11And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
12Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by their polls;
13From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies.
14And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one head of the house of his fathers.
15And these are the names of the men that shall stand with you: of the tribe of Reuben; Elizur the son of Shedeur.
16Of Simeon; Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
17Of Judah; Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
18Of Issachar; Nethaneel the son of Zuar.

117And Moses and Aaron took these men which are expressed by their names:
118And they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month, and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.
119As the LORD commanded Moses, so he numbered them in the wilderness of Sinai.
120And the children of Reuben, Israel's eldest son, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, by their polls, every male from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;

144These are those that were numbered, which Moses and Aaron numbered, and the princes of Israel, being twelve men: each one was for the house of his fathers.
145So were all those that were numbered of the children of Israel, by the house of their fathers, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war in Israel;
146Even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.
147But the Levites after the tribe of their fathers were not numbered among them.
148For the LORD had spoken unto Moses, saying,
149Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the children of Israel:
150But thou shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.
151And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
152And the children of Israel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own camp, and every man by his own standard, throughout their hosts.
153But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.
154And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.
21And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
22Every man of the children of Israel shall pitch by his own standard, with the ensign of their father's house: far off about the tabernacle of the congregation shall they pitch.
23And on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies: and Nahshon the son of Amminadab shall be captain of the children of Judah.
24And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and fourteen thousand and six hundred.
25And those that do pitch next unto him shall be the tribe of Issachar: and Nethaneel the son of Zuar shall be captain of the children of Issachar.
26And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.
27Then the tribe of Zebulun: and Eliab the son of Helon shall be captain of the children of Zebulun.
28And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.
29All that were numbered in the camp of Judah were an hundred thousand and fourscore thousand and six thousand and four hundred, throughout their armies. These shall first set forth.
210On the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their armies: and the captain of the children of Reuben shall be Elizur the son of Shedeur.
211And his host, and those that were numbered thereof, were forty and six thousand and five hundred.
212And those which pitch by him shall be the tribe of Simeon: and the captain of the children of Simeon shall be Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
213And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and nine thousand and three hundred.
214Then the tribe of Gad: and the captain of the sons of Gad shall be Eliasaph the son of Reuel.
215And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and five thousand and six hundred and fifty.
216All that were numbered in the camp of Reuben were an hundred thousand and fifty and one thousand and four hundred and fifty, throughout their armies. And they shall set forth in the second rank.
217Then the tabernacle of the congregation shall set forward with the camp of the Levites in the midst of the camp: as they encamp, so shall they set forward, every man in his place by their standards.
218On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their armies: and the captain of the sons of Ephraim shall be Elishama the son of Ammihud.
219And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty thousand and five hundred.
220And by him shall be the tribe of Manasseh: and the captain of the children of Manasseh shall be Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
221And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred.
222Then the tribe of Benjamin: and the captain of the sons of Benjamin shall be Abidan the son of Gideoni.
223And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred.
224All that were numbered of the camp of Ephraim were an hundred thousand and eight thousand and an hundred, throughout their armies. And they shall go forward in the third rank.
225The standard of the camp of Dan shall be on the north side by their armies: and the captain of the children of Dan shall be Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
226And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were threescore and two thousand and seven hundred.
227And those that encamp by him shall be the tribe of Asher: and the captain of the children of Asher shall be Pagiel the son of Ocran.
228And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were forty and one thousand and five hundred.
229Then the tribe of Naphtali: and the captain of the children of Naphtali shall be Ahira the son of Enan.
230And his host, and those that were numbered of them, were fifty and three thousand and four hundred.
231All they that were numbered in the camp of Dan were an hundred thousand and fifty and seven thousand and six hundred. They shall go hindmost with their standards.
232These are those which were numbered of the children of Israel by the house of their fathers: all those that were numbered of the camps throughout their hosts were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.
233But the Levites were not numbered among the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses.
234And the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses: so they pitched by their standards, and so they set forward, every one after their families, according to the house of their fathers.
