in them, and made the white appear
which was in the rods.

38 And he fet the rods which he
had pilled before the flocks in the
gutters in the watering - trough-,
when the flocks came to drink, *h*t
they fliould conceive when they came
to drink.

39 And the flocks conceived before
the rods, and brought fort h cattle ring-
ftraked, fpeckled, and fpotted.

40 And Jacob did feparate the lambs,
and fet the faces of the flocks toward
the ring-ftraked and all the brown
in the flock of Laban; and he put his
own flocks by themfelves, and put
them not unto Labans cattle.

41 And it came to pafs, whenfoever
the ftronger cattle did conceive, that
Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of
the cattle in the gutters, that they
might conceive among the rods.

42 But when the cattle were feeble
he put them not in : lb the feebler were
Labans, and the ftronger Jacobs.

bare all the cattle ring-ltraked.

Now Jacob had pitched his tenr. in the

found them not. Then went he out of
Leahs tent, and entered into Rachels

In my dream, behold, a vine was be-
fore me.

10 And in the vine were three
branches : and it was as though it
budded, and her blolfoms mot forth ;
and the cluiters thereof brought forth
ripe grapes.

i i And Pharaohs cup was in my
hand : and I took the grapes, and
preifed them into Pharaohs cup, and
I gave the cup into Pharaohs hand.

12 And Jofeph faid unto him, This
is the interpretation of it : The three
branches are three days :

13 Yet within three days fhall Pha-

thee unto thy place : and thou fhalt

1 7 And Pharaoh faid unto Jofeph,
In my dream, behold, I itood upon
the bank of the river.

1 8 And, behold, there came up out
of the river feven kine, fat - Hefhed
and well-favoured.; and they fed in
a meadow :

1 9 And, behold, (even other kine
came up after them, poor, and very
ill-favoured, and lean-Hefhed, fuch
as I never faw in all the land of
Egypt for badnefs.

20 And the lean and the ill-fa-
voured kine did tat up the firlt fe-
ven fat kine.

2 1 And when they had f e2ten
them up, it could not be known that
they had eaten them ; but they were
(till ill-favoured, as at the beginning.
So I awoke.

22 And I faw in my dream, and,
behold, feven ears came up in one
(talk, full and good.

23 And, behoid, feven ears jj wi-
thered, thin, and Mailed with the

y<tfeph interpreteth them.

24 And the thin ears devoured the **m
feven good ears. And I told this un- £g
to the rmgicians ; but there was none ' — "~
that could declare it to me.

2i *l And Jofeph laid unto Pha-
raon, The dream of Pharaoh is one :
God hath (hewed Pharaoh what he
is about to do.

26 The feven good kine are feven
years ; and the feven good ears at e
feven years : the dream is one.

27 And the foven thin and ill-fa-
voured kine that came up after them
are feven years; and the feven empty
ears blafted with the ealt wind f ha 11
be f feven years of famine. {, 2 *'■»

28 This it the thing which I have
fpoken unto Pharaoh : what God is
about to do heffiewethunto Pharaoh.

29 Behold, there come feven years
of great plenty throughout all the
land or Egypt.

3d And there mall arife after them
feven years of famine ; and all the
pleaty (hall be forgotten in the land
of Egypt , and the famine {ball con-
fume the land :

3r And the plenty (hall not be
known in the land, by reafon of that
famine following ; for izjliall be very
f grievous. ' f nw>i

32 And for that the dream was *"*
doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is
becaufe the thing is \\ eftablilhed by ' -•
God, and God will lhortly bring it

to pafs.

33 Now, therefore, let Pharaoh
look out a man difcreet and wife,
and fet him over the land of Egypt.

34 Let Pharaoh do t'l/s, and let him
appoint || officers over the land, and I <*
take up the fifth part of the land of
Egypt in the feven plenteous years.

35 And let them gather all the
food of thofe good years that come,
and lay up corn under the hand of
Pharaoh, and let them keep food in
the cities.

