2 And these are the names of Aaron’s sons: Nadab the firstborn, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
3 These are the names of Aaron’s sons, anointed priests, whom he consecrated to serve as priests.
4 But Nadab and Abihu died before Jehovah when they offered strange fire before Jehovah in the wilderness of Sinai; and they had no children; and Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests before Aaron his father.

6 Bring the tribe of Levi near, and make them stand before Aaron the priest, that they may serve him,
7 and carry out his charge, and the charge of the whole congregation before the tabernacle. of gathering to serve in the ministry of the tabernacle;
8 and keep all the utensils of the tabernacle of the congregation, and everything entrusted to them by the children of Israel, and minister in the service of the tabernacle.
9 And you will give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; They are entirely given to him from among the children of Israel.
10 And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons to serve as priests; and the stranger who approaches will die.
11 Furthermore Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
12 Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel in place of all the firstborn, the first born among the children of Israel; So the Levites will be mine.
13 For every firstborn is mine; From the day that I put to death all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified for myself all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast; They will be mine. I am Jehovah.
14 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, saying,
15 Number the sons of Levi according to the houses of their fathers, by their families; You will count all the males from one month old and up.

28 The number of all the males from one month old and upward was eight thousand six hundred, who had the charge of the sanctuary.
29 The families of the sons of Kohath will camp beside the tabernacle on the south;
30 and the leader of the clan of the families of Kohath, Elizaphan the son of Uzziel.
31 In charge of them will be the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, the utensils of the sanctuary with which they minister, and the veil with all its service.
32 And the chief of the leaders of the Levites will be Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, chief of those who keep the sanctuary.
33 Of Merari was the family of the Mahlites and the family of the Musites; These are the families of Merari.

37 and the pillars around the court, their bases, their stakes and their ropes.
38 Those who will camp before the tabernacle on the east, before the tabernacle of the congregation on the east, will be Moses and Aaron and their sons, having the charge of the sanctuary in place of the children of Israel; and the stranger who approaches will die.
39 All those who were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron numbered by their families according to the word of the Lord, all the males from one month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
40 And Jehovah said to Moses, Number all the firstborn males of the children of Israel from one month old and upward, and number them by name.
41 And you shall take the Levites for me instead of all the firstborn of the children of Israel, and the animals of the Levites instead of all the firstborn of the animals of the children of Israel. I am Jehovah.
42 Moses counted, as Jehovah commanded him, all the firstborn of the children of Israel.
43 And all the firstborn males, according to the number of their names, from one month old and upward, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.
44 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
45 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn of the children of Israel, and the animals of the Levites instead of their animals; and the Levites will be mine. I am Jehovah.
46 And for the ransom of the two hundred and seventy-three of the firstborn of the children of Israel, who exceed the Levites,
47 you shall take five shekels per head; according to the shekel of the sanctuary you shall take them. The shekel has twenty geras.
48 And you will give to Aaron and his sons the ransom money for those who are surplus.
49 So Moses took the ransom money from those who exceeded the number of those redeemed by the Levites,
50 and he received from the firstborn of the children of Israel, in money, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. .
51 And Moses gave the ransom money to Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of Jehovah, according to what Jehovah had commanded Moses.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
2 Take the number of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their families, according to the house of their fathers,
3 from thirty years old up to fifty years old, all who enter in company to serve in the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 The office of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation, in the most holy place, will be this:
5 When the camp is moved, Aaron and his sons will come and take down the veil of the tent, and will cover the ark of the tent with it. testimony;
6 And they will put the covering of badgers’ skins on it, and they will spread a cloth all of blue over it, and they will put their poles on it.
7 They will spread a blue cloth on the shew table, and place bowls, spoons, cups, and drinking bowls on it; and the continual bread will be upon it.
8 And they will spread a crimson cloth over it, and cover it with a covering of badgers’ skins; and they will put their rods on it.
9 They will take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand, its lamps, its snuffers, its saucers, and all its utensils with the oil with which it is served;
10 And they will put it with all its utensils in a covering of badgers’ skins, and they will place it on stretchers.
11 They will spread a blue cloth over the golden altar, and cover it with badger skins, and put their staffs on it.
12 And they will take all the utensils of the service that they use in the sanctuary, and they will put them in a blue cloth, and they will cover them with a covering of badgers’ skins, and they will place them on stretchers.
13 They will remove the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth over it;
14 and they will place on it all its instruments: the trowels, the hooks, the braziers and the bowls, all the utensils of the altar; and they will spread the covering of badger skins over it, and they will also put the poles on it;
15 And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all the articles of the sanctuary, when the camp is to be moved, the sons of Kohath will come after that to carry them; but they will not touch anything holy, lest they die. These will be the burdens of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
16 But Eleazar son of Aaron the priest will be in charge of the oil for lighting, the fragrant incense, the continual offering, and the anointing oil; the charge of the entire tabernacle and of everything that is in it, of the sanctuary and of its utensils.
17 Jehovah also spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
18You will not cause the tribe of the families of Kohath from among the Levites to perish.
19 So that when they approach the most holy place they may live and not die, you will do this to them: Aaron and his sons will come and place each of them in his office and in his charge.
20 They will not enter to see when they cover the holy things, because they will die.
21 Furthermore Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
22 Take also the number of the sons of Gershom according to the houses of his fathers, according to his families.
23 From thirty years old and up to fifty years old you will count them; all who enter in company to serve in the tabernacle of the congregation.
24 This will be the office of the families of Gershom, to minister and to carry:
25 They will carry the curtains of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the congregation, its covering, the covering of badgers’ skins that is over it, the curtain of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
26 the curtains of the court, the curtain of the door of the court, which is near the tabernacle and near the altar all around, its cords, and all the instruments of its service and everything that will be made for them; so they will serve.
27 According to the order of Aaron and his sons, all the ministry of the sons of Gershom will be in all their offices, and in all their service; and you will entrust to them all his charges.
28 This is the service of the families of the sons of Gershom in the tabernacle of the congregation; and their charge will be under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
29 You will number the children of Merari by their families, according to the houses of their fathers.
30 From the age of thirty years and above to the age of fifty you shall number them; all who enter in company to serve in the tabernacle of the congregation.
31 This will be the duty of his office for all his service in the tabernacle of the congregation: the boards of the tabernacle, its bars, its pillars and its sockets,
32 the pillars of the court around it and their sockets, its pegs and its cords, with all its instruments and all its service; and you will record by name all the utensils that they have to transport.
33 This will be the service of the families of the children of Merari for their entire ministry in the tabernacle of the congregation, under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
34 So Moses and Aaron and the leaders of the congregation numbered the sons of Kohath by their families and by the houses of their fathers,
35 from those who were thirty years old and up to those who were fifty years old; all who enter in company to minister in the tabernacle of the congregation.
36 And those who were numbered by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty.
37 These were those who were numbered from the families of Kohath, all those who minister in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, as Jehovah commanded by Moses.
38 And those who were numbered of the sons of Gershom by their families, according to the houses of their fathers,
39 from the age of thirty years old and up to the age of fifty years, all who come in company to minister in the tabernacle of the congregation ;
40 Those who were numbered by their families, according to the houses of their fathers, were two thousand six hundred and thirty.
41 These are those who were numbered from the families of the sons of Gershom, all those who minister in the tabernacle of the congregation, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the command of Jehovah.
42 And those who were numbered from the families of the children of Merari, by their families, according to the houses of their fathers,
43 from the age of thirty years old and up to the age of fifty years, all who enter into company to minister in the tabernacle of meeting;
44 Those who were numbered by their families were three thousand two hundred.
45 These were those who were numbered from the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered, as Jehovah commanded by Moses.
46 All those who were numbered of the Levites whom Moses and Aaron and the leaders of Israel numbered by their families, and according to the houses of their fathers,
47From those who were thirty years old and above to those who were fifty years old, all who came in to minister in the service and have charge of work in the tabernacle of the congregation,
48 those numbered of them were eight thousand five hundred and eighty.
49As the Lord commanded by Moses, they were numbered, each according to his office and according to his position; which he related, as he was commanded.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel to throw out of the camp every leper, and all those who have a discharge of semen, and everyone defiled with death.
3 You will throw out both men and women; You shall drive them out of the camp, so that they do not defile the camp of those among whom I live.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and drove them out of the camp; As Jehovah said to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
5 Furthermore, Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
6 Say to the children of Israel: The man or woman who commits any of the sins with which men transgress against Jehovah and commit crimes,
7 that person shall confess the sin he committed, and make amends. the damage entirely, and he will add a fifth part to it, and give it to him against whom he sinned.
8 And if that man has no relative to whom the damage is compensated, the compensation for the wrong shall be given to Jehovah by giving it to the priest, in addition to the ram of atonement, with which he will make atonement for him.
9 Every offering of all holy things that the children of Israel present to the priest shall be his.
10 And what is sanctified from anyone will be his; Likewise, whatever anyone gives to the priest, it will be his.
11 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying:
12 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him,
13 and a man cohabits with her, and her husband does not see it because she has defiled herself secretly, nor was there a witness against her, nor was she surprised in the act;
14 if a spirit of jealousy comes upon him, and he is jealous of his wife, since she has defiled herself; or a spirit of jealousy comes upon him, and he is jealous of his wife, since she has not defiled herself;
15 Then the husband will bring her wife to the priest, and with her he will bring her offering, a tenth of an ephah of barley flour; He will not pour oil on it, nor will he put incense on it, because it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of remembrance, which brings sin to remembrance.
16 And the priest will cause her to come near and stand before Jehovah.
17 Then the priest will take holy water in an earthen vessel; The priest will also take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and cast it into the water.
18 And the priest shall make the woman stand before Jehovah, and shall uncover the woman’s head, and put upon her hands the memorial offering, which is the offering of jealousy; and the priest will have in his hand the bitter waters that bring a curse.
19 And the priest will conjure her and say to her: If no one has slept with you, and if you have not departed from your husband to uncleanness, free you from these bitter waters that bring a curse;
20 But if you have gone astray from your husband and have defiled yourself, and someone other than your husband has cohabited with you,
21 (the priest will adjure the woman with an oath of a curse, and will say to the woman): Jehovah curses you and denounces you in among your people, Jehovah causing your thigh to fall and your belly to swell;
22 and let these waters that give curse enter your bowels, and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to fall. And the woman will say: Amen, amen.
23 The priest will write these curses in a book, and he will erase them with bitter waters;
24 and he will give the woman to drink the bitter waters that bring a curse; and the waters that work a curse will enter into it to make it bitter.
25 Then the priest will take the offering of her jealousy from the woman’s hand, and he will wave it before Jehovah, and he will offer it before the altar.
26 And the priest will take a handful of the offering in memory of her, and burn it on the altar, and then give the water to the woman to drink.
27 So he will give him the water to drink; and if she is unclean and has been unfaithful to her husband, the waters that work a curse will enter her to make her bitter, and her belly will swell and her thigh will fall; and the woman will be a curse among her people.
28 But if the woman is not unclean, but is clean, she will be free, and she will be fruitful.
29 This is the law of jealousy, when a woman commits unfaithfulness against her husband, and she is defiled by her;
30 or of the husband upon whom a spirit of jealousy passes, and he is jealous of his wife; He will then present it before Jehovah, and the priest will execute all this law on it.
31 The man will be free from iniquity, and the woman will bear her sin.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: The man or the woman who departs by vowing to be a Nazarite, to dedicate himself to Jehovah,
3 shall abstain from wine and strong drink; He will not drink wine vinegar or cider vinegar, nor drink any grape liquor, nor will he eat fresh or dried grapes.