31These also are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spake with Moses in mount Sinai.
32And these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
33These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest's office.
34And Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange fire before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the sight of Aaron their father.
35And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
36Bring the tribe of Levi near, and present them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister unto him.
37And they shall keep his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tabernacle of the congregation, to do the service of the tabernacle.
38And they shall keep all the instruments of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the children of Israel, to do the service of the tabernacle.
39And thou shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given unto him out of the children of Israel.
310And thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall wait on their priest's office: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
311And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
312And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel: therefore the Levites shall be mine;
313Because all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast: mine shall they be: I am the LORD.
314And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
315Number the children of Levi after the house of their fathers, by their families: every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them.
316And Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD, as he was commanded.
317And these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari.
318And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families; Libni, and Shimei.
319And the sons of Kohath by their families; Amram, and Izehar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
320And the sons of Merari by their families; Mahli, and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to the house of their fathers.
321Of Gershon was the family of the Libnites, and the family of the Shimites: these are the families of the Gershonites.
322Those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, even those that were numbered of them were seven thousand and five hundred.
323The families of the Gershonites shall pitch behind the tabernacle westward.
324And the chief of the house of the father of the Gershonites shall be Eliasaph the son of Lael.
325And the charge of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation shall be the tabernacle, and the tent, the covering thereof, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
326And the hangings of the court, and the curtain for the door of the court, which is by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about, and the cords of it for all the service thereof.
327And of Kohath was the family of the Amramites, and the family of the Izeharites, and the family of the Hebronites, and the family of the Uzzielites: these are the families of the Kohathites.
328In the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were eight thousand and six hundred, keeping the charge of the sanctuary.
329The families of the sons of Kohath shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle southward.
330And the chief of the house of the father of the families of the Kohathites shall be Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
331And their charge shall be the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary wherewith they minister, and the hanging, and all the service thereof.
332And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be chief over the chief of the Levites, and have the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary.
333Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites, and the family of the Mushites: these are the families of Merari.
334And those that were numbered of them, according to the number of all the males, from a month old and upward, were six thousand and two hundred.
335And the chief of the house of the father of the families of Merari was Zuriel the son of Abihail: these shall pitch on the side of the tabernacle northward.
336And under the custody and charge of the sons of Merari shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the sockets thereof, and all the vessels thereof, and all that serveth thereto,
337And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords.
338But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
339All that were numbered of the Levites, which Moses and Aaron numbered at the commandment of the LORD, throughout their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were twenty and two thousand.
340And the LORD said unto Moses, Number all the firstborn of the males of the children of Israel from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
341And thou shalt take the Levites for me (I am the LORD) instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel; and the cattle of the Levites instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the children of Israel.
342And Moses numbered, as the LORD commanded him, all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
343And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.
344And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
345Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD.
346And for those that are to be redeemed of the two hundred and threescore and thirteen of the firstborn of the children of Israel, which are more than the Levites;
347Thou shalt even take five shekels apiece by the poll, after the shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them: (the shekel is twenty gerahs:)
348And thou shalt give the money, wherewith the odd number of them is to be redeemed, unto Aaron and to his sons.
349And Moses took the redemption money of them that were over and above them that were redeemed by the Levites:
350Of the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the money; a thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:
351And Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.
41And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
42Take the sum of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, after their families, by the house of their fathers,
43From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
44This shall be the service of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, about the most holy things:
45And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of testimony with it:
46And shall put thereon the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread over it a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves thereof.
47And upon the table of showbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover withal: and the continual bread shall be thereon:
48And they shall spread upon them a cloth of scarlet, and cover the same with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put in the staves thereof.
49And they shall take a cloth of blue, and cover the candlestick of the light, and his lamps, and his tongs, and his snuffdishes, and all the oil vessels thereof, wherewith they minister unto it:
410And they shall put it and all the vessels thereof within a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put it upon a bar.