36 And that food (hall be for (tore
to the land againlt the feven years
of famine, which (hall be in the land

of Egypt ; that the land f perilh not L'/fui^.
through the famine.

37 f And the thing was good in
the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes
of all his Servants.

vants, Can we find fitch a out as this is,

a man 8 in whom the Spirit of Odd is ? "."-. '."

45 And Pharaoh called Jofephs

gave him to wife Afenath, the daugh-
ter of Poti-pherah || prieftof On. And
Jofeph went out over all the land of
Egypt.

46 *j (And jofeph was thirty years

from the prefence of Pharaoh, and
went throughout all the land of

47 And in the feven plenteous years
the earth brought forth by handfuls.

4H And he gathered up all the food
of the feven years, which were in the
land of Egypt, and hud up the food
in the cities: the food of the field
which was round about every city
laid he up in the fame.

49 And Jofeph gathered corn as
the fand of the fea, very much, until
he left numbering : for it was with-
out number.

50 \ m And unto Jofeph were born
two fons before the years of famine
came ; which Afenath, the daughter

called he || Ephraim : for God hath

cot thought to fee thy face ; add, lo,
God hath i'newed me alfo thy feed.

12 And jofeph brought them out
from between his knees, and he bow-
ed himfelf with his face to the earth.

13 And Jofeph took them both,
Ephraim in his right hand toward
Ifraels left hand, and Manafleh in his
left hand toward Ifraels right hand,
and brought them near unto him.

14 And Ifrael ftretched out hisright
hand, and laid //upon Ephraims head,
who was the younger, and his left
hand upon Muuaflehs head, guiding
his hands wittingly ; for Manajieh
was the firft-born.

Abraham and Ifaac did walk, the

me from all evil, blefs the lads ; and
let myname be named on them, and

17 And when Jofeph faw that his
father laid h«s right hand upon the
head of Ephraim it difpleafed him :
and he held up his fathers hand, to
remove it from Ephraims head unto
Manaflehs head.

18 And Jofeph faid unto his father,
Not fo, my father : for this is the firtt-
born ; put thy right hand upon his

7 And Pharaoh fent, and, behold,

Pharaoh was hardened, and he did

not let the people go.

Mofes fprinkle it toward the heaven

1 1 And the magicians could not

Knoweft thou not yet that Egypt is

8 And Mofes and Aaron were

9 And Mofes faid, We will go with

13 And Mofes ftretched forth his

that ye will feethe ; and that which
remaineth over lay up for you, to be
kept until the morning.

24 And they laid it up till the
morning, as Mofes bade ; and it did
not ftink, neither was there any worm
therein.

25 And Mofes faid, Eat that to-
day ; for to-day is a fabbath unto the
Lord : to-day ye lhall not find it in
the held.

26 Six days ye fhall gather it ; but
on the feventh day, wliich is the fab-
bath, in it there lhall be none.

27 K And it came to pafs, that
there went ant-fame of the people
on the feventh day tor to gather, and
they found none.

28 And the Lord faid unto Mo-
fes, How long refnfe ye to keep my
commandments and my laws ?

29 See, for that the Lord hath
given you the fabbath, therefore
he giveth you on the lixth day
the bread of two days : abide ye
every man in his place ; let no man
go out of his place on the feventh

30 So the people refted on the fe-

31 And the houfe of Ifrael called
the name thereof Manna: and P -U{*
was like coriander-feed, white ; and
the talle of it was like wafers made

thing which the Lord command-
ed!, Fill an omer of it to be kept
for your generations ; that they may
fee the bread wherewith 1 have
fed you in the wildernefs, when I
brought you forth from the land of

34 As the Lord commanded Mo-

ANd A all the congregation ot' the
children of Ifrael journeyed from
the wildernefs of Sin, after their jour-

of the Lord, and pitched in Rcphi-
dim ; and there was no water for the
people to drink.

