho .

3349 And they pitched by Jordan from Bethjesimoth even unto

Abelshittim in the plains of Moab .

3350 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by

Jordan near Jericho saying .

3351 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them When

ye are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan .

3352 Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land

from before you and destroy all their pictures and destroy all

their molten images and quite pluck down all their high places .

3353 And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land and

dwell therein for I have given you the land to possess it .

3354 And ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance

among your families and to the more ye shall give the more

inheritance and to the fewer ye shall give the less inheritance

every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot

falleth according to the tribes of your fathers ye shall inherit

3355 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land

from before you then it shall come to pass that those which ye

let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes and thorns in

your sides and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell .

3356 Moreover it shall come to pass that I shall do unto you

as I thought to do unto them .

* 341 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

342 Command the children of Israel and say unto them When ye

come into the land of Canaan this is the land that shall fall

unto you for an inheritance even the land of Canaan with the

coasts thereof .

343 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of

Zin along by the coast of Edom and your south border shall be

the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward .

344 And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of

Akrabbim and pass on to Zin and the going forth thereof shall be

from the south to Kadeshbarnea and shall go on to Hazaraddar and

pass on to Azmon .

345 And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the

river of Egypt and the goings out of it shall be at the sea .

346 And as for the western border ye shall even have the great

sea for a border this shall be your west border .

347 And this shall be your north border from the great sea ye

shall point out for you mount Hor .

348 From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the

entrance of Hamath and the goings forth of the border shall be

to Zedad .

349 And the border shall go on to Ziphron and the goings out

of it shall be at Hazarenan this shall be your north border .

3410 And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to

Shepham .

3411 And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the

east side of Ain and the border shall descend and shall reach

unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward .

3412 And the border shall go down to Jordan and the goings out

of it shall be at the salt sea this shall be your land with the

coasts thereof round about .

3413 And Moses commanded the children of Israel saying This is

the land which ye shall inherit by lot which the LORD commanded

to give unto the nine tribes and to the half tribe .

3414 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the

house of their fathers and the tribe of the children of Gad

according to the house of their fathers have received their

inheritance and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their

inheritance .

3415 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their

inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward toward the

sunrising .

3416 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

3417 These are the names of the men which shall divide the

land unto you Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun .

3418 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe to divide the

land by inheritance .

3419 And the names of the men are these Of the tribe of Judah

Caleb the son of Jephunneh .

3420 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon Shemuel the

son of Ammihud .

3421 Of the tribe of Benjamin Elidad the son of Chislon .

3422 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan Bukki

the son of Jogli .

3423 The prince of the children of Joseph for the tribe of the

children of Manasseh Hanniel the son of Ephod .

3424 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim

Kemuel the son of Shiphtan .

3425 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun

Elizaphan the son of Parnach .

3426 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar

Paltiel the son of Azzan .

3427 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher

Ahihud the son of Shelomi .

3428 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali

Pedahel the son of Ammihud .

3429 These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the

inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan .

* 351 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by

Jordan near Jericho saying .

352 Command the children of Israel that they give unto the

Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell

in and ye shall give also unto the Levites suburbs for the

cities round about them .

353 And the cities shall they have to dwell in and the suburbs

of them shall be for their cattle and for their goods and for

all their beasts .

354 And the suburbs of the cities which ye shall give unto the

Levites shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a

thousand cubits round about .

355 And ye shall measure from without the city on the east

side two thousand cubits and on the south side two thousand

cubits and on the west side two thousand cubits and on the north

side two thousand cubits and the city shall be in the midst this

shall be to them the suburbs of the cities .

356 And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites

there shall be six cities for refuge which ye shall appoint for

the manslayer that he may flee thither and to them ye shall add

forty and two cities .

357 So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall

be forty and eight cities them shall ye give with their suburbs .

358 And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the

possession of the children of Israel from them that have many ye

shall give many but from them that have few ye shall give few

every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to

his inheritance which he inheriteth .

359 And the LORD spake unto Moses saying .

3510 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them When

ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan .

3511 Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge

for you that the slayer may flee thither which killeth any

person at unawares .

3512 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the

avenger that the manslayer die not until he stand before the

congregation in judgment .

3513 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall

ye have for refuge .

3514 Ye shall give three cities on this side Jordan and three

cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan which shall be cities

of refuge .

3515 These six cities shall be a refuge both for the children

of Israel and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them

that every one that killeth any person unawares may flee thither

3516 And if he smite him with an instrument of iron so that he

die he is a murderer the murderer shall surely be put to death .

3517 And if he smite him with throwing a stone wherewith he

may die and he die he is a murderer the murderer shall surely be

put to death .

3518 Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood wherewith

he may die and he die he is a murderer the murderer shall surely

be put to death .

3519 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer

when he meeteth him he shall slay him .

3520 But if he thrust him of hatred or hurl at him by laying

of wait that he die .

3521 Or in enmity smite him with his hand that he die he that

smote him shall surely be put to death for he is a murderer the

revenger of blood shall slay the murderer when he meeteth him .

3522 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity or have cast

upon him any thing without laying of wait .

3523 Or with any stone wherewith a man may die seeing him not

and cast it upon him that he die and was not his enemy neither

sought his harm .

3524 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and

the revenger of blood according to these judgments .

3525 And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the

hand of the revenger of blood and the congregation shall restore

him to the city of his refuge whither he was fled and he shall

abide in it unto the death of the high priest which was anointed

with the holy oil .

3526 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the

border of the city of his refuge whither he was fled .

3527 And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of

the city of his refuge and the revenger of blood kill the slayer

he shall not be guilty of blood .

3528 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge

until the death of the high priest but after the death of the

high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his

possession .

3529 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto

you throughout your generations in all your dwellings .

3530 Whoso killeth any person the murderer shall be put to

death by the mouth of witnesses but one witness shall not

testify against any person to cause him to die .

3531 Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a

murderer which is guilty of death but he shall be surely put to

death .

3532 And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to

the city of his refuge that he should come again to dwell in the

land until the death of the priest .

3533 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are for blood

it defileth the land and the land cannot be cleansed of the

blood that is shed therein but by the blood of him that shed it .

3534 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit

wherein I dwell for I the LORD dwell among the children of

Israel .

* 361 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of

Gilead the son of Machir the son of Manasseh of the families of

the sons of Joseph came near and spake before Moses and before

the princes the chief fathers of the children of Israel .

362 And they said The LORD commanded my lord to give the land

for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel and my lord

was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad

our brother unto his daughters .

363 And if they be married to any of the sons of the other

tribes of the children of Israel then shall their inheritance be

taken from the inheritance of our fathers and shall be put to

the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received so

shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance .

364 And when the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be

then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the

tribe whereunto they are received so shall their inheritance be

taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers .

365 And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to

the word of the LORD saying The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath

said well .

366 This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning

the daughters of Zelophehad saying Let them marry to whom they

think best only to the family of the tribe of their father shall

they marry .

367 So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel

remove from tribe to tribe for every one of the children of

Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his

fathers .

368 And every daughter that possesseth an inheritance in any

tribe of the children of Israel shall be wife unto one of the

family of the tribe of her father that the children of Israel

may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers .

369 Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to

another tribe but every one of the tribes of the children of

Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance .

3610 Even as the LORD commanded Moses so did the daughters of

Zelophehad .

3611 For Mahlah Tirzah and Hoglah and Milcah and Noah the

daughters of Zelophehad were married unto their father's

brothers' sons .

3612 And they were married into the families of the sons of

Manasseh the son of Joseph and their inheritance remained in the

tribe of the family of their father .

3613 These are the commandments and the judgments which the

LORD commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel

in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho .
