The Old Testament of the
King James Version of the Bible
10:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
10:2 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.
10:3 And when they shall blow with them, all
the assembly shall
assemble themselves to thee at the door of
the tabernacle of the
congregation.
10:4 And if they blow but with one trumpet,
then the princes, which
are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall
gather themselves unto
thee.
10:5 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps
that lie on the east parts
shall go forward.
10:6 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.
10:7 But when the congregation is to be
gathered together, ye shall
blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
10:8 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.
10:9 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.
10:10 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.
10:11 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.
10:12 And the children of Israel took their
journeys out of the
wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in
the wilderness of Paran.
10:13 And they first took their journey
according to the commandment
of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
10:14 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.
10:15 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Issachar was
Nethaneel the son of Zuar.
10:16 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Zebulun was
Eliab the son of Helon.
10:17 And the tabernacle was taken down; and
the sons of Gershon and
the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the
tabernacle.
10:18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben
set forward according to
their armies: and over his host was Elizur
the son of Shedeur.
10:19 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Simeon was
Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
10:20 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Gad was
Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
10:21 And the Kohathites set forward,
bearing the sanctuary: and the
other did set up the tabernacle against they
came.
10:22 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.
10:23 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Manasseh was
Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
10:24 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Benjamin was
Abidan the son of Gideoni.
10:25 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.
10:26 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Asher was
Pagiel the son of Ocran.
10:27 And over the host of the tribe of the
children of Naphtali was
Ahira the son of Enan.
10:28 Thus were the journeyings of the
children of Israel according to
their armies, when they set forward.
10:29 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.
10:30 And he said unto him, I will not go;
but I will depart to mine
own land, and to my kindred.
10:31 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.
10:32 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.
10:33 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.
10:34 And the cloud of the LORD was upon
them by day, when they went
out of the camp.
10:35 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.
10:36 And when it rested, he said, Return, O
LORD, unto the many
thousands of Israel.
11:1 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.
11:2 And the people cried unto Moses; and
when Moses prayed unto the
LORD, the fire was quenched.
11:3 And he called the name of the place
Taberah: because the fire of
the LORD burnt among them.
11:4 And the mixt 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? 11:5 We remember the fish,
which we did eat in Egypt
freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and
the leeks, and the onions,
and the garlick: 11:6 But now our soul is
dried away: there is nothing
at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.
11:7 And the manna was as coriander seed,
and the colour thereof as
the colour of bdellium.
11:8 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.
11:9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in
the night, the manna fell
upon it.
11:10 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.
11:11 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? 11:12 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? 11:13
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all
this people? for they weep
unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may
eat.
11:14 I am not able to bear all this people
alone, because it is too
heavy for me.
11:15 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.
11:16 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.
11:17 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.
11:18 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.
11:19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two
days, nor five days, neither
ten days, nor twenty days; 11:20 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?
11:21 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.
11:22 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? 11:23 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.
11:24 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.
11:25 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.
11:26 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.
11:27 And there ran a young man, and told
Moses, and said, Eldad and
Medad do prophesy in the camp.
11:28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant
of Moses, one of his
young men, answered and said, My lord Moses,
forbid them.
11:29 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! 11:30 And Moses gat
him into the camp, he and
the elders of Israel.
11:31 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.
11:32 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.
11:33 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.
11:34 And he called the name of that place
Kibrothhattaavah: because
there they buried the people that lusted.
11:35 And the people journeyed from
Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth;
and abode at Hazeroth.
12:1 And Miriam and Aaron spake against
Moses because of the Ethiopian
woman whom he had married: for he had
married an Ethiopian woman.
12:2 And they said, Hath the LORD indeed
spoken only by Moses? hath he
not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard
it.
12:3 (Now the man Moses was very meek, above
all the men which were
upon the face of the earth.) 12:4 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.
12:5 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.
12:6 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.
12:7 My servant Moses is not so, who is
faithful in all mine house.
12:8 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?
12:9 And the anger of the LORD was kindled
against them; and he
departed.
12:10 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.
12:11 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.
12:12 Let her not be as one dead, of whom
the flesh is half consumed
when he cometh out of his mother's womb.
12:13 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying,
Heal her now, O God, I
beseech thee.
12:14 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.
12:15 And Miriam was shut out from the camp
seven days: and the people
journeyed not till Miriam was brought in
again.
12:16 And afterward the people removed from
Hazeroth, and pitched in
the wilderness of Paran.
13:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
13:2 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.
13:3 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.
13:4 And these were their names: of the
tribe of Reuben, Shammua the
son of Zaccur.
13:5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son
of Hori.
13:6 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of
Jephunneh.
13:7 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son
of Joseph.
13:8 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son
of Nun.
13:9 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son
of Raphu.
13:10 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the
son of Sodi.
