IK^tlie "^ beginning ""God created
the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form,
and void; and. darkness was upon
the face of the deep.-' ^^ And the
Spirit of God moved ujion the face
of the waters.
3 '^Aud God said, ^ Let there be
Ught : and there was light.
4 J^Mil God saw the hght, that U
was good : and God divided Hhe
light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light ^Day,-
and the darkness he called Night.
^ And the evening and the morn-
ing were the first day.
Q^{ And God said, 'Let there be
a 1^ firmament in the midst of the
waters, and let it divide the wa-
ters from the waters.
7 Aiid God made the firmament,
^ and divided the waters which ivere
under the firmament from the wa-
ters which ivere 'above the firma-
ment : and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament
Heaven. And the evening and the
morning were the secotid day.
9 «[ And God said, ''Let the wa-
ters under the heaven be gathered
together unto one place, and let
the dry land "appear: and it was so.
10 And God called tlie dry land
Earth ; and the gathering together
of the waters called he Seas : and
God saw that it was good.
11 And God said. Let the earth
' bring forth ^ gi-ass, the herb yield-
ing seed, and the fruit tree yield-
ing "fruit after his kind, whose
seed is in itself, upon the earth:
and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth
grass, and herb yielding seed after
his kind, and the tree yielding'
fruit, whose seed was in itself, aft-
er his kind: and God saw that it
ivas good.
13 And the evening and the
morning were the third day.
14 1" And God said, Let there be
in the firmament of the
divide Uhe day from
and let them be for
"for seasons, and for
days, and years :
15 And let them be for lig4its in

give light upon the earth : and it
was s#.
16 And God "made two great
lights; the greater light ^to rule
the day, and "the lesser light to
rule the night: lie made^ihG stars'
also.
17 And God set them in the firm- |
anient of the heaven to give light
upon the earth,
18 And to ^ruie over the day and
over the night, and to divide the
light from the darkness : and God
saw that it ivas good.
19 And the evening and the
morning were the fourth day.
20 And God said, Let the waters
bring forth abundantly the "mov-
ing "creature that hath * life, and
t fowl that may fly above the earth
in the ^open firmament of heaven.
21 And ^ God created great whales,
and every living creature that mov-
eth, which the waters brought forth

and God saw that it i6Y<.s- good.
22 And God blessed them, saying,
"Be fruitful, and multiply, and till

25 And God made the beast of the
earth after his kind, and cattle aft-
er their kind, and every thing that
creepeth upon the earth after his
kind : and God saw that it was
good.
2G ^ And God said, ''Let us make
man in oiu* image, after our like-
ness: and ^let them have domin-
ion over the fish of the sea, and
over the fowl of the air, and over
the cattle, and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his oivn
image, ''in the image of God cre-
ated he him ; ^ male and female
created he them.
28 And (Tod blessed them, and
God said imto, them, ^Be Iruitful,
and multiply, and replenish the
earth, and subdue it": and have
dominion over the fish of the sea,
.-.1. e.
and over the fowl of thdair, and
over every living thing that ^mov-
eth upon the earth.
20 t And God said, Behold, I
have given you every herb * bear-
ing seed, which is upon the face of
all the earth, and every tree, in the
which is the fruit of a tree yielding
seed ; "^to you it shall be for meat.
30 And to '^ every beast of the
earth, and to every *fowl of the
air, and to every thing that creep-
eth ui)on the earth, wherein there
is mi'ii, I have (jivrn every green
herb for meat: and it was so.
31 And ' God saw every thing that
he had mad<', and, behold, it was
very good. And tlie evening and
the morning were the sixth day.

3 And God '^blessed the seventh
day, and sanctified it : because that
in it he had rested from all his
work which God ^ created and made.
4. 1" '• These are the generations of
the heavens and of the earth when
they were created, in the day that
the Lord God made the earth and
the heavens,
5 And every ^ plant of the field
before it was in tlie earth, and ev-
ery herb of the field before it grew:
for the Lord God had not ^ caused
it to rain upon the earth, and there
was not a man ^to till the ground.
6 But 'I there went ui) a mist from
the earth, and watered the whole
face of the gromid.
7 And the Lord God formed man
^of the ^dust of the ground, and
'breathed into Ms ^nostrils the
breath of life ; and ' man became a
living soul.
8 1 And the Lord God planted
" a garden " eastward in " Eden ; and
there f'he put the man whom he
had formed.
9 And out of the ground made
the Lord God to grow •* every tree
that is ijleasant to the sight, and
good for food ; '^the tree of life also
in the midst of the garden, 'and
the tree of knowledge of good and
evil.
10 And a river went out of Eden
to water the garden ; and from
thence it was parted, and became
into four heads.
11 The name of the first is Pison:
that is it which compasseth *the
whole land of Havilah, where there
is gold;
12 And the gold of that land is
good : " there is bdellium and the
onyx stone.
J 3 And the name of the second
river is Gilion : the same is it
that compasseth the whole land of

er is *lliddekel: that is it which
goeth "toward the'' east of AssjTia.

15 And the Lord God took "the
man, and ^ put him into the garden
of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16 And the Lord God command-
ed the man, saying, Of every tree
of the garden Hhou maj^est freely
eat:
17 ^But of the tree of the knowl-
edge of good and evil, " thou shalt
not eat of it : for in the day that
thou eatest thereof "♦thou shalt
surely die.
18 \ And the Lord God said, It
is not good that the man should
be alone ; '^I will make him a help
hneet for hira.
19 "^And out of the ground the
Lord God formed every beast of
the field, and* every fowl of the
air; and 'brought them nnto "Adam
to see what he would call them:
and whatsoever Adam called every
living creature, that was the name
thereof.
20 And Adam ^gave names to
all cattle, and to the fowl of the
ail*, and to every boast of the field;
but for Adam there was not found
a help meet for him.
21 And the Lord God caused a
*^deep sleep to fall upon Adam,
and he slept; and he took one of
liis ribs, and closed up the flesh
instead thereof.
22 And the rib, which the Lord
God had taken from man, ^made
he a woman,— and ^brought her
unto the man.
23 And Adam said, This is now
•"bone of my bones, and flesh of
my flesh : she shall be called ♦ Wo-_
man, because she was 'taken out
oft man.
24 "Therefore shall a man leave
his father and his mother, and
shall cleave unto his wife: and
they shall be one flesh.

made. And he said unto the wo-
man, ^Yea, hath God said, Ye

2 And the woman said unto the
serpent. We may eat of the fruit
of the trees of the garden :
3 "^But of the fruit of the tree

that it ivas ♦ pleasant to the eyes,

also unto her husband with her;

8 And they heard ''the voice of
the Lord God walking in the gar-
den in the ^cool of the day: and

God amongst the trees of the gar-
den.

Adam, and said unto him. Where

10 And he said, I heard thy voice

because I was naked; and I hid

11 And he said. Who told thee
that thou ivast naked I Hast thou
eaten of the tree, whereof I com-
manded thee that^^thou shouldest

the woman, A\Tiat is this tliat thou
liast done ? And the woman said,
°The serpent beguiled me, and I
did eat.
14 And the Lord God said ^unto
the serpent, Because thou hast
done this, thou art cursed above
all cattle, and above every beast
of the field ; upon thy beliy shalt
thou go, and "dust shalt thou eat
all the days of thy life :
15 And^ I will put enmity be-
tween thee and the woman, and
between "^thy seed and ^her seed;
4t shall bruise thy head, and thou
shalt bruise his heel.
IG Unto the woman he said, I
will greatly multiply thy sorrow
and thy conception; "in sorrow
thou shalt bring forth children;
''and thy desire shall he Ho thy
husband, and he shall ''rule over
thee. /''
17 And unto Adam he said, ^^ Be-
cause thou hast hearkened unto
the voice of thy wife, ^and hast
eaten of the tree, *of which I com-
manded thee, saying, Thou shalt
not eat of it : ^ cursed is the ground
for thy sake ; ''in sorrow shalt thou
eat of it all the days of thy life ;
18 ''Thorns also and thistles shall
it ^ bring forth to thee ; and '^ thou
shalt eat the lierb of the field :
19 'In the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of it
wast thou taken : ^ for dust thou
art, and ''unto dust shalt thou re-
turn.
20 And Adam called his wife's
name ♦ " Eve ; l)ocause she was the
mother of all living.
21 Unto Adam also and to his
wife did the Lord God make coats
of skins, and clothed them.
22 ^ And the Lord God said,
' Behold, the man is become as
one of us, to know good and evil :
and now,^est he put forth his
hand, ''and take also of the tree

24 So he drove out the man : and
he placed â„¢at the east of the gar-

fruit of the groui;id an offering
unto the Lord.
4 And Abel, he also brought of
Hhe firstlings of his ^ flock and of
the fat thereof. And the Lord
had "respect imto Abel and to his
offering :
5 But unto Cain and to his offer-
ing he had not respect. And Cain
was very wroth, ''and his counte-
nance fell.
6 And the Lord said unto Cain,
Whj art thou wroth ? and why is
thy countenance fallen ?
7 If thou doest well, shalt thou
not "be accepted? and if thou
doest not well, sin lieth at the
doorrjmd "unto thee shall he his
desire, and thou shalt rule over
him.
8 And Cain talked with Abel his
brother : and it came to pass, when
they were in the field, that Cain
rose up against Abel his brother,
and "^slew him.
9 •[ And the Lord said unto
Cain, « Where is Abel thy brother!
And he said, "I know not: Am I
my brother's keei)er f
10 And he said. What hast thou
done? the voice of thy brother's
♦ blood ' crieth unto me from the

blood from thy hand.

2 That the sons of God saw the

3 And the Lord said, 'My Spirit

3 And the waters returned from
off the earth * continually : and
after the end *of the hundred and
fifty days the waters were abated.
4 And the ark rested in the sev-
enth month, on the seventeenth
day of the month, upon the mount-
ains of Ararat.
o And the waters * decreased con-
tinually until the tenth month :
in fJie tenth month, on the first day
of the month, were the tops of the
mountains seen.
6 T And it came to pass at the
end of forty days, that Noah opened
^the window of the ark which he
had made :
7 And he sent forth a raven,
which went forth ^to and fro, until
the waters were dried uj) from t)ff
the earth.
8 Also he sent forth a dove from
him, to see if. the waters were
abated from off the face of the
ground.
9 But the dove found no rest for
the sole of her foot, and she re-
turned imto him into the ark ; for
the waters were on the face of the
whole earth. Then he put forth
his hand, and took her, and * pulled
her in unto him into the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven
days ; and again he sent forth the
dove out of the ark.
11 And th(i dove came in to him
in the evening, and, lo, in her
mouth was an olive leaf plucked
off: so Noah knew that the waters
were abated from off the earth.
12 And he stayed yet other seven
days, and sent forth the dove,
which returned not again imto
him any more.
13 ^ And it came to pass in the
six hundredth and first year, in
the first month, the first da^i of
the month, the waters were di-ied
up from off the earth: and Noah
removed the covering -of the arlv,
and looked, and, behold, the face
of the ground was dry.
14 And in the second month, on
i}\Q seven and twentieth day of
the month, was the eartli dried.

AND God blessed Noah and his

'•' Be ' fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth.
2 ''And the fear of you and the
dread of you shall be upon every
beast of the earth, and upon ever}^

4 'But'liesh with the life thereof,
ivliich is the blood thereof, shall ye
not eat.
5 And surely, your blood of your
lives will I require: ^'at the hand
of every beast will I require it,

hand of every ' man's brother will
I require the life of man.
G ''Whoso sheddeth man's blood,
by man shall his blood be shed:
' for in the image of God made he
man. â–
7 And you, ""be ye fruitful, and
multiply; bring forth abundantly
in the earth, and multiply therein.
8 ^ And God spake unto Noah,
and to his sons with him, saying,
9 And I, "behold, I establish "my
covenant with you, and with your
seed after you-;
10 p And with every living creat-
ure that is with you, of the fowl,

11 And "^1 will establish my cov-

24 And Noah awoke from his
wine, and knew what his younger
son had done unto him.
25 And he said, "^Cursed he Ca-

he be unto his brethren.

journeyed "from the east, that they
found a plain in the land of Shi-
nar ; and they dwelt there.
3 And *they said one to another.
Go to, let us make brick, and
' bum them thoroughly. And they
had brick for stone, and slime had
they for mortar.
4 And they said, Go to, let us
build us a city, and a tower,
"whose top may reach unto heav-
en; and let us make us a name.
upon
lest we be scattered abroad

5 *'And the Lord came down to
see the 'city and the tower, which
the children of men builded.
G And the Lord said. Behold,

all ^ one language ; and this they
begin to do : and now nothing
will be restrained from them,
which they have ''imagined to do.
7 Go to, 'let us go down, and
there cx)n found their language,
that they Inay ^not understand

8 So ''the Lord scattered them
abroad from thence ' uijon the face
of all the earth : and they left otf

9 Therefore is the name of it
called "Babel; ''because the Lord
did there confound the language

altar.
ND Abram went up ou\t. of
A^
Egypt, he, and his wife, and
all that he had, and Lot with him,
'' into the south.
2 ^And Abram was very rich in
cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his journeys
•'trom the south even to Beth-el,
unto the place where his tent had
been at the beginning, between
Beih-el and Hai;
4 Unto the ''place of the altar,
which he had made there at the
tirst : and there Abram " called on-
the name of the Lord.
5 1 And Lot also, which went
with Abram, had flocks, and herds,
and tents.
() And ^the land was not able to
bear them, that they might dwell
together: for their substance was
great, so that they could not dwell
together.
7 And there was ^a strife between
the herdmen of Abram's cattle and
the herdmen of Lot's cattle : '' and
the Canaanite and the Perizzite
dwelt then in the land.
8 And Abram said unto Lot, ' Let
there be no strife, I pray thee, be-
tween me and thee, and between
my herdmen and thy herdmen ; for
we l)e t brethren.
^Is not the whole land before
thee ? sei)arate thyself, I pray thee,
from me : 'if thou unit take the left
hand, then I will go to the right;
or if tliou depart to the right hand,
then I will go to the left.
10 And Lot lifted up his eyes,
and beheld all "'the plain of Jor-
dan, that it was well watered every
where, before the Lord "destroyed
Sodom and Gomorrah, "even as the
garden of the Lord, like the land
of Egypt, as thou comest unto
"Zoar.

plain of Jordan ; and Lot journey-
ed east : and they separated them-
selves the one from the other.

tent toward Sodom.

liam, Thou slialt keep my cov-
enant therefore, thoii, and thy seed
after thee in their generations.
10 This is my covenant, which ye
shall keep, betAveen me and you
and thy seed after thee; 'Every
man child among you shall be cu--
cumcised.
11 And ye shall circumcise the
flesh of your foresldn ; and it shall
be 'a token of the covenant be-
twixt me and you.
12 And the that is eight days
old "shall be circumcised among
you, every man child in your gen-
erations, he that is born in the
house, or bought with money of
any stranger, which is not of thy
seed.
13 He that is bom in thy house,
and he that is bought with thy
money, must needs be chcumcised :
and my covenant shall be in your
flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14 And the uncircumcised man
child whose flesh of his foreskin is
not circumcised, that soul ''shall
be cut off from his people ; he hath
broken my covenant.
15 'f And God said unto Abra-
ham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou
shalt not call her name Sarai, but
" Sarah shall her name be.
16 And I will bless her, ''and give
thee a son also of her : yea, I will
bless her, and ^ she shall be a mother
5 of nations; kings of people shall
be of her.
17 Then Abraham fell upon his
face, 'and laughed, and said in his
heart, Shall a child be born unto
him that is a hundi'ed years old I
and shall Sarah, that is ninety
years old, bear ?
18 And Abraham said unto God,
that Ishmael might live before
thee!
19 iVnd God said, ^^ Sarah thy wife
shall bear thee a son indeed ; and
thou shalt call his name Isaac : and
1 will establish my covenant with
him for an everlasting covenant,
and with his seed after him.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have
heard thee : Behold, I have blessed
him, and will make him fruitful,
and ^will multiply him exceed-
ingly; Hwelve x^rinces shall he be-
get, 'and I will make him a great
nation.
21 liut my covenant will I estab-
lish with Isaac, 'which Sarah shall
bear unto thee at this set time in
the next year.
22 And he left off talking with
him, and God went uj) ti'om Abra-
ham.
2o ^ And Abraham took Ishmael
his son, and all that were born in
his house, and all that were bought
with his money, every male among
the men of Abraham's house ; and
circumcised the flesh of their fore-
skin in the selfsame day, as God
had said unto him.
24 And Abraham »'«s ninety years
old and nine, when he was circiun-
cised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25 And Ishmael his son was thir-
teen years old, when he was cir-
cumcised in the flesh of his fore-
skin.
20 In the selfsame day was Abra-
ham circumcised, and Ishmael his
son.
27 And '"all the men of his house,
born in the house, and bought with
money of the stranger, were cir-
cumcised with him.

hast said.
6 And Abraham hastened into the
tent unto Sarah, and said, ^Make
ready quickly three measures of
tine meal, knead it, and make cakes
upon the hearth.
7 And Abraham ran unto the
herd, and fetched a calf tender and
good, and gaTe it unto a young-
man ; and he hasted to dress it.
8 xVnd '' he took butter, and milk,
and the calf which he had dressed,
and set it before them ; and he
stood by them under the tree, and
they did eat.
1) 1 And they said unto him.
Where is Sarah thy wife? And
he said, Behold, ' in the tent.
10 And he said, I ^will certainly
return unto thee ' according to the
time of life; and, lo, °' Sarah thy
wife shall have a son. And Sarah
heard it in the tent door, which ivas
behind him.
11 Now "Abraham and Sarah
iverc old and well stricken in age ;
and it ceased to be with Sarah
"after the manner of women.
12 Therefore Sarah Plaughed with-
in herself, saying, "^ After I am wax-
ed old shall I have i^leasure, my
'lord being old also?
13 And the Lord said unto Abra-
ham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
saying, Shall I of a siu-ety bear a
child, which am old ?
14 ** Is any thing too hard for the
Lord ? * At the time appointed I
will return unto thee, accorchng to
the time of life, and Sarah shall
have a son.
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I
laughed not; for she was afraid.
And he said, Nay ; but thou didst
laugh.
IG 1 And the men rose up from
thence, and looked toward Sodom:
and Abraliam went with them "to
bring tlicni on tlu^ way.
17 And the Loud said, "Shall I
hide from Abraham that

surely become a great and mighty
nation, and all the nations of the
earth shall be "blessed in him ?

19 For I know him, ^'that he will
command his children and his
household after him, and they shall
keep the Avay of the Lord, to do
justice and judgment ; that the
Lord may bring upon Abraham
that which he hath spoken of him.
20 And the Lord said. Because
'the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah
is great, and because their sin is
very grievous,
21 ^ I will go down now, and see
whether they have done altogether
according to the cry of it, which is
come unto me ; and if not, '' I will
know.
22 And the men turned their faces
from thence, '^and went toward
Sodom: but Abraham ''stood yet
before the Lord.
23 T^ And Abraham ''drew near,
and said, 'Wilt thou also destroy
the righteous with the wicked ?
24 sPerad venture there be fifty
righteous within the city: wilt
thou also destroy and not sjiare
the place for the fifty righteous
that are therein ?
25 That be far from thee to do
after this manner, to slay the right-
eous with the wicked; and ''that
the righteous should be as the
Avicked, that be far from thee:
'Shall not the Judge of all the
earth do right ?
2G And the Lord said, '^If I find
in Sodom fifty righteous within the
city, then I will spare all the place
for their sakes.
27 And AIn-aham answered and
said, 'Behold now, I have taken
upon me to speak unto the Lord,
which am ""hut dust and ashes:
28 Peradventure there shall lack
five of the fifty righteous : wilt thou
destroy all the city for lack o/five?
And he said. If I find there forty
and five, I will not destroy it.
20 And he spake unto him yet
again, and said, Peradventure there
sliall be forty found there. And
he said, I will not do it for forty's
sake.

not the Lord be angry, and I will
speak: I*eradventure there shall
thirty be found there. And he

CHAPTER XIX.
1 Lot eviertaineth two angels. 4 The vicions Sodom-
ites are stricken u'ith blindness. 13 Lot is sent for
safety into the mountains. 18 He ohtaineth leave to
go into Zoar. 24 Sodom and Gomorrah are de-
stroyed. 26 Lofs wife is a pillar of salt. 30 Lot
dweileth in a cave. 31 The incestuous original of
Moab and Amnion.
A XD there '' came two angels to
jlJL Sodom at even ; and Lot sat
in the gate of Sodom: and ^Lot
seeing tliem rose up to meet them ;
and he bowed himself with his face
toward the ground ;
2 And lie said. Behold now, my
lords, nurn in, I pray you, into
â– your servant's house, and tarry all
night, and ''wash your feet, and ye
shall rise up early, and go on yoiu^
ways. And they said, ^Xay; but
we will abide in the street all night.
3 And he pressed upon them
greatly ; and they tm^ned in unto
him, and entered into his house;
and he made them a feast, and
did bake unleavened bread, and
they thd eat.
4 ^ But before they lay down,
the men of the citv, even the men
of Sodom, compassed the house
round, both old and young, all
the people from every quarter :
5 ^And they called unto Lot, and
said unto him. Where are the men
which came in to thee fliis night ?
^ bring them out unto us, that we
' may know them.
G And ''Lot went out at the door
unto them, and shut the door after
him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren,
do not so wickedly.
8 ^ Behold now, I have two
daughters which have not known
man ; let mc^, I pray you, bring
theiii out unto you, and do ye to
them as is good in your eyes :
only unto these men do nothing ;
'"lor therefore came they under
the shadow of my roof.
And they said. Stand back.
And they said again, This one
fellow "came in to sojourn, "and
he will needs be a judge: now
will we deal worse with thee than
with them. And they pressed sore
upon the man, even Lot, and came
near to break the door.
10 But the men i)ut forth their
hand, and pulled Lot into the
house to them, and shut to the
door.
11 And they smote the men
'' that irere at the door of the house
with blindness, both small and
great : so tliat they wearied them-
selves to lind the door.
12 n[ And the men said unto Lot,
Hast thou here any besides ? son
in law, and thy sons, and thy
daughters, and whatsoever thou
hast in the city, *! bring tliem out
of this place :
13 For we will destroy this i)lace,
because the 'cry of them is waxen
great before the face of the Lord ;
and Hhe Lord hath sent us to
destroy it.
14 And Lot went out, and spake
unto his sons in law, ' which mar-
ried his daughters, and said, "Up,
get you out of this place ; for the
Lord will destroy this city. ""But
he seemed as one that mocked
unto his sons in law.
15 ^ And when the morning
arose, then the angels hastened
Lot, saying, ^ Arise, take thy wife,
and thy two daughters, which ^ are
here; lest thou be consumed in
the I' iniquity of the city.
16 And while he lingered, the
men laid hold uj)on his tiand, and
\\\)o\\ the hand of his wife, and
upon the hand of his two daugh-
ters; nhe Lord being merciful
unto him : " and they brought him
forth, and set hiiu without the
city.

