ELOHIST TORAH

Genesis 20
1And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south country, and dwelled between
Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.
2And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar
sent, and took Sarah.
3But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art
but a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.
4But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, LORD, wilt thou slay also a
righteous nation?
5Said he not unto me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my
brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.
6And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the
integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore
suffered I thee not to touch her.
7Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for
thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt
surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
8Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and
told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.
9Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and
what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great
sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
10And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this
thing?
11And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place;
and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
12And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the
daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
13And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I
said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place
whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
14And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave
them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
15And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
16And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of
silver: behold, he is to thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that are with thee,
and with all other: thus she was reproved.
17So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his
maidservants; and they bare children.
18For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because
of Sarah Abraham's wife.

Genesis 21
6And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with
me.
8And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day
that Isaac was weaned.
9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham,
mocking.
10Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son
of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
11And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
12And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the
lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken
unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy
seed.
14And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water,
and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her
away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the
shrubs.
16And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bow
shot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against
him, and lift up her voice, and wept.
17And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of
heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard
the voice of the lad where he is.
18Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great
nation.
19And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled
the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
20And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an
archer.
21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of
the land of Egypt.
22And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of
his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest:
23Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me,
nor with my son, nor with my son's son: but according to the kindness that I have
done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
24And Abraham said, I will swear.
25And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech's
servants had violently taken away.
26And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell
me, neither yet heard I of it, but to day.
27And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them
made a covenant.
28And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast
set by themselves?
30And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may
be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.
31Wherefore he called that place Beersheba; because there they sware both of them.
32Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the
chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
33And Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the
LORD, the everlasting God.
34And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines' land many days.

Genesis 22
1And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto
him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
2And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get
thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of
the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his
young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering,
and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.
4Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
5And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad
will go yonder and worship, and I shall come again to you.
6And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son;
and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.
7And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am
I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a
burnt offering?
8And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so
they went both of them together.
9And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar
there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the
altar upon the wood.
10And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
16saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy
son, thine only son
17That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed
as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy
seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
18And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast
obeyed my voice.
19So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to
Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

Genesis 25
1Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
2And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and
Shuah.
3And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and
Letushim, and Leummim.
4And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All
these were the children of Keturah.

Genesis 28
11and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay
down in that place to sleep.
12And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it
reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
17And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but
the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
18And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for
his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
20And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this
way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
21So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my
God:
22And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all
that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.

Genesis 30
1Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
2And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's stead,
who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
3And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my
knees, that I may also have children by her.
4and Jacob went in unto her.
5And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.
6And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given
me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
7And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.
8And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have
prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.
9When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her
Jacob to wife.
10And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a son.
11And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name Gad.
12And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son.
13And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called
his name Asher.
14And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field,
and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray
thee, of thy son's mandrakes.
15And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and
wouldest thou take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he
shall lie with thee to night for thy son's mandrakes.
16And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him,
and said, Thou must come in unto me; for surely I have hired thee with my son's
mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
17And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.
18And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my
husband: and she called his name Issachar.
19And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.
20And Leah said, God hath endued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell
with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.
21And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
22And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
23And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:
24And she called his name Joseph;

Genesis 31
1And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that was
our father's; and of that which was our father's hath he gotten all this glory.
2And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as
before.
4And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
5And said unto them, I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as
before; but the God of my father hath been with me.
6And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
7And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times; but God suffered
him not to hurt me.
8If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bare
speckled: and if he said thus, The ringstraked shall be thy hire; then bare all the
cattle ringstraked.
9Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
10And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up mine
eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle were
ringstraked, speckled, and grisled.
11And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am
I.
12And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon the
cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth
unto thee.
13I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst
a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of
thy kindred.
14And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or
inheritance for us in our father's house?
15Are we not counted of him strangers? for he hath sold us, and hath quite devoured
also our money.
16For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our
children's: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.
19And Laban went to shear his sheep: and Rachel had stolen the images that were her
father's.
20And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that
he fled.
21So he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and
set his face toward the mount Gilead.
22And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled.
23And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey; and
they overtook him in the mount Gilead.
24And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take
heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
25Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban
with his brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead.
26And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares
to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?
27Wherefore didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and didst not
tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret,
and with harp?
28And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? thou hast now done
foolishly in so doing.
29It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spake
unto me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either
good or bad.
30And now, though thou wouldest needs be gone, because thou sore longedst after thy
father's house, yet wherefore hast thou stolen my gods?
31And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said,
Peradventure thou wouldest take by force thy daughters from me.
32With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren
discern thou what is thine with me, and take it to thee. For Jacob knew not that
Rachel had stolen them.
33And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two
maidservants' tents; but he found them not. Then went he out of Leah's tent, and
entered into Rachel's tent.
34Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel's furniture, and sat
upon them. And Laban searched all the tent, but found them not.
35And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up
before thee; for the custom of women is upon me. And he searched, but found not the
images.
36And Jacob was wroth, and chode with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban,
What is my trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?
37Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy
household stuff? set it here before my brethren and thy brethren, that they may
judge betwixt us both.
38This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast
their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.
39That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I bare the loss of it; of
my hand didst thou require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.
40Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my
sleep departed from mine eyes.
41Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy
two daughters, and six years for thy cattle: and thou hast changed my wages ten
times.
42Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been
with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now empty. God hath seen mine affliction
and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesternight.
43And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, These daughters are my daughters, and
these children are my children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that thou
seest is mine: and what can I do this day unto these my daughters, or unto their
children which they have born?
44Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a
witness between me and thee.
45And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
46And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made
an heap: and they did eat there upon the heap.
47And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.
48And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore
was the name of it called Galeed;