13:11 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the
tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi
the son of Susi.
13:12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of
Gemalli.
13:13 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son
of Michael.
13:14 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the
son of Vophsi.
13:15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of
Machi.
13:16 These are the names of the men which
Moses sent to spy out the
land.
And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun
Jehoshua.
13:17 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:
13:18 And see the land, what it is, and the
people that dwelleth
therein, whether they be strong or weak, few
or many; 13:19 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; 13:20 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.
13:21 So they went up, and searched the land
from the wilderness of
Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
13:22 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.)
13:23 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.
13:24 The place was called the brook Eshcol,
because of the cluster of
grapes which the children of Israel cut down
from thence.
13:25 And they returned from searching of
the land after forty days.
13:26 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 shewed them the fruit of
the land.
13:27 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.
13:28 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.
13:29 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.
13:30 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.
13:31 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.
13:32 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.
13:33 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.
14:1 And all the congregation lifted up
their voice, and cried; and
the people wept that night.
14:2 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! 14:3 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? 14:4 And they
said one to another, Let us make a captain,
and let us return into
Egypt.
14:5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their
faces before all the assembly
of the congregation of the children of
Israel.
14:6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb
the son of Jephunneh, which
were of them that searched the land, rent
their clothes: 14:7 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.
14:8 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.
14:9 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.
14:10 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.
14:11 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 shewed among them? 14:12 I will
smite them with the
pestilence, and disinherit them, and will
make of thee a greater
nation and mightier than they.
14:13 And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the
Egyptians shall hear it,
(for thou broughtest up this people in thy
might from among them;)
14:14 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.
14:15 Now if thou shalt kill all this people
as one man, then the
nations which have heard the fame of thee
will speak, saying, 14:16
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.
14:17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power
of my LORD be great,
according as thou hast spoken, saying, 14:18
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.
14:19 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.
14:20 And the LORD said, I have pardoned
according to thy word: 14:21
But as truly as I live, all the earth shall
be filled with the glory
of the LORD.
14:22 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; 14:23 Surely they
shall not see the land which I sware unto
their fathers, neither shall
any of them that provoked me see it: 14:24
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.
14:25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites
dwelt in the valley.)
Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the
wilderness by the way of the
Red sea.
14:26 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, saying, 14:27 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.
14:28 Say unto them, As truly as I live,
saith the LORD, as ye have
spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
14:29 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.
14:30 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.
14:31 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.
14:32 But as for you, your carcases, they
shall fall in this
wilderness.
14:33 And your children shall wander in the
wilderness forty years,
and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases
be wasted in the
wilderness.
14:34 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.
14:35 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.
14:36 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, 14:37 Even those men
that did bring up the evil
report upon the land, died by the plague
before the LORD.
14:38 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.
14:39 And Moses told these sayings unto all
the children of Israel:
and the people mourned greatly.
14:40 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.
14:41 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye
transgress the commandment
of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.
14:42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among
you; that ye be not smitten
before your enemies.
14:43 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.
14:44 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.
14:45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the
Canaanites which dwelt in
that hill, and smote them, and discomfited
them, even unto Hormah.
15:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
15:2 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,
15:3 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:
15:4 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.
15:5 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.
15:6 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.
15:7 And for a drink offering thou shalt
offer the third part of an
hin of wine, for a sweet savour unto the
LORD.
15:8 And when thou preparest a bullock for a
burnt offering, or for a
sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace
offerings unto the LORD: 15:9
Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat
offering of three tenth
deals of flour mingled with half an hin of
oil.
15:10 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.
15:11 Thus shall it be done for one bullock,
or for one ram, or for a
lamb, or a kid.
15:12 According to the number that ye shall
prepare, so shall ye do to
every one according to their number.
15:13 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.
15:14 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.
15:15 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.
15:16 One law and one manner shall be for
you, and for the stranger
that sojourneth with you.
15:17 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
15:18 Speak unto the
children of Israel, and say unto them, When
ye come into the land
whither I bring you, 15:19 Then it shall be,
that, when ye eat of the
bread of the land, ye shall offer up an
heave offering unto the LORD.
15:20 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.
15:21 Of the first of your dough ye shall
give unto the LORD an heave
offering in your generations.
15:22 And if ye have erred, and not observed
all these commandments,
which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses, 15:23
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; 15:24 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.
15:25 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: 15:26 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.
15:27 And if any soul sin through ignorance,
then he shall bring a she
goat of the first year for a sin offering.
15:28 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.
15:29 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.
15:30 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.
15:31 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.
15:32 And while the children of Israel were
in the wilderness, they
found a man that gathered sticks upon the
sabbath day.
15:33 And they that found him gathering
sticks brought him unto Moses
and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
15:34 And they put him in ward, because it
was not declared what
should be done to him.
15:35 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.
