He said, "No, but you did laugh:' 1 6 Then the men set out from there, and they looked down toward Sodom.

every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city. 2s On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their
GENESIS 34:26-35:4 swords and came against the city while it felt secure and killed all the males. 26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and went away. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister. 2s They took their flocks and their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and in the field. 29 All their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and plundered. 30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me by making me stink to the in habitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household:' 31
But they said, "Should he treat our
sister like a prostitute?"

beyond the tower of Eder. 22
While Israel lived in that land,
Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine. And Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve. 23 The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob's firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Is sachar, and Zebulun. 24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. 2s The sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali. 26 The sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram. 27 And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned. 28 Now the days of Isaac were
1 80
years. 29 And Isaac
breathed his last, and he died and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
36
These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2 Esau
took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter3 of Zibeon the Hivite, 3 and 1 Ben-oni could mean son of my sorrow, or son of my strength 2 Benjamin means son of the right hand 3 Hebrew; Samaritan, Septuagint, Syriac son; also verse 1 4

The pit was empty; there was no water in it. 2s Then they sat down to eat.

And they drew Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and sold him 1 Or cisterns; also verses 22, 24

plentiful years. 35 And let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming and store up grain under the authority of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it. 36 That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine that are to occur in the land of Egypt, so

Joseph Rises to Power 37 This proposal pleased Pharaoh and all his servants. 38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?" 7 39 Then Pharaoh said to Jo seph, "Since God has shown you all
house, and all my people shall order
than you:' 41 And Pharaoh said to Jo seph, "See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt:' 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain about his neck. 43 And he made him ride in his second chariot. And they called out before him, "Bow the knee!"J Thus he set him over all
to
Pharaoh
and without your consent no one shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of Egypt:' 45 And Pharaoh called Jo seph's name Zaphenath-paneah. And he gave him in marriage Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On. So Joseph went out over the land of Egypt. 46 Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out

began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. 55 When all the land ofEgypt was fam ished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Pharaoh said to all the Egyp tians, "Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do:' 56 So when the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened all the storehousesJ and sold to the Egyp tians, for the famine was severe in the
grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.

Joseph's Brothers Go to Egypt When Jacob learned that there was grain for sale in Egypt, he
said to his sons, "Why do you look at one another?" 2 And he said, "Behold, I have heard that there is grain for for us there, that we may live and not die:' 3 So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt. 4 But Ja cob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with his brothers, for he feared that harm might happen to him. 5 Thus the sons of Israel came to 1 Manasseh sounds like the Hebrew for making to forget 2 Ephraim sounds like the Hebrew for makingfruitful J Hebrew all that was in them

Then I will re turn: " 6 And Pharaoh answered, "Go up, and bury your father, as he made you swear:' 7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. With him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt, s as well as all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their children, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen. 9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company. 10 When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is be yond the Jordan, they lamented there with a very great and grievous lam entation, and he made a mourning for his father seven days. 1 1 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaan ites, saw the mourning on the thresh ing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a

LEVITICUS 5:7- 1 5 7 "But if he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring to the LORD as his compensation for the sin that he has committed two turtledoves or two pi geons, 1 one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. s He shall bring them to the priest, who shall of fer first the one for the sin offering. He shall wring its head from its neck but shall not sever it completely, 9 and he shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, while the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the al tar; it is a sin offering. J O Then he shall offer the second for a burnt offering according to the rule. And the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin that he has committed, and he shall be forgiven. 11 "But if he cannot afford two tur tledoves or two pigeons, then he shall bring as his offering for the sin that he has committed a tenth of an ephah2 of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it and shall put no frank incense on it, for it is a sin offering. 12 And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take a handful of it as its memorial portion and burn this on the altar, on the LORD's food offerings; it is a sin offering. 1 3 Thus the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he has commit ted in any one of these things, and he shall be forgiven. And the remainder3 shall be for the priest, as in the grain offering:'

You shall bring it well mixed, in baked2 pieces like a grain offering, and offer it for a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 22 The priest from among Aaron's sons, who is anointed to suc ceed him, shall offer it to the LORD as decreed forever. The whole of it shall be burned. 23 Every grain offering of a priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten." 24 The Lo RD spoke to Moses, say ing, 2s "Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin of fering. In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD; it is most holy. 26 The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it.

But if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, that shall be scoured and rinsed in water. 29 Every male among the priests may eat of it; it is most holy. 30 But no sin offering shall be eaten from which any blood is brought into the tent of meet ing to make atonement in the Holy Place; it shall be burned up with fire. "This is the law of the guilt offer ing. It is most holy. 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the guilt offering, and its blood shall be thrown against the sides of the altar. 3 And all its fat shall be offered, the fat tail, the fat that cov ers the entrails, 4 the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys. S The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering to the LORD; it is a guilt of fering. 6 Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy. 7 The guilt offer ing is just like the sin offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with it shall have it. s And the priest who offers any man's burnt offering shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering that he has offered. 9 And every grain offering baked in the oven and all that is pre pared on a pan or a griddle shall be long to the priest who offers it. 10 And

And he shall wash his clothes and be clean. 7 But if the eruption spreads in the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall appear again before the priest. B And the priest shall look, and if the eruption has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him un clean; it is a leprous disease. 9 "When a man is afflicted with a leprous disease, he shall be brought to the priest, 10 and the priest shall look. And if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling, 1 1 it is a chronic leprous disease in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not shut him up, for he is unclean. 1 2 And if the leprous disease breaks out in the skin, so that the leprous disease cov ers all the skin of the diseased person from head to foot, so far as the priest can see, 13 then the priest shall look, and if the leprous disease has covered all his body, he shall pronounce him clean of the disease; it has all turned white, and he is clean. 14 But when

And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. 26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand, 27 and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD. 2s And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, in the place where the blood of the guilt offering was put. 29 And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD. 30 And he shall offer, of the turtledoves or pigeons, whichever he can afford, 3 1 one 1 for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, along with a grain offering. And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for him who is being cleansed. 32 This is the law for him in whom is a case of lep rous disease, who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing."

He shall kill the bull as a sin offering for himself. 12 And he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before the LORD, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and he shall bring it inside the veil 13 and put the incense on the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is over the testimony, so that he does not die. 14 And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the front of the mercy seat on the east side, and in front of the mercy seat he shall sprin kle some of the blood with his finger seven times. i s "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering that is for the people and bring its blood inside the veil and do with its blood as he did with the blood of the bull, sprinkling it over the mercy seat and in front of the mercy seat. 16 Thus he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleannesses of the people of Israel and because of their transgres sions, all their sins. And so he shall do for the tent of meeting, which dwells with them in the midst of their un cleannesses. 17 No one may be in the tent of meeting from the time he en ters to make atonement in the Holy 1 The meaning of Azazel is uncertain; possibly the name of a place or a demon, traditionally a scapegoat; also verses 1 0, 26

And he shall put them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness. 22 The goat shall bear all their iniquities on itself to a remote area, and he shall let the goat go free in the wilderness. 23 " Then Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting and shall take off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the Holy Place and shall leave them there. 24 And he shall bathe his body in water in a holy place and put on his garments and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people and make atonement for himself and for the people. 2s And the fat of the sin offer ing he shall burn on the altar. 26 And he who lets the goat go to Azazel shall

Whoever eats it shall be cut off. i s And every person who eats what dies of itself or what is torn by beasts, whether he is a native or a sojourner, shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be un clean until the evening; then he shall be clean. 16 But if he does not wash them or bathe his flesh, he shall bear his iniquity."

You shall not walk in their statutes. 4 You shall follow my rules3 and keep my statutes and walk in them.

J S You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your son's wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness. 16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife; it is your brother's nakedness. 17 You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and of her daughter, and you shall not take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter to uncover her nakedness; they are relatives; it is depravity. i s And you shall not take a woman as a rival wife to her sister, uncovering her nakedness while her sister is still alive. 1 9 "You shall not approach a woman

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 2 "Take a census of the sons of Kohath from among the sons of Levi, by their clans and their fathers' houses, 3 from thirty years old up to fifty years old, all who can come on duty, to do the work in the tent of meeting. 4 This is the service of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting: the most holy things. s When the camp is to set out, Aaron and his sons shall go in and take down the veil of the screen and cover the ark of the testimony with it. 6 Then they shall put on it a covering of goatskin 1 and spread on top of that a cloth all of blue, and shall put in its poles. 7 And over the table of the bread of the Pres ence they shall spread a cloth of blue and put on it the plates, the dishes for incense, the bowls, and the flagons for the drink offering; the regular show bread also shall be on it. B Then they shall spread over them a cloth of scar let and cover the same with a covering of goatskin, and shall put in its poles. 9 And they shall take a cloth of blue and cover the lampstand for the light, with its lamps, its tongs, its trays, and all the vessels for oil with which it is supplied. 10 And they shall put it with all its utensils in a covering of goat1 The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain; compare Exodus 25:5

These are the things of the tent of meeting that the sons of Kohath are to carry. 16 "And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall have charge of the oil for the light, the fragrant incense, the regular grain offering, and the anoint ing oil, with the oversight of the whole tabernacle and all that is in it, of the sanctuary and its vessels." 1 7 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, is "Let not the tribe of the clans of the Kohathites be de stroyed from among the Levites, 19 but deal thus with them, that they may live and not die when they come near to the most holy things: Aaron and his sons shall go in and appoint them each to his task and to his burden,

And they shall do all that needs to be done with regard to them. 27 All the service of the sons of the Gershonites shall be at the com mand of Aaron and his sons, in all that they are to carry and in all that they have to do. And you shall assign to their charge all that they are to car ry. 2s This is the service of the clans of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting, and their guard duty is to be under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 29 "As for the sons of Merari, you shall list them by their clans and their fathers' houses. 3 0 From thirty years old up to fifty years old, you shall list them, everyone who can come on duty, to do the service of the tent of meeting. 31 And this is what they are charged to carry, as the whole of their service in the tent of meeting: the frames of the tabernacle, with its bars, pillars, and bases, 32 and the pillars around the court with their

Israel Leaves Sinai
1 1 I n t h e second year, in t h e sec ond month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud lifted from over the tabernacle of the testimony, 12 and the people of Israel set out by stages from the wilderness of Sinai. And the cloud settled down in the wilderness of Paran. 1 3 They set out for the first time at the command of the LORD by Moses. 14 The standard of the camp of the people of Judah set out first by their companies, and over their company was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. i s And over the company of the tribe of the people of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar. 16 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon. 1 7 And when the tabernacle was taken down, the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who carried the tabernacle, set out. i s And the stan dard of the camp of Reuben set out by their companies, and over their com pany was Elizur the son of Shedeur. 1 9 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Simeon was Shelu miel the son of Zurishaddai. 20 And over the company of the tribe of the

The trumpets shall be to you for a per petual statute throughout your gen erations. 9 And when you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be remembered before the LORD your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies. 1 0 On the day of your gladness also, and at your ap pointed feasts and at the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings.

32 While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 And those who found him gather ing sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation. 34 They put him in custody, because it had not been made clear what should be done to him. 35 And the LORD said to Moses, "The man shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp:' 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, as the LORD commanded Moses.

the tent of meeting. And behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. 43 And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting, 44 and the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 45 "Get away from the midst of this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment." And they fell on their faces. 46 And Moses said to Aaron, "Take your censer, and put fire on it from off the altar and lay incense on it and carry it quickly to the congregation and make atone ment for them, for wrath has gone out from the LORD; the plague has begun." 47 So Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the midst of the assembly. And behold, the plague had already begun among the people. And he put on the incense and made atone ment for the people. 48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped. 49 Now those who died in the plague were 1 4,700, besides those who died in the affair of Korab. 50 And Aaron returned to Mo ses at the entrance of the tent of meet ing, when the plague was stopped.

Aaron's Staff B uds 7
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Speak to the people of Israel, and get from them staffs, one for each fathers' house, from all their chiefs according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. Write each man's name on his staff, 3 and write Aaron's name on the staff of Levi. For there shall be one staff for the head of each fathers' house. 4 Then you shall de posit them in the tent of meeting be fore the testimony, where I meet with you. 5 And the staff of the man whom I choose shall sprout. Thus I will make to cease from me the grumblings of I Ch 1 7 : 1 6 in Hebrew
362 i �1;1 21 : tJ�.,,� tJJ"?n tJi1 iWN ?NiiV"
NUMBERS 1 7:2 1 [6] - 1 8:2 t h e people o f Israel, which they grum ble against you:' 6 Moses spoke to the people of Israel. And all their chiefs gave him staffs, one for each chief, according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. And the staff of Aaron was among their staffs. 7 And Moses deposited the staffs before the LORD in the tent of the testimony. s On the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony, and behold, the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds. 9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs from before the LORD to all the people of Israel. And they looked, and each man took his staff. 10 And the LORD said to Moses, "Put back the staff of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebels, that you may make an end of their grumblings against me, lest they die:' 11 Thus did Moses; as the LORD commanded him, so he did. 12 And the people of Israel said to Moses, "Behold, we perish, we are un done, we are all undone. 13 Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tabernacle of the LORD, shall die. Are we all to perish?"

They are a gift to you, given to the LORD, to do the service of the tent of meeting. 7 And you and your sons with you shall guard your priesthood for all that concerns the altar and that is within the veil; and you shall serve. I give your priesthood as a gift, 1 and any outsider who comes near shall be put to death:' s Then the LORD spoke to Aaron, "Behold, I have given you charge of the contributions made to me, all the consecrated things of the people of Israel. I have given them to you as a portion and to your sons as a per petual due. 9 This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every offering of theirs, every grain offering of theirs and every sin offering of theirs and every guilt of fering of theirs, which they render to me, shall be most holy to you and to your sons. 10 rn a most holy place shall you eat it. Every male may eat it; it is holy to you. 1 1 This also is yours: the contribution of their gift, all the wave offerings of the people oflsrael. I have given them to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpet ual due. Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. 12 All the best of the 1

Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. 14 Every de voted thing in Israel shall be yours. 1s Everything that opens the womb of all flesh, whether man or beast, which they offer to the LORD, shall be yours. Nevertheless, the firstborn of man you shall redeem, and the firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem. 16 And their redemption price (at a month old you shall redeem them) you shall fix at five shekels7 in silver, according to the shekel of the sanctu ary, which is twenty gerahs. 1 7 But the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar and shall burn their fat as a food of fering, with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. is But their flesh shall be yours, as the breast that is waved and as the right thigh are yours. 1 9 All the holy contributions that the people of Is rael present to the LORD I give to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual due. It is a cov enant of salt forever before the LORD for you and for your offspring with you." 20 And the LORD said to Aaron, "You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion among them. I am your por tion and your inheritance among the people of Israel. 21 "To the Levites I have given ev ery tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service that they I A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 1 1 grams

It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations, and among the people of Israel they shall have no inheritance. 24 For the tithe of the people of Israel, which they pre sent as a contribution to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheri tance. Therefore I have said of them that they shall have no inheritance among the people of Israel." 2s And the LORD spoke to Mo ses, saying, 26 "Moreover, you shall speak and say to the Levites, 'When you take from the people of Israel the tithe that I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall present a contribution from it to the LORD, a tithe of the tithe. 27 And your contribution shall be counted to you as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the winepress. 2sso you shall also pre sent a contribution to the LORD from all your tithes, which you receive from the people of Israel. And from it you shall give the LORD's contri bution to Aaron the priest. 29 Out of all the gifts to you, you shall present every contribution due to the LORD; from each its best part is to be dedi cated.' 30 Therefore you shall say to them, 'When you have offered from it the best of it, then the rest shall be counted to the Levites as produce of the threshing floor, and as produce of the winepress.

And this shall b e a perpetual statute for the people of Israel, and for the stranger who sojourns among them. 11 "Whoever touches the dead body of any person shall be unclean seven days. 12 He shall cleanse himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day, and so be clean. But if he does not cleanse himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not become clean. 1 3 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of anyone who has died, and does not cleanse himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not thrown on him, he shall be unclean. His uncleanness is still on him. 14 " This is the law when someone dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent and everyone who is in the tent shall be unclean seven days 1 5 And every open vessel that has no cover fastened on it is unclean. 1 6 Whoever in the open field touches someone who was killed with a sword or who died naturally, or touches a human bone or a grave, shall be un clean seven days. I 7 For the unclean they shall take some ashes of the burnt sin offering, and fresh 1 water shall be added in a vessel. 1 8 Then a clean person shall take hyssop and dip it in the water and sprinkle it on the tent and on all the furnishings and on the persons who were there and on whoever touched the bone, or the slain or the dead or the grave. 19 And the clean person shall sprinkle it on the unclean o n the third day and on the seventh day.

there was no water for the congregation. And they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. 3 And the peo ple quarreled with Moses and said, "Would that we had perished when our brothers perished before the LORD ! 4 Why have you brought the assembly of the LORD into this wil derness, that we should die here, both we and our cattle? s And why have you made us come up out ofEgypt to bring us to this evil place? It is no place for grain or figs or vines or pomegran ates, and there is no water to drink." 6 Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the entrance of the tent of meeting and fell on their faces. And the glory of the LORD appeared to them, 7 and the Lo RD spoke to Moses, saying, s "Take the staff, and assemble the congrega tion, you and Aaron your brother, and tell the rock before their eyes to yield

NUM BERS 2 1 : 1 2 -25 opposite Moab, toward the sunrise. 1 2 From there they set out and camped in the Valley of Zered. 1 3 From there they set out and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wil derness that extends from the border of the Amorites, for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites. 14 Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD,
is
" Waheb in Suphah, and the valleys of the Arn on, and the slope of the valleys that extends to the seat of Ar, and leans to the border of Moab:' 1 6 And
from there they continued to Beer; 1 that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, "Gather the peo ple together, so that I may give them water:' 1 7 Then Israel sang this song:

" Spring up, 0 well!-Sing to it!t h e well that t h e princes made, that the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter and with their staffs:'
And from the wilderness they went on to Mattanah, 1 9 and from Matta nah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth, 20 and from Bamoth to the valley lying in the region of Moab by the top of Pisgah that looks down on the desert.2 King Sihon Defeated
21 Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying, 22 "Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into field or vine yard. We will not drink the water of a well. We will go by the King's High way until we have passed through your territory:' 2 3 But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory. He gathered all his people together and went out against Israel to the wilderness and came to Jahaz and fought against Israel. 24 And Israel de feated him with the edge of the sword and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as to the Ammonites, for the border of the Ammonites was strong. 2s And Israel took all these cities, and Israel settled 1 Beer means well 2 0r feshirnon

Now therefore, if it is evil in your sight, I will turn back:' 35 And the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but speak only the word that I tell you:' So Balaam went on with the princes of Balak. 36 When Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to meet him at the city of Moab, on the border formed by the Arn on, at the extrem ity of the border. 37 And Balak said to Balaam, "Did I not send to you to call you? Why did you not come to me? Am I not able to honor you?" JS Balaam said to Balak, "Behold, I have come to you! Have I now any power of my own to speak anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that must I speak:' 39 Then Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kiriath-huzoth. 40 And Balak sacri ficed oxen and sheep, and sent for Balaam and for the princes who were with him. 41 And in the morning Balak took Balaam and brought him up to Bamoth-baal, and from there he saw a fraction of the people.
23
Salaa m's F i rst Oracle
And Balaam said to Balak, "Build for me here seven al tars, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams:' 2 Balak did as Balaam had said. And Balak and Balaam offered on each altar a bull and a ram. 3 And Balaam said to Balak, "Stand beside your burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps the LORD will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me I will tell you:' And he went to a bare height, 4 and God met Balaam.
378
NUMBERS 23:5- 1 6 And Balaam said to him, " I have ar ranged the seven altars and I have of fered on each altar a bull and a ram." s And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak:' 6 And he re turned to him, and behold, he and all the princes of Moab were standing be side his burnt offering. 7 And Balaam took up his discourse and said,
10
" From Aram Balak has brought me, the king of Moab from the eastern mountains: ' C ome, curse Jacob for me, and come, denounce Israel!' How can I curse whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce whom the LORD has not denounced? For from the top of the crags I see him, from the hills I behold him; behold, a people dwelling alone, and not counting itself among the nations! Who can count the dust of Jacob or number the fourth part ' of Israel? Let me die the death of the upright, and let my end be like his!" 1 1 And Balak said to
Balaam, "What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have done nothing but bless them:' 1 2 And he answered and said, "Must I not take care to speak what the LORD puts in my mouth?" Salaam's Second Oracle
1 3 And Balak said to him, "Please come with me to another place, from which you may see them. You shall see only a fraction of them and shall not see them all. Then curse them for me from there:' 14 And he took him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars and of fered a bull and a ram on each altar. i s Balaam said to Balak, "Stand here beside your burnt offering, while I meet the LORD over there." 1 6 And the LORD met Balaam and put a word in his mouth and said, "Return to Balak, 1

To a large tribe you shall give a large inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a small inheritance. Wherever the lot falls for anyone, that shall be his. Ac cording to the tribes of your fathers you shall inherit. 55 But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Command the peo ple of Israel, and say to them, When you enter the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan as de fined by its borders), 3your south side shall be from the wilderness of Zin alongside Edom, and your southern border shall run from the end of the Salt Sea on the east. 1 And your bor der shall turn south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and cross to Zin, and its limit shall be south of Kadesh-barnea. Then it shall go on to Hazar-addar, and pass along to Azmon. s And the border shall turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and its limit shall be at the sea. 6 "For the western border, you shall have the Great Sea and its I coast. This shall be your western border. 7 "This shall be your northern border: from the Great Sea you shall draw a line to Mount Hor. s From Mount Hor you shall draw a line to Lebo-hamath, and the limit of the border shall be at Zedad. 9 Then the border shall extend to Ziphron, and its limit shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your northern border. 10 "You shall draw a line for your eastern border from Hazar-enan to Shepham. 11 And the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain.

Cities for the Levites
The LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jor dan at Jericho, saying, 2 "Command the people of Israel to give to the Le vites some of the inheritance of their possession as cities for them to dwell in. And you shall give to the Levites pasturelands around the cities. 3 The cities shall be theirs to dwell in, and their pasturelands shall be for their cattle and for their livestock and for all their beasts. 4 The pasturelands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city outward a thousand cubits 1 all around. s And you shall measure, out side the city, on the east side two thou sand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits, the city be ing in the middle. This shall belong to them as pastureland for their cities. 6 "The cities that you give to the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge, where you shall permit the manslayer to flee, and in addition to them you shall give forty-two cities. 7 All the cit ies that you give to the Levites shall be forty-eight, with their pasture lands. s And as for the cities that you shall give from the possession of the people of Israel, from the larger tribes you shall take many, and from the smaller tribes you shall take few; each, in proportion to the inheritance that it inherits, shall give of its cities to the Levites:'

Marriage of Female Heirs
The heads of the fathers' houses of the clan of the people of Gilead the son of Machir, son of Manasseh, from the clans of the people of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before the chiefs, the heads of the fathers' houses of the people of Israel. 2 They said, "The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the people of Israel, and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters. 3 But if they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the people of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. So it will be taken away from the lot of our inheritance. 4 And when the jubilee of the people of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, and their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers:' s And Moses commanded the peo ple of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, "The tribe of the people of Joseph is right. 6This is what the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: 'Let them marry whom they think best, only they shall marry within the clan of the tribe of their father. 7 The in heritance of the people of Israel shall not be transferred from one tribe to another, for every one of the people of Israel shall hold on to the inheri tance of the tribe of his fathers. s And every daughter who possesses an in heritance in any tribe of the people of Israel shall be wife to one of the clan of the tribe of her father, so that every
414
NUMBERS 36:9- 1 3 one of the people of Israel may possess the inheritance of his fathers. 9 So no inheritance shall be transferred from one tribe to another, for each of the tribes of the people of Israel shall hold on to its own inheritance.' " JO The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses, 1 1 for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to sons of their father's brothers. 12 They were married into the clans of the people of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheri tance remained in the tribe of their father's clan. 13 These are the commandments and the rules that the LORD com manded through Moses to the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.

These are the words that Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jor dan in the wilderness, in the Arabah opposite Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Diza hab. 2 It is eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea. 3 In the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses spoke to the people oflsrael ac cording to all that the LORD had given him in commandment to them, 4 after he had defeated Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei. s Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses undertook to explain this law, saying, 6 "The LORD our God said to us in Horeb, 'You have stayed long enough at this mountain. ? Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neigh bors in the Arabah, in the hill country and in the lowland and in the Negeb and by the seacoast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. s See, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession of the land that the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their offspring after them.' Leaders Appointed

You shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be intimidated by anyone, for the judg ment is God's.

"And now, 0 Israel, listen to the statutes and the rules 1 that I am teaching you, and do them, that you may live, and go in and take posses sion of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you. 2 You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your God that I command you. 3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did at Baal-peor, for the LORD your God destroyed from among you all the men who followed the Baal of Peor. 4 But you who held fast to the LORD your God are all alive today. s See, I have taught you statutes and rules, as the LORD my God com manded me, that you should do them in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. 6 Keep them and do them, for that will be your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understand ing people.' 7 For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the LORD our God is to us, whenever we call upon him? s And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today? 9 "Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life.

DEUTERONOMY 4: 10 - 19 known to your children and your chil dren's children- 10 how on the day that you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, the LORD said to me, 'Gather the people to me, that I may let them hear my words, so that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children so: 11 And you came near and stood at the foot of the mountain, while the moun tain burned with fire to the heart of heaven, wrapped in darkness, cloud, and gloom. 1 2 Then the LORD spoke to you out of the midst of the fire. You heard the sound of words, but saw no form; there was only a voice. 13 And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments, 1 and he wrote them on two tablets of stone. 14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and rules, that you might do them in the land that you are going over to possess. Idolatry Forbidden
JS "Therefore watch yourselves very carefully. Since you saw no form on the day that the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire, 16 beware lest you act corruptly by making a carved image for yourselves, in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, 17 the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, is the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth. 19 And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the LORD your God has allotted to all the peoples under

But you shall go over and take possession of that good land. 23 Take care, lest you forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make a carved image, the form of anything that the LORD your God has forbid den you. 24 For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. 2s "When you father children and children's children, and have grown old in the land, if you act corruptly by making a carved image in the form of anything, and by doing what is evil in the sight of the LORD your God, so as to provoke him to anger, 26 1 call heav en and earth to witness against you to day, that you will soon utterly perish from the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess. You will not live long in it, but will be utterly de stroyed. 27 And the LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the na tions where the LORD will drive you. 2 8 And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. 29 But from there you will seek the LORD your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your

Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day. 1 6 " ' Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God com manded you, that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. 1 7 " 'You shall not murder.2 18 " 'And you shall not commit adul tery. 19 " 'And you shall not steal. 20 " 'And you shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. 2 1 " 'And you shall not covet your neighbor's wife. And you shall not desire your neighbor's house, his field, or his male servant, or his fe male servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's: 22 "These words the LORD spoke to all your assembly at the mountain out of the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice; and he added no more. And he wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me. 23 And as soon as you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders. 24 And you said, 'Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire. This day we have seen God speak with man, and man still live. 25 Now therefore why should we die? For 1 Or servant 2Ihe Hebrew word also covers causing human death through carelessness or negligence
DEUTERONOMY 5:26-6: 1 this great fire will consume us. I f we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, we shall die. 26 For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of fire as we have, and has still lived? 2i Go near and hear all that the LORD our God will say, and speak to us all that the LORD our God will speak to you, and we will hear and do it.' zs ''And the LORD heard your words, when you spoke to me. And the LORD said to me, 'I have heard the words of this people, which they have spoken to you. They are right in all that they have spoken. 29 Oh that they had such a heart as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their descendants 1 forever! 3 0 Go and say to them, "Return to your tents." 3 1 But you, stand here by me, and I will tell you the whole command ment and the statutes and the rules that you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land that I am giving them to possess.' 32 You shall be careful therefore to do as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 33 You shall walk in all the way that the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may go well with you, and that you may live long in the land that you shall possess.