Genesis 32
1And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God's host: and he called the name of
that place Mahanaim.
3And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir,
the country of Edom.
14Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
15Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she
asses, and ten foals.
16And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by themselves;
and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and
drove.
17And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and
asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these
before thee?
18Then thou shalt say, They be thy servant Jacob's; it is a present sent unto my
lord Esau: and, behold, also he is behind us.
19And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves,
saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.
20And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will
appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his
face; peradventure he will accept of me.
21So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the
company.
22And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and
his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.
23And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.
24And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of
the day.
25And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his
thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
26And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee
go, except thou bless me.
27And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince
hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
29And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said,
Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.
30And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face,
and my life is preserved.
31And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.
32Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon
the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's
thigh in the sinew that shrank.

Genesis 33
1And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him
four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto
the two handmaids.
2And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children
after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.
3And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until
he came near to his brother.
4And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him:
and they wept.
5And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are
those with thee? And he said, The children which God hath graciously given thy
servant.
6Then the handmaidens came near, they and their children, and they bowed
themselves.
7And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came
Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
8And he said, What meanest thou by all this drove which I met? And he said, These
are to find grace in the sight of my lord.
9And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; keep that thou hast unto thyself.
10And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then
receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had
seen the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me.
11Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt
graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.
12And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.
13And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the
flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day,
all the flock will die.
14Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on
softly, according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to
endure, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.
15And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee some of the folk that are with me. And
he said, What needeth it? Let me find grace in the sight of my lord.
16So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.
17And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his
cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
18And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, and
pitched his tent before the city
19And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of
the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for an hundred pieces of money.
20And he erected there an altar, and called it EleloheIsrael.

Genesis 35
1And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there: and make there
an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau
thy brother.
2Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the
strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments:
3And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar unto God,
who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
4And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all
their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was
by Shechem.
5And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round
about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
6So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all
the people that were with him.
7And he built there an altar, and called the place Elbethel: because there God
appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
8But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak:
and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
16And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to
Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.
17And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her,
Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.
18And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called
his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin.
19And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.
20And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: that is the pillar of Rachel's grave unto
this day.

Genesis 37
3Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his
old age
4And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren,
they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
12And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come,
and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
14And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren,
and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale
of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
15And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the
man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
16And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their
flocks.
17And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to
Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they
conspired against him to slay him.
21And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us
not kill him.
22And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that is in
the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their hands,
to deliver him to his father again.
24And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no
water in it.
25And they sat down to eat bread:
28Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph
out of the pit,
29And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he
rent his clothes.
30And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither
shall I go?
36And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's,
and captain of the guard.

Genesis 40
1And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and
his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the
butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison,
the place where Joseph was bound.
4And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and
they continued a season in ward.
5And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man
according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king
of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
6And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold,
they were sad.
7And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's
house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?
8And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of
it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them,
I pray you.
9And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream,
behold, a vine was before me;
10And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her
blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
11And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into
Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches
are three days:
13Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy
place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner
when thou wast his butler.
14But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee,
unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
15For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I
done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I
also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
17And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and
the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.
18And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three
baskets are three days:
19Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall
hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
20And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a
feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of
the chief baker among his servants.
21And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup
into Pharaoh's hand:
22But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.