15:36 And all the congregation brought him
without the camp, and
stoned him with stones, and he died; as the
LORD commanded Moses.
15:37 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
15:38 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: 15:39 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: 15:40 That ye may remember, and do
all my commandments, and
be holy unto your God.
15:41 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.
16:1 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: 16:2 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: 16:3 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? 16:4 And
when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
16:5 And he spake unto
Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even
to morrow the LORD will
shew 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.
16:6 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and
all his company; 16:7 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.
16:8 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray
you, ye sons of Levi:
16:9 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? 16:10 And he
hath brought thee near to him, and all thy
brethren the sons of Levi
with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
16:11 For which cause
both thou and all thy company are gathered
together against the LORD:
and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against
him? 16:12 And Moses sent
to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of
Eliab: which said, We will not
come up: 16:13 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? 16:14 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.
16:15 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.
16:16 And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and
all thy company before
the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to
morrow: 16:17 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.
16:18 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.
16:19 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.
16:20 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, saying, 16:21
Separate yourselves from among this
congregation, that I may consume
them in a moment.
16:22 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? 16:23 And the LORD
spake unto Moses, saying,
16:24 Speak unto the congregation, saying,
Get you up from about the
tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
16:25 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan
and Abiram; and the
elders of Israel followed him.
16:26 And he spake unto the congregation,
saying, Depart, I pray you,
from the tents of these wicked men, and
touch nothing of their's, lest
ye be consumed in all their sins.
16:27 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.
16:28 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.
16:29 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.
16:30 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.
16:31 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: 16:32 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.
16:33 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.
16:34 And all Israel that were round about
them fled at the cry of
them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow
us up also.
16:35 And there came out a fire from the
LORD, and consumed the two
hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
16:36 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
16:37 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.
16:38 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.
16:39 And Eleazar the priest took the brasen
censers, wherewith they
that were burnt had offered; and they were
made broad plates for a
covering of the altar: 16:40 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.
16:41 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.
16:42 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.
16:43 And Moses and Aaron came before the
tabernacle of the
congregation.
16:44 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
16:45 Get you up from
among this congregation, that I may consume
them as in a moment. And
they fell upon their faces.
16:46 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.
16:47 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.
16:48 And he stood between the dead and the
living; and the plague was
stayed.
16:49 Now they that died in the plague were
fourteen thousand and
seven hundred, beside them that died about
the matter of Korah.
16:50 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the
door of the tabernacle of
the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
17:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
17:2 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.
17:3 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.
17:4 And thou shalt lay them up in the
tabernacle of the congregation
before the testimony, where I will meet with
you.
17:5 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.
17:6 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.
17:7 And Moses laid up the rods before the
LORD in the tabernacle of
witness.
17:8 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.
17:9 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.
17:10 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.
17:11 And Moses did so: as the LORD
commanded him, so did he.
17:12 And the children of Israel spake unto
Moses, saying, Behold, we
die, we perish, we all perish.
17:13 Whosoever cometh any thing near unto
the tabernacle of the LORD
shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?
18:1 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.
18:2 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.
18:3 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.
18:4 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.
18:5 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.
18:6 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.
18:7 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee
shall keep your priest's
office for everything of the altar, and
within the vail; 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.
18:8 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.
18:9 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.
18:10 In the most holy place shalt thou eat
it; every male shall eat
it: it shall be holy unto thee.
18:11 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.
18:12 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.
18:13 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.
18:14 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be
thine.
18:15 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.
18:16 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.
18:17 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.
18:18 And the flesh of them shall be thine,
as the wave breast and as
the right shoulder are thine.
18:19 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.
18:20 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.
18:21 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.
18:22 Neither must the children of Israel
henceforth come nigh the
tabernacle of the congregation, lest they
bear sin, and die.
18:23 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.
18:24 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.
18:25 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
18:26 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.
18:27 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.
18:28 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.
18:29 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.
18:30 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.
18:31 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.
18:32 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.
19:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, saying, 19:2 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:
19:3 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:
19:4 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: 19:5 And one shall
burn the heifer in his
sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her
blood, with her dung, shall he
burn: 19:6 And the priest shall take cedar
wood, and hyssop, and
scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the
burning of the heifer.
19:7 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.
19:8 And he that burneth her shall wash his
clothes in water, and
bathe his flesh in water, and shall be
unclean until the even.
19:9 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.
19:10 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.
19:11 He that toucheth the dead body of any
man shall be unclean seven
days.
19:12 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.
19:13 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.
19:14 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.
19:15 And every open vessel, which hath no
covering bound upon it, is
unclean.
19:16 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.
19:17 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: 19:18 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: 19:19 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.
19:20 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.
19:21 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.
19:22 And whatsoever the unclean person
toucheth shall be unclean; and
the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean
until even. |