He shall not exact it of his neighbor, his brother, because the LoRD's release has been proclaimed. 3 Of a foreigner you may exact it, but whatever of yours is with your brother your hand shall release. 4 But there will be no poor among you; for the LORD will bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you for an inheritance to possess- s if only you will strictly obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all this commandment that I com mand you today. 6 For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you, and you shall lend to many na tions, but you shall not borrow, and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you. 7 "If among you, one of your broth ers should become poor, in any of your towns within your land that the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother, s but you shall open your hand to him and lend him sufficient for his need, whatever it may be. 9 Take care lest there be an unworthy thought in your heart and you say, 'The seventh year, the year of release is near; and your eye look grudgingly7 on your poor brother, and you give him nothing, and he cry to the LORD against you, and you be guilty of sin. 1 0 You shall give to him freely, and your heart shall not be grudging when you give to him, because for this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake. 11 For there will never cease to be poor in the I Or be evil; also verse 1 0

Joshua 1
God Commissions Joshua After the death of Moses the ser vant of the LORD, the LORD said
to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' as
sistant, 2 "Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over this Jor dan, you and all this people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. 3 Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, just as I promised
to Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the
Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory. s No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you. 6 Be strong and coura
geous, for you shall cause this people
-?�
nofl"
and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good suc
cess I wherever you go. BThis Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you
will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and cou rageous. Do not be frightened, and do
not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go:'

left that breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire. 1 2 And all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua captured, and struck them with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, just as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded.

mounds did Israel burn, except Hazor alone; that Joshua burned. 14 And all

Ephraim by their clans was as follows: the boundary of their inheritance on Upper Beth-horon, 6 and the bound ary goes from there to the sea. On the north is Michmethath. Then on the east the boundary turns around toward Taanath-shiloh
and
passes
Ataroth and to Naarah, and touches Jericho, ending at the Jordan. s From Tappuah the boundary goes west ward to the brook Kanah and ends at the sea. Such is the inheritance of their clans, 9 together with the towns
that were set apart for the people of Ephraim within the inheritance of the Manassites, all those towns with
their villages. 10 However, they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites have lived in the midst of Ephraim to this day but
have been made to do forced labor.

JOSHUA 1 7:2- 1 0 Machir the firstborn o f Manasseh, the father of Gilead, were allotted Gilead and Bashan, because he was a man of war. 2 And allotments were made to the rest of the people of Manasseh by their clans, Abiezer, Helek, As riel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These were the male descendants of Manasseh the son of Joseph, by their clans. 3 Now Zelophehad the son of He pher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, and these are the names of his
daughters:
Mahlah,
Noah,
Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. 4 They approached Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun and the lead ers and said, "The LoRD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance along with our brothers." So according to the mouth of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brothers
of their father. s Thus there fell to Manasseh ten portions, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan, 6 be
cause the daughters of Manasseh re ceived an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was allotted to the rest of the people of Manasseh. ?The territory of Manasseh reached from Asher to Michmethath, which is east of Shechem. Then the boundary goes along southward to the inhabi tants ofEn-tappuah. B The land ofTap puah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah on the boundary of Manasseh belonged to the people of Ephraim. 9 Then the boundary went down to the brook Kanah. These cit ies, to the south of the brook, among the cities of Manasseh, belong to Ephraim.
Then
the
boundary
of
Manasseh goes on the north side of the brook and ends at the sea, 10 the
land to the south being Ephraim's and

Midian Oppresses Israel
The people of Israel did what was
evil in the sight of the LORD, and
the LORD gave them into the hand of Midian seven years. 2 And the hand of Midian overpowered Israel, and be

made for themselves the dens that are in the mountains and the caves and
the strongholds. 3 For whenever the Is
raelites planted crops, the Midianites
and the Amalekites and the people of
the East would come up against them.

him, "Where is your mouth now, you should serve him?' Are not these the people whom you despised? Go out
now and fight with them:' 39 And Gaal
went out at the head of the leaders of
Shechem and fought with Abimelech.
40 And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him. And many fell
wounded, up to the entrance of the

his relatives, so that they could not dwell at Shechem.
42 On the following day, the people
went out into the field, and Abimelech was told. 43 He took his people and di
set an ambush in the fields. And he
looked and saw the people coming and killed them. 44 Abimelech and the company that was with him rushed forward and stood at the entrance

After Abimelech there arose
to save Israel Tola the son of
Puah, son of Dodo, a man of Issa
char, and he lived at Shamir in the hill Israel twenty-three years. Then he
died and was buried at Shamir.
3 After him arose Jair the Gileadite,
who judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 And he had thirty sons who rode on
thirty donkeys, and they had thirty
cities, called Havvoth-jair to this day,
which are in the land of Gilead. s And Jair died and was buried in Kamon.

and Oppression 6 The people of Israel again did
what was evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals and the
Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods
of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods
of the Ammonites, and the gods of the
Philistines.
And they forsook
the LORD and did not serve him. 7 So
the anger of the LORD was kindled
against Israel, and he sold them into
the hand of the Philistines and into
the hand of the Ammonites, s and they
crushed and oppressed the people of
Israel that year. For eighteen years

man who spoke to this woman?" And
he said, "I am:' 1 2 And Manoah said, "Now when your words come true,
what is to be the child's manner oflife, and what is his mission?" 13 And the
angel of the LORD said to Manoah, "Of all that I said to the woman let her be
careful. 14 She may not eat of anything that comes from the vine, neither let
her drink wine or strong drink, or eat any unclean thing. All that I com manded her let her observe:'

LORD, "Please let us detain you and
prepare a young goat for you:' 16 And the angel of the LORD said to Manoah,
"If you detain me, I will not eat of your food. But if you prepare a burnt offer

there. 3 When they were by the house

you here? What are you doing in this

Micah dealt with me: he has hired me,

they said to him, "Inquire of God,

Then, if there is no one to save us, we will give our selves up to you:' 4 When the mes sengers came to Gibeah of Saul, they reported the matter in the ears of the people, and all the people wept aloud.

So they told him the news of the men of Jabesh. 6 And the Spirit of God rushed upon Saul when he heard these words, and his anger was greatly kindled. 7 He took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hand of the messengers,
saying, "Whoever

Did they not sing to one another of him in dances, ' Saul has struck down his thousands, and David his ten thousands'?" 1 2 And David took these words to
heart and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath. 13 So he changed his behavior before them and pretended
his spittle run down his beard. 1 4 Then Achish said to his servants, "Behold, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought him to me? 1 5 Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to behave as a madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?"

And he answered, "I am the s on of a s oj ourner, an Amalekite." 14 David said t o him, "H ow is it y ou were n ot afraid t o put out y our hand to destroy the LoRD's an ointed?" is Then David called one of the y oung men and said, "G o, execute him:' And he struck him d own s o that he died. 16 And David said to him, "Your bl ood be on y our head, for y our own m outh has testified against y ou, saying, 'I have killed the LORD's an ointed: " David's lament for Saul and Jonathan
17 And David lamented with this lamentati on over Saul and J onathan his s on, is and he said it 7 sh ould be taught to the p e ople of Judah; beh old, it is written in the B ook of Jashar.2 He said:
"Your gl ory, 0 Israel, is slain on y our high places! H ow the mighty have fallen! 20 Tell it n ot in Gath, publish it n ot in the streets of Ashkel on, lest the daughters of the Philistines rej oice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised exult. 19

22 " Fr om the bl ood of the slain, fr om the fat of the mighty, the b ow of J onathan turned n ot back, and the sword of Saul returned n ot empty. 23 " S a ul and J onathan, bel oved and l ovely! In life and in death they were n ot divided; they were swifter than eagles; they were stronger than li ons.

But Mephibosheth your master's grandson shall always eat at my table:' Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants. 1 1 Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so will your servant do:' So Mephibosheth ate at David's l table, like one of the king's sons. 1 2 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all who lived in Ziba's house be came Mephibosheth's servants. 1 3 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate always at the king's table. Now he was lame in both his feet.

And they set down the ark of God until the people had all passed out of the city. 2s Then the king said to Zadok, "Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me back and let me see both it and his dwelling place. 26 But if he says, 'I have no pleasure in you; behold, here I am, let him do to me what seems good to him:' 2 7 The king also said to Zadok the priest, "Are you not a seer? Go back7 to the city in peace, with your two sons, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. 2s See, I will wait at the fords of the wilder ness until word comes from you to inform me:' 29 So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusa lem, and they remained there. 30 But David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went, barefoot and with his head covered. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up, weeping as they went. 3 1 And it was told David, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Ab salom." And David said, "O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness:' 3 2 While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head. 33 David said to him, "If

So whatever you hear from the king's house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 36 Behold, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son, and by them you shall send to me everything you hear." 37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.

When David had passed a lit tle beyond the summit, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of donkeys sad dled, bearing two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred of summer fruits, and a skin of wine. 2 And the king said to Ziba, "Why have you brought these?" Ziba answered, "The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for those who faint in the wilderness to drink." 3 And the king said, "And where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Behold, he remains in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the house of Israel will give me back the kingdom of my father: " 4 Then the king said to Ziba, "Behold, all that belonged to Mephibosheth is now yours:' And Ziba said, "I pay homage; let me ever find favor in your sight, my lord the king:' S h imei Curses David

For the LORD has delivered you this day from the hand of all who rose up against you:' 32 The king said to the Cushite, "Is it well with the young man Absalom?" And the Cushite answered, "May the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up against you for evil be like that young man." 33 1 And the king was deeply moved and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And as he went, he said, "O my son Absa lom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, 0 Absalom, my son, my son ! "

2 SAMUEL 1 9:8 [ 7 ] - 1 5 [ 1 4] those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have made it clear to day that commanders and servants are nothing to you, for today I know that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead today, then you would be pleased. 7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak kindly to your servants, for I swear by the LORD, if you do not go, not a man will stay with you this night, and this will be worse for you than all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now:' B Then the king arose and took his seat in the gate. And the people were all told, "Behold, the king is sitting in the gate:' And all the people came before the king. David Returns to Jerusalem
Now Israel had fled every man to his own home. 9 And all the people were arguing throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "The king delivered us from the hand of our enemies and saved us from the hand of the Philis tines, and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom. 1 0 But Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why do you say nothing about bringing the king back?" 11 And King David sent this mes sage to Zadok and Abiathar the priests: "Say to the elders of Judah, 'Why should you be the last to bring the king back to his house, when the word of all Israel has come to the king? 1 1 2 You are my brothers; you are my bone and my flesh. Why then should you be the last to bring back the king?' 1 3 And say to Amasa, 'Are you not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if you are not commander of my army from now on in place of Joab: " 14 And he swayed the heart of all the men of 1 Septuagint; Hebrew to the king, to his house

" For who is God, but the LORD? And who is a rock, except our God? 33 This God is my strong refuge and has made my' way blameless.2 34 He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. 35 He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. 36 You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your gentleness made me great. 37 You gave a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet3 did not slip; 38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them, and did not turn back until they were consumed. 39 I consumed them; I thrust them through, so that they did not rise; they fell under my feet. 40 For you equipped me with strength for the battle; you made those who rise against me sink under me. 41 You made my enemies turn their backs to me,4 those who hated me, and I destroyed them. 42 They looked, but there was none to save; they cried to the LORD, but he did not answer them. 43 I beat them fine as the dust of the earth; I crushed them and stamped them down like the mire of the streets. 44 " You delivered me from strife with my people;s you kept me as the head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me. 45 Foreigners came cringing to me; as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me.

Foreigners lost heart and came trembling7 out of their fortresses. " The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation, the God who gave me vengeance and brought down peoples under me, who brought me out from my enemies; you exalted me above those who rose against me; you delivered me from men of violence. " For this I will praise you, 0 LORD, among the nations, and sing praises to your name. Great salvation he brings2 to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David an his offspring forever.

2 3 ofNowDavid: these are the last words The oracle of David, the son of Jesse, the oracle of the man who was raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, the sweet psalmist of Israel:3 2 " The Spirit of the LORD speaks by me; his word is on my tongue. The God of Israel has spoken; the Rock of Israel has said to me: When one rules justly over men, ruling in the fear of God, he dawns on them like the morning light, like the sun shining forth on a cloudless morning, like rain4 that makes grass to sprout from the earth. 5
" For does not my house stand so with God? For he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and secure. For will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire? But worthless mens are all like thorns that are thrown away, for they cannot be taken with the hand;

1 KINGS 5 : 5 [4:25 ] - 1 5 [5: 1 ] kings west of the Euphrates. And he had peace on all sides around him.
2s And Judah and
Israel lived in safety,
from Dan even to Beersheba, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, all the days of Solomon. 26 Solo
mon also had 40,0001 stalls of horses for his chariots, and 12,000 horse
men. 21 And those officers supplied
1'1::11' lT T - :
nothing be lacking. 2 s Barley also and straw for the horses and swift steeds they brought to the place where it was required, each according to his duty. 29 And
God gave Solomon wisdom
and understanding beyond measure, and breadth of mind like the sand on the seashore, 30 so that Solomon's wis
dom surpassed the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt. 31 For he was wiser than all other men, wiser than Ethan the Ezra hite, and Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol, and his fame was in all the surrounding nations. 32 He
also spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his
songs were 1 ,005. 33 He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of the wall.
He spoke also of beasts, and of birds,
and of reptiles, and of fish. 34 And people of all nations came to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and from all the kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.

Solomon's Bened iction 54
Now as Solomon finished of
fering all this prayer and plea to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, where he had knelt with hands outstretched toward heaven. And he stood and blessed all the
assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying, 56 "Blessed be the LORD who has given rest to his people Israel, ac cording to all that he promised. Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant. S7 The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers. May
walk in all his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his rules, which he commanded our fa thers. 59 Let these words of mine, with which I have pleaded before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, and may he maintain the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as each day requires,
60 that
all the peoples of the earth may
know that the LORD is God; there is no other. 6 1 Let your heart therefore

burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat pieces of the peace offer ings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to re ceive the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat pieces of the peace offerings. 65 So Solomon held the feast at that assembly, from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days. 1 66 On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king and went to their homes joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had shown to David his servant and to Israel his people.

" 1 0 And the young men who had grown up with him said to him, "Thus shall you speak to this people who said to you, 'Your father made our yoke heavy, but you lighten it for us: thus shall you say to them,

king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of affairs brought about by the LORD that he might fulfill his word, which the LORD spoke by Ahi j ah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

of Judah, and they will kill me and return to Rehoboam king of Judah:'
2s So
the king took counsel and made
two calves of gold. And he said to the people, "You have gone up to Jerusa lem long enough. Behold your gods,
0 Israel, who brought you up out of
the land of Egypt:' 29 And he set one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan. 30 Then this thing became a sin, for the people went as far as Dan to be
before one. ' 31 He also made temples on high places and appointed priests
from among all the people, who were not of the Levites. 32 And Jeroboam appointed a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month like the feast that
ficing to the calves that he made. And he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places that he had made. 33 He
went up to the altar that he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, in the month that he had devised from his own heart. And he instituted a feast for the people of Israel and went up to the altar to make offerings.

Asa Reigns In Judah 9 Jn the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah, 1 0 and he reigned forty
one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. 1 1 And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as David his father had done. 12 He put away the male cult prostitutes out of the land and removed all the idols that his fa thers had made. 13 He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen mother because she had made an abominable image for Asherah. And Asa cut down her image and burned

less, the heart of Asa was wholly true to the LORD all his days. 15 And he brought into the house of the LORD the sacred gifts of his father and his own sacred gifts, silver, and gold, and vessels. 16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days. 1 7 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and built Ramah, that he might permit no one to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. 1 8 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD and the treasures of the king's house and gave them into the hands of his servants. And King Asa sent them to Ben-hadad the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who lived in Damascus, saying, 1 9 "Let there be a covenant/ between me and you, as there was between my father and your father.

LORD and followed the Baals. 19 Now therefore send and gather all Israel to me at Mount Carmel, and the 450 prophets of Baal and the 400 prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel's table:'
The Prophets of Baal Defeated So Ahab sent to all the people
of Israel and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel. 2 1 And Elijah came near to all the people and said, "How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him:' And the people did
not answer him a word. 22 Then Elijah
said to the people, "I, even I only, am left a prophet of the LORD, but Baal's
prophets are 450 men. 23 Let two bulls

from the land he exterminated the remnant of the male cult prostitutes who remained in the days of his fa ther Asa. 47
There was no king in Edom; a
deputy was king. 48 Jehoshaphat made
ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they did not go, for the ships were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
49 Then
Ahaziah the son of Ahab said
to Jehoshaphat, "Let my servants go with your servants in the ships;' but
Jehoshaphat was not willing. 50 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
Ahaziah Reigns i n I srael 5 1 Ahaziah the
son of Ahab began to
reign over Israel in Samaria in the sev enteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel. 52 He did what was evil in the
sight of the LORD and walked in the way of his father and in the way of his mother and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to
sin. 53 He served Baal and worshiped
him and provoked the LORD, the God oflsrael, to anger in every way that his father had done.

aphat king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Ahab became king over Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twelve years. 2 He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, though not like his father and mother, for he put away the pillar ofBaal that his father had made. 3 Nevertheless, he clung to the sin of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart from it. 4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a

2 KINGS 3:26-4:6 covered. They stopped every spring of water and felled all the good trees, till only its stones were left in Kir hareseth, and the slingers surrounded and attacked it. 26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was going against him, he took with him 700 swordsmen to break through, oppo site the king of Edom, but they could not. 27Then he took his oldest son who was to reign in his place and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. And there came great wrath against Israel. And they withdrew from him and returned to their own land.

Elisha and the Widow's Oil
of the prophets cried to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the LORD, but the creditor has come to take my two children to be his slaves." 2 And Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me; what have you in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil:' 3 Then he said, "Go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not too few. 4 Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside:' s So she went from him and shut the door be hind herself and her sons. And as she poured they brought the vessels to her. 6 When the vessels were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another vessel:' And he said to her, "There is not an other." Then the oil stopped flowing.

2 KINGS 5: 1 6-23 Gehazi's G reed and Punishment
IS Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and he came and stood before him. And he said, "Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel; so accept now a present from your ser vant." 16 But he said, "As the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none." And he urged him to take it, but he refused. 17 Then Naa man said, "If not, please let there be given to your servant two mule loads of earth, for from now on your ser vant will not offer burnt offering or sacrifice to any god but the LORD. I S In this matter may the LORD pardon your servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, leaning on my arm, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, when I bow myself in the house of Rim mon, the LORD pardon your servant in this matter:' 19 He said to him, "Go in peace:' But when Naaman had gone from him a short distance, 20 Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, "See, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not accepting from his hand what he brought. As the LORD lives, I will run after him and get something from him:' 21 So Gehazi followed Naaman. And when Naaman saw someone running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him and said, "Is all well?" 22 And he said, "All is well. My master has sent me to say, 'There have just now come to me from the hill coun try of Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing: " 23 And Naaman said, "Be pleased to accept two talents:' And he urged him and tied up two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes

Ben-hadad's Siege of Samaria
24 Afterward Ben-hadad king of Syria mustered his entire army and went up and besieged Samaria. 2s And there was a great famine in Samaria, as they besieged it, until a donkey's head was sold for eighty shekels of silver, and the fourth part of a kab 1 of dove's dung for five shekels of sil ver. 26 Now as the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried out to him, saying, "Help, my lord, 0 king!" 27 And he said, "If the LORD will not help you, how shall I help you? From the threshing floor, or from the winepress?" 28 And the king asked her, "What is your trouble?" She answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son 1 A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 1 1 grams; a kab was about 1 quart or 1 liter

them with blindness i n accordance with the prayer of Elisha. 19 And Eli sha said to them, "This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek:' And he led them to Samaria. 2 0 As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha said, "O LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see:' So the LORD opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria. 21 As soon as the king of Is rael saw them, he said to Elisha, "My father, shall I strike them down? Shall I strike them down?" 22 He answered, "You shall not strike them down. Would you strike down those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master." 23 So he prepared for them a great feast, and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. And the Syrians did not come again on raids into the land of Israel.

2 KINGS 6:29-7:4 tomorrow: 29 So we boiled my son and ate him. And on the next day I said to her, 'Give your son, that we may eat him.' But she has hidden her son." 30 When the king heard the words of the woman, he tore his clothes-now he was passing by on the wall-and the people looked, and behold, he had sackcloth beneath on his body3 J and he said, "May God do so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders today." 32 Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. Now the king had dispatched a man from his presence, but before the messenger arrived Elisha said to the elders, "Do you see how this murderer has sent to take off my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door and hold the door fast against him. Is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?" 33 And while he was still speaking with them, the messen ger came down to him and said, "This trouble is from the LORD! Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"

and said to him, "Tie up your gar ments, and take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead. 2 And when you arrive, look there for Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi. And go in and have him rise from among his fellows, and lead him to an inner chamber. 3 Then take the flask of oil and pour it on his head and say, 'Thus says the LORD, I anoint you king over Israel: Then open the door and flee; do not linger:' 4 So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead. s And when he came, behold, the com manders of the army were in council. And he said, "I have a word for you, 0 commander:' And Jehu said, "To which of us all?" And he said, "To you, 0 commander:' 6 So he arose and went into the house. And the young man poured the oil on his head, say ing to him, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, I anoint you king over the people of the LORD, over Israel. 7 And you shall strike down the house of Ahab your master, so that I may avenge on Jezebel the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD. s For the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, bond or free, in Israel. 9 And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah. 10 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel, and

14Thus Jehu the son ofJehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram with all Israel had been on guard at Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Syria, i s but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that the Syr ians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) So Jehu said, "If this is your decision, then let no one slip out of the city to go and tell the news in JezreeJ:' 16 Then Jehu mounted his chariot and went to Jez reel, for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to visit Joram. 17Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he saw the company of Jehu as he came and said, "I see a company:' And Joram said, "Take a horseman and send to meet them, and let him say, 'Is it peace?' " 1 s So a man on horseback went to meet him and said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace?' " And Jehu said, "What do you have to do with peace? Turn around and ride behind me:' And the watchman reported, saying, "The messenger reached them, but he is not coming back:' 19 Then he sent out a 1

2 KINGS 1 1 :5- 1 4 them the king's son. s And h e com manded them, "This is the thing that you shall do: one third of you, those who come off duty on the Sabbath and guard the king's house 6 (another third being at the gate Sur and a third at the gate behind the guards) shall guard the palace. 1 7 And the two divisions of you, which come on duty in force on the Sabbath and guard the house of the LORD on behalf of the king, s shall surround the king, each with his weapons in his hand. And whoever approaches the ranks is to be put to death. Be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in." 9 The captains did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they each brought his men who were to go off duty on the Sabbath, with those who were to come on duty on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest. 10 And the priest gave to the captains the spears and shields that had been King David's, which were in the house of the LORD. 11 And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and the house on behalf of the king. 1 2 Then he brought out the king's son and put the crown on him and gave him the testimony. And they proclaimed him king and anointed him, and they clapped their hands and said, "Long live the king!" 13 When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she went into the house of the LORD to the people. 14 And when she looked, there was the king standing by the pil lar, according to the custom, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king, and all the people of the land 1 The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain

Azariah the son of Amaziah, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusa lem. His mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem. 3 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, accord ing to all that his father Amaziah had done. 4 Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. s And the LORD touched the king, so that he was a leper I to the day of his death, and he lived in a sep arate house.2 And Jotham the king's son was over the household, govern ing the people of the land. 6 Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 7 And Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Jotham his son reigned in his place.

27 In the fifty-second year of Aza riah king of Judah, Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twenty years. 2s And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin. 29 In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came and captured Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and

He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin. 2s And Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him with fifty men of the people of Gilead, and struck him down in Samaria, in the citadel of the king's house with Argob and Arieh; he put him to death and reigned in his place. 26 Now the rest of the deeds of Pekahiah and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

His mother's name was Jerusha the daughter of Zadok. 34 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, ac cording to all that his father Uzziah had done. 35 Nevertheless, the high places were not removed. The people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. He built the upper gate of the house of the LORD. 36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 37 In those days the LORD began to send Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah against Judah. 38 Jotham slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.

Hoshea Reigns in Israel
king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel, and he reigned nine years. 2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him. 3 Against him came up Shalmaneser king of As syria. And Hoshea became his vassal and paid him tribute. 4 But the king of Assyria found treachery in Hoshea, for he had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria shut him up and bound him in prison. s Then the king of Assyria invaded all the land and came to Samaria, and for three years he besieged it. The Fall of Israel
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria, and he carried the Israelites away to As syria and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Exile Because of Idolatry
7 And this occurred because the people of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods s and walked in the customs of the nations whom the LORD drove out before the people of Israel, and in the customs that the kings of Israel had practiced. 9 And the people of Israel did secretly against the LORD their God things that were not right. They built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to forti fied city. IO They set up for themselves pillars and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree, 11 and there they made offerings on all the high places, as the nations did whom the LORD carried away before them.
916
2 KINGS 1 7 : 1 2-20 And they did wicked things, provok ing the LORD to anger, 12 and they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, "You shall not do this:' u Yet the LORD warned Israel and Ju dah by every prophet and every seer, saying, "Turn from your evil ways and keep my commandments and my stat utes, in accordance with all the Law that I commanded your fathers, and that I sent to you by my servants the prophets:' 1 4 But they would not listen, but were stubborn, as their fathers had been, who did not believe in the LORD their God. i s They despised his stat utes and his covenant that he made with their fathers and the warnings that he gave them. They went after false idols and became false, and they followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them. 16 And they abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made for themselves metal images of two calves; and they made an Asherah and worshiped all the host of heaven and served Baal. 17 And they burned their sons and their daughters as offerings7 and used divination and omens and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking him to anger. I S Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel and removed them out of his sight. None was left but the tribe of Judah only. 1 9 Judah also did not keep the com mandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the customs that Israel had introduced. 20 And the LORD re jected all the descendants of Israel and afflicted them and gave them into the 1

24 And the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the people of Israel. And they took possession of Samaria and lived in its cities. 2s And at the beginning of their dwelling there, they did not fear the LORD. Therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them. 26 So the king of Assyria was told, "The nations that you have car ried away and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they are killing them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land:' 2 7 Then the king of Assyria com mantled, "Send there one of the priests whom you carried away from there, and let him 1 go and dwell there and teach them the law of the god of the land:' 2s So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel and taught them how they should fear the LORD.

you shall not forget t h e covenant that I have made with you.