411And upon the golden altar they shall spread a cloth of blue, and cover it with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put to the staves thereof:
412And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, and put them in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers' skins, and shall put them on a bar:
413And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth thereon:
414And they shall put upon it all the vessels thereof, wherewith they minister about it, even the censers, the fleshhooks, and the shovels, and the basins, all the vessels of the altar; and they shall spread upon it a covering of badgers' skins, and put to the staves of it.
415And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die. These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
416And to the office of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest pertaineth the oil for the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily meat offering, and the anointing oil, and the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that therein is, in the sanctuary, and in the vessels thereof.
417And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying,
418Cut ye not off the tribe of the families of the Kohathites from among the Levites:
419But thus do unto them, that they may live, and not die, when they approach unto the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in, and appoint them every one to his service and to his burden:
420But they shall not go in to see when the holy things are covered, lest they die.
421And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
422Take also the sum of the sons of Gershon, throughout the houses of their fathers, by their families;
423From thirty years old and upward until fifty years old shalt thou number them; all that enter in to perform the service, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation.
424This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, to serve, and for burdens:
425And they shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tabernacle of the congregation, his covering, and the covering of the badgers' skins that is above upon it, and the hanging for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
426And the hangings of the court, and the hanging for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar round about, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and all that is made for them: so shall they serve.
427At the appointment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burdens, and in all their service: and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all their burdens.
428This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershon in the tabernacle of the congregation: and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
429As for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them after their families, by the house of their fathers;
430From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old shalt thou number them, every one that entereth into the service, to do the work of the tabernacle of the congregation.
431And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tabernacle of the congregation; the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and sockets thereof,
432And the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, with all their instruments, and with all their service: and by name ye shall reckon the instruments of the charge of their burden.
433This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
434And Moses and Aaron and the chief of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites after their families, and after the house of their fathers,
435From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation:
436And those that were numbered of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty.
437These were they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, which Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
438And those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, throughout their families, and by the house of their fathers,
439From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation,
440Even those that were numbered of them, throughout their families, by the house of their fathers, were two thousand and six hundred and thirty.
441These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, of all that might do service in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron did number according to the commandment of the LORD.
442And those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, throughout their families, by the house of their fathers,
443From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entereth into the service, for the work in the tabernacle of the congregation,
444Even those that were numbered of them after their families, were three thousand and two hundred.
445These be those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
446All those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the chief of Israel numbered, after their families, and after the house of their fathers,
447From thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that came to do the service of the ministry, and the service of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation.
448Even those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred and fourscore,
449According to the commandment of the LORD they were numbered by the hand of Moses, every one according to his service, and according to his burden: thus were they numbered of him, as the LORD commanded Moses.
51And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
52Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead:
53Both 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.
54And 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.
55And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
56Speak 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;
57Then 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.
58But 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.
59And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.
510And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
511And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
512Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
513And 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;
514And 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:
515Then 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.
516And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD:
517And 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:
518And 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:
519And 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:
520But 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:
521Then 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;
522And 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.
523And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water:
524And 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.
525Then 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:
526And 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.
527And 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.
528And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.
529This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth aside to another instead of her husband, and is defiled;
530Or 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.
531Then shall the man be guiltless from iniquity, and this woman shall bear her iniquity.
61And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
62Speak 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:
63He 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.
64All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk.
65All 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.
66All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead body.
67He 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.
68All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD.
69And 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.
610And 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:
611And 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.
612And 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.
613And 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:
614And 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,
615And 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.
616And the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering:
617And 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.
618And 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.
619And 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:
620And 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.
621This 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.
622And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
623Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,
624The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:
625The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
626The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
627And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
71And 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;
72That 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:
73And 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.
74And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
75Take 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.
76And Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites.
77Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon, according to their service:
78And 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.
79But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none: because the service of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders.
710And the princes offered for dedicating of the altar in the day that it was anointed, even the princes offered their offering before the altar.