they had brought them forth
abroad, that he said, ^Escape for
thy hfe; 4ook not behind thee,
neither stay thou in all the plain ;
escape to the mountain, lest thou
be consumed.
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh,
^ not so, my Lord :
19 Behold now, thy servant hath
found grace in thy sight, and thou
hast magnitied thy mercy, which
thou hast shewed unto me in sav-
ing my life ; and I cannot escape
to the mountain, lest some evil
take me, and I die :
20 Behold now, this city is near
to flee unto, and it is a little one :
O, let me escape thither, {is it not
a little one!) and my soul shall
live.
21 And he s(\id unto him, See,
^I have accepted Hliee concerning
this thing also, that I will not
overthrow this city, for the which
thou hast spoken.

which grew upon the ground.

of the overthrow, when he over-

dwelt.
30 \ And Lot went up out of
Zoar, and "dwelt in the moimtain,
and his two daughters with him;
for he feared to dwell in Zoar : and
he dwelt in a cave, he and his tv/o
daughters.
31 And the firstborn said unto
the younger. Our father is old, and
there is not a man in the earth ''to
come in unto us after the manner
of all the earth :
32 Come, let us make our father
drink wine, and we will lie with
him, that we 'imay preserve seed

33 And they made their father

firstborn went in, and lay with her
father ; and he perceived not Avhen

2 And Abraliam said of Sarali
his wife, '^ISlie is my sister: and
Abimelecli king of Gerar sent, and
Hook Sarah.
3 But "^God came to Abimelech
^in a, dream by night, and said to
him, ''Behold, thou art hut a chnid
man, for the woman whicli thou
hast taken ; for she is ^ a man's
wife.
4 But Abimelech had not come
near her : and he said. Lord, * wilt
thou slay also a righteous nation 1
5 Said he not unto me. She is- my
sister? and she, even she herself
said. He is my brother: '4n tlie
"integrity of my heart and inno-
ceiicy of my hands have I done
this.
6 And God said unto him in a
dream, Yea, I know that thou didst
this in the integrity of tliy heart ;
for ' I also withheld thee from sin-
ning '" against me : therefore suf-
fered I thee not to touch her.
7 Now therefore restore the man
Ms 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.
8 Therefore 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.
9 Then Abimelech called Abra-
ham, and said unto him. What
hast thou done unto lis ? and what
have I oftended thee, ^that thou
hast brought on me and on my
kingdom a great sin? thou hast
done deeds unto me Hhat ought
not to be done.
10 And Abimelech said unto
Abraham, What sawest thou, that
thou hast done this thing ?
11 And Abraham said. Because
I thought, Sm-ely 'the fear of God
is not in this i^lace ; and ^ they will
slay me for my wife's sake.
12 And yet indeed "s/ie is my
sister; she is the daughter of my
father, but not the daughter of my
mother ; and she became my wife.
13 And 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
l)lace whither we shall come, ^' say
of me. He is my brother.
14 And Abimelech 'took sheei^,
and oxen, and menservants, and
and ga^e ,them
and restored him
womenservants,
unto Abraham,
Sarah his wife.
15 .Vnd Abimelech said. Behold,
â– ' my land is before thee : dwell
^ where it x)leaseth thee.
1() And unto Sarah he said. Be-
hold, I have given ^ thy brother a
thousand ji/ece.s' 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.
17 •[ So Abraham Sprayed unto
God : and God healed Abimelech,
and his wife, and his maidservants;
and they bare children.
18 For the Lord ^ had fast closed
up all the wombs of .the house
of Abimelech, because of Sarah,
Abraham's wife.

XX- he had said, and the Lord
did unto Sarah ^ as he had spoken.
2 For Sarah " conceived, and bare
Abraham a son in his old age, '• at
the set time of which God had

3 And Abraham called the name
of his son that was born unto him,
whom Sarah bare to him, " Isaac.

years old, when his son Isaac was

made me to laugh, so that all that

should have given children suck ?
' for I have borne Mm a son in his

8 And tlie cliild grew, and was
weaned : and Abraham made a
great feast the same day that Isaac
was weaned.
9 1 And Sarah saw the son of
Hagar "' the Egyptian, ° which she
had borne unto Abraham, ° mock-
ing-
10 Wherefore she said unto Abra-
ham, ^Gast out this bondwoman
and her son: for the son of this
bondwoman shall not be heir with
my son, even with Isaac.
11 And the thing was very griev-
ous in Abraham's sight '^ because
of his son.
12-1^ A^d God said unto Abra-
ham, Let it not be grievous in thy
sight because of the lad, and be-
cause of thy bondwoman; in all
that Sarah hath said unto thee,
hearken unto her voice ; for ^ in
Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13 And also of the son of the
bondwoman will I make ^a nation,
because he is thy seed.
14 And Abraham rose up early
in the morning, and took bread,
and a bottle of water, and gave it
unto Hagar, i)utting it on her
shoulder, and the cliild, and ' sent
her away: and she departed, and
wandered in the wilderness of Beer-
sheba.
15 And the water was spent in
the bottle, and she cast the child
under one of the shrubs.
16 And she went, and sat her
down over against him a good way
off, as it were a bowshot : for she
said. Let me not see the death of
the child. And she sat over
against hiiii^ and lifted up her voice,
and wei)t.
1 7 And " God heard the voice of
tlie lad ; and the angel of God
called to Hagar out of heaven, and
said unto her, AVhat aileth thee, Ha-
gar ? fear not ; for God hath heard
t\m voice of the lad where he is.
18 Arise, lift up the lad, and
hold him in thine hand;, for "* I
will make him a gi'cat nation.
II) And "God ojx^ned her eyes,
and she saw a well of water; and
she went, and liUed Ihe bottle with
water, and gave the lad diiuk.
26
me, and to the land wherein
20 And God ^was with the lad;
and he gi-ew, and dwelt in the wil-
derness, 'and became an archer.
21 And he dwelt in the wilder-
ness of Paran : and his mother
^took him a wife out of the land
of Egypt.
22 1 And 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 :
23 I^ow therefore ^ swear imto me
here bv God, Uhat thou wilt not
deal falsely with me, nor with my
son, nor with my son's son : })ut
according to the kindness that I
have done unto thee, thou shalt do
unto
thou hast sojourned.
24 And Abraham said, I will
swear.
25 And Abraham reproved Abim-
elech because of a well of water,
which Abimelech's servants '^had
violently taken away.
26 And Abimelech said, I wot not
who hath done this thing : neither
didst thou tell me, neither yet
heard I of it, but to day.
27 And Abraham took sheep and
oxen, and gave them unto Abime-
lech; and both of them *^made a
covenant.
28 And Abraham set seven ewe
lambs of the flock bv themselves.
29 And Al)imelecli said unto
Abraham, °What7)?efni these seven
ewe lambs which thou hast set by
themselves ?
30 And he said. For these seven
ewe lambs shalt thou take of my
hand, that ^ they maj^ be a witness
unto me, that I have digged this
well.
31 Wherefore he ' called that place
"Beer-sheba; because there they
sware both of them.
32 Thus they made a covenant at
Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose
up, and Phichol the chief captain
of his host, and they returned into
the land of the Philistines.
33 1 And Ahraham planted a
"grove in Beer-sheba, and ''called
tliere on the name of the Lokd,
' the everlasting God.

CHAPTER XXII.
1 Abraham is temj^ted to offer haac. 'ii lie gil'dh proof
of las fiith and obedience. 11 2'lie auycl staijdli
him. 13 Isaac is excluxiixjed with a ram. 14 'I'lie
place is called Jeliovahjire'h. 1.5 Abra/ncm is hle.s.'u'd
ufjain. 20 The generation of Nahor vnto Ikbekah.
A ND it came to pass after these
J\. things, that 'God did tempt
Abraham, and said unto him, Abra-
ham : and he said, ^ Behold, here I
am.
2 And he said, Take now thy son,
''thine only son Isaac, whom thou
lovest, and get thee 'into the lan<l
of Moriali ; and oifer him there for
a burnt offering upon one of the
mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 l^And 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 offer-
ing, and rose up, and went unto
the place of Avhich God had told him.
4 Then on the third day Abraham
lifted up his eyes, and saw the
place afar off'.
5 And Abraham said unto his
young men. Abide ye here with
the ass ; and I and the lad will go
yonder and worship, and come
again to you.
And 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 the}'*
went both of them together.
7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham
his father, and said. My father:
and he said, ^Here am I, n\j son.
And he said. Behold the fke and
the wood : but where is the " lamb
for a burnt offering ?
8 And Abraham said, My son,
God will i)rovide himself a lamb
for a burnt offering : so they went
both of them together.
9 And they came to the jjlace
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.
10 And Abraham stretched forth
his hand, and took the knife to slay
his son.
11 And the Angel of the Lord
called unto him out of heaven, and
said, Abraham, Abraham: and he
said, Here am I.
12 And he said, '^Lay not thine
hand upon the lad, neither do
thou any thing unto him: for
^'now I know that thou fearest
God, seeing thou hast not with-
held thy son, thine only son, fi-om
me.
13 And Abraham lifted up his
eyes, and looked, and behold
behind him a ram caught in a
thicket by his hortis: and Abra-
ham went and took the ram, and
offered him up for a biu'ut offering
in the stead of his son.
14 And Abraham called the
name of that place " Jehovah-jireh:
as it is said to this day, In the
mount of the LoED it shall be
seen.
15 ^ And the Angel of the Lord
called unto Abraham out of heav-
en the second time,
10 And said, '' By myself have I
sworn, saith the Lord, for because
thou hast done this thing, and
hast not withheld thy son, thine
only son,,
17 That in blessing I will bless
thee, and in multii)lying 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 ;
18 "And in thy seed shall all the
nations of the earth be blessed;
"because thou hast obeyed my
voice.
19 So Abraham retm-ned unto
his young men, and they rose
up and went together to I'Beer-
sheba; and Abraham dwelt at
Beer-sheba.
20 1 And it came to pass after
these things, that it was told
Abraham, saying. Behold, ''Mil-
cali, she hath also borne children
unto thy brother Nahor ;
21 'Huz his firstborn, and Buz
his brother, and Kemuel the father
^ of Aram,
22 And Ohesed, and Hazo, and
Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

1 The age and death of Sarah. 3 The purchase of

AND Sarah was a hundred and
. seven and twenty years old :
these w'ere the years of the life of
Sarah.
2 And Sarah died in ""Kirjath-
arba ; the same is ^ Hebron in the
land of Canaan: and Abraham
came to mourn for Sarah, and to
weep for her.
3 *l And Abraham stood up from
before his dead, and spake unto
the sons of Heth, saying,
4 'I am a stranger and a so-
journer with you: ""give me a
possession of a buryingplace with
you, that I may bury my dead out
of my sight.
5 And the children of Heth an-
swered Abraham, saying unto him,
C Hear us, my lord: thou art t'a
mighty prince among us: in the
choice of our sepulchres bury thy
dead; none jf us shall withhold
from thee his sepulchre, but that
thou mayest bury thy dead.
7 And Abraham stood up, and
bowed himself to the people of the
land, even to the children of Heth.
8 And he communed with them,
saying. If it be your mind that 1
should bury my dead out of my
sight, hear me, and entreat for me
to Ephron the son of Zohar,
9 That he may give me the cave
of Machi)elah, which he hath,
which is in the end of his field;
for ♦ as much money as it is worth
he shall give it me for a i)osses-
sion of a buryingplace amongst
you.
10 And Ephron dwelt among the
chihlren of Heth: and Ejjhron the
Hittite answered Abraham in the
♦au(hence of the children of Iletli,
ei^en of all that "^wc^nt in at the
gate of his city, saying,
11 ^Nay, my lord, hear me: the
28
field give I thee, and the cave that
is therein, I give it thee ; in the
presence of the sons of my people
give I it thee : bury thy dead.
12 And Abraham bowed down
himself before the people of the
land.
13 And he spake unto Ephron
in the audience of the peoi^le of
the land, saying. But if thou ivilt
give it, I pray thee, hear me: I
will give thee money for the field ;
take it of me, and I will bury my
dead there.
14 And Ephron answered Abra-
ham, saying unto him,
15 My lord, hearken unto me:
the land is tvorth foiu" hundred
^ shekels of silver ; what is that be-
twixt me and thee ? bury therefore
thy dead.
IG And Abraham hearkened unto
Ei)hron ; and Abraham ' weighed
to Ephron the silver, which he had
named in the audience of the sons
of Heth, four hundred shekels of
silver, current money with the mer-
chant.
17 1 And Hhe field of Ephron,
which was in Machpelah, which
luas before Mamre, the field, and
the cave which was therein, and
all the trees that ivere in the field,
thiit were in all the borders round
about, Avere made sure
18 Unto Abraham for a posses-
fiion in the presence of the children
of Heth, before all that went in at
the gate of his city.
19 And after this, Abraham bur-
ied Sarah his wife in the cave of
the field of Machpelah before Mam-
re : the same is Hebron in the land
of Canaan.
20 And the field, and the cave
that is therein, ' were made sm"e
unto Abraham for a possession of a
buryingplace by the sons of Heth.

and the God of the earth, that
f-'thou shalt not take a wife unto
my son of the daughters of the
Canaanites, among whom I dwell :
4 ''But thou shalt go 'unto my
country, and to my kin(hed, and
take a wife unto my son Isaac.
5 And the servant said unto him,
Peradventure the woman will not
be willing to follow me unto this
land : must I needs bring thy son
again unto the land from Avhence
thou earnest ?
6 And Abraham said unto him,
Beware thou that thou bring not
my son thither again.
7 1 The LoED 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 ; â„¢ he shall send his angel be-
fore thee, and thou shalt take a
wife unto my son from thence.
8 And if the woman will not be
willing to follow thee, then " thou
shalt be clear from this my oath :
only bring not my son thither
again.
9 And the servant put his hand
under the thigh of Abraham his
master, and sware to him concern-
ing that matter.
10 1^ And the servant took ten
camels of the camels of his master,
and departed; ''Hfor all the goods
of his master ivere in his hand : and
he arose, and went to Mesopota-
mia, unto "the city of Nahor.
11 And he made his camels to
kneel down without the city by a
well of water at the time of the
evening, even the time ^''that wo-
men go out to draw ivater.
12 And he said, ' O Lord God of
my master Abraham, I pray thee,
''send me good speed this day, and
shew kindness unto my master*
Abraham,
13 Behold, 'I stand here by the
well of water; and "the daughters
of the men of the city come out to
draw water :
14 And let it come to pass, that
the damsel to whom I shall say,
Let down thy i)itclier, I pray thee,
that I may drink; and she shall
say. Drink, and I will give thy cam-
els di'ink also : let the same he she
that thou hast appointed for thy
servant Isaac; and ''thereby shall
I know that thou hast shewed kind-
ness unto my master.
15 ^ And it came to pass, before
he had done speaking, that, behold,
Eebekah came out, who was born
to Bethuel, son of ''Milcah, the wife
of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with
her pitcher upon her shoulder.
IC) And the damsel ^ tvas ^very
fair to look upon, a virgin, neither
had any man known her : and she
went down to the well, and hlled
her ijitcher, and came up.
17 And the servant ran to meet
her, and said. Let me, I pray thee,
drink a little water of thy pitcher.
18 ^And she said. Drink, my
lord : and she hasted, and let
down her pitcher upon her hand,
and gave him think.
19 And when she had done giv-
ing him drink, she said, I will
ch"aw water for thy camels also,
until they have done drinking.
20 And she hasted, and emptied
her i)itclier into the trough, and
ran again unto the well to draw
water, and drew for all his camels.
21 And the man wondering at
her held his peace, to wit whether
^the Lord had made his journey
prosperous or not.
22 And it came to pass, as the
camels had done (binking, that
the man took a golden ^"earring
of half a shekel weight, and two
bracelets for her hands of ten
shekels weight of gold ;
23 And said. Whose daughter

there room in thy father's house
for us to lodge in ?

8 Then Abraham gave up the
ghost, and ^ died in a good old age,
an old man, and full of years ; and
'^Avas gathered to his people.

mael bmied him in the cave of

the son of Zohar the Hittite, which
is before Mamre ;

purchased of the sons of Heth:

Sarah his wife.
11 ^ And it came to pass after
the death of Abraham, that God
blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac
dwelt by the ''well Lahai-roi.

tions of Ishmael, Abraham's son,
'whom Hagar the Egyptian, vSa-
rah's handmaid, bare unto Abra-
ham :

ty and seven years : and °he gave
uj) the ghost and died, and was
gathered unto his people.

unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as
thou goest toward Assyria: and
he * died " in the presence of all liis

'^Al)raham begat Isaac:
20 And Isaac was forty years old
when he took Kebekah to wife,
"tlie daughter of Betluu'l the Syr-
ian of Padan-aram, 'the sister to
Laban the Syrian.

21 And Isaac entreated the Lord
for his wife,* because she was bar-
ren : " and the Loed was entreated
of him, and '' Eebekah his wife con-
ceived.
22 And the chi](ben struggled to-
gether within her; and she said.
If it he so, why am I thus ? ''And
she went to inquire of the Lord.
23 And the Lord said unto her,
^'Two nations are in thy womb,
and two manner of jjeople shall be
separated from thy bowels; and
^the one people shall be stronger
than the other ijeojile; and ''the
elder vshall serve the younger.
24 "[ And when her days to be de-
hvered were fulfilled, behold, there
were twins in her womb.
25 And the first came out red,
^ all over like a hairy garment ; and
they called his name Esau.
20 And after that came his broth-
er out, and ''his hand took hold on
Esau's heel; and ''his name was
called Jacob : and Isaac tvas three-
score years old when she bare
them.
27 And the boys grew : and Esau
was ''a cunning hunter, a man of
the field ; and Jacob u-as ^ a i)lain
man, *^' dwelling in tents.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because
t he did '' eat of his venison : ' but
Eebekah loved Jacob.
29 ^ And Jacob sod pottage : and
Esau came from the field, and he
was faint :
30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed
me, I pray thee, ^with that same
red imttafje ; for I am faint : there-
fore was his name called "Edom.
31 And Jacob said. Sell me this
day thy birthi-ight.
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am
^at the point to die: and what
profit shall this birthright do to
me?
33 And Jacob said. Swear to me
this day ; and he swarc unto him :
and ''he sold his birthright unto
Jacob.
34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread
and ])ottage of lentiles; and 'he
did eat and drink, and rose up, and
went his way. Thus Esau despised

A XD there was a famine in the
jLjL. land, besides ' the first faniiiu^
tliat was in the days of Abraliani.
And Isaac went unto ^Abimelech
king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
2 And the Lord appeared unto
him, and said, Go not down into
Egypt; dwell in Hhe land which I
shall tell thee of.
3 ''Sojourn in this land, and ""I
will be with thee, and ^will bless
thee ; for unto thee, and unto thy
seed, '^'I will give all these coun-
tries, and I will perform '' the oath
which I sware unto Abraham thy
father ;
4 And 'I will make thy seed to
multiply as the stars of heaven,
and will give unto thy seed all
these countries; ^'and in thy seed
shall all the nations of the earth
be blessed ;
5 ' Because that Abraham obeyed
my voice, and kept my charge, my
commandments, my statutes, and
my laws.
6 *j[ And Isaac dwelt in Gerar.
7 And the men of the place asked
him of his wife; and ''he said. She
is my sister : for " he feared to say.
She is my wife; lest, said he, the
men of the i)lace should kill me
for Eebekah; because she ''ivas fair
to look upon.
8 And it came to pass, when he
had been there a long time, that
Abimelech king of the Philistines
looked out at a window, and saw,
and, behold, Isaac was sporting
with Eebekah his wife.
9 And Abimelech called Isaac,
and said, Behok., of a surety she is
thy wife : and how saidst thou, She
is my sister? And Isaac said unto
him. Because I said, Lest I die for
her.
10 And Abimelech said, What is
this thou hast done unto us ? one
of the people might lightly have
lain with thy wife, and ^thou
shouldest have brought guiltiness
upon us.
11 And Abimelech charged all his
people, saying. He that ''toucheth
this man or his wife shall surely be
put to death,
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land,
and * received in the same year "^a
hundredfold: andtheLoED 'blessed
him.
13 And the man 'waxed great,
and hvent forward, and grew until
he became very great :
14 For he had possession of flocks,
and possession of herds, and great
store of I' servants : and the I*hilis-
tines "envied him.
15 For all the wells '"which his
father's servants had digged in the
days of Abraham his father, the
Philistines had stopped them, and
tilled them with earth.
IG And Abimelech said unto Isaac,
Go from us ; for '^ thou art much
mightier than we.
17 ^ And Isaac departed thence,
and pitched his tent in the valley
of Gerar, and dwelt there.
18 And Isaac digged again the
wells of water, which they had
digged in the days of Abraham his
father ; for the Philistines had
stopped them after the death of
Abraham : ^and he called their
names after the names by which
his father had called them.
19 And Isaac's servants digged in
the valley, and found there a weU
of ^springing water.
20 And the herdmen of Gerar
'did strive with Isaac's herdmen,
saying, The water is ours : and he
called the name of the well " Esek ;
because they strove with him.
21 And they digged another
well, and strove for that also : and
he called the name of it " Sitnah.
22. And he removed from thence,
and digged another well ; and for
that they strove not : and he call-
ed* the name of it "Eehoboth; and
he said. For now the Lord hath
made room for us, and we shall
=" be fruitful in the land.
23 And he went up from thence
to Beer-sheba.