In the third year of Hoshea
Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Ju dah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. J And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places and broke the pillars and cut down the Asherah. And he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the peo ple of Israel had made offerings to it (it was called Nehushtan). 7 s He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 6 For he held fast to the LORD. He did not depart from following him, but kept the commandments that the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; wherever he went out, he prospered. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and would not serve him. B He struck down the Philistines 1 Nehushtan sounds like the Hebrew for both bronze and serpent

In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Is rael, Samaria was taken. 1 1 The king of Assyria carried the Israelites away to Assyria and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 1 2 because they did not obey the voice of the LORD their God but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the ser vant of the LORD commanded. They neither listened nor obeyed.

Whatever you impose on me I will bear:' And the king of Assyria required of Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents7 of silver and thirty talents of gold. i s And Heze kiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD and from the doorposts that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent the Tartan, the Rab-saris, and the Rab shakeh with a great army from La chish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem.

" Whom have you mocked and reviled? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes to the heights? Against the Holy One of Israel! By your messengers you have mocked the Lord, and you have said, 'With my many chariots I have gone up the heights of the mountains, to the far recesses of Lebanon; I felled its tallest cedars, its choicest cypresses; I entered its farthest lodging place, its most fruitful forest. I dug wells and drank foreign waters, and I dried up with the sole of my foot all the streams of Egypt.' " Have you not heard that I determined it long ago? I planned from days of old what now I bring to pass, that you should turn fortified cities into heaps of ruins, while their inhabitants, shorn of strength, are dismayed and confounded, and have become like plants of the field and like tender grass, like grass on the housetops, blighted before it is grown. " But I know your sitting down and your going out and coming in, and your raging against me. Because you have raged against me and your complacency has come into my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth, and I will turn you back on the way by which you came. 29 ''And this shall be the sign for

you: this year eat what grows of itself, and in the second year what springs of the same. Then in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. 30 And the surviving rem nant of the house of Judah shall again take root downward and bear fruit upward. 31 For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant, and out of Mount Zion a band of survivors. The zeal of the LORD will do this. 3 2 "Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city or shoot an arrow there, or come before it with a shield or cast up a siege mound against it. 33 By the way that he came, by the same he shall return, and he shall not come into this city, declares the LORD. 34 For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David:' 35 And that night the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 in the camp of the Assyr ians. And when people arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. 36 Then Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and went home and lived at Nineveh. 37 And as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer, his sons, struck him down with the sword and escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his place.

please remember how I have walked before you in faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in your sight:' And Heze kiah wept bitterly. 4 And before Isaiah had gone out of the middle court, the word of the LORD came to him: s "Turn back, and say to Hezekiah the leader of my people, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the LORD, 6 and I will add fifteen years to your life. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city for my own sake and for my servant David's sake:' 7 And Isaiah said, "Bring a cake of figs. And let them take and lay it on the boil, that he may recover:' B And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?" 9 And Isaiah said, "This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he has promised: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?" I O And Hezekiah answered, "It is an easy thing for the shadow to lengthen ten steps. Rather let the shadow go back ten steps:' 11 And Isa iah the prophet called to the LORD, and he brought the shadow back ten steps, by which it had gone down on the steps of Ahaz.

There was nothing in his house or in all his realm that Hezekiah did not show them. 1 4 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, "What did these men say? And from where did they come to you?" And Hezekiah said, "They have come from a far country, from Babylon:' is He said, "What have they seen in your house?" And Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house; there is nothing in my storehouses that I did not show them:' 1 6 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the LORD: 17 Be hold, the days are coming, when all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have stored up till this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Noth ing shall be left, says the LORD. 1 8 And some of your own sons, who shall be born to you, shall be taken away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon:' 1 9 Then Heze kiah said to Isaiah, "The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good:' For he thought, "Why not, if there will be peace and security in my days?" 20 The rest of the deeds of Hezekiah and all his might and how he made the pool and the conduit and brought water into the city, are they not writ ten in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 2 1 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

2 KINGS 22: 1 7-23:3 read. 1 7 Because they have forsaken me and have made offerings to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath will be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched. is But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Regard ing the words that you have heard, 19 because your heart was penitent, and you humbled yourself before the LORD, when you heard how I spoke against this place and against its in habitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and you have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you, declares the LORD. 20 Therefore, behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes shall not see all the disaster that I will bring u p o n t h i s place: " And they brought back \,·ord to the king.

He also burned the Ashe rah. 16 And as Josiah turned, he saw the tombs there on the mount. And he sent and took the bones out of the tombs and burned them on the altar and defiled it, according to the word of the LORD that the man of God proclaimed, who had predicted these things. I7 Then he said, "What is that monument that I see?" And the men of the city told him, "It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Ju dah and predicted4 these things that

So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria. 19 And Josiah removed all the shrines also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which kings of Israel had made, provoking the LORD to anger. He did to them according to all that he had done at Bethel. 20 And he sacrificed all the priests of the high places who were there, on the altars, and burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem. Josiah Restores the Passover
21 And the king commanded all the people, "Keep the Passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant:' 22 For no such Passover had been kept since the days of the judges who judged Israel, or during all the days of the kings of Israel or of the kings of Judah. 23 But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this Passover was kept to the LORD in Jerusalem. 24 Moreover, Josiah put away the mediums and the necromancers and the household gods and the idols and all the abominations that were seen in the land ofJudah and in Jerusalem, that he might establish the words of the law that were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD. 2 s Before him there was no king like him, who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, ac cording to all the Law of Moses, nor did any like him arise after him. 26 Still the LORD did not turn from

So Judah was taken into exile out of its land. Gedaliah Made Governor of Judah
22 And over the people who re mained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, he appointed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, governor. 23 Now when all the captains and their men heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah governor, they came with their men to Geda liah at Mizpah, namely, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite. 24 And Gedaliah swore to them and their men, saying, "Do not be afraid because of the Chaldean officials. Live in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you:' 2s But in the seventh month, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the royal family, came with ten men and struck down Geda liah ana put him to death along with the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah. 26 Then all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces arose and went to Egypt, for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.

David consulted with the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, with every leader. 2 And David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you and from the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brothers who remain in all the lands of Israel, as well as to the priests and Levites in the cities that have pasturelands, that they may be gathered to us. 3 Then let us bring again the ark of our God to us, for we did not seek it 7 in the days of Saul:' 4 All the assembly agreed to do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

And the LORD blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that he had.

1 CHRONICLES 1 6: 1 - 1 5 David dancing and celebrating, and she despised him in her heart. The Ark Placed in a Tent
16
And they brought in the ark of God and set it inside the tent that David had pitched for it, and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God. 2 And when Da vid had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD 3 and distributed to all Israel, both men and women, to each a loaf of bread, a portion of meat, 1 and a cake of raisins. 4 Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of the LORD, to invoke, to thank, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel. s Asaph was the chief, and second to him were Zechariah, Jeiel, Shemira moth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Bena iah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, who were to play harps and lyres; Asaph was to sound the cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests were to blow trumpets regularly before the ark of the covenant of God. 7 Then on that day David first appointed that thanks giving be sung to the LORD by Asaph and his brothers.

Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in h i s holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice! Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually! Remember the wondrous works that he has done, his miracles and the judgments he uttered, 0 offspring of Israel his servant, children of Jacob, his chosen ones! He is the LoRD our God; his judgments are in all the earth. Remember h i s covenant forever, the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

the covenant that he made with Abraham, his sworn promise to Isaac, which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant, saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, as your portion for an inheritance:' When you were few in number, of little account, and sojourners in it, wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people, he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their account, saying, "Touch not my anointed ones, do my prophets no harm!" Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Tell of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy are in his place. Ascribe to the LORD, 0 families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering and come before him! Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness; 1 tremble before him, all the earth; yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice, and let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns!" Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

also:
" Save us, 0 God of our salvation, and gather and deliver us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise. Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting!"
Then all the people said, "Amen!" and praised the LORD. Worsh i p Before the Ark 37
So David left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD to minister regularly before the ark as each day required, .>8 and also Obed-edom and his7 sixty-eight brothers, while Obed edom, the son of Jeduthun, and Ho sah were to be gatekeepers. 39 And he left Zadok the priest and his brothers the priests before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that was at Gibeon 40 to offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt of fering regularly morning and evening, to do all that is written in the Law of the LORD that he commanded Israel. 4 1 With them were Heman and Jedu thun and the rest of those chosen and expressly named to give thanks to the LORD, for his steadfast love endures forever. 42 Heman and Jeduthun had trumpets and cymbals for the music and instruments for sacred song. The sons of Jeduthun were appointed to the gate. 4 3 Then all the people departed each to his house, and David went home to bless his household. The LORD'S Covenant with David

Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you. 26 And now, 0 LORD, you are God, and you have promised this good thing to your servant. 27 Now you have been pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you, for it is you, 0 LORD, who have blessed, and it is blessed forever." David Defeats H i s Enemies
18
After this David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and he took Gath and its villages out of the hand of the Philistines. 2 And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute. 3 David also defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah-Hamath, as he went to set up his monument' at the river Euphrates. 4 And David took from him 1 ,000 chariots, 7,000 horsemen, and 20,000 foot soldiers. And David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but left enough for 1 00 chariots. s And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck down 22,000 men of the Syrians. 6 Then David put garrisons2 in Syria of Damascus, and the Syr ians became servants to David and brought tribute. And the LORD gave victory to David3 wherever he went. 7 And David took the shields of gold that were carried by the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to 1 Hebrew hand 2 Septuagint, Vulgate, 2 Samuel 8:6 (compare Syriac); Hebrew lacks garrisons J Hebrew the LORD saved David; also verse 1 3
1 CHRONICLES 1 8:8- 1 9:2 Jerusalem. s And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze. With it Solomon made the bronze sea and the pillars and the vessels of bronze. 9 When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated the whole army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, 1 0 he sent his son Hadoram to King David, to ask about his health and to bless him because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him; for Hadadezer had often been at war with Tau. And he sent all sorts of ar ticles of gold, of silver, and of bronze. 1 1 These also King David dedicated to the LORD, together with the silver and gold that he had carried off from all the nations, from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek. 12 And Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, killed 1 8,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. 13 Then he put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the LORD gave victory to David wherever he went. David's Ad m i n istration 1 4 So
David reigned over all Israel, and he administered justice and eq uity to all his people. 15 And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder; 1 6 and Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were priests; and Shavsha was secretary; 17 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were the chief officials in the service of the king.

Now after this Nahash the king of the Ammonites died, and his son reigned in his place. 2 And David said, "I will deal kindly with Hanun the son of Nahash, for his father dealt kindly with me." So David sent messengers to console him concerning his father. And Da vid's servants came to the land of

the Ammonites to Hanun to console him. 3 But the princes of the Ammon ites said to Hanun, "Do you think, because David has sent comforters to you, that he is honoring your father? Have not his servants come to you to search and to overthrow and to spy out the land?" 4 So Hanun took Da vid's servants and shaved them and cut off their garments in the middle, at their hips, and sent them away; s and they departed. When David was told concerning the men, he sent messengers to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, "Remain at Jericho until your beards have grown and then return:' 6 When the Ammonites saw that they had become a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent 1 ,000 talents 1 of silver to hire chariots and horsemen from Mesopotamia, from Aram-maacah, and from Zobah. 7 They hired 32,000 chariots and the king of Maacah with his army, who came and encamped before Medeba. And the Ammonites were mustered from their cities and came to battle. 8 When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of the mighty men. 9 And the Ammonites came out and drew up in battle array at the en trance of the city, and the kings who had come were by themselves in the open country.

1 CH RONICLES 1 9 : 1 3 -20:2 m e , then you shall help m e , but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will help you. 13 Be strong, and let us use our strength for our people and for the cities of our God, and may the LORD do what seems good to him:' 1 4 So Joab and the people who were with him drew near before the Syrians for battle, and they fled before him. 1 5 And when the Ammonites saw that the Syrians fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, Joab's brother, and entered the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem. 1 6 But when the Syrians saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent messengers and brought out the Syrians who were beyond the Euphrates, 1 with Shophach the com mander of the army of Hadadezer at their head. 17 And when it was told to David, he gathered all Israel together and crossed the Jordan and came to them and drew up his forces against them. And when David set the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him. 18 And the Syrians fled before Israel, and David killed of the Syrians the men of 7,000 chariots and 40,000 foot soldiers, and put to death also Shophach the commander of their army. 19 And when the ser vants of Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became subject to him. So the Syrians were not will ing to save the Ammonites anymore. The Capture of Rabbah
20
In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to bat tle, Joab led out the army and ravaged the country of the Ammonites and came and besieged Rabbah. But Da vid remained at Jerusalem. And Joab struck down Rabbah and overthrew it. 2 And David took the crown of their 1

4 And after this there arose war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Sippai, who was one of the descen dants of the giants, and the Philis tines were subdued. s And there was again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of Jair struck down Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Git tite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam. 6 And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was descended from the giants. 7 And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother, struck him down. s These were descended from the giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

Then Satan stood against Israel and incited David to number Israel. 2 so David said to Joab and the commanders of the army, "Go, number Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, and bring me a report, that I may know their number:' 3 But Joab said, "May the LORD add to his people a hundred times as many as they are! Are they not, my lord the king, all of them my lord's servants? Why then should my lord require this? Why should it be a cause of guilt for Israel?" 1 A talent was about 7 5 pounds or 34 kilograms 2Compare 2 Samuel 1 2: 3 1 ; Hebrew he sawed JCompare 2 Samuel 1 2 : 3 1 ; Hebrew saws

king from his head. He found that it weighed a talent 1 of gold, and in it was a precious stone. And it was placed on David's head. And he brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount. 3 And he brought out the people who were in it and set them to labor2 with saws and iron picks and axes.3 And thus David did to all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

the king's word prevailed against Joab. So Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came back to Jerusalem. s And Joab gave the sum of the numbering of the people to David. In all Israel there were l, 1 00,000 men who drew the sword, and in Judah 470,000 who drew the sword. 6 But he did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, for the king's com mand was abhorrent to Joab. 7 But God was displeased with this thing, and he struck Israel. 8 And David said to God, "I have sinned greatly in that I have done this thing. But now, please take away the iniquity of your servant, for I have acted very foolishly." 9 And the LORD spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying, 1 0 "Go and say to David, 'Thus says the LORD, Three things I offer you; choose one of them, that I may do it to you: " 1 1 So Gad came to David and said to him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Choose what you will: 12 either three years of famine, or three months of devasta tion by your foes while the sword of your enemies overtakes you, or else three days of the sword of the LORD, pestilence on the land, with the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.' Now decide what answer I shall return to him who sent me:' 1 3 Then David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Let me fall into the hand of the Lerno, for his mercy is very great, but do not let me fall into the hand of man:' 1 4 So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel, and 70,000 men of Israel fell. is And God sent the angel to Je rusalem to destroy it, but as he was

These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel. 23 David did not count those below twenty years of age, for the LORD had promised to make Israel as many as the stars of heaven. 24 Jo ab the son of Zeruiah began to count, but did not finish. Yet wrath came upon Israel for this, and the number was not en tered in the chronicles of King David. 2s Over the king's treasuries was Azmaveth the son of Adie!; and over the treasuries in the country, in the cities, in the villages, and in the tow ers, was Jonathan the son of Uzziah; 26 and over those who did the work of the field for tilling the soil was Ezri the son of Chelub; 27 and over the vineyards was Shimei the Ramathite; and over the produce of the vine yards for the wine cellars was Zabdi the Shiphmite. 2s Over the olive and sycamore trees in the Shephelah was Baal-hanan the Gederite; and over the stores of oil was Joash. 29 Over the herds that pastured in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite; over the herds in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai. 30 Over the camels was Obi! the Ishmaelite; and over the donkeys was Jehdeiah the Meronothite. Over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagrite. 31 All these were stewards of King David's property. 3 2 Jonathan, David's uncle, was a counselor, being a man of understand ing and a scribe. He and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni attended the king's sons. 33 Ahithophel was the king's counselor, and Hushai the Archite was the king's friend. 34 Ahithophel was succeeded by Jehoiada the son of Benaiah, and Abiathar. Joab was commander of the king's army.

David assembled at Jerusalem all the officials of Israel, the officials of the tribes, the officers of the divisions that served the king, the commanders of thousands, the com manders of hundreds, the stewards of all the property and livestock of the king and his sons, together with the palace officials, the mighty men and all the seasoned warriors. 2 Then King David rose to his feet and said: "Hear me, my brothers and my people. I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and for the footstool of our God, and I made preparations for building. 3 But God said to me, 'You may not build a house for my name, for you are a man of war and have shed blood.' 4 Yet the LORD God of Israel chose me from all my father's house to be king over Israel forever. For he chose Judah as leader, and in the house of Judah my father's house, and among my father's sons he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel. s And of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel. 6 He said to me, 'It is Solomon your son who shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father. 71 will establish his king dom forever if he continues strong in keeping my commandments and my rules, as he is today.' s Now therefore in the sight of all Israel, the assem bly of the LORD, and in the hearing of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God, that you may possess this good land and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.

And David the king said to all the assembly, "Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is young and inexperienced, and the work is great, for the palace will not be for man but for the LORD God. 2 So I have provided for the house of my God, so far as I was able, the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, besides great quan tities of onyx and stones for setting, antimony, colored stones, all sorts of precious stones and marble. 3 More over, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God: 4 3,000 talents 1 of gold, tlf the gold of Ophir, and 7 ,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house,2 s and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself3 today to the LORD? " 6Then the leaders of fathers' houses made their freewill offerings, as did 1 A talent was about 75 pounds or 34 kilograms 2 Septuagint; Hebrew houses 30r ordaining himself; Hebrew filling his hand

In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you. is O Lo RD, the God ofAbraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep forever such pur poses and thoughts in the hearts of your people, and direct their hearts to ward you. 1 9 Grant to Solomon my son a whole heart that he may keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, performing all, and that he may build the palace for which I have made provision:' 2 D Then David said to all the assem bly, "Bless the LORD your God:' And all the assembly blessed the LORD, the God of their fathers, and bowed their heads and paid homage to the LORD and to the king. 21 And they of fered sacrifices to the LORD, and on the next day offered burnt offerings to the LORD, 1 ,000 bulls, 1 ,000 rams, and 1 ,000 lambs, with their drink of ferings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel. 22 And they ate and drank before the LORD on that day with great gladness. Solomon Anointed King
And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and they anointed him as prince for the LORD, and Zadok as priest. 23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king in place of David his father. And he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, pledged their al legiance to King Solomon. 2 s And the LORD made Solomon very great in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

then-he-assembled l
sel of the old men, 14 King Rehoboam spoke to them according to the coun sel of the young men, saying, "My fa ther made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions." 1s so the king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of affairs brought about by God that the LORD might fulfill his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 16 And when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the peo ple answered the king, "What portion have we in David? We have no inheri tance in the son of Jesse. Each of you to your tents, 0 Israel! Look now to your own house, David:' So all Israel went to their tents. 1 7 But Rehoboam reigned over the people of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah. is Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, 1 who was taskmaster over the forced labor, and the people of Israel stoned him to death with stones. And King Re hoboam quickly mounted his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 19 So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.

2 CHRONICLES 11:5-19 they listened to the word of the LORD and returned and did not go against Jeroboam. s Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and he built cities for defense in Ju dah. 6 He built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa, 7 Beth-zur, Soco, Adullam, s Gath, Mareshah, Ziph, 9 Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah, 10 Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, fortified cities that are in Judah and in Benjamin. 11 He made the fortresses strong, and put com manders in them, and stores of food, oil, and wine. 12 And he put shields and spears in all the cities and made them very strong. So he held Judah and Benjamin. Priests and Levites Come to Jerusalem 1 3 And
the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel presented them selves to him from all places where they lived. 14 For the Levites left their common lands and their holdings and came to Judah and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons cast them out from serving as priests of the LORD, i s and he appointed his own priests for the high places and for the goat idols and for the calves that he had made. 16 And those who had set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came after them from all the tribes of Israel to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD, the God of their fathers. 1 7 They strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and for three years they made Re hoboam the son of Solomon secure, for they walked for three years in the way of David and Solomon.

7 At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, "Because you relied on the king of Syria, and did not rely on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Syria has escaped you. s Were not the Ethiopians and the Libyans a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet because you relied on the LORD, he gave them into your hand. 9 for the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless7 toward him. You have done foolishly in this, for from now on you will have wars:' 10 Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in the stocks in prison, for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Asa inflicted cruelties upon some of the people at the same time. 1 1 The acts of Asa, from first to last, are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet, and his disease became se vere. Yet even in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but sought help from physicians. 13 And Asa slept with his fathers, dying in the forty-first year of his reign. 14 They buried him in the tomb that he had cut for himself in the city of David. They laid him on a bier that had been filled with various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumer's art, and they made a very great fire in his honor.

He did not seek the Baals, 4 but sought the God of his father and walked in his commandments, and not according to the practices of Is rael. S Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand. And all Ju dah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat, and he had great riches and honor. 6 His heart was courageous in the ways of the LORD. And furthermore, he took the high places and the Ashe rim out of Judah. 7 In the third year of his reign he sent his officials, Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah; s and with them the Levites, Shemaiah, Netha niah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah; and with these Levites, the priests Elishama and Jehoram. 9 And they taught in Judah, having the Book of the Law of the LORD with them. They went about through all the cities of Judah and taught among the people. IO And the fear of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat. 1 1 Some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and silver for tribute, and the Arabians also brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats. 12 And Jehoshaphat grew steadily greater. He built in Ju dah fortresses and store cities, 13 and he had large supplies in the cities of

2 CHRONICLES 18:7-16 here another prophet of the LORD of whom we may inquire?" 7 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil.'' And Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say so." 8 Then the king of Israel summoned an offi cer and said, "Bring quickly Micaiah the son of Imlah.'' 9 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting on their thrones, arrayed in their robes. And they were sitting at the threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets were prophesying be fore them. lo And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made for himself horns of iron and said, "Thus says the LORD, 'With these you shall push the Syrians until they are destroyed.' " 1 1 And all the prophets prophesied so and said, "Go up to Ramoth-gilead and tri umph. The LORD will give it into the hand of the king.'' 12 And the messenger who went to summon Micaiah said to him, "Be hold, the words of the prophets with one accord are favorable to the king. Let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably.'' 13 But Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, what my God says, that I will speak.'' 1 4 And when he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" And he answered, "Go up and triumph; they will be given into your hand.'' 15 But the king said to him, "How many times shall I make you swear that you speak to me noth ing but the truth in the name of the LORD?" 1 6 And he said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd.

Asheroth out of the land, and have set your heart to seek God." 4 Jehoshaphat lived at Jerusalem. And he went out again among the people, from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back to the LORD, the God of their fathers. s He appointed judges in the land in all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city, 6 and said to the judges, "Consider what you do, for you judge not for man but for the LORD. He is with you in giving judg ment. 7 Now then, let the fear of the LORD be upon you. Be careful what you do, for there is no injustice with the LORD our God, or partiality or taking bribes:' s Moreover, in Jerusalem Jehosha phat appointed certain Levites and priests and heads of families of Israel, to give judgment for the LORD and to decide disputed cases. They had their seat at Jerusalem. 9 And he charged them: "Thus you shall do in the fear of the LORD, in faithfulness, and with your whole heart: 1 0 whenever a case comes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, concerning blood shed, law or commandment, statutes or rules, then you shall warn them, that they may not incur guilt before the LORD and wrath may not come upon you and your brothers. Thus you shall do, and you will not incur guilt. 11 And behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the governor of the house of Judah, in all the king's matters, and the Levites will serve you as officers. Deal courageously, and may the LORD be with the upright!" 1

2 CHRONICLES 20: 3 - 1 2 came and told Jehoshaphat, "A great multitude is coming against you from Edom, 1 from beyond the sea; and, behold, they are in Hazazon -tamar" (that is, Engedi). 3 Then Jehoshaphat was afraid and set his face to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast through out all Judah. 4 And Judah assembled to seek help from the LORD; from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD. s And Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court, 6 and said, "O LORD, God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? You rule over all the king doms of the nations. In your hand are power and might, so that none is able to withstand you. 7 Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend? s And they have lived in it and have built for you in it a sanctuary for your name, saying, 9 'If disaster comes upon us, the sword, judgment,2 or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house and before you-for your name is in this house-and cry out to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save: 10 And now behold, the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel in vade when they came from the land of Egypt, and whom they avoided and did not destroy- 11 behold, they reward us by coming to drive us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit. 12 0 our God, will you not execute judgment on them?

and the king that they should be the LORD's people. I7 Then all the people went to the house of Baal and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces, and they killed Mat tan the priest of Baal before the altars. i s And Jehoiada posted watchmen for the house of the LORD under the direction of the Levitical priests and the Levites whom David had orga nized to be in charge of the house of the LORD, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD, as it is written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and with sing ing, according to the order of David. 1 9 He stationed the gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the LORD so that no one should enter who was in any way unclean. 20 And he took the captains, the nobles, the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD, marching through the upper gate to the king's house. And they set the king on the royal throne. 21 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been put to death with the sword.

he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba. 2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest. 3 Jehoiada got for him two wives, and he had sons and daughters. 4 After this Joash decided to re store the house of the LORD. s And he gathered the priests and the Le vites and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you act quicklY:' But the Levites did not act quickly. 6 So the I Spelled fehoash in 2 Kings 1 2 : I

Ahaz's Idolatry 22 In the time of his distress he became yet more faithless to the LORD-this same King Ahaz. 23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus that had defeated him and said, "Be cause the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me:' But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel. 24 And Ahaz gathered together the vessels of the house of God and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and he shut up the doors of the house of the LORD, and he made himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem. 2s In every city of Judah he made high places to make offerings to other gods, provok ing to anger the LORD, the God of his fathers. 26Now the rest of his acts and all his ways, from first to last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, in Jerusalem, for they did not bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.