Genesis 41
1And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and,
behold, he stood by the river.
2And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and
fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
3And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured
and leanfleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the river.
4And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and
fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
5And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up
upon one stalk, rank and good.
6And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
7And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke,
and, behold, it was a dream.
8And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and
called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh
told them his dream; but there was none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.
9Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this
day:
10Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the
guard's house, both me and the chief baker:
11And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to
the interpretation of his dream.
12And there was there with us a young man, an Hebrew, servant to the captain of the
guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according
to his dream he did interpret.
13And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine
office, and him he hanged.
14Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the
dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.
15And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can
interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to
interpret it.
16And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an
answer of peace.
17And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the
river:
18And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well
favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
19And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and
leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
20And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:
21And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them;
but they were still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
22And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and
good:
23And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung
up after them:
24And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the
magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.
25And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed
Pharaoh what he is about to do.
26The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the
dream is one.
27And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years;
and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.
28This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he
sheweth unto Pharaoh.
29Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
30And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall
be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;
31And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following;
for it shall be very grievous.
32And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is
established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
33Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the
land of Egypt.
34Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the
fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years.
35And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn
under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities.
36And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine,
which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.
37And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his
servants.
38And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in
whom the Spirit of God is?
39And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there
is none so discreet and wise as thou art:
40Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be
ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.
41And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
42And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and
arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;
43And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before
him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.
44And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up
his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
45And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath
the daughter of Potipherah priest of On.
46And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the
land of Egypt.
47And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.
48And he gathered up all the food of the seven years, which were in the land of
Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field, which was round
about every city, laid he up in the same.
49And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left
numbering; for it was without number.
50And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath
the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him.
51And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made
me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.
52And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be
fruitful in the land of my affliction.
53And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
54And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and
the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
55And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for
bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to
you, do.
56And the famine was over all the face of the earth: And Joseph opened all the
storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of
Egypt.
57And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the
famine was so sore in all lands.

Genesis 42
5And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came: for the famine was
in the land of Canaan.
6And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the
people of the land: and Joseph's brethren came, and bowed down themselves before
him with their faces to the earth.
7And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made himself strange unto them,
and spake roughly unto them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said,
From the land of Canaan to buy food.
21And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in
that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear;
therefore is this distress come upon us.
22And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin
against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is
required.
23And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spake unto them by an
interpreter.
24And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and
communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.
25Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's
money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto
them.
35And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man's bundle
of money was in his sack: and when both they and their father saw the bundles of
money, they were afraid.
36And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved of my children: Joseph
is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin away: all these things are
against me.
37And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to
thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.
Genesis 43
14And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other
brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.
18And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they
said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we
brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for
bondmen, and our asses.
19And they came near to the of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the
door of the house,
20And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:
21And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and,
behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight:
and we have brought it again in our hand.
22And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who
put our money in our sacks.
23And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father,
hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out
unto them.

Genesis 45
3And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his
brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.

Genesis 46
1And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and
offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac.
2And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And
he said, Here am I.
3And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for
I will there make of thee a great nation:
4I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up again:
and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes.
5And Jacob rose up from Beersheba.

Genesis 47
7And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob
blessed Pharaoh.
8And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old art thou?
9And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred
and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have
not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of
their pilgrimage.
10And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.

Genesis 48
1And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father
is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
2And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel
strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.
8And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these?
9And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this
place. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
10Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought
them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
11And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath
shewed me also thy seed.
12And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his
face to the earth.
13And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand,
and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near
unto him.
14And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was
the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly;
for Manasseh was the firstborn.
15And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac
did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,
16The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be
named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into
a multitude in the midst of the earth.
17And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim,
it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's
head unto Manasseh's head.
18And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn;
put thy right hand upon his head.
19And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall
become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be
greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
20And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God
make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
21And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring
you again unto the land of your fathers.
22Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of
the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.

Genesis 50
24And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and
bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and
to Jacob.
25And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit
you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
26So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he
was put in a coffin in Egypt.

Exodus 1
11Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens.
And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses.
12But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they
were grieved because of the children of Israel.
15And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one
was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:
16And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them
upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter,
then she shall live.
17But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but
saved the men children alive.
18And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye
done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?
19And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the
Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in
unto them.
20Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed
very mighty.
21And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
22And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast
into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.

Exodus 2
1And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly
child, she hid him three months.
3And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and
daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in
the flags by the river's brink.
4And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
5And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her
maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags,
she sent her maid to fetch it.
6And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she
had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
7Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of
the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's
mother.
9And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me,
and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.