4 All the time of his Naziriteship, of everything that is made of the vine, from the grains to the skin, he will not eat.
5 All the time of his Nazirite vow no razor will come upon his head; Until the days of his turning away from Jehovah are fulfilled, he will be holy; he will let his hair grow.
6 As long as he sets aside for Jehovah, he will not approach a dead person.
7 Neither by his father nor by his mother, nor by his brother nor by his sister, will he be able to defile himself when they die; for the consecration of his God is upon his head.
8 All the time of his separation he will be holy to Jehovah.
9 If anyone dies suddenly near him, his consecrated head will be defiled; therefore on the day of his purification he will shave off his head; On the seventh day he will destroy it.
10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
11 And the priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering; and he will make atonement for what he sinned because of the dead, and he will sanctify his head on that day.
12 And he will consecrate to Jehovah the days of his Naziriteship, and will bring a one-year-old lamb as a trespass offering; and the first days will be of no effect, because his Naziriteship was defiled.
13 Now this is the law of the Nazarite on the day that the time of his Naziriteship is fulfilled: He will come to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
14 and offer his offering to Jehovah, a lamb of one year old without blemish for a burnt offering, and a a one-year-old lamb without blemish for a sin offering, and a ram without blemish for a peace offering.
15 Also a basket of unleavened cakes of fine flour kneaded with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and his offering and his libations.
16 And the priest shall offer it before Jehovah, and shall make atonement for it and a burnt offering for it;
17 and he will offer the ram as a peace offering to Jehovah, with the basket of unleavened bread; The priest shall also offer his offering and his libations.
18 Then the Nazarite shall shave off his consecrated head at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of his consecrated head and put it on the fire that is under the peace offering.
19 Then the priest will take the cooked shoulder of the ram, an unleavened cake from the basket, and an unleavened pastry, and put them on the hands of the Nazarite, after his consecrated head is torn off;
20 and the priest shall wave it as a wave offering before Jehovah, which shall be a holy thing for the priest, besides the waved breast and the separated shoulder; Afterwards the Nazarite will be able to drink wine.
21 This is the law of the Nazirite who makes a vow of his offering to Jehovah for his Naziriteship, in addition to what his resources allow him; According to the vow that he makes, so will he do, according to the law of his Nazirite.
22 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
23 Speak to Aaron and his sons and say to them: Thus shall you bless the children of Israel, saying to them:
24 Jehovah bless you, and keep you;
25 Jehovah make his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you;
26 Jehovah lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.
27 And they will put my name over the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
1 It came to pass, when Moses had finished erecting the tabernacle, and had anointed and sanctified it, with all its vessels, and also anointed and sanctified the altar and all its vessels,
2 then the princes of Israel, the heads of the houses of their fathers, who were the princes of the tribes, who were over those who were numbered, offered;
3 And they brought their offerings before Jehovah, six covered carts and twelve oxen; for each two princes a chariot, and each one an ox, and they offered them before the tabernacle.
4 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
5 Take them of them, and they shall be for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; and you will give them to the Levites, to each one according to his ministry.
6 Then Moses received the carts and the oxen, and gave them to the Levites.
7 Two chariots and four oxen he gave to the sons of Gershom, according to his ministry,
8 and to the children of Merari he gave four chariots and eight oxen, according to his ministry under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
9 But he did not give to the sons of Kohath, because they carried the service of the sanctuary on their shoulders.
10 And the princes brought offerings for the dedication of the altar on the day that he was anointed, the princes offering their offering before the altar.

89 And when Moses entered the tabernacle of the congregation to speak with God, he heard the voice speaking to him from above the mercy seat that was over the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubim; and talked to him.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to Aaron and say to him: When you light the lamps, the seven lamps will shine toward the front of the lampstand.
3 And Aaron did so; He lit its lamps toward the front of the candlestick, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
4 And this was the workmanship of the lampstand, of hammered gold; From its foot to its flowers it was hammered; According to the pattern that Jehovah showed Moses, so he made the lampstand.
5 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying:
6 Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and make atonement for them.
7 This is what you will do as an atonement for them: Sprinkle the water of atonement on them, and pass the razor over their entire body, and they will wash their clothes and be cleansed.
8 Then they will take a bull, with its offering of fine flour mixed with oil; and you shall take another bull for a sin offering.
9 And you shall bring the Levites to come before the tabernacle of the congregation, and you shall gather together the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
10 And when you have brought the Levites near before Jehovah, the children of Israel will lay their hands on the Levites;
11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before Jehovah as an offering for the children of Israel, and they shall serve in the ministry of Jehovah.
12 And the Levites will lay their hands on the heads of the bulls; and you shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering to Jehovah, to make atonement for the Levites.
13 And you shall present the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them as an offering to Jehovah.
14 Thus you will separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites will be mine.
15 After that the Levites will come to minister in the tabernacle of the congregation; They will be purified, and you will offer them as an offering.
16 For the Levites from among the children of Israel are dedicated entirely to me, instead of every first-born; I have taken them to myself instead of the firstborn of all the children of Israel.
17 For every firstborn of the children of Israel is mine, both man and beast; From the day I struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
18 And I have taken the Levites in place of all the firstborn of the children of Israel.
19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to minister to the children of Israel in the tabernacle of the congregation, and to reconcile the children of Israel; so that there may be no plague on the children of Israel, when the children of Israel approach the sanctuary.
20 And Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel did to the Levites according to all that Jehovah commanded Moses concerning the Levites; This is what the children of Israel did to them.
21 And the Levites purified themselves, and washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them as an offering before Jehovah, and Aaron made atonement for them to purify them.
22 So the Levites came afterwards to minister in the tent of meeting before Aaron and before his sons; As Jehovah commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they do to them.
23 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
24 The Levites from twenty-five years old and up will enter to minister in the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
25 But from the age of fifty they will cease to exercise their ministry, and will never exercise it again.
26 They will serve with their brothers in the tabernacle of the congregation, to keep guard, but they will not serve in the ministry. Thus you shall do with the Levites regarding their ministry.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year after they left the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying:
2 The children of Israel will celebrate the Passover in its season.
3 On the fourteenth day of this month, between the two evenings, you will celebrate it at its time; You will celebrate it according to all its rites and according to all its laws.
4 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel to celebrate the Passover.
5 They celebrated the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, in the desert of Sinai; According to all that Jehovah commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 But there were some who were unclean because of the death, and could not keep the Passover that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron that day,
7 and those men said to him, We are unclean because of the dead; Why will we be prevented from offering an offering to Jehovah at his time among the children of Israel?
8 And Moses said to them, Wait, and I will hear what Jehovah commands concerning you.
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
10 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: Any of you or of your descendants, who is unclean because of death or is on a far journey, shall celebrate the Passover to Jehovah.
11 In the second month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, they will celebrate it; They will eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
12 They shall not leave the sacrificed animal until the morning, nor break any bones from it; They will celebrate the Passover according to all the rites of the Passover.
13 But whoever is clean and is not on a journey, if he fails to keep the Passover, that person will be cut off from among his people; Because he did not offer the offering of Jehovah at his time, that man will bear his sin.
14 And if a foreigner sojourns with you, and celebrates the Passover to Jehovah, he will celebrate it according to the rite of the Passover and according to his laws; You will have the same rite, both the foreign one and the native one of the land.
15 On the day the tabernacle was erected, the cloud covered the tabernacle over the tent of the testimony; And in the evening there was a semblance of fire over the tabernacle until the morning.
16 Thus it was continually: the cloud covered it by day, and by night the appearance of fire.
17 When the cloud was lifted from the tabernacle, the children of Israel departed; and in the place where the cloud stopped, there the children of Israel encamped.
18 At the command of Jehovah the children of Israel set out, and at the command of Jehovah they camped; Every day that the cloud was over the tabernacle, they remained encamped.
19 When the cloud stayed over the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the ordinance of Jehovah, and did not depart.
20 And when the cloud was over the tabernacle a few days, they camped at the command of Jehovah, and at the command of Jehovah they set out.
21 And when the cloud stayed from evening until morning, or when the cloud lifted up in the morning, they departed; or if they had been there for a day, and at night the cloud lifted, then they left.
22 Or whether for two days, or a month, or a year, while the cloud remained over the tabernacle and remained on it, the children of Israel remained encamped, and did not move; but when she arose, they departed.
23 At the command of Jehovah they camped, and at the command of the LORD they set out, keeping the ordinance of Jehovah as Jehovah had spoken through Moses.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Make for yourself two trumpets of silver; You will make them with hammer work, which will serve you to call together the congregation, and to move the camps.
3 And when they touch them, the whole congregation will gather before you at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 But when they touch only one, then the princes, the leaders of the thousands of Israel, will gather before you.
5 And when you sound an alarm, then they will move the camps of those who are encamped to the east.
6 And when you sound the alarm the second time, then they will move the camps of those who are encamped to the south; alarm will ring for their games.
7 But to gather the congregation you shall knock, but not with the sound of alarm.
8 And Aaron’s sons, the priests, will blow the trumpets; and you will have them as a perpetual statute throughout your generations.
9 And when you go out to war in your land against the enemy that troubles you, you will sound an alarm with trumpets; and you will be remembered by Jehovah your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
10 And in the day of your joy, and in your solemnities, and in the beginning of your months, you will blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the peace offerings, and they will be a memorial to you before your God. I am Jehovah your God.
11 In the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle of the congregation.
12 And the children of Israel set out from the desert of Sinai according to the order of their march; and the cloud stopped in the desert of Paran.
13 They set out the first time at the command of the Lord through Moses.
14 The banner of the camp of the children of Judah began to march first, by their armies; and Nahshon son of Amminadab was over his army.
15 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Nathanael the son of Zuar.
16 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Eliab the son of Helon.
17 After the tabernacle was taken down, the sons of Gershom and the sons of Merari moved in, carrying it.
18 Then the flag of Reuben’s camp began to march among his armies; and Elishur the son of Shedeur was over his army.
19 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shelumiel the son of Zurisadai.
20 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Gad, Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
21 Then the Kohathites began to march carrying the sanctuary; and while they arrived, the others prepared the tabernacle.
22 Then the banner of the camp of the children of Ephraim began to march through his armies; and Elishama the son of Amiud was over his army.
23 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Gamaliel the son of Pedashur.
24 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Benjamin, Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 Then he began to march the banner of the camp of the children of Dan through his armies, in the rear of all the camps; and Ahiezer the son of Amisadai was over his army.
26 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Asher, Pagiel the son of Ocran.
27 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Ahira the son of Enan.
28 This was the marching order of the children of Israel by their armies as they departed.
29 Then Moses said to Hobab, son of Raguel the Midianite, his father-in-law, We are setting out for the place of which Jehovah has said, I will give it to you. Come with us, and we will do you good; for Jehovah has promised good to Israel.
30 And he answered him, I will not go, but I will go to my country and to my kindred.
31 And he said to him, Please do not leave us; because you know the places where we will camp in the desert, and you will be our eyes.
32 And if you come with us, when we have the good that Jehovah will do to us, we will do good to you.
33 So they set out from the mountain of Jehovah for three days’ journey; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went before them three days’ journey, seeking a place of rest for them.
34 And the cloud of Jehovah went over them by day, as soon as they left the camp.
35 When the ark moved, Moses said, Arise, O Jehovah, and let your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate you flee from your presence.
36 And when she stopped, he said, Return, O Jehovah, to the thousands of thousands of Israel.
1 It came to pass that the people complained in the ears of Jehovah; And Jehovah heard it, and his anger burned, and the fire of Jehovah was kindled in them, and it consumed one of the ends of the camp.