Hezekiah Reigns in Judah Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah 1 the daughter of Zechariah. 2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. Hezekiah Cleanses the Temple 3 In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the LORD and repaired them. 4 He brought in the priests and the Levites and assembled them in the square on the east s and 1 Spelled Abi in 2 Kings 1 8:2

2 CHRONICLES 29:5-15 said to them, "Hear me, Levites! Now consecrate yourselves, and consecrate the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers, and carry out the filth from the Holy Place. 6 For our fathers have been unfaithful and have done what was evil in the sight of the LORD our God. They have forsaken him and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the LORD and turned their backs. 7 They also shut the doors of the vestibule and put out the lamps and have not burned incense or offered burnt offerings in the Holy Place to the God of Israel. s Therefore the wrath of the LORD came on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has made them an object of horror, of astonishment, and of hissing, as you see with your own eyes. 9 For behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this. JO Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, in order that his fierce anger may turn away from us. 1 1 My sons, do not now be negli gent, for the LORD has chosen you to stand in his presence, to minister to him and to be his ministers and make offerings to him." 1 2 Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohath ites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershon ites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah; 13 and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah; t4 and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.

Passover Celebrated Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem to keep the Pass over to the LORD, the God of Israel. 2 For the king and his princes and all the assembly in Jerusalem had taken counsel to keep the Passover in the second month- 3 for they could not keep it at that time because the priests had not consecrated themselves in sufficient number, nor had the people assembled in Jerusalem- 4 and the plan seemed right to the king and all the assembly. s So they decreed to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come and keep the Passover to the LORD, the God of Is rael, at Jerusalem, for they had not kept it as often as prescribed. 6 So cou riers went throughout all Israel and Ju dah with letters from the king and his princes, as the king had commanded,

The Proclamation of Cyr us
In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spir it of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom and also put it in writing: 2 "Thus says Cyrus king of Persia: The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has charged me to build him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. 3 Whoever is among you of all his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and rebuild the house of the LORD, the God oflsrael-he is the God who is in Jerusalem. 4 And let each survivor, in whatever place he sojourns, be assisted by the men of his place with silver and gold, with goods and with beasts, besides freewill of ferings for the house of God that is in Jerusalem:' s Then rose up the heads of the fa thers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests and the Levites, ev eryone whose spirit God had stirred to go up to rebuild the house of the LORD that is in Jerusalem. 6 And all who were about them aided them with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, with beasts, and with costly wares, besides all that was freely of fered. 7 Cyrus the king also brought out the vessels of the house of the LORD that Nebuchadnezzar had car ried away from Jerusalem and placed in the house of his gods. s Cyrus king of Persia brought these out in the charge of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out to Shesh bazzar the prince of Judah. 9 And this was the number of them: 30 basins of

Shethar-bozenai, and your7 associates the governors who are in the province Beyond the River, keep away. 7 Let the work on this house of God alone. Let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its site. 8 Moreover, I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the Jews for the rebuilding of this house of God. The cost is to be paid to these men in full and with out delay from the royal revenue, the tribute of the province from Beyond the River. 9 And whatever is needed bulls, rams, or sheep for burnt offer ings to the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, or oil, as the priests at Jerusalem require-let that be given to them day by day without fail, 10 that they may offer pleasing sacrifices to the God of heaven and pray for the !ife of the king and his sons. 1 1 Also I make a de cree that if anyone alters this edict, a beam shall be pulled out of his house, and he shall be impaled on it, and his house shall be made a dunghill. 1 2 May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow any king or people who shall put out a hand to alter this, or to destroy this house of God that is in Jerusalem. I Darius make a decree; let it be done with all diligence:' The Temple Fin ished and Dedicated
13 Then, according to the word sent by Darius the king, Tattenai, the governor of the province Beyond the River, Shethar-bozenai, and their as sociates did with all diligence what Darius the king had ordered. 14 And the elders of the Jews built and pros pered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They finished their build ing by decree of the God of Israel and by decree of Cyrus and Darius and 1 Aramaic

chief priest- 6 this Ezra went up from Babylonia. He was a scribe skilled in the Law of Moses that the LORD, the God of Israel, had given, and the king granted him all that he asked, for the hand of the LORD his God was on him. 7 And there went up also to Jerusa lem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king, some of the people of Israel, and some of the priests and Levites, the singers and gatekeepers, and the temple servants. B And Ezra 1 came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king. 9 For on the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylonia, and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, for the good hand of his God was on him. 10 For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. 1 1 This is a copy of the letter that

EZRA 9: 1 3- 1 0:6 of the land and leave it for an inheri tance to your children forever: 1 3 And after all that has come upon us for our evil deeds and for our great guilt, see ing that you, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserved and have given us such a remnant as this, 14 shall we break your com mandments again and intermarry with the peoples who practice these abominations? Would you not be an gry with us until you consumed us, so that there should be no remnant, nor any to escape? i s 0 LORD, the God of Israel, you are just, for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is to day. Behold, we are before you in our guilt, for none can stand before you because of this:' The People Confess Their Sin
10
While Ezra prayed and made confession, weeping and cast ing himself down before the house of God, a very great assembly of men, women, and children, gathered to him out of Israel, for the people wept bitterly. 2 And Shecaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, addressed Ezra: "We have broken faith with our God and have married foreign women from the peoples of the land, but even now there is hope for Israel in spite of this. 3 Therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all these wives and their children, ac cording to the counsel of my lord 1 and of those who tremble at the com mandment of our God, and let it be done according to the Law. 4 Arise, for it is your task, and we are with you; be strong and do it:' s Then Ezra arose and made the leading priests and Levites and all Israel take an oath that they would do as had been said. So they took the oath. 6 Then Ezra withdrew from be fore the house of God and went to the chamber of Jehohanan the son of 1 Or

Now the king had sent with me officers of the army and horsemen. 10 But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite servant heard this, it displeased them greatly that someone had come to seek the welfare of the people of Israel. 11 So I went to Jerusalem and was there three days. 12 Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me. And I told no one what my God had put into my heart to do for Jerusalem. There was no animal with me but the one on which I rode. 13 I went out by night by the Valley Gate to the Dragon Spring and to the Dung Gate, and I inspected the walls of Jerusalem that were bro ken down and its gates that had been destroyed by fire. 14 Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and to the King's Pool, but there was no room for the animal that was under me to pass. 1 5 Then I went up in the night by the valley and inspected the wall, and I turned back and entered by the Valley Gate, and so returned. 16 And the of ficials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, and I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles,

wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work. 7 1 But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the re pairing of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and that the breaches were beginning to be closed, they were very angry. s And they all plot ted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and to cause confusion in it. 9 And we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night. 10 In Judah it was said,2 "The strength of those who bear the bur dens is failing. There is too much rubble. By ourselves we will not be able to rebuild the wall:' 11 And our enemies said, "They will not know or see till we come among them and kill them and stop the work:' 12 At that time the Jews who lived near them came from all directions and said to us ten times, "You must return to us:'3 1 3 So in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in open places, I stationed the people by their clans, with their swords, their spears, and their bows. 1 4 And I looked and arose and said to the nobles and to the offi cials and to the rest of the people, "Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes."

NEHEMIAH 4: 1 0 [ 1 6] -5:4 that day on, half of my servants worked on construction, and half held the spears, shields, bows, and coats of mail. And the leaders stood behind the whole house of Judah, 17 who were building on the wall. Those who carried burdens were loaded in such a way that each labored on the work with one hand and held his weapon with the other. i s And each of the builders had his sword strapped at his side while he built. The man who sounded the trumpet was beside me. 1 9 And I said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, "The work is great and widely spread, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another. 20 In the place where you hear the sound of the trum pet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us:' 2 1 So we labored at the work, and half of them held the spears from the break of dawn until the stars came out. 22 I also said to the people at that time, "Let every man and his servant pass the night within Jerusalem, that they may be a guard for us by night and may labor by day." 23 So neither I nor my brothers nor my servants nor the men of the guard who followed me, none of us took off our clothes; each kept his weapon at his right hand. 7

from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twen tieth year to the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, neither I nor my brothers ate the food allowance of the governor. lS The for mer governors who were before me laid heavy burdens on the people and took from them for their daily ration 1 forty shekels2 of silver. Even their ser vants lorded it over the people. But I did not do so, because of the fear of God. 1 6 I also persevered in the work on this wall, and we acquired no land, and all my servants were gathered there for the work. 17 Moreover, there were at my table 1 50 men, Jews and officials, besides those who came to us from the nations that were around us. i s Now what was prepared at my expense3 for each day was one ox and six choice sheep and birds, and every ten days all kinds of wine in abundance. Yet for all this I did not demand the food allowance of the governor, because the service was too heavy on this people. 1 9 Remember for my good, 0 my God, all that I have done for this people.

9 And Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, "This day is holy to the LORD your God; do not mourn or weep:' For all the people wept as they heard the words of the Law. 10 Then he said to them, "Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to any one who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength:' 1 1 So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, "Be quiet, for this day is holy; do not be grieved." I 2 And all the people went their way to eat and drink and to send portions and to make great rejoicing, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.

And we will forego the crops of the seventh year and the exaction of every debt. 32 "We also take on ourselves the obligation to give yearly a third part of a shekel 1 for the service of the house of our God: 33 for the showbread, the regular grain offering, the regular burnt offering, the Sabbaths, the new moons, the appointed feasts, the holy things, and the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God. 34 We, the priests, the Levites, and the people, have likewise cast lots for the wood of fering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers' houses, at times appointed, year by year, to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the Law. 35 We obligate ourselves to bring the first fruits of our ground and the firstfruits of all fruit of every tree, year by year, to the house of the LORD; 36 also to bring to the house of our God, to the priests who minister in the house of our God, the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, as it is written in the Law, and the firstborn of our herds and of our flocks; 37 and to bring the first of our dough, and our contributions, the fruit of every tree, the wine and the oil, to the priests, to the chambers of the house of our God; and to bring to the Levites the tithes from our ground, for it is the Levites who col lect the tithes in all our towns where we labor. 38 And the priest, the son of Aaron, shall be with the Levites when the Levites receive the tithes.

surrounding Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites; 29 also from Beth-gilgal and from the region of Geba and Azmaveth, for the sing ers had built for themselves villages around Jerusalem. 30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and they purified the people and the gates and the wall. 31 Then I brought the leaders of Ju dah up onto the wall and appointed two great choirs that gave thanks. One went to the south on the wall to the Dung Gate. 32 And after them went Hoshaiah and half of the leaders of Judah, 33 and Azariah, Ezra, Meshul lam, 34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, and Jeremiah, 35 and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Micaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph; 36 and his relatives, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God. And Ezra the scribe went before them. 37 At the Fountain Gate they went up straight before them by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, to the Water Gate on the east. 38 The other choir of those who gave thanks went to the north, and I followed them with half of the people, on the wall, above the Tower of the Ovens, to the Broad Wall, 39 and above the Gate of Ephraim, and by the Gate of Yeshanah, 1 and by the Fish Gate and the Tower of Hananel and the Tower of the Hundred, to the Sheep Gate; and they came to a halt at the Gate of the Guard. 40 So both choirs of those who gave thanks stood in the house of God, and I and half of the officials with me; 4 1 and the priests Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elio enai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets; 42 and Maaseiah, Shemaiah, 1 Or

44 On that day men were appointed over the storerooms, the contribu tions, the firstfruits, and the tithes, to gather into them the portions re quired by the Law for the priests and for the Levites according to the fields of the towns, for Judah rejoiced over the priests and the Levites who min istered. 45 And they performed the service of their God and the service of purification, as did the singers and the gatekeepers, according to the command of David and h is son Solo mon. 46 for long ago in the days of David and Asaph there were directors of the singers, and there were songs I of praise and thanksgiving to God. 47 And all Israel in the days of Zerub babel and in the days of Nehemiah gave the daily portions for the sing ers and the gatekeepers; and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
1 3 On that day . they read from
Nehemiah's Final Reforms
the Book of Moses in the hearing of the people. And in it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever enter the assem bly of God, 2 for they did not meet the people of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them-yet our God turned the curse into a blessing. 3 As soon as the people heard the law, they sepa rated from Israel all those of foreign descent. 1 Now before this, Eliashib the priest, who was appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, and who was related to Tobiah, ' O r lcudcr.<

s prepared for Tobiah a large chamber where they had previously put the grain offering, the frankincense, the vessels, and the tithes of grain, wine, and oil, which were given by com mandment to the Levites, singers, and gatekeepers, and the contributions for the priests. 6 While this was taking place, I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I went to the king. And after some time I asked leave of the king 7 and came to Jerusalem, and I then discovered the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, prepar ing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. s And I was very angry, and I threw all the household furniture of Tobiah out of the cham ber. 9 Then I gave orders, and they cleansed the chambers, and I brought back there the vessels of the house of God, with the grain offering and the frankincense. 1 0 1 also found out that the portions of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the sing ers, who did the work, had fled each to his field. 1 1 So I confronted the of ficials and said, "Why is the house of God forsaken?" And I gathered them
together and set them in their sta tions. 1 2 Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain, wine, and oil into the storehouses. 13 And I appointed as treasurers over the storehouses Shele miah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites, and as their assistant Hanan the son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for they were con sidered reliable, and their duty was to distribute to their brothers. 1 4 Re member me, 0 my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God and for his service. i s I n those days I saw i n Judah
NEHEMIAH 1 3 : 1 6-24 people treading winepresses o n the Sabbath, and bringing in heaps of grain and loading them on donkeys, and also wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of loads, which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I warned them on the day when they sold food. 16 Tyrians also, who lived in the city, brought in fish and all kinds of goods and sold them on the Sabbath to the people of Judah, in Jerusalem itself! !? Then I confronted the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this evil thing that you are doing, profaning the Sabbath day? i s Did not your fathers act in this way, and did not our God bring all this disasterl on us and on this city? Now you are bringing more wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath:' 19 As soon as it began to grow dark
at the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut and gave orders that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. And I stationed some of my servants at the gates, that no load might be brought in on the Sabbath day. 20Then the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares lodged outside Je rusalem once or twice. 21 But I warned them and said to them, "Why do you lodge outside the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you:' From that time on they did not come on the Sabbath. 22 Then I commanded the Levites that they should purify them selves and come and guard the gates, to keep the Sabbath day holy. Remem ber this also in my favor, 0 my God, and spare me according to the great ness of your steadfast love.
23 In those days also I saw the Jews who had married women of Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab. 24 And half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod, and they could not speak I The Hebrew word can mean evil, harm, or disaster, depending on the context

And I made them take an oath in the name of God, saying, "You shall not give your daughters to their sons, or take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. 26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin on account of such women? Among the many nations there was no king like him,
and he was beloved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless, foreign women made even him to sin. 27 Shall we then listen to you and do all this great evil and act treacherously against our God by marrying foreign women?" 2 s And one of the sons of Jehoiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was the son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite. Therefore I chased him from me. 29 Remember them, 0 my God, because they have desecrated the priesthood and the covenant of the priesthood and the Levites. 30 Thus I cleansed them from ev erything foreign, and I established the duties of the priests and Levites, each in his work; 31 and I provided for the wood offering at appointed times, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, 0 my God, for good.

The King's Banquets
Now in the days of Ahasuerus, the Ahasuerus who reigned from India to Ethiopia over 127 provinces, 2 in those days when King Ahasu erus sat on his royal throne in Susa, the citadel, 3 in the third year of his reign he gave a feast for all his offi cials and servants. The army of Persia and Media and the nobles and gov ernors of the provinces were before him, 4 while he showed the riches of his royal glory and the splendor and pomp of his greatness for many days, 1 80 days. s And when these days were completed, the king gave for all the people present in Susa the citadel, both great and small, a feast lasting for seven days in the court of the gar den of the king's palace. 6 There were white cotton curtains and violet hang ings fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rods I and marble pillars, and also couches of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of por phyry, marble, mother-of-pearl and precious stones. 7 Drinks were served in golden vessels, vessels of different kinds, and the royal wine was lavished according to the bounty of the king. s And drinking was according to this edict: "There is no compulsion:' For the king had given orders to all the staff of his palace to do as each man desired. 9 Queen Vashti also gave a feast for the women in the palace that belonged to King Ahasuerus. Queen Vashti's Refusal 10
On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha and Abag tha, Zethar and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus, 11 to bring Queen I

Haman Plots Against the Jews
After these things King Ahas uerus promoted Haman the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, and advanced him and set his throne above all the officials who were with him. 2 And all the king's servants who were at the king's gate bowed down and paid homage to Haman, for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai did not bow down or pay homage. 3 Then the king's ser vants who were at the king's gate said to Mordecai, "Why do you transgress the king's command?" 4 And when they spoke to him day after day and he would not listen to them, they told Haman, in order to see whether Mordecai's words would stand, for he had told them that he was a Jew. s And when Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow down or pay homage to him, Haman was filled with fury. 6 But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone. So, as they had made known to him the people of Mordecai, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus. 7 In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, they cast lots) before Haman day after day; and they cast it month after month till the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar. s Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom.

ESTHER 4: 10-5:2 spoke to Hathach and commanded him to go to Mordecai and say, 11 ''All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that if any man or woman goes to the king inside the inner court without being called, there is but one law-to be put to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter so that he may live. But as for me, I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days:' 1 2 And they told Mordecai what Esther had said. 1 3 Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, "Do not think to yourself that in the king's pal ace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. 1 4 For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this ? " i s Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai, J 6 "Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish:' 1 7 Mordecai then went away and did everything as Esther had ordered him.

Esther Prepares a Banquet
On the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, in front of the king's quarters, while the king was sitting on his royal throne inside the throne room opposite the entrance to the palace. 2 And when the king saw Queen Esther stand ing in the court, she won favor in his sight, and he held out to Esther the

It shall be given you, even to the half of my kingdom:' 4 And Esther said, "If it please the king, let the king and Haman come today to a feast that I have prepared for the king:' s Then the king said, "Bring Haman quickly, so that we may do as Esther has asked." So the king and Haman came to the feast that Es ther had prepared. 6 And as they were drinking wine after the feast, the king said to Esther, "What is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled:' 7 Then Esther answered, "My wish and my request is: s If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my wish and fulfill my request, let the king and Haman come to the feast that I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said:' Haman Plans to Hang Mordecai
9 And Haman went out that day joyful and glad of heart. But when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he neither rose nor trembled before him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai. 1 0 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home, and he sent and brought his friends and his wife Zeresh. 11 And Haman recounted to them the splen dor of his riches, the number of his sons, all the promotions with which the king had honored him, and how he had advanced him above the of ficials and the servants of the king. 12 Then Haman said, "Even Queen Es ther let no one but me come with the king to the feast she prepared. And
ESTHER 5: 13-6:8 tomorrow also I am invited by her together with the king. u Yet all this is worth nothing to me, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate:' 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows I fifty cubits2 high be made, and in the morning tell the king to have Morde cai hanged upon it. Then go joyfully with the king to the feast:' This idea pleased Haman, and he had the gal lows made.

ESTHER 8:9- 1 5 b e revoked." 9The king's scribes were summoned at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty third day. And an edict was written, according to all that Mordecai com manded concerning the Jews, to the satraps and the governors and the officials of the provinces from India to Ethiopia, 127 provinces, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, and also to the Jews in their script and their language. 10 And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed it with the king's signet ring. Then he sent the letters by mounted couriers riding on swift horses that were used in the king's service, bred from the royal stud, 11 saying that the king al lowed the Jews who were in every city to gather and defend their lives, to destroy, to kill, and to annihilate any armed force of any people or prov ince that might attack them, children and women included, and to plunder their goods, 1 2 on one day throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar. 1 3 A copy of what was written was to be issued as a decree in every prov ince, being publicly displayed to all peoples, and the Jews were to be ready on that day to take vengeance on their enemies. 1 4 So the couriers, mounted on their swift horses that were used in the king's service, rode out hur riedly, urged by the king's command. And the decree was issued in Susa the citadel. i s Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown 1 and a robe of fine linen and 1 O r headdress

ESTHER 9: 1 1- 1 9 sons o f Haman the son of Hammeda tha, the enemy of the Jews, but they laid no hand on the plunder. 11 That very day the number of those killed in Susa the citadel was re ported to the king. 1 2 And the king said to Queen Esther, "In Susa the citadel the Jews have killed and destroyed 500 men and also the ten sons of Haman. What then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now what is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what further is your request? It shall be fulfilled:' 1 3 And Esther said, "If it please the king, let the Jews who are in Susa be allowed tomorrow also to do according to this day's edict. And let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows:' 1 1 4 So the king commanded this to be done. A decree was issued in Susa, and the ten sons of Haman were hanged. is The Jews who were in Susa gathered also on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar and they killed 300 men in Susa, but they laid no hands on the plunder. 1 6 Now the rest of the Jews who were in the king's provinces also gathered to defend their lives, and got relief from their enemies and killed 75,000 of those who hated them, but they laid no hands on the plunder. 1 7 This was on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, and on the fourteenth day they rested and made that a day of feasting and gladness. IB But the Jews who were in Susa gathered on the thirteenth day and on the fourteenth, and rested on the fifteenth day, making that a day of feasting and gladness.

ESTHER 9:28 - 1 0:3 to what was written and at the time appointed every year, 2s that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, in every clan, province, and city, and that these days of Purim should never fall into disuse among the Jews, nor should the commemoration of these days cease among their descendants. 29 Then Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew gave full written authority, confirming this second letter about Purim. 30 Letters were sent to all the Jews, to the 1 27 provinces of the kingdom of Ahas uerus, in words of peace and truth, 31 that these days of Purim should be observed at their appointed seasons, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Es ther obligated them, and as they had obligated themselves and their off spring, with regard to their fasts and their lamenting. 3 2 The command of Queen Esther confirmed these prac tices of Purim, and it was recorded in writing. The G reatness of Mordecai
10
King Ahasuerus imposed tax on the land and on the coast lands of the sea. 2 And all the acts of his power and might, and the full ac count of the high honor of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3 For Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus, and he was great among the Jews and popular with the multitude of his brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and spoke peace to all his people.

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job, and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil. 2 There were born to him seven sons and three daughters. 3 He possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east. 4 His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. s And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and consecrate them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my children have sinned, and cursed 1 God in their hearts:' Thus Job did continually.

Satan Takes Job's Property and Children
1 3 Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house, 1 4 and there came a messenger to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them, i s and the Sabeans fell upon them and took them and struck down the servants! with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you:' 16 While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you:' t7 While he was yet speak ing, there came another and said, "The Chal deans formed three groups and made a raid on the camels and took them and struck down the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you:' 1 8 While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking

Satan answered the and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it:' 3 And the said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you incited me against him to destroy him without reason." 4 Then Satan answered the and said, "Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life. s But stretch out your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face:'

JOB 2:6-3:4 6 A n d t h e LORD said t o Satan, "Behold, he is i n your hand; only spare h i s life:' 7 So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. s And he took a piece of broken pottery with which to scrape himself while he sat in the ashes. 9 Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and die:' 1 0 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the fool ish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?" 1 In all this Job did not sin with his lips. Job's Three Friends
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naama thite. They made an appointment together to come to show him sympathy and comfort him. 1 2 And when they saw him from a distance, they did not recognize him. And they raised their voices and wept, and they tore their robes and sprinkled dust on their heads toward heaven. 13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.

Job Laments His Birth
After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth. 2 And Job said:
3 " Let the day perish on which I was born, and the night that said, 'A man is conceived.' 4 Let that day be darkness! ' Or disaster; also verse 1 1

Job Continues: My Life Has No Hope
" Has not man a hard service on earth, and are not his days like the days of a hired hand? Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hired hand who looks for his wages, 3 so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me. 4 When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn. s My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh. 6 My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle and come to their end without hope.

when he overturns them in his anger, 6 who shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble; 7 who commands the sun, and it does not rise; who seals up the stars; s who alone stretched out the heavens and trampled the waves of the sea; 9 who made the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the chambers of the south; 1 0 who does great things beyond searching out, and marvelous things beyond number. 11 Behold, he passes by me, and I see him not he moves on, but I do not perceive him. 1 2 Behold, he snatches away; who can turn him back? Who will say to him, 'What are you doing?' 13

JOB 9:25- 1 0:8 if it is not he, who then is it? 2s
" My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away; they see no good. 2 6 They go by like skiffs of reed, like an eagle swooping on the prey. 27 If I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and be of good cheer; 2 s I become afraid of all my suffering, for I know you will not hold me innocent. 29 I shall be condemned; why then do I labor in vain? 3 0 If I wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye, 3 1 yet you will plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me. 3 2 For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together. 33 There is no 1 arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both. 34 Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me. 35 Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.
Job Continues: A Plea to God
10 3
4 s 6 7
8
"I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why you contend against me. Does it seem good to you to oppress, to despise the work of your hands and favor the designs of the wicked? Have you eyes of flesh? Do you see as man sees? Are your days as the days of man, or your years as a man's years, that you seek out my iniquity and search for my sin, although you know that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of your hand? Your hands fashioned and made me, and now you have destroyed me altogether.

Remember that you have made me like clay; and will you return me to the dust? 10 Did you not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese? 11 You clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews. 12 You have granted me life and steadfast love, and your care has preserved my spi rit. u Yet these things you hid in your heart; I know that this was your purpose. 14 If I sin, you watch me and do not acquit me of my iniquity. i s If I am guilty, woe to me! If I am in the right, I cannot lift up m' head, for I am filled with disgrace and look on my affliction. 16 And were my head lifted up,1 you would hunt me like a lion and again work wonders against me. 1 7 You renew your witnesses against me and increase your vexation toward me: you bring fresh troops against me.

JOB 1 1:5- 12:2 s 6
But oh, that God would speak and open his lips to you, and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. I Know then that God exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.
7
" Can you find out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limit of the Almighty? s It is higher than heaven2-what can you do? Deeper than Sheol-what can you know? 9 Its measure is longer than the earth and broader than the sea. 10 If he passes through and imprisons and summons the court, who can turn him back? 11 For he knows worthless men; when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it? 1 2 But a stupid man will get understanding when a wild donkey's colt is born a man! 13
" If you prepare your heart, you will stretch out your hands toward him. 1 4 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, and let not injustice dwell in your tents. ts Surely then you will lift up your face without blemish; you will be secure and will not fear. 1 6 You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away. 1 7 And your life will be brighter than the noonday; its darkness will be like the morning. 18 And you will feel secure, because there is hope; you will look around and take your rest in security. 1 9 You will lie down, and none will make you afraid; many will court your favor. 20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail; all way of escape will be lost to them, and their hope is to breathe their last:'

JOB 15:22- 16:3 in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him. He does not believe that he will return out of darkness, and he is marked for the sword. He wanders abroad for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand; distress and anguish terrify him; they prevail against him, like a king ready for battle. Because he has stretched out his hand against God and defies the Almighty, running stubbornly against him with a thickly bossed shield; because he has covered his face with his fat and gathered fat upon his waist and has lived in desolate cities, in houses that none should inhabit, which were ready to become heaps of ruins; he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure, nor will his possessions spread over the earth; 7 he will not depart from darkness; the flame will dry up his shoots, and by the breath of his mouth he will depart. Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself, for emptiness will be his payment. It will be paid in full before his time, and his branch will not be green. He will shake off his unripe grape like the vine, and cast off his blossom like the olive tree. For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of bribery. They conceive trouble and give birth to evil, and their womb prepares deceit:'

and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me? Surely now God has worn me out; he has 1 made desolate all my company. And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me, and my leanness has risen up against me; it testifies to my face. He has torn me in his wrath and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me. Men have gaped at me with their mouth; they have struck me insolently on the cheek; they mass themselves together against me . God gives me up to the ungodly and casts me into the hands of the wicked. I was at ease, and he broke me apart; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target; his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground. He breaks me with breach upon breach; he runs upon me like a warrior. I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin and have laid my strength in the dust. My face is red with weeping, and on my eyelids is deep darkness, although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure.