711And the LORD said unto Moses, They shall offer their offering, each prince on his day, for the dedicating of the altar.

789And 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 cherubim: and he spake unto him.
81And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
82Speak unto Aaron and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.
83And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses.
84And 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.
85And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
86Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
87And 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.
88Then 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.
89And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou shalt gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel together:
810And thou shalt bring the Levites before the LORD: and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon the Levites:
811And 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.
812And 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.
813And thou shalt set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD.
814Thus shalt thou separate the Levites from among the children of Israel: and the Levites shall be mine.
815And 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.
816For 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.
817For 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.
818And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel.
819And 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.
820And 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.
821And 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.
822And 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.
823And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
824This 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:
825And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting upon the service thereof, and shall serve no more:
826But 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.
91And 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,
92Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.
93In 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.
94And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
95And 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.
96And 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:
97And 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?
98And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
99And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
910Speak 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.
911The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
912They 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.
913But 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.
914And 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.
915And 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.
916So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
917And 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.
918At 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.
919And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
920And 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.
921And 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.
922Or 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.
923At 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.
101And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
102Make 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.
103And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
104And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
105When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
106When 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.
107But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
108And 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.
109And 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.
1010Also 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.
1011And 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.
1012And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.
1013And they first took their journey according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
1014In 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.
1015And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar.
1016And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
1017And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle.
1018And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
1019And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
1020And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
1021And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other did set up the tabernacle against they came.
1022And 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.
1023And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
1024And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
1025And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which was the rearward of all the camps throughout their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
1026And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.
1027And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
1028Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they set forward.
1029And 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.
1030And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.
1031And 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.
1032And 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.
1033And 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.
1034And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when they went out of the camp.
1035And 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.
1036And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the many thousands of Israel.
111And 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.
112And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched.
113And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
114And 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?
115We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic:
116But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.
117And the manna was as coriander seed, and the color thereof as the color of bdellium.
118And 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.
119And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
1110Then 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.
1111And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favor in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
1112Have 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?
1113Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
1114I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
1115And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favor in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
1116And 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.
1117And 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.
1118And 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.
1119Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
1120But 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?
1121And 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.
1122Shall 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?
1123And 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.
1124And 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.
1125And 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.
1126But 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.
1127And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp.
1128And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.
1129And 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!
1130And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
1131And 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.
1132And 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.
1133And 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.
1134And he called the name of that place Kibrothhattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.
1135And the people journeyed from Kibrothhattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
121And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.
122And 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.)
124And 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.
125And 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.
126And 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.
127My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.
128With 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?
129And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.
1210And 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.
1211And 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.
1212Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.
1213And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee.
1214And 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.
1215And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.
1216And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.
131And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
132Send 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.
133And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
134And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
135Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
136Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
137Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
138Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun.
139Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.
1310Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.
1311Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
1312Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
1313Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.
1314Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.
1315Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
1316These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua.
1317And 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:
1318And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
1319And 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;
1320And 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 first ripe grapes.
1321So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
1322And 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.)
1323And 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.
1324The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
1325And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
1326And 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.
1327And 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.
1328Nevertheless 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.
1329The 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.
1330And 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.
1331But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
1332And 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.
1333And 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.
141And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
142And 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!
143And 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?
144And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
145Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
146And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
147And 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.
148If 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.
149Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defense is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not.
1410But 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.
1411And 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?
1412I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.
1413And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;)
1414And 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.
1415Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
1416Because 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.
1417And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
1418The LORD is long-suffering, 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.
1419Pardon, 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.
1420And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word:
1421But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD.
1422Because 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;
1423Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
1424But 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.) Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
1426And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
1427How 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.
1428Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
1429Your carcasses 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.
1430Doubtless 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.
1431But 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.
1432But as for you, your carcasses, they shall fall in this wilderness.
1433And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcasses be wasted in the wilderness.
1434After 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.
1435I 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.
1436And 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,
1437Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
1438But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.
1439And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
1440And 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.