him the same night, and said, ''I

25 And he ''builded an altar
there, and ^called upon the name
of the Lord, and pitched his tent
there: and there Isaac's servants
digged a well.
26 ^ Then Abimelech went to
him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath
one of his friends, ^and Phichol
the chief captain of his army.
27 And Isaac said unto them,
Wherefore come ye to me, seeing
^ye hate me, and have 'sent me
away from you 1
28 And they said, *We saw cer-
tainly that the Lord ^was with
thee : and we said. Let there be
now an oath betwixt us, even be-
twixt us and thee, and let us make
a covenant with thee ;
29 ^ That thou wilt do us no hurt,
as we have not touched thee, and
as we have done unto thee noth-
ing but good, and have sent thee

and they did eat and drink.
31 And they rose up betimes in
the morning, and "sware one to
another: and Isaac sent them
away, and they departed from him
in peace.
32 And it came to pass the same
day, that Isaac's servants came,
and told him concerning the well
which they had digged, and said
unto him. We have found water.
33 And he called it "Shebah:

AND it came to pass, that when
. Isaac was old, and "his eyes
were dim, so that he could not see,
he called Esau his eldest son, and
said unto him. My son: and he
said unto him. Behold, here am I.
2 And he said, Behold now, I am
old, I ^know not the day of my
death :
3 ""Now therefore take, I pray
thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and
thy bow, and go out to the field,
and t take me some venison ;
4 And make me savoury meat,
such as I love, and bring it to me,
that I may eat ; that my soul '' may
bless thee before I die.
5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac
spake to Esau his son. And Esau
went to the field to hunt for veni-
souj and to bring it.
6 ^ And Eebekah spake unto
Jacob her son, saying. Behold, I
heard thy father speak unto Esau
thy brother, saying,
7 Bring me venison, and make
me savoury meat, that I may eat,
and bless thee before the Lord
before my death.
8 Now therefore, my son, ^obey
my voice according to that which
I command thee.
9 Go now to the flock, and fetch
me from thence two good kids of
the goats; and I will make them
•^ savoury meat for thy father, such
as he loveth :
10 And thou shalt bring it to thy
father, that he may eat, and that
he ^'may bless thee befoie his death.
11 And Jacob said to Rebekah
his mother. Behold, ''Esau my
brother is a hairy man, and I am a
smooth man :
12 My father perad venture will
' feel me, and I shall seem to him
as a deceiver; and I shall bring ""a
curse u])on me, and not a blessing.
13 And his mother said unto him,
' Upon me he thy curse, my son :
only ob(3y my voice, and go fetch
me them.
14 And he went, and fetched, and
brought them to his mother: and

and put them upon Jacob her
younger son :
16 And she put the skins of the
kids of the goats upon his hands,
and upon the smooth of his neck :
17 And she gave the savoury
meat and the bread, which she had
prepared, into the hand of her son
Jacob.
18 ^[ And he came unto his father,
auB said, My father : and he said,
Here am I ; wlio art thou, my son I
19 And Jacob said unto his father,
I am Esau thy firstborn ; I have
done according as thou badest me :
arise, I pray tliee, sit and eat of my
venison, °that thy soul may bless
me.
20 And Isaae said unto his son.
How is it that thou hast found it
so quickly, my son ? And he said.
Because the Lord thy God brought
it t to me.
21 And Isaac said unto Jacob,
Oome near, I pray thee, that I
Pmay feel thee, my son, whether
thou be my very son Esau or not.
22 And Jacob went near unto
Isaac his father ; and he felt him,
and said. The voice is Jacob's
voice, but the hands are the hands
of Esau.
23 And he discerned him not, be-
cause '^ his hands were hairy, as his
brother Esau's hands : so he blessed
him.
24 And he said. Art thou my very
son Esau I And he said, I am.
25 And he said. Bring it near to
me, and I will eat of my son's veni-
son, "^that my soul may bless thee.
And he brought it near to him, and
he did eat : and he brought him
wine, and he cbank.
20 And his father Isaac said unto
him. Come near now, and kiss me,
my son.
27 And he came near, and kissed
him : and he smelled the smell of
his raiment, and blessed him, and
said, See, 'the smell of my son is
as the smell of a field which the
Lord hath blessed :
28 Therefore 'God give thee of
"the dew of heaven, and "^the fat-
ness of the earth, and ''plenty of
corn and wine:
29 ^Let people serve thee, and
nations bow down to thee : be lord
over thy brethren, and 'let thy
mother's sons bow down to thee:
•'cursed be every one that curseth
thee, and blessed be he that bless-
etli thee.
30 ^ And it came to pass, as soon
as Isaac had made an end of bless-
ing Jacob, and Jacob was yet
scarce gone out fi'om the presence
of Isaac his father, that l^lsau his
brother came in from his hunt-
ing.
3i And he also had made savoury
m^at, and brought it unto his fa-
ther, and said unto his father. Let
my father arise, and ""eat of his
son's venison, that thy soul may
bless me. •
32 And Isaac his father said unto
him. Who art thou I And he said,
I am thy son, thy firstborn, Esau.
33 And Isaac Ureml)led very ex-
ceedingly, and said. Who? where
is he that hath + taken venison, and
brought it me, and I have eaten of
all before thou earnest, and have
blessed him 1 yea, "and he shall be
blessed.
34 And when Esau heard the
words of liis father, ''he cried with
a great and exceeding bitter cry,
and said unto his father. Bless me,
even me also, O my father.
35 And he said, Thy brother came
with subtilty, and hath taken away
thy blessing.
36 And he said, * Is not he rightly
named "Jacob? for he hath sup-
I)lanted me these two times: Hie
took away my birthright ; and, be-
hold, now he hath taken away my
blessing. And he said. Hast thou
not reserved a blessing for me f
37 And Isaac answered and said
unto Esau, ^ Behold, I have made
him thy lord, and all his brethren
have I given to him for servants ;
and ^with com and wine have I
"sustained him: and what shall I
do now unto thee, my son ?
38 And Esau said unto his father,
Hast thou but one blessing, my
father? bless me, even me also, O

1 Jacob conieth to the well of Jlaran. 9 He taketh ac-
quaintance of Rachel. 13 Laban entertameth him.
18 Jacob covenanteth for Jiachcl. 23 He is deceived
with Leah. 28 He marrieth aho Bachel, and serv-
ethfor her seven yearn more. 33 Leah beareih Reu-
ben, 33 Simeon, 34 Levi, 35 and Jiidah.
THEN Jacob ♦ went on his jour-
ney, "^ and came into the land
of the ♦ people of the east.
2 And he looked, and behold a
well in the field, and, lo, there were
three flocks of sheep lying by it;
for out of that well they watered
the flocks: and a great stone was
upon the well's mouth.
3 And thither were all the flocks
gathered: and they rolled the stone
from the well's mouth, and watered
the slieej), and put the stone again
upon the well's mouth in his i)lace.
4 And Jacob said unto them, My
brethren, whence Jje ye ? And they
said. Of J hu'an are we.
5 And he said unto them. Know
ye Laban the son of Nahor i And
they said, We know Mm.
And he said unto them, ♦'' J.s he
well ? And they said. He is well :
and, behold, Eachel his daughter
Cometh with the sheep.
7 And he said, Lo, Ht is yet high
day, neither is it time that the cat-
tle should be gathered together:
water ye the sheep, and go and
feed them..
8 And they said. We cannot, un-
til all the flocks be gathered to-
gether, and till they roll the stone
from the well's mouth; then we
water the sheep.
9 ^ And while he yet spake with
them, '^Kachel came with her fa-
ther's sheep : for she kept them.
10 And it came to i>ass, when
Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of
Laban his mother's brother, and
the sheep of Laban his mother's
brother, that Jacob went near, and
''rolled the stone from the well's
mouth, and watered the flock of
Laban his mother's brother.
11 And Jacob '^kissed Rachel, and
lifted up his voice, and wept.
12 And Jacob told Rachel that
he tvas '"her father's brother, and
that he was Rebekah's son: ^'aud
she ran and told her father.
13 And it came to pass, when La-
ban heard the * tidings of Jacob his
sister's son, that ''he ran to meet
him, and embraced him, and kissed
him, and brought him to his house.
And he told Laban all these things.
14 And Laban said to him, ' Sure-
ly thou art my bone and my flesh.
And he abode with him ♦ the space
of a month.

Leah, and the name of the young-
er teas Eachel.
17 Leah was tender eyed; but
Eachel was beautiful and well fa-
voured.
18 And Jacob loved Eachel; and
said, ''I will serve thee seven years
for Eachel thy younger daughter.
19 And Laban said. It is blotter
that I give her to thee, than that I
should give her to another man:
abide with me.
20 And Jacob ' served seven years
for Eachel ; and they seemed unto
him hut a few days, for the love he
had to her.
21 ^ And Jacob said unto Laban,
Give me my wife, for my days are
fulfilled, that I may '" go in unto her.
22 And Laban gathered together
all the men of the place, and
"made a feast.
23 And it came to pass in the
evening, that he took Leah his
daughter, and brought her to him ;
and he went in unto her.
24 And Laban gave unto his
daughter Leah Zilpah his maid for
a handmaid.
25 And it came to x>ass, that in
the morning, behold, it was Leah :
and he said to Laban, What is this
thou hast done unto me ? did not I
serve with thee for Eachel ? where-
fore then hast thou beguiled me ?
26 And Laban said, It must not
be so done in our ^ country, to give
the younger before the firstborn.
27 "Fulfil her Aveek, and we will
give thee this also for the service
which thou shalt serve with me yet
seven other years.
28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled
her week : and he gave liiin Eachel
his daughter to wife also.
29 And Laban gave to Eachc^l his
daughter Bilhah his handmaid to
be her maid.
30 And lie went in also unto Ea-
chel, and he 'ioved also Eachel
more than Leah, and served with
him '' yet seven other yc^ars.

11 1[ And Eenben went in the
days of wheat harvest, and found
mandrakes in the held, and brought
them unto his mother Leah. Then
Eachel said to Leah, " Give me, I
pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.
15 And she said unto her, "Is it
a small matter that thou hast taken
my husband I 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.
IG And 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
mantbakes. And he lay with her
that night.
17 And God hearkened unto Leah,
and she conceived, and bare Jacob
the fifth son.
18 And Leah said, God hath given
me my hire, because I have given
my maiden to my husband: and
she called his name " Issachar.
19 And Leah conceived again,
and bare Jacob the sixth son.
20 And Leah said, God hath en-

21 And afterwards she bt^re a

24 And she called his name " Jo-
seph; and said, ^The Lokd shall
add to me another son.
25 1^ And it came to pass, when
Rachel had borne Joseph, that
Jacob said unto Laban, " Send me
away, that 1 may go unto '"'mine
own place, and to my country.
20 Give me my wives and my
children, ^ for whom I have served

35 And he removed that day the
he goats that were ringstreaked
and sj)otted, and all the she goats
that were speckled and spotted,
and every one that had some white
in it, and all the brown among the
sheep, and gave them into the hand
of his sons.
36 And he set three days' jonrney
betwixt himself and Jacob: and
Jacob fed the rest of Laban's
flocks.
37 T^ And ^ Jacob took him rods
of green poplar, and of the hazel
and chesnut tree; and pilled white
streaks in them, and made the white
appear which tvas in the rods.
38 And he set the rods which he
had pilled before the flocks in the
gutters in the watering troughs
when the flocks came to diink,
that they should conceive when
they came to diink.
39 And the flocks conceived be-
fore the rods, and brought forth
cattle ringstreaked, speckled, and
spotted.
40 And Jacob did separate the
lambs, ifnd set the faces of the
flocks toward the ringstreaked, and
all the brown in the flock of Laban ;
and he put his own flocks by them-
selves, and j)ut them not unto La-
ban's cattle.
41 And it came to pass, whenso-
ever the stronger cattle did con-
ceive, that Jacob laid the rods be-
fore the eyes of the cattle in the
gutters, that they might conceive
among the rods.
42 But when the cattle were fee-
ble, he i)ut them not in : so the fee-
bler were Laban's, and the stronger
Jacob's.
43 And the man ^increased ex-
ceedingly, and 'had much cattle,
and maidservants, and menserv-
ants, and camels, and asses.

40
I and of that which teas om' father's
hath he gotten all this "" glory.
2 And Jacob beheld Hhe coun-

ivas not Howard him ^as before.
3 And the Lord said unto Jacob,
''Eeturn unto the land of thy fa-
thers, and to thy kindred ; and I
will be with thee.
4 And Jacob sent and called Ea-
chel aijd Leah to the field unto his
flock,
5 And said unto them, ^ I see your
father's countenance, that it is not
toward me as before ; but the God
of my father 4iath been with me.
6 And ^'ye know that with all my
power I have served your father.
7 And your father hath deceived
me, and ''changed my wages 'ten
times; but God ''sutt'ered him not
to hurt me.
8 If he said thus, ' The speckled
shall be thy wages; then all the
cattle bare speckled : and if he said
thus. The ringstreaked shall be thy
hire ; then bare all the cattle ring-
streaked.
9 Thus God hath "taken away
the cattle of your father, and given
them to me.
10 And it came to pass at the
time that the cattle conceived, that
I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in

which leaped upon the cattle ivere
ringstreaked, speckled, and griz-

11 And "the angel of God spake

15 Are we not counted of him

IG For 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.
17 1 Then Jacob rose up, and set
his sons and his wives upon cam-
els;
18 And he carried away all his
cattle, and all his goods which he
had gotten, the cattle of his get-
ting, which he had gotten in Pa-
dan-aram, for to go to Isaac his
father in the land of Canaan.
' 19 And Laban went to shear his
sheep : and Eachel had stolen the
ii4mages that ivere her father's.
20 And Jacob stole away hm-
awares to Laban the Syrian, in
that he told him not that he fled.
21 So he fled with all that he had;
and he rose up, and passed over
the river, and "set his face toward
the mount Gilead,
22 And it was told Laban on the
third day, that Jacob was fled.
23 And he took "" his brethren with
him, and pursued after him seven
days' journey; and they overtook
him in the mount Gilead.
24 And God ^ came to Laban the
Syrian in a dream by night, and
said unto him, Take heed that thou
'â– speak not to Jacob ^ either good or
bad.
25 1" Then Laban overtook Jacob.
Now Jacob had pitched his tent in
the mount: and Laban with his
brethren jiitched in the mount of
Gilead.
26 And 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 ?
27 Wherefore 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 ?
28 And hast not suffered me *'to
kiss my sons and my daughters?
Hhou hast now done foolishly in so
doing.
20 It is in the power of my hand
to do you Inirt : but the '' God of
your father spake unto me ''yester-
night, saying. Take thou heed that
thou speak not to Jacob either
eood or bad.
oO And now, thongli thou wonki-
est needs be gone, because thou
sore longedst after thy father's
house, yet wherefore hast thou
•■stolen my gods?
31 And Jacob answered and said
to Laban, Because I was afraid :
for I said, Peradventure thou
wonkiest take by force thy daugh-
ters from me.
32 With whomsoever thou findest
thy gods, f-'let him not live: before
our brethren discern thou what is
thine with me, and take it to thee.
For Jacob knew not that Eachel
had stolen them.
33 And 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
Eachel's tent.
34 Now Eachel had taken the im-
ages, and put them in the camel's
furniture, and sat upon them. And
Laban ^searched all the tent, but
found tlieni not.
35 And she said to her father, Let
it not displease my lord that I can-
not ''rise up before thee; for the
custom of women is upon me.
And he searched, but found not
the images.
36 1 And Jacob was wroth, and
chode with Laban : and Jacob an-
swered and said to Laban, What is
my trespass ? what is my sin, that
thou hast so hotly pursued after me ?
37 Whereas 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 be-
twixt us both.
38 This twenty years have I heen
with thee; thy ewes and thy she
goats have not cast their young,
and the rams of thy flock have I
not eaten.

tle 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 borne ?
44 Now therefore come thou, 4et
us make a covenant, I and thou ;

45 And Jacob * took a stone, and
set it up for a pillar.
46 And Jacob said unto his
brethren. Gather stones ; and they
took stones, and made a heap :
and they tlid eat there upon the
heap.
47 And Laban called it "Jegar-

"Galeed.
48 And Laban said, " This heap is
a witness between me and thee
this day. Tlun^efore was the name
of it called Galeed,
49 And ""iiMizpah; for he said.
The Lord watch between me aiid
thee, when we are absent one from

50 If thou shalt afflict my daugh-
ters, or if thou shalt take other
wives beside my daughters, no
4^
man is with us; see, God is wit-
ness betwixt me and thee.
51 And La]}an said to Jacob,
Behold this heap, and behold this
Xjillar, which I have cast betwixt
me and thee ;
52 This heap be witness, and this
pillar be witness, that I will not
pass over this heap to thee, and
that thou shalt not pass over this
heap and this pillar unto me, for
harm.
53 The God of Abraham, and the
God of Nahor, the God of then-
father, ^judge betwixt us. And
Jacob ''sware by ""the fear of his
father Isaac.
54 Then Jacob "offered sacrifice
upon the mount, and called his
brethren to eat bread: and they
did eat bread, and tarried all night
in the mount.
55 And early in the morning
Laban rose up, and kissed his
sons and his daughters, and
^blessed them: and Laban de-
parted, and 'returned unto his
place.

brother Esau, and also ''he coineth
to meet thee, aud four huudi'ed
men with him.
7 Then Jaeob was greatly afraid
aud 'distressed: and he divided
the people that ivas with him, and
the flocks, and herds, and the cam-
els, into two bands ;
8 And said. If Esau come to the
one company, and smite it, then
the other company which is left
shall escape.
9 ^ ''And Jacob said, ' O God of
my father Abraham, and God of
my father Isaac, the Lord "which
saidst luito me, Return unto thy
country, and to thy kindred, and I
will deal well with thee :
10 ^ I am not worthy of the least
of all the "mercies, and of all the
truth, which thou hast shewed
unto thy servant; for with "my
statf I passed over this Jordan ;
and now I am become two bands.
11 p Deliver me, I pray thee, from
the hand of my brother, from the
hand of Esau : for I fear him, lest
he will come and smite me, ami
'^ the mother ♦ with the children.
12 And 'thou saidst, I will siu'ely
do thee good, and make thy seed
as the sand of the sea, which can-
not be numbered for multitude.
13 1 And he lodged there that
same night; and took of that
which came to his hand 'a present
for Esau his brother ;
14 Two hundred she goats and
twenty he goats, two hundred
ewes and twenty rams,
15 Thirty milch camels with their
colts, forty kine and ten bulls,
twenty she asses and ten foals.
IG And 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 di-ove and
drove.
17 And he commanded the fore-
most, saying, AVhen Esau my
brother meeteth thee, and asketli
thee, saying. Whose art thou I and
whither goest thou! and whose are
these before thee ?
18 Then thou shalt say, TJiey he
thy servant Jacob's ; it is a present
roeth before
see his
sent unto my lord Esau : and, be-
hold, also he is behind us.
19 And 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.
20 And say ye moreover,, Behold,
thy servant Jacol) is behind us.
For he said, I will ^appease him
with the present that g
me, and afterward I will
face ; i)eradventure he will accept
^of me.
21 So went the present over be-
fore him ; and himself lodged that
night in the company.
22 And he rose up that night, and
took, his two Avives, and his two
womenservants, and his eleven
sons, "and passed over the ford
Jabbok.
23 And he took them, and ^sent
them over the brook, and sent over
that he had.
24 1 And Jacob was left alone ;
and there ^wrestled a man with
him until the ^ breaking of the day.
25 And when he saw that he pre-
vailed 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.
2G And ^he said, Let me
go,
for
the day breaketh. And he said, •' I
will not let thee go, except thou
bless me.
27 And he said unto him. What is
thy name ? And he said, Jacob.
28 And he said, ''Thy name shall
be called no more Jacob, but "Is-
rael: for as a prince hast thou
'power with God and ''with men,
and hast prevailed.
29 And 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.
30 And Jacob called the name of
the place n Peniel : for ^ I have seen
God face to face, and my life is
preserved.
31 And as he passed over Penuel
the sun rose upon him, and he
halted upon his thigh.

CHAPTER XXXIII.
1 The kindness of Jacob and Esau at their meeting.
17 Jacob Cometh to Succoth. 18 At Shalem he huy-
eth a fielU^ and buildeih an altar called El-Elohe-
Israel.
XD 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 Ea-
chel, and unto the two handmaids.
2 And he put the handmaids and
their children foremost, and Leah
and her cliildren after, and Rachel
and Joseph hindermost.
3 And he jjassed over before
them, and ^ bowed himself to the
ground seven times, until he came
near to his brother.
4 ""And Esau ran to meet him,
and embraced him, '' and fell on his
neck, and kissed him: and they
wept.
5 And 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.
6 Then the handmaidens came
near, they and their children, and
they bowed themselves.
7 And Leah also with her children
came near, and bowed themselves :
and after came Joseph near and
Rachel, and they bowed them-
selves.
8 And 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.
And Esau said, I liave enough,
my brother ; ' keep that thou hast
unto thyself.
10 And Jacob said, Nay, I pray
thee, if now I have fouiul grace in
thy sight, then receive my present
at my ]iand: for tlwrefore 1 ''have
seen thy fa(;e, as though I had seen
the face of God, and thou wast
pleased with me.
11 Take, I i)r;iy thee, 'my bless-
ing that is brought to thee; be-
44
cause God hath dealt graciously
with ^me, and because I have
^enough. ^ And he urged him, and
he took it.
12 And he said, Let us take our
journej^, and let us go, and I will
go before thee.
13 And 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 overdiive them one
day, all the flock will die.
14 Let 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, un-
til I come unto my lord ' unto Seir.
15 And Esau said. Let me now
Ueave with thee some of the folk
that are with me. And he said,
tWhat needeth it? -"let me find
grace in the sight of my lord.
16 1 So Esau returned that day
on his way unto Seir.
17 And Jacob journeyed to "Suc-
coth, and built him a house, and
made booths for his cattle : there-
fore the name of the place is called
II Succoth.
18 1^ And Jacob came to "Sha-
lem, a city of " •' Shechem, which is
in the land of Canaan, when he
came from Padan-aram; and pitch-
ed his tent before the city.
19 And -'he bought a parcel of a
field, where he had spread his tent,
at the hand of the children of n Ha-
mor, Shechem's father, for a hund-
red II pieces of money.
20 And he erected there an altar,
and 'called it n El-Elohe-Israel.
CHAPTER XXXIV.
1 Dinah is ravished by Shechem. 4 He sveth to mar-

circumcision to the Shcchcmitcs. 20 Ilavior and
Shechem persuade them to accept it. 25 Tfie sons
of Jacob npon that advantage slay them, 27 and
spoil their city. 'SO Jacob reprovcth Simeon and
Levi.
AND ^ Dinah the daughter of
Leah, which she bare unto
Jacob, ''went out to see the daugh-
ters of the land.
2 And when Shechem the son of
Hamor the Hivite, prince of the
country, 'saw her, he ''took her,
and lay with her, and Uletiled her.