Bildad Speaks: God Punishes the Wicked
18
T en Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 " How long will you hunt for words?
Consider, and then we will speak. 3 Why are we counted as cattle? Why are we stupid in your sight? 4 You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you, or the rock be removed out of its place? s
" Indeed, the light of the wicked is put out, and the flame of his fire does not shine. 6 The light is dark in his tent, and his lamp above him is put out. 7 His strong steps are shortened, and his own schemes throw him down. s For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walks on its mesh. 9 A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare lays hold of him. 1 0 A rope is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him in the path. 1 1 Terrors frighten him on every side, and chase him at his heels. 1 2 His strength is famished, and calamity is ready for his stumbling. 13 It consumes the parts of his skin; the firstborn of death consumes his limbs. 1 4 He is torn from the tent in which he trusted and is brought to the king of terrors. i s In his tent dwells that which is none of his; sulfur is scattered over his habitation. 1 6 His roots dry up beneath, and his branches wither above. 17 His memory perishes from the earth, and he has no name in the street. i s He is thrust from light into darkness, and driven out of the world. 1 9 He has no posterity or progeny among his people, and no survivor where he used to live. 20 They of the west are appalled at his day, and horror seizes them of the east.

I may make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and God of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell, 4 but
will go to my country and to my
kindred, and take a wife for my son Isaac:' s The servant said to him, "Per haps the woman may not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I then take your son back to the land from which you came?'' 6 Abraham said to him, "See to it that you do not take my son back there. 7 The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my kindred, and who spoke to me and swore to me, 'To your offspring I will give this land; he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there. s But if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be free from this oath of mine; only you must not take my son back there:' 9 So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham

every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city. 2s On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their
GENESIS 34:26-35:4 swords and came against the city while it felt secure and killed all the males. 26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and went away. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister. 2s They took their flocks and their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and in the field. 29 All their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and plundered. 30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me by making me stink to the in habitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household:' 31
But they said, "Should he treat our
sister like a prostitute?"

M? "JiN -p.
beyond the tower of Eder. 22
While Israel lived in that land,
Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine. And Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve. 23 The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob's firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Is sachar, and Zebulun. 24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. 2s The sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali. 26 The sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram. 27 And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned. 28 Now the days of Isaac were
1 80
years. 29 And Isaac
breathed his last, and he died and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
36
These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2 Esau
took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter3 of Zibeon the Hivite, 3 and 1 Ben-oni could mean son of my sorrow, or son of my strength 2 Benjamin means son of the right hand 3 Hebrew; Samaritan, Septuagint, Syriac son; also verse 1 4

Behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me:' 10 But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him and said to him, "What is this dream that you have dreamed?

GENESIS 39: 1 0-2 1 has he kept back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wicked ness and sin against God?" 10 And as she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her, to lie beside her or to be with her. 11
But one day, when he went into
the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house, 12 she caught him by his garment, saying, "Lie with me:' But he left his garment in her hand and fled and got out of the house. 13 And as soon as she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled out of the house, 14 she called to the men of her household and said to

Joseph Rises to Power 37 This proposal pleased Pharaoh and all his servants. 38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?" 7 39 Then Pharaoh said to Jo seph, "Since God has shown you all
house, and all my people shall order
than you:' 41 And Pharaoh said to Jo seph, "See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt:' 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain about his neck. 43 And he made him ride in his second chariot. And they called out before him, "Bow the knee!"J Thus he set him over all
to
Pharaoh
and without your consent no one shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of Egypt:' 45 And Pharaoh called Jo seph's name Zaphenath-paneah. And he gave him in marriage Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On. So Joseph went out over the land of Egypt. 46 Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out

began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. 55 When all the land ofEgypt was fam ished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Pharaoh said to all the Egyp tians, "Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do:' 56 So when the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened all the storehousesJ and sold to the Egyp tians, for the famine was severe in the
grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.
42
Joseph's Brothers Go to Egypt When Jacob learned that there was grain for sale in Egypt, he
said to his sons, "Why do you look at one another?" 2 And he said, "Behold, I have heard that there is grain for for us there, that we may live and not die:' 3 So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt. 4 But Ja cob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with his brothers, for he feared that harm might happen to him. 5 Thus the sons of Israel came to 1 Manasseh sounds like the Hebrew for making to forget 2 Ephraim sounds like the Hebrew for makingfruitful J Hebrew all that was in them

Then I will re turn: " 6 And Pharaoh answered, "Go up, and bury your father, as he made you swear:' 7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. With him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt, s as well as all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their children, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen. 9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company. 10 When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is be yond the Jordan, they lamented there with a very great and grievous lam entation, and he made a mourning for his father seven days. 1 1 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaan ites, saw the mourning on the thresh ing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a

LEVITICUS 5:7- 1 5 7 "But if he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring to the LORD as his compensation for the sin that he has committed two turtledoves or two pi geons, 1 one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. s He shall bring them to the priest, who shall of fer first the one for the sin offering. He shall wring its head from its neck but shall not sever it completely, 9 and he shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, while the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the al tar; it is a sin offering. J O Then he shall offer the second for a burnt offering according to the rule. And the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin that he has committed, and he shall be forgiven. 11 "But if he cannot afford two tur tledoves or two pigeons, then he shall bring as his offering for the sin that he has committed a tenth of an ephah2 of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it and shall put no frank incense on it, for it is a sin offering. 12 And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take a handful of it as its memorial portion and burn this on the altar, on the LORD's food offerings; it is a sin offering. 1 3 Thus the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he has commit ted in any one of these things, and he shall be forgiven. And the remainder3 shall be for the priest, as in the grain offering:'

You shall bring it well mixed, in baked2 pieces like a grain offering, and offer it for a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 22 The priest from among Aaron's sons, who is anointed to suc ceed him, shall offer it to the LORD as decreed forever. The whole of it shall be burned. 23 Every grain offering of a priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten." 24 The Lo RD spoke to Moses, say ing, 2s "Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin of fering. In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD; it is most holy. 26 The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it.

LEVITICUS 6:2 1 [28 ] -7:9 be holy, and when any of i t s blood i s splashed o n a garment, you shall wash that on which it was splashed in a holy place. 2s And the earthenware vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken. But if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, that shall be scoured and rinsed in water. 29 Every male among the priests may eat of it; it is most holy. 30 But no sin offering shall be eaten from which any blood is brought into the tent of meet ing to make atonement in the Holy Place; it shall be burned up with fire. "This is the law of the guilt offer ing. It is most holy. 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the guilt offering, and its blood shall be thrown against the sides of the altar. 3 And all its fat shall be offered, the fat tail, the fat that cov ers the entrails, 4 the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys. S The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering to the LORD; it is a guilt of fering. 6 Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy. 7 The guilt offer ing is just like the sin offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with it shall have it. s And the priest who offers any man's burnt offering shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering that he has offered. 9 And every grain offering baked in the oven and all that is pre pared on a pan or a griddle shall be long to the priest who offers it. 10 And

LEVITICUS 1 3 :5- 1 4 i n i t has not turned white, the priest shall shut up the diseased person for seven days. s And the priest shall examine him on the seventh day, and if in his eyes the disease is checked and the disease has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall shut him up for another seven days. 6 And the priest shall examine him again on the sev enth day, and if the diseased area has faded and the disease has not spread in the skin, then the priest shall pro nounce him clean; it is only an erup tion. And he shall wash his clothes and be clean. 7 But if the eruption spreads in the skin, after he has shown himself to the priest for his cleansing, he shall appear again before the priest. B And the priest shall look, and if the eruption has spread in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him un clean; it is a leprous disease. 9 "When a man is afflicted with a leprous disease, he shall be brought to the priest, 10 and the priest shall look. And if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white, and there is raw flesh in the swelling, 1 1 it is a chronic leprous disease in the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He shall not shut him up, for he is unclean. 1 2 And if the leprous disease breaks out in the skin, so that the leprous disease cov ers all the skin of the diseased person from head to foot, so far as the priest can see, 13 then the priest shall look, and if the leprous disease has covered all his body, he shall pronounce him clean of the disease; it has all turned white, and he is clean. 14 But when

And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. 26 And the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand, 27 and shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD. 2s And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the lobe of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, in the place where the blood of the guilt offering was put. 29 And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD. 30 And he shall offer, of the turtledoves or pigeons, whichever he can afford, 3 1 one 1 for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering, along with a grain offering. And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for him who is being cleansed. 32 This is the law for him in whom is a case of lep rous disease, who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing."
33 The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 34 "When you come into the land of Canaan, which I give you for a possession, and I put a case 1

I 9 And Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the LORD and use it as a sin of fering, JO but the goat on which the lot fell for Azazel shall be presented alive before the LORD to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness to Azazel. 11 "Aaron shall present the bull as a sin offering for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house. He shall kill the bull as a sin offering for himself. 12 And he shall take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before the LORD, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and he shall bring it inside the veil 13 and put the incense on the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is over the testimony, so that he does not die. 14 And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the front of the mercy seat on the east side, and in front of the mercy seat he shall sprin kle some of the blood with his finger seven times. i s "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering that is for the people and bring its blood inside the veil and do with its blood as he did with the blood of the bull, sprinkling it over the mercy seat and in front of the mercy seat. 16 Thus he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleannesses of the people of Israel and because of their transgres sions, all their sins. And so he shall do for the tent of meeting, which dwells with them in the midst of their un cleannesses. 17 No one may be in the tent of meeting from the time he en ters to make atonement in the Holy 1 The meaning of Azazel is uncertain; possibly the name of a place or a demon, traditionally a scapegoat; also verses 1 0, 26

And he shall put them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness. 22 The goat shall bear all their iniquities on itself to a remote area, and he shall let the goat go free in the wilderness. 23 " Then Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting and shall take off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the Holy Place and shall leave them there. 24 And he shall bathe his body in water in a holy place and put on his garments and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people and make atonement for himself and for the people. 2s And the fat of the sin offer ing he shall burn on the altar. 26 And he who lets the goat go to Azazel shall

Whoever eats it shall be cut off. i s And every person who eats what dies of itself or what is torn by beasts, whether he is a native or a sojourner, shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be un clean until the evening; then he shall be clean. 16 But if he does not wash them or bathe his flesh, he shall bear his iniquity."

Jo So keep my charge never to practice any of these abominable customs that were practiced before you, and never to make yourselves unclean by them: I am the LORD your God."

J Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father, and you shall keep my Sab baths: I am the LORD your God. 4 Do not turn to idols or make for your selves any gods of cast metal: I am the LORD your God. s "When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted. 6 It shall be eaten the same day you of fer it or on the day after, and anything left over until the third day shall be burned up with fire. 7 If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is tainted; it will not be accepted, s and everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned what is holy to the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from his people. Love You r Neighbor as You rself

J o And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vine yard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the LORD your God. 'J "You shall not steal; you shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another. 1 2 you shall not swear by my name falsely, and so profane the name of your God: I am the LORD. 1 J "You shall not oppress your neighbor or rob him.

B Then they shall spread over them a cloth of scar let and cover the same with a covering of goatskin, and shall put in its poles. 9 And they shall take a cloth of blue and cover the lampstand for the light, with its lamps, its tongs, its trays, and all the vessels for oil with which it is supplied. 10 And they shall put it with all its utensils in a covering of goat1 The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain; compare Exodus 25:5

And they shall do all that needs to be done with regard to them. 27 All the service of the sons of the Gershonites shall be at the com mand of Aaron and his sons, in all that they are to carry and in all that they have to do. And you shall assign to their charge all that they are to car ry. 2s This is the service of the clans of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting, and their guard duty is to be under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 29 "As for the sons of Merari, you shall list them by their clans and their fathers' houses. 3 0 From thirty years old up to fifty years old, you shall list them, everyone who can come on duty, to do the service of the tent of meeting. 31 And this is what they are charged to carry, as the whole of their service in the tent of meeting: the frames of the tabernacle, with its bars, pillars, and bases, 32 and the pillars around the court with their

Confession and Restitution
s And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 6 "Speak to the people of Is rael, When a man or woman commits any of the sins that people commit by breaking faith with the LORD, and that person realizes his guilt, 7 he shall confess his sin that he has commit ted.2 And he shall make full restitu1 Leprosy was a term for several skin diseases; see Leviticus 13 2 Hebrew they shall confess their sin that they have committed

Israel Leaves Sinai
1 1 I n t h e second year, in t h e sec ond month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud lifted from over the tabernacle of the testimony, 12 and the people of Israel set out by stages from the wilderness of Sinai. And the cloud settled down in the wilderness of Paran. 1 3 They set out for the first time at the command of the LORD by Moses. 14 The standard of the camp of the people of Judah set out first by their companies, and over their company was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. i s And over the company of the tribe of the people of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar. 16 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon. 1 7 And when the tabernacle was taken down, the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who carried the tabernacle, set out. i s And the stan dard of the camp of Reuben set out by their companies, and over their com pany was Elizur the son of Shedeur. 1 9 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Simeon was Shelu miel the son of Zurishaddai. 20 And over the company of the tribe of the

NUMBERS 1 5:27-38 t h e people of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger who sojourns among them, because the whole population was involved in the mistake. 27 "If one person sins unintention ally, he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering. 28 And the priest shall make atonement before the LORD for the person who makes a mistake, when he sins unintention ally, to make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven. 29 You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the people of lsrael and for the stranger who sojourns among them. 30 But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is na tive or a sojourner, reviles the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from among his people. 31 Because he has despised the word of the LORD and has broken his commandment, that person shall be utterly cut off; his in iquity shall be on him:' A Sa bbathbreaker Executed
32 While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 And those who found him gather ing sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation. 34 They put him in custody, because it had not been made clear what should be done to him. 35 And the LORD said to Moses, "The man shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp:' 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, as the LORD commanded Moses.

the tent of meeting. And behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. 43 And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting, 44 and the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 45 "Get away from the midst of this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment." And they fell on their faces. 46 And Moses said to Aaron, "Take your censer, and put fire on it from off the altar and lay incense on it and carry it quickly to the congregation and make atone ment for them, for wrath has gone out from the LORD; the plague has begun." 47 So Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the midst of the assembly. And behold, the plague had already begun among the people. And he put on the incense and made atone ment for the people. 48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped. 49 Now those who died in the plague were 1 4,700, besides those who died in the affair of Korab. 50 And Aaron returned to Mo ses at the entrance of the tent of meet ing, when the plague was stopped.

Aaron's Staff B uds 7
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Speak to the people of Israel, and get from them staffs, one for each fathers' house, from all their chiefs according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. Write each man's name on his staff, 3 and write Aaron's name on the staff of Levi. For there shall be one staff for the head of each fathers' house. 4 Then you shall de posit them in the tent of meeting be fore the testimony, where I meet with you. 5 And the staff of the man whom I choose shall sprout. Thus I will make to cease from me the grumblings of I Ch 1 7 : 1 6 in Hebrew

NUMBERS 1 7:2 1 [6] - 1 8:2 t h e people o f Israel, which they grum ble against you:' 6 Moses spoke to the people of Israel. And all their chiefs gave him staffs, one for each chief, according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. And the staff of Aaron was among their staffs. 7 And Moses deposited the staffs before the LORD in the tent of the testimony. s On the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony, and behold, the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds. 9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs from before the LORD to all the people of Israel. And they looked, and each man took his staff. 10 And the LORD said to Moses, "Put back the staff of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebels, that you may make an end of their grumblings against me, lest they die:' 11 Thus did Moses; as the LORD commanded him, so he did. 12 And the people of Israel said to Moses, "Behold, we perish, we are un done, we are all undone. 13 Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tabernacle of the LORD, shall die. Are we all to perish?"

They are a gift to you, given to the LORD, to do the service of the tent of meeting. 7 And you and your sons with you shall guard your priesthood for all that concerns the altar and that is within the veil; and you shall serve. I give your priesthood as a gift, 1 and any outsider who comes near shall be put to death:' s Then the LORD spoke to Aaron, "Behold, I have given you charge of the contributions made to me, all the consecrated things of the people of Israel. I have given them to you as a portion and to your sons as a per petual due. 9 This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every offering of theirs, every grain offering of theirs and every sin offering of theirs and every guilt of fering of theirs, which they render to me, shall be most holy to you and to your sons. 10 rn a most holy place shall you eat it. Every male may eat it; it is holy to you. 1 1 This also is yours: the contribution of their gift, all the wave offerings of the people oflsrael. I have given them to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpet ual due. Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. 12 All the best of the 1

Everyone who is clean in your house may eat it. 14 Every de voted thing in Israel shall be yours. 1s Everything that opens the womb of all flesh, whether man or beast, which they offer to the LORD, shall be yours. Nevertheless, the firstborn of man you shall redeem, and the firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem. 16 And their redemption price (at a month old you shall redeem them) you shall fix at five shekels7 in silver, according to the shekel of the sanctu ary, which is twenty gerahs. 1 7 But the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar and shall burn their fat as a food of fering, with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. is But their flesh shall be yours, as the breast that is waved and as the right thigh are yours. 1 9 All the holy contributions that the people of Is rael present to the LORD I give to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual due. It is a cov enant of salt forever before the LORD for you and for your offspring with you." 20 And the LORD said to Aaron, "You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion among them. I am your por tion and your inheritance among the people of Israel. 21 "To the Levites I have given ev ery tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service that they I A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 1 1 grams

It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations, and among the people of Israel they shall have no inheritance. 24 For the tithe of the people of Israel, which they pre sent as a contribution to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheri tance. Therefore I have said of them that they shall have no inheritance among the people of Israel." 2s And the LORD spoke to Mo ses, saying, 26 "Moreover, you shall speak and say to the Levites, 'When you take from the people of Israel the tithe that I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall present a contribution from it to the LORD, a tithe of the tithe. 27 And your contribution shall be counted to you as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the winepress. 2sso you shall also pre sent a contribution to the LORD from all your tithes, which you receive from the people of Israel. And from it you shall give the LORD's contri bution to Aaron the priest. 29 Out of all the gifts to you, you shall present every contribution due to the LORD; from each its best part is to be dedi cated.' 30 Therefore you shall say to them, 'When you have offered from it the best of it, then the rest shall be counted to the Levites as produce of the threshing floor, and as produce of the winepress. J I And you may eat it in any place, you and your households, for it is your reward in return for your service in the tent of meeting. 32 And you shall bear no sin by reason of it,

But if he does not cleanse himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not become clean. 1 3 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of anyone who has died, and does not cleanse himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD, and that person shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not thrown on him, he shall be unclean. His uncleanness is still on him. 14 " This is the law when someone dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent and everyone who is in the tent shall be unclean seven days 1 5 And every open vessel that has no cover fastened on it is unclean. 1 6 Whoever in the open field touches someone who was killed with a sword or who died naturally, or touches a human bone or a grave, shall be un clean seven days. I 7 For the unclean they shall take some ashes of the burnt sin offering, and fresh 1 water shall be added in a vessel. 1 8 Then a clean person shall take hyssop and dip it in the water and sprinkle it on the tent and on all the furnishings and on the persons who were there and on whoever touched the bone, or the slain or the dead or the grave. 19 And the clean person shall sprinkle it on the unclean o n the third day and on the seventh day.

there was no water for the congregation. And they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. 3 And the peo ple quarreled with Moses and said, "Would that we had perished when our brothers perished before the LORD ! 4 Why have you brought the assembly of the LORD into this wil derness, that we should die here, both we and our cattle? s And why have you made us come up out ofEgypt to bring us to this evil place? It is no place for grain or figs or vines or pomegran ates, and there is no water to drink." 6 Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the entrance of the tent of meeting and fell on their faces. And the glory of the LORD appeared to them, 7 and the Lo RD spoke to Moses, saying, s "Take the staff, and assemble the congrega tion, you and Aaron your brother, and tell the rock before their eyes to yield

NUM BERS 2 1 : 1 2 -25 opposite Moab, toward the sunrise. 1 2 From there they set out and camped in the Valley of Zered. 1 3 From there they set out and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wil derness that extends from the border of the Amorites, for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites. 14 Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD,
is
" Waheb in Suphah, and the valleys of the Arn on, and the slope of the valleys that extends to the seat of Ar, and leans to the border of Moab:' 1 6 And
from there they continued to Beer; 1 that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, "Gather the peo ple together, so that I may give them water:' 1 7 Then Israel sang this song:
1s
" Spring up, 0 well!-Sing to it!t h e well that t h e princes made, that the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter and with their staffs:'
And from the wilderness they went on to Mattanah, 1 9 and from Matta nah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth, 20 and from Bamoth to the valley lying in the region of Moab by the top of Pisgah that looks down on the desert.2 King Sihon Defeated
21 Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying, 22 "Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into field or vine yard. We will not drink the water of a well. We will go by the King's High way until we have passed through your territory:' 2 3 But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory. He gathered all his people together and went out against Israel to the wilderness and came to Jahaz and fought against Israel. 24 And Israel de feated him with the edge of the sword and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as to the Ammonites, for the border of the Ammonites was strong. 2s And Israel took all these cities, and Israel settled 1 Beer means well 2 0r feshirnon

Now therefore, if it is evil in your sight, I will turn back:' 35 And the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but speak only the word that I tell you:' So Balaam went on with the princes of Balak. 36 When Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to meet him at the city of Moab, on the border formed by the Arn on, at the extrem ity of the border. 37 And Balak said to Balaam, "Did I not send to you to call you? Why did you not come to me? Am I not able to honor you?" JS Balaam said to Balak, "Behold, I have come to you! Have I now any power of my own to speak anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that must I speak:' 39 Then Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kiriath-huzoth. 40 And Balak sacri ficed oxen and sheep, and sent for Balaam and for the princes who were with him. 41 And in the morning Balak took Balaam and brought him up to Bamoth-baal, and from there he saw a fraction of the people.

Salaa m's F i rst Oracle
And Balaam said to Balak, "Build for me here seven al tars, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams:' 2 Balak did as Balaam had said. And Balak and Balaam offered on each altar a bull and a ram. 3 And Balaam said to Balak, "Stand beside your burnt offering, and I will go. Perhaps the LORD will come to meet me, and whatever he shows me I will tell you:' And he went to a bare height, 4 and God met Balaam.
378
NUMBERS 23:5- 1 6 And Balaam said to him, " I have ar ranged the seven altars and I have of fered on each altar a bull and a ram." s And the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak:' 6 And he re turned to him, and behold, he and all the princes of Moab were standing be side his burnt offering. 7 And Balaam took up his discourse and said,
10
" From Aram Balak has brought me, the king of Moab from the eastern mountains: ' C ome, curse Jacob for me, and come, denounce Israel!' How can I curse whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce whom the LORD has not denounced? For from the top of the crags I see him, from the hills I behold him; behold, a people dwelling alone, and not counting itself among the nations! Who can count the dust of Jacob or number the fourth part ' of Israel? Let me die the death of the upright, and let my end be like his!" 1 1 And Balak said to
Balaam, "What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have done nothing but bless them:' 1 2 And he answered and said, "Must I not take care to speak what the LORD puts in my mouth?" Salaam's Second Oracle
1 3 And Balak said to him, "Please come with me to another place, from which you may see them. You shall see only a fraction of them and shall not see them all. Then curse them for me from there:' 14 And he took him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars and of fered a bull and a ram on each altar. i s Balaam said to Balak, "Stand here beside your burnt offering, while I meet the LORD over there." 1 6 And the LORD met Balaam and put a word in his mouth and said, "Return to Balak, 1

50 And the LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho, saying, 51 "Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan, 52 then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from be fore you and destroy all their figured stones and destroy all their metal im ages and demolish all their high plac es. 53 And you shall take possession of the land and settle in it, for I have given the land to you to possess it. 54 You shall inherit the land by lot ac cording to your clans. To a large tribe you shall give a large inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a small inheritance. Wherever the lot falls for anyone, that shall be his. Ac cording to the tribes of your fathers you shall inherit. 55 But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land

This shall be your western border. 7 "This shall be your northern border: from the Great Sea you shall draw a line to Mount Hor. s From Mount Hor you shall draw a line to Lebo-hamath, and the limit of the border shall be at Zedad. 9 Then the border shall extend to Ziphron, and its limit shall be at Hazar-enan.

The LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jor dan at Jericho, saying, 2 "Command the people of Israel to give to the Le vites some of the inheritance of their possession as cities for them to dwell in. And you shall give to the Levites pasturelands around the cities. 3 The cities shall be theirs to dwell in, and their pasturelands shall be for their cattle and for their livestock and for all their beasts. 4 The pasturelands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city outward a thousand cubits 1 all around. s And you shall measure, out side the city, on the east side two thou sand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits, the city be ing in the middle. This shall belong to them as pastureland for their cities. 6 "The cities that you give to the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge, where you shall permit the manslayer to flee, and in addition to them you shall give forty-two cities. 7 All the cit ies that you give to the Levites shall be forty-eight, with their pasture lands. s And as for the cities that you shall give from the possession of the people of Israel, from the larger tribes you shall take many, and from the smaller tribes you shall take few; each, in proportion to the inheritance that it inherits, shall give of its cities to the Levites:'

Marriage of Female Heirs
The heads of the fathers' houses of the clan of the people of Gilead the son of Machir, son of Manasseh, from the clans of the people of Joseph, came near and spoke before Moses and before the chiefs, the heads of the fathers' houses of the people of Israel. 2 They said, "The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for inheritance by lot to the people of Israel, and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters. 3 But if they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the people of Israel, then their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. So it will be taken away from the lot of our inheritance. 4 And when the jubilee of the people of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, and their inheritance will be taken from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers:' s And Moses commanded the peo ple of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, "The tribe of the people of Joseph is right. 6This is what the LORD commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad: 'Let them marry whom they think best, only they shall marry within the clan of the tribe of their father. 7 The in heritance of the people of Israel shall not be transferred from one tribe to another, for every one of the people of Israel shall hold on to the inheri tance of the tribe of his fathers. s And every daughter who possesses an in heritance in any tribe of the people of Israel shall be wife to one of the clan of the tribe of her father, so that every
414
NUMBERS 36:9- 1 3 one of the people of Israel may possess the inheritance of his fathers. 9 So no inheritance shall be transferred from one tribe to another, for each of the tribes of the people of Israel shall hold on to its own inheritance.' " JO The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses, 1 1 for Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to sons of their father's brothers. 12 They were married into the clans of the people of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheri tance remained in the tribe of their father's clan. 13 These are the commandments and the rules that the LORD com manded through Moses to the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.