2 Then the people cried out to Moses, and Moses prayed to Jehovah, and the fire was extinguished.
3 And he called that place Taberah, because the fire of the Lord was kindled in them.
4 And the foreign people who mingled with them had a strong desire, and the children of Israel also wept again and said, Would that he would give us meat to eat!
5 We remember the fish we ate for free in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions and the garlic;
6 and now our soul is dried up; for our eyes see nothing but this manna.
7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and its color was like the color of bdellium.
8 The people spread out and gathered it, and ground it in mills or pounded it in mortars, and baked it in a cauldron or made cakes from it; Its taste was like the taste of new oil.
9 And when the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna fell on it.
10 And Moses heard the people weeping for their families, each one at the door of his tent; and the wrath of Jehovah was greatly kindled; He also seemed bad to Moses.
11 And Moses said to Jehovah, Why have you done evil to your servant? And why have I not found favor in your eyes, who have placed the burden of all this people on me?
12 Did I conceive all this people? Did I beget him, so that you would say to me: Carry him in your womb, as a nurse carries a suckler, to the land of which you swore to her parents?
13 Where will I get meat to give to all this people? For they cry unto me, saying, Give us meat that we may eat.
14 I cannot bear all this people alone, for they are too heavy for me.
15 And if you do this to me, I pray that you put me to death, if I have found favor in your eyes; and that I do not see my evil.
16 Then Jehovah said to Moses, Gather for me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know are the elders of the people and their leaders; and bring them to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and let them wait there with you.
17 And I will go down and speak with you there, and I will take of the spirit that is in you, and I will put it in them; and they will bear the burden of the people with you, and you will not bear it alone.
18 But you will say to the people: Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Oh that he would give us meat to eat! We were certainly doing better in Egypt! Jehovah will give you meat and you will eat.
19You shall not eat for one day, nor for two days, nor for five days, nor for ten days, nor for twenty days,
20 but for a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils, and you hate it, because you have despised Jehovah who is in the midst of you. you, and wept before him, saying, Why did we come out hither from Egypt?
21 Then Moses said, Six hundred thousand foot is the people among whom I am; and you say, I will give them meat, and they will eat for a whole month!
22 Will sheep and oxen be slaughtered for them that are enough for them? Or will all the fish in the sea be gathered for them so that they have enough?
23 Then Jehovah said to Moses, Has the hand of Jehovah become short? Now you will see if my word is fulfilled or not.
24 And Moses went out and told the people the words of Jehovah; And he gathered together the seventy men of the elders of the people, and made them stand around the tabernacle.
25 Then Jehovah descended in the cloud and spoke to him; and he took of the spirit that was in him, and put it in the seventy old men; and when he rested the spirit on them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
26 And two men were left in the camp, one named Eldad and the other Medad, on whom also the spirit rested; These were among those enrolled, but they had not come to the tabernacle; and they prophesied in the camp.
27 And a young man ran and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad prophesy in the camp.
28 Then Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, one of his young women, answered and said, My Lord Moses, prevent them.
29 And Moses answered him, Are you jealous of me? I wish that all of Jehovah’s people were prophets, and that Jehovah would put his spirit upon them.
30 And Moses returned to the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 And a wind came from Jehovah, and brought quails from the sea, and left them over the camp, a day’s journey on one side, and a day’s journey on the other, around the camp, and almost two cubits on the face of the land.
32 Then the people stayed up all that day and all night, and all the next day, and gathered quails; The least, he collected ten heaps; and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.
33 The meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, when the anger of Jehovah was kindled against the people, and Jehovah struck the people with a very great plague.
34 And he called the name of that place Kibrot-hataava, because there they buried the greedy people.
35 From Kibroth-hataava the people went to Hazeroth, and stayed in Hazeroth
1 Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman he had taken; because he had taken a Cushite wife.
2 And they said, Has Jehovah spoken only through Moses? Has He not also spoken for us? And Jehovah heard it.
3 And that man Moses was very meek, more than all the men that he was on the earth.
4 Then Jehovah said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “Go out, you three, to the tabernacle of the congregation.” And the three of them came out.
5 Then Jehovah descended in the pillar of the cloud, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came out.
6 And he said to them, Hear now my words. When there is a prophet of Jehovah among you, I will appear to him in a vision, and I will speak with him in a dream.
7 Not so with my servant Moses, who is faithful in all my house.
8 Face to face I will speak with him, and clearly, and not in figures; and he will see the appearance of Jehovah. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?
9 Then the anger of Jehovah was kindled against them; and he left.
10 And the cloud departed from the tabernacle, and, behold, Mary was leprous as snow; And Aaron looked at Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.
11 And Aaron said to Moses, Ah! my lord, do not put this sin on us now; because we have acted madly, and we have sinned.
12 Let her not now remain like one who is born dead, for when she comes out of her mother’s womb, her flesh is already half consumed.
13 Then Moses cried unto Jehovah, saying, I pray thee, O God, heal her now.
14 Jehovah said to Moses, If his father had spit in his face, would he not be ashamed for seven days? She will be cast out of the camp for seven days, and then she will return to the congregation.
15 So Mary was driven out of the camp seven days; and the people did not go forward until Mary joined them.
16 Then the people left Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Send men to search out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; From each tribe of their fathers you will send a man, each one a prince among them.
3 And Moses sent them out of the wilderness of Paran, according to the word of Jehovah; and all those men were princes of the children of Israel.
4 These are their names: Of the tribe of Reuben, Samua the son of Zaccur.
5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
6 Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
7 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
8 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea son of Nun.
9 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Rafhu.
10 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gadiel the son of Sodi.
11 Of the tribe of Joseph: of the tribe of Manasseh, Gadi the son of Susi.
12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemali.
13 Of the tribe of Asher, Setur son of Michael.
14 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vapsi.
15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
16 These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land; and Hoshea son of Nun Moses named him Joshua.
17 So Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, saying to them, Go up from here to the Negev, and go up to the mountain,
18 and see what the land is like, and the people who live in it, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are little. or numerous;
19 what the inhabited land is like, whether it is good or bad; and what the inhabited cities are like, whether they are camps or fortified places;
20 and what the land is like, whether it is fertile or barren, whether there are trees in it or not; and be strong, and take of the fruit of the country. And it was the time of the first grapes.
21 And they went up and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, entering into Hamath.
22 And they went up into the Negev and came to Hebron; and there were Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the sons of Anak. Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.
23 And they came to the brook Eshcol, and from there they cut a branch with a bunch of grapes, which they brought two on a stick, and of the pomegranates and of the figs.
24 And that place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster that the children of Israel cut from there.
25 And they returned from scouting the land at the end of forty days.
26And they went and came to Moses and Aaron, and to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, in the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh, and they gave information to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.
27 And they told them, saying, We have come to the land to which you sent us, which indeed flows with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
28 But the people who live in that land are strong, and the cities are very large and fortified; and we also saw the sons of Anak there.
29 Amalek lives in the Negev, and the Hittite, the Jebusite, and the Amorite live in the mountains, and the Canaanite lives by the sea and on the banks of the Jordan.
30 Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up immediately and take possession of it; because we can do more than they do.
31 But the men who went up with him said, We cannot go up against that people, because they are stronger than us.
32 And they spoke evil among the children of Israel, of the land which they had surveyed, saying, The land through which we passed to survey it, is a land that devours its inhabitants; and all the people that we saw in the midst of it are men of great stature.
33 We also saw there giants, the sons of Anak, a race of giants, and we were, in our opinion, like locusts; and that’s how we seemed to them.
1 Then the whole congregation shouted and shouted; and the people cried that night.
2 And all the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron; and all the multitude said unto them, Would that we would die in the land of Egypt; or in this desert I wish we would die!
3 And why does Jehovah bring us to this land to fall by the sword, and to make our women and our children a prey? Wouldn’t it be better for us to return to Egypt?
4 And they said one to another, Let us appoint a captain, and let us return to Egypt.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before the whole crowd of the congregation of the children of Israel.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were of those who had searched the land, tore their clothes,
7 and spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, saying, The land through which we went to search out is land in a very good way.
8 If Jehovah delights in us, he will bring us into this land, and he will give it to us; land flowing with milk and honey.
9 Therefore do not rebel against Jehovah, nor fear the people of this land; because we will eat them like bread; His protection has departed from them, and Jehovah is with us; do not fear them.
10 Then the whole crowd spoke of stoning them. But the glory of Jehovah was shown in the tabernacle of the congregation to all the children of Israel,
11 and Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people provoke me? How long will they not believe me, with all the signs that I have done among them?
12 I will kill them and destroy them, and I will set you over people greater and stronger than they.
13 But Moses said to Jehovah, “The Egyptians will soon hear it, because you brought this people out of their midst by your power;
14 and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, who have heard that you, O Jehovah, were among this people, that you, O Jehovah, appeared face to face, and that your cloud was over them, and that by day You went before them in a pillar of cloud, and at night in a pillar of fire;
15 and that you have caused this people to die as one man; and the people who have heard your fame will speak, saying:
16 Because Jehovah could not bring this people into the land of which he had sworn to them, he slew them in the wilderness.
17 Now therefore I pray to you, that the power of Jehovah may be magnified, as you spoke, saying:
18Jehovah, slow to anger and abounding in mercy, forgiving iniquity and rebellion, yet will by no means clear the guilty; that he visits the iniquity of the parents on the children to the third and fourth.
19 Now forgive the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of your mercy, and as you have forgiven this people from Egypt until here.
20 Then Jehovah said, I have forgiven him according to your word.
21 But as surely as I live, and my glory fills the whole earth,
22 all who have seen my glory and my signs which I have done in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have already tempted me ten times, and have not heard my voice ,
23 They will not see the land of which I swore to their fathers; No, none of those who have irritated me will see it.
24 But my servant Caleb, because another spirit was in him, and he decided to go after me, I will bring him into the land where he entered, and his descendants will possess it.
25 Now the Amalekite and the Canaanite live in the valley; Return tomorrow and go out into the desert, on the way to the Red Sea.
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
27 How long shall I hear this depraved multitude that murmur against me, the complaints of the children of Israel, that complain against me?
28 Tell them: As I live, says Jehovah, as you have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you.
29 In this desert your bodies will fall; all the number of those who were numbered among you, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me.
30 You will certainly not enter the land, for which I raised my hand and swore that I would make you dwell therein; except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
31 But your children, of whom you said they would be a prey, I will bring in, and they will know the land that you despised.
32 As for you, your bodies will fall into this desert.
33 And your children will shepherd in the wilderness for forty years, and they will bear your transgressions, until your bodies are consumed in the wilderness.
34 According to the number of the days, of the forty days in which you reconnoitred the land, you will bear your iniquities forty years, one year for each day; and you will know my punishment.
35 I, Jehovah, have spoken; This is what I will do to all this wicked crowd that has gathered against me; In this desert they will be consumed, and there they will die.
36 And the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, and who upon their return had caused the whole congregation to murmur against him, discrediting that country,
37 those men who had spoken evil of the land, died of the plague before Jehovah.
38 But Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh were left alive, among those men who had gone to spy out the land.
39 And Moses said these things to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned greatly.
40 And they rose up in the morning and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, Here we are to go up to the place of which Jehovah has spoken; because we have sinned.
41 And Moses said, Why do you transgress the commandment of Jehovah? This won’t turn out well for you either.
42 Do not go up, because Jehovah is not among you, do not be wounded before your enemies.
43 For the Amalekite and the Canaanite are there before you, and you will fall by the sword; for because you have refused to follow Jehovah, therefore Jehovah will not be with you.
44 However, they persisted in climbing to the top of the mountain; but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and Moses, did not depart from the midst of the camp.