Exodus 3
1Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he
led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even
to Horeb.
6Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
9Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I
have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.
10Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring
forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
11And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I
should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
12And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee,
that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye
shall serve God upon this mountain.
13And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and
shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall
say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
14And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto
the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
15And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of
Israel, the LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my
memorial unto all generations.
16Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, The LORD God of
your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying,
I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt:
17And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.
18And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders of
Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three days' journey
into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.

Exodus 4
1And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken
unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.
2And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.
3And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a
serpent; and Moses fled from before it.
4And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And
he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:
5That they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the
God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee.
6And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And he
put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous
as snow.
7And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his
bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again as
his other flesh.
8And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the
voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
9And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither
hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour it
upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river shall become
blood upon the dry land.
10And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore,
nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow
tongue.
11And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or
deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?
12Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt
say.
13And he said, O my LORD, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt
send.
14And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron
the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh
forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart.
15And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy
mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.
16And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall be
to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God.
17And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do signs.
18And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and said unto him, Let
me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see whether
they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
20and Moses took the rod of God in his hand
21And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou
do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand:
22And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is my son, even my
firstborn:
23And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to
let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn.
27And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went,
and met him in the mount of God, and kissed him.
28And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent him, and all the
signs which he had commanded him.
29And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of
Israel:
30And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and did the
signs in the sight of the people.
31And the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had visited the
children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed
their heads and worshipped.

Exodus 5
3And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee,
three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest he
fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.
4And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the
people from their works? get you unto your burdens.
5And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them
rest from their burdens.
6And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their
officers, saying,
7Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go
and gather straw for themselves.
8And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon
them; ye shall not diminish ought thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cry,
saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.
9Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let
them not regard vain words.
10And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to
the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.
11Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be
diminished.
12So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather
stubble instead of straw.
13And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil your works, your daily tasks, as
when there was straw.
14And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's taskmasters had set
over them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in
making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore?
15Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying,
Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?
16There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and,
behold, thy servants are beaten; but the fault is in thine own people.
17But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore ye say, Let us go and do
sacrifice to the LORD.
18Go therefore now, and work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye
deliver the tale of bricks.
19And the officers of the children of Israel did see that they were in evil case,
after it was said, Ye shall not minish ought from your bricks of your daily task.
20And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from
Pharaoh:
21And they said unto them, The LORD look upon you, and judge; because ye have made
our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,
to put a sword in their hand to slay us.
22And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, LORD, wherefore hast thou so evil
entreated this people? why is it that thou hast sent me?
23For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this
people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all.

Exodus 6
1Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for
with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them
out of his land.

Exodus 7
15and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand.
16saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold,
hitherto thou wouldest not hear.
17behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are
in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.
20and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
24And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they
could not drink of the water of the river.

Exodus 8
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the
LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with
frogs:
3And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into
thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy
servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
20And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before
Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD,
Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon
thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the
houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground
whereon they are.
22And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that
no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the LORD
in the midst of the earth.
23And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this
sign be.
24And the LORD did so; the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.

Exodus 9
1Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the
LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,
3Behold, the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle which is in the field, upon the
horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: there
shall be a very grievous murrain.
4And the LORD shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt: and
there shall nothing die of all that is the children's of Israel.
5And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the LORD shall do this thing
in the land.
6And the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died: but
of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one.
7And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites
dead. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
13And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before
Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people
go, that they may serve me.
14For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy
servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in
all the earth.
15For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people with
pestilence; and thou shalt be cut off from the earth.
16And in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my
power; and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth.
17As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people, that thou wilt not let them go?
18Behold, to morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail,
such as hath not been in Egypt since the foundation thereof even until now.
19Send therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field;
for upon every man and beast which shall be found in the field, and shall not be
brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die.
20He that feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his
servants and his cattle flee into the houses:
21And he that regarded not the word of the LORD left his servants and his cattle in
the field.
22And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch forth thine hand toward heaven, that there
may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb
of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.
23And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the LORD sent thunder and
hail, and the fire ran along upon the ground;
24So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous,
25and the hail smote every herb of the field, and brake every tree of the field.
26Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.
31And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the ear, and the
flax was bolled.
32But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for they were not grown up.