These are the words that Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jor dan in the wilderness, in the Arabah opposite Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Diza hab. 2 It is eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea. 3 In the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses spoke to the people oflsrael ac cording to all that the LORD had given him in commandment to them, 4 after he had defeated Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei. s Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses undertook to explain this law, saying, 6 "The LORD our God said to us in Horeb, 'You have stayed long enough at this mountain. ? Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neigh bors in the Arabah, in the hill country and in the lowland and in the Negeb and by the seacoast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. s See, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession of the land that the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their offspring after them.' Leaders Appointed
9 ''At that time I said to you, 'I am not able to bear you by myself. IOThe LORD your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are today as numer ous as the stars of heaven. 11 May the LORD, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are and bless you, as he has promised

DEUTERONOMY 1 : 1 2-22 you! 12 How can I bear by myself the weight and burden of you and your strife? 13 Choose for your tribes wise, understanding, and experienced men, and I will appoint them as your heads: 14 And you answered me, 'The thing that you have spoken is good for us to do: i s So I took the heads of your tribes, wise and experienced men, and set them as heads over you, com manders of thousands, commanders of hundreds, commanders of fif ties, commanders of tens, and offi cers, throughout your tribes. 16 And I charged your judges at that time, 'Hear the cases between your broth ers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother or the alien who is with him. 1 7 You shall not be partial in judgment. You shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be intimidated by anyone, for the judg ment is God's. And the case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it: 18 And I com manded you at that time all the things that you should do. Isra el's Refusal to Enter the lan d
19 "Then we set out from Horeb and went through all that great and terrify ing wilderness that you saw, on the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us. And we came to Kadesh-barnea. 20 And I said to you, 'You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving us. 21 See, the LORD your God has set the land before you. Go up, take posses sion, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has told you. Do not fear or be dismayed: 22 Then all of you came near me and said, 'Let us send men

"And now, 0 Israel, listen to the statutes and the rules 1 that I am teaching you, and do them, that you may live, and go in and take posses sion of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you. 2 You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your God that I command you. 3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did at Baal-peor, for the LORD your God destroyed from among you all the men who followed the Baal of Peor. 4 But you who held fast to the LORD your God are all alive today. s See, I have taught you statutes and rules, as the LORD my God com manded me, that you should do them in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. 6 Keep them and do them, for that will be your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understand ing people.' 7 For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the LORD our God is to us, whenever we call upon him? s And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today? 9 "Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life.

You heard the sound of words, but saw no form; there was only a voice. 13 And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments, 1 and he wrote them on two tablets of stone. 14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and rules, that you might do them in the land that you are going over to possess. Idolatry Forbidden
JS "Therefore watch yourselves very carefully. Since you saw no form on the day that the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire, 16 beware lest you act corruptly by making a carved image for yourselves, in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, 17 the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, is the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth. 19 And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the LORD your God has allotted to all the peoples under

But you shall go over and take possession of that good land. 23 Take care, lest you forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make a carved image, the form of anything that the LORD your God has forbid den you. 24 For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. 2s "When you father children and children's children, and have grown old in the land, if you act corruptly by making a carved image in the form of anything, and by doing what is evil in the sight of the LORD your God, so as to provoke him to anger, 26 1 call heav en and earth to witness against you to day, that you will soon utterly perish from the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess. You will not live long in it, but will be utterly de stroyed. 27 And the LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the na tions where the LORD will drive you. 2 8 And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. 29 But from there you will seek the LORD your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your

your daughter or your male servant or your female servant, or your ox or your donkey or any of your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 1 5 You shall remember that you were a slave 1 in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand and an out stretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day. 1 6 " ' Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God com manded you, that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. 1 7 " 'You shall not murder.2 18 " 'And you shall not commit adul tery. 19 " 'And you shall not steal. 20 " 'And you shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. 2 1 " 'And you shall not covet your neighbor's wife. And you shall not desire your neighbor's house, his field, or his male servant, or his fe male servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's: 22 "These words the LORD spoke to all your assembly at the mountain out of the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice; and he added no more. And he wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me. 23 And as soon as you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders. 24 And you said, 'Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire. This day we have seen God speak with man, and man still live. 25 Now therefore why should we die? For 1 Or servant 2Ihe Hebrew word also covers causing human death through carelessness or negligence
DEUTERONOMY 5:26-6: 1 this great fire will consume us. I f we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, we shall die. 26 For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of fire as we have, and has still lived? 2i Go near and hear all that the LORD our God will say, and speak to us all that the LORD our God will speak to you, and we will hear and do it.' zs ''And the LORD heard your words, when you spoke to me. And the LORD said to me, 'I have heard the words of this people, which they have spoken to you. They are right in all that they have spoken. 29 Oh that they had such a heart as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their descendants 1 forever! 3 0 Go and say to them, "Return to your tents." 3 1 But you, stand here by me, and I will tell you the whole command ment and the statutes and the rules that you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land that I am giving them to possess.' 32 You shall be careful therefore to do as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 33 You shall walk in all the way that the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may go well with you, and that you may live long in the land that you shall possess.

God Commissions Joshua After the death of Moses the ser vant of the LORD, the LORD said
to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' as
sistant, 2 "Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over this Jor dan, you and all this people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. 3 Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, just as I promised
to Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the
Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory. s No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you. 6 Be strong and coura

and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good suc
cess I wherever you go. BThis Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you
will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and cou rageous. Do not be frightened, and do
not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go:'

Ephraim by their clans was as follows: the boundary of their inheritance on Upper Beth-horon, 6 and the bound ary goes from there to the sea. On the north is Michmethath. Then on the east the boundary turns around toward Taanath-shiloh
and
passes
Ataroth and to Naarah, and touches Jericho, ending at the Jordan. s From Tappuah the boundary goes west ward to the brook Kanah and ends at the sea. Such is the inheritance of their clans, 9 together with the towns
that were set apart for the people of Ephraim within the inheritance of the Manassites, all those towns with
their villages. 10 However, they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites have lived in the midst of Ephraim to this day but
have been made to do forced labor.

JOSHUA 1 7:2- 1 0 Machir the firstborn o f Manasseh, the father of Gilead, were allotted Gilead and Bashan, because he was a man of war. 2 And allotments were made to the rest of the people of Manasseh by their clans, Abiezer, Helek, As riel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These were the male descendants of Manasseh the son of Joseph, by their clans. 3 Now Zelophehad the son of He pher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, and these are the names of his
daughters:
Mahlah,
Noah,
Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. 4 They approached Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun and the lead ers and said, "The LoRD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance along with our brothers." So according to the mouth of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brothers
of their father. s Thus there fell to Manasseh ten portions, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan, 6 be
cause the daughters of Manasseh re ceived an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was allotted to the rest of the people of Manasseh. ?The territory of Manasseh reached from Asher to Michmethath, which is east of Shechem. Then the boundary goes along southward to the inhabi tants ofEn-tappuah. B The land ofTap puah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah on the boundary of Manasseh belonged to the people of Ephraim. 9 Then the boundary went down to the brook Kanah. These cit ies, to the south of the brook, among the cities of Manasseh, belong to Ephraim.
Then
the
boundary
of
Manasseh goes on the north side of the brook and ends at the sea, 10 the
land to the south being Ephraim's and

Midian Oppresses Israel
The people of Israel did what was
evil in the sight of the LORD, and
the LORD gave them into the hand of Midian seven years. 2 And the hand of Midian overpowered Israel, and be
cause of Midian the people of Israel
made for themselves the dens that are in the mountains and the caves and
the strongholds. 3 For whenever the Is
raelites planted crops, the Midianites
and the Amalekites and the people of
the East would come up against them.

him, "Where is your mouth now, you should serve him?' Are not these the people whom you despised? Go out
now and fight with them:' 39 And Gaal
went out at the head of the leaders of
Shechem and fought with Abimelech.
40 And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him. And many fell

his relatives, so that they could not dwell at Shechem.
42 On the following day, the people
went out into the field, and Abimelech was told. 43 He took his people and di
set an ambush in the fields. And he
looked and saw the people coming and killed them. 44 Abimelech and the company that was with him rushed forward and stood at the entrance

After Abimelech there arose
to save Israel Tola the son of
Puah, son of Dodo, a man of Issa
char, and he lived at Shamir in the hill Israel twenty-three years. Then he
died and was buried at Shamir.
3 After him arose Jair the Gileadite,
who judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 And he had thirty sons who rode on
thirty donkeys, and they had thirty
cities, called Havvoth-jair to this day,
which are in the land of Gilead. s And Jair died and was buried in Kamon.

what was evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals and the
Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods
of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods
of the Ammonites, and the gods of the
Philistines.
And they forsook
the LORD and did not serve him. 7 So
the anger of the LORD was kindled
against Israel, and he sold them into
the hand of the Philistines and into
the hand of the Ammonites, s and they
crushed and oppressed the people of
Israel that year. For eighteen years

came to the hill country of Ephraim,
to the house of Micah, and lodged
there. 3 When they were by the house
of Micah, they recognized the voice
of the young Levite. And they turned
aside and said to him, "Who brought
you here? What are you doing in this
place? What is your business here?"
4 And he said to them, "This is how
Micah dealt with me: he has hired me,
and I have become his priest:' s And
they said to him, "Inquire of God,

Then, if there is no one to save us, we will give our selves up to you:' 4 When the mes sengers came to Gibeah of Saul, they reported the matter in the ears of the people, and all the people wept aloud.

So they told him the news of the men of Jabesh. 6 And the Spirit of God rushed upon Saul when he heard these words, and his anger was greatly kindled. 7 He took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hand of the messengers,
saying, "Whoever

Did they not sing to one another of him in dances, ' Saul has struck down his thousands, and David his ten thousands'?" 1 2 And David took these words to

And David's servants came into the land of the Ammonites. 3 But the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord, "Do you think, because David has sent comforters to you, that he is honoring your father? Has not David sent his servants to you to search the city and to spy it out and to overthrow it?" 4 So Hanun 1

But Mephibosheth your master's grandson shall always eat at my table:' Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants. 1 1 Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so will your servant do:' So Mephibosheth ate at David's l table, like one of the king's sons. 1 2 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all who lived in Ziba's house be came Mephibosheth's servants. 1 3 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate always at the king's table. Now he was lame in both his feet.

And they set down the ark of God until the people had all passed out of the city. 2s Then the king said to Zadok, "Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me back and let me see both it and his dwelling place. 26 But if he says, 'I have no pleasure in you; behold, here I am, let him do to me what seems good to him:' 2 7 The king also said to Zadok the priest, "Are you not a seer? Go back7 to the city in peace, with your two sons, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. 2s See, I will wait at the fords of the wilder ness until word comes from you to inform me:' 29 So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusa lem, and they remained there. 30 But David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went, barefoot and with his head covered. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up, weeping as they went. 3 1 And it was told David, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Ab salom." And David said, "O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness:' 3 2 While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head. 33 David said to him, "If

2 SAMUEL 1 5:34- 1 6: 5 you go o n with me, you will b e a bur den to me. 34 But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, 'I will be your servant, 0 king; as I have been your father's servant in time past, so now I will be your servant; then you will de feat for me the counsel of Ahithophel. 35 Are not Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? So whatever you hear from the king's house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 36 Behold, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son, and by them you shall send to me everything you hear." 37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.

When David had passed a lit tle beyond the summit, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of donkeys sad dled, bearing two hundred loaves of bread, a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred of summer fruits, and a skin of wine. 2 And the king said to Ziba, "Why have you brought these?" Ziba answered, "The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for those who faint in the wilderness to drink." 3 And the king said, "And where is your master's son?" Ziba said to the king, "Behold, he remains in Jerusalem, for he said, 'Today the house of Israel will give me back the kingdom of my father: " 4 Then the king said to Ziba, "Behold, all that belonged to Mephibosheth is now yours:' And Ziba said, "I pay homage; let me ever find favor in your sight, my lord the king:' S h imei Curses David

For you have made it clear to day that commanders and servants are nothing to you, for today I know that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead today, then you would be pleased. 7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak kindly to your servants, for I swear by the LORD, if you do not go, not a man will stay with you this night, and this will be worse for you than all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now:' B Then the king arose and took his seat in the gate. And the people were all told, "Behold, the king is sitting in the gate:' And all the people came before the king. David Returns to Jerusalem
Now Israel had fled every man to his own home. 9 And all the people were arguing throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "The king delivered us from the hand of our enemies and saved us from the hand of the Philis tines, and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom. 1 0 But Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why do you say nothing about bringing the king back?" 11 And King David sent this mes sage to Zadok and Abiathar the priests: "Say to the elders of Judah, 'Why should you be the last to bring the king back to his house, when the word of all Israel has come to the king? 1 1 2 You are my brothers; you are my bone and my flesh. Why then should you be the last to bring back the king?' 1 3 And say to Amasa, 'Are you not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if you are not commander of my army from now on in place of Joab: " 14 And he swayed the heart of all the men of 1 Septuagint; Hebrew to the king, to his house

The God of Israel has spoken; the Rock of Israel has said to me: When one rules justly over men, ruling in the fear of God, he dawns on them like the morning light, like the sun shining forth on a cloudless morning, like rain4 that makes grass to sprout from the earth. 5
" For does not my house stand so with God? For he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and secure. For will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire? But worthless mens are all like thorns that are thrown away, for they cannot be taken with the hand;

2s And Judah and
Israel lived in safety,
from Dan even to Beersheba, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, all the days of Solomon. 26 Solo
mon also had 40,0001 stalls of horses for his chariots, and 12,000 horse
men. 21 And those officers supplied
1'1::11' lT T - :
nothing be lacking. 2 s Barley also and straw for the horses and swift steeds they brought to the place where it was required, each according to his duty. 29 And
God gave Solomon wisdom
and understanding beyond measure, and breadth of mind like the sand on the seashore, 30 so that Solomon's wis
dom surpassed the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt. 31 For he was wiser than all other men, wiser than Ethan the Ezra hite, and Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol, and his fame was in all the surrounding nations. 32 He
also spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his
songs were 1 ,005. 33 He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of the wall.
He spoke also of beasts, and of birds,
and of reptiles, and of fish. 34 And people of all nations came to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and from all the kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.

Solomon's Bened iction 54
Now as Solomon finished of
fering all this prayer and plea to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, where he had knelt with hands outstretched toward heaven. And he stood and blessed all the
assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying, 56 "Blessed be the LORD who has given rest to his people Israel, ac cording to all that he promised. Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant. S7 The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers. May
walk in all his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his rules, which he commanded our fa thers. 59 Let these words of mine, with which I have pleaded before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, and may he maintain the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as each day requires,
60 that
all the peoples of the earth may
know that the LORD is God; there is no other. 6 1 Let your heart therefore

burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat pieces of the peace offer ings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to re ceive the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat pieces of the peace offerings. 65 So Solomon held the feast at that assembly, from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days. 1 66 On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king and went to their homes joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had shown to David his servant and to Israel his people.

" 1 0 And the young men who had grown up with him said to him, "Thus shall you speak to this people who said to you, 'Your father made our yoke heavy, but you lighten it for us: thus shall you say to them,

2s So
the king took counsel and made
two calves of gold. And he said to the people, "You have gone up to Jerusa lem long enough. Behold your gods,
0 Israel, who brought you up out of
the land of Egypt:' 29 And he set one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan. 30 Then this thing became a sin, for the people went as far as Dan to be
before one. ' 31 He also made temples on high places and appointed priests
from among all the people, who were not of the Levites. 32 And Jeroboam appointed a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month like the feast that
ficing to the calves that he made. And he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places that he had made. 33 He
went up to the altar that he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, in the month that he had devised from his own heart. And he instituted a feast for the people of Israel and went up to the altar to make offerings.

Asa Reigns In Judah 9 Jn the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah, 1 0 and he reigned forty
one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. 1 1 And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as David his father had done. 12 He put away the male cult prostitutes out of the land and removed all the idols that his fa thers had made. 13 He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen mother because she had made an abominable image for Asherah. And Asa cut down her image and burned

less, the heart of Asa was wholly true to the LORD all his days. 15 And he brought into the house of the LORD the sacred gifts of his father and his own sacred gifts, silver, and gold, and vessels. 16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days. 1 7 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and built Ramah, that he might permit no one to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. 1 8 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD and the treasures of the king's house and gave them into the hands of his servants. And King Asa sent them to Ben-hadad the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who lived in Damascus, saying, 1 9 "Let there be a covenant/ between me and you, as there was between my father and your father.

When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab
said to him, "Is it you, you troubler of Israel?" 1 8 And he answered, "I have not troubled Israel, but you have, and abandoned the commandments of the
LORD and followed the Baals. 19 Now therefore send and gather all Israel to me at Mount Carmel, and the 450 prophets of Baal and the 400 prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel's table:'
The Prophets of Baal Defeated So Ahab sent to all the people
of Israel and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel. 2 1 And Elijah came near to all the people and said, "How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him:' And the people did
not answer him a word. 22 Then Elijah
said to the people, "I, even I only, am left a prophet of the LORD, but Baal's
prophets are 450 men. 23 Let two bulls

Elijah said to the prophets o f
Baal, "Choose for yourselves o n e bull and prepare it first, for you are many, and call upon the name of your god,

on until the time of the offering of the oblation, but there was no voice. No one answered; no one paid attention. 30
Then Elijah said to all the peo

And the LORD said, 'These have no master; let each return to his home in peace: " 18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but
evil?" 19 And Micaiah said, "There

from the land he exterminated the remnant of the male cult prostitutes who remained in the days of his fa ther Asa. 47
There was no king in Edom; a
deputy was king. 48 Jehoshaphat made
ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they did not go, for the ships were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
49 Then
Ahaziah the son of Ahab said
to Jehoshaphat, "Let my servants go with your servants in the ships;' but
Jehoshaphat was not willing. 50 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
Ahaziah Reigns i n I srael 5 1 Ahaziah the
son of Ahab began to
reign over Israel in Samaria in the sev enteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel. 52 He did what was evil in the
sight of the LORD and walked in the way of his father and in the way of his mother and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to
sin. 53 He served Baal and worshiped
him and provoked the LORD, the God oflsrael, to anger in every way that his father had done.

2 KINGS 3:26-4:6 covered. They stopped every spring of water and felled all the good trees, till only its stones were left in Kir hareseth, and the slingers surrounded and attacked it. 26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was going against him, he took with him 700 swordsmen to break through, oppo site the king of Edom, but they could not. 27Then he took his oldest son who was to reign in his place and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall.

Elisha and the Widow's Oil
of the prophets cried to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the LORD, but the creditor has come to take my two children to be his slaves." 2 And Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me; what have you in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil:' 3 Then he said, "Go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not too few. 4 Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside:' s So she went from him and shut the door be hind herself and her sons. And as she poured they brought the vessels to her. 6 When the vessels were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another vessel:' And he said to her, "There is not an other." Then the oil stopped flowing.

2 KINGS 5: 1 6-23 Gehazi's G reed and Punishment
IS Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and he came and stood before him. And he said, "Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel; so accept now a present from your ser vant." 16 But he said, "As the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none." And he urged him to take it, but he refused. 17 Then Naa man said, "If not, please let there be given to your servant two mule loads of earth, for from now on your ser vant will not offer burnt offering or sacrifice to any god but the LORD. I S In this matter may the LORD pardon your servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, leaning on my arm, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, when I bow myself in the house of Rim mon, the LORD pardon your servant in this matter:' 19 He said to him, "Go in peace:' But when Naaman had gone from him a short distance, 20 Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, "See, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not accepting from his hand what he brought. As the LORD lives, I will run after him and get something from him:' 21 So Gehazi followed Naaman. And when Naaman saw someone running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him and said, "Is all well?" 22 And he said, "All is well. My master has sent me to say, 'There have just now come to me from the hill coun try of Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing: " 23 And Naaman said, "Be pleased to accept two talents:' And he urged him and tied up two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes

Ben-hadad's Siege of Samaria
24 Afterward Ben-hadad king of Syria mustered his entire army and went up and besieged Samaria. 2s And there was a great famine in Samaria, as they besieged it, until a donkey's head was sold for eighty shekels of silver, and the fourth part of a kab 1 of dove's dung for five shekels of sil ver. 26 Now as the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried out to him, saying, "Help, my lord, 0 king!" 27 And he said, "If the LORD will not help you, how shall I help you? From the threshing floor, or from the winepress?" 28 And the king asked her, "What is your trouble?" She answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son 1 A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 1 1 grams; a kab was about 1 quart or 1 liter

them with blindness i n accordance with the prayer of Elisha. 19 And Eli sha said to them, "This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek:' And he led them to Samaria. 2 0 As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha said, "O LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see:' So the LORD opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria. 21 As soon as the king of Is rael saw them, he said to Elisha, "My father, shall I strike them down? Shall I strike them down?" 22 He answered, "You shall not strike them down. Would you strike down those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master." 23 So he prepared for them a great feast, and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. And the Syrians did not come again on raids into the land of Israel.

But she has hidden her son." 30 When the king heard the words of the woman, he tore his clothes-now he was passing by on the wall-and the people looked, and behold, he had sackcloth beneath on his body3 J and he said, "May God do so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders today." 32 Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. Now the king had dispatched a man from his presence, but before the messenger arrived Elisha said to the elders, "Do you see how this murderer has sent to take off my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door and hold the door fast against him. Is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?" 33 And while he was still speaking with them, the messen ger came down to him and said, "This trouble is from the LORD! Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"

His mother's name was Athaliah; she was a granddaughter of Omri king of Israel. 27 He also walked in the way of the house of Ahab and did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, as the house of Ahab had done, for he was son-in-law to the house of Ahab. 28 He went with Joram the son of Ahab to make war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth-gilead, and the Syrians wounded Joram. 29 And King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria.

Jehu Anointed King of Israel
and said to him, "Tie up your gar ments, and take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead. 2 And when you arrive, look there for Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi. And go in and have him rise from among his fellows, and lead him to an inner chamber. 3 Then take the flask of oil and pour it on his head and say, 'Thus says the LORD, I anoint you king over Israel: Then open the door and flee; do not linger:' 4 So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead. s And when he came, behold, the com manders of the army were in council. And he said, "I have a word for you, 0 commander:' And Jehu said, "To which of us all?" And he said, "To you, 0 commander:' 6 So he arose and went into the house. And the young man poured the oil on his head, say ing to him, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, I anoint you king over the people of the LORD, over Israel. 7 And you shall strike down the house of Ahab your master, so that I may avenge on Jezebel the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD. s For the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, bond or free, in Israel. 9 And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah. 10 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel, and

14Thus Jehu the son ofJehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram with all Israel had been on guard at Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Syria, i s but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that the Syr ians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) So Jehu said, "If this is your decision, then let no one slip out of the city to go and tell the news in JezreeJ:' 16 Then Jehu mounted his chariot and went to Jez reel, for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to visit Joram. 17Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he saw the company of Jehu as he came and said, "I see a company:' And Joram said, "Take a horseman and send to meet them, and let him say, 'Is it peace?' " 1 s So a man on horseback went to meet him and said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace?' " And Jehu said, "What do you have to do with peace? Turn around and ride behind me:' And the watchman reported, saying, "The messenger reached them, but he is not coming back:' 19 Then he sent out a 1

And whoever approaches the ranks is to be put to death. Be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in." 9 The captains did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they each brought his men who were to go off duty on the Sabbath, with those who were to come on duty on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest. 10 And the priest gave to the captains the spears and shields that had been King David's, which were in the house of the LORD. 11 And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and the house on behalf of the king. 1 2 Then he brought out the king's son and put the crown on him and gave him the testimony. And they proclaimed him king and anointed him, and they clapped their hands and said, "Long live the king!" 13 When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she went into the house of the LORD to the people. 14 And when she looked, there was the king standing by the pil lar, according to the custom, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king, and all the people of the land 1 The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain

He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin. 2s And Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him with fifty men of the people of Gilead, and struck him down in Samaria, in the citadel of the king's house with Argob and Arieh; he put him to death and reigned in his place. 26 Now the rest of the deeds of Pekahiah and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

His mother's name was Jerusha the daughter of Zadok. 34 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, ac cording to all that his father Uzziah had done. 35 Nevertheless, the high places were not removed. The people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. He built the upper gate of the house of the LORD. 36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 37 In those days the LORD began to send Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah against Judah. 38 Jotham slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.

Hoshea Reigns in Israel
king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel, and he reigned nine years. 2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him. 3 Against him came up Shalmaneser king of As syria. And Hoshea became his vassal and paid him tribute. 4 But the king of Assyria found treachery in Hoshea, for he had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria shut him up and bound him in prison. s Then the king of Assyria invaded all the land and came to Samaria, and for three years he besieged it. The Fall of Israel
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria, and he carried the Israelites away to As syria and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Exile Because of Idolatry
7 And this occurred because the people of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods s and walked in the customs of the nations whom the LORD drove out before the people of Israel, and in the customs that the kings of Israel had practiced. 9 And the people of Israel did secretly against the LORD their God things that were not right. They built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to forti fied city. IO They set up for themselves pillars and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree, 11 and there they made offerings on all the high places, as the nations did whom the LORD carried away before them.
916
2 KINGS 1 7 : 1 2-20 And they did wicked things, provok ing the LORD to anger, 12 and they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, "You shall not do this:' u Yet the LORD warned Israel and Ju dah by every prophet and every seer, saying, "Turn from your evil ways and keep my commandments and my stat utes, in accordance with all the Law that I commanded your fathers, and that I sent to you by my servants the prophets:' 1 4 But they would not listen, but were stubborn, as their fathers had been, who did not believe in the LORD their God. i s They despised his stat utes and his covenant that he made with their fathers and the warnings that he gave them. They went after false idols and became false, and they followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them. 16 And they abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made for themselves metal images of two calves; and they made an Asherah and worshiped all the host of heaven and served Baal. 17 And they burned their sons and their daughters as offerings7 and used divination and omens and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking him to anger. I S Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel and removed them out of his sight. None was left but the tribe of Judah only. 1 9 Judah also did not keep the com mandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the customs that Israel had introduced. 20 And the LORD re jected all the descendants of Israel and afflicted them and gave them into the 1

24 And the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the people of Israel. And they took possession of Samaria and lived in its cities. 2s And at the beginning of their dwelling there, they did not fear the LORD. Therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them. 26 So the king of Assyria was told, "The nations that you have car ried away and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they are killing them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land:' 2 7 Then the king of Assyria com mantled, "Send there one of the priests whom you carried away from there, and let him 1 go and dwell there and teach them the law of the god of the land:' 2s So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel and taught them how they should fear the LORD.

you shall not forget t h e covenant that I have made with you. You shall not fear other gods, 39 but you shall fear the LORD your God, and he will de liver you out of the hand of all your enemies:' 40 However, they would not listen, but they did according to their former manner. 41 So these nations feared the LORD and also served their carved images. Their children did likewise, and their children's children-as their fathers did, so they do to this day. Hezekiah Reigns in Judah
1 8 son of Elah, king of Israel,
In the third year of Hoshea
Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Ju dah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. J And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places and broke the pillars and cut down the Asherah. And he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the peo ple of Israel had made offerings to it (it was called Nehushtan). 7 s He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 6 For he held fast to the LORD. He did not depart from following him, but kept the commandments that the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; wherever he went out, he prospered. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and would not serve him. B He struck down the Philistines 1 Nehushtan sounds like the Hebrew for both bronze and serpent

2 KINGS 1 8:9- 1 7 as far as Gaza and its territory, from watchtower to fortified city. 9 In the fourth year of King Heze kiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it, 10 and at the end of three years he took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Is rael, Samaria was taken. 1 1 The king of Assyria carried the Israelites away to Assyria and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 1 2 because they did not obey the voice of the LORD their God but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the ser vant of the LORD commanded. They neither listened nor obeyed.