45 And the Amalekite and the Canaanite who lived in that mountain came down and wounded them and defeated them, pursuing them as far as Hormah.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: When you have entered into the land of your habitation that I am giving you,
3 and you make an offering by fire to Jehovah, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice, by special vow, or of your will, or to offer at your solemn festivals a pleasing odor to Jehovah, of cows or sheep;
4 Then whoever presents his offering to Jehovah will bring as an offering a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a fourth of a hin of oil.
5 You shall offer a fourth part of a hin of wine for the libation, in addition to the burnt offering or sacrifice, for each lamb.
6 For each ram you shall make an offering of two tenths of fine flour, mixed with a third of a hin of oil;
7 and of wine for the drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin, for a pleasing odor to Jehovah.
8 When you offer a bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice, by special vow, or of peace to Jehovah,
9 you shall offer with the bull an offering of three tenths of fine flour, mixed with half a hin of oil;
10 and of wine for the drink offering you shall offer half a hin, as an offering made by fire of a sweet aroma to Jehovah.
11 Thus shall it be done with every ox, or ram, or lamb of the sheep, or goat.
12 According to the number you shall do so to each one, according to the number of them.
13 Every natural person will do these things like this, to offer an offering made by fire of a sweet aroma to Jehovah.
14 And when a foreigner dwells with you, or whoever is among you throughout your generations, if he makes an offering by fire of a sweet savor to Jehovah, as you do, so shall he do.
15 You will have the same status for the congregation and the foreigner who lives with you; It will be a perpetual statute throughout your generations; Like you, so will the foreigner be before Jehovah.
16 You and the foreigner who lives with you will have one law and one decree.
17 Jehovah also spoke to Moses, saying:
18 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: When you have entered the land to which I am bringing you,
19 when you begin to eat the bread of the land, you shall offer an offering to Jehovah.
20 Of the first that you knead, you shall offer a cake as an offering; As the offering of the threshing floor, so you shall offer it.
21 Of the first fruits of your dough you shall give to Jehovah an offering throughout your generations.
22 And when you err and do not do all these commandments that Jehovah said to Moses,
23all the things that Jehovah has commanded you by Moses, from the day that Jehovah commanded it, and on throughout your generations,
24 if the sin was done by mistake in the ignorance of the congregation, the whole congregation shall offer a bullock for a burnt offering for a sweet savor to Jehovah, with his offering and his drink offering according to the law, and a goat for a sin offering.
25 And the priest will make atonement for the entire congregation of the children of Israel; and he will be forgiven them, because he is an error; and they shall bring their offerings, an offering made by fire to Jehovah, and his atonement before Jehovah for his sins.
26 And he will be forgiven to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, and to the stranger who sojourns among them, because he is the error of all the people.
27 If a person sins by mistake, he will offer a one-year-old goat for a sin offering.
28 And the priest will make atonement for the person who has sinned by mistake; when he sins in error before the Lord, he will reconcile her, and he will be forgiven her.
29 He who is born among the children of Israel, and the foreigner who lives among them, you will have the same law for him who does anything by mistake.
30 But anyone who does anything arrogantly, whether a native or a foreigner, insults Jehovah; that person will be cut off from among his people.
31 Because he despised the word of Jehovah, and despised his commandment, that person shall be cut off entirely; his iniquity will fall upon her.
32 While the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering firewood on the Sabbath day.
33 And those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation;
34 and they put him in prison, because it was not clear what should be done to him.
35 And Jehovah said to Moses, “May that man surely die; Let the entire congregation stone him outside the camp.
36 Then the congregation brought him out of the camp, and stoned him, and he died, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
37 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
38 Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them to make fringes on the edges of their garments throughout their generations; and put a blue cord on each strip of the edges.
39 And it will serve as a border for you, so that when you see it you will remember all the commandments of the Lord, to do them; and do not look after your heart and your eyes, after which you prostitute yourself.
40 That you may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God.
41 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am Jehovah your God.
1 Korah the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and On the son of Peleth, of the sons of Reuben, took a force,
2 and rose up against Moses with two hundred and fifty men of the sons of Israel, princes of the congregation, of those of the council, men of renown.
3 And they gathered together against Moses and Aaron and said to them, Enough of you! For the whole congregation, all of them are holy, and Jehovah is in their midst; Why then do you rise above the congregation of Jehovah?
4 When Moses heard this, he fell on his face;
5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, Tomorrow Jehovah will show who is his, and who is holy, and will cause him to draw near to him; Whom he chooses, he will bring to himself.
6 Do this: take censers, Korah and all his company,
7 and put fire in them, and put incense on them before Jehovah tomorrow; and the man whom Jehovah chooses, he will be the holy one; This is enough for you, sons of Levi.
8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear now, O sons of Levi:
9 Is it a small thing for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, bringing you near to him to minister in the service of the tabernacle of Jehovah, and to stand before of the congregation to minister to them,
10 and what caused you to bring yourself and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you also seek the priesthood?
11 Therefore, you and all your company are those who gather together against Jehovah; For Aaron, what is he, that you murmur against him?
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; but they answered, We will not go there.
13 Is it a small thing that you have brought us from a land dripping with milk and honey, to cause us to die in the desert, but that you also have dominion over us?
14 Nor have you brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor have you given us inheritances of lands and vineyards. Will you take out the eyes of these men? We will not go up.
15 Then Moses was very angry, and said to Jehovah, Look not at his offering; I have not taken even a donkey from them, nor have I harmed any of them.
16 Then Moses said to Korah, You and all your company, stand before Jehovah tomorrow; you, and they, and Aaron;
17 And take each of you his censer and put incense on them, and come before Jehovah each of you with his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; You also, and Aaron, each one with his censer.
18 And they each took the censer from him, and put fire in them, and put incense in them, and stood at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
19 Korah had already gathered the entire congregation against them at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation; then the glory of Jehovah appeared to the whole congregation.
20 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
21 Depart from among this congregation, and I will consume them in a moment.
22 And they fell on their faces, and said, God, God of the spirits of all flesh, is it not one man that sinned? Why be angry with the whole congregation?
23 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
24 Speak to the congregation and say to them, Move away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
25 Then Moses arose and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart now from the tents of these wicked men, and touch not any thing of theirs, lest ye perish in all their sins.
27 And they departed from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram round about; and Dathan and Abiram went out and stood at the doors of their tents, with their wives, their children, and their little ones.
28 And Moses said, By this you will know that Jehovah sent me to do all these things, and that I did not do them of my own will.
29 If these die as all men die, or if they, being visited, follow the fate of all men, Jehovah has not sent me.
30 But if Jehovah does something new, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up with all their belongings, and they go down alive to Sheol, then you will know that these men provoked Jehovah.
31 And it came to pass, when he had ceased to speak all these words, that the earth that was under them was opened.
32 He opened the earth’s mouth, and swallowed them, their houses, all the men of Korah, and all his possessions.
33 And they, with all that they had, went down alive to Sheol, and the earth covered them, and they perished from the midst of the congregation.
34 And all Israel, who were around them, fled at their cry; because they said: Let the earth also not swallow us.
35 Fire also came out from before Jehovah, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.
36 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
37 Tell Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to take the censers from the midst of the fire, and pour out the fire beyond; because
38 the censers of these who sinned against their souls are sanctified ; and they will make beaten plates of them to cover the altar; Because they have offered with them before Jehovah, they are sanctified, and they will be a sign to the children of Israel.
39 And Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers with which the burnt men had offered; and they beat them to cover the altar,
40 as a memorial to the children of Israel, that no stranger who is not of Aaron’s seed should come near to offer incense before Jehovah, so that he may not be like Korah and like his company. ; as Jehovah told him through Moses.
41 The next day the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying, You have slain the people of Jehovah.
42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered together against Moses and Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation, and, behold, the cloud had covered it, and the glory of Jehovah appeared.
43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
44 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
45 Depart from the midst of this congregation, and I will consume them in a moment. And they put on their faces.
46 And Moses said to Aaron, Take the censer, and put fire from the altar on it, and put incense on it, and go quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them, because the wrath has gone out from the presence of Jehovah; the mortality has begun.
47Then Aaron took the censer, as Moses said, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and behold, the mortality had begun in the people; and he put incense, and made atonement for the people,
48 and stood between the dead and the living; and he ceased the mortality.
49 And those who died in that plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, without those killed in the rebellion of Korah.
50 Then Aaron returned to Moses at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, when the mortality had ceased.
1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and take from them one rod for each house of their fathers, of all their princes, twelve rods according to the houses of their fathers; and you will write the name of each one on his staff.
3 And you shall write the name of Aaron on the rod of Levi; for every head of his father’s family will have a rod.
4 And you shall put them in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will manifest myself to you.
5 And the rod of the man whom I choose will flourish, and I will cause the complaints of the children of Israel to cease from before me, with which they murmur against you.
6 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and all their princes gave him rods; each prince for the houses of his fathers one rod, in total twelve rods; and Aaron’s rod was among their rods.
7 And Moses set the staves before the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony.
8 And it came to pass on the next day that Moses came to the tabernacle of the congregation; and behold, the rod of Aaron of the house of Levi had budded, and put forth flowers, and put forth shoots, and produced almonds.
9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs from before the LORD to all the children of Israel; and they saw it, and each one took his staff.
10 And the LORD said to Moses, Bring back Aaron’s rod before the testimony, that it may be kept as a sign for the rebellious sons; and you will cause their complaints to cease from before me, so that they will not die.
11 And Moses did as the Lord commanded him, so he did.
12 Then the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, we are dead, we are lost, we are all lost.
13 Whoever comes near, whoever comes to the tabernacle of the Lord, will die. Will we all end up perishing?
1 Jehovah said to Aaron, You and your sons, and your father’s house with you, will bear the sin of the sanctuary; and you and your children with you will bear the sin of your priesthood.
2 And your brothers also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, make them come to you and join you, and they will serve you; and you and your sons with you shall serve before the tabernacle of the congregation.
3 And they will keep what you command, and the charge of the whole tabernacle; But they will not approach the holy utensils or the altar, lest they and you die.
4 Therefore they will gather together with you, and will have charge of the tabernacle of the congregation in all the service of the tabernacle; no stranger is to approach you.
5 And you will have the care of the sanctuary, and the care of the altar, so that wrath will no longer come on the children of Israel.
6 For behold, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the children of Israel, given to you as a gift from Jehovah, to minister in the ministry of the tabernacle of the congregation.
7 But you and your sons with you will keep your priesthood in everything related to the altar, and of the veil within, and you will minister. I have given you as a gift the service of your priesthood; and the stranger who approaches will die.
8 And Jehovah said to Aaron, Behold, I have also given you the care of my offerings; I have given you all the consecrated things of the children of Israel by reason of the anointing, and to your children, as a perpetual statute.
9 This will be yours from the offering of the holy things, reserved from the fire; Every offering of theirs, every gift of theirs, and every atonement for their sin, and every atonement for their guilt, which they shall present to me, will be very holy to you and to your children.
10 In the sanctuary you will eat it; every man will eat of it; It will be a holy thing for you.
11 This also shall be yours: the heave offering of his gifts, and all the wave offerings of the children of Israel, I have given to you and to your sons and to your daughters with you, as a perpetual statute; everything clean in your house will eat of them.
12 Of oil, of new wine, and of wheat, all the choicest things, the first fruits of them, which they will present to Jehovah, I have given them to you.
13 The firstfruits of all things from their land, which they bring to Jehovah, will be yours; everything clean in your house will eat of them.
14 Everything consecrated by vow in Israel will be yours.
15 Everything that opens the womb, of all flesh that will be offered to Jehovah, both man and animal, will be yours; but you will cause the firstborn of man to be redeemed; You will also redeem the firstborn from an unclean animal.