' 3 And his soul clave unto Dinah
the daughter of Jacob, and he lov-
ed the damsel, and spake ^Siudly
unto the damsel.
4 And Shechem "spake unto his
father Hamor, saying. Get me this
damsel to wife.
5 And Jacob heard that he had
detiled Dinah his daughter: now
his sons were with his cattle in the
field: and Jacob *^held his i^eace
until they were come.
6 1 And Hamor the father of She-
chem went out unto Jacob to com-
mune with him.
7 And the sons of Jacob came
out of the field when they heard
it: and the men were grieved, and
they ^were very wroth, because he
'' had wrought folly in Israel in ly-
ing with Jacob's daughter ; ' which
thing ought not to be done.
8 And Hamor communed with
them, saying, The soul of my son
Shechem longeth for your daugh-
ter: I pray you give her him to
wife.
9 And make ye marriages with
us, and give your daughters unto
us, and take our daughters unto
you.
10 And ye shall dwell with us:
and ^ the land shall be before you ;
dwell and 'trade ye therein, and
"'get you possessions therein.
11 And Shechem said unto her
father and unto her brethren, Let
me find grace in your eyes, and
what ye shall say unto me I will
give.
12 Ask me never so much "dowry
and gift, and I will give according
as ye shall say unto me : but give
me the damsel to wife.
13 And the sons of Jacob answer-
ed Shechem and Hamor his father
"deceitfully, and said, because he
had defiled Dinah their sister :
14 And they said unto them, We
cannot do this thing, to give our
sister to one that is uncircumcised ;
for p that tvere a reproach unto us :
15 But in this will we consent
unto you : If ye will be as we he,
that every male of you be circum-
cised ;
16 Then will we give our daugh-
ters unto you, and we will take
your daughters to us, and we will
dwell with you, and we will be-
come one peoi)le.
17 But if ye will not hearken un-
to us, to be circumcised ; then will
we take our daughter, and we will
be gone.
IcSi And their words pleased Ha-
mor and Shechem Hamor's son.
19 And the young man deferred
not to do the thing, because he had
delight in Jacob's daughter: and
he teas '" more honourable than all
the house of his father.
20 •[ And Hamor and Shechem
his son came unto the gate of their
city, and communed with the men
of their city, saying,
21 These men are x)eaceable with
us ; therefore let them dwell in the
land, and trade therein ; for the
land, behold, it is large enough for
them; let us take their daughters
to us for wives, and let us give
them our daughters.
22 Only herein will the men con-
sent unto us for to dwell with us,
to be one people, if every male
among us be circumcised, as they
are circumcised.
23 Shall not their cattle and their
substance and every beast of theirs
he ours? only let us consent unto
them, and they will dwell with us.
24 And unto Hamor and unto
Shechem his son hearkened all
that 'went out of the gate of his
city ; and every male was circum-
cised, all that went out of the gate
of his city.
25 ^ And it came to pass on the
third day, when they were sore,
that two of the sons of Jacob, 'Sim-
eon and Levi, Dinah's bretln-en,
took each man his sword, and came
upon the city boldly, and slew all
the males.
26 And they slew Hamor and
Shechem his son with the ^edge of
the sword, and took Dinah out of
Shechem's house, and went out.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon
the slain, and spoiled the city, be-
cause they had defiled their sister.
28 They took their sheep, and
their oxen, and their asses, and

5 ^ And Josepli droanicd a dream,
and lie told it liis Im'tliven : and
they liated him yet the more.
6 And he said imto tliem, Hear, I
pray you, this dream which I have
ch'eamed :
7 For, 'behold, we ircre l)indin,ii'
sheaves in the field, and, lo, my
sheaf arose, and also stood upright;
and, behold, yoiu* sheaves stood
round about, and made obeisance
to my sheaf.
8 And his brethren said to him,
Shalt thou indeed reign over us?
or shalt thou indeed have dominion
over us ? And they hated him yet
the more for his dreams, and for
his words.
9 1^ And he dreamed yet another
dream, and told it his brethren,
and said. Behold, I have dreamed a
dream more; and, behold, '^tlie sun
and the moon and the eleven stars
made obeisance to me. •
10 And he told it to his father,
and to his brethren : and his father
rebuked him, and said unto him.
What is this tbeam that thou hast
dreamed I Shall I and thy mother
and ^thy brethren indeed come to
bow down ourselves to thee to the
earth!
11 And ''his brethren envied him;
but his father ' observed the saying.
12 T^ And his brethren went to
feed their father's flock in She-
cliem.
13 And Israel said unto Joseph,
Do not thy brethren feed the floclc
in Shechem f come, and I will send
thee unto them. And he said to
him. Here am I.
14 And 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.
15 *[[ And a certain man found
him, and, behold, he teas wander-
ing in the field: and the man asked
him, saying, What .seekest thou f
16 And he said, I seek my breth-
ren: Hell me, I pray thee, where
they feed their flocks.
17 And the man said. They are
dei)arted hence ; for I heard them
say.
Let us lio to Dothan. And
Joseph w(Mit after his brethren,
and found them in "Dothan.
18 And when they saw him afar
off', even ])efore he came near unto
them, "they conspired against him
to slay him.
19 And they said one to another,
Behold, this klreamer cometh.
20 "Come now therefore, and let
us slay him, and cast him into
som(» pit, and we will say. Some
evil beast hath devoured him ; and
we shall see what will become of
his dreams.
21 And ' Eeuben heard it, and he
delivered him out of their hands ;
and said, Let us not kill him.
22 And Reuben said unto them,
Shed no blood, hut 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.
23 1 And it came to pass, when
Josejjh was come unto his brethren,
that they stri])ped Joseph out of
his coat, his coat of many " colours
that was on him ;
24 And they took Mm, and cast
him into a pit : and the pit was
emx)ty, there was no water in it.
25 'I And they sat down to eat
bread: and they lifted ui) their
eyes and looked, and, behold, a
company of ' Ishmaelites came from
Gilead, with their camels bearing
spicery and '^ balm and myrrh, go-
ing to carry it down to Egypt.
20 And Judah said unto his breth-
ren. What profit is it if we slay our
brother, and ' conceal his blood f
27 Come, and let us sell* him to
the Ishmaelites, and "let not our
hand be upon him ; for he is "^ our
brother and ^our flesh: and his
brethren ^were content.
28 Then there passed by "Mid-
ianites merchantmen ; and they
drew and lifted up Joseph out of
the pit, ''and sold Joseph to the
Ishmaelites for ''twenty pieces of
silver: and they brought Joseph
into Egyjit.

She beareth twins, Pharez and Zarah.
A^N^D it came to pass at that
jl\- time, that Judah went down
from his brethren, and â– ' tui-ned in
to a certain Adullamite, whose
name was Hirah.
2 And Judah "^ saw there a daugh-
ter of a certain Oanaanite, whose
name ivas " Shuah ; and he took
her, and went in unto her.
3 And she conceived, and bare a
son ; and he called his name ^ Er.
4 And she conceived again, and
bare a son ; and she called his
name '^ Onan.
5 And she yet again conceived,
and bare a .son ; and called his
name '^ Slielah : and he was at Ohe-
zil), when she bare liim.
() And Judah *-' took a wife for Er
his ihstborji, whose name tvas Ta-
rnar.
50
7 And '' Er, Judah's firstborn, was
wicked in the sight of the Lord ;
' and the Lord slew hhu.
8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go
in unto ^thy brother's wife, and
marry her, and raise up seed to thy
brother.
9 And Onan knew that the seed
should not be ^ his ; and it came to
pass, when he went in unto his
brother's wife, that he sijilled it on
the ground, lest that he should
give seed to his brother.
10 And the thing which he did
^ disi)leased the Lord : wherefore
he slew '" him also.
11 Then said Judah to Tamar his
daughter in law, " Eemain a widow
at thy father's house, till Shelah
my son be grown : for he said.
Lest peradventure he die also, as
his brethren did. And Tamar went
and dwelt " in her father's house.
12 ^ And * in process of time the
daughter of Shuah Judah's wife
(bed ; and Judah ^ was comforted,
and went up unto his sheepshear-
ers to Timnath, he and his friend
Hirah the Adullamite.
13 And it was told Tamar, say-
ing. Behold, thy father in law go-
etli uj) ''to Timnath to shear his
sheep.
14 And she put her widow's gar-
ments off from her, and covered
her with a vail, and wrapi)ed her-
self, and "^ sat in ^ an open place,
which is by the way to Timnath ;
for she saw 'that Shelah Avas
grown, and she was not given un-
to him to wife.
15 When Judah saw her, he
thought her to he a harlot; be-
cause she had covered her face.
16 And he turned unto her by
the way, and said, Go to, I pray
thee, let me come in unto thee;
(for he knew not that she ivas his
daughter in law:) and she said,
AVhat wilt thou give me, that thou
mayest come in mito me I
17 And he said, 'I will send thee

20 And Judah sent the kid by
the hand of his friend the Adul-

her not.
21 Then he asked the meti of that
place, saying. Where is the harlot,
that was " openly by the way side ?
And they said. There was uo har-
lot in this place.
22 And he returned to Judah,
and said, I cannot find her; and
also the men of the place said, that
there was no harlot in this place.
23 And Judah said. Let her take
it to her, lest we ^ be shamed : be-
hold, I sent this kid, and thou hast
not found her.
24 "f And it came to pass about
three months after, that it was told
Judah, saying, Tamar thy daugh-
ter in law hath Splayed the harlot ;
and also, behold, she is with child
by whoredom. And Judah said.
Bring her forth, ^and let her be
burnt.
25 When she was brought forth,
she sent to her father in law, say-
ing. By the man, whose these are,
am I with child: and she said,
^'Discern, I pray thee, whose are
these, " the signet, and bracelets,
and staff.
26 And Judah "^ acknowledged
them, and said, '^She hath been
more righteous than I ; because
that '^I gave her not to Shelah my
son. And he knew her again ^no
more.
27 1 And it came to pass in the
time of her travail, that, behold,
twins ivere in her womb.
28 And it came to pass, when she
travailed, that the one put out his
hand: and the midwife took and
bound upon his hand a scarlet
thread, saying. This came out first.
29 And it came to pass, as he
drew back his hand, that, behold,
his brother came out : and she said,
11 1 low hast thou broken forth f this
breach be u[)on thee : therefore his
name was called "' Pharez.
30 And afterward came out liis
brother, that liad the scarlet thread
ui)on his hand : and his name was
called Zarah.
CHAPTER XXXIX.
1 Joseph advanced in I\>tiphar's house. 7 He resist-
eth his tidstrcKs' teriqituUon. 13 He is falsely ac-
cused. 20 He is cast in in-ison. 21 God is with him
there.
A ND Joseph was brought down
Xjl to Egyi)t ; and ' Potiphar, an
officer of Pharaoh, captain of the
guard, an Egyptian, ^bought him
of the hands of the Ishinaelites,
which had brought him down
thither.
2 And "the Lord was with Jo-
seph, and he was a i^rosperous
man ; and he was in the house of
his master the Egyx)tian.
3 And his master saw that the
Lord was with him, and that the
Lord ''made all that he did to
prosper in his hand.
4 And Jos(?ph ' found grace in his
sight, and he served him: and he
made him ^ overseer over hi^s house,
and all that he had he put into his
hand.
5 And it came to pass from the
time that he had made him over-
seer in his house, and over all that
he h^id, that ^'the Lord blessed the
Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake;
and the blessing of the Lord was
upon all that he had in the house,
and in the field.
G And he left all that he had in
Joseph's hand; and he knew not
aught he had, save the bread
which he did eat. And Joseph
''was a goodly person, and well
favoiu'ed.
7 1 And it came to pass after
these things, that his master's wife
cast her eyes upon Joseph; and
she said, ' Lie with me. ^
8 But he refused, and said unto
his master's wife, Behold, my
master wottetli not what is with
me in the house, and he hath
committed all that he hath to my

""how then can I do this great
wickedness, and ' sin against God ?
10 And* it came to pass, as she
spake to Joseph day by day, that
he hearkened not unto her, to lie
by her, or to be with her.
11 And it came to pass .about
this time, that Joseph went into
the house to do his ])usiness ; and
there was none of the men of the
house there within.
12 And ""she cauglit him by his
garment, saying. Lie with me:
and he left his garment in her
hand, and fled, and got him out.
13 And it came to pass, when
she saw that he had left his gar-
ment in her hand, and was fled
forth,
14 That she called unto the men
of her house, and spake unto them,
saying. See, he hath brought in a
Hebrew unto us to mock us; he
came in unto me to lie with me,
and I cried with a ^loud voice :
15 And it came to pass, when he
heard that I lifted up my voice
and cried, that he left his garment
with me, and fled, and got him
out,
16 And she laid up his garment
by her, until his lord came home.
17 And she ".spake unto him ac-
cording to these words, saying.
The Hebrew servant, wliicli thou
hast brought unto us, came in
unto me to mock me :

lifted up my voice and cri(Ml, that

22 And the keeper of the prison
^committed to Josei)h's hand all
the prisoners that were in the
prison; and whatsoever they did
there, he was the doer of it.
23 The keeper of the prison

butler. .
A KD it came to pass after these
XJl. things, that the ''butler of the
king of Egypt and Ms baker had
offended their lord the king of
Egypt.
2 And Pharaoh was ''wroth
against two of his officers, against
the chief of the butlers, and against
the chief of the bakers.
3 ''And he put them in ward in
the house of the captain of the
guard, into the i)rison, the place
where Joseph urns bound.
4 And the captain of the guard
charged Joseph with them, and
he served them: and they con-
tinued a season in ward.
5 ^ And 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 Egyi)t, which ivere bound
in the prison.
6 And Joseph came in unto
them in the morning, and looked
upon them, and, behold, they were

9 Aud the cliief butler told liis
tlream to Joseph, and said to him,
lu my dream, behold, a viue ivas
before me ;
10 And in the viue were three
branehes : and it was as though
it budded, and her blossoms shot
forth ; and the clusters thereof
brought forth ripe grapes :
11 And Pharaoh's cup urns in my
hand : and I took the grapes, and
pressed them into rhai'at)h's cup,
and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's
hand.
12 And Joseph said unto him,
^This is the interpretation of it:
The three branches ^are three
days :
13 Yet 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 but-
ler.
14 But t' think on me when it
shall be well with thee, and ''shew
kmdness, I pray thee, unto me, and
make mention of me unto Pharaoh,
and bring me out of this house :
15 For indeed I was stolen away
out of the land of the Hebrews:
^ and here also have I done nothing
that they should put me iuto the
dungeon.
16 When the chief baker saw that
the interpretation was good, he
said unto Joseph, I also teas in my
dream, and, behold, / had three
" white baskets ou my head :
17 And in the uppermost basket
tliere ivas of all manner of U)ake-
meats for Pharaoh ; and the birds
did eat them out of the basket
upon my head.
18 And Joseph answered and said,
'" This is the interpretation thereof:
The thi-ee baskets are three days :
19 "Yet within three days shall
Pharaoh " lift up thy head from oft*
thee, and shall hang thee on a tree ;
and the birds shall eat thy flesh
from otf thee.
20 *\\ And it came to pass the third
day, w'hich ivas Pharaoh's "birth-
day, that he ^made a feast unto all
his servants: and he ""' lifted up
the head of the chief l)utk*r and of
the chief baker among his serv-
21 And he "^ restored the chief but-
ler unto his butlership again ; and
'he gave the cup into Pharaoh's
hand :
22 But he 'hanged the chief
baker: as Josex)h had interpreted
to them.
23 Yet did not the chief butler
remember Joseph, but "forgat him.

dreamed : and, behold, he stood by

2 And, behold, there came up out
of the river seven well favoured
kine and fatfleshed ; and they fed
in a meadow.
3 And, behold, seven other kine
came up after them out of the
river, ill ftivoured and leanfleshed ;
and stood by the otlier kine upon
the brink of the river.
4 And the ill favoured and lean-
fleshed kine did eat up the seven
well favoured and fat kine. So
Pharaoh awoke.
5 And he slei^t and dreamed the
second time: and, behold, seven
ears of corn came up upon one
stalk, trank and good.
6 zVnd, behold, seven thin ears
and blasted with the east wind
sprung up after them.
7 And the seven thin ears de-
voured the seven rank and full
ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and,
behold, it was a dream.
8 And it came to pass in the morn-

told them his dream ; but tliere was

14 ^ ''Then 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 Pha-

15 And Pharaoh said unto Jo-
sei:>h, 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.
16 And Joseph answered Pha-
raoh, saying, "It is not in me:
i'God shall give Pharaoh an an-
swer of peace.
17 And Pharaoh said unto Jo-
seph, "^In my dream, behold, I
stood upon the bank of the river :
18 And, behold, there came up
out of the river seven kine, fat-
fleshed and well
they fed in a meadow
19 And, 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 l)adness :
20 And the lean and the ill fa-
voured kine did eat up the first
seven fat kine :
21 And when they had ^ eaten
them uj), it could not be known
that thev had eatcMi thorn : but
they irerc still ill i'avoured, as at
the beginning. So 1 awoke.
22 And I saw in my dream, and,
behohl, seven ears came up in one
stalk, full and good :
23 And, behold, seven ears, " with-
54
favoured ; and
ered, thin, and blasted with the
east wind, sprung up after them :
24 And the thin ears devoured
the seven good ears : and ^ I
this unto the magicians ; but there
was none that could declare it to
me.
25 1 And Joseph said unto Pha-
raoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one :
*God hath shewed Pharaoh what
he is about to do.
26 The s'even good kine are seven
years ; and the seven good ears are
seven years : the dream is one.
27 And the seven thin and ill fa-
voured kine that came up after
them are seven years ; and the sev-
en empty ears blasted with the east
wind shall be * seven years of fam-
ine.
28 ""This is the thing which I have
spoken unto Pharaoh: AVhat God
is about to do he sheweth unto
Pharaoh.
29 Behold, there come ''seven
years of great plenty throughout
all the land of Egypt :
30 And there shall ''^irise after
them seven years of famine ; and
all the plenty shall be forgotten in
the land of Egyr)t ; and the famine
'shall consume the land;
31 And the plenty shall not be
known in the land by reason of
that famine following ; for it shall
he very + grievous.
32 And 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 i)ass.
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look
out a man discreet and wise, and
set liim over the land of Egypt.
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let
him appoint " officers over the land,
and Make up the tiftli part of the
land of Egypt in the seven plen-
teous years.
35 And 'let them gather all the
food of those good years that come,
and lay up corn undiT the hand of
Pharaoh, and let them keep food
in the cities.