1 3 In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of As syria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them. 1 4 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, "I have done wrong; withdraw from me. Whatever you impose on me I will bear:' And the king of Assyria required of Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents7 of silver and thirty talents of gold. i s And Heze kiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD and from the doorposts that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent the Tartan, the Rab-saris, and the Rab shakeh with a great army from La chish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem.

" Whom have you mocked and reviled? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes to the heights? Against the Holy One of Israel! By your messengers you have mocked the Lord, and you have said, 'With my many chariots I have gone up the heights of the mountains, to the far recesses of Lebanon; I felled its tallest cedars, its choicest cypresses; I entered its farthest lodging place, its most fruitful forest. I dug wells and drank foreign waters, and I dried up with the sole of my foot all the streams of Egypt.' " Have you not heard that I determined it long ago? I planned from days of old what now I bring to pass, that you should turn fortified cities into heaps of ruins, while their inhabitants, shorn of strength, are dismayed and confounded, and have become like plants of the field and like tender grass, like grass on the housetops, blighted before it is grown. " But I know your sitting down and your going out and coming in, and your raging against me. Because you have raged against me and your complacency has come into my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth, and I will turn you back on the way by which you came. 29 ''And this shall be the sign for

you: this year eat what grows of itself, and in the second year what springs of the same. Then in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. 30 And the surviving rem nant of the house of Judah shall again take root downward and bear fruit upward. 31 For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant, and out of Mount Zion a band of survivors. The zeal of the LORD will do this. 3 2 "Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city or shoot an arrow there, or come before it with a shield or cast up a siege mound against it. 33 By the way that he came, by the same he shall return, and he shall not come into this city, declares the LORD. 34 For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David:' 35 And that night the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 in the camp of the Assyr ians. And when people arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. 36 Then Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and went home and lived at Nineveh. 37 And as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer, his sons, struck him down with the sword and escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his place.

please remember how I have walked before you in faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in your sight:' And Heze kiah wept bitterly. 4 And before Isaiah had gone out of the middle court, the word of the LORD came to him: s "Turn back, and say to Hezekiah the leader of my people, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the LORD, 6 and I will add fifteen years to your life. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city for my own sake and for my servant David's sake:' 7 And Isaiah said, "Bring a cake of figs. And let them take and lay it on the boil, that he may recover:' B And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?" 9 And Isaiah said, "This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he has promised: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?" I O And Hezekiah answered, "It is an easy thing for the shadow to lengthen ten steps. Rather let the shadow go back ten steps:' 11 And Isa iah the prophet called to the LORD, and he brought the shadow back ten steps, by which it had gone down on the steps of Ahaz.

2 KINGS 20: 1 4-2 1 :2 gold, the spices, the precious oil, his armory, all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his house or in all his realm that Hezekiah did not show them. 1 4 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, "What did these men say? And from where did they come to you?" And Hezekiah said, "They have come from a far country, from Babylon:' is He said, "What have they seen in your house?" And Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house; there is nothing in my storehouses that I did not show them:' 1 6 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the LORD: 17 Be hold, the days are coming, when all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have stored up till this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Noth ing shall be left, says the LORD. 1 8 And some of your own sons, who shall be born to you, shall be taken away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon:' 1 9 Then Heze kiah said to Isaiah, "The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good:' For he thought, "Why not, if there will be peace and security in my days?" 20 The rest of the deeds of Hezekiah and all his might and how he made the pool and the conduit and brought water into the city, are they not writ ten in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 2 1 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

2 KINGS 22: 1 7-23:3 read. 1 7 Because they have forsaken me and have made offerings to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath will be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched. is But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Regard ing the words that you have heard, 19 because your heart was penitent, and you humbled yourself before the LORD, when you heard how I spoke against this place and against its in habitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and you have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you, declares the LORD. 20 Therefore, behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes shall not see all the disaster that I will bring u p o n t h i s place: " And they brought back \,·ord to the king.

He also burned the Ashe rah. 16 And as Josiah turned, he saw the tombs there on the mount. And he sent and took the bones out of the tombs and burned them on the altar and defiled it, according to the word of the LORD that the man of God proclaimed, who had predicted these things. I7 Then he said, "What is that monument that I see?" And the men of the city told him, "It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Ju dah and predicted4 these things that

So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria. 19 And Josiah removed all the shrines also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which kings of Israel had made, provoking the LORD to anger. He did to them according to all that he had done at Bethel. 20 And he sacrificed all the priests of the high places who were there, on the altars, and burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem. Josiah Restores the Passover
21 And the king commanded all the people, "Keep the Passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant:' 22 For no such Passover had been kept since the days of the judges who judged Israel, or during all the days of the kings of Israel or of the kings of Judah. 23 But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this Passover was kept to the LORD in Jerusalem. 24 Moreover, Josiah put away the mediums and the necromancers and the household gods and the idols and all the abominations that were seen in the land ofJudah and in Jerusalem, that he might establish the words of the law that were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD. 2 s Before him there was no king like him, who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, ac cording to all the Law of Moses, nor did any like him arise after him. 26 Still the LORD did not turn from

a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, by the king's garden, and the Chaldeans were around the city. And they went in the direction of the Ara bah. s But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook him in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was scattered from him. 6 Then they captured the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, and they passed sentence on him. 7 They slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah be fore his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah and bound him in chains and took him to Babylon. 8 In the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month-that was the nine teenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon-Nebuzaradan, the captain of the bodyguard, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to Jeru salem. 9 And he burned the house of the LORD and the king's house and all

2 KINGS 25:20-27 who were found in the city; and the secretary of the commander of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the city. 20 And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah. 2 1 And the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was taken into exile out of its land. Gedaliah Made Governor of Judah
22 And over the people who re mained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, he appointed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, governor. 23 Now when all the captains and their men heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah governor, they came with their men to Geda liah at Mizpah, namely, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite. 24 And Gedaliah swore to them and their men, saying, "Do not be afraid because of the Chaldean officials. Live in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you:' 2s But in the seventh month, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the royal family, came with ten men and struck down Geda liah ana put him to death along with the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah. 26 Then all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces arose and went to Egypt, for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
Jehoiachin Released from Prison

And that place is called Perez-uzza 1 to this day. 12 And David was afraid of God that day, and he said, "How can I bring the ark of God home to me?" 13 So David did not take the ark home into the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 14 And the ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that he had.

1 CHRONICLES 1 6: 1 - 1 5 David dancing and celebrating, and she despised him in her heart. The Ark Placed in a Tent
16
And they brought in the ark of God and set it inside the tent that David had pitched for it, and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God. 2 And when Da vid had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD 3 and distributed to all Israel, both men and women, to each a loaf of bread, a portion of meat, 1 and a cake of raisins. 4 Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of the LORD, to invoke, to thank, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel. s Asaph was the chief, and second to him were Zechariah, Jeiel, Shemira moth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Bena iah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, who were to play harps and lyres; Asaph was to sound the cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests were to blow trumpets regularly before the ark of the covenant of God. 7 Then on that day David first appointed that thanks giving be sung to the LORD by Asaph and his brothers.

Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in h i s holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice! Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually! Remember the wondrous works that he has done, his miracles and the judgments he uttered, 0 offspring of Israel his servant, children of Jacob, his chosen ones! He is the LoRD our God; his judgments are in all the earth. Remember h i s covenant forever, the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

the covenant that he made with Abraham, his sworn promise to Isaac, which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant, saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, as your portion for an inheritance:' When you were few in number, of little account, and sojourners in it, wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people, he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their account, saying, "Touch not my anointed ones, do my prophets no harm!" Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Tell of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy are in his place. Ascribe to the LORD, 0 families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering and come before him! Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness; 1 tremble before him, all the earth; yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice, and let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns!" Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

also:
" Save us, 0 God of our salvation, and gather and deliver us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise. Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting!"
Then all the people said, "Amen!" and praised the LORD. Worsh i p Before the Ark 37
So David left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD to minister regularly before the ark as each day required, .>8 and also Obed-edom and his7 sixty-eight brothers, while Obed edom, the son of Jeduthun, and Ho sah were to be gatekeepers. 39 And he left Zadok the priest and his brothers the priests before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that was at Gibeon 40 to offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt of fering regularly morning and evening, to do all that is written in the Law of the LORD that he commanded Israel. 4 1 With them were Heman and Jedu thun and the rest of those chosen and expressly named to give thanks to the LORD, for his steadfast love endures forever. 42 Heman and Jeduthun had trumpets and cymbals for the music and instruments for sacred song. The sons of Jeduthun were appointed to the gate. 4 3 Then all the people departed each to his house, and David went home to bless his household. The LORD'S Covenant with David

Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you. 26 And now, 0 LORD, you are God, and you have promised this good thing to your servant. 27 Now you have been pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you, for it is you, 0 LORD, who have blessed, and it is blessed forever." David Defeats H i s Enemies
18
After this David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and he took Gath and its villages out of the hand of the Philistines. 2 And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute. 3 David also defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah-Hamath, as he went to set up his monument' at the river Euphrates. 4 And David took from him 1 ,000 chariots, 7,000 horsemen, and 20,000 foot soldiers. And David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but left enough for 1 00 chariots. s And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck down 22,000 men of the Syrians. 6 Then David put garrisons2 in Syria of Damascus, and the Syr ians became servants to David and brought tribute. And the LORD gave victory to David3 wherever he went. 7 And David took the shields of gold that were carried by the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to 1 Hebrew hand 2 Septuagint, Vulgate, 2 Samuel 8:6 (compare Syriac); Hebrew lacks garrisons J Hebrew the LORD saved David; also verse 1 3
1 CHRONICLES 1 8:8- 1 9:2 Jerusalem. s And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze. With it Solomon made the bronze sea and the pillars and the vessels of bronze. 9 When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated the whole army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, 1 0 he sent his son Hadoram to King David, to ask about his health and to bless him because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him; for Hadadezer had often been at war with Tau. And he sent all sorts of ar ticles of gold, of silver, and of bronze. 1 1 These also King David dedicated to the LORD, together with the silver and gold that he had carried off from all the nations, from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek. 12 And Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, killed 1 8,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. 13 Then he put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the LORD gave victory to David wherever he went. David's Ad m i n istration 1 4 So
David reigned over all Israel, and he administered justice and eq uity to all his people. 15 And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder; 1 6 and Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were priests; and Shavsha was secretary; 17 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were the chief officials in the service of the king.

Now after this Nahash the king of the Ammonites died, and his son reigned in his place. 2 And David said, "I will deal kindly with Hanun the son of Nahash, for his father dealt kindly with me." So David sent messengers to console him concerning his father. And Da vid's servants came to the land of

10 When Joab saw that the battle was set against him both in front and in the rear, he chose some of the best men of Israel and arrayed them against the Syrians. 1 1 The rest o f his men he put in the charge of Abishai his brother, and they were arrayed against the Ammonites. 1 2 And he said, "If the Syrians are too strong for

the Ammonites to Hanun to console him. 3 But the princes of the Ammon ites said to Hanun, "Do you think, because David has sent comforters to you, that he is honoring your father? Have not his servants come to you to search and to overthrow and to spy out the land?" 4 So Hanun took Da vid's servants and shaved them and cut off their garments in the middle, at their hips, and sent them away; s and they departed. When David was told concerning the men, he sent messengers to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, "Remain at Jericho until your beards have grown and then return:' 6 When the Ammonites saw that they had become a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent 1 ,000 talents 1 of silver to hire chariots and horsemen from Mesopotamia, from Aram-maacah, and from Zobah. 7 They hired 32,000 chariots and the king of Maacah with his army, who came and encamped before Medeba. And the Ammonites were mustered from their cities and came to battle. 8 When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of the mighty men. 9 And the Ammonites came out and drew up in battle array at the en trance of the city, and the kings who had come were by themselves in the open country.

Then Joab came to Jerusalem. 1 6 But when the Syrians saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent messengers and brought out the Syrians who were beyond the Euphrates, 1 with Shophach the com mander of the army of Hadadezer at their head. 17 And when it was told to David, he gathered all Israel together and crossed the Jordan and came to them and drew up his forces against them. And when David set the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him. 18 And the Syrians fled before Israel, and David killed of the Syrians the men of 7,000 chariots and 40,000 foot soldiers, and put to death also Shophach the commander of their army. 19 And when the ser vants of Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became subject to him. So the Syrians were not will ing to save the Ammonites anymore. The Capture of Rabbah
20
In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to bat tle, Joab led out the army and ravaged the country of the Ammonites and came and besieged Rabbah. But Da vid remained at Jerusalem. And Joab struck down Rabbah and overthrew it. 2 And David took the crown of their 1

4 And after this there arose war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Sippai, who was one of the descen dants of the giants, and the Philis tines were subdued. s And there was again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of Jair struck down Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Git tite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam. 6 And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was descended from the giants. 7 And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother, struck him down. s These were descended from the giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

Then Satan stood against Israel and incited David to number Israel. 2 so David said to Joab and the commanders of the army, "Go, number Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, and bring me a report, that I may know their number:' 3 But Joab said, "May the LORD add to his people a hundred times as many as they are! Are they not, my lord the king, all of them my lord's servants? Why then should my lord require this? Why should it be a cause of guilt for Israel?" 1 A talent was about 7 5 pounds or 34 kilograms 2Compare 2 Samuel 1 2: 3 1 ; Hebrew he sawed JCompare 2 Samuel 1 2 : 3 1 ; Hebrew saws

And he brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount. 3 And he brought out the people who were in it and set them to labor2 with saws and iron picks and axes.3 And thus David did to all the cities of the Ammonites.

the king's word prevailed against Joab. So Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came back to Jerusalem. s And Joab gave the sum of the numbering of the people to David. In all Israel there were l, 1 00,000 men who drew the sword, and in Judah 470,000 who drew the sword. 6 But he did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, for the king's com mand was abhorrent to Joab. 7 But God was displeased with this thing, and he struck Israel. 8 And David said to God, "I have sinned greatly in that I have done this thing. But now, please take away the iniquity of your servant, for I have acted very foolishly." 9 And the LORD spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying, 1 0 "Go and say to David, 'Thus says the LORD, Three things I offer you; choose one of them, that I may do it to you: " 1 1 So Gad came to David and said to him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Choose what you will: 12 either three years of famine, or three months of devasta tion by your foes while the sword of your enemies overtakes you, or else three days of the sword of the LORD, pestilence on the land, with the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.' Now decide what answer I shall return to him who sent me:' 1 3 Then David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Let me fall into the hand of the Lerno, for his mercy is very great, but do not let me fall into the hand of man:' 1 4 So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel, and 70,000 men of Israel fell. is And God sent the angel to Je rusalem to destroy it, but as he was

1 CHRONICLES 27:2 1 -34 Manasseh, Joel the s o n o f Pedaiah; 2 1 for the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechariah; for Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner; 22 for Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham. These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel. 23 David did not count those below twenty years of age, for the LORD had promised to make Israel as many as the stars of heaven. 24 Jo ab the son of Zeruiah began to count, but did not finish. Yet wrath came upon Israel for this, and the number was not en tered in the chronicles of King David. 2s Over the king's treasuries was Azmaveth the son of Adie!; and over the treasuries in the country, in the cities, in the villages, and in the tow ers, was Jonathan the son of Uzziah; 26 and over those who did the work of the field for tilling the soil was Ezri the son of Chelub; 27 and over the vineyards was Shimei the Ramathite; and over the produce of the vine yards for the wine cellars was Zabdi the Shiphmite. 2s Over the olive and sycamore trees in the Shephelah was Baal-hanan the Gederite; and over the stores of oil was Joash. 29 Over the herds that pastured in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite; over the herds in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai. 30 Over the camels was Obi! the Ishmaelite; and over the donkeys was Jehdeiah the Meronothite. Over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagrite. 31 All these were stewards of King David's property. 3 2 Jonathan, David's uncle, was a counselor, being a man of understand ing and a scribe. He and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni attended the king's sons. 33 Ahithophel was the king's counselor, and Hushai the Archite was the king's friend. 34 Ahithophel was succeeded by Jehoiada the son of Benaiah, and Abiathar. Joab was commander of the king's army.

David assembled at Jerusalem all the officials of Israel, the officials of the tribes, the officers of the divisions that served the king, the commanders of thousands, the com manders of hundreds, the stewards of all the property and livestock of the king and his sons, together with the palace officials, the mighty men and all the seasoned warriors. 2 Then King David rose to his feet and said: "Hear me, my brothers and my people. I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and for the footstool of our God, and I made preparations for building. 3 But God said to me, 'You may not build a house for my name, for you are a man of war and have shed blood.' 4 Yet the LORD God of Israel chose me from all my father's house to be king over Israel forever. For he chose Judah as leader, and in the house of Judah my father's house, and among my father's sons he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel. s And of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel. 6 He said to me, 'It is Solomon your son who shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father. 71 will establish his king dom forever if he continues strong in keeping my commandments and my rules, as he is today.' s Now therefore in the sight of all Israel, the assem bly of the LORD, and in the hearing of our God, observe and seek out all the commandments of the LORD your God, that you may possess this good land and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.

And David the king said to all the assembly, "Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is young and inexperienced, and the work is great, for the palace will not be for man but for the LORD God. 2 So I have provided for the house of my God, so far as I was able, the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, besides great quan tities of onyx and stones for setting, antimony, colored stones, all sorts of precious stones and marble. 3 More over, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God: 4 3,000 talents 1 of gold, tlf the gold of Ophir, and 7 ,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house,2 s and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself3 today to the LORD? " 6Then the leaders of fathers' houses made their freewill offerings, as did 1 A talent was about 75 pounds or 34 kilograms 2 Septuagint; Hebrew houses 30r ordaining himself; Hebrew filling his hand

In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you. is O Lo RD, the God ofAbraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep forever such pur poses and thoughts in the hearts of your people, and direct their hearts to ward you. 1 9 Grant to Solomon my son a whole heart that he may keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, performing all, and that he may build the palace for which I have made provision:' 2 D Then David said to all the assem bly, "Bless the LORD your God:' And all the assembly blessed the LORD, the God of their fathers, and bowed their heads and paid homage to the LORD and to the king. 21 And they of fered sacrifices to the LORD, and on the next day offered burnt offerings to the LORD, 1 ,000 bulls, 1 ,000 rams, and 1 ,000 lambs, with their drink of ferings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel. 22 And they ate and drank before the LORD on that day with great gladness. Solomon Anointed King
And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and they anointed him as prince for the LORD, and Zadok as priest. 23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king in place of David his father. And he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, pledged their al legiance to King Solomon. 2 s And the LORD made Solomon very great in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

So the people went away. 6 Then King Rehoboam took coun sel with the old men, 1 who had stood before Solomon his father while he was yet alive, saying, "How do you ad vise me to answer this people?" 7 And they said to him, "If you will be good to this people and please them and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.'' s But he abandoned the counsel that the old men gave him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him and stood before him. 9 And he said to them, "What do you advise that we answer this people who have said to me, 'Lighten the yoke that your father put on us'?'' 10 And the young men who had grown up with him said to him, "Thus shall you speak to the people who said to you, 'Your father made our yoke heavy, but you lighten it for us'; thus shall you say to them, 'My little finger is thicker than my father's thighs. 1 1 And now, whereas my father laid on you a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.'

sel of the old men, 14 King Rehoboam spoke to them according to the coun sel of the young men, saying, "My fa ther made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions." 1s so the king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of affairs brought about by God that the LORD might fulfill his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 16 And when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the peo ple answered the king, "What portion have we in David? We have no inheri tance in the son of Jesse. Each of you to your tents, 0 Israel! Look now to your own house, David:' So all Israel went to their tents. 1 7 But Rehoboam reigned over the people of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah. is Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, 1 who was taskmaster over the forced labor, and the people of Israel stoned him to death with stones. And King Re hoboam quickly mounted his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 19 So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.

2 CHRONICLES 11:5-19 they listened to the word of the LORD and returned and did not go against Jeroboam. s Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and he built cities for defense in Ju dah. 6 He built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa, 7 Beth-zur, Soco, Adullam, s Gath, Mareshah, Ziph, 9 Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah, 10 Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, fortified cities that are in Judah and in Benjamin. 11 He made the fortresses strong, and put com manders in them, and stores of food, oil, and wine. 12 And he put shields and spears in all the cities and made them very strong. So he held Judah and Benjamin. Priests and Levites Come to Jerusalem 1 3 And
the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel presented them selves to him from all places where they lived. 14 For the Levites left their common lands and their holdings and came to Judah and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons cast them out from serving as priests of the LORD, i s and he appointed his own priests for the high places and for the goat idols and for the calves that he had made. 16 And those who had set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came after them from all the tribes of Israel to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD, the God of their fathers. 1 7 They strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and for three years they made Re hoboam the son of Solomon secure, for they walked for three years in the way of David and Solomon.

7 At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, "Because you relied on the king of Syria, and did not rely on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Syria has escaped you. s Were not the Ethiopians and the Libyans a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet because you relied on the LORD, he gave them into your hand. 9 for the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless7 toward him. You have done foolishly in this, for from now on you will have wars:' 10 Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in the stocks in prison, for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Asa inflicted cruelties upon some of the people at the same time. 1 1 The acts of Asa, from first to last, are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet, and his disease became se vere. Yet even in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but sought help from physicians. 13 And Asa slept with his fathers, dying in the forty-first year of his reign. 14 They buried him in the tomb that he had cut for himself in the city of David. They laid him on a bier that had been filled with various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumer's art, and they made a very great fire in his honor.

2 CHRONICLES 17:3-13 Judah and set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that Asa his father had captured. 3 The LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the earlier ways of his fa ther David. He did not seek the Baals, 4 but sought the God of his father and walked in his commandments, and not according to the practices of Is rael. S Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand. And all Ju dah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat, and he had great riches and honor. 6 His heart was courageous in the ways of the LORD. And furthermore, he took the high places and the Ashe rim out of Judah. 7 In the third year of his reign he sent his officials, Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah; s and with them the Levites, Shemaiah, Netha niah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah; and with these Levites, the priests Elishama and Jehoram. 9 And they taught in Judah, having the Book of the Law of the LORD with them. They went about through all the cities of Judah and taught among the people. IO And the fear of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat. 1 1 Some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and silver for tribute, and the Arabians also brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats. 12 And Jehoshaphat grew steadily greater. He built in Ju dah fortresses and store cities, 13 and he had large supplies in the cities of

2 CHRONICLES 18:7-16 here another prophet of the LORD of whom we may inquire?" 7 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil.'' And Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say so." 8 Then the king of Israel summoned an offi cer and said, "Bring quickly Micaiah the son of Imlah.'' 9 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting on their thrones, arrayed in their robes. And they were sitting at the threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets were prophesying be fore them. lo And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made for himself horns of iron and said, "Thus says the LORD, 'With these you shall push the Syrians until they are destroyed.' " 1 1 And all the prophets prophesied so and said, "Go up to Ramoth-gilead and tri umph. The LORD will give it into the hand of the king.'' 12 And the messenger who went to summon Micaiah said to him, "Be hold, the words of the prophets with one accord are favorable to the king. Let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably.'' 13 But Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, what my God says, that I will speak.'' 1 4 And when he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" And he answered, "Go up and triumph; they will be given into your hand.'' 15 But the king said to him, "How many times shall I make you swear that you speak to me noth ing but the truth in the name of the LORD?" 1 6 And he said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd.

Asheroth out of the land, and have set your heart to seek God." 4 Jehoshaphat lived at Jerusalem. And he went out again among the people, from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back to the LORD, the God of their fathers. s He appointed judges in the land in all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city, 6 and said to the judges, "Consider what you do, for you judge not for man but for the LORD. He is with you in giving judg ment. 7 Now then, let the fear of the LORD be upon you. Be careful what you do, for there is no injustice with the LORD our God, or partiality or taking bribes:' s Moreover, in Jerusalem Jehosha phat appointed certain Levites and priests and heads of families of Israel, to give judgment for the LORD and to decide disputed cases. They had their seat at Jerusalem. 9 And he charged them: "Thus you shall do in the fear of the LORD, in faithfulness, and with your whole heart: 1 0 whenever a case comes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, concerning blood shed, law or commandment, statutes or rules, then you shall warn them, that they may not incur guilt before the LORD and wrath may not come upon you and your brothers. Thus you shall do, and you will not incur guilt. 11 And behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the governor of the house of Judah, in all the king's matters, and the Levites will serve you as officers. Deal courageously, and may the LORD be with the upright!" 1

2 CHRONICLES 20: 3 - 1 2 came and told Jehoshaphat, "A great multitude is coming against you from Edom, 1 from beyond the sea; and, behold, they are in Hazazon -tamar" (that is, Engedi). 3 Then Jehoshaphat was afraid and set his face to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast through out all Judah. 4 And Judah assembled to seek help from the LORD; from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD. s And Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court, 6 and said, "O LORD, God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? You rule over all the king doms of the nations. In your hand are power and might, so that none is able to withstand you. 7 Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend? s And they have lived in it and have built for you in it a sanctuary for your name, saying, 9 'If disaster comes upon us, the sword, judgment,2 or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house and before you-for your name is in this house-and cry out to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save: 10 And now behold, the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel in vade when they came from the land of Egypt, and whom they avoided and did not destroy- 11 behold, they reward us by coming to drive us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit. 12 0 our God, will you not execute judgment on them?

and the king that they should be the LORD's people. I7 Then all the people went to the house of Baal and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces, and they killed Mat tan the priest of Baal before the altars. i s And Jehoiada posted watchmen for the house of the LORD under the direction of the Levitical priests and the Levites whom David had orga nized to be in charge of the house of the LORD, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD, as it is written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and with sing ing, according to the order of David. 1 9 He stationed the gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the LORD so that no one should enter who was in any way unclean. 20 And he took the captains, the nobles, the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD, marching through the upper gate to the king's house. And they set the king on the royal throne. 21 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been put to death with the sword.

he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba. 2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest. 3 Jehoiada got for him two wives, and he had sons and daughters. 4 After this Joash decided to re store the house of the LORD. s And he gathered the priests and the Le vites and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you act quicklY:' But the Levites did not act quickly. 6 So the I Spelled fehoash in 2 Kings 1 2 : I

'
the-priests
Ahaz's Idolatry 22 In the time of his distress he became yet more faithless to the LORD-this same King Ahaz. 23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus that had defeated him and said, "Be cause the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me:' But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel. 24 And Ahaz gathered together the vessels of the house of God and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and he shut up the doors of the house of the LORD, and he made himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem. 2s In every city of Judah he made high places to make offerings to other gods, provok ing to anger the LORD, the God of his fathers. 26Now the rest of his acts and all his ways, from first to last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 27 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, in Jerusalem, for they did not bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
29
Hezekiah Reigns in Judah Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah 1 the daughter of Zechariah. 2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. Hezekiah Cleanses the Temple 3 In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the LORD and repaired them. 4 He brought in the priests and the Levites and assembled them in the square on the east s and 1 Spelled Abi in 2 Kings 1 8:2

2 CHRONICLES 29:5-15 said to them, "Hear me, Levites! Now consecrate yourselves, and consecrate the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers, and carry out the filth from the Holy Place. 6 For our fathers have been unfaithful and have done what was evil in the sight of the LORD our God. They have forsaken him and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the LORD and turned their backs. 7 They also shut the doors of the vestibule and put out the lamps and have not burned incense or offered burnt offerings in the Holy Place to the God of Israel. s Therefore the wrath of the LORD came on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has made them an object of horror, of astonishment, and of hissing, as you see with your own eyes. 9 For behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this. JO Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, in order that his fierce anger may turn away from us. 1 1 My sons, do not now be negli gent, for the LORD has chosen you to stand in his presence, to minister to him and to be his ministers and make offerings to him." 1 2 Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohath ites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershon ites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah; 13 and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah; t4 and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.