16For one month you shall ransom them, according to your estimate, for the price of five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty geras.
17 But the firstborn of a cow, the firstborn of a sheep, and the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; sanctified they are; You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and burn their fat, an offering made by fire for a sweet savor to Jehovah.
18 And their flesh will be yours; like the breast of the wave offering and like the right shoulder, it will be yours.
19 All the heave offerings of holy things, which the children of Israel offer to Jehovah, I have given to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, as a perpetual statute; It is a perpetual covenant of salt before Jehovah for you and for your descendants with you.
20 And Jehovah said to Aaron, Of their land you shall have no inheritance, nor shall you have any part among them. I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
21 And behold, I have given to the sons of Levi all the tithes in Israel for an inheritance, for their ministry, because they serve in the ministry of the tabernacle of the congregation.
22 And the children of Israel shall no longer approach the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin for which they die.
23 But the Levites will do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they will bear their iniquity; perpetual statute for your descendants; and they will have no inheritance among the children of Israel.
24 For I have given to the Levites as an inheritance the tithes of the children of Israel, which they will offer to the Lord as an offering; Therefore I have said to you: Among the children of Israel you will have no inheritance.
25 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
26 Thus you shall speak to the Levites, and say to them: When you take from the children of Israel the tithes that I have given you of them for your inheritance, you shall present the tithe of them as a wave offering to Jehovah. of the tithes.
27 And your offering will be counted to you as the grain of the threshing floor, and as the produce of the winepress.
28 Thus you also shall offer an offering to Jehovah of all your tithes that you receive from the children of Israel; and you shall give of them the offering of Jehovah to Aaron the priest.
29 Of all your gifts you will offer every offering to Jehovah; of all the best of them you will offer the portion that is to be consecrated.
30 And you will say to them: When you offer the best of them, it will be counted to the Levites as the product of the threshing floor, and as the product of the winepress.
31 And you will eat it anywhere, you and your families; for it is your reward for your ministry in the tabernacle of the congregation.
32 And you will bear no sin for it, when you have offered the best part of it; and you will not defile the holy things of the children of Israel, and you will not die.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
2 This is the ordinance of the law which Jehovah has prescribed, saying: Tell the children of Israel to bring you a red heifer, perfect, in which there is no fault, on which no yoke has been put on;
3 and you will give her to Eleazar the priest, and he will bring her outside the camp, and have her throat slaughtered in her presence.
4 And Eleazar the priest will take some of the blood with his finger, and sprinkle it toward the front of the tabernacle of the congregation with its blood seven times;
5 and he will burn the cow before his eyes; his hide and his flesh and her blood, with her dung, he will burn.
6 Then the priest will take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and throw them into the middle of the fire in which the heifer is burning.
7 Then the priest will wash his clothes and wash his body with water, and then he will enter the camp; and the priest will be unclean until the evening.
8 Likewise he who burned it will wash his clothes in water, and he will also wash his body in water, and he will be unclean until the evening.
9 And a clean man shall gather the ashes of the heifer and put them outside the camp in a clean place, and the congregation of the children of Israel shall keep them for the water of purification; It is an atonement.
10 And he who gathered up the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the evening; and it shall be a perpetual statute for the children of Israel, and for the stranger who sojourns among them.
11 Whoever touches the dead body of any person will be unclean for seven days.
12 On the third day he will purify himself with that water, and on the seventh day he will be clean; and if he is not purified on the third day, he will not be clean on the seventh day.
13 Whosoever touches the dead body of any person, and does not purify himself, has defiled the tabernacle of Jehovah, and that person shall be cut off from Israel; Because the water of purification was not sprinkled on him, he will be unclean, and his uncleanness will be on him.
14 This is the law for when someone dies in the tent: whoever enters the tent, and everyone who is in it, will be unclean seven days.
15 And every open vessel, whose lid is not fastened tightly, will be unclean;
16 And whoever touches any person killed by the sword on the open field, or any corpse, or human bone, or grave, shall be unclean for seven days
17 And for the unclean they shall take of the ashes of the burnt heifer of the sin offering, and shall pour running water upon it in a vessel;
18 and a clean man will take hyssop, dip it in water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the furniture, on the people who are there, and on the one who touched the bone, or the murdered person, or the dead person, or the tomb.
19 And the clean shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day; and when he has purified him on the seventh day, he shall then wash his clothes, and wash himself with water, and he shall be clean at night.
20 And whoever is unclean and does not purify himself, that person shall be cut off from the congregation, because he has defiled the tabernacle of Jehovah; the water of purification was not sprinkled on him; It is unclean.
21 It will be a perpetual statute for them; also he who sprinkles the water of purification will wash his clothes; and whoever touches the water of purification will be unclean until the evening.
22 And whatever the unclean person touches will be unclean; and the person who touches it will be unclean until the evening.
1 The children of Israel, the whole congregation, came to the wilderness of Zin in the first month, and the people camped at Kadesh; and there Mary died, and there she was buried.
2 And because there was no water for the congregation, they gathered together against Moses and Aaron.
3 And the people spoke against Moses, saying, Would that we had died when our brothers perished before Jehovah!
4 Why did you bring the congregation of Jehovah into this wilderness, so that we and our animals might die here?
5 And why have you brought us up from Egypt, to bring us to this evil place? It is not a place of fields, fig trees, vineyards or pomegranates; not even water to drink.
6 And Moses and Aaron went from before the congregation to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and fell on their faces; and the glory of the Lord appeared upon them.
7 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
8 Take the staff, and gather the congregation, you and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock in their sight; and she will give water from it, and you will draw water for them from the rock, and you will give drink to the congregation and their animals.
9 Then Moses took the staff from before Jehovah, as he commanded him.
10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation before the rock, and he said to them, Listen now, you rebels! Shall we bring water out of this rock?
11 Then Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock with his staff twice; And much water came out, and the congregation and their beasts drank.
12 And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, Because you did not believe in me to sanctify me before the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this congregation into the land that I have given them.
13 These are the waters of strife, by which the children of Israel contended with Jehovah, and he was sanctified in them.
14 Moses sent ambassadors to the king of Edom from Kadesh, saying, Thus says Israel your brother: You have known all the trouble that has come upon us;
15 how our fathers went down to Egypt, and we were in Egypt a long time, and the Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers;
16 And we cried to Jehovah, who heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us out of Egypt; and behold, we are in Kadesh, a city near your borders.
17 We beg you to pass through your land. We will not go through plowing, nor through vineyards, nor will we drink water from wells; We will go along the royal road, without turning to the right or to the left, until we have passed your territory.
18 Edom answered him, Thou shalt not pass through my country; Otherwise, I will come out against you armed.
19 And the children of Israel said, We will go by the main road; and if I and my cattle drink your waters, I will give the price of them; Just let me pass on foot, nothing more.
20 But he answered, You shall not pass. And Edom came out against him with many people and a strong hand.
21 So Edom would not let Israel pass through his territory, and Israel turned away from him.
22 And the children of Israel, all that congregation, departed from Kadesh, and came to Mount Hor.
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron on Mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24 Aaron will be gathered to his people, for he will not enter the land that I gave to the children of Israel, because you were rebels against my commandment in the waters of strife.
25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor,
26 and strip Aaron of his garments, and clothe Eleazar his son in them; for Aaron will be gathered to his people, and there he will die.
27 And Moses did as Jehovah commanded him; and they went up to Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
29 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, all the families of Israel mourned him for thirty days.
1 When the Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that Israel was coming by the way of Atarim, he fought against Israel and took prisoners from them.
2 Then Israel made a vow to Jehovah, and said, If you indeed deliver this people into my hand, I will destroy their cities.
3 And Jehovah heard the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites, and destroyed them and their cities; and he called the name of that place Horma.
4 Then they set out from Mount Hor, on the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the people became discouraged along the way.
5 And the people spoke against God and against Moses: Why did you bring us up from Egypt to die in this desert? Well, there is no bread or water, and our soul dislikes this light bread.
6 And Jehovah sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.
7 Then the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned because we have spoken against Jehovah, and against you; Pray to Jehovah to remove these snakes from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
8 And Jehovah said to Moses, Make yourself a fiery serpent, and put it on a pole; and whoever is bitten and looks at it will live.
9 And Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and when a serpent bit anyone, he looked at the bronze serpent, and lived.
10 Then the children of Israel set out and camped at Oboth.
11 And they set out from Oboth, and camped at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness opposite Moab, at the rising of the sun.
12 They set out from there and camped in the valley of Zered.
13 From there they set out and camped on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness, leading out of the territory of the Amorites; for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Therefore it is said in the book of the battles of the Lord: What he did in the Red Sea, and in the rivers of Arnon;
15 And to the stream of the streams That ends in Ar, And rests on the border of Moab.
16 From there they came to Beer: this is the well of which Jehovah said to Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
17 Then Israel sang this song: Come up, O well; sing to him;
18 Well, which the lords dug. The princes of the people dug it, And the legislator, with his staffs. From the wilderness they came to Matana,
19 and from Matana to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the fields of Moab, and to the top of Pisgah, which looks toward the wilderness. Israel defeats Sihon
21 Then Israel sent ambassadors to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22 I will pass through your land; We will not go through the fields, nor through the vineyards; we will not drink the waters of the wells; We will go along the royal road until we pass your territory.
23 But Sihon did not let Israel pass through his territory, but Sihon gathered all his people and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and came to Jahaza and fought against Israel.
24 And Israel struck him down with the edge of the sword, and took his land from Arnon to Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25 And Israel took all these cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all its villages.
26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had previously had war with the king of Moab, and had taken from him all his land as far as Arnon.
27 Therefore the proverbs say: Come to Heshbon, Let the city of Sihon be built and repaired.
28 For fire came out of Heshbon, and flame from the city of Sihon, and consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the heights of Arnon.
29 Woe to you, Moab! You perished, people of Chemosh. Their sons were put into flight, and their daughters into captivity, by Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 But We devastated their kingdom; Heshbon perished as far as Dibon, And we destroyed as far as Nophah and Medeba. Israel defeats Og of Bashan
31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32 Moses also sent to spy out Jazer; and they took his villages, and drove out the Amorite that was there.
33 And they returned and went up to Bashan; And Og king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to fight at Edrei.
34 Then Jehovah said to Moses, Do not be afraid of him, for I have given him into your hand, both him and all his people, and his land; and you will do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.
35 And they smote him and his sons and all his people, not one of them left, and they took possession of his land.
1 The children of Israel set out and camped in the fields of Moab by the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.
3 And Moab was greatly afraid because of the people, because they were many; and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.
4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, Now these people will lick all around us, as the ox licks the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was then king of Moab.
5 Therefore he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor, at Pethor, which is by the river in the land of the children of his people, to call him, saying, A people has come out of Egypt, and behold, it covers the face of the earth, and dwell before me.
6 Come now, I pray you, curse me this people, because they are stronger than me; perhaps I can wound him and drive him from the earth; For I know that whoever you bless will be blessed, and whoever you curse will be cursed.
7 The elders of Moab and the elders of Midian went with gifts of divination in their hand, and came to Balaam and told him the words of Balak.
8 He said to them, Rest here tonight, and I will give you an answer as Jehovah speaks to me. So the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam.
9 And God came to Balaam, and said unto him, What men are these that are with thee?
10 And Balaam answered God, Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent to me and said,
11 Behold, this people that came out of Egypt covers the face of the earth; Come now, then, and curse me; Maybe I can fight him and throw him out.
12 Then God said to Balaam, Do not go with them, nor curse the people, for blessed are they.
13 So Balaam got up in the morning and said to the princes of Balak, Return to your own land, because Jehovah does not want to let me go with you.