2 b Wherefore the people did chide
with Mofes, artd faid, Give us water,
that we may drink. And Mofes faid
unto them, Why chide ye with me ?
wherefore do ye c tempt the Lord ?

5 And the people thiiited there for
water ; and the people murmured
ngainlt Mofes, and laid, Wherefore
is this that thou haft brought us up
out of Egypt to kill us, and our chil-

4 And iofes cried unto the Lord,
laying. What fhail I do unto this
people ? they be aimed ready to ftone

5 And the Lord faid unto Mcfes,
Go on before the people, and take

thy rod wherewith a thou fmoteft the
river, take in thine hand, and go.

6 c Behold, Iwillftand before thee

thou Ihalt finite the rock, and there

; mall come water out of it, that the

fought with Ifrael in Rephidim.

9 And Mofes faid unto ''Jofhua,
Choofe us out men, and go out, fight
with Amalek : to- morrow I will Itand
on the top of the hill, with ' the rod
of God in mine hand.

10 So Joihua did as Mofes had faid
to him, and fought with Amalek:
and Mofes, Aaron, and Hur, went
up to the top of the hill.

t r And it came to pafs, when Mofes
held up his hand, that Ifrael prevail-
ed ; and when he let down his hand,
Amalek prevailed.

1 2 But Mofes hands were heavy ;
and they took a ftone, and put it un-
der him, and he fat thereon : and
Aaron and Hur Hayed up his hands,
the one on the one Side, and the other

on the other fide ; and his hands were
Heady until the going down of the fun.
r^ And Joihua difcomfited Amalek
and his people with the edge of the
fword.

14 If And theLoRDfkiduntoMofes,
Write this for a memorial in a book,
and rehearfe it in the ears of Joihua;
for k I will utterly put out the re-
membrance of Amalek from under

1 5 And Mofes built an akar, and call-

16 For he faid, || Becaufe f the

JL liab, and every wife-hearted
man, in whom the Lord put wif-
dom and understanding, to know
how to work all manner of work for
the fervice of the fanctuary, accord-
ing to all that the Lord had com-
manded.

2 And Mofes called Bezaleel and
Aholiab, and every wife- hearted man,
in whofe heart the Lord had put
wifdom, even every one whofe heart
fKrred him up to come unto the work
to do it :

3 And they received of Mofes all
the offering which the children of
Ifrael had brought for the work of
the fervice of the fanctuary, to make
it withal. .And they brought yet unto
him free -offerings every morning.

4 t And all the wife men,- that
wrought all the work of the fanc-
tuary, came every man from his work
which they made ;

5 And they (pake unto Mofes, fay-
ing, The people bring much more
than enough for the fervice of the
work which the Lord commanded
to make.

6 And Mofes gave commandment,
and they caufed it to be proclaimed
throughout the camp, faying, Let
neither man nor woman make any
more work for the offering of the
fancluary. So the people were re-
ftrained from bringing.

7 For the ftuff they had was fufn-
cient for all the work to make it, and
too much.

1 The inconvenience of the inheritance

\ tying in 'heir ozun tribes.

ANd the chief fathers of the fami-
lies of the "children of Gilead,
the fon of Machir, the fon of Manaf-

fathers of the children of Ifrael ;

3 And if they be married to any of
the fons of the other tribes of the chil-
dren of Ifrael, then fhall their inherit-
ance be taken from the inheritance
(if otir fathers, and fhall be put to the
inheritance of the tribe f whereunto
they are received : fo fhall it be taken
from the lot of our inheritance.

5-TT And Mofes commanded the chil-
dren of Ifrael, according to the word
of the Lord, faying, The tribe of the
fons of Jofeph hath faid well.

6 This is the thing Which the Lord
doth command concerning the daugh-
ters of Zelophehad, faying, Let them

f marry to whom they think belt ; i, 1 ™;,.
c only to the family of the tribe of c Ton. i.* 9 j
their father fhall they marry :

7 So fhall not the inheritance of
the children of Ifrael remove from
tribe to tribe ; for everv one of the
children of Ifrael fhall f keep himfelf ',"■''- •- '
to the inheritance of the tribe of his '"'' u '-'
fathers.