1441And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.
1442Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.
1443For 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.
1444But 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.
1445Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.
151And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
152Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,
153And 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 savor unto the LORD, of the herd or of the flock:
154Then 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.
155And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.
156Or 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.
157And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an hin of wine, for a sweet savor unto the LORD.
158And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings unto the LORD:
159Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil.
1510And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the LORD.
1511Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid.
1512According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do to every one according to their number.
1513All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the LORD.
1514And 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 savor unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do.
1515One 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.
1516One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
1517And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1518Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land whither I bring you,
1519Then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the LORD.
1520Ye 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.
1521Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an heave offering in your generations.
1522And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses,
1523Even 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;
1524Then 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 savor 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.
1525And 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:
1526And 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.
1527And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering.
1528And 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.
1529Ye 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.
1530But 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.
1531Because 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.
1532And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day.
1533And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
1534And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
1535And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
1536And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses.
1537And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1538Speak 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:
1539And 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:
1540That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.
1541I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God.
161Now 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:
162And 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:
163And 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?
164And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
165And 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.
166This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
167And 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.
168And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
169Seemeth 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?
1610And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
1611For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
1612And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
1613Is 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?
1614Moreover 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.
1615And 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.
1616And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
1617And 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.
1618And 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.
1619And 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.
1620And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
1621Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
1622And 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?
1623And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1624Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
1625And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
1626And 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.
1627So 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.
1628And 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.
1629If 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.
1630But 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.
1631And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
1632And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
1633They, 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.
1634And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
1635And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
1636And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1637Speak 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.
1638The 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.
1639And 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:
1640To 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.
1641But 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.
1642And 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.
1643And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
1644And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1645Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
1646And 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.
1647And 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.
1648And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
1649Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
1650And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
171And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
172Speak 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.
173And 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.
174And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.
175And 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.
176And 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.
177And Moses laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness.
178And 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.
179And 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.
1710And 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.
1711And Moses did so: as the LORD commanded him, so did he.
1712And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
1713Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the LORD shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?
181And 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.
182And 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.
183And 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.
184And 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.
185And 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.
186And 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.
187Therefore 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.
188And 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.
189This 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.
1810In the most holy place shalt thou eat it; every male shall eat it: it shall be holy unto thee.
1811And 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.
1812All 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.
1813And 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.
1814Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine.
1815Every 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.
1816And 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.
1817But 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 savor unto the LORD.
1818And the flesh of them shall be thine, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are thine.
1819All 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.
1820And 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.
1821And, 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.
1822Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die.
1823But 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.
1824But 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.
1825And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
1826Thus 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.
1827And 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.
1828Thus 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.
1829Out 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.
1830Therefore 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.
1831And 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.
1832And 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.
191And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
192This 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:
193And 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:
194And 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:
195And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
196And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
197Then 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.
198And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.
199And 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.
1910And 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.
1911He that toucheth the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
1912He 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.
1913Whosoever 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.
1914This 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.
1915And every open vessel, which hath no covering bound upon it, is unclean.
1916And 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.
1917And 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:
1918And 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:
1919And 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.
1920But 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.
1921And 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.
1922And whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean; and the soul that toucheth it shall be unclean until even.
201Then 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.
202And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
203And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD!
204And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?
205And 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.
206And 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.
207And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
208Take 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.
209And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
2010And 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?
2011And 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.
2012And 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.
2013This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
2014And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
2015How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
2016And 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:
2017Let 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.
2018And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.
2019And 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 anything else, go through on my feet.
2020And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
2021Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.
2022And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.
2023And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
2024Aaron 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.
2025Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor:
2026And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there.
2027And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
2028And 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.
2029And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
211And 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.
212And 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.
213And 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.
214And 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.
215And 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.
216And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
217Therefore 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.
218And 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.
219And 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.
2110And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth.
2111And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrising.
2112From thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared.
2113From 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.
2114Wherefore 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,
2115And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the dwelling of Ar, and lieth upon the border of Moab.