38 And Pharaoh said unto his
servants, Can we And shcIi a one as
this is, a man *^in whom the Spirit

shewed thee all this, there is none
so discreet and wise as thou art :
40 ^Thou shalt be over my house,
and according unto thy word shall
all my people ^be ruled: only in

41 And Pharaoh said unto Jo-
seph, See, I have ^ set thee over all
the land of Egypt.
42 And Pharaoh 'took off his
ring fi'om his hand, and put it
upon Joseph's hand, and "^ arrayed
liim in vestures of " tine linen, ' and
put a gold chain about his neck ;
43 And he made him to ride in
the second chariot wliich he had ;
'" and they cried before him, " ^ Bow
the knee : and he made him ruler
" over all the land of Egypt.
44 And Pharaoh said unto Jo-
seph, I am Pharaoh, and without
thee shall no man lift up his hand
or foot in all the land of Egypt.
45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's
name " Zaphnath-paaneah ; and he
gave him to wife Asenath the
daughter of Poti-pherah " priest of
On. And Joseph went out over
all the land of Egypt.
4G ^ And Joseph was thirty
years old when he ° stood before
Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Jo-
seph went out from the presence
of Pharaoh, and went throughout
all the land of Egypt.
47 And in the seven plenteous
years the earth brought forth by
handfuls.
48 And 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 tvas round
about every city, laid he up in the
same.
49 And Joseph gathered corn p as
the sand of the sea, very nuich,
until he left numbering; for it was
without numb(;r.
50 ''And unto Joseph were born
two sons, before the years of
famine came: which Asenath the
daugliter of Poti-pherah "priest of
On bare unto him.
51 And Josei)h called the name
of the firstborn "Manasseh: Eor
God, said he, hath made me forget
all my toil, and all my father's
house.
52 And the name of the second
called he " Ephraim : For God hath
caused me to be 'fruitful in the
land of my affliction.
53 ^ And the seven years of
plenteousness, that was in the
land of Egypt, were ended.
54 'And the seven years of dearth
began to come, ^according as Jo-
seph had said : and the dearth was
in all lands ; but in all the land of
Egypt there was bread.
55 And when all the land of
Egypt was tarnished, the people
cried to Pharaoh for bread: and
Pharaoh said unto all the Egyp-
tians, Go unto Joseph; what he
saith to you, do.
5G And 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.
57 ^And all countries came into
Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn ;
because that the famine was so
sore in all lands.

unto them, Whence come ve ? And
they said. From the land of Canaan
to buy food.

servants come.
11 We are all one man's sons ; we
are true men ; thy servants are no

12 And he said unto them, iN^ay,
but to see the nakedness of the
land ye are come.
13 And they said. Thy servants
are twelve brethren, the sons of
one man in the land of Canaan;
and, l)ehold, the youngest is this
day with our father, and one ''is not.
14 And Joseph said unto them.
That is it that 1 spake unto you,
saying, Ye are spies :

' By tlie life of Pharaoh ye shall not
go forth hence, except your young-

19 If ye be true men, let one of
yoiu' brethren be bound in the
house of yom' prison : go ye, carry
corn for the famine of your houses:
20 But 'bring your youngest
brother unto me; so shall your
words be verified, and ye shall not
die. And they did so.
21 ^ And they said one to an-
other, ""We are verily guiltj^ con-
cerning 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.
22 And Eeuben answered them,
saying, %Spake I not unto you,
saying. Do not sin against the
child; and ye would not hear?
thei'efore, behold, also his blood is
Prequire(l.
23 And thev knew not that Jo-
seph understood them; for ^he
spake unto them by an interpret-
er.
24 And he turned himself about
from them, and wept ; and returned
to them again, and communed with
them, and took from them Sim-
eon, and bound him before their
eyes.
25 ^ Then Joseph commanded to
fill then' sacks with corn, and to re-
store every man's money into his
sack, and to give them provision
for the way: and ''thus tUd he
unto them.
26 And they laded their asses with
the corn, and departed thence.
27 And as "^one of them opened
his sack to give his ass provender
in the inn, he esi)ied his money;
for, behold, it loas in his sack's
mouth.
28 And he said unto his brethren,
My money is restored ; and, lo, it
is even in my sack : and their heart

unto them ; saying,
30 The man, icho is the lord of

and took us for spies of the country.
31 And we said unto him. We are
true men ; we are no spies :
32 We he twelve bretln-en, sons
of our father ; one is not, and the
youngest is this day with our father
in the land of Canaan.
33 And the man, the lord of the

leave one of your brethren here with
me, and take food for the famine
of your households, and be gone :
34 And bring your youngest
brother unto me: then shall I
know that ye are no spies, but that
ye are true men : so will I deliver

unto them. Me have ye ^'bereaved

Simeon is not, and ye will take
Benjamin away: all these things
are against me.
37 And Eeuben 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.
38 And he said, My son shall not
go down with you; for 'his broth-
er is dead, and he is left alone : ^ if
mischief befall him by the way in
the which ye go, then shall ye
^ bring down my gray hairs with

AND the famine was^^ov^ in the
^ZA_ land.
2 And it came to pass, when they
had eaten up the corn which they
had brought out of Egypt, their
father said unto them, Go again,
buy us a little food.
3 And Judah spake unto him,
saying. The man Ulid solemnly
protest unto us, saying, Ye shall
not see my face, except your
^brother he with you.
4 If thou wilt send our brother
with us, we will go down and buy
thee food :
5 But if thou wilt not send him,
we Avill not go clown : for the man
said unto us, Ye shall not see my
face, except your brother he with
you.
G And Israel said. Wherefore dealt
ye so ill with me, as to tell the man
whether ye had yet a brother ?
7 And they said. The man ^ asked
us straitly of oiu' state, and of our
kindi-ed, saying. Is your father yet
alive! have ye another brother?
and Ave told him according to the
♦ tenor of these words : ^ Could we
certamly know that he would say.
Bring your brother down ?
8 And Judah said unto Israel his
father. Send the lad with me, and
we will arise and go ; that we may
live, and not die, both we, and
thou, and also our little ones.
9 I will be surety for him ; of my
hand shalt thou require him : " if
I bring him not unto thee, and' set
him before thee, then let me bear
the blame for ever :
10 For except we had lingered,
surely now we had returned "this
second time.
11 And their father Israel said
unto them, If it must he so now, do
this ; take of the best truits in the
land in your vessels, and '^ carry
down the man a present, a little
'^balm, and a little honey, spices
and mvrrh, nuts and almonds :
12 And take double money in
your hand; and the money *^that
was brought again in the mouth
of your sacks, cany it again in
yoiu' hand; peradventure it teas
an oversight.

arise, go again unto the man :

15 ^ And the men took that pres-
ent, and they took double money
in their hand, and Benjamin ; and
rose up, and went down to Egj^^t,
and stood before Joseph.
16 And when Joseph saw Benja-
min with them, he said to the ^ rul-
er of his house, Bring these men
home, and ♦ slay, and make ready ;
for these men shall'* dine with me
at noon.
17 And the man did as Joseph
bade; and the man brought the
men into Joseph's house.
18 And the men were afraid, be-
cause they were brought into Jo-
seph's house; and they said, Be-
cause of the money that was re-
turned in oiu' sacks at the first
time are we brought in ; that he
may *seek occasion against us, and
fall upon us, and take us for bond-
men, and oiu' asses.
19 And they came near to the
steward of Joseph's house, and
they communed with him at the
door of the house,
20 And said, O sir, ' * we came in-
deed down at the first time to buy
food:
21 And ^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.
22 And other money have we
brought down in our hands to buy
food : we cannot tell who put our
money in our sacks.
23 And he said, Peace he to you,
fear not: your God, and the God
of your father, hath given you
treasure in your sacks : * i had
your money. xVnd he brought Sim-
eon out unto them.
24 And the man brought the men
into Joseph's house, and ' gave them
water, and they washed their feet;
and he gave their asses provender.
25 And they made ready the pres-
ent against Joseph came at noon:
for they heard that they should eat
bread there.
.58
26 ^ And when Joseph came
home, they brought him the pres-
ent which 21'as in their hand into
the house, and '" bowed themselves
to him to the earth.
27 And he asked them of their
* welfare, and said, ^Is yoiu' father
well, the old man ""of whom ye
spake ? Is he yet alive f
28 And they answered, Thy serv-
ant our father is in good health,
he is yet alive. "And they bowed
down their heads, and made obei-
sance.
29 And he lifted ux) his eyes, and
saw his brother Benjamin, ^his
mother's son, and said. Is this your
younger brother, '^of whom ye
spake unto me f And he said, God
be gTacious unto thee, my son.
30 And Joseph made haste ; for
"^his bowels did yearn ui^on his
brother: and he sought u'here to
weep ; and he entered into his
chamber, and ^wept there.
31 And he washed his face, and
went out, and retrained himself,
and said. Set on * bread.
32 And they set on for him by
hinlself, and for them bv them-
selves, and for the Egyptians,
which did eat with liim, by them-
selves: because the EgjT^)tians
might not eat bread with the He-
brews ; for that is " an abomina-
tion unto the Egyptians.
33 And they sat before him, the
tu'stborn according to his birth-
right, and the youngest according
to his youth: and the men mar-
velled one at another.
34 And he took and sent messes
unto them from before him : but
Benjamin's mess was ''five times so
much as any of theu's. And they
drank, and * were merry with him.

CHAPTEE XLV.
1 Joseph maketh hinuelf knoion to his brethren. 5
He comforteth them in GoeVs providence. 9 He
sendeth for his father. 16 Pharaoh confirmeth it.
21 Joseph furnislieth them for tlieir journey, and
exhorteth them, to concord. 25 Jaxob is revived with
the news.
THEN Joseph could not refrain
himself before all them that
stood by him ; and he cried. Cause
every man to go out from me. And
there stood no man with him, while
Joseph made himiself known unto
his brethren.
2 And he ♦wept aloud: and the
Egyptians and the house of Pha-
raoh heard.
3 And Joseph said unto his breth-
ren, ^ I am Joseph ; doth my father
yet live ? And his brethren could
not answer him; for they were
" troubled at his presence.
4 And Joseph said unto his breth-
ren, Come near to me, I pray you.
And they came near. And he said,
I am Jose])h your brother, ^'whom
ye sold into Egypt.

ye sohl me hither: ''for (rod did

6 For these two years hath the
famine })cen in the land: and yet
there are five years, in the which
there slmll neither he earing nor
harvest.
7 And God sent me before you
♦ to preserve you a posterity in the
earth, and to save jour lives by a
great deliverance.
8 So now it was not you that sent
me hither, but God: and he hath
made me ' a father to Pharaoh, and
lord of all his house, and a ruler
thi-oughout all the land of Egyx)t.
9 Haste ye, and go up to my fa-
ther, and say unto him. Thus saith
thy son Joseph, God hath made
me lord of all Egypt : come down
unto me, tarry not :
10 And ^thou shalt dwell in the
land of Goshen, and thou shalt be
near unto me, thou, and thy chil-
(ben, and thy children's childi*en,
and thy flocks, and thy herds, and
all that thou hast :
11 And there will I nourish thee ;
for yet there are five years of fam-
ine ; lest thou, and thy household,
and all that thou hast, come to
poverty.
12 And, behold, your eyes see,
and the eyes of my brother Benja-
min, that it is »my mouth that
speaketh unto you.
13 And ye shall tell my father of
all my glory in Egj^pt, and of 4ill
that ye have seen; and ye shall
haste and '' bring down my father
hither.
14 And he fell upon his brother
Benjamin's neck, and wept ; and
Benjamin wept upon his neck.
15 Moreover he kissed all his
brethren, and wept upon them :
and after that his brethren talked
Avith him.

heard in Pharaoh's house, saying,
Joseph's brethren are come: and

21 And the chikh'en of Israel did
so : and Joseph gave them wag-

22 To all of them he gave each
man changes of raiment; but to
Benjamin he gave three hundred

of raiment.
23 And to his father he sent after
this mdmier ; ten asses Uaden with
the good things of Egypt, and ten
she asses laden with corn and
bread and meat for his father by
the way.
24 So he sent his brethren away,
and they departed: and he said
unto them, See that ye fall not

25 1 And they went up out of
Egypt, and came into the land of
Canaan unto ,Jacob their father,
2G And told him, saying, Joseph
is yet alive, and he is governor
over all the land of Egypt. ' And
+ Jacob's heart fainted, for he be-

27 And they told him all the
words of Joseph, which he had
said unto them : and when he saw
the wagons which Joseph had sent
to carry him, the spirit of Jacob
their father revived.
28 And Israel said. It is enough ;
Joseph my son is yet alive : I will

8 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob,
^How old rtrtthouf
9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh,
' The days of the years of my i)il-
grimage are a 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 fa-
thers in the days of their pilgrim-
age.
10 And Jacob ° blessed Pharaoh,
and went out from before Pharaoh.
11 1^ And Joseph placed his fa-
ther and his brethren, and gave
them a possession in the land of
Egypt, in the best of the land, in
the land of ^ Kameses, '' as Pharaoh
had commanded.
12 And Joseph nourished his fa-
ther, and his brethren, and all his
father's household, with bread,
" ^ according to their families.
13 1^ And there was no bread in
all the land; for the famine tvas
very sore, ''so that the land of
Egypt and all the land of Canaan
fainted by reason of the tainine.
14 ^And Joseph gathered up all
the money that was found in the
land of Egypt, and in the land of
Canaan, for the corn which they
bought: and Joseph brought the
money into Pharaoh's house.
15 And when money failed in the
land of Egypt, and in the land of
Canaan, all the Egyptians came
unto Joseph, and said, Give us
bread : for ' why should we die in
thy presence? for the money fail-
eth.
IC And Joseph said. Give your
cattle; and I will give you for
yoiu' cattle, if money fail.
17 And tliey brought their cattle
unto Joseph: and Josei)h gave
them bread in exchange for horses,
and for the flocks, and for the cat-
tle of the herds, and for the asses ;
an/1 he ♦fed them with bread for
all their cattle for that year.
18 AVhen that year was ended,
they came unto him the second
year, and said unto him, We will
not hide it from my lord, how that
our money is spent ; my lord also
hath our herds of cattle ; there Is
not aught left in the sight of my
lord, but our bodies, and our lands:
11) Wherefore shall we die before
thine eyes, both we and our land ?
buy us and our land for bread, and
we and our land will be servants
unto Pharaoh : and give its seed,
that we may live, and not die, that
the land be not desolate.
20 And Joseph bought all the
land of Egypt for Pharaoh ; for the
Egyptians sold every man his field,
because the famine prevailed over
them: so the land became Pha-
raoh's.
21 And as for the people, he re-
moved them to cities from one end
of the borders of Egypt even to the
other end thereof.
22 "Only the land of the "priests
bought he not ; for the priests had
a portion assigned them of Pharaoh,
and did eat their portion which
Pharaoh gave them : wherefore
they sold not their lands.
23 Then Joseph said unto the
people. Behold, I have bought you
this day and your land for Pha-
raoh : lo, here is seed for you, and
ye shall sow the land.
24 And it shall come to pass in
the increase, that ye shall give the
fifth part unto Pharaoh, and four
parts shall be your own, for seed
of the field, and for your food, and
for them of yoiu? households, and
for food for your little ones.
25 And they said. Thou hast saved
OIK lives : ''let us find grace in the
sight of my lord, and we will be
Pharaoh's servants.
26 And Joseph made it a law over
the land of Egypt unto this day,
tliat Pharaoh should have the fifth
part; ^except the land of the
"f>riests only, which became not
Pharaoh's.

A ND it came to pass after these

nasseh and Ephraim.
2 And one told Jacob, and said,
Behold, thy son Joseph cometh
unto thee: and Israel strengthened
himself, and sat ui)on the bed.
3 And Jacob said unto Joseph,
God Almighty ai^peared unto me
at ''Luz in the land of Canaan, and
blessed me,
4 And said unto me. Behold, I
will make thee fruitful, and nuilti-
ply thee, and I will make of thee, a

6 And thy issue, which thou be-
gettest after them, shall be thine,
and shall be called after the name of

7 And as for me, when I came
from Padan, "^Eachel died by me
in the land of Canaan in the way,
when yet there was but a little
way to come unto Ephrath: and
I buried her there in the way of
I Ephrath ; the same is Beth-lehem.
8 And Israel beheld Joseph's
sons, and said, A\Tio are these!
9 And Joseph said unto his fa-
ther, ''They are my sons, whom
God hath given me in this lilace.
And he said. Bring them, I pray
thee, unto me, and ^I will bless
them.
10 I^ow etlie eyes of Israel were
Ulim for age, so that he could not

unto him; and ^he kissed them,
and embraced them.
11 And Israel said unto Joseph,
' I had not thought to see thy face :
and, lo, God hath shewed me also
thy seed.
12 And Joseph brought them out
from between his knees, and he
bowed himself with his face to the
earth.
13 And 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 tliem near unto
him.
14 And 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

him, and kissed him.
2 And Joseph commanded his
servants the i)hysicians to ' embalm
his father : and the jihysicians em-
balmed Israel.
3 And forty days were fulfilled
for him; for so are fulfilled the
days of those which are embalm-
ed: and the Egyptians ^''moiu^ned
for him threescore and ten days.
4 And when the days of his
mourning were past, Joseph si)ake
unto '^the house of Pharaoh, say-
ing. If now I have found graee in
yoiu? eyes, si^eak, I pray you, in
the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

I have digged for me in the land
of Canaan, there shalt thou bury
me. ]Now therefore let me go up,
I pray thee, and biuy my father,
and I will come again.
6 And Pharaoh said. Go up, and
bury thy father, according as he
made thee swear.
7 1^ And Joseph went up to bury
his father : and with him went up
all the servants of Pharaoh, the
elders of his house, and all the
elders of the land of Egjq^t,
8 And all the house of Joseph,
and his brethren, and his father's
house: only their little ones, and
their flocks, and their herds, they
left in the land of Goshen.
9 And there went up witli him
both chariots and horsemen: and
it was a very great company.

THE SECOND BOOK OF MOSES,
CALLED
EXODUS.
CHAPTER I.
1 The children of larael, after Joseph's death, do mid-
tiphj, 8 T?ie wore they are oppressed by a new
king, the more they multiply. 15 The godVmess of
the midwives, in savi7ig the men children alive, 22
Pharaoh commandeth the male children to he cast
into the river.
NOW ^ these are the names of
the children of Israel, which
came into Egyjjt ; every m'an and
his household came with Jacob.
2 Eeuben, Simeon, Levi, and Jn-
dah,
3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benja-
min,
4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and
Asher.
5 And all the souls that came out
of the t loins of Jacob were ^ seventy
souls: for Joseph was in Egypt
already.
6 And Mosex)h died, and airiiis
brethren, and all that generation.
7 T" '^And the children of Israel
were fruitful, and increased abund-
antly, and multiplied, and waxed
exceeding mighty; and the land
was filled with them.
8 IS^ow there "" arose u^) a new king
over Egyx)t, which knew not Jo-
seph.
9 And he said unto his people.
Behold, ^the people of the children
of Israel are more and mightier
than we :
10 ^'Oome on, let us ""deal wisely
with them ; lest they multi])ly, and
it come to pass, that, when there
falleth out any war, tliey join also
unto our enemies, ;md light against
us, and no get them uj) out of the
land.
11 Therefore they did set over
them taskmasters 'to afflict them
with their ''burdens. And they
built for Pharaoh treasure cities,
Pithoiu ' and IJaanises.
12 'J>ut the more they adlicted
them, the more they umlliplied
G8
and grew. And they were grieved
because of the chikh-en of Israel.
13 And the Egyptians made the
children of Israel to serve with
rigour
14 And they ""made their lives
bitter with hard bondage, "in mor-
tar, and in brick, and in all manner
of service in the field: all their
service, wherein they made them
serve, ivas with rigour.
15 *1 And the king of Egypt spake
to the Hebrew midwives, of which
the name of the one icas Shiphrah,
and the name of the other Puah ;
16 And he said. When ye do the
office of a midwife to the Hebrew
women, and see tliem upon the
stools, if it 6e a son, then ye shall
kill liim ; but if it 6e a daughter,
then she shall live.
17 But the midwives ''feared God,
and did not ''as the king of Egypt
commanded them, but sayed the
meji children alive.
18 And the king of Egypt called
for the midwives, and said unto
them, Whj^ have ye done this thing,
and have saved the men chikben
alive ?
19 And ''the midwives said unto
Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew wo-
men are not as the Egyptian wo-
men; for they are lively, and are
delivered ere the midwives come in
unto them,
20 -^ Therefore God dealt well with
the midwives : and the i^eople mul-
tiplied, and waxed very mighty.
21 And it came to j)ass, because
the midwives feared God, 'that he
made tluiin liouses.
22 And Pharaoh charged all his
peoi)le, saying, * Every son that is
born ye shall cast iiito the river,
and every daughter ye shall save
alive.

CHAPTER II.
1 Moses is born, 3 and in an ark cast into the flags.
5 He ix found, and brought up by Pharaoh's dautjh-
ter. 11 He slaycth ati Egyptian. 13 He reproveth
a Hebrew. 15 He Jlccih into Jlidian. 21 He mar-
rieth Zipporah. 22 Ger.shoni is bor)i. 2o God re-
.tpccieth the Israelites' cry.
And there went ''a man of the
jljL house of Levi, and took to
wife a daughter of Levi.
2 And the woman conceived, and
hare a son : and ^' when she saw him
tliat he was a goodly child, she hid
him three montlis.
3 And when she coukl not longer
hide him, she took for him an ark
of bulrushes, and daubed it with
slime and with pitch, ^iid put the
child therein ; and sli||fciid it in
the flags by the riverJijpPnk.
4 '^And his sister st6<1Tf afar off, to
wit what would be done to him.
5 ^ And the '' daughter of Pha-
raoh 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.
G And when she had opened it,
she saw the child : and, behold, the
babe wept. And she had compas-
sion on him, and said, This is one
of the Hebrews' children.
7 Then said his sister to Pha-
raoh's daughter. Shall I go and
call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew
women, that she may nurse the
child for thee ?
8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to
her, Go. And the maid went and
called the child's mother.
9 And Pharaoh's daughter said
unto her. Take this child away, and
nurse it for me, and I will give
thee thy wages. And the woman
took the child, and nursed it.
10 And the child grew, and she
brought him unto Pharaoh's daugh-
ter, and he became ' her son. And
she called his name "Moses: and
she said, Because I drew him out
of the water.
11 T^ And it came to pass in those
days, "^ when Moses was grown, that
he went out unto his brethren, and
looked on their ^burdens: and he
spied an Egyptian smiting a He-
brew, one of his brethren.
12 And he looked tliis way and
that way, and when he saw that
tliere was no man, he "'slew the
Egyi)tian, and hid him in the sand.
13 And 'when he went out the
second day, behold, two men of the
Hel)i'e\vs strove together: and he
said to him that did the wrong.
Wherefore smitest thou thy fel-
low ?
14 And he said, ""Who made thee
^a prince and a judge over us? in-
tendest thou to kill me, as thou
killedst the Egyi)tian ? And Moses
feared, and said, Surely this tiling
is known.
15 Now when Pharaoh heard this
thing, he sought to slay Moses.
But 'Moses fled from the face of
Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of
Midian: and he sat down by â„¢a
well.
16 "Now the "priest of Midian
had seven daughters: ''and they
came and drew ivater, and filled the
troughs to water their father's flock.
17 And the shepherds came and
drove them away : but Moses stood
up and heli)ed them, and ''watered
their flock.
18 And when they came to ''Eeuel
their fiither, he said. How is it that
ye are come so soon to daj^ ?
19 And they said. An Egyptian
delivered us out of the hand of the
shepherds, and also drew ivater
enough for us, and watered the
flock.
20 And he said unto Ins daugh-
ters, And whe^e is he? why is it
tliat ye have left the man? call
him, that he may "^eat bread.
21 And Moses was content to
dwell with the man : and he gave
Moses ^Zipporah his daughter.
22 And she bare him a son, and
he called his name " ^ Gershom : for
he said, I have been ""a stranger in
a strange land.
23 1 And it came to pass '^ in pro-
cess of time, that the king of Egypt
died: and the children of Israel
^ sighed by reason of the bondage,
and they cried, and Hheir cry came
up unto God by reason of the bond-

1 Moses keejieth Jetltro's jiock. 2 God appeareih to
him in a burninff bush. 9 He scrideVi him to de-
liver Israel. 14 The name of God. 1.5 Hi^ message
to Israel.
NOAY Moses kept the flock of
Jethro his father in law, ^ the
X)riest of Midiaii : and he led the
flock to the back side of the desert,
and came to ^' the mountain of God,
even to Iloreb.
2 And '^the Angel of the Lord ap-
peared unto him in a flame of Are
out of the midst of a bush : and he
looked, and, behold, the bush burn-
ed witli fire, and the bush ivas not
consumed.
3 And Moses said, I will now turn
aside, and see this ''great sight,
why the Ijush is not burnt.
4 And when the Lord saw that
he turned aside to see, God called
"unto him out of the midst of the
bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And
he said. Here am-1.
5 And he said, Draw not nigh
hither: *^x)ut otF thy shoes from off
thy feet; for the place whereon
thou standest is holy ground.
6 Moreover he said, ^'I am the God
of thy father, the God of Abraham,
the God of Isaac, and the God of
Jacob. And Moses hid his face;
for '' he was afraid to look ui^n
God.
7 "f And the Lord said, ^I have
surely seen the aflliction of my
people which are in Egypt, and
have heard their cry ''by reason of
tlieir taskmasters; for 'I know then'
sorrows •,
8 And '"I am come down to "de-
liver them out of the hand of the
Egyptians, and to bring them up
i out of that land "unto a good hmd
and a large, unto a land 'flowing
with milk and honey; unto the
place of ''the Canaanites, and i\w
Hittites, and the Aniorite.s, and tlie
Perizzites, and the llivites, and the
Jebusites.
9 Now therefore, behold, ''the cry
of the children of Israel is come
70
unto me : and I have also seen the
'oi>pression wherewith the Egyp-
tians opi)ress them.
10 *Come now therefore, and I
will send thee unto Pharaoh, that
thou may est bring forth my j^eople
the children of Israel out of Egyj)t.
11 ^ And Moses said unto God,
"Who am I, that I should go unto
Pharaoh, and that I should bring
forth the childi-en of Israel out of
Egypt ?
12 And he said, ^ Certainly I will
be with thee; and this sliall he a
token unto thee, that I have sent
thee: When thou hast brought
forth th^fc^ople out of Egyi^t, ye
shall ser\^&od vipon this mount-
ain.
13 And Moses said unto God, Be-
hold, 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 ?
14 And God said unto Moses, I
AM THAT I AM: and he said.
Thus shalt thou say unto the chil-
dren of Israel, ^I AM hath sent
me unto vou.
15 And 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 vou: this is ^'my name for
ever, and this is my memorial luito
all generations.
16 Go, 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 mito me, saying,
''I have surely visited you, and
seen that which is done to you in
Egypt :
17 And I have said, '^I will bring
you up out of the aflliction of Egypt
unto the land of the Canaanites,
and the Hittites, and the Amorites,
and the Perizzites, and the llivites,
and the -Jebusites, unto a land
flowing with milk and honey.