' 8 And f every daughter that pof- ^
fefieth an inheritance in any tribe of
the children of Ifrael fhall be wife
unto one of the family of the tribe of
her father, that the children of Ifrael
may enjoy every man the inheritance
of his fathers.

9 Neither fhall the inheritance re-
move from one tribe to' another 1 tribe - ;
but every one of the tribes of the
children of Ifrael fhall keep himfeif
to his own inheritance.

10 Even as the Lord commanded
Mofes, fo did the daughters of Zelo-
phehad :

12 And they were married f into ;
the families of the fons of Manaifeh ,"
the fon of Jofeph ; and their inherit-
ance remained in the tribe of the
family of their father.

13 Thefe are the c6mmandment;

commanded, by the hand of Mofes,

great and terrible wildernefs, which s * s °'
ye faw by the way of the mountain

20 And I faid unto you, Ye are

31 And in the wildernefs, where
thou halt feen how that the Lord
thy God e bare thee, as a man doth
bear his fou, in all the way that ye
went, until ye came into this place.

32 \ et in this thing ye did not be-
lieve the Lord your God,

33 r Who went in the way before
you, c to fearch you out a place to
pitch your tents fn, in tire by night,
to (hew you by what way ye fhould
go, and in a cloud by day.

34 And the Lord heard the voice
of your words, and was wroth, h and
fware, faying,

35 ' Surely there fhall not one of
thefe men of this evil generation fee
that good land, which I fware to give
unto your fathers,

36 ''Save Caleb the fon of Jephun-
neh ; he (hall fee it, and to him will
I give the land that he hath trodden
upon, and to his children, becaufe
'hehathf wholly followed the Lord.

37 m Alfo the Lord was angry with
me for your fakes, faying, Thou alfo
malt not go in thither.

38 But Jofhua the fon of Nun,
which ftandeth before thee, he (hall
go in thither : encourage him ; for
he (hall caufe Ifrael to inherit it.

39 " Moreover, your little ones,
which ye faid mould be a prey, and
your children, which in that day °had
no knowledge between good and evil,
they lhall go in thither, and unto
them will I give it, and they mall
poffefs it.

40 p But as for you, turn ye, and
take your journey into the wildernefs,

41 Then ye anfwered, and faid
unto me, q We have finned againft
the Lord, we will go up and tight,
according to all that the Lord our
God commanded us. And when ye
had girded on every man his weapons
of war, ve were ready to go up into
the hill.

42 And the Lord faid unto me,
Say unto them, ( 'Go not up, neither
tight ; for I am not among you ; left
ye be fmitten before your enemies.

43 So I fpake unto you, and ye
would not hear, but rebelled againit
the commandment of the Lord, and
f went prefumptuoufly up into the
hill.

44 s And the Amorites, which dwelt
in that mountain, came out againit
you, and chafed you, c as bees do,
alid deftroyed .you in Seir, eren unto

45 And ye returned, and wept be- gggj*
fore the Lord ; but the Lord would «4si» M
not hearken to your voice, nor give v
ear unto you.

46 u So ye abode in Kadefh many ° *'■£*•
days, according uato the days that

ye abode there.

CHAP. II.

1 The ftory is continued touching the
Edomites, 9 the Moabites, 17 the

THen we turned, and took our
journey into the wildernefs, by

fpake unto me: and we compaiTed cna^i^c.
mount Seir many days.

2 And the Lord fpake unto me,

4 And command thou the people,
faying, c Ye are to pafs through the ££ u 2j"
coaft of your brethren the children of
Efau, which dwell in Seir, and they
thall be afraid of you : take ye good
heed unto yourfelves therefore.