2116And 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.
2117Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it:
2118The 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:
2119And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth:
2120And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon.
2121And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
2122Let 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.
2123And 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.
2124And 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.
2125And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof.
2126For 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.
2127Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared:
2128For 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.
2129Woe 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.
2130We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
2131Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
2132And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
2133And 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.
2134And 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.
2135So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land.
221And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.
222And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
223And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
224And 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.
225He 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:
226Come 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.
227And 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.
228And 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.
229And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee?
2210And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto me, saying,
2211Behold, 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.
2212And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed.
2213And 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.
2214And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam refuseth to come with us.
2215And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honorable than they.
2216And 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:
2217For I will promote thee unto very great honor, and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me: come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.
2218And 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.
2219Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will say unto me more.
2220And 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.
2221And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
2222And 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.
2223And 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.
2224But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
2225And 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.
2226And 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.
2227And 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.
2228And 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?
2229And 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.
2230And 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.
2231Then 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.
2232And 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:
2233And 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.
2234And 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.
2235And 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.
2236And 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.
2237And 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 honor?
2238And 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.
2239And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjathhuzoth.
2240And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that were with him.
2241And 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.
231And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
232And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram.
233And 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.
234And 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.
235And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.
236And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
237And 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.
238How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD hath not defied?
239For 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.
2310Who 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!
2311And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether.
2312And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?
2313And 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.
2314And 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.
2315And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet the LORD yonder.
2316And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again unto Balak, and say thus.
2317And 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?
2318And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor:
2319God 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?
2320Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.
2321He 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.
2322God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.
2323Surely 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!
2324Behold, 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.
2325And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
2326But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying, All that the LORD speaketh, that I must do?
2327And 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.
2328And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward Jeshimon.
2329And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bullocks and seven rams.
2330And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.
241And 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.
242And 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.
243And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
244He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
245How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel!
246As 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.
247He 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.
248God 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.
249He 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.
2410And 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.
2411Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honor; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honor.
2412And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,
2413If 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?
2414And 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.
2415And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
2416He 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:
2417I 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.
2418And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly.
2419Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city.
2420And 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.
2421And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwelling place, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
2422Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.
2423And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
2424And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
2425And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
251And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
252And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
253And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.
254And 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.
255And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.
256And, 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.
257And 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;
258And 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.
259And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.
2510And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2511Phinehas, 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.
2512Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
2513And 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.
2514Now 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.
2515And 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.
2516And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2517Vex the Midianites, and smite them:
2518For 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.
261And it came to pass after the plague, that the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying,
262Take 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.
263And Moses and Eleazar the priest spake with them in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
264Take the sum of the people, from twenty years old and upward; as the LORD commanded Moses and the children of Israel, which went forth out of the land of Egypt.

2653Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according to the number of names.
2654To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance: to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that were numbered of him.
2655Notwithstanding the land shall be divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.
2656According to the lot shall the possession thereof be divided between many and few.

2660And unto Aaron was born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2661And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the LORD.
2662And those that were numbered of them were twenty and three thousand, all males from a month old and upward: for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because there was no inheritance given them among the children of Israel.
2663These are they that were numbered by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
2664But among these there was not a man of them whom Moses and Aaron the priest numbered, when they numbered the children of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai.
2665For the LORD had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

272And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
273Our 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.
274Why 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.
275And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.
276And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
277The 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.
278And 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.
279And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his brethren.
2710And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his father's brethren.
2711And 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 Israel a statute of judgment, as the LORD commanded Moses.
2712And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.
2713And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.
2714For 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.
2715And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,
2716Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
2717Which 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.
2718And 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;
2719And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
2720And thou shalt put some of thine honor upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
2721And 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.
2722And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
2723And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
281And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
282Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savor unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season.
283And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the LORD; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering.
284The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even;
285And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.
286It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savor, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD.
287And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the LORD for a drink offering.