14 And the princes of Moab arose, and came to Balak, and said, Balaam would not come with us.
15 Balak again sent more princes, and more honorable than the others;
16 who came to Balaam and said to him, Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: Please do not stop coming to me;
17 For I will certainly honor you greatly, and do whatever you tell me; Come now, curse this people for me.
18 And Balaam answered and said to Balak’s servants, Even if Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of Jehovah my God to do anything small or great.
19 Therefore I beg you now to rest here tonight, so that I may know what Jehovah says to me again.
20 And God came to Balaam by night, and said to him, If these men have come to call you, get up and go with them; but you will do what I tell you.
21 So Balaam got up in the morning, saddled his donkey, and went to the princes of Moab.
22 And the anger of God was kindled because he went; and the angel of Jehovah stood in the way as his adversary. So he was riding on his donkey, and with him two of his servants.
23 And the donkey saw the angel of Jehovah standing in the way with his drawn sword in his hand; and he turned the donkey out of the way, and went into the field. Then Balaam whipped the donkey to make her return to the road.
24 But the angel of Jehovah stood in a path of vineyards that had a wall on one side and a wall on the other.
25 And when the donkey saw the angel of Jehovah, he stuck to the wall, and pressed Balaam’s foot against the wall; and he spanked her again.
26 And the angel of Jehovah passed beyond, and he stood in a narrow place where there was no way to turn either to the right or to the left.
27 And when the donkey saw the angel of Jehovah, it fell under Balaam; and Balaam was angry and whipped the donkey with a stick.
28 Then Jehovah opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, What have I done to you, that you have beaten me these three times?
29 And Balaam said to the donkey, Because you have mocked me. I wish I had a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you!
30 And the donkey said to Balaam, Am I not your donkey? You have ridden over me since you had me until this day; Have I used to do it like this with you? And he answered, No.
31 Then the LORD opened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and he had his drawn sword in his hand. And Balaam bowed down, and bowed down to his face.
32 And the angel of the LORD said to him, Why have you whipped your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out to resist you, for your way is wicked before me.
33 The donkey has seen me, and has then turned away from before me these three times; and if she had not departed from me, I would also now kill you, and leave her alive.
34 Then Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, I have sinned, because I did not know that you stood before me in the way; but now, if it seems wrong to you, I will return.
35 And the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, Go with those men; but the word that I say to you, that you will speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
36 When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at the city of Moab, which is by the border of Arnon, which is at the end of his territory.
37 And Balak said to Balaam, Did I not send to call you? Why haven’t you come to me? Can I not honor you?
38 Balaam answered Balak, Behold, I have come to you; But can I now speak something? The word that God puts in my mouth, that is what I will speak.
39 And Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kiriath-huzot.
40 And Balak killed oxen and sheep, and sent Balaam, and the princes that were with him.
41 The next day Balak took Balaam and brought him up to Bamoth-baal, and from there he saw the nearest of the people..
1 And Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare here seven calves and seven rams.
2 Balak did as Balaam told him; and Balak and Balaam offered a bullock and a ram on each altar.
3 And Balaam said to Balak, Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go; Perhaps Jehovah will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me, I will tell you. And he went to an open mountain.
4 And God came to meet Balaam, and he said to him, I have ordained seven altars, and on each altar I have offered a bullock and a ram.
5 And Jehovah put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said to him, Return to Balak, and say thus to him.
6 And he returned to him, and, behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, he and all the princes of Moab.
7 And he took the parable from him, and said, Balak, King of Moab, brought me from Aram, from the mountains of the east; Come, curse me Jacob, And come, execrate Israel.
8 Why should I curse him whom God did not curse? And why should I execrate him whom Jehovah has not execrated?
9 For I will see it from the top of the rocks, and from the hills I will look at it; Behold, a people will dwell securely, And will not be numbered among the nations.
10 Who will count the dust of Jacob, Or the number of the fourth part of Israel? May I die the death of the upright, And my end be like yours.
11 Then Balak said to Balaam, What have you done to me? I have brought you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have uttered blessings.
12 He answered and said, Shall I not be careful to say whatever the Lord puts in my mouth?
13 And Balak said, Please come with me to another place from which you will see them; You will only see the closest ones, and you will not see them all; and from there you will curse them to me.
14 And he brought him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and he built seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on each altar.
15 Then he said to Balak, Stand here by your burnt offering, and I will go and meet God there.
16 And Jehovah went out to meet Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said to him, Return to Balak, and say thus to him.
17 And he came to him, and, behold, he stood by his burnt offering, and with him the princes of Moab; And Balak said unto him, What hath the Lord said?
18 Then he took the parable from him, and said, Balak, arise and hear; Hear my words, son of Zippor:
19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent. He said, and he will not do it? He spoke, and he will not execute it?
20 Behold, I have received command to bless; He gave blessing, and I will not be able to revoke it.
21 He has not noticed iniquity in Jacob, Nor has he seen perversity in Israel. Jehovah his God is with him, and the joy of a king is in him.
22 God has brought them out of Egypt; He has strength like a buffalo.
23 For there is no omen against Jacob, nor divination against Israel. As now, it will be said of Jacob and Israel: What God has done!
24 Behold, the people will rise up like a lion, And will rise like a lion; He will not lie down until he devours the prey, And drinks the blood of the dead.
25 Then Balak said to Balaam, Since you do not curse him, do not bless him either.
26 Balaam answered and said to Balak, Have I not told you that whatever the Lord tells me, that is what I must do?
27 And Balak said to Balaam, Come, I pray thee, I will take thee to another place; Perhaps it will seem good to God that you curse him to me from there.
28 And Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, which overlooks the desert.
29 Then Balaam said to Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare here seven calves and seven rams for me.
30 And Balak did as Balaam told him; and he offered a bullock and a ram on each altar.
1 When Balaam saw that it seemed good to Jehovah that he should bless Israel, he did not go, as the first and second time, in search of an omen, but he set his face toward the desert;
2 And lifting up his eyes, he saw Israel housed by his tribes; and the Spirit of God came upon him.
3 Then he took the parable from him, and said: Balaam the son of Beor said, And the man with open eyes said;
4 He said he who heard the sayings of God, He who saw the vision of the Almighty; Fallen, but open his eyes:
5 How beautiful are your tents, O Jacob, Your habitations, O Israel!
6 They are spread out like streams, like gardens by the river, like aloes planted by Jehovah, like cedars by the waters.
7 Waters will drip from his hands, and his descendants will be many waters; He will exalt his king more than Agag, and his kingdom will be magnified.
8 God brought him out of Egypt; He has strength like a buffalo. He will devour the enemy nations, He will break their bones, And he will pierce them with his arrows.
9 He will bow down to lie down like a lion, And like a lioness; who will wake him up? Blessed are those who bless you, and cursed are those who curse you. Balaam Prophecy
10 Then Balak’s anger was kindled against Balaam, and he clapped his hands and said to him, “I have called you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have already blessed them three times.”
11 Now flee to your place; I said I would honor you, but behold, Jehovah has deprived you of honor.
12 And Balaam answered him, Did I not also declare it to your messengers whom you sent to me, saying:
13 If Balak gave me his house full of silver and gold, I will not be able to go beyond the word of Jehovah to do anything good or bad with me. discretion, but what Jehovah speaks, that will I say?
14 Behold, I am going now to my people; Therefore, come, I will tell you what this people will do to your people in the last days.
15 And he took the parable from him, and said: Balaam the son of Beor said, Said the man of open eyes;
16 He said he who heard the sayings of Jehovah, And he who knows the knowledge of the Most High, He who saw the vision of the Almighty; Fallen, but open his eyes:
17 I will see him, but not now; I will look at it, but not closely; He will come forth as a STAR from Jacob, and a scepter will arise from Israel, and will strike the temples of Moab, and will destroy all the children of Seth.
18 Edom will be taken, Seir will also be taken by his enemies, And Israel will behave manfully.
19 Out of Jacob will come the ruler, and will destroy what is left of the city.
20 And seeing Amalek, he took up the parable of him and said, Amalek, head of nations; But in the end he will perish forever.
21 And when he saw the Kenite, he took the parable from him and said, “Your habitation is strong; Put your nest on the rock;
22 For the Kenite will be driven out, When Assyria will take you captive.
23 He took up the parable from him again, and said, Alas! Who will live when God does these things?
24 Ships will come from the coast of Chittim, and they will afflict Assyria, they will also afflict Eber; But he too will perish forever.
25 Then Balaam arose and departed, and returned to his place; and Balak also went his way.
1 Israel dwelt in Shittim; and the people began to commit fornication with the daughters of Moab,
2 who invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.
3 So the people came to Baal-peor; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel.
4 And Jehovah said to Moses, Take all the princes of the people, and hang them before Jehovah before the sun, and the fierce anger of Jehovah will depart from Israel.
5 Then Moses said to the judges of Israel, Kill each of you those of your people who have joined together with Baal-peor.
6 And, behold, a man of the children of Israel came and brought a Midianite woman to his brothers, in the sight of Moses and all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
7 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, and he arose from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;
8 And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and he speared them both, the man of Israel, and the woman by her belly. And the mortality of the children of Israel ceased.
9 And twenty-four thousand died of that slaughter.
10 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
11 Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned away my anger from the children of Israel, being carried away by jealousy among them; Therefore I have not consumed the children of Israel in my zeal.
12 Therefore tell them: Behold, I establish my covenant of peace with him;
13 And he, and his descendants after him, will have the covenant of the perpetual priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the children of Israel.
14 And the name of the man who was killed with the Midianite woman was Zimri the son of Salu, chief of a family of the tribe of Simeon.
15 And the name of the dead Midianite woman was Cozbi daughter of Zur, prince of people, father of a family in Midian.
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17 Harass the Midianites and strike them down,
18 because they have afflicted you with their tricks by which they have deceived you concerning Baal-peor, and concerning Cozbi the daughter of the prince of Midian, his sister, who was killed on the day of death because of Baal-peor.
1 It came to pass after the plague, that Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying,
2 Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, from twenty years old and upward, by the house of their fathers, all who They can go to war in Israel.
3 And Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them in the fields of Moab, by the Jordan opposite Jericho, saying:
4 You shall number the people from twenty years old and upward, as Jehovah commanded Moses and the children of Israel who had come out of the land of Egypt.

52 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
53 To these the land will be divided as an inheritance, according to the number of names.
54 To those who are more you will give a greater inheritance, and to those who are few a lesser inheritance; and to each one will be given his inheritance according to what is counted from him.
55 But the land will be divided by lot; and by the names of the tribes of their fathers they will inherit.
56 According to the lot, their inheritance will be divided between the great and the small.

59 Amram’s wife was named Jochebed, daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; She bore Amram Aaron and Moses, and his sister Miriam.
60 And to Aaron were born Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
61 But Nadab and Abihu died when they offered strange fire before Jehovah.
62 Twenty-three thousand of the Levites were counted, all males from one month old and older; for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because they were not to be given an inheritance among the children of Israel.
63 These are those counted by Moses and Eleazar the priest, whom the children of Israel counted in the fields of Moab, by the Jordan opposite Jericho.
64 And among these there was none of those numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest, who numbered the children of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai.
65 For Jehovah had said of them: They will die in the wilderness; and there was no man left of them, but Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.
1 The daughters of Zelophehad the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came from the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph, whose names were Maala, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah;
2 And they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest, and before the princes and all the congregation, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and said,
3 Our father died in the wilderness; and he was not in the company of those who were gathered together against Jehovah in the company of Korah, but in his own sin he died, and had no children.