1 Moses' rod is tiirned into a serpent. 6 His Jiand is
leprous. 10 He is loth to be sent. 14 Aaron is ap-
pointed to assist him. 18 3foses departeth from
Jethro. 21 God'.s me.s,^age to Pharaoh. 24 Zip-
porah circumciseth her son. 27 Aaron is sent to
meet Moses. 31 The people believeth them.
A ND Moses answered and said,
XA_ But, behold, they will not
believe me, nor hearken unto my
voice : for they will say. The Lokd
hath not api)eared unto thee.
2 And the Lord said unto him,
What is that in thine hand ? And
he said, ^ A rod.
3 And he said, Cast it on the
ground. And he cast it on the
ground, and it became a serpent ;
and Moses fled ti*om before it.
4 And 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 :
5 That they may "beheve that
''the Lord God of their fathers, the
God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob, hath ap-
peared unto thee.

6 ^ And the Lord said further-
more unto him. Put now thine
hand into thy bosom. And he
put liis hand into his bosom : and
when he took it out, behold, his
hand was leprous '' as snow.
7 And he said. Put thine hand
into thy bosom again. And he
l)ut his hand into his bosom again;
and plucked it out of liis l)osom,
and, behold, 'it was turned
as his other flesh.
8 And it shall come to pass, if
they will not believe thee, neither
hearken to the voice of W\i^, first
sign, that they will believe the
voice of the latter sign.
9 And 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 diy land : and ^the water
which thou takest out of the river
^ shall become blood upon the dry
land.
10 1" And Moses said unto the
Lord, O my Lord, I am not ^ elo-
quent, neither ^ heretofore, nor since
thou hast spoken unto thy servant ;
but ^'I am slow of speech, and of a
slow toiigue.
11 Ana the Lord said unto him,

or the seeing, or the blind f have
not I the Lord ?
12 Now therefore go, and I will
be 'with thy mouth, and teach
thee what thou shalt say.
13 And he said, O my Lord,
''send, I pray thee, by the hand of
Mm whom thou " wilt send.
14 And 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.

17 And thou shalt take ''this rod

18 1 And Moses went and re-
turned to t 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 Avhether they be yet alive.
And Jethro said to Moses, Go in
peace.
19 And the Lokd said unto Mo-
ses in Midian, Go, return into
Egypt : for ' all the men are dead
which sought thy life.
20 And Moses took his wife and
his sons, and set them upon an
ass, and he returned to the land of
Egypt: and Moses took Hhe rod
of God in his hand.
21 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, When thou goest to return
into Egypt, see that thou do all
those 'wonders before Pharaoh,
which I have put in thine hand:
but "I will harden his heart, that
he shall not let the people go.
22 And thou shalt say unto Pha-
raoh, Thus saith the Loii§, ^Israel
is my son, ^ even my firstborn :
23 And I • say unto thee. Let my
son go, that he may serve me:
and if thou refuse to let him go,
behold, '^l will slay thy son, even
thy firstborn.
24 l >d it came to pass by the
way in the inn, that the Lord
^met him, and sought' '^ ''kill him.
25 Tlien Zipporah took '^a sharp
" stone, and cut off the foreskin of
her son, and ^cast it at his feet,
and said, Surely a bloodj^ husband
art tliou to me.
2() So he let him go : then she
said, A bloody husband thou art,
because of the circumcisiou.
27 *[ And the Loud said to
Aaron, Go into the wildi^niess
''to meet Moses. And he Avent,
and met him in Hhe mount of
(}()d, aud kissed him.
28 And Moses ^told Aaron all
the words of the Lord who had
72
sent him, and all the s signs which
he had commanded him.
29 1 And Moses and Aaron
''went and gathered together all
the elders of the children of Is-
rael :
30 'And Aaron spake all the
words Avhich the Lord had spoken
unto Moses, and did the signs in
the sight of the i)eople.
31 And 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
thek heads and worshipped.
CHAPTER Y.
1 Pharaoh chidei?i Moses and Aaron for their mes-
sage. 5 Ue increa-seth the Israelites' task. 15 He
checketh their complaints. 20 They cry out upon
Moses aud Aaron. 23 Moses conipAaiiLeth to God.
A ND afterward Moses and Aaron
J\. went in, and told Pharaoh,
Thus saith the Lord God of Is-
rael, Let my people go, that they
may hold ""a feast unto me in the
wilderness.
2 And Pharaoh said, ''Who is the
Lord, that I should obey his voice
to let Israel go I I know not the
Lord, ''neither will I let Israel go.
3 And they said, "The God of the
Hebrews hath met with us : let us
go, we pray thee, three days' jour-
ney into the desert, and sacrifice
unto the Lord our God; lest he fall
upon us with pestilence, or with
the sword.
4 And the king of Egypt said
unto them. Wherefore do ye, Mo-
ses and Aaron, let the people from
their works! get you unto your
•^ burdens.
5 And Pharaoh said. Behold, the
people of the land now are "^many,
and ye make them rest from their
burdens.
And Pharaoh commanded the
same day the ^'taskmasters of the
people, and their officers, saying,
7 Ye shall no more give the peo-
ple straw to make brick, as hereto-
fore : let them go and gather straw
for themselves.
8 And the tale of ihe ])ricks,
which they did make heretofore,
ye shall lay upcm them ; ye shall

saying, Let us go and sacrifice to

I 9 ^Let there more work be laid
i upon the men, that they may la-

regard vain words.
10 ^ And the taskmaster's of the
people went out, and their oflicers,
and they spake to the people, say-
ing, Thus saith Pharaoh, 1 will not
give you straw.
11 Go ye, get you straw where
ye can find it: yet not aught of
your work shall be diminished.
12 So the people were scattered
abroad tliroughout all the land of
Egypt to gather stubble instead of
straw.
13 And the taskmasters hasted
tliem, saying, Fulfil your works,
hjour daily tasks, as when there
was straw.
14 And the officers of the chil-
dren of Israel, which Pharaoh's
taskmasters had set over them,
were beaten, and demanded.
Wherefore have ye not fulfilled
yoiu^ task in making brick both
yesterday and to day, as here-
tofore ?
15 ^ Then the officers of the
children of Israel came and cried
unto Pharaoh, saying. Wherefore
dealest thou thus with thy serv-
ants ?
16 There 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.
17 But he said. Ye are idle, ye
are idle: therefore ye say. Let us
go and do sacrifice to the Lord.
18 Go therefore now, and work;
for there shall no straw be given
you, yet shall ye deliver the tale
of bricks.
19 And the officers of the children
of Israel did see that they ivere in
evil case, after it was said. Ye shall
not minish aught trom your bricks
of yoiu? daily task.
20 ^ And they met Moses and
Aaron, who stood in the way, as
they came forth from Pharaoh :
21 ^And they said unto them,
The Lord look upon you, and
judge ; beciiuse ye have made our
savour Ho be abhorred in the eyes
of Pharaoh,, and in the eyes of his
servants, to put a sword in their
hand to slay us.
22 And Moses returned unto the
Lord, and said. Lord, wherefore
hast thou so evil entreated this
people? why is it that thou hast
sent me?
2-'> For since I came to Pharaoh
to speak in thy name, he hath
done evil to this people; hieither
hast thou delivered thy people at all.

4 But Pliaraoli shall not hearken

children of Israel, out of tlie land
of Egypt ''by great judgments.
5 And the Egyptians ' shall knoAV
that I am the Lord, when I "^ stretch
fortli mine hand upon Egypt, and
bring out the children of Israel
from among them.
And Moses and Aaron ' did as
the Lord commanded them, so
did they.
7 And Moses was "'fourscore
years old, and Aaron fourscore
and three years old, when they
spake unto Pharaoh.
8 T^ And the Lord spake unto
Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 When Pharaoh shall speak
unto you, saying, " Shew a miracle
for you : then thou shalt say unto
Aaron, °Take thy rod, and cast it
before Pharaoh, and it shall be-
come a serpent.
10 1 And Moses and Aaron went
in unto Pharaoh, and they did so
Pas the Lord had commanded:
and Aaron cast down his rod be-
fore Pharaoh, and before his serv-
ants, and it "^ became a serpent.
11 Then Pharaoh also 'called the
wise men and Hhe sorcerers: now
the magicians of Egypt, they also
' did in like manner with theii' en-
chantments.
12 For they cast down every man
his rod, and they became serpents :
but Aaron's rod swallowed ui^
their rods.
13 And he hardened Pharaoh's
heart, that he hearkened not unto
them; "as the Lord had said.
14 1 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, "" Pharaoh's heart is hardened,
he refuseth to let the people go.
15 Get thee unto Pharaoh in the
morning; lo, he goeth out unto
the water; and thou shalt stand
by the river's brink against he
come; and ^'the rod which was
turned to a serpent shalt thou
take in tlune hand.
1 n And thou shalt say unto him,
'The Lord God of tlie Hebrews
hath sent me unto thee, saying,
Let my x)eople go, 'tliat they may
serve me in the wilderness: and,
behold, hitherto thou wouldest not
hear.
17 Thus saith the Lord, In this
''thou shalt know that I am the
Lord: behold, I will smite witli
tlie rod that is in mine hand upon
the waters which are in the river,
and nliey shall be turned ''to blood.
18 And the fish that is in the river
shall die, and the river shall stink ;
and the Egyptians shall 'loathe to
drink of the water of the river.
19 1 And the Lord spake unto
Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy
rod, and *^ stretch out thine hand
upon the waters of Egyi3t, upon
their streams, upon their rivers,
and upon their ponds, and upon
all their ^ pools of water, that they
may become blood ; and that there
may be blood throughout all the
land of Egypt, both in vessels of
wood, and in vessels of stone.
20 And Moses and Aaron did so,
as the Lord commanded ; and he
^'lifted up the rod, and smote the
waters that were in the river, in the
sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight
of his servants ; and all the '' waters
tliat were in the river were turned
to blood.
21 And the fish that ivds in the
river died; and the river stank,
and the Egyptians ' could not drink
of the water of the river; and there
was blood throughout all the land
of Egypt.
22 ""And the magicians of Egypt
did so with their enchantments:
and Pharaoh's heart was hardened,
neither did he hearken imto them ;
' as the Lord had said.
23 And Pharaoh turned and went
into his house, neither did he set
his heart to this also.
24 And all the Egyptians digged
round about the river for water to
drink ; for they could not di'ink of
the water of the river.
25 And seven days were fulfilled,
after that the Lord had smitten
the river.

Let my people go, Hhat they may
serve me.
2 And if thou ^refuse to let them
go, behold, I will smite all thy
borders with "frogs :
3 And the river shall bring forth
frogs abundantly, which shall go
up and come into thine house, and
into '^thy bedchamber, and upon

thy servants, and upon thy people,
and into thine ovens, and into thy
" kneadingtroughs :
4 And the frogs shall come up
both on thee, and upon thy people,

5 ^ And the Lord spake unto
Moses, Say unto Aaron, 'Stretch
forth thine hand with thy rod over
the streams, over the rivers, and
over the ponds, and cause frogs to
come up upon the land of Egypt.
6 And Aaron stretched out his
hand over the waters of Egypt;
and ''the frogs came up, and cover-
ed the land of Egypt.
7 sAnd the magicians did so with
their enchantments, and brought
up frogs* upon the land of Egypt.
8 1 Then Pharaoh called for Mo-
ses and Aaron, and said, ''Entreat
the Lord, that he may take away
the frogs from me, and from my
l)eople ; and I Avill let the x>eople
go, tliat they may do sacrifice unto
the Lord.
9 And Moses said unto Pharaoh,
"Glory over me: "when shall I en-
treat for thee, and for tliy servants,
and for tliy people. Ho destroy the
frogs from thee and thy houses,
that they may remain in the river

10 And he said, ^ To morrow. And

13 And the Lord did
to the word of Moses; and the
frogs died out of the houses, out of
the villages, and out of the fields.
14 And they gathered them to-
gether upon heaps; and the land
stank.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that
there was 'respite, "'he hardened
his heart, and hearkened not unto
them ; as the Lord had said.

Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch
out thy rod, and smite the dust of

17 And they did so; for Aaron
stretched out his hand with his rod,
and smote the dust of the earth,
and "it became lice in man, and in
beast ; all the dust of the land be-
came lice throughout all the land
of Egypt.
18 And "the magicians did so with
their enchantments to bring forth
lice, but they p could not : so there
were lice uiJon man, and upon

Pharaoh, This is Hhe finger of

Moses, ' Else up early in the morn-
iug, and stand before Pharaoh, and
say unto him. Thus saith the Lord
God of the Hebrews, Let my i)eo-
ple go, that they may serve me.
14 For I will at this time send all
my i)lagues upon thine heart, and
upon thy servants, and upon thy
people; "that thou may est know
that tliere is none Uke me in all
the earth.
15 For 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.
16 And in very deed for "this
cause have I ^raised thee uj), for
to shew in thee my j)ower; and
that my name may be declared
throughout all the earth.
17 As yet exaltest thou thyself
against my peoi^le, that thou wilt
not let them go f
18 Behold, to morrow about this
time I will cause it to rain a very
grievous hail, such as hath not
been in Egyi^t since the founda-
tion thereof even until now.
19 Send therefore now, and gath-
er thy cattle, and all that thou
hast in the field; for iipon 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.
20 He that feared the word of
the Lord among the servants of
Pharaoh made his servants and
his Cattle flee into the houses :
21 And he that ^regarded not the
word of the Lord left his servants
and his cattle in the field.
22 1 And the Lord said unto
Moses, Stretdi forth thine hand
toward heaven, that there may be
'liail ill all the land of Egyiit, up-
on man, and upon beast, and ujion
every herb of the field, thi'oughout
the land of Egyjit.
23 And Moses stretched forth his
rod toward heaven: and'tlu^ Lokd
sent thunder and hail, and the fii-e
78
ran along upon the ground; and
the Lord rained hail upon the
land of Egypt.
24 So there was hail, and fire
mingled with the hail, very griev-
ous, such as there was none like it
in all the land of Egypt since it
became a nation.
25 And the hail smote through-
out all the land of Egypt all that
ivas in the field, both man and
beast; and the hail '^ smote every
herl) of the field, and brake every
tree of the field.
26 ^ Only in the land of Goshen,
where the children of Israel ivere,
was there no hail.
27 "[And Pharaoh sent, and called
for Moses and Aaron, and said un-
to them, *I have sinned this time:
"the Lord is righteous, and I and
my people are wicked.
28 "^ Entreat the Lord (for it is
enough) that there be no onore
^ mighty thunderings and hail ; and
I will let you go, and ye shall stay
no longer.
29 And Moses said unto him. As
soon as I am gone out of the city,
I will ^'spread abroad my hands
unto the Lord ; and the thunder
shall cease, neither shall there be
any more hail; that thou mayest

CHAPTEK X.
1 God threateneth to send locusts. 7 Pharaoh^ moved
by his seri'anis, indiueth to let the Israelites go. 13
The 2)l(i(jfue of the locusts. 1(5 Pharaoh sneth to
Moses. 21 The ])laguc of darkness. 24 Pharaoh
sueth unto Moses, 27 but yet is hardened.
A ND the Lord said unto INIoses,
jljL Go in nnto Pharaoli: -'for 1
have hardened his hi^art, and the
heart of his servants, ^'thatl might
shew these my signs before him :
2 And that '^thou may est 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.
3 And Moses and Aaron came in
unto Pharaoh, and said unto him.
Thus saith the Lord God of the
Hebrews, How long wilt thou re-
fuse to '^ humble thyself before me ?
let my i)eople go, that they maj'
serve me.
4 Else, if thou refuse to let my
people go, behold, to morrow will I
bring the 'locusts into thv coast :
5 And they shall cover the tface
of the earth, that one cannot be
able to see the earth: and *^they
shall eat the residue of that which
is escaped, wliich remaineth unto
you from the hail, and shall eat
every tree which groweth for you
out of the field :
6 And they ^ shall fill thy houses,
and the houses of all thy servants,
and the houses of all the Egyp-
tians; which neither thy fathers,
nor thy fathers' fathers have seen,
since the day that they were ui)on
the earth unto this day. And he
turned himself, and went out ti-om
Pharaoh.
7 And Pharaoh's servants said un-
to him. How long shall this man
be "^ a snare unto us ! let the men
go, that they may serve the Lord
their God: knowest thou not yet
that Egj pt is destroyed f
8 And Moses and Aaron were
brought again unto Pharaoh : and
he said unto them, Go, serve the
Lord your God :l)ut ♦ who are they
that shall go I
9 And Moses said, We will go
with our young and with our old,
with our sons and with our daugh-
ters, with our flocks and Avitli our
herds will we go ; for ' we must hold
a feast unto the Lord.
10 And he said unto them, Let
the Lord be so Avith you, as I will
let you go, and your little ones:
look to it ; for evil is before you.
• 11 Xot so : go now ye that are
men, and serve the Lord ; for that
ye did desne. And they were driv-
en out ti'om Ph{u\'ioh's presence.
12 ^\ And the Lord said unto
Moses, "^ Stretch out thine hand
over the land of Egypt for the lo-
custs, that they may come up upon
the land of Egypt, and ' eat every
herb of the land, even all that the
hail hath left.
13 And Moses stretched forth his
rod over the land of Egypt, and
the Lord brought an east wind
' upon the land all that day, and all
I that night; and when it was morn-
ing, the east wind brought the
locusts.
14 And â„¢the locusts went up
over all the land of Egypt, and
rested in all the coasts of Egypt :
very grievous were they; "before
them there were no such locusts
as they, neither after them shall
be such.
15 For they ° covered the face of
the whole earth, so that the land
was darkened; and they ^'did eat
every herb of the land, and all the
fruit of the trees which the hail
had left: and there remained not
any green thing in the trees, or in
the herbs of the field.
through
all
the land of Egypt.
16 1 Then Pharaoh t called for
Moses and Aaron in haste; and
he said, '^ I have sinned against the
Lord your God, and against you.
17 Xow therefore forgive, I pray
thee, my sin only this once, and
'^ entreat the Lord your God, that
he may take away fiom me this
death only.

raoh, and entreated the Lord.

Moses, '^ Stretch out thine hand to-
ward heaven, that there may be

22 And Moses stretched forth his
hand toward heaven; and there
was a y thick darkness in all the
land of Egypt three days :
23 They saw not one another,
neither rose any from his place
for three days: ^but all the chil-
dren of Israel had light in their
dwellings.

Moses, and ''said. Go ye, serve the
Lord; only let your flocks and
your herds be stayed: let yom*

give His also sacrifices and burnt
offerings, that we may sacrifice
unto the Lord our God.
26 Our cattle also shall go with
us ; there shall not a hoof be left
behind ; for thereof must we take
to serve the Lord our God; and
we know not with what we must
serve the Lord, until we come
thither.
27 1 But the Lord "hardened
Pharaoh's heart, and he would not
let them go.
28 And Pharaoh said unto him.
Get thee from me, take heed to
thys^elf, see my face no more; for
in that day thou seest my face thou
shalt die.

spoken well, "I will see thy face

4 And Moses said. Thus saith
the Lord, "About midnight will I
go out into the midst of Egypt :
5 And '^all the firstborn in the
land of Egypt shall die, from the
firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth
upon his tlu'one, even unto the
firstborn of the maidservant that
is behind the mill; and all the
firstborn of beasts.
6 ^And 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.
7 *" But against any of the children
of Israel ' shall not a dog move his
tongue, against man or beast : that

doth put a difference between the
Egyptians and Israel.

shall come down unto me, and bow
down themselves unto me, saying.

9 And the Lord said unto Moses,
'Pharaoh shall not hearken unto
you; that "'my wonders may be
multiplied in the land of Egypt.