5 Meddle not with them ; for I

will not give you of their land, f no, £5i».«*
not fo much as a foot-breadth ; d be- \ r "j£ s jf

money, that ye may eat ; and ye

(hall alfo buy water of them for mo-

7 For the Lord thy God hath blefs-
ed thee in all the works of thy hand ;

great wildernefs : e thefe forty years eChapS,i *
the Lord thy God hath been with

8 'And when we pafTed by from our [{*?§,
brethren the children of Efau, which
dwelt in Seir, through the way of the
plain from Elath, and from Ezion-
gaber, we turned, and palfed by the
way of the wildernefs of Moab.

9 And the Lord faid unto me,

14 And the fpace in which we

were come over the brook Zered,
was thirty and eight years ; until all
the generation of the men of war
were wafted out from among the hoft,
"as the Lord fware unto them.

15 For indeed the hand of the
Lord was againft them, to deftroy
them from among the hoft, until
they were confumed.

the men cf war were confumed and
dead from among the people,

18 Thou art to pafs over through

19 And whqn thou comeft nigh over

ftrefs them not, nor meddle with
them : for I will not give thee of the
land of the children of Ammon any
polio fiion ; becaufe I have given it unto
F the children of Lot/or a poifeflion.

20 (That alfo was accounted a
land of giants : giants dwelt therein
fri old time, and the Ammonites call

1 them q Zamzummims ;

21 A people great, and many, and
tall as the Anakims ; but the Lord
cieftroyed them before them, and

7 li And Mofes called unto Jofhua,

12 Gather the people together, * "
men, and women, and children, and
thy ftranger that is within thy gates,
that they may hear, and that they
may learn, and fear the Loud your
God, and obferve to do all the words

of this law;

13 And that their children, which
have not known any thing, may hear,
and learn to fear the Lord your God,
as long as ye live in the land whither
ye go over Jordan to poffefs it.

1 4l[And the Lord faid unto Mofes,
Behold, thy days approach that thou
muft die s call Jolhua, and prefent
yourfelves in the tabernacle of the
congregation, that m I may give him ™-*T^'
a charge. And Mofes and Jofliua went,
and prefented themfelves in the ta-
bernacle of the congregation.

15 And "the Lord appeared in "3! % £'
the tabernacle in a pillar of a cloud :

and the pillar of the cloud flood over
the door of the tabernacle.

16 Tf And the Lord faid unto
Mofes, Behold, thou fhalt ffleep with / V'^ n .
thy fathers; and this people will rife ; s ;;"•
up, and go a whoring after the gods '

of the ftrangers of the land whither
they go to be among them, and will
forfake me, and break my covenant
which I have made with them.

17 Then my anger fliall be kindled

come upon us, becaufe our God is not

18 And I will furely hide my face
in that day, for all the evils which
they fhall have wrought, in that they
are turned unto other gods.

22 *j Mofes, therefore, wrote this

24 *\ And it crime to pafs, when
Mofes had made an end of writing
the words of this law in a book, until
they were finifhed,

25 That Mofes commanded the
Levites, which bare the ark of the
covenant of the Lord, faying,

26 Take this book of the law, ' and
put it in the- fide or' the ark of the co-
venant of the Lord ycur God, that it

27 u For I know thy rebellion, and
thy ftiffneck : behold, while I am yet

much more after my death ?

28 Gather unto me all the elders
of your tribes, and your officers, that
I w.uy fpeak thefe words in their ears,
*and call heaven and earth to record

29 y For I know that after my death
ye will utterly corrupt your/ekes,
and turn afide from the way which
I have commanded you ; and evil will
befall you z in the latter days; becaufe
ye will do evil in the fight of the Lord,
to provoke him to anger through the
work of your hands.

30 And Mofes fpake in the ears
of all the congregation oflfrael the
words of this long, until they were
ended.

1 2 Therefore the children of Ifrael

Ifrael, as it is written ill the 'hook of

up any iron ; and they'oifered thereon
burnt-offerings unto the Lord, and
facriticed peace-offerings.