4 Why will our father’s name be taken away from his family because he had no son? Give us an inheritance among our father’s brothers.
5 And Moses brought his cause before Jehovah.
6 And Jehovah answered Moses, saying,
7 The daughters of Zelophehad say well; You will give them possession of an inheritance among their father’s brothers, and you will transfer their father’s inheritance to them.
8 And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, When a man dies childless, you shall pass his inheritance on to his daughter.
9 If he does not have a daughter, you will give his inheritance to his brothers;
10 And if he has no brothers, you will give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
11 And if his father has no brothers, you shall give his inheritance to his nearest relative of his lineage, and it shall be his; and for the children of Israel this will be a statute of right, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
12 Jehovah said to Moses, Go up to this mount Abarim, and you will see the land that I have given to the children of Israel.
13 And after you have seen it, you also will be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron was gathered.
14 For you rebelled against my command in the wilderness of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, not sanctifying me in the waters in their sight. These are the waters of the quarrel of Kadesh in the desert of Zin.
15 Then Moses answered Jehovah, saying,
16 Let Jehovah, God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
17 Let him go out before them and let him enter before them, let him bring them out and bring them in, so that the congregation of the Lord may not be like sheep without a shepherd.
18 And Jehovah said to Moses, Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is a spirit, and lay your hand on him;
19 and you shall set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and you will give him the charge in their presence.
20 And you will put your dignity upon him, so that all the congregation of the children of Israel will obey him.
21 He will stand before Eleazar the priest, and will inquire of him about the judgment of the Urim before the Lord; At his word they will go out, and at his word they will enter, he and all the children of Israel with him, and all the congregation.
22 And Moses did as Jehovah had commanded him, for he took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation;
23 And he laid his hands on him, and gave him charge, as Jehovah had commanded by the hand of Moses.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel, and say to them: My offering, my bread with my offerings made by fire for a pleasing odor to me, you shall keep, offering it to me in due season.
3 And you shall say to them, This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to Jehovah: two lambs without blemish of one year old, each day, shall be the continual burnt offering.
4 You shall offer one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at evening;
5 and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with a quarter of a hin of crushed olive oil, as an offering.

40 And Moses said to the children of Israel according to all that Jehovah had commanded him.
1 Moses spoke to the princes of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, This is what Jehovah has commanded.
2 When anyone makes a vow to Jehovah, or takes an oath binding his soul with obligation, he will not break his word; He will do according to everything that came out of his mouth.
3 But the woman, when she makes a vow to Jehovah, and binds herself with obligation in her father’s house, in her youth;
4 If her father hears her vow, and the obligation with which she bound her soul, and her father remains silent about it, all her vows will be firm, and every obligation with which she has bound her soul she will be firm.
5 But if her father forbids him the day that he hears all her vows and her obligations with which she has bound her soul, they will not be firm; and Jehovah will forgive her, because her father forbade it to her.
6 But if she is married and makes vows, or utters from her lips something by which she binds her soul;
7 If her husband hears it, and when he hears it he is silent about it, her vows will be firm, and the obligation with which he bound her soul will be firm.
8 But if when her husband heard it, she forbade him, then the vow that she made, and what she pronounced from her lips with which she bound her soul, will be void; and Jehovah will forgive her.
9 But every vow of a widow or divorced woman, with which she binds her soul, will be firm.
10 And if she has made a vow in her husband’s house, and has bound her soul with the obligation of an oath,
11 if her husband heard, and remained silent about it and did not forbid her, then all her vows will be firm, and every obligation with which she may have bound his soul, he will be firm.
12 But if her husband annulled them on the day he heard them, everything that came from her lips regarding her vows and regarding the obligation of her soul will be void; Her husband annulled them, and Jehovah will forgive her.
13 Every vow and every oath binding on her soul will be confirmed by her husband, or annulled by her husband.
14 But if her husband remains silent about it from day to day, then she confirmed all her vows, and all the obligations that are upon her; She confirmed them, because she kept silent about it the day she heard it.
15 But if he nullifies them after hearing them, then he will bear her sin.
16 These are the ordinances which Jehovah commanded Moses between his man and his wife, and between his father and his daughter during his youth in his father’s house.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Take revenge for the children of Israel against the Midianites; then you will be gathered to your people.
3 Then Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm some of you for war, and go against Midian and execute the vengeance of Jehovah in Midian.
4 You shall send a thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of the children of Israel to war.
5 Thus were they given out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand for each tribe, twelve thousand on the warpath.
6 And Moses sent them to war; he sent a thousand from each tribe; and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest went to war with the vessels of the sanctuary, and with the trumpets in his hand to blow.
7 And they fought against Midian, as Jehovah commanded Moses, and they killed every male.
8 They also killed among their dead the kings of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba, five kings of Midian; They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
9 And the children of Israel took captive the wives of the Midianites, their children, and all their cattle and all their livestock; and they took away all their property,
10 and burned all their cities, villages, and habitations.
11 And they took all the spoil, and all the booty, both of man and beast.
12 And they brought Moses and Eleazar the priest, and the congregation of the children of Israel, the captives and the spoil and the spoil to the camp, on the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan opposite Jericho.
13 And Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside the camp.
14 And Moses was angry with the captains of the army, with the leaders of thousands and hundreds who were returning from the war,
15 and Moses said to them, Why have you left all the women alive?
16 Behold, by the counsel of Balaam they caused the children of Israel to transgress against Jehovah concerning Baal-peor, so that there was a death in the congregation of Jehovah.
17 Now therefore kill all the males among the children; Also kill every woman who has known a man carnally.
18 But you shall leave all the girls among women who have not known a man alive.
19 And you, whoever has killed a person, and whoever has touched the dead, remain outside the camp seven days, and on the third day and on the seventh you will purify yourselves and your captives.
20 Likewise you shall purify every garment, and every garment of skin, and every work of goat’s hair, and every utensil of wood.
21 And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who came from the war: This is the ordinance of the law which Jehovah commanded Moses:
22 Indeed, gold and silver, bronze, iron, tin and lead,
23 everything What resists fire, you will make it pass through fire, and it will be clean, although it will be purified in the waters of purification; and you will make everything that does not resist fire pass through water.
24 Furthermore you will wash your clothes on the seventh day, and thus you will be clean; and then you will enter the camp.
25 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
26 Take the account of the plunder that has been taken, both of people and of beasts, you and Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the fathers of the congregation;
27 and you will divide the spoils in halves between those who fought, those who went out to war, and the entire congregation.
28 And you shall set aside for Jehovah the tribute of the men of war who went out to war; out of five hundred, one, both of the people and of the oxen, of the donkeys and of the sheep.
29 Of half of them you shall take it; and you shall give to Eleazar the priest the offering of Jehovah.
30 And of the half belonging to the children of Israel you will take one in fifty of the people, of the oxen, of the donkeys, of the sheep and of every animal, and you will give them to the Levites, who have the care of the tabernacle of Jehovah.
31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
32 And the booty, the rest of the booty that the men of war took, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 seventy-two thousand oxen,
34 and sixty-one thousand donkeys.
35 As for people, of women who had never known a man, there were thirty-two thousand in all.
36 And the half, the portion of those who had gone out to war, was the number of three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep;
37 And the tribute of the sheep to Jehovah was six hundred and seventy-five.
38 Of the oxen, thirty-six thousand; and of them the tribute to Jehovah was seventy-two.
39 Of the donkeys, thirty thousand five hundred; and of them the tribute to Jehovah was sixty-one.
40 And of the people, sixteen thousand; and of them the tribute to Jehovah, thirty-two persons.
41 And Moses gave the tribute, as a heave offering to Jehovah, to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
42 And of half for the children of Israel, which Moses separated from the men who had gone to war
43 (half for the congregation was: of the sheep, three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred;
44 of the oxen, thirty and six thousand;
45 of the donkeys, thirty thousand five hundred;
46 and of the people, sixteen thousand);
47 Of the half, therefore, for the children of Israel, Moses took one in fifty, both of the people and of the animals, and gave them to the Levites, who had the care of the tabernacle of Jehovah, as Jehovah had commanded. to Moses.
48 The commanders of the thousands of that army, the commanders of thousands and hundreds, came to Moses,
49 and said to Moses: Your servants have taken account of the men of war who are in our power, and none of us has been missing.
50 Therefore we have offered to Jehovah an offering, each one of what he has found, gold jewelry, bracelets, bracelets, rings, earrings and chains, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah.
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest received their gold, jewels, all made.
52 And all the gold of the offering that the leaders of thousands and hundreds offered to Jehovah was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53 The men of the army had taken plunder, each one for himself.
54 So Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the leaders of thousands and hundreds, and brought it to the tabernacle of the congregation, as a memorial for the children of Israel before Jehovah.
1 The children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very vast multitude of cattle; and they saw the land of Jazer and Gilead, and the land seemed to them a place of cattle.
2 So the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben came and spoke to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying:
3 Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Eleale, Shebam, Nebo and Beon,
4 The land that Jehovah smote before the congregation of Israel is a land of cattle, and your servants have cattle.
5 Therefore, they said, if we find favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as an inheritance, and do not make us cross the Jordan.
6 And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Will your brothers go to war, and will you stay here?
7 And why do you discourage the children of Israel, so that they do not go over to the land that Jehovah has given them?
8 This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.
9 They went up to the brook Eshcol, and when they saw the land, they discouraged the children of Israel from coming to the land that Jehovah had given them.
10 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled, and he swore, saying,
11 The men who came up out of Egypt from twenty years old and upward shall not see the land which I promised with an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they were not perfect after me. ;
12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, who followed Jehovah perfectly.
13 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander for forty years in the wilderness, until all that generation that had done evil before Jehovah was destroyed.
14 And behold, you have succeeded in the place of your fathers, a seed of sinful men, to add yet to the wrath of the Lord against Israel.
15 If you turn back from him, he will leave you again in the wilderness, and you will destroy all this people.
16 Then they came to Moses and said, We will build here sheepfolds for our cattle, and cities for our children;
17 And we will arm ourselves, and go diligently before the children of Israel, until we bring them into their place; and our children will remain in fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the country.
18 We will not return to our homes until the children of Israel each possess his inheritance.
19 For we will not take an inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan or beyond, because we will already have our inheritance on this other side of the Jordan to the east.
twentyThen Moses said to them, If you do so, if you prepare to go before Jehovah to war,
21 and all of you cross the Jordan armed before Jehovah, until he has driven out his enemies before him,
22 and the country subdued before Jehovah; then you will return, and you will be free from guilt towards Jehovah, and towards Israel; and this land will be your inheritance before Jehovah.
23 But if you do not do so, behold, you have sinned before Jehovah; and know that your sin will overtake you.
24 Build cities for your children, and sheepfolds for your sheep, and do what your mouth has declared.
25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, Your servants will do as my lord has commanded.
26 Our children, our women, our livestock and all our livestock will be there in the cities of Gilead;
27 And your servants, all armed for war, will go before Jehovah to war, as my lord says.
28 Then Moses entrusted them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel.
29 And Moses said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, all armed for war before Jehovah, after the country is subdued before you, you will give them the land of Gilead as a possession;
30 But if they do not come over armed with you, then they will have possession among you, in the land of Canaan.
31 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, We will do what Jehovah has said to your servants.
32 We will go armed before Jehovah into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our inheritance will be on this side of the Jordan.
33 So Moses gave to the children of Gad, to the children of Reuben, and to the half tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land with its cities and its territories, the cities of the country around.