Exodus 10
1And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart,
and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
2And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what
things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye
may know how that I am the LORD.
3And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD
God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my
people go, that they may serve me.
4Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the
locusts into thy coast:
5And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the
earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth
unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the
field:
6And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses
of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have
seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned
himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
12And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for
the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of
the land, even all that the hail hath left.
13And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt,
14And the locust went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts
of Egypt:before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall
be such.
21And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there
may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
22And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness
in all the land of Egypt three days:
23They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all
the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

Exodus 11
1And the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and
upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go, he shall
surely thrust you out hence altogether.
4And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the midst
of Egypt:
5And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first born of
Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant
that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts.
6And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was
none like it, nor shall be like it any more.
7But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against
man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the
Egyptians and Israel.
8And all these thy servants shall come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto
me, saying, Get thee out, and all the people that follow thee: and after that I
will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.

Exodus 12
21Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and
take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.
22And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the
bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the
bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.
23For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the
blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door,
and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
24And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for
ever.
25And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the LORD will give
you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.
26And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by
this service?
27That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the LORD's passover, who passed over
the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and
delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.
33And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of
the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.
37about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children
38And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very
much cattle.

Exodus 13
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children
of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine.
17And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not
through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God
said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to
Egypt:
18But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea:
and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.
19And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the
children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my
bones away hence with you.

Exodus 14
5And the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and
they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
7And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and
captains over every one of them.
11And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken
us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry
us forth out of Egypt?
12Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that
we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians,
than that we should die in the wilderness.
19And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went
behind them;
20And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel;
25And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily:

Exodus 15
20And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and
all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously;
the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
25there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
26And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and
wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments,
and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I
have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

Exodus 17
2Wherefore the people said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto
them, wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?
3And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses,
and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us
and our children and our cattle with thirst?
4And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be
almost ready to stone me.
5And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the
elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine
hand, and go.
6Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt
smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink.
And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7And he called the name of the place Massah, because they tempted the LORD, saying,
Is the LORD among us, or not?
8Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to
morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.
10So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron,
and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when
he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12But Moses hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he
sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and
the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the
sun.
13And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse
it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from
under heaven.
15And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:
16For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek
from generation to generation.

Exodus 18
1When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father in law, heard of all that God had
done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and that the LORD had brought Israel out
of Egypt;
2Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent
her back,
3And her two sons; of which the name of the one was Gershom; for he said, I have
been an alien in a strange land:
4And the name of the other was Eliezer; for the God of my father, said he, was mine
help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh:
5And Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into
the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God:
6And he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy
wife, and her two sons with her.
7And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him;
and they asked each other of their welfare; and they came into the tent.
8And Moses told his father in law all that the LORD had done unto Pharaoh and to
the Egyptians for Israel's sake, and all the travail that had come upon them by the
way, and how the LORD delivered them.
9And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the LORD had done to Israel, whom
he had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.
10And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD, who hath delivered you out of the hand of
the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from
under the hand of the Egyptians.
11Now I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they
dealt proudly he was above them.
12And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God:
and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in
law before God.
13And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the
people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening.
14And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is
this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all
the people stand by thee from morning unto even?
15And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire
of God:
16When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another,
and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.
17And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
18Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for
this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
19Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee:
Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:
20And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way
wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.
21Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men
of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands,
and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:
22And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great
matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so
shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.
23If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to
endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.
24So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had
said.
25And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people,
rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
26And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto
Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.
27And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.

Exodus 19
3And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain,
saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
4Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings,
and brought you unto myself.
5Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye
shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
6And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the
words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
7And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their
faces all these words which the LORD commanded him.
8And all the people answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken we
will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the LORD.
9And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the
people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told
the words of the people unto the LORD.
17And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they
stood at the nether part of the mount.
18And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in
fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount
quaked greatly.
19And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder,
Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.
25So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them.

Exodus 20
18And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the
trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and
stood afar off.
19And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God
speak with us, lest we die.
20And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that
his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
21And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where
God was.
22And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye
have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of
gold.
24An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt
offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where
I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
25And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn
stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
26Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not
discovered thereon.