A ND the Lord spake unto Mo-
J\. ses aucl Aaron in the land of
Egypt, saying,
2 'This month shall he mito yon
the beginning- of mouths: it shall
he the lirst month of the year to
you.
3 1 Speak ye unto all the congre-
gation of Israel, saying, In the
tenth day of this month th(\y shall
take to them every man a n lamb,
according to the house of tiieir fa-
thers, a lamb for a house :
4 And if the household be too lit-
tle for the lamb, let him and his
neighbour next unto his house take
it according to the number of the
souls ; every man according to his
eating shall make your count for
the lamb.
5 Yoiu? lamb shall be ^without
blemish, a male ^ of the first year :
ye shall take it out from the sheep,
or from the goats :
G And ye shall keep it up until the
fourteenth day of the same month:
and the whole assembly of the con-
gregation of Israel shall kill it Un
the evening.
7 And they shall take of the blood,
and strike it on the two side jjosts
and on the ui)per door post of the
houses, wherein they shall eat it.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in
that night, roast with fire, and '^ un-
leavened bread; and with bitter
herhs they shall eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden
at all with water, but ^ roast with
tire; his head with his legs, and
with the purtenance thereof.
10 ^And ye shall let nothing of it
remain until the morning; and that
which remaineth of it until the
morning ye shall burn with fire.
11 1 And thus shall ye eat it;
with your loins girded, your shoes
on your feet, and your staff in your
hand ; and ye shall eat it in haste :"
^it is the Lord's passover.
12 For I ''will pass through the
land of Egypt this night, and will
smite all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, both man and beast ; and
'against all the "gods of Egypt I
will execute judgment: "I am the
Lord.
13 And the blood shall be to you
for a token ujion the houses Avhere
ye are : and wlu;n I see the blood,
1 will i>ass over you, and the ])lague
sluill not be upon yon 'to destroy
you, when 1 smite the land of
Egypt.
14 And this day shall be unto you
' for a memorial ; and ye shall keep
it a "'feast to the Lord throughout
your generations : ye shall keep it
a feast " by an ordinance for ever.
15 "Seven days shall ye eat un-
leavened bread ; even the first day
ye shall put away leaven out of
your houses : for whosoever eateth
leavened bread froirl the first day
until the seventh day, ''that soul
shall be cut off from Israel.
10 And in the first day there shall
he "^n holy convocation, and in the
seventh day there shall be a holy
convocation to you ; no manner of
work shall be done in them, save
tliat which every *man must eat,
that oidy may be done of you.
17 And ye shall observe the feast
of unleavened bread ; for ' in this
selfsame day have I brought your
armies out of the land of Egypt:
therefore shall ye observ,e this day
in your generations by an ordi-
nance for ever.
18 ^[ 'In the first month, on the
fourteenth day of the month at
even, ye shall eat unleavened
bread, until the one and twentieth
day of the month at even.
19 ' Seven days shall there be no
leaven found in your houses: for
whosoever eateth that which is
leavened, "even that soul shall be
cut off from the congregation of
Israel, whether he be a stranger,
or born in the land.
20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened;
in all yom- habitations shall ye eat
unleavened bread.
21 «f Then Moses called for all
the elders of Israel, and said unto
them, ''Draw out and take you a
"lamb according to your famiUes,

23 ''For the Lord will pass
through to smite the Egyptians;
and when he seeth the blood up-
on the lintel, and on the two side
posts, the Lord will pass over the
door, and ^will not suffer 'the de-
stroyer to come in unto your

and to thy sons for ever.
25 And it shall come to pass,
when ye be come to the land
which the Lord will give you,
'^according as he hath i)romised,
that ye shall keep this service.
26 ^And it shall come to pass,

ice!
27 That ye shall say, at 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 de-
livered our houses. And the peo-
]}\e ebowe^ the head and worship-
ped.
28 And the children of Israel
went away, and '' did as the Lord
had commanded Moses and Aaron,
so did they.
29 1^ 'And it came to pass, that
at midnight ''the Lord smote all
the firstborn in the land of Egypt,
' from the firstborn of Pharaoh that
sat on his throne unto the firstborn
of the captive that was in the ^ dun-
geon ; and all the firstborn of cat-
tle.
30 And Pharaoh rose up in the
night, he, and all his servants, and
all the Egyptians; and there was
a "'great cry in Egypt: for there
was not a house where there ivas
not one dead.
31 1 And "he called for Moses
and Aaron by nigiit, and said,
Rise up, and get you forth from
among my people, "both ye and
the children of Isr«ael ; and go,
serve the Loud, as y(; liave said.
32 ^xWao take your flocks and
82
and
your herds, as ye have said,
be gone; and "^ bless me also.
33 "^And the Egyptians were ur-
gent upon the people, that they
might send them out of the land
in haste; for they said, 'We he all
dead men.
34 And the people took their
dough before it was leavened, their
'I kneadingtroughs being bound up
in then' clothes upon their shoul-
ders.
35 And the chikhen of Israel did
according to the word of Moses;
and they borrowed of the Egyp-
tians * jewels of silver, and jewels
of gold, and raiment :
36 "And the Lord gave the j)eo-
ple favour in the sight of the
Egyptians, so that they lent unto
them such things as they required:
and ''they spoiled the Egyptians.
37 1^ And ^ the children of Israel
journeyed from '^Rameses to Suc-
coth, about " six hundred thousand
on foot that were men, beside chil-
dren,
38 And ^ a mixed multitude went
up also with them ; and flocks, and
herds, even very much cattle.
39 And they baked unleavened
cakes of the dough which they
brought forth out of Egypt, for it
was not leavened; because ''they
were thrust out of Egypt, and could
not tarry, neither had they prei^ared
for themselves any victuals.
40 1 Now the sojourning of the
children of Israel, who dwelt in
Egypt, was "^four hundi-ed and
thirty years.
41 And it came to pass at the end
of the four hundred and thirty
years, even the selfsame day it
came to pass, that all ''the hosts
of the Lord went out from the
land of Egypt.
42 It is t'a night to be much ob-
served unto the Lord for bringing
them out from the land of Egypt :

CHAPTEE XIIL
1 The jirsthorn are sanctified to God. 3 The memo-
rial of the passover is commanded. 11 27ie first-
lings of beasts are set apart. 17 The Israelites go
out of Ugypt, and carry Joseph''s bones with them.
20 They come to Etham. 21 God guideth them by
ap)Ular of a cloud, and a pillar of fire.
/i ND the Lord spake unto Moses,
J\. saying,
2 "" Sanctify unto me all the first-
born, whatsoever openeth the womb
among the children of Israel, hoth
of man and of beast : it is mine.
3 1 And Moses said unto the peo-
ple, ^Eemember this day, in which
ye came out from Egypt, out of the
house of ^ bondage ; for ' by strength
of hand the Lord brought you out
fi'om tills place: ^ there shall no
leavened bread be eaten.
4 "^This day came ye out in the
month Abib.
5 *! And it shall be when the
Lord shall Hiring thee into the
land of the Canaanites, and the
Hittites, and the ^Vmorites, and the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, which
a sign unto
he f'sware unto thy fathers to give
thee, a land flowing with milk and
honey, ''that thou shalt keei^ this
service in this month.
G ' Seven days thou shalt eat un-
leavened bread, and in the seventh
day shall he a feast to the Lord.
7 Unleavened bread shall be eat-
en seven days; and there shall ''no
leavened bread be seen with thee,
neither shall there be leaven seen
with thee in all thy quarters.
8 1^ And thou shalt ' shew thy son
in that day, saying. This is done
because of that which the Lord did
unto me when I came forth out of
Egypt.
9 And it shall be for
thee uj)on thine hand, and for a
memorial* between thine eyes, that
the Lord's law may be in thy
mouth: for with a strong hand
hath the Lord brought thee out
of Egypt.
10 "Thou shalt therefore keep
this ordinance in his season liom
year to year.
11 T[ And it shall be when the
Lord shall bring thee into the
land of the Canaanites, as he sware
unto thee and to thy fathers, and
shall give it thee,
12 ° That thou shalt ^ set apart un-
to the Lord all that openeth the
matrix, and every firstling that
Cometh of a beast which thou hast;
the male shall he the Lord's.
13 And p every firstling of an ass
thou shalt redeem with a " lamb ;
and if thou wilt not redeem it, then
thou shalt break his neck ; and all

17 T^ And 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 ivas near; for God
said. Lest peradventure the people
''repent when they see war, and
''they return to Egypt:
18 But God 'led the people about,
through the way of the wilderness
of the Bed sea : and the children
of Israel went up "harnessed out
of the land of Egypt.
19 And Moses took the bones of
Joseph with him : for he had strait-
ly sworn the children of Israel, say-
ing, "" God will surely visit you ; and
ye shall carry up my bones away
hence with you.
20 ^[ And Hhey took their joiu'-
ney from Succoth, and encamped
in Etham, in the edge of the wil-
derness.
21 And 'the Lord went before
them by day in a pillar of a cloud,
to lead them the way; and by
night in a inllar of fire, to give
tliem light ; to go by day and
night.
22 He took not away the pillar
of the cloud by day, nor the pillar
of fire by night, fro7n before the
l^eople.
CHAPTER XIV.
1 God inntritcteth tfie Jsradites in their journey. 5
Pharaoh pui-sueth after them. 10 Tlie Israelites
niurrnur. 13 Moses coinforteth them. 15 God in-
atructeth Moses. 19 The cloud remotieth behind the
camp. 21 The Israelites pass through the Red sea,
23 which drowneth the Egijplians.
A ND the Lord spak(i unto Mo-
XjL ses, saying,
2 Speak unto tlic children of Is-
rael, ''that they turn and encamp
before '' Pi-hahiroth, between "^Mig-
dol and the sea, over against Baal-
zeplion : before it shall ye encamp
by the sea.
3 For Pliaraoh will say of the
(jhildren of Israel, "PlK'y are en-
tangled in the land, the wilderness
hath shut them in.
84
4 And ''I will harden Pharaoh's
heart, that he shall follow after
them ; and I ^ will be honoured ux)-
on Pharaoh, and upon all his host ;
-that the Egyptians may know that
I am the Lord. And they did so.
5 1^ And it was told the king of
Egypt that the i)eoj)le fled: and
^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 Is-
rael go from serving us ?
G And he made ready his chariot,
and took his i)eople with him :
7 And he took 'six huncb-ed
chosen chariots, and all the char-
iots 'of Egypt, and captains over
every one of them.
8 And the Lord ^hardened the
heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt,
and he pursued after the children
of Israel : and ' the chikben of Is-
rael went out with a high hand.
9 But the "Egyptians pursued
after them, all the horses and char-
iots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen,
and his army, and overtook them
encamping by the sea, beside Pi-
hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
10 1 And when Pharaoh drew
nigh, the chikben of Israel lifted
up their eyes, and, behold, the
Egyptians marched after them;
and they were sore afi-aid: and
the children of Israel ''cried out
unto the Lord.
11 °And they said unto Moses,
Because there ii-ere no graves in
Egypt, hast thou taken us away
to die in the wilderness? where-
fore hast thou dealt thus with us,
to carry us forth out of Egypt ?
12 ^Is 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 bet-
ter for us to serve the Egyptians,
than, that we should die in the wil-
derness.
13 ^ And Moses said unto the
X)eople, "Fear ye not, stand still,
and s(H^ the salvation of the Lord,
wliich he will shew to you to day :
"for the Egyptians whom ye have
seen to day, ye shall see them
again no more for ever.

14 'The Lord shall fight for you,
and ye shall 'hold your peace.
15 ^ And the Lord said unto
Moses, AVherefore criest thou luito
me ? speak unto the children of Is-
rael, that they go forward :
16 But 4ift thou u\) thy rod, and
stretch out thine hand over the
sea, and divide it: and the chil-
dren of Israel shall go on dry
ground through the midst of the
sea.
17 And I, behold, I will "harden
the hearts of the Egyptians, and
they shall follow them : and I will
''get me honour upon Pharaoh,
and upon all his host, upon his
chariots, and upon his horsemen.
18 And the Egyptians ^ shall
know that I am the Lord, when
I have gotten me honour upon
Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and
upon his horsemen.
19 1 And the Angel of God,
^ which went before the camp of
Israel, removed and went behind
them ; and the pillar of the c!oud
went from before their face, and
stood behind them :
20 And it came between the
camp of the Egyptians and the
camp of Israel; and ^ it was a
cloud and darkness to them, but it
gave light by night to these: so
that the one came not near the
other all the night.
21 And Moses ''stretched out his
hand over the sea ; and the Lord
caused the sea to go hack by a
strong east wind all that night,
and 'made the sea dry land, and
the waters were '* divided.
22 And ^the children of Israel
went into the midst of the sea
upon the diy ground: and the
waters were ^a wall unto them on
their right hand, and on their
left.
23 1 And the Egyptians pursued,
and went in after them to the
midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's
horses, his chariots, and his horse-
men.
24 And it came to pass, that in
the morning watch ^the Lord
looked unto the host of the Egyp-
tians through the x)ilhii' of fire and
of the cloud, and troubled the host
of the I]gyi)tians,
25 And took off their chariot
wheels, "that they drave them
heavily: so that the Egyptians'
said, Let us flee from the face of
Israel ; for the Lord '' lighteth for
them against the Egyptians.
20 "ii And the Lord said unto
Moses, 'Stretch out thine hand
over the sea, that the waters may
come again upon the Egyptians,
upon their chariots, and upon their
horsemen.
27 And Moses stretc]^ed 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.
28 And "the waters returned,
and "covered the chariots, and
the horsemen, and all the host of
Pharaoh that came into the sea
after them ; there remained not so
much as one of them.
29 But "the children of Israel
walked upon dry land in the midst
of the sea ; and the waters u-ere a
wall unto them on their
hand, and on their left.
30 Thus the Lord p saved Israel
that day out of the hand of the
Egyptians; and Israel "^saw the
Egyptians dead upon the sea
shore.
31 And Israel saw that great
*work which the Lord did upon
the Egyptians: and the people
feared the Lord, and '^beheved the
Lord, and his servant Moses.

went in with his chariots and
with his horsemen into the sea,
and Hhe Lord brought again the
waters of the sea upon them ; but
the children of Israel went on dry
land in the midst of the sea.

^ Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath

CHAPTER XYI.
I The Israelites come to Sin. 2 Tliey murmur for
xuant of bread. 4 God promiscth them bread from
heaven. 11 Quails are sent, 14 and manna. 16
TJte ordering of manna. 25 It was not to be found
on the sabbath. 32 An omer of it is preserved.
AXD they ''took then* joiu'ney
J\_ from Elim, and all tlie eon-
gregation of the children of Israel
came unto the wilderness of ^ Sin,
which is between Elim and Sinai,
on the fifteenth day of the second
month after their departing out of
the land of Egypt.
2 And the whole congregation of
the children of Israel 'murmured
against Moses and Aaron in the
wilderness :
3 And the children of Israel said
unto them, <* Would to God we had
died by the hand of the Lord in
the land of Egypt, 'when we sat
by the flesh pots, and when we did
eat bread to the full ; for ye have
brought us forth into this wilder-
ness, to kill tliis whole assembly
with hunger.
4 ^[ Then said the Loed unto
Moses, Behold, I will rain ^ bread
from heaven for you ; and the ])eo-
ple shall go out and gather ^ a cer-
tain rate every day, that I may
^' prove them, whether they will
walk in my law, or no.
5 And it shall come to pass, that
on the sixth day they shall prepare
tliat which they bring in ; and '' it
shall be twice as much as they
gather daily.
6 And Moses and Aaron said
unto all the children of Israel, ' At
even, then ye shall know that the
Lord hath brought you out from
the land of Egypt :
7 And in the morning, then ye
shall see ''the glory of the Lord ;
for that he heareth yoiu' murmiu'-
ings against the Lord: and ' what
are we, that ye murmiu' against us !
8 And Moses said, This shall he,
when the Lord shall give you in
the
evening
flesh to eat, and in
the morning bread to the full ; for
that the Lord heareth your mur-
inurings which ye murmur against
him : and what are we f your mur-
murings are not against us, but
'"against the Lord.
9 *\\ And Moses spake unto Aa-
ron, Say
unto all the congregation
of the children of Israel, "Come
near before the Lord : for he hath
heard your niurmurings.
10 And it came to pass, as Aaron
spake unto the whole congrega-
tion of the chikh'en of Israel, that
they looked toward the wilderness,
and, behold, the glory of the Lord
"appeared in the cloud.
11 ^[ And the Lord spake unto
Moses, saying,
12 p I have heard the murmurings
of the childi-en of Israel: speak
unto them, saying, "At even ye
shall eat flesh, and 'in the morning
ye shall be filled with bread ; and
ye shall know that I am the Lord
your God.
13 And it came to pass, that at
even 'the quails came up, and
covered the camp : and in the
morning 'the dew lay round about
the host.
14 And when the dew that lay
was gone up, behold, ui)on the
face of the wilderness tliere lay "a
small round thing, as small as the
hoar fi'ost on the ground.
15 And when the children of Is-
rael saw it, they said one to an-
other, I' It is manna : for they Avist
not what it tvas. And Moses said
unto them, ''This is the bread
which the Lord hath given you to
eat.
16 *l This is the thing which the
Lord hath commanded, Gather of
it every man according- to his eat-
ing, 'an omer ^for every man, ac-
cording to the number of yoiu* ^per-
sons ; take ye every man for them
which are in his tents.
17 And the children of Israel did
so, and gathered, some more, some
18 And when they did mete it
with an omer, ''he that gathered
much had nothing over, and he

that gathered little had no lack;
they gathered every man accord-

19 And Moses said, Let no man
leave of it till the morning.
20 Is^otwithstanding they heark-
ened not nnto Moses ; but some
of them left of it until the morn-
ing, and it bred worms, and stank:
and Moses was wroth with them.
21 And they gathered it every
morning, every man according to
his eating: and when the sun wax-
ed hot, it melted.
22 "^ And it came to pass, tliat
on the sixth day they gathered
twice as much bread, two omers
for one man : and all the rulers of
the congregation came and told
Moses.
23 And he said unto them, This
is that which the Lord hath said,
To morrow is ''the rest of the holy
sabbath unto the Lord : bake that
which ye will bake to day, and
seethe that ye will seethe; and
that which remaineth over lay up
for you to be kept until the morn-
ing.
24 And they laid it up till the
morning, as Moses bade: and it
did not ''stink, neither was there
any worm therein.
25 And Moses said. Eat that to
day ; for to day is a sabbath unto
the Lord : to day ye shall not find
it in the field.
20 SSix days je shall gather it;
but on the seventh dav, ivhich is
the sabbath, in it there shall be
n(me.
27 ^\ And it came to pass, that
there went out some of the people
ou the seventh day for to gather,
and they found none.
28 Andthe Lord said unto Moses,
Ifow long ''refuse ye to keei) my
commandments and my laws f
29 See, for that the Lord hath
given you the sabl)atli, therefore
lie givetli you on the sixth day the
bread of two days : abide ye every
man in his place, let no man go
out of his place on the seventh day.
,S0 So the people rested on the
seventh dny.
31 And the house of Israel called
88
the name thereof Manna: and 4t
was like coriander seed, white ; and
the taste of it ivas like wafers made
with honey.
32 1 And Moses said. This is the
thing which the Lord command-
eth, Fill an omer of it to be kept
for your generations ; that they
may see the bread wherewith I
have fed vou in the wilderness,
when I brought you forth from the
land of Egypt.
33 And Moses said unto Aaron,
^ Take a pot, and put an omer full
of manna therein, and lay it up be-
fore the Lord, to be kept for your
generations.
34 As the Lord commanded Mo-
ses, so Aaron laid it up ^ before the
Testimony, to be kept.
35 And the chikben of Israel did
eat manna ^ forty years, ' until they
came to a land inhabited : they did
eat manna, until they came unto
the borders of the land of Canaan.
30 Now an omer is the tenth part
of an ephah.

after their jom'ueys, according to
the commandment of the Lord,
and pitched in Eephidim: and
there was no water for the peoj)le

2 ^ Wherefore the people did chide
with Moses, and said. Give us water
tliat we may di'ink. And IMoses
said unto them. Why chide ye with
me? wherefore do ye 'tempt the
Lord ?
3 And the people thirsted there
for water; and the i^eoxjle ''mur-
mured 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 ?