Passover Celebrated Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem to keep the Pass over to the LORD, the God of Israel. 2 For the king and his princes and all the assembly in Jerusalem had taken counsel to keep the Passover in the second month- 3 for they could not keep it at that time because the priests had not consecrated themselves in sufficient number, nor had the people assembled in Jerusalem- 4 and the plan seemed right to the king and all the assembly. s So they decreed to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come and keep the Passover to the LORD, the God of Is rael, at Jerusalem, for they had not kept it as often as prescribed. 6 So cou riers went throughout all Israel and Ju dah with letters from the king and his princes, as the king had commanded,

Shethar-bozenai, and your7 associates the governors who are in the province Beyond the River, keep away. 7 Let the work on this house of God alone. Let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its site. 8 Moreover, I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the Jews for the rebuilding of this house of God. The cost is to be paid to these men in full and with out delay from the royal revenue, the tribute of the province from Beyond the River. 9 And whatever is needed bulls, rams, or sheep for burnt offer ings to the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, or oil, as the priests at Jerusalem require-let that be given to them day by day without fail, 10 that they may offer pleasing sacrifices to the God of heaven and pray for the !ife of the king and his sons. 1 1 Also I make a de cree that if anyone alters this edict, a beam shall be pulled out of his house, and he shall be impaled on it, and his house shall be made a dunghill. 1 2 May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow any king or people who shall put out a hand to alter this, or to destroy this house of God that is in Jerusalem. I Darius make a decree; let it be done with all diligence:' The Temple Fin ished and Dedicated
13 Then, according to the word sent by Darius the king, Tattenai, the governor of the province Beyond the River, Shethar-bozenai, and their as sociates did with all diligence what Darius the king had ordered. 14 And the elders of the Jews built and pros pered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo.

chief priest- 6 this Ezra went up from Babylonia. He was a scribe skilled in the Law of Moses that the LORD, the God of Israel, had given, and the king granted him all that he asked, for the hand of the LORD his God was on him. 7 And there went up also to Jerusa lem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king, some of the people of Israel, and some of the priests and Levites, the singers and gatekeepers, and the temple servants. B And Ezra 1 came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king. 9 For on the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylonia, and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, for the good hand of his God was on him. 10 For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. 1 1 This is a copy of the letter that

EZRA 9: 1 3- 1 0:6 of the land and leave it for an inheri tance to your children forever: 1 3 And after all that has come upon us for our evil deeds and for our great guilt, see ing that you, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserved and have given us such a remnant as this, 14 shall we break your com mandments again and intermarry with the peoples who practice these abominations? Would you not be an gry with us until you consumed us, so that there should be no remnant, nor any to escape? i s 0 LORD, the God of Israel, you are just, for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is to day. Behold, we are before you in our guilt, for none can stand before you because of this:' The People Confess Their Sin
10
While Ezra prayed and made confession, weeping and cast ing himself down before the house of God, a very great assembly of men, women, and children, gathered to him out of Israel, for the people wept bitterly. 2 And Shecaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, addressed Ezra: "We have broken faith with our God and have married foreign women from the peoples of the land, but even now there is hope for Israel in spite of this. 3 Therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all these wives and their children, ac cording to the counsel of my lord 1 and of those who tremble at the com mandment of our God, and let it be done according to the Law. 4 Arise, for it is your task, and we are with you; be strong and do it:' s Then Ezra arose and made the leading priests and Levites and all Israel take an oath that they would do as had been said. So they took the oath. 6 Then Ezra withdrew from be fore the house of God and went to the chamber of Jehohanan the son of 1 Or
of the Lord

NEHEMIAH 2:8- 1 6 the king, let letters be given me to the governors of the province Beyond the River, that they may let me pass through until I come to Judah, s and a letter to Asaph, the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the fortress of the temple, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall occupy:' And the king granted me what I asked, for the good hand of my God was upon me. Nehemiah Inspects Jerusalem's Walls
9 Then I came to the governors of the province Beyond the River and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent with me officers of the army and horsemen. 10 But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite servant heard this, it displeased them greatly that someone had come to seek the welfare of the people of Israel. 11 So I went to Jerusalem and was there three days. 12 Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me. And I told no one what my God had put into my heart to do for Jerusalem. There was no animal with me but the one on which I rode. 13 I went out by night by the Valley Gate to the Dragon Spring and to the Dung Gate, and I inspected the walls of Jerusalem that were bro ken down and its gates that had been destroyed by fire. 14 Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and to the King's Pool, but there was no room for the animal that was under me to pass. 1 5 Then I went up in the night by the valley and inspected the wall, and I turned back and entered by the Valley Gate, and so returned. 16 And the of ficials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, and I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles,

wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work. 7 1 But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the re pairing of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and that the breaches were beginning to be closed, they were very angry. s And they all plot ted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and to cause confusion in it. 9 And we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night. 10 In Judah it was said,2 "The strength of those who bear the bur dens is failing. There is too much rubble. By ourselves we will not be able to rebuild the wall:' 11 And our enemies said, "They will not know or see till we come among them and kill them and stop the work:' 12 At that time the Jews who lived near them came from all directions and said to us ten times, "You must return to us:'3 1 3 So in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in open places, I stationed the people by their clans, with their swords, their spears, and their bows. 1 4 And I looked and arose and said to the nobles and to the offi cials and to the rest of the people, "Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes."

NEHEMIAH 4: 1 0 [ 1 6] -5:4 that day on, half of my servants worked on construction, and half held the spears, shields, bows, and coats of mail. And the leaders stood behind the whole house of Judah, 17 who were building on the wall. Those who carried burdens were loaded in such a way that each labored on the work with one hand and held his weapon with the other. i s And each of the builders had his sword strapped at his side while he built. The man who sounded the trumpet was beside me. 1 9 And I said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, "The work is great and widely spread, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another. 20 In the place where you hear the sound of the trum pet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us:' 2 1 So we labored at the work, and half of them held the spears from the break of dawn until the stars came out. 22 I also said to the people at that time, "Let every man and his servant pass the night within Jerusalem, that they may be a guard for us by night and may labor by day." 23 So neither I nor my brothers nor my servants nor the men of the guard who followed me, none of us took off our clothes; each kept his weapon at his right hand. 7

from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twen tieth year to the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, neither I nor my brothers ate the food allowance of the governor. lS The for mer governors who were before me laid heavy burdens on the people and took from them for their daily ration 1 forty shekels2 of silver. Even their ser vants lorded it over the people. But I did not do so, because of the fear of God. 1 6 I also persevered in the work on this wall, and we acquired no land, and all my servants were gathered there for the work. 17 Moreover, there were at my table 1 50 men, Jews and officials, besides those who came to us from the nations that were around us. i s Now what was prepared at my expense3 for each day was one ox and six choice sheep and birds, and every ten days all kinds of wine in abundance. Yet for all this I did not demand the food allowance of the governor, because the service was too heavy on this people. 1 9 Remember for my good, 0 my God, all that I have done for this people.

Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to any one who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength:' 1 1 So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, "Be quiet, for this day is holy; do not be grieved."

surrounding Jerusalem and from the villages of the Netophathites; 29 also from Beth-gilgal and from the region of Geba and Azmaveth, for the sing ers had built for themselves villages around Jerusalem. 30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and they purified the people and the gates and the wall. 31 Then I brought the leaders of Ju dah up onto the wall and appointed two great choirs that gave thanks. One went to the south on the wall to the Dung Gate. 32 And after them went Hoshaiah and half of the leaders of Judah, 33 and Azariah, Ezra, Meshul lam, 34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, and Jeremiah, 35 and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Micaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph; 36 and his relatives, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God. And Ezra the scribe went before them. 37 At the Fountain Gate they went up straight before them by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, to the Water Gate on the east. 38 The other choir of those who gave thanks went to the north, and I followed them with half of the people, on the wall, above the Tower of the Ovens, to the Broad Wall, 39 and above the Gate of Ephraim, and by the Gate of Yeshanah, 1 and by the Fish Gate and the Tower of Hananel and the Tower of the Hundred, to the Sheep Gate; and they came to a halt at the Gate of the Guard. 40 So both choirs of those who gave thanks stood in the house of God, and I and half of the officials with me; 4 1 and the priests Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elio enai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets; 42 and Maaseiah, Shemaiah, 1 Or

44 On that day men were appointed over the storerooms, the contribu tions, the firstfruits, and the tithes, to gather into them the portions re quired by the Law for the priests and for the Levites according to the fields of the towns, for Judah rejoiced over the priests and the Levites who min istered. 45 And they performed the service of their God and the service of purification, as did the singers and the gatekeepers, according to the command of David and h is son Solo mon. 46 for long ago in the days of David and Asaph there were directors of the singers, and there were songs I of praise and thanksgiving to God. 47 And all Israel in the days of Zerub babel and in the days of Nehemiah gave the daily portions for the sing ers and the gatekeepers; and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
1 3 On that day . they read from
Nehemiah's Final Reforms
the Book of Moses in the hearing of the people. And in it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever enter the assem bly of God, 2 for they did not meet the people of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them-yet our God turned the curse into a blessing. 3 As soon as the people heard the law, they sepa rated from Israel all those of foreign descent. 1 Now before this, Eliashib the priest, who was appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, and who was related to Tobiah, ' O r lcudcr.<

s prepared for Tobiah a large chamber where they had previously put the grain offering, the frankincense, the vessels, and the tithes of grain, wine, and oil, which were given by com mandment to the Levites, singers, and gatekeepers, and the contributions for the priests. 6 While this was taking place, I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I went to the king. And after some time I asked leave of the king 7 and came to Jerusalem, and I then discovered the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, prepar ing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. s And I was very angry, and I threw all the household furniture of Tobiah out of the cham ber. 9 Then I gave orders, and they cleansed the chambers, and I brought back there the vessels of the house of God, with the grain offering and the frankincense. 1 0 1 also found out that the portions of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the sing ers, who did the work, had fled each to his field. 1 1 So I confronted the of ficials and said, "Why is the house of God forsaken?" And I gathered them
together and set them in their sta tions. 1 2 Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain, wine, and oil into the storehouses. 13 And I appointed as treasurers over the storehouses Shele miah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites, and as their assistant Hanan the son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for they were con sidered reliable, and their duty was to distribute to their brothers. 1 4 Re member me, 0 my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God and for his service. i s I n those days I saw i n Judah
NEHEMIAH 1 3 : 1 6-24 people treading winepresses o n the Sabbath, and bringing in heaps of grain and loading them on donkeys, and also wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of loads, which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I warned them on the day when they sold food. 16 Tyrians also, who lived in the city, brought in fish and all kinds of goods and sold them on the Sabbath to the people of Judah, in Jerusalem itself! !? Then I confronted the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this evil thing that you are doing, profaning the Sabbath day? i s Did not your fathers act in this way, and did not our God bring all this disasterl on us and on this city? Now you are bringing more wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath:' 19 As soon as it began to grow dark
at the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut and gave orders that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. And I stationed some of my servants at the gates, that no load might be brought in on the Sabbath day. 20Then the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares lodged outside Je rusalem once or twice. 21 But I warned them and said to them, "Why do you lodge outside the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you:' From that time on they did not come on the Sabbath. 22 Then I commanded the Levites that they should purify them selves and come and guard the gates, to keep the Sabbath day holy. Remem ber this also in my favor, 0 my God, and spare me according to the great ness of your steadfast love.
23 In those days also I saw the Jews who had married women of Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab. 24 And half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod, and they could not speak I The Hebrew word can mean evil, harm, or disaster, depending on the context

the language of Judah, but only the language of each people. 2s And I confronted them and cursed them and beat some of them and pulled out their hair. And I made them take an oath in the name of God, saying, "You shall not give your daughters to their sons, or take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. 26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin on account of such women? Among the many nations there was no king like him,
and he was beloved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless, foreign women made even him to sin. 27 Shall we then listen to you and do all this great evil and act treacherously against our God by marrying foreign women?" 2 s And one of the sons of Jehoiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was the son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite. Therefore I chased him from me. 29 Remember them, 0 my God, because they have desecrated the priesthood and the covenant of the priesthood and the Levites. 30 Thus I cleansed them from ev erything foreign, and I established the duties of the priests and Levites, each in his work; 31 and I provided for the wood offering at appointed times, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, 0 my God, for good.

The King's Banquets
Now in the days of Ahasuerus, the Ahasuerus who reigned from India to Ethiopia over 127 provinces, 2 in those days when King Ahasu erus sat on his royal throne in Susa, the citadel, 3 in the third year of his reign he gave a feast for all his offi cials and servants. The army of Persia and Media and the nobles and gov ernors of the provinces were before him, 4 while he showed the riches of his royal glory and the splendor and pomp of his greatness for many days, 1 80 days. s And when these days were completed, the king gave for all the people present in Susa the citadel, both great and small, a feast lasting for seven days in the court of the gar den of the king's palace. 6 There were white cotton curtains and violet hang ings fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rods I and marble pillars, and also couches of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of por phyry, marble, mother-of-pearl and precious stones. 7 Drinks were served in golden vessels, vessels of different kinds, and the royal wine was lavished according to the bounty of the king. s And drinking was according to this edict: "There is no compulsion:' For the king had given orders to all the staff of his palace to do as each man desired. 9 Queen Vashti also gave a feast for the women in the palace that belonged to King Ahasuerus. Queen Vashti's Refusal 10
On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha and Abag tha, Zethar and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus, 11 to bring Queen I

Haman Plots Against the Jews
After these things King Ahas uerus promoted Haman the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, and advanced him and set his throne above all the officials who were with him. 2 And all the king's servants who were at the king's gate bowed down and paid homage to Haman, for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai did not bow down or pay homage. 3 Then the king's ser vants who were at the king's gate said to Mordecai, "Why do you transgress the king's command?" 4 And when they spoke to him day after day and he would not listen to them, they told Haman, in order to see whether Mordecai's words would stand, for he had told them that he was a Jew. s And when Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow down or pay homage to him, Haman was filled with fury. 6 But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone. So, as they had made known to him the people of Mordecai, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus. 7 In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, they cast lots) before Haman day after day; and they cast it month after month till the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar. s Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom.

ESTHER 4: 10-5:2 spoke to Hathach and commanded him to go to Mordecai and say, 11 ''All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that if any man or woman goes to the king inside the inner court without being called, there is but one law-to be put to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter so that he may live. But as for me, I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days:' 1 2 And they told Mordecai what Esther had said. 1 3 Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, "Do not think to yourself that in the king's pal ace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. 1 4 For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this ? " i s Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai, J 6 "Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish:' 1 7 Mordecai then went away and did everything as Esther had ordered him.

Esther Prepares a Banquet

ESTHER 5:3- 12 golden scepter that was i n his hand. Then Esther approached and touched the tip of the scepter. 3 And the king said to her, "What is it, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given you, even to the half of my kingdom:' 4 And Esther said, "If it please the king, let the king and Haman come today to a feast that I have prepared for the king:' s Then the king said, "Bring Haman quickly, so that we may do as Esther has asked." So the king and Haman came to the feast that Es ther had prepared. 6 And as they were drinking wine after the feast, the king said to Esther, "What is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled:' 7 Then Esther answered, "My wish and my request is: s If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my wish and fulfill my request, let the king and Haman come to the feast that I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said:' Haman Plans to Hang Mordecai
9 And Haman went out that day joyful and glad of heart. But when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he neither rose nor trembled before him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai. 1 0 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home, and he sent and brought his friends and his wife Zeresh. 11 And Haman recounted to them the splen dor of his riches, the number of his sons, all the promotions with which the king had honored him, and how he had advanced him above the of ficials and the servants of the king. 12 Then Haman said, "Even Queen Es ther let no one but me come with the king to the feast she prepared. And
ESTHER 5: 13-6:8 tomorrow also I am invited by her together with the king. u Yet all this is worth nothing to me, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate:' 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows I fifty cubits2 high be made, and in the morning tell the king to have Morde cai hanged upon it. Then go joyfully with the king to the feast:' This idea pleased Haman, and he had the gal lows made.

ESTHER 8:9- 1 5 b e revoked." 9The king's scribes were summoned at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty third day. And an edict was written, according to all that Mordecai com manded concerning the Jews, to the satraps and the governors and the officials of the provinces from India to Ethiopia, 127 provinces, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, and also to the Jews in their script and their language. 10 And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed it with the king's signet ring. Then he sent the letters by mounted couriers riding on swift horses that were used in the king's service, bred from the royal stud, 11 saying that the king al lowed the Jews who were in every city to gather and defend their lives, to destroy, to kill, and to annihilate any armed force of any people or prov ince that might attack them, children and women included, and to plunder their goods, 1 2 on one day throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar. 1 3 A copy of what was written was to be issued as a decree in every prov ince, being publicly displayed to all peoples, and the Jews were to be ready on that day to take vengeance on their enemies. 1 4 So the couriers, mounted on their swift horses that were used in the king's service, rode out hur riedly, urged by the king's command. And the decree was issued in Susa the citadel. i s Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown 1 and a robe of fine linen and 1 O r headdress

ESTHER 9: 1 1- 1 9 sons o f Haman the son of Hammeda tha, the enemy of the Jews, but they laid no hand on the plunder. 11 That very day the number of those killed in Susa the citadel was re ported to the king. 1 2 And the king said to Queen Esther, "In Susa the citadel the Jews have killed and destroyed 500 men and also the ten sons of Haman. What then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now what is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what further is your request? It shall be fulfilled:' 1 3 And Esther said, "If it please the king, let the Jews who are in Susa be allowed tomorrow also to do according to this day's edict. And let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows:' 1 1 4 So the king commanded this to be done. A decree was issued in Susa, and the ten sons of Haman were hanged. is The Jews who were in Susa gathered also on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar and they killed 300 men in Susa, but they laid no hands on the plunder. 1 6 Now the rest of the Jews who were in the king's provinces also gathered to defend their lives, and got relief from their enemies and killed 75,000 of those who hated them, but they laid no hands on the plunder. 1 7 This was on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, and on the fourteenth day they rested and made that a day of feasting and gladness. IB But the Jews who were in Susa gathered on the thirteenth day and on the fourteenth, and rested on the fifteenth day, making that a day of feasting and gladness.

ESTHER 9:28 - 1 0:3 to what was written and at the time appointed every year, 2s that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, in every clan, province, and city, and that these days of Purim should never fall into disuse among the Jews, nor should the commemoration of these days cease among their descendants. 29 Then Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew gave full written authority, confirming this second letter about Purim. 30 Letters were sent to all the Jews, to the 1 27 provinces of the kingdom of Ahas uerus, in words of peace and truth, 31 that these days of Purim should be observed at their appointed seasons, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Es ther obligated them, and as they had obligated themselves and their off spring, with regard to their fasts and their lamenting. 3 2 The command of Queen Esther confirmed these prac tices of Purim, and it was recorded in writing. The G reatness of Mordecai
10
King Ahasuerus imposed tax on the land and on the coast lands of the sea. 2 And all the acts of his power and might, and the full ac count of the high honor of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3 For Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus, and he was great among the Jews and popular with the multitude of his brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and spoke peace to all his people.

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job, and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil. 2 There were born to him seven sons and three daughters. 3 He possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east. 4 His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. s And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and consecrate them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my children have sinned, and cursed 1 God in their hearts:' Thus Job did continually.

Satan answered the and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it:' 3 And the said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you incited me against him to destroy him without reason." 4 Then Satan answered the and said, "Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life. s But stretch out your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face:'

JOB 2:6-3:4 6 A n d t h e LORD said t o Satan, "Behold, he is i n your hand; only spare h i s life:' 7 So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. s And he took a piece of broken pottery with which to scrape himself while he sat in the ashes. 9 Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and die:' 1 0 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the fool ish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?" 1 In all this Job did not sin with his lips. Job's Three Friends
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naama thite. They made an appointment together to come to show him sympathy and comfort him. 1 2 And when they saw him from a distance, they did not recognize him. And they raised their voices and wept, and they tore their robes and sprinkled dust on their heads toward heaven. 13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.
3
Job Laments His Birth
After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth. 2 And Job said:
3 " Let the day perish on which I was born, and the night that said, 'A man is conceived.' 4 Let that day be darkness! ' Or disaster; also verse 1 1

Job Continues: My Life Has No Hope
" Has not man a hard service on earth, and are not his days like the days of a hired hand? Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hired hand who looks for his wages, 3 so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me. 4 When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn. s My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh. 6 My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle and come to their end without hope.

JOB 9:25- 1 0:8 if it is not he, who then is it? 2s
" My days are swifter than a runner; they flee away; they see no good. 2 6 They go by like skiffs of reed, like an eagle swooping on the prey. 27 If I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and be of good cheer; 2 s I become afraid of all my suffering, for I know you will not hold me innocent. 29 I shall be condemned; why then do I labor in vain? 3 0 If I wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye, 3 1 yet you will plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me. 3 2 For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together. 33 There is no 1 arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both. 34 Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me. 35 Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.
Job Continues: A Plea to God

"I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why you contend against me. Does it seem good to you to oppress, to despise the work of your hands and favor the designs of the wicked? Have you eyes of flesh? Do you see as man sees? Are your days as the days of man, or your years as a man's years, that you seek out my iniquity and search for my sin, although you know that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of your hand? Your hands fashioned and made me, and now you have destroyed me altogether.

JOB 1 1:5- 12:2 s 6
But oh, that God would speak and open his lips to you, and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. I Know then that God exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.
7
" Can you find out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limit of the Almighty? s It is higher than heaven2-what can you do? Deeper than Sheol-what can you know? 9 Its measure is longer than the earth and broader than the sea. 10 If he passes through and imprisons and summons the court, who can turn him back? 11 For he knows worthless men; when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it? 1 2 But a stupid man will get understanding when a wild donkey's colt is born a man! 13
" If you prepare your heart, you will stretch out your hands toward him. 1 4 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, and let not injustice dwell in your tents. ts Surely then you will lift up your face without blemish; you will be secure and will not fear. 1 6 You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away. 1 7 And your life will be brighter than the noonday; its darkness will be like the morning. 18 And you will feel secure, because there is hope; you will look around and take your rest in security. 1 9 You will lie down, and none will make you afraid; many will court your favor. 20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail; all way of escape will be lost to them, and their hope is to breathe their last:'

JOB 15:22- 16:3 in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him. He does not believe that he will return out of darkness, and he is marked for the sword. He wanders abroad for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that a day of darkness is ready at his hand; distress and anguish terrify him; they prevail against him, like a king ready for battle. Because he has stretched out his hand against God and defies the Almighty, running stubbornly against him with a thickly bossed shield; because he has covered his face with his fat and gathered fat upon his waist and has lived in desolate cities, in houses that none should inhabit, which were ready to become heaps of ruins; he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure, nor will his possessions spread over the earth; 7 he will not depart from darkness; the flame will dry up his shoots, and by the breath of his mouth he will depart. Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself, for emptiness will be his payment. It will be paid in full before his time, and his branch will not be green. He will shake off his unripe grape like the vine, and cast off his blossom like the olive tree. For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of bribery. They conceive trouble and give birth to evil, and their womb prepares deceit:'

and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me? Surely now God has worn me out; he has 1 made desolate all my company. And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me, and my leanness has risen up against me; it testifies to my face. He has torn me in his wrath and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me. Men have gaped at me with their mouth; they have struck me insolently on the cheek; they mass themselves together against me . God gives me up to the ungodly and casts me into the hands of the wicked. I was at ease, and he broke me apart; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target; his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground. He breaks me with breach upon breach; he runs upon me like a warrior. I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin and have laid my strength in the dust. My face is red with weeping, and on my eyelids is deep darkness, although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure.

Bildad Speaks: God Punishes the Wicked
18
T en Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 " How long will you hunt for words?
Consider, and then we will speak. 3 Why are we counted as cattle? Why are we stupid in your sight? 4 You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you, or the rock be removed out of its place? s
" Indeed, the light of the wicked is put out, and the flame of his fire does not shine. 6 The light is dark in his tent, and his lamp above him is put out. 7 His strong steps are shortened, and his own schemes throw him down. s For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walks on its mesh. 9 A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare lays hold of him. 1 0 A rope is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him in the path. 1 1 Terrors frighten him on every side, and chase him at his heels. 1 2 His strength is famished, and calamity is ready for his stumbling. 13 It consumes the parts of his skin; the firstborn of death consumes his limbs. 1 4 He is torn from the tent in which he trusted and is brought to the king of terrors. i s In his tent dwells that which is none of his; sulfur is scattered over his habitation. 1 6 His roots dry up beneath, and his branches wither above. 17 His memory perishes from the earth, and he has no name in the street. i s He is thrust from light into darkness, and driven out of the world. 1 9 He has no posterity or progeny among his people, and no survivor where he used to live. 20 They of the west are appalled at his day, and horror seizes them of the east.