Exodus 21
1Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
2If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he
shall go out free for nothing.
3If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his
wife shall go out with him.
4If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the
wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
5And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children;
I will not go out free:
6Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the
door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul;
and he shall serve him for ever.
7And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the
menservants do.
8If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let
her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing
he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
9And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner
of daughters.
10If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage,
shall he not diminish.
11And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
12He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.
13And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver him into his hand; then I will
appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
14But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou
shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
15And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
16And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he
shall surely be put to death.
17And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
18And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist,
and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
19If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him be
quit: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be
thoroughly healed.
20And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his
hand; he shall be surely punished.
21Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is
his money.
22If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her,
and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's
husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
23And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
24Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it
perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
27And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth; he shall
let him go free for his tooth's sake.
28If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely
stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
29But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been
testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man
or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
30If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his
life whatsoever is laid upon him.
31Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment
shall it be done unto him.
32If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their
master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
33And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and
an ox or an ass fall therein;
34The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them;
and the dead beast shall be his.
35And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die; then they shall sell the live
ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide.
36Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath
not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.

Exodus 22
1If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore
five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood
be shed for him.
3If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should
make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or
sheep; he shall restore double.
5If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast,
and shall feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the
best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
6If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the
standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall
surely make restitution.
7If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen
out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
8If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the
judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
9For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment,
or for any manner of lost thing which another challengeth to be his, the cause of
both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he
shall pay double unto his neighbour.
10If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast,
to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
11Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his
hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he
shall not make it good.
12And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
13If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make
good that which was torn.
14And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner
thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
15But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired
thing, it came for his hire.
16And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall
surely endow her to be his wife.
17If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according
to the dowry of virgins.
18Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly
destroyed.
21Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the
land of Egypt.
22Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear
their cry;
24And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives
shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to
him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto
him by that the sun goeth down:
27For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he
sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I
am gracious.
28Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors:
the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
30Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall
be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
31And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of
beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

Exodus 23
1Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an
unrighteous witness.
2Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause
to decline after many to wrest judgment:
3Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
4If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it
back to him again.
5If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest
forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him.
6Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
7Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not:
for I will not justify the wicked.
8And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the
words of the righteous.
9Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger,
seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
10And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
11But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy
people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like
manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.
12Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that
thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may
be refreshed.
13And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention
of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
14Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.
15Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread
seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it
thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)
16And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown in
the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou
hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.
17Three items in the year all thy males shall appear before the LORD God.
18Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall
the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning.
19The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the
LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
20Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee
into the place which I have prepared.
21Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your
transgressions: for my name is in him.
22But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be
an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.
23For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the
Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
and I will cut them off.
24Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works:
but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images.
25And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy
water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
26There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of
thy days I will fulfil.
27I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou
shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.
28And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the
Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.
29I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become
desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
30By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be
increased, and inherit the land.
31And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even unto the sea of the Philistines,
and from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land
into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee.
32Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
33They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me: for if thou
serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee.

Exodus 24
3And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the
judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words
which the LORD hath said will we do.
4And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and
builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes
of Israel.
5And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings,
and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
6And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he
sprinkled on the altar.
7And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and
they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
8And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the
blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these
words.
12And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I
will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written;
that thou mayest teach them.
13And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of
God.
14And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you:
and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him
come unto them.
15And Moses went up into the mount,
18and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.

Exodus 32
1And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the
people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us
gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up
out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
2And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of
your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
3And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and
brought them unto Aaron.
4And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he
had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which
brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
5And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation,
and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
6And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought
peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou
broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
8They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have
made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and
said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of
Egypt.
15And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the
testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one
side and on the other were they written.
16And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God,
graven upon the tables.
17And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto
Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
18And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it
the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I
hear.
19And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf,
and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his
hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
20And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it
to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of
it.
21And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought
so great a sin upon them?
22And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people,
that they are set on mischief.
23For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this
Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is
become of him.
24And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they
gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
25And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked
unto their shame among their enemies:)
26Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side?
let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto
him.
27And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword
by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay
every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
28And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of
the people that day about three thousand men.
29For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today to the LORD, even every man upon
his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
30And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have
sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make
an atonement for your sin.
31And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great
sin, and have made them gods of gold.
32Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out
of thy book which thou hast written.
33And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot
out of my book.
34Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto
thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit
I will visit their sin upon them.
35And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.

Exodus 33
5For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a
stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume
thee: therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do
unto thee.
6And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount
Horeb.
7And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the
camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that
every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation,
which was without the camp.
8And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people
rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was
gone into the tabernacle.
9And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar
descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
10And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all
the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
11And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend.
And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young
man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

Numbers 11
1And 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.
2And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was
quenched.
3And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt
among them.
16And 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.
17And 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.
24and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round
about the tabernacle.
25And 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.
26But 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.
27And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy
in the camp.
28And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered
and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.
29And 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!
30And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

Numbers 12
1And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he
had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.
2And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath he not spoken also
by us? And the LORD heard it.
3(Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of
the earth.)
4And 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.
5And 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.
6And 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.
7My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.
8With 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?
9And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.
10And 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.
11And 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.
12Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out
of his mother's womb.
13And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee.
14And 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.
15And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not
till Miriam was brought in again.