Lord, saying, \^1lat shall I do

G 'Behold, I Avill stand before
thee there upon the rock in Horeb ;

Moses did so in the sight of the
elders of Israel.
7 And he called the name of the
place ""iiMassah, and "Meribah, be-
cause of the chiding- of the children
of Israel, and because they tempt-
ed the Lord, saying, Is the Lord
among us, or not ?
8 1 'Then came Amalek, and
fought with Israel in Eei^hidim.
9 And 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.
10 So Joshua did as Moses had
said to him, and fought with Ama-
lek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur
went up to the top of the hill.
11 And it came to ijass, when
Moses "held up his hand, that Is-
rael prevailed: and when he let
down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 But Moses' hands ivere 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.
13 And Joshua discomtited Ama-
lek and his peoi)le with the edge
of the sword.
14 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, p 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.
15 And Moses built an altar, and
called the name of it hJehovah-

16 For he said, "Because Uhe
Lord hath sworn that the Lord
ivill have war with Amalek from

1 Jethro hringeth to Mones his ivife and ttvo sons. 7

WHEN ^^ Jethro, the priest of
Midian, Moses' father in law,
heard of all that '^'God had done
for Moses, and for Israel his peo-
ple, and that the Lord had brought
Israel out of Egypt ;
2 Then Jethro, IVIoses' father in
law, took Zipporah, INIoses' wife,
''after he had sent her back,
3 And her '' two sons ; of which
the "name of the one ivas "Ger-
shom ; for he said, I have been an
alien in a strange land :
4 And the name of the other ivas
" Eliezer ; for the God of my father,
said he, was mine help, and deliver-
ed me from the sword of Pharaoh :
5 And Jethro, Moses' father in
law, came with his sons and his
wife unto Moses into the wilder-
ness, where he encamped at Hhe
mount of God :
And he said unto Moses, I thy
father in law Jethro am come unto
thee, and thy wife, and her two
sons with her.
7 ^ And Moses ^went out to meet
his father in law, and did obei-
sance, and '' kissed him ; and they
asked each other of their ^ welfare ;
and they came into the tent.
8 And 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.
9 And Jethro rejoiced for all the
goodness which the Lord had done
to Israel, whom he had delivered
out of the hand of the Egyi^tians.
10 And Jethro said, ''Blessed he
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 Egyi^tians.
11 Now I know that the Lord is

he ivas above them.

riflces for God: and Aaron came,
and all the elders of Israel, to eat
bread with Moses' father in law
"before God.
13 1^ And 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.
14 And when Moses' father in law
saw all that he did to the people,
he said. What is this tiling that
thou doest to the people? Why
sittest thou thyself alone, and all
the people stand by thee from
morning unto even ?
15 And Moses said unto his father
in law. Because ^the i)eople come
unto me to inquire of God :
16 When they have ''a matter,
they come unto me; and I judge
between ^one and another, and I
do '^make t\em know the statutes
of God, and his laws.
17 And Moses' father in I'aw said
unto him. The thing that thou
doest is not good.
18 * Thou wilt siu'ely 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.
19 Hearken 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
may est "^ bring the causes unto God :
20 And thou shalt -teach them
ordinances and laws, and shalt
shew them Hhe way wherein they
must walk, and ''the work that they
must do.
21 Moreover thou shalt provide
out of all the people ''able men,
such as 'fear God, "men of truth,
''hating covetousness ; and place
meli over them, to he rulers of
thousands, and rulers of hmidreds,
rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens :
22 And let them judge the people
^1t all seasons: ^and it shall be,
that every great matter they shall
bring unto thee, liut every small
matter they shall judge: so shall
it be easier for thyself, and ''they
shall bear the harden with thee.
23 K thou shalt do this thing, and
90
God command thee so, then thou
shalt be 'able to endure, and all
this peoi)le shall also go to "" their
place in peace.
24 So Moses hearkened to the
voice of his father in law, and did
all that he had said.
25 And 'Moses chose able men
out of all Israel, and made them
heads over the people, rulers of
thousands, rulers of hmidreds, rul-
ers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
26 And they ""judged the people
at all seasons: the "hard causes
they brought unto Moses, but ev-
ery small matter they judged them-
selves.
27 1 And Moses let his father in
law depart; and ''he went his way
into his own land.

the mount.
IN the third month, when the
children of Israel were gone
forth out of the land of Egypt, the
same day "" came they into the wil-
derness of Sinai.
2 For they were departed from
'' E-epliidim, and were come to the
desert of Sinai, and had i^itched in
the wilderness; and there Israel
camped before Hhe mount.
3 And ''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 ;
4 'Ye have seen what I did unto
the Egyptians, and Iww «I bare
you on eagles' wings, and brought
you unto myself.
5 Now '' therefore, if ye will obey
my voice indeed, and keep my cov-
enant, then ' ye shall be a peculiar
treasure unto me above all people :
for ''all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a
'kingdom of jiriests, and a "'lioly
nation. These are the words wliich
thou shalt speak unto the childi-en
of Israel.

words Avhich the LoiiD commanded
him.
8 And "all the people answered
together, and said, ^VU that the
Lord hath spoken we will do. And
Moses returned the words of the
l^eople unto the Lord.
9 And the Lord said unto Moses,
Lo, I come unto thee "in a thick
cloud, pfhat the people may hear
when I si)eak with thee, and "^ be-
lieve thee for ever. And Moses
told the words of the peoj)le unto
the Lord.
10 1 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, Go unto the people, and ' sanc-
tify them to day and to morrow,
and let them 'wash their clothes,
11 And be ready against the third
day: for the third day the Lord
^ will come down in the sight of all
the people upon mount Sinai.
12 And thou shalt set bounds im-
to the people round about, saying,
Take heed to yoiu-selves, that ye go
not up into the mount, or touch the
border of it: "whosoever tou^cheth
the mount shall be surely put to
death :
13 There shall not a hand touch
it, but he shall surely be stoned, or
shot through; whether it he beast
or man, it shall not live : when the
II "" triunpet soimdeth long, they shall
come up to the mount.
14 1^ And Moses went down from
the mount unto the people, and
^'sanctified the people; and they
washed their clothes.
15 And he said unto the people,
'Be ready against the thbd day:
''come not at your wives.
16 1 And it came to pass on the
third day in the morning, that
there were "thunders and light-
nings, and a 'thick cloud upon
the moimt, ami the Soice of the
trumpet exceecUng loud; so that
all the people that tvas in the
camp Hrembled.
17 And ^ Moses brought forth the
Ijeople out of the camp to meet
with God; and they stood at the
nether part of the mount.
18 And Amount Sinai was alto-
gether on a smoke, because the
Lord descended ui)on it '4n fire:
'and the smoke thereof ascended
as the smoke of a furnace, and
''the whole mount quaked greatly.
19 And 'when the voice of the
trumpet sounded long, and waxed
louder and louder, "'Moses spake,
and "God answered him by a
voice.
20 And the Lord came down up-
on mount Sinai, on the top of the
mount: and the Lord called Mo-
ses up to the top of the mount;
and Moses went up.
21 And the Lord said imto Mo-
ses, Go down, t charge the people,
lest they break through unto the
Lord °to gaze, and many of them
perish.
22 And let the priests also, which
come near to the Lord, ^ sanctify
themselves, lest the Lord "^ break
forth upon them.
23 And Moses said unto the
Lord, The people cannot come up
to mount Sinai : for thou chargedst
us, saying, "^Set bounds about the
mount, and sanctify it.
24 And the Lord said unto him,
Away, get thee down, and thou
shalt come wp, thou, and Aaron
with thee: but let not the priests
and the people break through to
come up unto the Lord, lest he
break forth ui)on them.
25 So Moses went down unto the
l)eoi)le, and spake unto them.

6 And Moses nook half of the
blood, and put it hi basins; and
half of the blood ho sprinkled on
the altar.
7 And he '' took the book of the
covenant, and read in the audience
of the people: and they said, 'All
that the Loud hath said will we
do, and bo obedient.
8 And jVIoses took the blood, and
.;prinkled it on the peo])le, and
said, Behold 'Hhe blood of the cov-
enant, which the Loud hath made
with you concerning all these
words.
9 •[ Then 'went up Moses, and
Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and
so\'euty of the elders of Israel ;
10 And they '" saw the God of Is-
rael : and there was under his feet
as it were a x)aved work of a " sap-
l^liire stone, and as it were the
" body of heaven in his clearness.
11 And upon tlie nobles of the
children of Israel he ""laid not his
hand: also ''they saw God, and
did "^eat and drink.
12 ^ And the Lord said unto
Moses, 'Come up to me into the
mount, and be there : and I will
give thee *tab,les of stone, and a
law, and commandments which I
have written ; that thou mayest
teach them.
13 And Moses rose up, and "his
minister Joshua; and Moses 'went
up into the momit of God.
14 And 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.
15 And Moses went up into the
mount, and ''a cloud covered the
moimt.
16 And ^the glory of the Lord
abode ui)on mount Sinai, and the
cloud covered it six days : and the
seventh day he called unto Moses
out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the sight of the glory of

22 1 Moreover the Lord spake
unto Moses, saying,

^principal spices, of -piiTe ^ myrrh
five huncbed shelcels, and of sweet
cinnamon half so much, even two
hundred and fifty shelels, and of
sweet ^calamus two hundred and
fifty sheliels,
24 And of ^cassia five hundred
shelielSj after the shekel of the
sanctuary, and of oil olive a ""hin :
25 And thou shalt make it an
oil* of holy ointment, an ointment
compound after the art of the
"apothecary: it shaU be ''a holy
anointing oil.
26 ''And thou shaljfc anoint the
tabernacle of the congregation
therewith, and the ark of the tes-
timony,
27 And the table and all his ves-
sels, and the candlestick and his
vessels, and the altar of incense,
28 And the altar of burnt otter-
ing with all his vessels, and the

29 And thou shalt sanctify them,
that they may be most holy : " what-
soever toucheth them shall be holy.
30 *^And thou shalt anoint Aaron

CHAPTER XXXT.
1 Bezalcel and Aholiab are called and made meet for
the work of the tabernacle. 13 The observation of
the sabbath is again commanded. 18 Jloses re-
ceiveth the two tables.
A XD the Lord spake unto Mo-
JLJl ses, saying-,
2 ''See, I have called by name
Bezaleel the ^sou of Uri, the son
of Hur, of the tribe of Judali :
3 And I have '^tilled him with
the sjiirit of God, in wisdom, and
in understanding, and in knowl-
edge, and in all manner of work-
manship,
4 To devise cunning works, to
work in gold, and in silver, and in
brass,
5 And in cutting of stones, to
set tlieiii^ and in tarving of timber,
to work in all manner of work-
manship.
C And I, behold, I have given
with him ''Aholiab, the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan:
and in the hearts of all that are
''wise hearted I have put wisdom,
that they may make all that I
have commanded thee ;
7 ^The tabernacle of the con-
gregation, and ^the ark of the
testimony, and ^the mercy seat
that is thereupon, and all the
^ furniture of the tabernacle,
8 And 'the table and his furni-
ture, and ''the pure candlestick
with all his furniture, and the al-
tar of incense,
9 And 'the altar of burnt offer-
ing with all his furniture, and
""the laver and his foot,
10 And "the clothes of service,
and the holy garments for Aaron
the i>riest, and the garments of his
sons, to minister in the jMest's
oflice,
11 ''And the anointing oil, and
'' sweet incense for the holy lylace :
according to all that I have com-
manded thee shall they do.
12. ^ And the Lord spake unto
Moses, saying,
13 Speak thou also unto the
children of Israel, saying, "Verily
my sabbaths ye shall keep: for
it is a sign between me and you
throughout your generations ; that
ye may know that I am the Lord
that doth sanctify you.
14 'Ye shall keep the sabbath
therefore ; for it is holy unto you.
Every one that defileth it shall
surely be put to death: for 'who-
soever doeth any work therein,
that soul shall bo cut off from
among his people.
15 ' Six days may work be done ;
but in the "seventh is the sabbath
of rest, ^ holy to the Lord : whoso-
ever doeth any work in the sab-
bath day, he shall surely be i)ut to
death.
16 AVherefore the children of
Israel shall keex) the sabbath, to
observe the sabbath throughout
their generations, for a i)erj)etual
covenant.
17 It is ^Si sign between me and
the cliildren of Israel for ever : for
^in six days the Lord made heav-
en and earth, and on the seventh
day he rested, and was refreshed.
18 ^ And he gave unto Moses,
when he had made an end of com-
muning with him upon mount
Sinai, Hwo tables of testimony,
tables of stone, written with the
finger of God.
CHAPTER XXXII.
1 The people., in the absence of Moses, cause Aaron to

2 And 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 tliem unto me.
3 And all the i^eople brake off
the golden earrings which ii'ere in
their ears, and brought tliem unto
Aaron.
4 ^And he received tliem at their
hand, and fashioned it with a
graving tool, after he had made
it a molten calf: and they said.
These le thy gods, O Israel, which
brought thee up out of the land of
Egypt.
5 And when Aaron saw it, he
built an altar before it; and Aa-
ron made ^proclamation, and said.
To morrow is a feast to the Lord.
6 And they rose up early on the
morrow, and offered burnt offer-
ings, and brought peace offerings ;
and the ^people sat down to eat
and to drink, and rose up to play.
7 ^ And the Lord said unto
Moses, ^ Go, get thee down ; for
thy people, which thou broughtest
out of the land of Egypt, ' have
corrupted themselves :
8 They have turned aside quick-
ly out of the way which '^ I com-
manded them : they have made
them a molten calf, and have
worshipped it, and have sacri-
ficed thereunto, and said, ' These
he thy gods, O Israel, which have
brought thee up out of the land of
Egypt.
9 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, "' I have seen this people, and,
behold, it is a stiffnecked people :
10 Now therefore "let me alone,
that °my wrath may wax hot
against them, and that I may con-
sume them: and "I will make of
thee a great nation.
11 "And Moses besought ^ the
Lord his (iod, and saicl. Lord,
why doth tliy wrath wax hot
against thy people, which thou
hast brouglit forth out of the land
of Egypt witli great power, and
with a mighty hand ?
108
12 ''Wherefore should the Egyp-
tians speak, and say. For mis-
chief did he bring them out, to
slay them in the mountains, and
to consume them from the face
of the earth? Turn from thy
fierce wrath, and 'repent of this
evil against thy people.
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac,
and Israel, thy servants, to whom
thou 'swarest by thine own self,
and saidst unto them, "I will
multiply your seed as the stars
of heaven, and all this land that
I have spoken of will I give unto
your seed, and they shaU inherit it
for ever.
14 And the Lord "^repented of
the e^dl which he thought to do
unto his people.
15 1" And ''Moses turned, and
went down from the mount, and
the two tables of the testimony
were in his hand : the tables icere
written on both their sides; on
the one side and on the other ivere
they written.
16 And the -tables were the work
of God, and the writing was the
writing of God, graven ui)on the
tablas.
17 And when Joshua heard the
noise of the people as they shouted,
he said unto Moses, There is a
noise of war in the camp.
18 And he said. It is not the
voice of them that shout for mas-
tery, neither is it the voice of them
that cry for ♦being overcome; hut
the noise of them that sing do I hear.
19 'Tf And it came to j)ass, 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.
20 "And he took the calf which
they had made, and burnt it in
the fire, and ground it to ])owder,
and strewed it upon the water, and
made the children of Israel drink
of it.
21 And Moses said unto Aaron,
MVhat did this i)eople unto thee,
that thou hast brouglit so great a
sin upon them ?

us gods, which shall go before us :

24 And I said unto them, A\Tio-

there ''came out this calf.

gathered themselves together unto
him.
27 And he said unto them. Thus
saith the Lord God of Israel, Put
every man his sword by his side,
and £-0 in and out from fi-ate to
gate throughout the camp, and
'' slay every man his brother, and
every man his companion, and
every man his neighbour.
28 And the children of Levi did
according to the word of Moses :
and there fell of the people that
day about three thousand men.
29 ' I' For Moses had said, ^ Conse-
crate yourselves to day to the
Lord, even every man upon his
son, and ux)on his brother ; that he
may bestow upon you a blessing
this day.
30 ^\ And it came to pass on the
morrow, that Moses said unto the
I)eople, ''Ye have sinned a great
sin : and now I will go up unto the
Lord ; ' peradventurel shall "'make
an atonement for your sin.
31 And Moses "returned unto the
Lord, and said, Oh, this people
have sinned a great sin, and have
"made them gods of gold.
32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive
their sin — ; and if not, ^blot me, I
pray thee, '^ out of thy book which
thou hast written.
33 And the Lord said unto
Moses, 'Whosoever hath sinned
against me, him will I blot out of
my book.
34 Therefore now go, lead the
l)eople unto the place of which I
have spoken unto thee: 'behold,
mine Angel shall go before thee:
nevertheless, 4n the day when I
visit, I will visit their sin upon
them.
35 And the Lord plagued the
people, because "they made the
calf, which Aaron made.
CHAPTER XXXIIL
1 TJie Lord refitseth to go as he hacl promised rvith t?ie
peojjJe. 4 The 2Xople murmur thereat. 7 IVic tab-
ernacle is removed out of the camjy. 9 The Lord
talketh familiarlij with Moses. 12 Moses desireth to
sec the glory of God.
A XD the Lord said unto Moses,
jl\_ Depart, ,and go up hence,
thou ^and the i^eople wliich thou
hast brought up out of the land of
Egypt, unto the land which I sware
unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob, saying, ^ Unto thy seed will
I give it :
2 ''And I will send an Angel be-
fore thee ; ''and I will drive out the
Canaanite, the Amorite, and the
Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hi-
vite, and the Jebusite :
3 " Unto a land flowing with milk
and honey: 'for I will not go up
in the midst of thee ; for thou art a
*^stiffnecked people: lest ''I con-
sume thee in the way.
4 ^ And when the people heard
these evil tidings, ' they mourned :
â– "and no man did i)ut on him his
ornaments.
5 For the Lord had said unto
Moses, Say unto the children of
Israel, ' Ye are a stiffuecked people:
I will come vqy "'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.
And the children of Israel
stripped themselves of their orna-
ments by the mount Horeb.

and pitched it without the camp,
afar off from the camp, "and called
it the Tabernacle of the congrega-
tion. And it came to pass, tliat

cloudy pillar descended, and stood
at the door of the tabernacle, and
the Lord 'talked with Moses.
10 And all the people saw the
cloudy i^illar stand at the taberna-
cle door : and all the people rose
up and 'worshipped, every man in
his tent door.
11 And *the Lord spake unto
Moses face to face, as a man speak-
eth unto his friend. And he turned
again into the camp ; but "his serv-
ant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young-
man, departed not out of the taber-
nacle.
12 ^ And Moses said unto the
Lord, See, ^thou sayest unto me.
Bring up this people: and thou
hast not let me know whom thou
wilt send with me. Yet thou hast
said, ''I know thee by name, and
thou hast also found gTace in irj
sight.
13 ]^ow therefore, I pray thee,
4f I have found grace in thy sight,
"" shew me now thy way, that I may
know thee, that I may find grace
in thy sight : and consider that this
nation is ^ thy people.
14 And he said, °My presence
shall go ivith thee, and I will give
thee "^rest.
15 And he said unto him, "If thy
presence go not ivith me, carry us
not up hence.
IG For wherein shall it be known
here that I and thy people have
found grace in thy sight? Us it
not in that thou goest with us I
So ^' shall we ])e separated, I and
thy people, from all the people
that are ui)on the face of the earth.
17 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, *'I will do this thing also that
thou hast spoken : for ' thou hast
110
found grace in my sight, and I
know thee by name.
18 And he said, I beseech thee,
shew me ''thy glory.
19 And he said, ' I will make all
my goodness pass before thee, and
I will x)roclaim the name of the
Lord before thee; "and will be
"gracious to whom I will be gTa-
cious, and will shew mercy on
whom I will shew mercy.
20 And he said. Thou canst not
see my face: for "there shall no
man see me, and live.
21 And the Lord said, Behold,
there is a place by me, and thou
shalt stand upon a rock :
22 And it shall come to pass,
while my glory passeth by, that I
will x>ut thee ^ in a cleft of the rock,
and will "^ cover thee with my hand
while I pass by :
23 And I will take away mine
hand, and thou shalt see my back
l^arts; but my face shall ^not be
seen.
CHAPTEE XXXIV.
1 IVie tables are renewed. 5 The name of tJie Lord
proclaimed. 8 Moses entreateth God to f/o with
them. 10 God maketh a covenant with them, re-
peating certain duties of the first table. 28 Moses
after forty days in the mount cometh down with the
tables. 29 Mis face shineth, and he covereth it with
a vail.
A XD the Lord said unto Moses,
JTA. ^ Hew thee two tables of stone
like unto the first: "and I will write
upon these tables the words that
were in the first tables, which thou
brakest.
2 And be ready in the morning,
and come up in the morning unto
and present thyself
''in the top of the
mount Sinai,
me
there to
mount.
3 And no man shall ''come up
with thee, neither let any man be
seen throughout all the mount;
neither let the flocks nor herds
feed before that mount.
4 1 And he hewed two tables of
stone like unto the first ; and Mo-
ses rose up early in the morning,
and went up unto mount Sinai, as
the Lord had commanded him,
and took in liis hand the two ta-
bles of stone.
5 And the Lord descended in the
cloud, and stood with him there,

Lord.
G And the Lord passed by before
him, and proclaimed, The Lord,
The Lord ^God, merciful and gra-
cious, longsutfering-, and abundant
in ^goodness and "truth,
7 ' Keeping mercy for thousands,
''forgi\ing iniquity and transgres-
sion and sin, and ' that will by no
means clear the guilty ; visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the
children, and upon the children's
children, unto the third and to the
foiu'th f/ene ration.
8 And Moses made haste, and
""bowed his head toward the earth,
and worshipped.
9 And he said, If now I have
found grace in thy sight, O Lord,
"let my Lord, I pray thee, go
among us; for "it is a stiflf'necked
peoj)le; and pardon our iniquity
and our sin, and take us for ^^ thine
inheritance.
10 1 And he said, Behold, "I
make a covenant; before all thy
people I will 'do marvels, such as
have not been done in all the
earth, nor in any nation : and all
the people among which thou art
shall see the work of the Lord:
for it is ^a terrible thing that I
will do with thee.
11 * Observe thou that which I
command thee this day: behold,
"I drive out before thee the Amo-
rite, and the Canaanite, and the
Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the
Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 ^Take heed to thyself, lest
thou make a covenant with the
inhabitants of the land whither
thou goest, lest it be for ^ a snare
in the midst of thee :
13 But ye shall 'destroy their al-
tars, break their + images, and " cut
down their groves :
14 For thou shalt worship ^no
other god: for the Lord, whose
''name is Jealous, is a ''jealous God.
15 *Lest thou make a covenant
with the inhabitants of the land,
and they *^go a whoring after their
gods, and do sacrifice unto their
gods, and one '^call thee, and thou
^ eat of his sacrifice ;
16 And thou take of ' their daugh-
ters unto thy sons, and their
daughters ''go a whoring after
their gods, and make thy sons go
a whoring after their gods.
1 7 ' Tliou shalt make thee no
molten gods.
18 i The feast of "" unleavened
bread shalt thou keep. Seven
da}s thou shalt eat unleavened
bread, as I commanded thee, in
the time of the month Abib : for
in the "month Abib thou camest
out from Egyj)t.
10 "All that openeth the matrix
is mine ; and every firstling among
thy cattle, whether ox or sheep,
that is male.
20 But ''the* firstling of fln ass
thou shalt redeem with a " lamb :
and if thou redeem Mm not, then
shalt thou break his neck. All
the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt
redeem. And none shall appear
before me '^ empty.
21 ^ 'Six days thou shalt work,
but on the seventh day thou shalt
rest : in earing time and in harvest
thou shalt rest.>
22 ^ 'And thou shalt observe the
feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of
wheat harvest, and the feast of in-
gathering at the ^ vear's end.
23 1 ' Thrice in the year shall all
your men children appear before
the Lord God, the God of Israel.
24 For I will "cast out the na-
tions before thee, and ^enlarge
thy borders: ^neither shall any
man desire thy land, when thou
shalt go up to appear before the
Lord thy God thrice in the year.
25 'Thou shalt not offer the
blood of my sacrifice with leaven ;
* neither shall the sacrifice of the
feast of the passover be left unto
the morning.
2G ^'The first of the firstfmits of
thy land thou shalt bring unto the
house of the Lord thy God. ' Thou
shalt not seethe a kid in his moth-
er's milk.
27 And the Lord said unto Mo-
ses, AVrite thou "^ these words : for
after the tenor of these words I
have made a covenant with thee
and with Israel.

28 '^Aiid he was there with the
Lord forty days and forty nights ;
he did neither eat bread, nor drink
water. And ^He wrote upon the
tables the words of the covenant,

29 ^i And it came to pass, when
Moses came down from mount Si-