288And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even: as the meat offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof, thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the LORD.
289And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof:
2810This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.
2811And in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without spot;
2812And three tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one bullock; and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one ram;
2813And a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil for a meat offering unto one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet savor, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD.
2814And their drink offerings shall be half an hin of wine unto a bullock, and the third part of an hin unto a ram, and a fourth part of an hin unto a lamb: this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.
2815And one kid of the goats for a sin offering unto the LORD shall be offered, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.
2816And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the LORD.
2817And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
2818In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work therein:
2819But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering unto the LORD; two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven lambs of the first year: they shall be unto you without blemish:

2823Ye shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.
2824After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the LORD: it shall be offered beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.
2825And on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work.
2826Also in the day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering unto the LORD, after your weeks be out, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work:
2827But ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savor unto the LORD; two young bullocks, one ram, seven lambs of the first year;
2828And their meat offering of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals unto one bullock, two tenth deals unto one ram,
2829A several tenth deal unto one lamb, throughout the seven lambs;
2830And one kid of the goats, to make an atonement for you.
2831Ye shall offer them beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat offering, (they shall be unto you without blemish) and their drink offerings.
291And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you.
292And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savor unto the LORD; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year without blemish:
293And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram,
294And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs:

296Beside the burnt offering of the month, and his meat offering, and the daily burnt offering, and his meat offering, and their drink offerings, according unto their manner, for a sweet savor, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD.
297And ye shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month an holy convocation; and ye shall afflict your souls: ye shall not do any work therein:

2940And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.
301And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.
302If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.
303If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth;
304And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
305But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the LORD shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
306And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;
307And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
308But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall forgive her.
309But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
3010And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;
3011And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
3012But 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.
3013Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
3014But 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.
3015But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.
3016These 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.
311And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
312Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.
313And 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.
314Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
315So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
316And 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.
317And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
318And 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.
319And 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.
3110And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
3111And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
3112And 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.
3113And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
3114And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
3115And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
3116Behold, 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.
3117Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
3118But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
3119And 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.
3120And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood.
3121And 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;
3122Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
3123Every 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.
3124And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
3125And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
3126Take 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:
3127And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:
3128And 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:
3129Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for an heave offering of the LORD.
3130And 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.
3131And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
3132And 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,
3133And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
3134And threescore and one thousand asses,
3135And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
3136And 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:
3137And the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
3138And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was threescore and twelve.
3139And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD's tribute was threescore and one.
3140And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was thirty and two persons.
3141And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
3142And 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,
3144And thirty and six thousand beeves,
3145And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,
3146And sixteen thousand persons;)
3147Even 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.
3148And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:
3149And 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.
3150We 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.
3151And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
3152And 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.)
3154And 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.
321Now 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;
322The 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,
323Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
324Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:
325Wherefore, 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.
326And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?
327And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?
328Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.
329For 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.
3210And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,
3211Surely 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:
3212Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.
3213And 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.
3214And, 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.
3215For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.
3216And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:
3217But 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.
3218We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.
3219For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.
3220And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,
3221And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,
3222And 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.
3223But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.
3224Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.
3225And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.
3226Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:
3227But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle, as my lord saith.
3228So 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:
3229And 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:
3230But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.
3231And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we do.
3232We 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.
3233And 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.
3234And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
3235And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
3236And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep.
3237And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
3238And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah: and gave other names unto the cities which they builded.
3239And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it.
3240And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt therein.
3241And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns thereof, and called them Havothjair.
3242And Nobah went and took Kenath, and the villages thereof, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
331These 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.
332And 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.
333And 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.
334For the Egyptians buried all their firstborn, which the LORD had smitten among them: upon their gods also the LORD executed judgments.
335And the children of Israel removed from Rameses, and pitched in Succoth.
336And they departed from Succoth, and pitched in Etham, which is in the edge of the wilderness.
337And they removed from Etham, and turned again unto Pihahiroth, which is before Baalzephon: and they pitched before Migdol.