Numbers 13
17and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:
18And see the land, what it is, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
20And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein,
or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time
was the time of the firstripe grapes.
21So they went up,
23And 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.
24The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the
children of Israel cut down from thence.
26and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them
the fruit of the land.
27surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
29The 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.
33And 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.

Numbers 14
1and cried;
4And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
6And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that
searched the land, rent their clothes:
7And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel,
8If 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.
9neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence
is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not.
25(Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.) Tomorrow turn you,
and get you into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
39and the people mourned greatly.
40And 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.

Numbers 16
1and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab,
12And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will
not come up:
14Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey,
or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards:
25And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel
followed him.
27and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents,
32And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses,
33and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.
34And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said,
Lest the earth swallow us up also.

Numbers 20
14And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy
brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
15How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and
the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
16And 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:
17Let 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.
18And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee
with the sword.
21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border:

Numbers 21
4and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
5And 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.
6And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and
much people of Israel died.
7Therefore 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.
8And 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.
9And 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.
21And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22Let 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.
23And 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.
24And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from
Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon:

Numbers 22
2And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
3And Moab was sore afraid of the people, because they were many:
4And 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.
5Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt: behold, they cover the face of the
earth, and they abide over against me:
6Come 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.
7And 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.
8And 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.
9And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee?
10And Balaam said unto God, Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, hath sent unto
me,
12And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the
people: for they are blessed.
13And 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.
14And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said, Balaam
refuseth to come with us.
15And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.
16And 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:
18And 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.
19Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what
the LORD will say unto me more.
20And 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.
21And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes
of Moab.
36And 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.
37And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee?
wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour?
38And 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.
40And Balak offered oxen and sheep, and sent to Balaam, and to the princes that
were with him.
41And 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.

Numbers 23
1And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven
oxen and seven rams.
2And Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a
bullock and a ram.
3And Balaam said unto Balak, Stand by thy burnt offering, and I will go:
peradventure the LORD will come to meet me: and whatsoever he sheweth me I will
tell thee. And he went to an high place.
4And 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.
5And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus
thou shalt speak.
6And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all
the princes of Moab.
7And 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.
8How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD
hath not defied?
9For 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.
10Who 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!
11And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse
mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether.
12And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath
put in my mouth?
13And 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.
14And 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.
15And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet the LORD
yonder.
16And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again unto
Balak, and say thus.
17And 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?
18And he took up his parable, and said, Rise up, Balak, and hear; hearken unto me,
thou son of Zippor:
19God 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?
20Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot
reverse it.
21He 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.
22God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.
23Surely 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!
24Behold, 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.
25And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all.
26But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, Told not I thee, saying, All that the
LORD speaketh, that I must do?
27And 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.
28And Balak brought Balaam unto the top of Peor, that looketh toward Jeshimon.
29And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven
bullocks and seven rams.
30And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar.

Numbers 24
1And 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.
10And 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.
11Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great
honour; but, lo, the LORD hath kept thee back from honour.
12And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest
unto me, saying,
13If 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?
14And 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.
20And 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.
21And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy
dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
22Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away
captive.
23And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
24And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and
shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.

Numbers 32
1Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of
cattle:
16And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our
cattle, and cities for our little ones:
17But 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.
18We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited
every man his inheritance.
19For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our
inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.
20And Moses said unto them,
24Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that
which hath proceeded out of your mouth.
34And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
35And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
36And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep.
37And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
38And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah: and gave other
names unto the cities which they builded.

Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, that I may
give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the
tabernacle of the congregation.
15And the LORD appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of a cloud: and the pillar of
the cloud stood over the door of the tabernacle.
23And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good
courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware
unto them: and I will be with thee.

Israel before his death.

Deuteronomy 34
1And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of
Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And the LORD shewed him all the land of
Gilead, unto Dan,
2And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of
Judah, unto the utmost sea,
3And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees,
unto Zoar.
4And the LORD said unto him, This is the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto
Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give it unto thy seed: I have caused thee to
see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither.
5So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the
word of the LORD.
6And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no
man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