34 And the sons of Gad built Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
35 Ataroth-zophan, Jazer, Jogbeha,
36 Beth-nimra and Beth-aran, fortified cities; They also made sheepfolds.
37 And the sons of Reuben built Heshbon, Eleale, Kiriathaim,
38 Nebo, Baal-meon (names changed) and Sibma; and they gave names to the cities they built.
39 And the sons of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and drove out the Amorite that was in it.
40 And Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh, and he lived there.
41 Jair son of Manasseh also went and took his villages, and called them Havot-jair.
42 Likewise Noba went and took Kenath and his villages, and called it Noba, according to his name.
1 These are the days of the children of Israel, who came out of the land of Egypt by their armies, under the command of Moses and Aaron.
2 Moses wrote down his goings according to his journeys at the command of Jehovah. These, then, are his days according to his departures.
3 They left Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; On the second day of the Passover the children of Israel went out with a mighty hand, in the sight of all the Egyptians,
4 while the Egyptians were burying those whom the Lord had struck to death among them, all the firstborn; Jehovah had also made judgments against his gods.
5 So the children of Israel went out from Rameses and camped at Sukkot.
6 They left Sukkot and camped at Etam, which is on the edge of the desert.
7 They left Etam and returned to Pi-hahiroth, which is before Baal-zephon, and camped before Migdol.
8 They left Pi-hahiroth and passed through the middle of the sea into the wilderness, and they traveled for three days’ journey through the wilderness of Etam, and camped at Marah.
9 They left Marah and came to Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees; and they camped there.
10 They left Elim and camped by the Red Sea.
11 They left the Red Sea and camped in the wilderness of Sin.
12 They left the wilderness of Sin and camped at Dofcah.
13 They left Dofkah and camped at Alus.
14 They left Alush and camped at Rephidim, where the people had no water to drink.
15 They left Rephidim and camped in the desert of Sinai.
16 They left the Wilderness of Sinai and camped at Kibrothataava.
17 They left Kibroth-hataava and camped in Hazeroth.
18 They left Hazeroth and camped at Rithmah.
19 They left Rithmah and camped at Rimmon Peres.
20 They left Rimmon Peres and camped at Libnah.
21 They left Libnah and camped at Rissa.
22 They left Rissa and camped at Ceelata.
23 They left Ceelata and camped on Mount Sepher.
24 They left Mount Sepher and camped at Haradah.
25 They left Harada and camped at Maceloth.
26 They left Maceloth and camped at Tahath.
27 They left Tahat and camped at Tara.
28 They left Tara and camped at Mithcah.
29 They left Mithcah and camped at Hasmona.
30 They left Hasmona and camped at Moserot.
31They left Moserot and camped at Bene-jaakan.
32 They left Bene-jaakan and camped on Mount Gidgad.
33 They left Mount Gidgad and camped at Jotbatha.
34 They left Jothbatha and camped at Abronah.
35 They left Abrona and camped at Ezion Geber.
36 They left Ezion-geber and camped in the wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.
37 And they left Kadesh and camped on Mount Hor, in the extremity of the country of Edom.
38 And Aaron the priest went up to Mount Hor, according to the word of Jehovah, and there he died, forty years after the departure of the children of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fifth month, on the first day of the month.
39 Aaron was one hundred and twenty-three years old when he died on Mount Hor.
40 And the Canaanite king of Arad, who dwelt in the Negev in the land of Canaan, heard that the children of Israel had come.
41 And they left Mount Hor and camped at Zalmona.
42 They left Zalmona and camped at Punon.
43 They left Punon and camped at Oboth.
44 They left Oboth and camped at Ije-abarim, on the border of Moab.
45 They left Ije-abarim and camped at Dibon-gad.
46 They left Dibon-gad and camped at Almon-diblataim.
47 They left Almon-diblataim and camped in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo.
48 They left the mountains of Abarim and camped in the fields of Moab, by the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
49 Finally they camped by the Jordan, from Beth-jesimot to Abel-shitim, in the fields of Moab.
50 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the fields of Moab by the Jordan opposite Jericho, saying:
51 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: When you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
52 you will drive out before you all the inhabitants of the land, and you will destroy all their stone idols, and all their molten images, and you will destroy all their high places;
53 and you will drive out the inhabitants of the land, and you will dwell in it; because I have given it to you to be your property.
54 And you will inherit the land by lot for your families; To the many you will give much as an inheritance, and to the few you will give less as an inheritance; Wherever luck falls, there each one will have it; through the tribes of your fathers you will inherit.
55 And if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land before you, it will come to pass that those whom you leave among them will be thorns in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they will afflict you in the land where you live.
56 Furthermore, I will do to you as I intended to do to them.
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel and say to them: When you have entered the land of Canaan, that is, the land that is to be your inheritance, the land of Canaan according to its borders,
3 You will have the south side from the wilderness of Zin to the border of Edom; and it will be the southern limit at the end of the Salt Sea towards the east.
4 This border will go around you from the south to the ascent of Acrabim, and will pass to Zin; and it will extend from the south to Kadeshbarnea; and he will continue to Hasar-adar, and will pass to Asmon.
5 It will surround this border from Asmon to the torrent of Egypt, and its borders will be to the west.
6 And the western boundary will be the Great Sea; this limit will be the western limit.
7 The northern boundary will be this: from the Great Sea you will mark Mount Hor.
8 From Mount Hor you will mark out the entrance to Hamath, and that boundary will continue to Zedad;
9 and it will continue this border to Ziphron, and will end in Hazarenan; This will be the northern limit.
10 You shall mark the eastern border from Hazar-enan to Shepham;
11 and this border will go down from Shepham to Riblah, east of Ain; and the border will descend, and will come to the coast of the sea of Cinereth, to the east.
12 Then this border will descend to the Jordan, and will end in the Salt Sea: this will be your land along its borders all around.
13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which shall be divided unto you as inheritances by lot, which Jehovah commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe;
14 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the houses of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the houses of their fathers, and the half tribe of Manasseh, have taken their inheritance.
15 Two and a half tribes took their inheritance on this side of the Jordan opposite Jericho on the east, at the rising of the sun.
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17 These are the names of the men who will divide the land to you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
18 You shall also take a prince from each tribe to give possession of the land.
19 And these are the names of the men: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
20 Of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Amiud.
21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chishlon.
22 Of the tribe of the children of Dan, prince Buki son of Jogli.
23 Of the children of Joseph: of the tribe of the children of Manasseh, prince Haniel the son of Ephod,
24 and of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, prince Kemuel the son of Siphthan.
25 Of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, prince Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
26 Of the tribe of the children of Issachar, prince Paltiel the son of Azan.
27 Of the tribe of the children of Asher, prince Ahiud the son of Shelomi.
28 And of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, prince Pedael the son of Amiud.
29 Jehovah commanded these to distribute the inheritance to the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
1 Jehovah spoke to Moses in the fields of Moab, by the Jordan opposite Jericho, saying:
2 Command the children of Israel to give to the Levites, out of the possession of their inheritance, cities to live in; You will also give to the Levites the common lands of those cities around them.
3 And they will have the cities to live in, and their common lands will be for their animals, for their livestock, and for all their livestock.
4 And the common lands of the cities that you will give to the Levites will be a thousand cubits around, from the wall of the city outward.
5 Then you shall measure outside the city on the east side two thousand cubits, on the south side two thousand cubits, on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits, and the city will be in the middle; They will have this for the common lands of the cities.
6 And of the cities that you will give to the Levites, six cities will be of refuge, which you will give so that the murderer may take refuge there; and besides these you will give forty-two cities.
7 All the cities that you will give to the Levites will be forty-eight cities with their suburbs.
8 And as for the cities that you give of the inheritance of the children of Israel, from him who has much you will take much, and from him who has little you will take little; Each one will give of his cities to the Levites according to the possession that he will inherit.
9 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:
10 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: When you have crossed over the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
11 you will appoint cities for yourselves, cities of refuge you will have, where the murderer who strikes some unintentional death.
12 And those cities will be your refuge from the avenger, and the murderer will not die until he enters judgment before the congregation.
13 Of the cities therefore that you will give, you will have six cities of refuge.
14 Three cities you will give on this side of the Jordan, and three cities you will give in the land of Canaan, which will be cities of refuge.
15 These six cities will be a refuge for the children of Israel, and for the foreigner and whoever lives among them, so that anyone who accidentally kills another may flee there.
16 If he strikes him with an iron instrument and dies, he is a murderer; the murderer will die.
17 And if with a stone in his hand, which he can kill, he strikes him and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer will die.
18 And if with a wooden instrument in his hand that can kill, he strikes him and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer will die.
19 The avenger of blood, he will put to death the murderer; When he finds him, he will kill him.
20 And if he pushes him out of hatred, or throws something at him by means of snares, and he dies;
21 or out of enmity he smote him with his hand, and he died, the smiter shall die; he is a murderer; The avenger of blood will kill the murderer when he finds him.
22 But if he accidentally pushed him without enmity, or threw any instrument at him without snares,
23 or, without seeing him, he caused some stone to fall on him that could have killed him, and he died, and he was not his enemy, nor did he seek his harm;
24 then the congregation will judge between the one who caused death and the avenger of blood according to these laws;
25 and the congregation will deliver the murderer from the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation will bring him back to his city of refuge, where he had taken refuge; and he will dwell in it until the high priest, who was anointed with the holy oil, dies.
26 But if the murderer goes outside the limits of his city of refuge, in which he took refuge,
27 and the avenger of blood finds him outside the limits of the city of his refuge, and the avenger of blood kills the murderer , you will not be blamed for it;
28 For in his city of refuge he must dwell until the high priest dies; and after the high priest has died, the murderer will return to the land of his possession.
29 These things shall be a legal ordinance for you throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.
30 Whoever kills anyone, the murderer will die at the testimony of witnesses; but a single witness will not bear witness against a person so that he dies.
31 And you will not take a price for the life of the murderer, because he is condemned to death; he will inevitably die.
32 Nor shall you take a price from him who fled to his city of refuge, to live again in his land, until the high priest dies.
33 And you shall not defile the land where you are; for this blood will defile the earth, and the earth will not be atoned for by the blood that was shed on it, but by the blood of him who shed it.
34 Therefore do not defile the land where you live, among which I live; for I, Jehovah, dwell among the children of Israel.
1 The princes of the fathers of the family of Gilead the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the children of Joseph, arrived; and they spoke before Moses and the princes, heads of the fathers’ houses of the children of Israel,
2 and said, Jehovah commanded my lord to give the land by lot to the children of Israel for a possession; Jehovah has also commanded my lord to give possession of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters.
3 And if they marry any of the children of the other tribes of the children of Israel, their inheritance will thus be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they join; and it will be taken away from the portion of our inheritance.
4 And when the jubilee of the children of Israel comes, their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe of their husbands; so their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
5 Then Moses commanded the children of Israel by the commandment of Jehovah, saying, The tribe of the children of Joseph speak righteously.
6 This is what Jehovah has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying: Let them marry as they please, but they shall marry in the family of their father’s tribe,
7 so that the inheritance of the children of Israel may not be transferred. from tribe to tribe; for each of the children of Israel will be bound to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
8 And any daughter who has an inheritance in the tribes of the children of Israel shall marry one of the family of her father’s tribe, so that the children of Israel may each possess the inheritance of their fathers,
9 and the inheritance rolling from one tribe to another, but each of the tribes of the children of Israel will be bound to its inheritance.
10 As Jehovah commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad.
11 And so Maala, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah and Noah, daughters of Zelophehad, married the sons of their paternal uncles.
12 They married into the family of the children of Manasseh, son of Joseph; and their inheritance remained in the tribe of their father’s family.
13 These are the commandments and statutes which Jehovah commanded by Moses to the children of Israel in the fields of Moab, by the Jordan, before Jericho.
