and above the thirty: and in his course [was] Ammizabad his son.

And Hur begat Uri, and Uri

begat Bezaleel. Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, [are] they not
written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? For other foundation can no man lay
than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. And the men of Israel were distressed that day: for
Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed [be] the man that eateth [any] food until evening,
that I may be avenged on mine enemies. The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will
receive my prayer. Stance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five
hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man
was the greatest of all the men of the east. And they burnt the house of God, and brake down the
wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly
vessels thereof. The LORD [was ready] to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the
stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD. Then took Mary a pound
of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with
her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. Then she came and told the
man of God. And he caused [it] to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of
the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let
them not feed, nor drink water: But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry
mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that
[is] in their hands. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are
called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of
Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. And Balak said unto Balaam, Neither curse them at
all, nor bless them at all. When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified,
and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. But woe unto you,
Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the
love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. I know thy pride,
and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.
And the LORD stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he [was] of the king’s
seed in Edom. He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: From following
the ewes great with young he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance. I
[am] my beloved’s, and his desire [is] toward me. And it repented the LORD that he had made man
on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold
and of my silver, which I had given thee, and madest to thyself images of men, and didst commit
whoredom with them, And tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them: and thou hast set
mine oil and mine incense before them. Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence
of your hands in the earth. The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Thus speaketh
the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
I Tertius, who wrote [this] epistle, salute you in the Lord. [or] shall a nation be born at
once? And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle
northward, without the vail. From heaven, or of men? T which is unsavoury be eaten without salt?
For [it is] better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil
doing. The tree that thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the
heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth; Whose leaves [were] fair, and the fruit thereof
much, and in it [was] meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose
branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation: It [is] thou, O king, that art grown and
become strong: for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end
of the earth. And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him. And
there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and
Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus. So I
prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and
the bones came together, bone to his bone. And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold,
then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise [and] eat. Give unto the LORD the glory due
unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. And this was yet a small thing in thy
sight, O Lord GOD; but thou hast spoken also of thy servant’s house for a great while to come.
The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. Seest thou a man
diligent in his business? For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in
Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children: That
the generation to come might know [them, even] the children [which] should be born; [who] should
arise and declare [them] to their children: That they might set their hope in God, and not
forget the works of God, but keep his commandments: And might not be as their fathers, a
stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation [that] set not their heart aright, and whose
spirit was not stedfast with God. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again. And after
that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and
led him away to crucify [him]. And this [is] the law which Moses set before the children of
Israel: These [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto
the children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt, On this side Jordan, in the valley
over against Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom
Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt: And they
possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which [were]
on this side Jordan toward the sunrising; From Aroer, which [is] by the bank of the river Arnon,
even unto mount Sion, which [is] Hermon, And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even
unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah. And what agreement hath the temple of
God with idols? And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of
Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon. Neither yield ye your
members [as] instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those
that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God. This
[is] the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath
despised thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at
thee. [are] thy years as man’s days, That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest
after my sin? And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the LORD had given him
rest round about from all his enemies; That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I
dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains. And they said, Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Notwithstanding the king’s
word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. They part my garments among
them, and cast lots upon my vesture. And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave him
Rachel his daughter to wife also. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same
God which worketh all in all. If the priest’s daughter also be [married] unto a stranger, she
may not eat of an offering of the holy things. But the house of Israel will not hearken unto
thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel [are] impudent and
hardhearted. These [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the
congregation. And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto
him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. But I determined this with myself,
that I would not come again to you in heaviness. But what went ye out for to see? And Judah
said, What shall we say unto my lord? And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh
[was] Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and
by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rereward with Achish. And they helped David
against the band [of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men of valour, and were captains in
the host. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken [meat] that was
left seven baskets full. So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim
and Manasseh even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them. Afterward he
appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and
hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen. Who
[is] this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? But [the sons] of Belial [shall
be] all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands: But the man
[that] shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be
utterly burned with fire in the [same] place. And thou, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith
the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even say thou, The sword,
the sword [is] drawn: for the slaughter [it is] furbished, to consume because of the glittering:
Whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine a lie unto thee, to bring thee upon the
necks of [them that are] slain, of the wicked, whose day is come, when their iniquity [shall
have] an end. Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the
house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him [was] Eleazar
the son of Phinehas; and with them [was] Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of
Binnui, Levites; By number [and] by weight of every one: and all the weight was written at that
time. And [Jesus] went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him. But some said,
Shall Christ come out of Galilee? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit
indeed [is] willing, but the flesh [is] weak. Then they hasted, and took every man his garment,
and put [it] under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king.
Behold, I [am] against thee, saith the LORD of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy
face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame. For evildoers shall
be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. The eye also
[which] saw him shall [see him] no more; neither shall his place any more behold him. Or how
wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam
[is] in thine own eye? Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: And I will
turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the
north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: And I will smite thy bow out of
thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. But of these who
seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man’s
person:) for they who seemed [to be somewhat] in conference added nothing to me: But
contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as [the
gospel] of the circumcision [was] unto Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the
apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) And when James,
Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they
gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] unto the heathen, and
they unto the circumcision. He saith unto him, Which? The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the
heathen are perished out of his land. And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai
with the two tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses
wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. And he was withdrawn from
them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, Saying, Father, if thou be willing,
remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And the men turned their
faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD. And at that
time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the offerings, for the
firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the
portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the
Levites that waited. And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to
face, and my life is preserved. But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto
you the King of the Jews? Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the
prophets, [and by] all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments
[and] my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to
you by my servants the prophets. And there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of
Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. And [there shall be] a knop under two branches of the
same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same,
according to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick. And these [are they] whom
David set over the service of song in the house of the LORD, after that the ark had rest. And in
the seventh month, on the first [day] of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall
do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you. And Paul said, But I was
[free] born. His bones are full [of the sin] of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the
dust. [art] not thou he, O LORD our God? By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the
departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. Weep ye not for
the dead, neither bemoan him: [but] weep sore for him that goeth away: for he shall return no
more, nor see his native country. And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham]
begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac [begat] Jacob; and Jacob [begat] the
twelve patriarchs. The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I
give waters in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my
chosen. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking
to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart
to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ; Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Because ye have burned
incense, and because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD,
nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is
happened unto you, as at this day. Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. I returned,
and saw under the sun, that the race [is] not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong,
neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of
skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. And when the children of Ammon saw that the
Syrians were fled, then fled they also before Abishai, and entered into the city. And Saul said
unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring [him] to me. And they told
him the tidings of the men of Jabesh. And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and
kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And they
built a city, and dwelt therein. Will he delight himself in the Almighty? Therefore thou shalt
say unto them, When ye have heaved the best thereof from it, then it shall be counted unto the
Levites as the increase of the threshingfloor, and as the increase of the winepress. Now
therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee. I beseech
you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and [that]
they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) That ye submit yourselves unto
such, and to every one that helpeth with [us], and laboureth. And he saith unto the man which
had the withered hand, Stand forth. Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their
heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall we
do? And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And do ye not know their
tokens, That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? And the fire of God came down
from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. And the thickness of it [was] an handbreadth, and
the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; [and] it received and
held three thousand baths. Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest’s office
for every thing of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your
priest’s office [unto you as] a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put
to death. And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell
among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute. [Men] shall clap their hands at
him, and shall hiss him out of his place. And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of
water, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away. Her children arise up, and call her
blessed; her husband [also], and he praiseth her. The people that walked in darkness have seen a
great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light
shined. And the LORD God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up betimes, and
sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place: But they mocked the
messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD
arose against his people, till [there was] no remedy. But into the second [went] the high priest
alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and [for] the errors of
the people: The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet
made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: Which [was] a figure for the time
then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did
the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; [Which stood] only in meats and drinks,
and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed [on them] until the time of reformation. And
he said, Call her. And all the oxen for the sacrifice of the peace offerings [were] twenty and
four bullocks, the rams sixty, the he goats sixty, the lambs of the first year sixty. For I will
cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will
bring evil upon them, [even] my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after
them, till I have consumed them: And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence
the king and the princes, saith the LORD. But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because
there is no light in him. And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were
found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king’s house, and hostages, and
returned to Samaria. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your
God. But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to
keep back [part] of the price of the land? Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy
the prophet, saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great
mourning, Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it] plain upon tables, that he
may run that readeth it. And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them
not. And she went to inquire of the LORD. For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot;
yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear: Because thou shalt forget [thy] misery, [and]
remember [it] as waters [that] pass away: And [thine] age shall be clearer than the noonday;
thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning. Let 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. For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received [them],
and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my kindred,
and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he
shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence. And thou
shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they [are] wholly given unto him out of the
children of Israel. Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her
pain, if so be she may be healed. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the
promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. And what cause soever
shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between
law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not
against the LORD, and [so] wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall
not trespass. Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God. And he spake, saying,
These [are] the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these
are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up [their] horn over
the land of Judah to scatter it. They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide
themselves together. And these [are] the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt,
Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn. Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help
of man. Happy [is] the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but
they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. In that day shall [one] take up a parable against
you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed
the portion of my people: how hath he removed [it] from me! turning away he hath divided our
fields. They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he
standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, [one] shall cry unto him, yet can he not
answer, nor save him out of his trouble. Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all good
things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you
all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God
hath given you. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son [to be] the Saviour
of the world. Whoso killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of
witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person [to cause him] to die. And when
he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the
father and the mother of the maiden. Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath
covered my face. And [if] in the land of peace, [wherein] thou trustedst, [they wearied thee],
then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan? For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in
darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness. For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall
therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile
yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Then answered Peter,
Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost
as well as we? And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be
drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD [am]
thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. And he that keepeth thy soul, doth [not]
he know [it]? Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his]
reward. I reckoned till morning, [that], as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day
[even] to night wilt thou make an end of me. Then there was a famine in the days of David three
years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And I will punish him and his seed and
his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they
hearkened not. And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood
offering, to bring [it] into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times
appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as [it is] written in the
law: And to bring the firstfruits of our ground, and the firstfruits of all fruit of all
trees, year by year, unto the house of the LORD: Also the firstborn of our sons, and of
our cattle, as [it is] written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, to
bring to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God: And
[that] we should bring the firstfruits of our dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of all
manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, to the chambers of the house of our God;
and the tithes of our ground unto the Levites, that the same Levites might have the tithes in
all the cities of our tillage. But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he
will curse thee to thy face. At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the
time of life, and Sarah shall have a son. And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were
come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward,