338And 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.
339And 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.
3310And they removed from Elim, and encamped by the Red sea.
3311And they removed from the Red sea, and encamped in the wilderness of Sin.
3312And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin, and encamped in Dophkah.
3313And they departed from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush.
3314And they removed from Alush, and encamped at Rephidim, where was no water for the people to drink.
3315And they departed from Rephidim, and pitched in the wilderness of Sinai.
3316And they removed from the desert of Sinai, and pitched at Kibrothhattaavah.
3317And they departed from Kibrothhattaavah, and encamped at Hazeroth.
3318And they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah.
3319And they departed from Rithmah, and pitched at Rimmonparez.
3320And they departed from Rimmonparez, and pitched in Libnah.
3321And they removed from Libnah, and pitched at Rissah.
3322And they journeyed from Rissah, and pitched in Kehelathah.
3323And they went from Kehelathah, and pitched in mount Shapher.
3324And they removed from mount Shapher, and encamped in Haradah.
3325And they removed from Haradah, and pitched in Makheloth.
3326And they removed from Makheloth, and encamped at Tahath.
3327And they departed from Tahath, and pitched at Tarah.
3328And they removed from Tarah, and pitched in Mithcah.
3329And they went from Mithcah, and pitched in Hashmonah.
3330And they departed from Hashmonah, and encamped at Moseroth.
3331And they departed from Moseroth, and pitched in Benejaakan.
3332And they removed from Benejaakan, and encamped at Horhagidgad.
3333And they went from Horhagidgad, and pitched in Jotbathah.
3334And they removed from Jotbathah, and encamped at Ebronah.
3335And they departed from Ebronah, and encamped at Eziongaber.
3336And they removed from Eziongaber, and pitched in the wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.
3337And they removed from Kadesh, and pitched in mount Hor, in the edge of the land of Edom.
3338And 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.
3339And Aaron was an hundred and twenty and three years old when he died in mount Hor.
3340And king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel.
3341And they departed from mount Hor, and pitched in Zalmonah.
3342And they departed from Zalmonah, and pitched in Punon.
3343And they departed from Punon, and pitched in Oboth.
3344And they departed from Oboth, and pitched in Ijeabarim, in the border of Moab.
3345And they departed from Iim, and pitched in Dibongad.
3346And they removed from Dibongad, and encamped in Almondiblathaim.
3347And they removed from Almondiblathaim, and pitched in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo.
3348And they departed from the mountains of Abarim, and pitched in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
3349And they pitched by Jordan, from Bethjesimoth even unto Abelshittim in the plains of Moab.
3350And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
3351Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
3352Then 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:
3353And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it.
3354And 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.
3355But 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.
3356Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them.
341And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
342Command 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:)
343Then 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:
344And 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:
345And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.
346And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.
347And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for you mount Hor:
348From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad:
349And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border.
3410And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham:
3411And 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:
3412And 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.
3413And 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:
3414For 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:
3415The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising.
3416And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
3417These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
3418And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance.
3419And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
3420And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
3421Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
3422And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli.
3423The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod.
3424And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
3425And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
3426And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
3427And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
3428And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.
3429These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
351And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
352Command 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.
353And 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.
354And 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.
355And 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.
356And 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.
357So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs.
358And 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.
359And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
3510Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
3511Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares.
3512And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
3513And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.
3514Ye 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.
3515These 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.
3516And 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.
3517And 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.
3518Or 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.
3519The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
3520But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
3521Or 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.
3522But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
3523Or 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:
3524Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
3525And 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.
3526But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
3527And 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:
3528Because 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.
3529So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
3530Whoso 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.
3531Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
3532And 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.
3533So 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.
3534Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
361And 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:
362And 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.
363And 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.
364And 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.
365And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath said well.
366This 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.
367So 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.
368And 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.
369Neither 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.
3610Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad:
3611For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their father's brothers' sons:
3612And 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.
3613These 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.