not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife. Salt [is] good: but if the
salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and
superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save
your souls. Neither [is] it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea
for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? The heaven shall reveal his
iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him. And a vision appeared to Paul in the night;
There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the
morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the
midst of the sea. For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to
signify the crimes [laid] against him. He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which
hated me: for they were too strong for me. Through God we shall do valiantly: for he [it is
that] shall tread down our enemies. And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I
would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. Shall this [fellow] come into
my house? Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul
also abhorred me. And they took him, and killed [him], and cast [him] out of the vineyard. And
it came to pass a long time after that the LORD had given rest unto Israel from all their
enemies round about, that Joshua waxed old [and] stricken in age. Their knops and their branches
were of the same: all of it [was] one beaten work [of] pure gold. For [it is] evident that our
Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood. Thus saith
the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the
people: and they shall bring thy sons in [their] arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon
[their] shoulders. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and

the Spirit of God dwell in you. And Moses [was] an hundred and twenty years old when he died:

number, [to wit], the chief fathers and captains of thousands and hundreds, and their officers
that served the king in any matter of the courses, which came in and went out month by month
throughout all the months of the year, of every course [were] twenty and four thousand. And the
LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be
come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you, And will make an offering by fire
unto the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering,
or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet savour unto the LORD, of the herd, or of the flock:
Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the LORD bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of
flour mingled with the fourth [part] of an hin of oil. Then Joshua commanded the officers of the
people, saying, Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for

your God giveth you to possess it. For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast
destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. A wise man [is] strong; yea, a man of knowledge
increaseth strength. I loathe [it]; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days [are]
vanity. And the measuring line shall yet go forth over against it upon the hill Gareb, and shall
